1st update on my Indian Moto x4 - Moto X4 Guides, News, & Discussion

Hey guys just received 1st update from Moto let's see what's all improvement done.

Yup. They sent it out yesterday. Says it improves depth mode. I tested it and I should say it does have slight improvement however I still experience foreground blur on my face and my body. Don't worry i won't post any selfies ? here ? . But I'm still kind of disappointed. Anyways, if you want better foreground focus in portrait mode, I suggest using the paid version of "Camera FV-5" app from the playstore. It doesn't have a very strong blur like the stock camera, but at least it manages to focus properly. Other software improvements I'm yet to test but so far I'm really glad that at least motorola (lenovo) rolled out an update!

After this update battery seems to drain quickly

Sounds stupid but... I have something like that and after restart, everything is back to normal again.

It sounds like Oreo is just around the corner.

I hope the memory management, and lag in apps like play store and Twitter shld be gone with Oreo. Really annoying. Anybody else have this problem or it's only me??

just a piece of advise, if your phone is doing good, then there is no point to upgrade. my upgrades killed the SOT, and i have to factory reset it.
just bear in mind there is no way u can downgrade or anything
I have not received any updates since v1.17.11.
+1...no new update
Same, no updates since v1.17.11

Yes I’m not gone upgrade to future version until Android P arrived(wherever take that).
Vivo lately fix something and broken something else with September software update.
I’ve made the last one because I had trouble with push notifications from various app that from time to time didn’t work normal and was really annoying.
I’m talking for previous version 1.18.4 that got earlier September.
With all previous version didn’t had any kind that issue.
Fortunately current newer version seems until now resolved that issue had with 1.18.4.
I’m gone monitoring it.

upgrade arrived this morning

I'm not really trusting this updates anymore
Global version any news?

Hello
I started the update and then I've read your warnings:silly::silly:
Reboot correct for now
I noticed a very fast gps localization as I launched Google Maps probably faster than before. I had some disconnection during my bike sessions. I'll tell you later if it has improved
Tell me if you want me to test something in particular
This update is supposed to bring better network speed and call quality and bluetooth...
I have not tried any of those really I cant comment on those, but maybe I imagine things but it feels that the last update was faster then the new one... maybe.. it will feel as fast again after I let it run for a while.. and I have put all apps in memory etc...
Snapchat did lagg litte bit.. first time... it did not with the last rom..so.. I dont know.. maybe it will be back to same speed tomorrow.
so take this with a grain of salt but I would like to try the two roms side by side and compare app opening times etc.
New update 1.19.5(Chinese version)
So far 2 days now everything good.
Not having any complaint.
Battery life solid as before,push notifications working normal so far.
Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Pro
2nd day everything runs good as suspected it takes some time to fill up Dalvik chache for the system.
Only lag I see is in snapchat..but it could be that snapchat is just a crap software... I cant remember if it did lag before I think not..
Battery life feels better now, maybe it is because I run Rootless Pixel launcher now, but it feels better then before also.
I see no reason to not install this update.
thanks.. in download now...
Now I get the new version and everything works fine.

Notifications issue got resolved but battery drain issue is back.
Sometimes it is behaving normally but sometimes it is draining very fast.
Yesterday my phone went from 15% to 1% within 2mins, while i was just using whatsapp with no background apps running.
Battery is draining faster than before.
No update here actually PD1805F_EX_A_8.12.0 is last update available for my NEX...
But when u loose 14% in 2 minutes... howto say... i'm not excited...
Did u full charge cycle 3/5 times after update, u don't activate extra feature like visual notifications eye candy feature who drain battery for nothing ?

UI Lag fixable with a reboot

Hi peeps. I recently bought a Poco X3 and yesterday i noticed pretty prominent UI Lag. Apps stuttered while opening. While using whatsapp opening chat threads felt like using a 4 year old phone. After scrolling through threads someone had suggested rebooting and after i rebooted the lag was gone and it was smooth as hell again.
Anyone else experienced this scenario? Any permanent fixes?
Any help would be highly appreciated guys
Thank you!
Same here. I just hope they'll fix it on the next update.
I've been facing the same issue man since I bought my Poco x3 in Pakistan..seems like you're from there too idk..and it happened like this that I felt stuttering and slower animations..when multitasking..and also whole scrolling in WhatsApp..it really didn't felt smooth..this happened on both 60 and 120hz..now after the mui 12.6 update..I'm running it on 60hz and without restart it's going smooth for now..have to see how longer it stays like this..there's no other prominent issue with the device except this..just needing more software optimisations I guess. Also man can you tell me that if after restarting Ur device runs smoothly for how long..because the same happened with my device too but then the lag kept on returning..
Also I'm curious..if you're running on mui 12.6? Can you check the update settings and see if you can view the update log..or the what's new button..because I can't unfortunately..it's a bug as people say with this current update..but If you can check and tell me then it would help

yep i'm from Pakistan. Probable that it' something with our variant? but feels good to know that it's not only me so the probability of a faulty device is ruled out. But to answer your question, i could not rule out the exact time after which it starts lagging again because since this happened it kinda became an anxiety; figuring out when it's gonna die down again
so i rebooted twice after that. but i highly doubt it's a hardware issue. probably software. Sad after investing 40k but let's see what happens. Fingers crossed!

Also with this current update have u noticed the game crashing call of duty..with a black screen during gameplay of the battle royale mode..?
the 12.0.7 update is somewhat an improvement. The fingerprint scanner seems faster now but the phone still starts descending into lag and stuttering after some time but it seems as if the period has become longer. Now it lasts 2-4 days after a reboot....

Question April Update Exynos UK

Currently downloading the new software update on UK Exynos with April Security Patch. Hopefully this fix's alot of issues we are having! 1.3gb download.
At least the GPS issues, the audio sync issues and my wifi issues seem to be fixed
Let's see how this firmware holds
Yes babyyyyyyy
AVCJ - 1400MB almost - HUGE!
Same update here in Slovakia. Have to find any difference yet. I hope that Android Auto got fixed, gonna try tomorrow.
Well, noticed nothing new here, Twitter still a mess. What about photography ?

Same sh**t. lot of noise indoors
The audio lag bug seems fixed. But at still a lot of lag in the UI, notifications especially, and yes noise in photos. Not really much of an improvement. My patience with this phone is wearing really thin. Time to sell it and never buy Exynos again.

I got no faith in Samsung rectifying this one. The hardware is just too throttled. Only so much software can do

But isn't the UI lag in the Snapdragon model too? Did you have any reboots so far? I got a black screen a few minutes ago and a soft reboot... It sucks.

Yes. It's not big, but it's there.
I'm using the Snapdragon with "AVC9" FW build.
Today i've get on Romania update for S22 Ultra Exynos model and after this update settings button from camera app doesn't work (camera force close without error). I've tried to delete cache for camera app (problem was still there) and after that i go to fastboot menu (poweroff, connect cablu to my laptop, power on + volume up) and there i reset the cache partition and then accessed the last option "fix applications". Now settings button on camera work again. Before was ok!
PS: second problem was with S-pen... in middle of the screen doesn't receive any input (aprox. 10x10mm was disable but with finger work without any issue). This problem disappeared after I restarted the phone.

Question New update C.07 Global/C.08 India

After the clown fiesta of c.05 global/c.06 india I am hesitant on instantly updating the phone and would rather to wait for other user's reviews. As someone that are unable to unlock BL because deeptest keep on failing, how is the new update for anyone that are currently using it? What's your sot etc.
C.07 Global here all fine (2days) usage nothing wrong no lagg no bug same battery as 6
