Сamaradas! I suddenly get apt-x on last 14 firmware Android 8.1.0_V9.6.14.0.ODIMIFE BETA via the Magisc module.
Prior to this, all attempts were unsuccessful!
See screenshots. (sorry Russian locale)
I feel the difference in sound.
bt headphones defined as apt-x mode and apt-x was also in the developer’s menu (no need to set manually)
must need that module?

My Sony MDR-1000X headphones support LDAC, but LDAC would not work for me even with the second October update. aptX and aptX HD are both working when connected to my devices that support those standards.

You don´t have to select it. It´s set by default. Confimed with my amplifier screen.

So i have and old headset with 3 button and really like to change music and answer calls with it so cool, but stock ROM doesn't work with my headset only the sound.. The question is this hardware related or this support can be implemented in a rom. Is there a dev to answer a question?
Well, Moto decided to not support anything above 1 button headsets. I wrote 2 patches related to that few months ago but due to them being too hacky I didn't merge them.
They require rebuilding the kernel so it's not like "add x.yz file to /system/me/me/".

Where is Nokia 7 Plus's October patch and why ain't anyone talking about this? This security fix is a major flaw in the linux kernel. Why are they delaying the security patches now?
EDIT: October Patch On Nokia 7 Plus Was Provided On 30th October 2018 (109MB). No Bug Fixes Though.
Everyone got their piece of pie hence nokia has moved on to giving timely updates for N7+

I suggest to sideload Pie and wait no more...
TA-1062 in the US - got it last weekend. No October patch yet, though.
Split-screen implementation in Pie sucks. Not terribly fond of how you remove apps from queue, either. Everything else is just fine so far, though.

This is exactly what Xiaomi did to Mi A1. I don't know what's wrong with HMD. First, their devices are insanely priced. Second, they prevent us from using our device the way we want by not allowing bootloader unlocking (official). And now they are not even being punctual on providing monthly security updates.
Disgusting!!

They'll get the same treatment I gave Xiaomi when I bought this phone. I'm not getting a Nokia again. Next in line will be OnePlus...
edit:
This is too good to keep for myself:
ps: may have messed up the regular customer part but you get the point xD.
ps2: after it timed out and I marked the issue as not solved another support agent, this time in Portuguese, tried to start another chat, but since he failed to check the chat log I ignored him...

they have too much phones out there right now, remember even the new nokia phones recently introduced came with the android oreo, really shame.
and as time goes, hmd become worst and slow with the updates.
apart from the 7 plus, other nokia phones are still on android oreo.
And give me, ´always up to date´ speech

Same.. 1062 in US. And hate the split screen implementation. Also the longgg swipe to get to the apps. I disabled that gesture setup for that very reason.. pity google forces this for pixel 3. I will use Nova if they ever do this for my phone.

They have the means to contact every single N7+ user and send a message with that information.
"Subject: Nokia 7 Plus October Security Patch
Hello dear user, due to our inability to provide the update in time(or any other bs excuse by Nokia) we will be skipping the October Patch and will deliver the November patch in the normal schedule. Sorry for the incompetence(inconvenience), Best Regards, Nokia Support"
It would be this easy but instead they went silent...
I don't understand, the US seem to have pie, where the phone hasn't been officially released (to my knowledge), but here in the UK, where it was officially released android pie has still not been released

i think, more accurately, Hong Kong has Pie and those of us in the US forced to buy this variant for any LTE whatsoever got it, too.

Hi, anyone facing this problem after the update? I'm pretty sure before the update i can play Netflix in HD.

Well on an Honor Play telegram group a member said the same thing I'm afraid .. I'm still on Oreo .. which is scary to know that it could downgrade you widevine security level ! That's definitely odd
Same issue here. Widevine at L3
Can anyone who is still on oreo confirm this ?

Sent from my HUAWEI COR-L29 using XDA Labs
For my device, COR-L29, both Android Oreo and Pie have Widevine Level L3.
Looks like all Pie updates downgrades Widevine Level to 3, the Huawei P Smart 2019 has the same problem. The Honor 8X with Oreo has Widevine Level 1. I hope the Honor and Haewei brings out a update soon to get Widevine Level 1 again. Does anybody has information about this?

Maybe if we report it in an official honor forum they will see it. But is there a global forum? I only found the india one.
Same here, can't even open Netflix, it says "device error"... ( after reboot it doesn't say it again)
UK L29 was L1 before update to Pie.
Now L3.

Well that's obviously an entirely different problem.
I contacted Honor support Europe about Widevine today. The only thing they say is 'keep checking Facebook and Twitter'..........I have the feeling that Widevine Level 1 is not coming for our phone.
yeah. it's L1 in oreo and L3 in Pie. unfortunately
Can also confirm this. L3 on Pie.
Does that mean though, that it's just a software bug and that it can be fixed?
Any hack / patch for this out yet?
Edit: Ok, so some more info regarding the situation after I have talked to the support guy from Netflix.
Apparently the Honor Play is not supported and never has been (according to the support guy), hence why it is not on the list of supported devices.
I asked him, whether there could be devices, that support HD playback but are not on the list, which he denied.
However, my Nokia 7.1 is not on the list and it does support HD playback (there is an HD icon, whereas there is no icon on my Honor Play).
There is, however, one more thing. On the list of supported HD devices, there is this:
Motorola DROID Turbo 2 (XT1585) *HD playback only on Android 6 (Marshmallow)
Out of curiosity I checked the latest firmware for this phone and it is 7.0 . So I guess there have been cases where the HD functionality disappeared after an update.
Maybe some Motorola DROID Turbo 2 owners can confirm?

Well that's weird cause Netflix comes pre-installed on the device I think it's Huawei matter to resolve hope they fix it they just need to be aware of it and acknowledge it

Hi to everyone,
I've installed the latest build of the Xiaomi eu weekly rom (9.12.9) and when I use bluetooth devices for the audio the sound is balanced mostly in the left channel, I know that there is an accessibility option to partially fix this issue but there is a very high lost of sound quality. I also experienced this issue with the Extended UI rom but thah was fixed by flash the latest firmware of the official MIUI global build, but this fix didn't work with the xiaomi eu rom. If anyone have some suggestion please let me know.
Thanks in advice.

Try enabling Dev settings and change the Bluetooth codec
Sent from my MI 9 using Tapatalk
Can anyone here who owns a Zenfone 8 please tell if it supports LHDC bluetooth codec.
U can check it in settings>system>developer options>bluetooth audio codec>see if there is an option for LHDC (it can be greyed out option as well)
I'm currently using Zenfone 6 and want to upgrade to Zenfone 8. I have Oneplus buds pro which supports LHDC. So, I wanted to know if Zenfone 8 supports this codec.
Thanks
I just checked on my device and I can see the LDAC option but it is greyed out.
