Always On display - OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers

Hi!
Monday I've bought my new OP6. I used it for about 6 hours before I installed the software update with the May security patch. Now, before I installed it, I was capable of using the Always On function that was available in the Settings menu, keeping the screen on with the clock, battery level, messages, etc. After installing the update, I noticed there was only Ambient Display available.
I didn't read any comments about this subject yet, but did anyone else noticed this as well? Maybe it was something that didn't make it to the final software?

Always On Display was removed on the latest update.
I hope to see it back soon, I loved the look of it.

What were the changes in the recent update? Just security patches? Maybe it would be better to hold on with the update, not to lose AOD.

Okay, so it wasn't just me luckily. Hopefully it will be back later on. Thanks for the replies.

From what I know:
1. The option to hide the notch was added, it was only an info before
2. Camera slow motion
3. The AOD was removed
@Donnie Sins
I hope to see it back in beta (at least). I had an OP 3T before and was on beta since it started.

There must have been an issue with it then. Hopefully it'll make a return as I do like using AOD. Could have been screen retention issues or a drain on battery I guess.

microsoft patch tuesday update

Just read on Microsoft news that were due a big update today,so just done a scan and indeed there were 13 updates ranging from flash to a hardware update but by mistake I press the update button so I didn't actually see what all the rest of the patches actually did it came in at about 120mb anyone got any info as mine currently downloading
I didn't get the "System Firmware Update - 12/11/2012" until after installing the other updates so be sure to scan for new updates a second time after rebooting.

I had a "System Hardware Update - 2012/12/11", and it was available in the first list of updates. No "System Firmware Update" after the first updates.
Can now have more columns on start screen.
4 columns? How do you set that up?

You can't, it's a bug.
You can just tilt your screen

Can you see if you are still able to lock screen rotation via the brightness menu?
[UPDATE]
For some reason my screen got stuck in one direction, and the rotation lock button also disappeared. A quick reboot and she's buzzing along.

Agreed. I rebooted once and it looked like this for about a half hour
Oh, and it does appear that multitasking/switching apps works a little smoother for extended periods

You still can.
Just applied the update, not noticing any difference yet, except that IE10 asked me if I wanted to re-apply recommended safety settings, to which I said no, because I have turned off MS's flash whitelist so I can use the Napster website.
Haven't noticed any difference to tell you the truth, in fact mine seems a little slower
mine is a lot faster... placebo maybe? but i bet it is faster..

I am on a VIVO Tab RT and I noticed faster performance on my tablet as well.
I'm still unable to connect to my TV with a third-party MicroHDMI-HDMI cable, so I guess I was expecting Microsoft to correct this issue...
Can't say I notice any difference in performance either.

Nougat update is out. Find any differences?

I saw myself 3 mobiles getting an update today.
I've updated my phone today as soon as I received the notification.
Details about update -Android version 7.0, Build: NPJ25.93-11.
List of BIG changes that I observed:
1. Boot animation - It is completely revamped and now says "Hello Moto" with an iconic voice every time you boot up the phone. Just found out that it can be turned off in Settings>Sounds.
2. Internal memory pumped up - This is a big surprise for me. My available free memory was 7.3 GB before the update and now it is 8.22 GB. It is a very good thing.
3. Battery backup seems to be improved. This is my one day observation and still needs more observation of course.
4. A special Moto action is added called Swipe to shrink screen. (meh!)
5. Fingerprint sensor can now lock the device. Power button is safe forever. Unregistered fingers can also put phone to sleep.
6. Toggle WiFi, BT, Data etc. in one tap if you pull down notification bar once else if you pull down twice you get to choose from a list of devices.
7. Device temperature is now nominal while charging.
8. I don't see network related settings like 2G, 3G, 4G selection per SIM. It is all grayed out. I think it will choose the n/w on its own.
All other N features (split screen, notification in-line-reply, better recent apps preview, etc) are known. So there is nothing special to say about that.
Cons inherited from Marshmallow:
*** Hidden LED is still kept hidden. What a waste!
*** Although device is locked you can still swipe down notification bar and toggle all the important and sensitive controls like WiFi, Location, Bluetooth, Data, Airplane mode. This is really an insecure feature.
I'll keep updating this as I go on finding something new.
Other changes are mentioned in changelog on Moto website.
P.s: Go for the update.
How many treads about this?

BTW: No root for it (as of now).

I have flashed my moto g4 plus with official soak test nougat. But I didn't receive any notification for official nougat. Will I get a notification or will I have to flash it manually using official nougat update?

You should get the update according to sources. Maybe you will have to wait for a while.
Well if you don't get it you can always downgrade to 6.0 to start over.

Tap the gear like icon under Settings/Security/Screen Lock. You must find it there.

So far so good.
Update was successful.
The double tap to wake causing the screen waking issue seems to be addressed. Let's see.

April 1st patch
The newest today's update is only 173.4MB, but what's in it? I don't see any specific descriptions beside the security patch.
Now, what about that ASD4 update(in OP post above, 244.55MB) I've never gotten that one in the US, they mention camera software improvements in there, am I still gonna get it? All the different regions create lots of confusion.

Impromptu update?

10.0.0 (QP1A.190711.020.C3, Sep 2019)
Seems like it was posted today..
Anyone flash it or know what it's for?
https://developers.google.com/android/images
Perhaps a fix for sensor issue?
I'd flash and see but ugh.. I have my phone set up perfectly including Google Pay.. May still do it, I'm sick like that!
i know right i didn't wanna flash it since we are a week away from the October build but will there even be an october build now?

Pretty sure there will be. The C3 indicates it's a hotfix release so that shouldn't impact the normal schedule.
So....did anyone flash it yet? Lol
Got it via OTA toda, 1335 MB on C3.
haven't seen anything different, lol.
Can confirm that this build has fixed the swipe up issue for unlocking not working properly - but still suffering from the screen goes blank when on a call (to ear) and then does not turn on again when viewed unless various buttons pressed!.
Got a new update as well
I got it this morning. I have not noticed anything new.

I have that issue, and I'm still on 9.0.
I was chatting with the Pixel team yesterday about something unrelated and was trying to get any info about the C3 update. Instead, I got very evasive runaround about how there is no approved communication. He didn't act like he didn't know what I was talking about but just wanted to change the subject since he wasn't going to say what the "hotfix" was for. I guess this their new strategy after still not disclosing the difference between .19 and .20.

Yeah, they used to be very up front with what the differences are in the builds. Usually they were carrier specific. If I had to guess, this new update fixed some huge security issue that they needed to fix ASAP before the bad guys could take over our phones.

Just take the OTA like good "sheeple." Don't worry about when it will get there, and of course you'd never need to root and block all of those glorious ads.
I flashes this new release yesterday and I may say it is big...I'm still going deep into what's new but haven't found anything relevant yet.

Is that the issue of swiping, or the proximity sensor info not causing the screen to reactive during a call?

Proximity.. I wish that while on a call, no other involuntary touch action could activated... Until hanging up or pressing a deliberate action.
Apparently a hotfix for the sensor bug went out 5.5MB for other pixels... (see the stickied sensor bug thread) Makes you wonder if someone made an oopsie in our case?
I noticed my phone a little bit colder after this update.
It's a pretty big update! It's the same size as the official Android 10 image. Weird.
Any of the 10 features that we haven't gotten yet in there? Like the customization app or whatever? New AOD clocks? I can't remember what all else we were supposed to get. I don't have time today to check it myself.

Slow fingerprint unlock

After updating to march security patch my fingerprint unlock has an awful delay, wondering if anyone else have the same issue and if there us any known fix.
Already tried removing and re registering the fingerprints,no luck.

Yep same here. If I wake the screen first it's fine (ie as before the update), but now it takes maybe a second to display the screen. Someone posted on Reddit too, but nothing on the issue tracker- hope this can be fixed
I guess i will wait a few days, hopefully the issue get fixed, dont really feel like doing yet another factory reset
Same is happening here.
Anyone else notice the new animation when exiting out of an app? it sucks lol.
Seems like turning AOD on is fixing the delay. Not perfect but works
Same slow here
Also have the same problem too. Wish I didn't install the update now
Yeah, same problem on pixel 4a 5g.
Same here, also my battery life is bad and I'm not heavy user. I have 6h sot.
Did a clean install, and still a delay.

exactly ... same with the missing alarm clock icon in notification bar when an alarm has been set
Same thing on aprils update , how annoying. It really ruining the feel of the phone.Google really need to step up for bug patching and broken updates
Still the same issue with the build of May ... also, the alarm clock icon is still missing in the notification bar when an alarm has been set. That kinda sucks ...
