[Q] Questions about CM10 FXP on Xperia J - Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E

I've recently got Xperia J and flashed it with FXP 206 and then moved to FXP 207.
I love it, but i've encountered some bugs that are said to be "officially fixed" or there are no mentions abut them at all.
1. In Settings->More...->Mobile Networks->Network Operators should be list of available network operators. Unfortunately there are some lines, but each of them is labeled as "Unknown". On lock screen, operator name is displayed correctly.
2. While Charging, notification led displays battery state correctly (red while low, yellow, and green when full), but any notification (missed call, application notification, low battery) makes LED pulse pink/violet (blue+red, red slightly shorter, you can observe color go blue at the end of each pulse). You cannot modify that behavior in display settings (pulse length nor color can be successfully set).
3. Offline charging, "Fixed since FXP 204", does not work.
4. Camera (Gallery) Force Closes after recording a video. Starts working after deleting video (problem with creating thumbnail for camera? Camera shows thumbnail of previous picture just before FC)- Known problem. Is there any fix? Camera MX crashes right after clicking "camera" icon.
5. Phone eats through battery really fast. 1,5 day with phone lying on my desk, 2 SMS messages received, no WiFi, 2G mobile network with high signal level. Battery stats show surfaceflinger (Android System) to consume 40% of energy.
6. Music stutters. I know, it is known problem, but maybe someone has some solution. (I have used ROM provided by adfad666, music was crystal clear, but lock screen was lagging - sometimes for more than 30 seconds - and receiving phonecall made the interface freeze, ringtone to stutter, and after that device rebooted. Every time i tried).
7. Less serious bug: sometimes after turning GPS on and starting some app which uses it (any app, ranging from Sygic Navigator to Google Maps or GPS Essentials), the GPS icon does not show up, and only network location is used. After reboot everything works fine (same place, so not a problem with GPS signal level).
Any helpful hints about problems mentioned here?

[UPDATED 2008-10-09]Request for testing band switching of CommMgrPro in Raphael

Hi.
I am solving the issues of CommMgrPro with Raphael. The most important were.
1) CMP didnt change the band correctly (2G <-> Auto <-> 3G)
2) CMP didnt set correctly the speaker volume.
Any help to see if those issues are gone in this version will be wellcome with free licenses
Version V2.2(2008-09-12)
1) There are towers on each country with same cell id. So now the primary key for Cell Mode will be CellID + LAC. CMP will convert your database so make a backup before and will fill the lac information each time it finds a cell with lac equals 0
2) Compatibility with HTC Touch Diamond and HTC Touch Pro (Fixed Band manager, speaker manager, GPS manager and some GUI changes).
3) New option to repair the database.
4) New page for connections option (In connections/menu/options)
5) Option to disable/enable connections on roaming
6) Option to CMP startup delayed on page Options 3.
7) Option to Show/Hide the main window after start CMP.
8) Clicking on the higher part of the battery bar opens the battery page
9) Clicking on the lower part of the battery bar opens the battery page
10) Hide button is raplaced by calendar button.
11) New Today tab. This dialog lets you see the next events that will happen in the place, including calendar events, "Always on" schedules and other events (time limits, etc)
I´m on it!
I´m curious to see how much battery economy this will bring when switching off 3G? I´ll post my findings. What do you mean by speaker volume (in call?).
thanks
Belive me, it really save your battery if you swith off 3G mode. My battery lifetime increase from 8 to 26h.
Regards

Hi Daniel,
I'm expecting my Touch Pro on Friday, I'll report as soon as I can.
Manni
So far so good on the band...
I´ve tried all day switching between 2G and 3G and it seem to work seamlessly, which comes as a huge plus for me to save on battery when 3G is not needed.
One thing I don´t get.. the HIDE button. CMP is hidden but how to unhide it without having to press the icon to launch it again.
Update: Yes it asks for the PIN but naturally it has to since it´s reestablishing a connection to the Celular provider.
Regarding band switching - it works sometimes because sometimes CM just reset himself (generate errors)
Another thing is that if I'm switching from 3g to 2g is asking me for PIN
When I'm doing it mannualy (GSM to WCMDA switching) system never ask for it.
B.
Hi
In the options page you can set the pin code. In this way CMP will enter automatically the pin when switches the band....

Well, I usually assign a hw button to CommMgrPro. Raphael has few buttons so I assigned long press phone button to CMP. CMP installs a Today plugin and a tray icon to manupulate CMP directly from today screen or bring it to front but you cannot see them with touchflo 3d. Sorry for not saying it before, you can set pic code in options dialog so cmp will enter pin code automatically....

No, system volume. You can control ring tone and ring volume as a action associated to enter/exit in a profile/place (using cell ID)
It was short and 5min test - I'll check everything once again tomorrow and let you know.
Regards
B.
For those who want to check the 3g effect on the battery live. There is a tab on CMP that shows graphically the battery evolution in different scales of time and if you touch two points it tells you the speed, for example, 6 units per hour. Ok, let your device during some hours in 3g and check the drain speed. Do the same test using 2g. As you will see battery live lasts double (or more) using 2g...
Great Commmanager Replacement
Testing for about 15 mins now and so far no problems.
Although the ON/OFF switching for phone with the "no time limit" function is not very responsive. I had to click another icon before i could switch it on again.
Great work on the battery graphs very useful
I will report tomorrow after some intesive usage.

hehe I see to tested it deeply. Turn on phone with time limit was disabled one month ago because the people requested in this way. Anyway I will remove the time limit dialog to avoid confussion....
CommManager replacement is only a little feature. The main one is let CMP (CommMgrPro) to set the state of the device (phone, band, BT, WIFI, speaker, connections, beam, messaging, brightness, ring tone, today theme, call forward, open and close programs, etc) depending on your current location by cell id (home, work, cinema, etc) and weekday/hour. In this way the state of the device will be different on your work&monday&10:00 than on home&sunday&13:00, isnt it?
Dani
Hi
I ve uploaded a new beta (b6). It warns if you want to change the band but you didnt set the pin code on options and a few more things. If you look at the screenshots on first post you will see there is a screen dedicated to the current (different than the battery page)with two lines, one for instant current drain and other for average. In this way is easy to check the current (in mA) needed for your device under different circunstances (wifi, band, gps, etc) and the temperature of the battery (important for the people like me having problems with device not charging if running gps/tomtom in a warm day).
ps: Talking about gps and temperature, finally I bought and A/C mount system so the battery's temperature is always low and no problem charging....
Hi Daniel,
So I received my Touch Pro today, and the first program I installed was CMP
Couple of issues:
- I installed without deactivating Touch Flo 3D, so I got an error message when the program first launched (I guess it couldn't launch the today plugin).
- If I deactivate the Touch Flo 3D, the icons in the plugin are stil QVGA. Same thing if you change the icons of the location (which makes it difficult to select the right one, as they are not for the software where the seem to be on the screen, if you see what I mean)
- Same thing for the fonts on mostpages / menus. Most of them are very small (hard coded for QVGA I guess) which makes them much harder to reads than on a QVGA device. The location line, or the function icons at the bottom of the main screen, are normal size. Everything else is small (for example, "there is a newer version").
- When Touch Flo 3D is activated, there is no directaccess to CMP (lower right globe icon), but I guess that's normal.
Otherwise, everything seems to work fine. I guess most of this is VGA related rather than Touch Pro related, but here you go, I'm coming from CMP on a Tytn II...
Edit: forgot to specify that the speaker setting and the band switching seems to work fine.
Hi
Thank you very much for your comments and help. Fortunately most of those issues are related with the sizzo vga skin so can be changed modifying the file skin.xml. Modify and enhance the vga skizzo skin is one of the pending things to do. Please follow reporting anything you see
Hi Daniel,
Done a bit more testing today, and I found out that there are two connections in CMP (T-mobile PicMessage and T-Mobile Internet), while I have only one connection setup by default (T-mobile).
They are both enabled, none of them is always on, and only the PicMessage is connected.
Is this normal? I'm quite sure I had only one on my Vario III. Which one do I need to get my push email? If I want to get my exchange email as it arrives, do I need to switch one of these to always on? (by the way, my exchange server is setup properly, and it works thanks to MrVanx...).
Hi Manni
CMP shows all the connectios,even hidden connection. Probably in the connections wizard your operator set up the second connection for other pourposes like mms,wap,etc.
If you re using direct push(like me) you dont need to mark any connection as "always on" because activesync will keep the connection alive....

Thanks a lot for the clarification!
I've tested both b5 and b6 versions on orygial HTC rom.
Discovered that :
1. Cannot clear history of battery usage in CURRENT tab - on BATTERY tab this feature works fine
2. Cannot verify database integristy - error message appear
3. Switching between G2 and G3 works smooth - tested VERY intensivly for last 3-4 days.
Small hints
1. there are two graphs on main screen - on the left is graph for battery and on the right for available field. Is nice of you if you can just create the link between battery graph on main screen and CURRENT/BATTERY tab on settings. This is common problem that Touch Pro battery has very short lifetime and I'm very interested in checking which action is draining my battery more than normal - graph is perfect place for this.
5. Last suggestion for booting TP and application starting process. Everytime when I'm performing soft reset or just starting device, I'm waiting to put my PIN as fast as possible to get my TP online, but THEN CommManPro LOGO is showing and grrrrrrrrrrrrrr I'm must wait next 5sek to tap my PIN.
You know, this is not a problem if you are using your phone for private, and there is no more than 3-4 calls from you sister/girlfriend/mother/lover by day, but I'm using my TP for buisness (and testing everything in the same time) manner so time when I'm available is critical - one missed call (because of 5sek delay) and couple of bucks less in my pocket
If it possible for you to just pospone CommManPro to starting just after TF3D it's nice!
Regards

Honor View 20 Bug List

As many us are using the Beta Software of Android 10 on View 20 , it would be a good way to list the bugs that we face so that all the users would have an idea of what and how polished the new software is. Please post the bugs that u have faced till now.
Till my last 20 days or so of using this beta... The main concern is of battery life. The Screen on time is reduced by almost 1hr compared to previous version of about 5.30-6hrs. Other than that the software for most part is fine. Am really surprised that I actually did not find many bugs in this beta. There was only 1 time that Netflix closed forcefully.. other than that I never had any force closing of apps. I can use it as a daily driver. Share ur feedbacks too
PCT-L29
10.0.0.171(C432E10R2P5patch01)
When playing audio from an idle state on an external output device, if Huawei Histen is uninstalled then the first couple of milliseconds of audio will be extremely loud and then the volume will suddenly ramp down.
This only happens when starting audio from an idle state. Changing tracks or audio apps while audio is already playing will not trigger the bug. This also only happens with external audio devices such as wired headphones or Bluetooth speakers. It does not affect the internal speakers.
This is different to the known issue where the speaker gradually gets quieter when constantly playing audio.
Only bug I see is the app install screen is quite ugly.
But otherwise great speed and battery life.
I noticed a bug in the Dark mode. The notifications turn to white when you open/close the notification panel.
PCT-L29 10.0.0.171(C432E10R3P4patch01)
1.When i slape my finger (gestures) on screen to close any working apps the list is not showing immideatly. Right before that there is some freezing and i must do this second time for do what i want.
2.Seriously lag in PUBG MOBILE when the graffic is increased + the official joystick Beitong H1 who i buy after phone stop working suddenly!!! When i enter after that crash in game center and click on the icon with the joystick shows text "Expect Soon" WTF!?
Calendar widget it is not scrolling good, if want to scroll down or up it open suggestions bar or app drawer, and sometimes if want scroll are stucking...
Slide down from top spelling mistake " pm"
Can't believe this one got through, look at the date
On the last FW (10.0.0.195) I have problems with chromecast discovery. It works fine imediately after reboot but the next time I try to use it, no app can find it, not even Google Home.

HELP needed with Note 10. GPS accuracy issue, overheating whilst using Android Auto.

Hi
I've tried to find relevant info here but have failed...
Right were do I start?
I use Samsung Note 10 heavily for:
Android Auto
-Navigation (Google and Waze)
-Spotify
-Youtube Downloader (to play sound in the back ground)
-phone calls
GPS status app installed with A-GPS data updated.
Phone screen is always on with Courier Exchange app that uses GPS location etc
1. Main issue I get is GPS location accuracy whilst in big cities with Google maps (Waze is similar) , during navigation my position is shown with a delay and very often drive past the street I suppose to turn in or my position jumps to a street next to. After a stop for lets say 5-10 min if I start to drive again it takes about 60 sec until it picks up my location correctly again. Navigation works fine on motorways and in small towns.
I do use magnetic phone holder (the one that goes into a vent and with metal plate sicked onto a back of the phone) - could this be the issue? (never had that problem on Sony Xperia One) . Compass is calibrated and seems to be working correctly.
Phone additional Google accuracy settings (WiFi) needs to be on as this is requirement of CourierExchange app.
2. Second issue I get is phone overheating and slowing down dramatically.
As I've mentioned before I use Android Auto all the time ( for about 8-10hrs a day) , phone is charging constantly (fast charge off) and I do use Spotify / Youtube Mate to listen to music in the background. Had to switch off screen animation to speed the phone up.
I do have "Power mode" switched off for maximum performance. Phone gets very hot from time to time and tend to slow down, google maps scrolling on the vans unit slows down. Sometimes phone doesn't react on touch too.
Am I lacking the RAM here? Is the constant charging an issue (phone needs to be connected via USBcable to use Android Auto). My vent where the phone is located is closed so no hot air blows on the phone directly.
Is the phone simply too slow what I do or there's an Issue whit the phone? Phone is 3 weeks old and don't have many apps installed on it..
I did use Sony Xperia One (with magnetic phone holder in exactly same spot) before and due to its size and lack of dual sim option have decided to go for Note 10 (not 10+ which is too big). Sony worked so much faster and absolutely no issue with GPS between high buildings. Also I'm a little worried about lack of battery care by Samsung (or am I wrong?) as I constantly charge phone, Sony here was learning my habits and after some time didn't allow the phone to be fully charged whilst using Android Auto - had Xperia XZ1 Compact before and this one was also faster then Note 10 and after 2 years of heavy use battery is like new....
Can anyone help me resolve above issues? I still have the Sony One and thinking of getting rid of Samsung if the issues continue - this is costing me money.
For any help and advise what to do I will be very grateful.
I also experience the GPS issues you explain. Sitting still at a stop light and suddenly it's recalculating because I'm suddenly on a side street 500' away. I've never noticed any heat issue while using AA. I do not use any kind of mount. Also, my wifi calling often fails due to location unavailable error.

OnePlus 7 - OxygenOS 11 stable - Issues

Hello,
Recently i upgraded my OnePlus 7 to OxygenOS 11 via OTA, and here is a list of a few annoying bugs(features?) that you'll need to know before upgrading:
(Note: I performed hard reset after upgrading, so any bugs here will be persistent and not because of some fixable issues, unless you are rooted/want to use adb maybe?)
(Also, this is the stock OOS 11, not rooted, and no modifications)
1) I'm not sure if it's just me, but the device heats up much faster. Though the temperatures here are high, I tried to maintain as close to a lab condition as possible, maintaining 30C ambient temp. Evaluation was done with a session of Call of Duty Mobile, and Youtube 4K video loopback test. Avg temps are: CODM : OOS 10: 41C, OOS 11: 45C, Youtube: OOS 10: 37C, OOS 11: 38C
2) Performance hit in games and frame drops (CODM, outside the ambient temperature maintained conditions), could be due to overheating? (As i mentioned, ambient temps are a bit high here). Also SystemUI lags sometimes. Adding to that, trying to bring up notification panel while playing a demanding game (like codm), the SystemUI (notification panel) opening animation is really choppy. (Is there some graphic driver issue?)
3) Brightness slider very slow to respond (seriously? Have to wait for 3 sec for the brightness to come up/go down on manually moving the slider)
4) Again, this one could be only me, but the audio seems to be a bit low after the update. All the ringtones and default notification sounds, with the same volume levels feels lower than how it was on OOS 10.
5) Battery drain - Device heat up and performance issues, translate to higher battery drain
6) This may not be a bug, but it's a change that i don't quite like (at least provide options?) : Double tap to wake doesn't give a vibration feedback like how it used to.
7) Everything, including UI and default font size is bigger than what I'm comfortable with (no, changing the font/display size doesn't give the expected results). But there's a workaround: Changing the display dpi from developer options from 384 to 420.
8) I had several app crashes (Instagram, Photos) even after disabling Android System Webview as suggested by some. But this issue seems to have been fixed magically for now.
9) This is a change, but to actually poweroff/reboot, you will need to reach your finger to the top of the screen with the new UI.
10) DC dimming has been removed
11) Weird QC issue-Someone thought any greyed out field in settings is because it's not supported by phone or HEADSET... Even in Private DNS settings.(See screenshot)
12) Natural colour calibration has a weird yellow tint (sRGB profile works fine tho)
13) Lots of missed/delayed notifications. Many times, notifications from apps like Instagram, Telegram doesn't arrive on time, with delays from 2 minutes to never arriving at all. Whatsapp seems to work most of the time. Sometimes, notifications don't make sound (weird), but only flash on the screen (Yes, I've verified all my notification settings, and I've set everything to make sound)
14) Now this might be a personal preference, but I don't quite like the way OxygenOS is trying to mimic OneUI (Huge heading and small contents beneath? Not my taste.) This style is followed in the phone, messaging, contacts, calculator, etcc
15) Quickly switching between recent apps, there's a split second of a black screen that appear before the app UI is displayed (not complaining, but this was not present in oos10, it seamlessly moved from the preview of the app on the recent apps screen to the actual app ui without any flickering, and no, this is not because of dc dimming being off or anything)
16) Google Play Music is still not removed (seriously, why still have it if it can't be used?)
17) FileDash - No longer has the DNS resolver for one.plus address. You will now have to manually type in the address displayed by filedash in your browser. Also, it still uses 2.4GHz and not 5GHz.
Edits: Added more bugs/missing features
Hem981,
I can confirm #7 is an issue on mine as well.
The power menu is an android 11 change not an OOS change.
I upgraded from OOS 10 to OOS 11 no wipe and don't seem to experience the other issues that you are having, except the obvious changes they made to the firmware. Have you tried clearing the dalvik-cache and rebooting? Mine was super buggy before doing this, but then again I just upgraded without wiping.
One issue I've personally noticed is the cell radios were a lot better on OOS 10, and I'm assuming that is the cause of the battery life to be worse.
Another that could be due to doing some debloating is when I take a screenshot and the little preview pops up in the bottom right corner if i click on it the UI will freeze after clicking back. The Nav buttons still work, like you can click on recents and the recent menu appears, back and home work but the screen is frozen otherwise until I force a reboot.
Yeah, I've tried factory reset and then wiping dalvik-cache... The performance was better before i performed the factory reset, i think. Anyway, there are quite a few games/apps where the performance impact is easily visible. Also, the power button thing is an Android change, but i really hoped OnePlus to have done something to make it more easily accessible (OOS is not pure Android). I couldn't find the issue with the cell radio you mentioned (as I've tried in areas in which i already had poor reception, and the performance was what was expected). Anyway, I really hope some of these (at least the performance, battery drain and the brightness slider issue) will be fixed soon over updates.
(For me, the SOT has gone down from 9.5 hours to 7 hours under similar use cases)
Yeah SOT has definitely taken a hit on mine as well, standby time seems the same. I also have noticed that the screen brightness needs to be set higher for the same brightness as OOS 10. The cell radio sometimes seem normal, but most of the time they are about 5-10 dBm higher at my house. I'll probably give a clean flash a try this weekend to see if it clears up.
One more issue found:
Weird red tint on screen auto dimming
The whole display has a weird red tint just before the device is about to lock/turn off screen after the timeout, when the display dims. It is easily noticeable if you have a white screen displayed. It only happens if you have set the brightness slider to anything other than the bare minimum (even a single step above the minimum brightness is able to replicate this issue)
I found something interesting: issue #3, the brightness slider being slow to respond to changes, seems to be fixed by disabling all animations from developer options. Should the window animator duration scale have any effect on the responsiveness/quickness of display brightness adjustment? I think that's stupid.
Also, I am starting to thing we need something like 0.1x duration scale for the animations (all animations on Android, or at least OOS), because honestly, with each new implementation, the animations are being too slow that it degrades the whole experience. 0.5x feels a bit better, but i really think something like 0.4x would match the animation speed of android 10.
You forgot to mention the vibration motor effect which has deteriorated since the update. The device now feels like any other cheap device.
It's kinda weird in my situation, just upgrading from 10.3.8 using an old version of xXx NoLimits to 11.0.0. The phone was super buggy when I first installed, but after rooting, wiping the delvik cache, debloating, removing the xXx module, and time to settle in the only issues I have are the screenshot popup, and the lower cell signal which I'm sure is causing a hit on battery life.
I was going to reinstall this past weekend, but for the time and inconvenience it's not worth the time compared to the minor issues I have.
Edit: Even the screen resolution seems normal now.
Again, don't know if this is an issue for anyone else (and i don't think OnePlus is going to change this): While everything else became bigger on the phone, the buttons/number keypad for typing in the screen lock pin became too small.

Hi! Oneplus 7 ownere here.
Try to answer all the points:
1) i don't notice any difference between OOS10 and OOS10 on the heat of the phone
2) I don't know for the gaming performance but i don't play any games...overall, the performance are good, no system lags or freeze BUT I have the same issues with the notification...when i tap a notification, I often have delay, maybe it's just the animation but I remember the same issue on a Oneplus 8t that i tried for 20 days in last November
3) same issue here, very annoying
4) not just you, have same issue
5) battery drain is the same in my case, in standby maybe is less than before
6) me too, but maybe they change this as they planned?
7) yes, same thing. i changed the DPI from developer options too
8) no crashes here
9) this is an Android 11 change from Google, maybe they don't want your device to power off ahahah
10) never had this problem luckily
11) don't know, never tried this
12) i noticed this after reading this point, true on my device too
13) i faced the same issue on the notification sound, the other things works fine
14) me too, if i wanted One UI, i would have bought a Samsung...
15) sometimes happens to me, maybe it's bad ram management?
16) this is ridicolous, why they doesn't remove this app??
17) never tried
I also have an issue on the vibration. Now it's HORRIBLE, i have disabled because it's unusable
So, this is my question: change phone or rollback on android 10?
There's one more addition to the list: Always on display sometimes seems to override the notification lockscreen privacy settings. I have some notifications put as "view private content only when unlocked", but the notification contents are visible just when it arrives on the always on display (though it's content is hidden in the actual lockscreen)
I've reported almost all of these bugs, and hopefully we will see new updates fixing most of these.
Can someone on OOS 10 on OnePlus 7 confirm if the "style preferences" settings in sound settings is greyed out while the output is phone speakers (or no other sound output devices connected)?
New hotfix patch OTA rolling out now...
Here is what's fixed and what's not:
1,2 : Yet to test
3: Not fixed
4:Fixed
5: Yet to test
6: No changes
7: No changes(or not easily noticeable maybe?)
8: Not encountered any "ghost" app crashes yet
9: No change
10: DC Dimming is not back, so no change
11: Not fixed Is it that hard to remove 'headset' text from the UI?
12: Don't know if it's because my eyes adjusted to it, but it seems a bit better now
13: Not yet tested
14: What can I say?
15: Fixed
16: The ghost of Google Play Music still remains
17: Not fixed
Edits: Nothing much is fixed
Performance: Marginal improvements
SoT/Battery: Even worse. Getting almost half the SoT I got on OOS 10 under similar use case and network/tenperature conditions
Ghost app crashes reduced a lot (that might be the only fix) , but is not completely gone (saw that 1 or 2 times)
Haptics is still as bad as before
I'm just worried about this weired bug which has rendered my parallel whatsapp very difficult to use to share media. Any fix for this is highly appreciated - https://forums.oneplus.com/threads/whatsapp-media-problem.1411292/
Thanks and regards
OOS11 - Stable
I have no problems on my device until now (for games I dont know why I do not play)
I noticed, because I have tried both roms(beta4 & stable).Open Beta4 has better "battery management" than stable! Αs strange as it may seem but is a real for me..
Well yes .Battery drain higher than openbeta4
wifi works fine to 5ghz band & generally my device works quite well so far. Patience is needed and all problems will be fixed...

After the recent OS 11 update ,the media in my device ( photos and videos) not being shown properly in Whatsapp. Some of the videos and pictures which I've already deleted in the gallery are appearing again only in whatsapp in unsupported file format.
I'll be glad if someone confirms that it's a bug in OOS 11.0.2 and that my phone is not the only one which is affected.
I'm using WhatsApp and Parallel Whatsapp. Also have setup a Work/Office profile on my phone.
Does anyone have any solution to this issue?
Thanks and regards!
For me, wifi no longer works. Whenever I try to enable it, it just immediately turns off. It also no longer recognizes my SIM card.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Try wiping cache from recovery
Update 11.0.1.1
I feel like this is a big joke.
Even more battery drain (yes, i did a factory reset).
Brightness slider issue still not fixed.
Performance still degraded (but i think there is a little bit of improvement)
Not sure about Wifi issues as i never had them.
Weird red tint on screen dimming
Still many ugly and inconsistent ui elements
Color profile is back to being broken (the yellow tint returned)
Update: I've started having the wifi disconnection issues, after 11.0.1.1 update. This is way too annoying.

Question 6a - issues

Hello peeps,
I have just received my Pixel 6A and while i am extremely satisfied, coming from a Huawei P30, this phone has definitely few drawbacks.
1. The signal strength. My phone constantly keeps dropping 1-2 bars while being in my room. (previous phone was full good signal always.
a) Whenever i call someone, before getting the signal tone, like 10 seconds have to pass with the phone being silent and then reaching the 'ding ding' tone.
b) Signal in the gym is extremely low and i almost get no reception. (P30 from huawei had signal almost everywhere inside.
c) I recorded a 5 second video in a shopping mall yesterday and i tried sendig the video to my friend 30 times using whatsapp/ viber / facebook / instagram on cellular internet and different wifi-s and couldnt send it from the mall, from my friend's house and it suddenly started working after 1 hour. (I also had the phone restarted 2 times in between to try and make it work ( unsuccesfully)
2. There is a date/weather (weather can be removed) display on the first main page on the phone, on the upper right which cannot be removed no matter what.
I have a widget that i would like to place there but i cannot since their internal date is stuck there and obstructs the place i would like to use my date/weather/time widget on.
3. Apps just stop sometimes and are non-react-ant. I always keep 1-2 apps open, and never more than that. Example, oppening instagram app > going to my profile > suddenly i cannot click anywhere, i can only close the app and open again and it will work. This happens for multiple apps.
4. No notification number on the apps like there is on almost all android phones. You should have an option to have example Messages(3) next to your Messages app, but instead it states Messages and a random colored circle just indicating that there IS a message, not how many.
Being my third day with this device, im somewhat really bothered by these minor/major issues so i am wondering, has anyone else complained for these and how come that they havent been addressed/implemented/fixed already?
Thank you for the read/input =)
The bars indicating mobile data signal strength on your phone do not provide an accurate measure of the signal strength. Each carrier and phone manufacturer has their own interpretation of what each bar represents, so the number of bars can vary across different carriers and phones [1]. Therefore, it is not possible to compare signal strength between different phone models simply by looking at the number of bars displayed on the screen [8].
Date, weather, notification dots, etc depends on your launcher, perhaps the default Pixel Launcher isn't to your liking, there are plenty of others that you might prefer.
I'm using Lawnchair 2 personally, it's close to Pixel Launcher but allows to hide At a glance (the time weather thing) and the search bar, and also has notification dots with numbers.
There is also a mod for the Pixel launcher if you're rooted, didnt try that one though.
That apps randomly close or stop is a bit worrying though, mine don't do that, well that said, it's normal that apps that rely on internet data need to refresh when you reopen them due to battery optimisation.
Aka, if you dont clear them from your recent apps then they stay open as in in memory, yes, but they still get stopped from actually processing stuff after a while to save battery.
You can try to disable battery optimisation for those apps if you don't like that.
They shouldnt be crashing though.
Unfortunately, i am no fan of launchers.
On the other side, i have just found another glitch/issue/hardware problem?
Whenever i use my phone for the calls (the thing it should be mostly used for) and use speaker instead of putting the phone to my ear, the other person will hear around 20 % of what i say.
The phone is literally 30 sentimeters away from me and ill say 3 sentences to which the other party is quiet and asks if i have said anything since the voice is sliced/muffled/cut/low volume.
Anyone else experiencing this?
Well, as far as I know, huawei excels on signal strenght due the fact that they own a lot of intelectual property regarding to that.
