[Honor Magic 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] Emare212:
Hi all,

as some already noticed, the official public Beta of EMUI 10/MagicUI 3 for the Magic 2 was released. Here is how to upgrade to it.

Please note:

There are several known issues in the beta, as listed below (translated from chinese):

The screen sometimes freezes when viewing recent tasks

After the upgrade, there is a problem that the traffic switch is turned on in the mobile phone, and when the notification bar has no notification, the flow bar of the pull-down notification bar disappears, and subsequent versions will be repaired.

After the upgrade, there is a problem entering the multi-task view. Will be fixed in further version.

After the upgrade, the gesture navigation left and right side slide vibration function is not acitve. You can keep the vibration function of sliding up into multitasking. If you want it, please go to “Settings > Sound and Vibration” More Sound Settings > System vibration feedback or vibration when clicked " and turn on the switch.

After the upgrade, the Rural Credit Bank APP will not be able to log in. Please be sure to unbind the device before the upgrade. The operation method (for reference only, subject to actual operation): Personal Center > Security Center > Device Management > Unbind, then upgrade, and then log in again after the upgrade is complete.

After the upgrade, there is a problem that the play store icon downloaded before the upgrade disappears. Please download the Google Play Store with a higher version than the current Google Play Service Updater or Google Play Store in the third-party app market (f.e. APKMirror).

Some applications are not adapted to dark mode.
