Hello

Is there a way to disable the swipe down search feature on the home screen? It's annoying and I set it off every time that I bring down the setting tiles (wifi, Bluetooth, etc); and I don't use it.

Thanks

[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] nabril15:
I assume that you're saying that it's part of the stock launcher???

Is there a way to disable that, is what I asked.
[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] domy_os:
Yes, it's part of the stock launcher. I didn't find the way to do this without replacing the launcher.

It is sure that tissot will get Android P by end of 2k18. I am curious whether it will be lucky enough to get Q update being an Android one phone(software support is for three OS versions).
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] Aman301582:
No, flash custom ROM and be happy.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] sixty4rer:
We cannot tell for sure. Let's start the petition NOW and make it happen ?
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] AndroGeek911:
No it wont.

It wont get Q update. Android P is still doubtful.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] pkrajpur:
But I saw on official android page that Android One phones get security updates for three years and OS updates for 2 years(i.e, Oct 2019). Q will launch in may next year so I am hopeful:p
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] fmorgado1987:
Why do you say that? They already confirmed it for sure that they will release P.

---------- Post added at 06:06 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:54 AM ----------

First of all, Android Q will NEVER BUT EVER be released in May 2019. At the very best may be announced and some selected devices be granted with a developer preview (obviously Pixel devices). The final release to the public will yes, probably be in October 2019, but once again firstly for Pixels and then other high range phones. There is no way that Xiaomi will release Q on the fly right on October, and much less for our A1, when they have the A2 and (probably) an A3 by that date.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] pkrajpur:
Agreed..
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] arjunbalan1994:
Treble build for Mi A1!!!

Since we have treble support(Unofficially)we can get developer preview once its released to pixel devices!
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] abhi_aditya:
I flashed Custom ROM (Android Pie, LR) and using it as daily driver. Android P for Mi A1 officially is still a long way to go.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] goran60:
This is a catastrophic knowledge. While others are thinking about Android Q, we are not sure if we are going to get Android P.

really shame and injustice.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] GuestK00314:
android p is confirmed for A1 -_-
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] Cristewor:
I just want stock ROM to support the recording of videos at 30 FPS in low light conditions, without any mod or something like that. only that.

I would not mind when they release android P if not for that reason.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] KaaMyA:
Where is the evidence of this?

Do you have any?

Why do you ask such things, if your statements aren't even well documented?

Have you seen any info from Xiaomi team about rethinking their decision about keeping MiA1 "un-trebled", switching their ideas just to take the funny P, carrying with all the process of repartitioning each device's drives, all inside of an update pack, with free support? → no matter which risks people would suffer if something just goes wrong with such update.

Xiaomi won't be riding such horse, when it is already running away.

In resume...

Mi A1 with Q, thanks to unofficial Treble process? Possible.

Mi A1 with P, thanks to official Xiaomi update? Keep dreaming.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] miltens:
Mi A1 with Q, unofficlaly possibly happening.

Mi A1 with P, thanks to official Xiaomi update IS HAPPENING.

Sources: Google guarantees two years of major software updates and three years of security updates. That's what Android One is. You can also see that everywhere.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] KaaMyA:
Well... As I said...

Keep dreaming.

You said Google, I said Xiaomi.

Is there something Google would do to force Xiaomi to revert what they did just to get a P label?

...Horses ran away... Newer device's arrived...

Forget it, or dream it. Is the same.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] miltens:
Let me explain it another way :

When someone (in this case Xiaomi) is under a contract (think of the Android One Program as a contract), they (Xiaomi)

are by definition forced to obey some rules (2 years of major Software updates, and 3 years of security updates) set by the other party of the contract,

which in this case is Google. When you buy a device branded as an Android one device, then you are guaranteed those things, and that is why you got

the Android one device in the first place. For those reasons the Xiaomi Mi 5X IS NOT GUARANTEED ANY OF THE ABOVE since it is not an Android one device, despite being literally

the same device hardware-wise, it could never get Android P officially, and Xiaomi could stop providing security updates at any point.

EDIT: ALSO THIS ONE

Stay fresh over time

Mi A1 ships with Android Nougat, and will receive 2 years minimum of OS upgrades. And since Android One users are among the first to get new OS upgrades when they’re released, you’ll have access to the latest features and innovations even sooner.

Are you telling this to a Chinese company?

How long have you been playing this Android dance here?

[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] miltens:
I am not to keep having this pointless since you can't understand facts and things that are official, and also provided by Xiaomi themselves in the official website for the phone. Time will show you, what I keep explaining, and you keep not getting.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] KaaMyA:
Prove what you said in bold or die. Give an evidence about this *truth* to make this fairy tale go real.

I'm dying to see how Xiaomi (by you, forced by Google) will support all customers after they make Mi A1 a Treble device with updates (probably, deleting all internal/user data), no mention about crashes, damaged device's that will appear while that happens, just to get P...

...all of this for a 1 year old device... Yes... Time passed away...

...however, there are always newbies, coming here to flash nice stories...
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] Wyroczen:
Treble is not needed for android P, so Xiaomi don't have to worry about treblizing Mi A1
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] pkrajpur:
I thought that XDA was a place to ask queries but from your behaviour it seems that It is only for pro like you.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] AndroGeek911:
Hope is good thing.

2 years update would give you Android P as phone was launched with Nougat so it got Oreo and P it might get. But Q it wont for sure.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] Cristewor:
Google has pronounced that it is totally mandatory that every device launched with Android 8 and upwards should be compatible with treble project, but devices that were launched with lower versions can upgrade to a higher version of the system without supporting this. So MI A1 can update to P without the need to support treble and without any problem.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] miltens:
They are not forced by Google. They are forced by the Android one program to update the phone to Android P. The proof is literally the meaning of the Android One logo you have on the back of your phone.

For extra sources of proof you can check the official xiaomi link I provided (https://www.mi.com/en/mi-a1/android-one/) , the wikis and then the freakin' android one features. Xiaomi as a company officially says that the phone will get 2 years of OS upgrades, what more proof do you need. Do you want it signed and sealed in blood by Xiaomi's CEO? And since you are a big kid, I believe you see that something stated officially, is proof. I should really not have taken the time to respond since you have partial knowledge of what you are trying to talk about (treble part of your response proves you don't fully know your facts) and obviously this is a sign that you are stubborn and we will not make any proggress here.. Now go clear up things in your messed up head. You can also come back here after the phone gets Android P officially and apologize for being a burden to the society.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] :
https://www.gadgetraid.com/2018/08/xiaomi-android-pie-update/

just read the last few lines from the Mi A1 section. AFAIK Xiaomi had given word when the phone had been launched that we will get O and P confirmed.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] Ritik99:
Yes when i purchased my A1 it was clearly written that Oreo by year end and Android P next year, i don't know why they have actually removed that part now from their:confused:

But P is coming for sure, most probably before 31 Dec, as i was written Next year in launch event. Hopefully they won't do the same thing they did last year by releasing buggy builds to just show they fulfilled their promise.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] :
hope so
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] denisval:
While this might be true for newer Android One phones, it doesn't apply to ours. When our phone was released the Android One guidelines were clear:

- 1 major update

- several smaller updates at a pace the manufacturer can decided

- I believe one and a half or two years of support (can be a bit off here)

I think a difference in current guidelines can be attributed to the fact that new devices have Treble support and thus also an easier framework to provide updates. There's a lot less hassle for both the Android team and the manufacturer to get an update ready and rolled out. While for devices like ours and older a manufacturer has to get each and every update through this massive Google bureaucracy to be able to roll it out (also the reason why custom ROM's are able to update at a much faster pace, they don't have to do this).

So on the Q update, I'd say it's a no. When the Mi A1 was released, the guys at Xiaomi are said to have promised a second major update (Android Pie) on top of the already pretty good software support we've had so far.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] spaha-bih:
Dont be confused, two years of updates means two major updates.

Since mi a1 came with nougat out of the box, first major update is Oreo and the second is Pie.

Rarely happens that one device got 3rd major updste, as far as i know, pixel devices will have three years or three major updates support.

Minimum, so it can be a chance to get android Q after all.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] rns007:
lol that's what I am saying, the A1 official page says minimum 2years of updates and not "only 2 major updates"

2 years from Sep '17 so if Q is released before Sep '19 A1 MUST get it because Xiaomi and Google both promised to provide a minimum 2 years of OS upgrades, it's a written official promise, it doesn't say only 2 major updates ANYWHERE, not even in TnC.

---------- Post added at 07:13 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:10 AM ----------

and i suggest you take a look at Mi A1's official website, it says "minimum 2 years of android upgrades"

Sep '17 to Sep '19 https://www.mi.com/in/mi-a1/android-one/
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] Powered by SRAM:
Lol...Q? I want them to fix P.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] spaha-bih:
look, two years means two major upgrades. Android Q will not be released for Mi A1 officialy. Every manufacturer said the same thing, take a look at Samsung and others, even Google gave only two major updates for their Nexus line-up. Except the Pixel phones when they said they will give 3 major updates.

Two years means nothing, because it is not stated clearly what that means. If Mi A1 stayed on Nougat and yet received security patches or some firmwared updates, that could also fit in into that philosophy of ´two years of updates´ or whatever what they say.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] fixxxer102:
You guys all lost your mind. We all bought mega cheap devise and you really expect to get support like pixel devices?? Are you out of mind? We got two major updates that`s all

meanwhile in the real world, android pie was released for mia1 in Q4 2018.

---------- Post added at 05:33 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:26 AM ----------

if xiaomi doesn't give customers what was promised it will get sued in india where its officially sold. Just like what happened with motorola with the oreo update for moto g4 plus. If a company promises something at the sale of a device then its bound to fullfill it if it wants to continue selling their products. Its simple logic. Like i said in Q4 2018 we got pie, and we might get Q too if its released in around feb-march on 2019, security patches will be received monthly till 2020.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] alkesh95:
Andriod Q i.e. Major android revision getting released in feb march (Q1 2019).????????

Security patches till 2020????????????

Can you pm me the number of your supplier. Smoking some really good stuff?????
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] pooniaprashant:
dont know why i am even replying to you but since the level of your stupidity is breaking the roof i just had to. Firstly, i said "we MIGHT get pie IF google releases android q along feb-march this year" open your dictionary and check the meaning of "IF" and "MIGHT", everyone knows android q wont be released so soon as not even the public beta is out yet, so chances of Mi A1 getting it is minuscule. Now coming to security patches till 2020,

Mi A1 released = September 2017, ANDROID SYSTEM UPGRADES are for 2 years MINIMUM for android one devices, 2017+2 = 2019, i.e September 2019

SECURITY PATCH UPDATES are supported ATLEAST 3 years since the phones release, 2017+3 = 2020, i.e September 2020.

Sources:-

Google: https://www.android.com/one/

Xiaomi: https://www.mi.com/in/mi-a1/android-one/

read the page properly, keep a dictionary with you also as its in english.

I feel sad for all those laughing emojis though. Makes me cringe now.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] KaaMyA:
The same real world where people is complaining about an horrible update where they even lost modem bands, screen brightness (¿battery saving placebo?), and sound quality during calls.

This looks like a fan service, for those people who wanted so much that P labeled on their devices... The same ones who also wants Q, forgetting how well Xiaomi build their ROMs.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] pooniaprashant:
All the things mentioned above were intentional. This device was released for India and has all bands required for every carrier in the subcontinent. I am myself running 10.0.3.0 since December and it's perfectly fine for being the first stable release. Batterylife is considerably better than Oreo and also the multitouch is fixed. The only bug bring capacitive lights turned on even when gesture navigation is enabled. But if you're living in regions other than India, I won't suggest to update.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] cingulum:
That's a wishful thinking :) Let the device get a stable, properly working P then we can start dreaming about Q ;)
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] alkesh95:
Since the release of the very first commercial Android operating system, there have been only 3 Major revisions that were released in Q2. And those were pre 2010. Honeycomb isn't included as it's a tablet only proprietary OS.

From 2011 there have been no android revision released in Q1 or Q2.

So your "if" is just wishful thinking not a possibility.

Release of any beta software does not constitute as public/official release. By extrapolating what has been happening for 8 years. I can say this "NO Mi A1 won't be getting Android Q from official sources".

Xiaomi promised minimum two years of software updates. Then they might not give a flying duck about this phone yes that means no security updates.

Android project has promised three years of security updates. Android One did not. They are different project for different use case scenarios. And their support is different too.

Show me an official android one or Xiaomi website (Mi A1 specific) where "three years of security update" is written. Couldn't find one. Maybe it was written in English. Can you help me out? Would prefer URL.

Your sources doesn't have "three years of security updates" mentioned anywhere. I have even downloaded the webpage and ran offline search on it with these parameters : "three", "years", "security", "updates". Didn't find what you said.

One of your thumbnail is not for android one, other one is.

Mi A1 will not receive security updates for three years. It seems you have really good understanding of android eco-system and mastery over english language. So why won't you give me proper URL or screenshot with URL visible. I am a Noob and i am quite eager to learn if i am wrong.

Reptilian, click on the Google source and scroll down to the bottom, how have you even survived till now?

Incase you won't be able to find the link again, https://www.android.com/one/

Cause, you know, English. Btw earlier post wasn't a reply, this is. The emoji cringelord. How stupid one can be when he isnt even able to process a webpage that too with screenshots provided yet is so quick to argue with his "experience" of the "android ecosystem", sources are, of course wikipedia and the reptilian himself. The page where the support clause is literally the first webpage which pops up when one googles "android one".

The only reason I am continuously posting here because I am the one sourcing android one and the OEM, while the reptilian overlord is sourcing Wikipedia and his "experience". He experiences that so and so devices will get updates. I know you won't be able to find the security patch clause again from the OFFICIAL android one website, so according to you the reptilian overlord when will the support end for Mi A1?
