Nothing much to talk about. Kind of a useless update.

Still, no equalizer

Sorry but don't know anything about equalizer, but I think double tap to wakeup is not working, I mean the gesture bug is still there?
Also the multitouch bug is still present.
Can't comment on camera performance.

No, double tap to wake up is working for me..!

Double tap to wake which was working for me till the last update stopped working right after this update for me.

Some apps have stopped working.
The SonyLiv App will crash when trying to play video after the latest update. Prime Video will work, as will YouTube. Lots of work still to be done on the software side.

The SonyLiv app is working after deleting Cache and App Data. Thank you very much.

Phone rebooted
Experienced a reboot with .311. This never happened with .309

Is any one checked that Activity launcher is working or not? When I open app crashed immediately. Any solution?

Issues noticed so far:
* Camera flash is disabled except available only in 'Auto Mode'
* Screen Multitouch still lags
* Fingerprint doesn't work many times
Anyone facing battery drains at faster rate after this update? And also skipping percentage?

PIE update - Mate 10 Pro - LIST OF PROBLEMS / ISSUE'S

Like the Subject title reads, can we start a list of all the known errors discovered in the Android Pie update, for the Mate 10 series phones?
:highfive:This will be a great thread to see if it is worth upgrading to Pie, for us still stuck on Oreo.

I have found 2 issues so far
1. recents doesn't play well with 3rd party launchers(workaround is to disable emui launcher trough adb)
2. Navbar has delay for 1 sec after adapting to colour of opened apps when using 3rd party launcher
Had some few glitches like gps icon stayed turned on while nothing was using gps and gpu turbo floating icon stayed on after exiting game.

Apparantly the new Gallery App is also not that great:
"The new photo gallery is a crap ,, whats the point of creating a new allbum called all photos ??
I miss the old one ,,,
And the worst thing is the new signal bars on the left with notifications !! What the heck is huawei thinking ?? We don't have a notch ,, this new emui is bs update"

As mentioned, Nova also buggy:
"So far, nova launcher is buggy, especially animations, and the previously working google cam port stopped working"
&
"Nova working fine here with the exception of recents and gestures. "

And also uses more RAM than on EMUI 8 / Oreo:
"EMUI 9 is soooo ram hungry. Dropping below a gig here from light use and everything is refreshing. "

Well dont know about ram. Its same for me as before
atm while doing nothing its sitting at 3gb just like in oreo.

Only problem I have noticed is that's sometimes apps just went to recent by itself... usually when I'm typing - chatting. But it's overall fast to go back , sometimes it's annoying. For me ram management is ok, just like in oreo. Few graphic glitches here and there.

Maybe that's the reason, I hope that they will fix it soon :fingers-crossed:

I think in oreo there was like 1 second delay when pressing on screen and then trying to press navbar. it woudnt allow you to do that right away.

I'm getting the strong impression the Pie update, for the Mate 10 series, needs some more fine tuning. Maybe, with some updates it'll get better.
Let's get those bugs listed guys! :highfive:

Don't see a difference with the "super macro" mode in new camera software

MATE 10. The recent apps screen is ****, if you hit the one app that's halfway hidden on the side you just get dumped back to where you were without opening that app.
The camera app in my mate 10 eats up literally 600MB of RAM wtf? Also RAM usage in general is higher almost than EMUI 8 on the Mate 10, where I had 2.2GB free most of the timein 8.0, now the usual is 1.8GB, so that's 400MB more of RAM used for EMUI 9.

Yup, I also had this problem - it does bug me, typing a message and kept clicking home. I changed the nav bar to be hidden and use gestures now (swipe up for home, swipe left / right for back, swipe up and hold for task manager). This works for me!
Couple of other things I've noticed - takes a while to archive a gmail email in the notifications - there's a delay which wasn't there before.
Ran a AnTuTu benchmark - previously it was around 200,000 - its now reporting about 160,000 but apart from the gmail delay (above) the phone still feels snappy! I then saw the performance setting (under battery) and switched this on to re-benchmark - got around 210,000 this time.
I've switched performance mode back off for now.

It should have been obvious I guess! When I switch the performance mode on clearing these notifications is much quicker - this is the only thing I have really noticed in terms of speed with / without performance mode in the first couple of days.

The point of this thread was what exactly? To copy and paste the same exact thing from OnePlus Forums even though everyone knew that the Open Beta dropped yesterday?

Well, I didn't see a thread here related to Beta-1 being available and unless everyone on XDA also reads the OnePlus community forums, it's probable there are people out there who don't know Beta-1 has been released. I also figured this could be a place to discuss bug findings and fixes/workarounds in a forum where, in my opinion, the technical skills of the average poster is higher and that we would see better problem reporting and solutions rather than posts on how to revert back or about when will Q stable be released.
Now, regarding your post, what was your point in posting your comment?

I was just curious. It makes more sense when you put it that way. I just figured @funkwizard is gonna make a post about it soon since he's usually the one that makes official posts about things related to OnePlus. There are already a few other bug posts about the beta so I just don't see a point in having multiple posts about the same thing cause then it just confusing and certain people like to ask the same thing on multiple threads instead of searching and then people have to answer the same questions people ask when they post the same thing all the time.

Dropped. Meaning as landed, released, came out, etc. ??*

Stating it's for the 7 series is not technically correct as 7 pro 5G is once again left out and not considered or taken seriously

I get that when I try Nova or Lawnchair launchers, it will always revert back to the 3 buttons. I also got stuck while playing Fallout yesterday. I had the gestures turned on and could not get out of the game. Swipe up (home) or swipe up and hold (recent) wouldn't work. I was able to finally go back to the launcher by going nuts tapping randomly on the screen but that was as interesting bug... stuck in a game.
RSA still hasn't bothered updating their token app for Android Q, it still thinks my phone has no network connectivity (cell or WIFI)

Android 10 Encryption :/
Is there a workaround to acces the "/" partition when magisk won't work? Or acces an android q encrypted internal storage?

You can switch back to gestures after setting a new launcher but I'm not sure how stable that it, the OS might want to revert back a few minutes later.

I believe this has something to do with how the phone handles other launchers. When you are in another app for some time and then go back to home screen, the launcher gets opened which resets the buttons.
Already reported to OnePlus. I think others have also reported this to OnePlus.
If you want to consistently reproduce this issue, Just change the default launcher to OnePlus launcher and back to Nova, you will see the navbars reset

Battery life seems much better than DP5 for me. It has only been 24 hours of course so it's not long enough but I lost 6% battery for 3 hours at work while on DP5 it was closer to 20% for 3 hours of light use.

Interestingly the gestures now rotate with the phone meaning to exit you must swipe on the horizontal edge.
Does anybody know why we don't get the dark mode? Pixel has it but why don't we? I don't mean the bad "forced" dark mode in developer options.

Use force dark ui in dev settings. Although I don't recommend because apps like Facebook and suck don't have dark mode and text will be unreadable

While I had override force dark on my ambient display became completely gray? I'm guessing it's just a system wide color inverter

Unfortunately the navbar will keep switching back on reboot/launcher change until OP fixes it. "Officially" the gesture navigation should only work with the stock launcher (since elements of the navigation are in the launcher itself), thus changing launchers will kill it (even though it is clear that the navigation works just fine without using the stock launcher). The reset is most likely caused by leftover code that checks if the launcher can provide the navigation gestures + recents, and if it can't, it disables the gestures (then proceeds to load recents + nav gestures from the fallback launcher, which is the stock one, but the reset still happens).
As for when the home gesture doesn't work. Try opening and closing the notification drawer, that usually fixes the nav gesture issues for me.

General Miui Global 12.5.1 Stable ROM - Likes & Issues

Hi ya'll,
I'm coming from Miui 12.0.5 Global on a RN8PRO and I have to say this OS is a downgrade but the phone itself is an upgrade. If anyone knows how to fix this or if they get an update which changes this before I do, please let me know.
Issues they changed, which wiegh highly on how it functions:
Silent/DND: I can only setup one schedule which sucks cause I like to have my phone turn on at a different time on the weekends
Individual App Notification Sounds: I was able to go into App Info > Notifications > Sound and change what sound file it plays but apparently not all apps are capable of doing this and I checked to see if the app is the same version, and they are on the RN8PRO vs RN10PRO
Likes:
Smart devices on the pull down menu
Better auto brightness on the RN10PRO but might be due to the AMOLED vs the IPS screen
Integration of the Google Page if you swipe to the right of the home screeen
Fingerprint scanner on the power button vs the back on the RN8PRO
I'll continue to update as I use more and figured it out...

Miui 12.5.4 arrived yesterday on my Redmi Note 10 Pro (global).
So far pretty good, but I've noticed a couple of bugs.
The wallpaper zooms in for some reason and there's no way to fix it. I ended creating a larger wallpaper with a blank border to avoid it. It may be related to brightness adjustments.
If you disable one of the SIM cards, it still show up in the status bar (before the update, it didn't).

this bugged update . music player notification problem . long delays in browsing through storage . messaging apps like telegram notifications not showing message notifications . mxplayer crashing while playing video . zip and rar files not extracting in file explorer(default one) . and much more problems . notifications are nice though .

After updating to 12.5.4 it just became worse the whole system as a whole... I unlocked the bootloader and went back to 12.0.15 which is much less laggy and works great for my needs.

Hello on 12.5.3, i can't change wallpaper on launcher and lock screen. I Can chose, but itis appears black. Someone have this problème ?

I've applied a few months ago, so I got a notification about a week before that A13 beta will be available soon, so I can upgrade my ZF8 to it.
Everything's fine, but I found a few bugs and/or issues:
- no matter what the brightness setting is, when the phone's screen awakes (with a double tap in my case), for a fraction of a second it's on full brightness, but then goes back to the set value,
- I had an issue with the touchscreen one time, but after a lock-unlock everything went back to normal,
- I had a custom system mode setting, which is now completely missing, only the 4 factory defaults are present (High performance, Dynamic, Durable and Ultra durable); I was able to set lower CPU / RAM speeds, but now these settings are gone,
- there's a power menu besides the settings gear when I pull down the notification bar, which is unnecessary IMO, it's right where the settings was.
Other than that I find it more usable than the A12, and the battery life seems to be a bit better in my case.

I'm using a plain black background because of the AMOLED screen (it consumes less power this way), but I'll check it for you.
Does it have a separate menu item in Settings? I haven't found anything related in Display.
Google’s dynamic color engine, codenamed monet, grabs a single source color from the user’s wallpaper and generates 5 tonal palettes that are each comprised of 13 tonal colors of various luminances. These 65 colors make up the R.color attributes that apps can use to dynamically adjust their themes.

Does it have a separate menu item in Settings? I haven't found anything related in Display.

Monet is Android's theme engine that changes the color of the UI to match the wallpaper, if nothing changes when you apply a new wallpaper then sadly it might be not implemented with this update too.
