Hi,
I have notice two things different from Nexus :
- Preinstalled calendar app is not the Google native calendar that we can found in Play Store. ( but it's easy to do the replacement ).
- Native E-Mail app from play store is not compatible with new Moto X : this one is annoying...
Did someone notice it ?
Edit : ok, just contacted Moto Support because the Play Store is telling me E-Mail app not compatible with new Moto X.
They should contact me later to give me answer.

I thought other than the special Moto features (e.g. Moto Voice) it was stock android. So it has it's own Moto email and calendar apps?
Is is stock android e-mail app. But for an unknown reason you can't update it with the version from play store.
I have asked support about this and i'm still waiting for an answer.
I upgraded from O to P, then rolled back to O after a few days of trying out P (have my own reasons, one of which is that of Magisk and the number of issues that I and others experienced/are experiencing on P).
Before the upgrade, I received a Play Store update for the Nokia Camera that was at v90.9.xx at the time. It was working well with O despite issues here and there. Then I made the jump to P, which came with the v91.9.xx Nokia Camera.
Now that I rolled back to O with Sept 2018 patch level, I was surprised to find out that the Nokia Camera from the Play Store disappeared. I could no longer update the app that came with a v8.xxx. It is now marked as incompatible with my device. As a workaround, I sideloaded the latest v91.9.1130.40 available apk from apkmirror. It installed and ran normally but then would immediately FC after a few minutes. No amount of clearing appdata/cache would make it run on O without FCing. So I settled with the last version that ran without issues, v90.9.1125.10.
My question is, would anyone have any idea if HMD is removing support on O for future versions of the Nokia Camera starting with v91.xx?
In the app description it still says there for requirements a Nokia smartphone running at least Android O 8.0 and the apk, even though its target SDK is api28 (Pie), its minimum SDK is api26 (Oreo).
EDIT: Even though I'm using a gcam port for my shots, I would still like to have an updated stock cam on Oreo for its other features like bothies, PRO mode, and 16MP selfies ?. I plan on staying a little while longer on O. ?
I have updated to Pie among other reasons, for new camera software since I get use to on Nokia 6.1

That's a valid point, but not quite helpful in my inquiry. The Nokia Camera SHOULD be made available to at least Oreo and later. There hasn't been a complete rollout of Pie in Nokia's entire device lineup, but the Play Stores marks the current version v91.9.1133.80 incompatible with Oreo, locking out devices that still have no Pie update available and denying updates and bug fixes to the stock camera.

But it is available on Play store for Nokia 6.1 2108 running Oreo.

I am in the same shoes like you. I also want to stay on Oreo for some more time until they fix graphic glitches and some small bugs on Pie.
Last time I rolled back from Pie beta to Oreo, Nokia camera was also not showing on the Play store, and after a week or so, the update came...
We shall see about this time.
Btw. camera version you marked as one to be working, is also crashing for me, especially when I try to use the silly faces and masks from the top shortcuts...

I'm surprised that it appears on a Nokia 6.1 2018 running Oreo. Does the v91.9.1133.80 work flawlessly with it without crashing? Are the AR stickers working as well? (Though I have my doubts about that, I don't know if AR is supported in that device, lemme know ?)

Hey thanks for dropping by. Regarding that crash with stickers on v90.9.1125.40 yes I experienced that as well and wrote it off as a bug ?, needing a fix. But that's not possible atm because Nokia Camera in the play store on on this phone is marked incompatible, at least on Oreo.
I too am thinking the same way as you, when issues with Pie iron out. The UI glitches I find inconvenient and distracts from the experience. More than that, Magisk is incompatible with Pie on this device, causing certain system functions to go missing, further making the experience unbearable ?. But I do like the improvements Pie brings to the table.

Thanks for the sitrep on that end. But here it's a different story. ?
Hmm this is weird. I never had the application available on the store for my Nokia 7 plus (O and P)
@braveheartleo : I have the same issue. TA-1046 September patch 8.1.0. The update was showing 1-2 weeks back. I had updated earlier (successfully) but downgraded because of the missing HDR option (autoHDR was not working effectively for me). So I disabled and re-enabled it, going back to factory version. The update was visible but for the last couple of weeks it's not appearing in play store at all.
I had tried to re-update a while back, but it would always get stuck after downloading about 84mb, exactly after downloading the app itself and before downloading "extra data" part that goes upto 150mb. I think its an obb file.
So a couple of days back I found an obb file, around 150mb inside Internal Storage/Android/obb/com.hmdglobal.camera2/.
I wasn't able to delete it, so I forcefully removed it root and went to retry the app update where I found it had disappeared. I obtained the play store url in google, opened it as a webpage, clicked the button to "show in play store".
The app appeared but showed as being incompatible with this device.
I have tried to sideload it (a while back when I could't update), it installs fine but FCs at certain modes (unfortunately I don't remember correctly). Seems I have to use factory one for now.

Thanks for chiming in. ?
We have the same experience regarding the stock cam. Although I haven't been using stock for taking photos, I too noticed the FCs you have seen. Regarding manual HDR toggle missing from v90.x onwards, I found an earlier version on apkmirror that has HDR toggle in the UI, v85.9.1124.31. Perhaps you can try that out as a stop-gap to the issues we are getting starting with v90.x
One other here commented that the latest Play Store version is compatible with Nokia 6.1 on Oreo, but I wonder how compatible it is in practical terms (no FCs, etc.).

Apparantly a new camera version has been uploaded to Google play (here) with some new features. Unfortunately, it's still showing as incompatible. Not just for us, but folks on Nokia 8 and Nokia 6.1 also confirmed the same in a telegram group.
HMD is truly going bananas and nuts.

Speaking of, have you noticed how the Nokia Mobile Support app quickly jumped from one version to another (it's now at 2.0.9 as of this writing, starting from 2.0.3)? Sure, quick fix releases are commendable, but then you start to wonder how QC for software development is on their end.

At this point, it should be safe to say that they've "gone" now :laugh:, with all the bugs people are experiencing on Pie (3.22C), their unstoppable streak on releasing new phones (and now the change to confusing global naming scheme as well), and missed targets on timely releases of monthly updates, resulting in a release that is rushed (and buggy compared to the betas). :laugh:
