bug fixes with Pie ?

Hi !

Some news about smart Lock and battery consumption ? (Heard about a lot of devices with a new Pie version that had battery consumption issues...)

Just received the official notification to update on my XZ1 C... :)

Call recording with pie

Count me as one more that's interested with this issue. Some say call recording is disabled, some say no, it's still possible. I'd just like to know definitively one way or the other. In any case I'm not feeling a whole lot of enthusiasm about installing pie. I would doing it mainly to keep getting security updates

What's the situation with regards to getting root on Pie as of right now? And I presume the camera doesn't work as there's no DRM fix available for 9.0 either?
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact Guides, News, & Discussion] PeppeBove:
This depends on the location of the ROM, in some country calls recording is forbidden or limited, in others it is allowed (so it is available in stock)

(In Italy is limited forbidden)

I'm using ACR and it still able to detect calls and record voice from microphone/microphones. You're still able to hear caller voice, but it's very quiet (now it comes from second microphone I bet). If you are talking in quiet place it almost works as before, but if you speak loudly or ambient noise is high, it's almost impossible to hear and understand caller voice. You can try switch to speaker in this situation to gain some volume, but it's not the same experience as on Oreo. :(
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact Guides, News, & Discussion] martynas:
Was ACR recording from the mic for Oreo too?

Skvalex recorder I am using now on Oreo, records from the line both sides of conversation.

Here is Vodafone Germany moderator saying that Sony stopped the update for xz1c because some problems.

I dont know how much time usually Sony takes to fix a bug and release the firmware but I would guess one month.

I also would guess the "problem" as being the security pin bug after the update to pie not working as it should, even thou people already reported several kind od bugs, the pin one should be really a update stopper.

[Razer Phone 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] JamesDon:
Is the camera worth the price? I mean it is around 60,000 in India so is it good enough:confused:
[Razer Phone 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] mattbeau:
I would like to know also. I'm debating on either staying with my Pixel 2 XL, Razer phone 2 or iPhone xs max.

The iPhone takes great pictures but I think the video stabilization is better on Pixel. I love the buttery smooth screen and design on the Razer.
[Razer Phone 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] CurtisMJ:
I'd say don't buy the phone for the camera. Consider the other features and if they're appealing enough, then go ahead. The camera hardware is technically good, but as the Pixels proved, software makes a huge difference. You can use modded Pixel software to make up for it, or shoot in RAW, but it should be more of a nice surprise when you get a good shot than an expectation. You have to work for it, which most people won't be willing to do, but if you are then it might just work for you.
[Razer Phone 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] mattbeau:
I'm omw to pick one up. I don't mind running the Gcam apk if I have to. If the camera hardware is on par then this thing will be pretty sweet!

I also loved the butter smooth scrolling on the Razer phone one that Best buy had on display(for some reason the 2 isn't on display but available for purchase)
[Razer Phone 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] mattbeau:
So the camera is actually pretty good. And you can download gcam.apk its just not a perfect solution. I bet things will get better over time though
[Google Pixel 3 Questions & Answers] dannydan20:
Smaller Pixel 3.

Brightness randomly changes in fixed light setting. It's very subtle but enough to be annoying, especially visible when viewing content on white background.

Another weird issue I'm seeing occasionally is the brightness changing as a result of scrolling through content - happens in Chrome and other apps too. Not sure if it's related to the first issue. Turning off adaptive brightness doesn't seem to fix it.

Anyone else seeing this? I'm wondering if I should go for RMA or if this is a software issue.
[Google Pixel 3 Questions & Answers] Robissimo:
I just received my phone, and noticed this the first night. It is very subtle, almost undetectable, but I noticed that turning the brightness up diminished the effect.
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] Harmtan2:
So as is commonly known, if you use the new gestures on 9.0.2 & a 3rd party launcher (such as Nova) when you lock the screen with an app open you will get automatically brought home upon unlock. I figured I'd try something random to see what it did.

This requires root & titanium Backup.

With Nova Launcher set as my default, I opened Titaniam backup & froze the stock Oneplus Launcher. I lost the home/recents gestures (interestingly enough, I still had back working on both sides).

In toying with it, I backed out of titanium Backup to my Nova home screen. Discovered I had no home or recent apps gestures & concluded that was a lost cause & opened up Titaniam backup again. I unfroze the Oneplus launcher and called it quits.

However, I started noticing that I wasn't always being taken to my home screen when I lock it with an app open. I've tested phone calls and several apps (reddit, ESPN, Chrome, messaging, etc...). When I lock the app open, I get taken back to that app when I unlock the phone again!

So in short, here are the steps you can use to replicate

1) Have a rooted device with Titaniam backup installed

2) Set your default launcher (mine is Nova)

3) Open Titaniam Backup & freeze the Oneplus Stock Launcher

4) Use your back gestures unil you get to the home screen (this probably isn't required, but I'm just including exactly how to replicate)

5) Go back into Titaniam, unfreeze the Oneplus stock launcher.

See if it worked! Let me know if this works for any of you. Also mention if you bothered with step 4,so I can update accordingly.
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] whizeguy:
Really wierd since I don't have this issue at all.

I'm using latest nova and if I lock in instagram/telegram/chrome/camera or whatever app I'm in I get the same app after I unlock.

But good that you brought a fix for this that's facing this.
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] ajsmsg78:
There is a simple solution that I posted in the thread above this one. This thread will probably be closed.

Delete the stock OP launcher then the home and recents gestures don't work. Install OnePlus Launcher from the Play Store then reboot. After rebooting uninstall the OnePlus Launcher that you just installed from the Play Store. Then reboot again and the gestures will start working like they should. I did this on OB6 and 9.0.2 Stable pie and can confirm it works for me. I use Nova Launcher as well. Then you won't have to have the stock Launcher installed at all.
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] whizeguy:
Or better: just install latest oneplus launcher released 9th November and problem is gone. (yes.. For 3rd party apps aswell)
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] dgunn:
So I seem to be facing a different problem. For whatever reason I'm not sure I have yet to figure out why. Everytime I update my launcher past 3.0.0 and reboot my phone automatically installs launcher 3.0.2. I have never had that version of the launcher on my device. I can update to 3.1.5 and as soon as I reboot I have 3.0.2

Hi , I have a h830 with latest firmware 30c (Oreo) it's completely stock no root no custom recovery , at the first time I notice some bugs to the Oreo build ...

Always on display some times it's stucked at 12 o clock..

Bluetooth connection is unstable....

Some time lags too much....

just wondering if anyone had the same issues with his phone...
[T-Mobile LG G5 Questions & Answers] spl180db:
not sure about bluetooth as i haven't tried it since the update but my always on display will change to 2:00 for no reason and then back to the correct time and the phone runs so sluggish with any app unless its already in ram from a previous attempt. Sad an update this nice basically ruined the phone while others not on tmobile seem to be fine. Sure hope someone looks into this so we can get a fix.

Hard reset the device. It will fix most weird issues from the upgrade.
[T-Mobile LG G5 Questions & Answers] soniccm:

Sometimes when it's unlocked open google assistance for no reason maybe as you said i have to make a hard reset
[T-Mobile LG G5 Questions & Answers] Yazuken1:
Not sure about anybody else but I'm experiencing a lot of random app crashes. Most specifically messenger, instagram, and YouTube. Its almost making me wanna downgrade back to nougat until this is fixed. Almost every time I go into messenger, if I begin to scroll through a message it crashes. Also crashes if I begin to type a message to someone. I noticed that for some reason if I do these actions slower it seems to crash less... It's very annoying.

Whats up everyone!? Im not new to XDA- I usally sit back and read what everyone has to st because ....well honestly ....I dont know **** compared to you guys!! Lmaoooo ! But ive been wondering Now that you guys have oreo....would you recommend upgrading from 7.0? I havent upgraded because im comfortable with 7- and all I keep seeing are complaints about oreo- ive even seen a few who downgraded back from oreo.

Is it worth it?

Also im on t-mobile have a LG-H830. Not rooted.

It took t-mobile forever to catch up.

My worry is -ok I upgrade to oreo, I experience all the bugs and issues everyone talks about....how long til they put out a fix for the bugs!?!?

I don't know.if I should or shouldn't

I appreciate any feedback.

And if im on the wrong thread /forum for this question.......I apologize.

Thanks
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AymanTQX:
I am pretty new to this rooting community, been trying alot of things. But recently I have been flashing alot of ROMs, and clearing memories alot. I installed DotOS 8.1 Oreo, worked fine, but after sometime I flashed Pixel Experience 9 not realising its still unofficial, so I reversed. Yesterday, it started to shutdown (or Black out- unresponsive) every time I turn it on. I thought it was the battery, saw it at 5%. I charged it full. Now it does turn on, but shutdowns suddenly at any point. Sometimes, also on TWRP when flashing Gapps or anything else. I am currently using a

Samsung Galaxy Note 3 SM-N9005 HLTE, with a Chinese fake battery (If that is a possible cause - although it worked fine for a long time). I would really appreciate some help.

Thank you.

EDIT 1: I tried using my old original battery, which kind of inflated and broken, but it did boot up. But now it reboots instead of shutting down. Maybe it is the battery? or something with the device?

[Google Pixel 3 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] DeeZZ_NuuZZ:
don't do it at the same time. charging with the stock charger will heat up the battery and when using an app to video call it will make it even hotter (SoC/CPU runs hotter) and then at 50°C batterytemp (don't know at which temp exactly) the phone will shutdown.

It seems that OpenGApps somehow is breaking LOS somewhere. I've been using OG since I started using LOS and as of late the OS experience has turned into a stuttering nightmare.

Then today I moved on to MindTheGApps and my Moto Z became a completely different animal. Please note that I had all of the applications I had with OG fully loaded (that was with the OG stock package), but this time most of them coming from Play Store and not from the package, due to the tininess of MTG.

Everything now is fluid like a breeze in spring. Really, really snappy, but I have roughly the same set of apps I had before (count those those native in LOS that were being deleted by OG as an extra).

BTW one thing I found strange with OG is that it installs a Google Now launcher which isn't compatible with the device.

Anyone feeling the same there?
