So this morning I noticed that 8.0 is available for my device, single SIM XZ Premium. So I immediately upgraded.
After testing things out, I found out that there is no way to get notification dots and PiP to work.
As for the dots, the dot does appear on the App icon. However long pressing the icon doesn't bring up any notifications. I only get the standard delete and app info options. And for certain apps the quick launch functions, such as New Tab for Chrome etc. I can't get notification dots to work. I made sure I didn't disable it accidentally, as it took me a couple of hours to comprehend what the hell notification channels are, and what Notification dots are called in my language (hungarian).
But no, I have it enabled on a system level, and on an app by app level as well. For the apps I've tested. Messenger, Viber, some misc. apps I use. I've read that on Pixel phones, only the stock launcher supports the dots. Is it possible somehow the Xperia stock launcher didn't get support? Would be a major oversight, but I mean it is possible.
Also PiP doesn't work either. I checked, and it is enabled for all my apps that support it. Tried it with Netflix, Chrome playing full screen video, VLC player. For VLC you have to also enable an in app setting, but it still doesn't work with any of them. I can't try with YouTube since my country still doesn't have Red. Also I heard the Google Maps app is still rolling out pip in updates, so I didn't bother with that either.
Is this an issue for anyone else too, or am I missing something?
So far I'm enjoying Oreo, my phone became super fast, which shocked me, as I didn't expect this much of a speed difference. Animations look a lot smoother. And I'm really starting to dig this new notification channel thing. Really helps me customize all my different app notifications.
I have only been able to get pip working with google maps and chrome when playing a video, but I had to try it twice for chrome to actually do it, since then it has been working without issue though. For notifications I have the same thing where the quick options show up but not the notification, to view the notifications I still have to pull down the notification bar. I tried netflix and youtube but pip refused to work, it just kept going to the homescreen, I haven't tried vlc.
I will also say that I am enjoying Oreo and how much faster the phone is, it shocked me as well because it really is significantly snappier when jumping between apps or going back to the homescreen and opening something new. I have also actually started using the google assistant and some of the features it provides.
Just install internet beta from Samsung... And you have picture in picture...

Interesting. I've tried out Maps just now and it indeed does work. I don't know what's the problem with the other apps then...
Notification dots still don't work though. Also I haven't been able to use the instant apps either. The option never comes up. Wish shopping app supposedly has an instant app version, but no matter what, I can't use it in instant version, Only full install.
Also adaptive icons aren't that adaptive, as the stock Xperia launcher has no option to choose which icon variation I want to use (square, round, teardrop etc)
I also haven't been able to figure out how to use the Autofill framework, which would give me the same options for autofill within the OS as I get with Chrome on web forms.
These features seem to be just straight up missing, or I don't know where to find them.

How did you do that by the way? I'm trying, but I can't seem to do it. I almost got it once, but the PiP auto closed as soon as the transition animation finished. Tried it with Chrome and Chrome Beta.

This applies only to the browser scenario, and NoChromo is better. Also, biometric login not supported on non-samsung devices = useless.

I went to a gaming site that I knew had videos, once there I started playing a video in full screen and then double tapped the home button and it put the video in pip mode. Maybe it only works with certain websites or online video players? I will try a couple other sites and see if they all work or not.

Okay I managed to make it work with IGN videos in Chrome. So it does work after all... sort of. I think we can still agree this isn't working as intended, the fact we have to pry to make it work.

Ya there seems to be something missing here, hopefully they will fix this within the next couple of weeks. I was really looking forward to using pip with video streaming apps.
Is there any way to use YouTube in PIP mode?
edit:
I can't move apps in menu wtf? When I press and hold app and move its go to home...

That's what we're saying, we can't get pip to work with youtube, netflix, or vlc. I really want to use pip mostly for youtube and netflix, so until I am able to do that I really don't care that much about this feature.
You can still move or delete apps in the menu, but you can now decide what press + hold on an app does when going to the settings of the app folder/launcher.
Update
I have downloaded Nova launcher and Lawnchair launchers, and neither seems to support the Oreo features, but instead it seems they have their own implementation of app shortcuts and badges.
So the problem has to be with the Xperia Home launcher.

Youtube currently blocked the workaround with the 'window' keycode. however there's OG Youtube - it's a modded youtube which has a recent youtube version as base. It has PiP, background playback and an option to download the video. Although the PiP is what i'm looking for. So far there are no downsides. You need to get XDA labs which has a pretty cool repo.
Try it here https://labs.xda-developers.com/store/app/com.google.android.ogyoutube

PIP works with VLC. Enable background playback in VLC settings . Only thing is it doesn't work like chrome where you just have to press the home button. In this case you have to select PIP mode(bottom left option in the attached screen shot) before you switch to any other app.
You need youtube red subscription for pip.
1. PiP works fine. Though you need a red subscription for Youtube in order for it to work with Youtube.
2. Instant apps work fine for me. There was this tetris game I was able to play without installing.
3. Autofill works fine too.
4. Long tapping the app icon doesn't seem to bring up notifications. Disappointing, since I was really looking forward to that feature.

There are plenty of features that are not here..... Another obvious example is the xperia dialer app. which is on the same 3.0.0 version as it was in August and looks nothing like it's advert.
It's more of a marketing thing. Look here! Look here! Shiny!Yet I believe most of those presented features will arrive at some point in time under Oreo and that's why they were presented - not as a done thing but more of a 'soon to arrive'. FYI notification dots are still not available on the beta release. Hopefully more updates will come.... sometime.... maybe spring next year? :laugh:
Didn't know PiP required YouTube red, useless, it's like YouTube is trying to destroy itself with everything they do recently.
It seems like we are in a full beta test, and would go on until oreo 8.1 would be released.... It's astonishing Google Pixel and Pixel 2 have a lot of problems and bugs with oreo update XD

Is it possible to multitask and keep things running on the background?
Like having a videocall on skype and browse the internet without the camera stopping.
Or listen to a song on youtube while the screen is not active?
I saw that there are a few multitasking tweaks (in pimp my rom, i haven't tried them myself), i was wondering if that would actually do what i want.
You can download Floating apps. there is a browser called OverSkreen. It will stay on the screen while you are in other apps.

I think skype just keeps running in the background while calling, doesn't it?
In that case, yes you can. Otherwise, like the person above stated, you need something like overskreen browser.

the camera feed will disappear and go black as soon as you do smething else. I have to switch from front to back camera to get it back.
Overskreen is a good suggestion, but i was hoping more for a setting / tweak that would apply for all apps
Google has began a phased role out of it's popular YouTube app for Android, and while I'm not sure you guys have gotten it yet, I opted to share it here with you.
This version is special for a number of reasons, but the ones that stand out are:
- A totally redesigned UI and app icon
- In app multitasking
- Resizable video windows
See for yourself tho... it's as easy as downloading the apk below, installing it and launching the app.
Enjoy!
Yeah, nice effects, BUT:
- The font rendering is sh*t. Some lines (e.g.) in "H" are much too thick. Not understandable.
- Why is it en vogue at the moment to use light grey text on white background? WTF? The Tablet Z has really good contrast, but even on it some text in the Youtube app is barely readable. Don't begin to talk about how it looks on a 2012 Nexus 7...
I don't care about nice bells and whistles if basic functions are worse than in previous versions.

Hmmm... guess I haven't played with it enough to notice any of the issues you mentioned. I'm going back in and will be looking out for your findings.
so which is better..
this one or the updated youtube from playstore?
or its just the same.

I tried both and they are the same. YouTube 5.0.21 has a nicer UI but it is not one I would call a grand improvement over the previous version. Video resizing was added; normal, full screen, and small. Problem 1: It took me a while to figure out how to stop a video; you have to make the video small then swipe it off the right side of the screen. WTF? Problem 2: The PLAY/PAUSE button is constantly displayed in the middle of the video except when it is made small. Again, WTF? I uninstalled the update and went back to the factory installed version of YouTube.
Edit: After my fourth reinstall of 5.0.21, Problem 2 finally solved itself. How? Only the Android gods know. Problem 1 still exists.
This problem I don't have.
The problem is when i play any video through wifi or in HD mode, the video get stuck or stop loading in about a couple of minutes after i click play button. I tried to switch to 3G or play in HQ mode, the problem solved. However, i like the HD mode better. And I have a 15Mbps connection through wifi! Anybody experiencing the same problem?

Hi all,
I'm a new Z3 owner, coming from a HTC M7. This is my first time with on-screen buttons and unfortunately, am not liking them so far. It's fine on the home screen, because they're transparent. But when in an app, the black bar takes up valuable screen space. Hate it. Any way to make them transparent everywhere or just hide them and bring them back with a swipe?? Why isn't this programmed in there already!?!?
Thanks in advanced.

You can hide them on the G3, but I dont think thats possible on the Z3. Flashing a ROM with support for this should fix the issue.
Not possible without flashing a custom ROM, unfortunately there aren't many custom ROMs available yet and you will lose a lot of features (as well as permanently reducing your camera's performance) if you go this route.
Try and get used to them, they are designed so that each app can take advantage of them differently.
Browsing through your images or playing a game, watching videos using the Play Movies or VLC app all make them disappear automatically as you describe.
There are several apps on in the Play store that will force immersive mode without root, just search "immersive mode". I have used the one by "Pieter Pareit" and it works quite well on most apps. If these darn app developers would start supporting immersive mode this would not be an issue. Better yet, it would be nice if Google had an option to select apps you want to run in immersive mode (like G2/G3).
I have an Honor 8,chinese version FRD-AL00.(rooted)
The problem is everytime i clear the memory the phone kills the app completely. Ex- the app "messenger" or "whats app" , if i clear them from memory (clear ram on multitask window) i no longer recieve notifications.I have to always leave them opened on the backround.I also tried removing them from battery optimization and it didnt work.

Just lock the app on recent apps windows (a little lock sign on upper right corner with x sign). every time you cleaning apps don't swipe that app you don't want kill.

Man, I am living with this problem for more than half a year. I did find a somewhat tolerable solution - it is not exactly elegant but it might prove helpful. So yes, after playing with every possible parameter in settings , I also came to the conclusion that nothing really helps except keeping these apps minimized in the background. So I decided to just find a way to hide these minimized apps from the "recent apps" so that these don't interfere with my other activity.
Finally, I managed to find one humble app which does exactly that (you won't be able to find it by the name in Google Play, hence I provide the link).
play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=comapede.app.versteckeapp
The instructions might not be exactly clear - you have to install the app then access the widgets from your home screen, identify the Hide App widget and drag it on the home screen. At this point you will be presented with the list of all apps on your device and you would need to chose the app you want to hide. After doing so, a widget for this specific app would be created (which looks identically to the app icon but works differently). First, make sure you discard the respective app from the recent apps, then, to enable hiding, every time you launch the app, you need to do it from the created widget (not from the icon). Obviously, you can repeat the action for all other apps you need to hide.
This worked reliably with Nova Launcher on Android 7 (EMUI 5.0) and continues to work after updating to Android 8 (EMUI 8.0). I also have Chinese ROM (not rooted).
As for the reason why this happens - I have no clue. I don't exclude that it is a software bug that is quite rare on honor 8 devices (otherwise I would see more people complaining).
There is an interesting aspect though - while I have been using my FB messenger for a while like this (this was the only way it worked), now I am able to access the app from its native icon and discard it from the recent apps and it still receives messages instantaneously (same about Skype, Viber). (I don't remember if this is related to the update). Yet for other apps, like KinScreen, Light Flow, ACR (Automatic Call Recorder) and many others, if I run the apps from their icons, the moment I discard them from recent apps, they are shut down completely.
Hopefully this works out for your

No just downloaded and sideloaded OTA and it updates without wipe. The only new features I don't see implemented is the new gesture system, it is still using pill style from Android P.
And this which is odd to me.

I saw it on Telegram first. I believe @63c posted something about it. I had read an article a few months back that said Pixel's would be getting beta this way but super surprised to see mata firmware on the Play Store.

Anyone's check VoLTE after flashing 10.0 ??
No volte for me, (f*ck!)
just a note, cts is broken in q beta. you wont be able to use any safetynet apps like google pay or pokemon go or some banking apps.
It's here but not the most stable. Some apps and games don't work. Pixel Launcher crashes in startup, a few launchers I've tried don't work at the moment.
Working fine here. No app problems or crashes yet (but I'm only a few hours in).
My thoughts:
"Full gestural navigation" is difficult to use. The pill is too small to grab, and it makes app switching difficult.
Sometimes the nav bar comes back when full gesture is on (in the keyboard, for example). Pressing the back button will click on both the back button *and* whatever was behind it (an app in the launcher, for example)
2-button navigation (like Pie) works as it always has.
The app switcher draws below third-party launchers like Nova and Action Launcher. After about 1 second, the launcher disappears and the app switcher is accessible. Makes for a very buggy experience. I assume this is to allow launchers to perform an animation during the transition, which simply isn't implemented yet.
Dismissing notifications can only be done by swiping right now. Swiping left sets the preferences for notifications from that app.
How do you enable full-screen navigation? I am not seeing that option under settings.

Just wanted to mention, you don't have to initiate the gesture from the pill, whether you're swiping up to go home or swiping right to switch apps, you can do it from anywhere on the "navbar" for lack of a better term.
Edit: For the full gesture system.

I opted in via the beta app before I went to see a movie, when I came out I had OTA notification, so within 2-3 hours. Some stuff pretty broken, so I would only recommend using if you're a developer or don't need this phone as daily driver.

This is a second phone for me and when I saw the new beta 3 phone list I turned it on and downloaded the app., approximately 9am Eastern. I hadn't used the phone in 3-4 months so there was a waiting notice to upgrade to the lastest Android 9 security patch. I hoped it would ignore it and go on to Q but of course no luck. The security update ran ok but no Q so far?? Don't have a sim in it presently, hope that doesn't stop the Q update over Wifi.

FYI I had several apps crashing: Gmail, Outlook, Amazon Prime Video, and Amazon Shopping.
The fix was mentioned on Reddit but if you have opted into the beta for the Android System Webview you need to opt out of its beta in the Play Store, then disable and reenable Android System Webview.
So any apps that rely on Webview can probably be fixed that way
