I dont have usb headphones to test. But my Bluetooth and wired headphones both are working really amazing!

GSam currently doesnt work. You can try wakelock detector with adb but just ignore the phone awake percentage. It will show you the app usage. And on a sidenote, manytimes this battery monitoring becomes the biggest cause of battery drain. Be aware of that.

The best thing about removing navigation gesture is you can use custom launchers properly, back to my favorite launcher

for me too White via Torch QuickSettings icon, but for Torch i use HW button hotkey set via (excelent) ButtonMapper and this work fine as yellow light ;)

i don't have USB headphones/speakers, but you can try check in "Developer Settings" option "Disable USB audio routing"

for battery drain, although in DP4 is problematic (in previous DP2+June) BackgroundActivityManager gone from settings, service is still here, then you can try same workaround, info here and here...

for showing what proces eat cpu, you can try run "top" via adb from pc:

adb shell top

I wonder why would Nokia remove the option to select gesture nav ,one plus 6 as well ?
[Nokia 7 Plus Questions & Answers] k3dar7:
i think not mentioned already... DP4 have:

- new option for simpler disabled animation (Settings/Accessibility/RemoveAnimations (this disable all 3 option as in DeveloperSettings))

- (QuckStep) P Recent Apps now with 3rd party launchers not show "bottom icons dock" and in list of recent windows is not(Hurrah!) showing (annoying/halftrasparent)QuickStep self window

- with XDA Navigation Gesture now work gesture set to "Previous Apps"

- in NovaLauncher is now posible set "Screen Lock Method" (usable (for me) for settings DoubleTap on Home to lcd off) to "Accessibility", before need set "Simulate via BlackScreen + 5s timeout" or use "Device Admin" with disallowing Fingerprint unlock)

How to roll back to June security patch. It's rolling back to April patch and I am stuck at developer preview
[Nokia 7 Plus Questions & Answers] RKXranger:
Hello guys

After rolling back to android 8.1.0 from android p beta 3 am stuck with April security patch .How can I get the July security update for my Nokia 7 plus.
[Nokia 7 Plus Questions & Answers] grubber24:
For now, the battery seems to be fine. Just like we had in DP2 i mean. I can still churn out a day with around 6 hours SOT with the battery manager managing apps automatically. Still, have you tried this? Is it helping you so far?
[Nokia 7 Plus Questions & Answers] grubber24:
There seems to be a bug with the battery manager. If i turn it off and full charge the device, it seems to turn on automatically when i remove the charging cable. Not that its damaging, but just wanted to confirm the bug.
[Nokia 7 Plus Questions & Answers] Brotuck:
To sum my experiences:

- Ota update to Android P works, but wipes user-data, sideloading does not

- Ota downgrade to Oreo works but leaves users stuck at April security patch

- Gestures are back to the "old" way

- Some minor issues with icons 4G/LTE

- Device uncertified in play store (some apps refuse to work)

- Battery usage is back to Oreo levels after a day or two

- Feedback option is added and cannot be removed

- Bluetooth works better then in Oreo (car connection)

- User experience is good and stable

- Navigation menu is old style again (prefer it this way)

- Recent apps can be closed all at once

- Always on display is available

- Display brightness is working properly (automatic adjustment)

- SD card now works as expected, can be used with the stock camera

- Stock camera works fine, except OZO with video recording

- No option to switch back and recent apps (please add)

Happy with this release, suitable as a daily driver.

Very curious when the next update arrives (please update more often!)

Coming from a Samsung 8+ where i could switch this in the settings, i really miss it.

I did NOT test the ADB options in android P, i do not want to reinstall again now if it fails....

I searched all secure and non secure settings in adb no mention of gesture nav ,last build it was

sysui_nav_gesture_allow=1

Cannot find anything like that here

You can pull the settings by

adb shell settings list secure
adb shell settings list system

XDA gesture app works fine but a little laggy

PS: careful with the app instructions if you are gonna hide the navbar you need to re enable it first or you will be stuck with no nav at all (true story)?

does anyone have the patched boot image for the DP4 (beta 3)?
[Nokia 7 Plus Questions & Answers] Sanjayrao20:
Hey guys,

I just installed the latest Android p beta(beta 3)

I have some issues:

1) there is no gesture bar or theres no option to enable it

2) i keep getting an ota update to roll back to Oreo.

Please help me resolve these issues. Also any idea on the next beta?
[Nokia 7 Plus Questions & Answers] CsabaZz:
1) I installed DP2 because of this issue. It is a major drawback to me.

2) I assume you requires the rollback via OTA. I keep getting DP3 via OTA, but since I disabled auto-update in Developer Settings, it does not disturb me with the unwanted OTA.
[Nokia 7 Plus Questions & Answers] Sanjayrao20:
If i disable auto update, will it stop me from getting dp5?

Only good for trying swipe controls. No new P features

I was disappointed after installing the update. I was excited thinking that I will see all the cool new features like Digital Wellbeing, control auto-rotate. None of those.

Downsides- it looks like a patch on top of android nougat with all the sea green shades. (its just looks). Google search bar is square again and not rounded. basically a lot of things are no longer rounded. Cannot change icon shape anymore

Positives - use the new swipe gesture controls for multitasking. Colorful settings. time on the left. some smooth animations.
[Nokia 7 Plus Questions & Answers] grubber24:
Ok so most of the features wont be ported or it will be tied up to the official Pixel Launcher or something.
[Nokia 7 Plus Questions & Answers] animusFL:
I have the TA-1062, in USA, not eligible for P from Nokia. Would I use that downgrade patch to convert to Global? Also, would that mean no more OTA security patches? Thanks for any info!

Tried P for a few hours but too many vital apps crash or just don`t open, don`t know if its the P-rom causing it or the apps not beeing optimised for that API level. So its back to Nougat for now.

Well thats a bummer! I guess we better wait for DP3 and DP4 to launch and check.

A data factory reset before sideloading P Beta is mandatory/highly recommended to avoid too many extra issues.

Tested this build for day, but rolled back to oreo. Beta was more fluid and quicker but there were some things missing and some apps didn't work well.

[Nokia 7 Plus Questions & Answers] Bat-Maniac:
My conclusion after a few hours of testing Android P on the Nokia 7 plus (TA-1046):

I was very exited when I've read yesterday evening that HMD has released Android P beta for the N7+ and it was really very hard for me to wait until today to try it.

Today, a few hours ago I've finally installed the beta...

- system boots up... installation-guide... DRUM-ROLL .... homescreen apears... "WHAT THE HELL IS THAT"?! -​

My first thought was that I've downloaded the wrong version... Android 7, or maybe even Marshmallow. Only the new gesture navigation on the home-button (wich is only working with the stock launcher called "Quickstep") reminds me of the the Android P Dev Previews for the Pixel Phones.

Where is the beautiful round system ui? Why back to teal? Not to talk about the other features I'm missing like google feed on the left side of the homescreen and double tap to wake.

The only things I can approve are the smooth animations, the fast system, the new gesture navigation and the new multitasking behavior.

I'm really disappointed. There are many tools, tweaks, apps and themes out now for Oreo (and below) wich let us have a closer feeling of the next Android version than this, what HMD has given us.

My only hope is that this beta version of Android P is really in very early development and that this won't be the final look of Android 9 for the 7+... otherwise I will stuck on 8.1.

Google does not allow you to manually start a backup anytime you wish. In my opinion, if you keep the phone on charging, WiFi on, and screen off then Google should backup your phone automatically. Not sure if it works every time, though.

[Nokia 7 Plus Questions & Answers] k3dar7:
I don't know, i not disabled auto update in dev settings, and rollback to oreo for me not showing anytime ;)

what method you do to DP4? sideload or OTA? (i sideload, without wipe (from previous DP)), maybe if you use OTA, then is for your device/imei still OTA activated? maybe is posible on Nokia/Dev/P site this disable??
[Nokia 7 Plus Questions & Answers] Sanjayrao20:
This is what i had done:

1) i installed dp4 through ota the first time. I couldn't enable the gesture bar and some other features, thought maybe because of an improper update

2) requested ota update back to oreo

3) installed dp4 by sideload. Then found out that those features were still missing. Checked on forums and realised it was for everyone.

4) since then not requested for ota update back to oreo. And I'm still using dp4
[Nokia 7 Plus Questions & Answers] bvanaerde:
Ok thanks for letting me know.

I managed to get Waze working again by reinstalling. Unable to reinstall Google Maps as this is a system app.

This problem probably occurred by not performing a clean install of the latest developer preview. I sideloaded it on top of the previous one.

[Nokia 7 Plus Questions & Answers] SirGarmaples:
You have also asked this in the Google Camera thread (Don't ask unrelated topics in threads please.) Nokia has removed the "pill" gesture navigation in Beta 3 (DP4).

Here's to hoping it comes back in the next beta or final release! :D

Here.

It's great for daily use but expect to come across random crashes in Google Photos and the Files app.

Also, updating via OTA wipes EVERYTHING on your phone, so backup everything (including any folders, photos, videos, files you would like to keep).

Weird. They work completely fine for me, instead they're a little bit too loud for me now.
[Nokia 7 Plus Questions & Answers] alessa:
ok, i'll wait for a more stable version then, thanks.

I manually updated my Nokia 6 and it now no longer receives OTA updates.

It's been stated that I have to flash the Mena Nougat firmware to get ota updates again for my Nokia 6. Firmware which is also not officially released by Nokia too!

Can you guarantee that the same won't happen here if I or anybody else updates manually via ADB or SD?

Aside: It's a joke that Nokia has no firmware recovery tools like there were on the Lumia phones. The Hmd/Nokia developer team are amateurish and the support is worse. The phones could be great but the software has been buggy on both Android Nokia phones I have used

BTW: I not have problem with this, i use (for me is many bether that "P pill") XDA Navigation Gesture with this settings... Works fine also with 3rd Launcher (i have Nova Launcher)

(only issue i see, is that i don't have battery statistic per apps, but because i don't have problem with battery, then is fine :)
