Hi yall,
tis my first post, so please have mercy!
I'd like to know if stock android oreo on my huawei p10 is worth it.
I'd also like to know if I could retain the button based navigation I got used to (came from iOS after many years) while having stock android as well.
Plus, if there's a way to keep the bokeh effects of the cameras (front/back) on stock android (default camera app, unless there's a way to configure the lock-screen shortcuts )
Thanks a lot in advance for your answers!
peace:good:

hey, it's pretty safe to say that all of the functions featured above (home button navigation, portrait mode, etc.) will not be present when installing stock android because huawei is the one responsible for them being in your phone. Unless you are committed to losing these features, it's not worth installing stock android oreo.
I see the new Camera App included in the latest Pie Update includes the Night Mode and QR Scanner features.
Is there any way to get that new Camera App installed on Note 9 running Oreo (without upgrading to Pie) ?
Why just not upgrade to Pie?

Pros and cons list ?
Benefits of Oreo (useful features that Pie lacks
Benefits of Pie (useful features lacking in Oreo)
Could be an interesting list for Oreo fans to compile and useful in general for users wanting to make a choice.
I will start by saying I preferred the multi tasking / split screen method in Oreo.
For Pie I quite like the often underrated in my view, value of more recent security updates .
For the sake of clarity my Note 9 is Exynos model on the latest version of Pie and I have been happily using Pie since beta versions on January 2019
Yes, I like Oreo's split-screen better. There's already some really good Oreo vs Pie threads that list out many of the likes/dislikes and pros/cons... well worth the read.
So getting this runaway train back on track I'm just wondering if there's any way to install the new Pie Camera App on Oreo ?
Interested too
It did not work on Oreo. I tried several programs to update Oreo and blocked my phone. It had to be reset. I went to Pie and I'm so happy.
Hi folks!
I think is better Oreo camera app, because you have in the same screen both buttons: Picture & Video, usefull for use the same fx like beauty modes, etc..
Thats is why I downgrade to Oreo
Hi! I notice as soon PIE arrives, that we need to slide between photo & video mode. With Oreo in the same mode you had two buttons in the same screen: one for pic another for video...
I had to downgrade to Oreo, do you guys know if with some update this feature as been fixed in PIE?
Thanks!!!!
Judging by the numerous complaints of issues with the new A10 updates, it looks like OneUI with Android 10 is NOT ready to replace Android9, yet it's rolling out as OTA upgrades. I predict it won't be long before people regret this new update and want to roll back to A9. I have a U1 variant and haven't gotten a prompt to update yet. It seem like a good time to fire up adb and disable the packages that are responsible for updates.
Anybody love the new OneUI w/A10 they got on their N9 via OTA? What's good about it?
I haven't had any issues and know a few others that haven't as well, but we are a small amoint of people, so yeah.
I really don't feel a difference between Android 9 and 10 with the exception of how dark mode is implemented now. That's honestly it for me. Battery life for me on the Note 8 and 9 have always been meh, but so has every other phone for me with the small exception of the Xperia Z Ultra and LG Optimus something big. Whatever the big one was.

I went back to Android 9 a couple days ago. To me, and this is just my opinion, 10 feels like 9 to me. And the sad thing is Samsung considers this a major update so that means the 9 will not see anymore other then security patches.

Google did state that Android 10 would be a significant improvement over Android Pie. Whether that is the case or not we have yet to be certain. But it is safe to say that Android Pie for the Note 9 will not be receiving any security patches now. As Samsung will only be releasing patches for Android 10 for the Note 9 from now on.
That is what I meant. 10 patches not Pie

On 10 and loving it. Miss a few good lock options. Battery life has been great while gaming compared to 9. I read a lot of posts here and have not run across any issues yet.
This is what I am waiting for, more news of good or bad experiences with A10. I am very happy on A9 (I have U1 variant) and I dont want to click update yet because I like it how it is. I hate that they stop security patches tho. Dark mode means squat, I have themes that work for that. I also use good lock features alot. I guess I will keep postponing the update till I see more threads about it. The silence is weird, normally there are pages of complaints after a new version comes out.

Iv been on 10 for awhile now, and i have noticed its a little sluggish. Flashed in odin, then i performed a factory reset and it is still sluggish. Hoping for an update soon
Yeah, comparing A10 to A9 (stock) is a different comparison than OneUI A10 to OneUI A9 (Samsung's) ... and that is because one of the major differences with stock Android is that A10 finally integrated dark mode.... But Samsung did that with OneUI on A9, sooo... I have OneUI with Android 9, everything is dark, it all looks good, and I like it. Also, nothing seems buggy.
It doesn't look like there is any reason at all to upgrade to OneUI w/A10, unless I like to take my chances and see if Samsung bugged up a rushed release.
I actually really, really, hate white apps. So if OneUI with A10 integrates dark mode into apps much better than it does with A9, then I would consider the upgrade, for Google apps like gmail, maps, docs, etc.
Good points from all. It's not that Android 10 is bad, it just doesnt seem much different then Android 9. For me the gestures were horrible. I'm sure peeps like them but just not for me.

Android 10 OTA has been great for me - getting better battery life and everything smooth and fluid. No problems whatsoever, and I just did the upgrade OTA, no clean wipe or anything like that (thankfully). Did use Galaxy Labs App Optimiser and I do believe apps open noticeably faster afterwards.
P.S. Still using navigation gestures as I was on 9 and notice little difference.
How are the gestures in 10 different from 9?
I have no buttons on my screen. Bottom right corner swipe up goes back to previous screen. Bottom middle swipe up goes to home screen. Bottom left swipe up shows all running apps.
Is OneUI/A10 different than that?
Someone can tell me how is the volume on Android 10 compared to Android 9? Is it louder or similar?

i think you are using 3rd party launchers? because the new full gestures can only be used on samaung one ui launcher
I am in San Francisco, with unlocked US Note 9, and have not received A10 update.
Has anyone on here in the bay area received it?
If needed, point me to another thread for this question.

Stock full screen gestures (no buttons showing) in settings > display > navigation bar. This is built into OneUI/A9

so you mean to say you dont have the new full screen gestures of android 10?
bdw your fullscreen really shows fullscreen apps?
I've had A10 for a few days now, and besides one small glitch (commas and periods are doubled when I press the icons, and sometimes the space doubles also using the space bar), I've had no issues with it.

I mean to say that I am running stock A9/OneUI with fullscreen gestures built into the OS (not from a third-party app), and from what people are describing about the fullscreen gestures in A10/OneUI, they are not any different. And yes, my fullscreen really shows fullscreen apps--no software buttons.
Ive found that A10 and UI2, cannot handle gestures and fullscreen mode any where near as well as A9 UI1.
Ive tried A10 twice now and both times, from a full wipe, the fullscreen/immersive mode messes up the A10 gestures. Whereas A9 can run fullscreen (no buttons, no taskbar, full immersive for all apps) and use gestures without any issue, and with just one swipe.
You try using proper fullscreen/immersive on A10 with gestures, and it takes two swipes to do anything, and Edge Panel Apps just gets ruined, as you cannot swipe open any more. There must be some conflict in Fullscreen/Immersive mode.
I use bxactions to toggle Fullscreen/Immersive from the Bixby button.
Just upgraded to the beta Origin OS Ocean on my Vivo X60 Pro+, loving the new OS, haven't had chance to fully go through everything, the New Camera App seems easier to use, although no new functionality. I like the new dialler as well. Has anyone else upgraded and what do they like or dislike?
It's superb, the only annoying thing is the home screen swipe up function to call the widgets / kits screen. I'm using a few scrollable widgets which sometimes doesn't work correctly, instead the white widget screen appears when swipe up. Since I didn't find any external app I guess this is integrated into the launcher now. I replaced the launcher because of this
I like the new camera app because the up-down swipe now controll the exposure and the left-right swipe can in- or decrease color strength.
Which version are you using? I have version PD2056D_A_5.5.5
I thought it was the global version, but there's a lot in Chinese which is bothering me for not understanding. It's still android 11, will the android 12 version come soon and maybe fix this version that says global but isn't?
There are some reports on pda.ru that camera performance has got worse. Do you experience something like that?
Other than that do you face any problems?
i using orgin and global rom
I feel Orgin auto focus and AI better than global rom

I'm waiting for the ocean OS android 12 Rom. Who knows it may come as a global version, but I think it took a while for Ocean to come out with android 12, at least I didn't receive it
Hi!
I have a Chinese version of the device and originally it was a Harmony OS 2.0, but then it's upgraded to 3.0
unfortunately I see no option for Smart cover case
Who knows how to activate it in the menu? What could influence it and hide from the menu?
I ve checked Hall sensor in Sensor Box app, it works fine, but on the level of OS the function is not activated
