I find it strange that People still have issues with Pie when they claim they did a clean install.

I was running a really old firmware (may 2018) and last week i made the switch to .41 and didn't encounter any of the bugs mentioned in this thread.

Fot what its worth I'm running customized NOBA, with latest TWRP and latest Magisk.

I have deleted some system apps that came with the firmware (FB, avast antivirus, etc)

Pie gives me the same rock solid experience i have had with Oreo.

Just my two cents.
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Guides, News, & Discussion] syndikatcz:
Yes, but you are not on stock ... This is the problem of stock version...
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Guides, News, & Discussion] william84:
Its true that i have unlocked the bootloader and rooted my phone, but i have stock firmware installed downloaded with XperiFirm.

I assume you have received the .41 as an Over The Air (OTA) update?

Then i would advice you to back everything up and do a factory reset of your phone.

If you still have the same issues as before the factory reset, i will eat my hat ;)
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Guides, News, & Discussion] Beetle84:
So after literally less than one day after installing, you are basing the whole success/failure of a major update on scrolling smoothness? What ever happened to doing a factory reset after installing, and LETTING THE DAMN SOFTWARE SETTLE FOR A FEW DAYS BEFORE SLAGGING IT? Everyone expects instant smoothness/best results/ no lags when theres a million things going on in the background with a fresh update/install.

[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Guides, News, & Discussion] tomcheng76:
My region is 47.2.A.4.45.

Upgrade to pie through OTA before, lag and batteries drop quickly like hell.

So i used Xperia Champion to repair the software. Every thing works except WIFI.

WIFI always drop several times per day. And the WIFI cannot be turned ON again until rebooting the phone. After rebooting, the WIFI can connect instantly.
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Guides, News, & Discussion] syndikatcz:
Sorry i have my experience.... lags are there until now... not seen on android 8 and sorry again, after the mirror update i have done the factory reset and cleaned cache ... everything installed fresh... lags - scroll lags are there.....

My experience was before with SONY Z3C that with a major update they made something wrong... but after a 1/4 of year they made a update and the lag was gone.... (problem is... that here we will receive only security updates... i think)

Under scroll lag understand ... when you scroll down a webpage in chrome ... it seems like the page would load itself... by slowing dawn of the scroll you see jumps ... somebody posted a video with scroll lag in the battery menu. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a4cE6HJNxLU 19:50 (time)

sure it is a software problem ...
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Guides, News, & Discussion] TheyCallMeMrGlass:
Hi guys, I bought my XZ Premium in December after enjoying my Z5 Premium for until it was stolen at my gym centre while I was in the shower....grrr! But the xz premium is a wonderful upgrade anyway. It came with Oreo 8.0 and I have never updated it since. I love everything the phone is doing for me. The only thing I wish worked was the blue light reduction mode but apparantly that stopped working since Oreo.

Is it ok to stick to Oreo 8.0? Am I making my phone more vulnerable, security wise if I don't upgrade to Pie? I ask because I hear Pie has some teething issues such as faster battery drain and annoying changes in UI or has those issues been fixed with latest update?

I did think about upgrading to Oreo 8.1 but I don't know if that is even possible without rooting.

My phone is not rooted btw, just normal off the shelf stock (no tie with any network provider either).

this bug is annoying (and it exists since first build of Pie)
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Guides, News, & Discussion] adibuyono:
If I am you, I will stick with Oreo 8.0 till May or June 2019.

Oreo is so far best android software I ever used, especially on XZP.

It's lightweight, smooth, and feature full enough.

Pie get the device hot faster than oreo. And no significant update here except the convenient rotate button.

The sad thing in Pie is there is no night light. (You cN install built-in night light on Oreo)

Hi folks,

I've recently bought bluetooth earphone. Well, it works perfectly and when I connect it, XZP asks me for aptX or aptX HD codec.

The bug I want to report is that aptX notification stays even if I disconnect earphone!

Anyone noticed this issue?

[Xperia Z4/Z3+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spyroz540:
I am considering to swap my Xperia Z3+/Z4 for the LG G4, The Xperia Z3+ doesn't have an Oreo Rom, whereas the LG G4 does also it has a bigger and nicer screen, no overheating and apparently overall better camera and i personally like the ceramic curve back.

which is better for gaming and performance?

which do you think is better? should i swap?

On Oreo V4A and Dolby working but not on Pie. At least not for me ?
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] AntwnhsAnt:
V4A works on pie too. After installing it (via magisk) you have to use twrp, mount vendor, and navigate to vendor/lib/soundfx and vendor/lib64/soundfx and rename all the files there by adding something like .old after the .so file extension so the system doesn't recognize them. Users have reported problems after deleting them but with this way everything will work just fine. I'm using it on Los 16 without any problems.

Is Dolby working on Pie? Are you on Oreo?
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] Saswata Chakraborty:
Viper is considered to be the father of all sound mods if you know how to tune it correctly. Dolby is nothing infront of Viper FX (I can confirm as being in music industry for more than 10 years).
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] thomas140:
Agree, I tried viper plus dolby few days ago when I was using miui global stable 10.0.6.0. It gave me louder sound even with volume 1 only, which is amazing. But there is something to sacrifice, which is the audio quality, especially headset.

No matter how I tune using viper4android, the sound quality still bad as long as dolby is turned on.

Knowing dolby wont work on pie, so I remove it before I dirty flash it. And ya, the sound quality is back and I am happy. :laugh:
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] Saswata Chakraborty:
Well, I used to combine Viper+Dolby (only for Surround effect) and the output was amazing. But since Dolby isn't available for Pie as of now, Viper is the only option (probably Ainur Souran works. Didn't try on Pie).

[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] maaakn:
Install VIPER in Magisk. Then you install the Dolby Digital from [MENTION=5704037]repey6[/MENTION]. Then last you install Audio Modification Library. REBOOT.

Then you have to install The SELinux Switch, because Dolby only running in a mode called Permessive or some **** ;) And BUSYBOX. Think thats all.

I attached them.

Thanks for the tips. Have hit the button as well.

Looks like Ainur MKII.II is offline with no way to download. From the developer's page:

"Downloads for MKII.II are deprecated. Join Ainur TG chat for testing out the upcoming MKIII beta!"

If you still have it installed, where did you source it from? Or did you download when it was available earlier?

[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] timbuctoo:
Does it conflicts with AudioFX on LOS16?

Yup, I was wondering why it was showing "No" for "Processing" :)

Thanks for confirming. I guessed the Audio Modification Library was the culprit because after installing, I was getting cracks and pops in the sound; the minute I disabled and rebooted, things were fine, but I had already uninstalled Viper by then. Will re-install.

Does it conflict with the default AudioFX on LOS? I anyway intend to disable it when Viper is active, but checking just in case to know if it conflicts even if they co-exist, though inactive.

As an aside, I tried Dolby Digital Plus, and it doesn't work despite setting the kernel to Permissive; it crashes at start itself.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] thechosenone43:
Welcome.

And yes AudioFX doesn't work due to conflicts work V4A I guess. So either way I guess.

Yeah tried to get DDP to work as well but didn't worked out in PIE when setting Selinux to permissive as well.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] anandario:
Did any one facing this issue, v4a FX installed and works flawlessly in Poco F1 when the screen/ display is on.

But if the screen off/ lock screen and I turn the screen on, the sound (from music player, etc) is getting smaller (audio focus change just like if there’s any notification coming) and will get back to normal after few second. Very annoying.

I tried to change the installation method (original-material), as a system or app, modify vendor/lib etc but the issue still exist.

Any suggest?

edit:

using miui eu, pie beta.

v4a FX v.2.0 from magisk.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] thechosenone43:
I think that's normal. Just try to watch a YouTube or Facebook video beside listening to music/ Musicplayer and you'll experience that the sound turns lower and the watching video will get louder.

V4A magisk module works without any other config for miui pie.

On custom roms, only older, "high quality sound " version works as magisk module, otherwize you get buggy notifications and ringtons.

Deleted sound files from vendor libs and now it seems that ringtones work too.

One bug, present for oreo and nougat on other phones, is switching back from a2dp to phone profile in v4a app when turning off bluetooth.

So i have to manually disconnect the bluetooth device in bt settings, force close the app or, on the newest version, exit from v4a in-app three dots menu and start it again.

You can try IceWizard alongside with Viper, both can be installed on magisk and they work perfectly (at least on MIUI 10 from where I'm using them) the config for IceWizard is made from a console app with super user, and my personal choice is Config. 1 with the preset of Music (Number 8 if I remember correctly).

That mod deserves a try.

Also having problem with Pocophone F1 running LineageOS 16. Getting v4a working on speaker but shows abnormal status on bluetooth headphones.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] hugolol:
Found my solution below:

That might indeed be the cause if this is also true for LDAC, since I use Sony MDR-1000x as headphones.

Confirmed! LDAC and AptX was the problem. Hooked it up to a mobile speaker using BT and it worked wonders using SDC codec. This sucks but still nice that I (read racerx002) figured it out! Thanks a lot for the help! Here's hoping that someone will post a fix for LDAC/AptX!

More specifically, it is not LDAC and AptX that is the problem. It is the "Bluetooth sample rate". LDAC streams at 96kHz, while v4a only supports up to 48kHz as of now. Lowering to 48kHz in developer options instantly kicked in the viper4android FX!

[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Questions & Answers] werty733:
You need to flash using newflasher.
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Questions & Answers] Moarten:
This will wipe the phone, so back-up everything you want to keep!

What I did (coming from old stock oreo with unlocked bootloader):

-Download firmware using XperiFIRM

-Download latest newflasher (V13 i believe)

-Go to the folder with the firmware, inside the XperiFIRM folder, where you see all the .sin and .ta files

-Remove ALL the .ta files, just search for *.ta in the folder and delete them all

-Turn the phone off

-Press and hold volume down and connect the phone to the PC. You will see the notification led turn blue (i think its blue with volume down and green when you hold volume up while connecting, can be other way around)

-Double click newflasher.exe

-Press 'n' and 'enter' twice, it will now flash the rom

-(optional)Go to the folder where you have the latest TWRP for the xz premium, open a command prompt there and execute "fastboot flash recovery twrp.img" or whatever your twrp file is called.

-Boot the phone. If you just installed TWRP you can flash magisk. No need to flash any DRM fix or custom kernel.

This will wipe the phone, so back-up everything you want to keep!
