Well guys from Vivo forum someone has uploaded new control Center panel from Fantouch 9.0 UI.
http://bbs.vivo.com.cn/thread-4345771-1-1.html
It said that it works fine with 6.13.13 Pie software version of Vivo Nex S.(After applying installations restart your phone)
I've tried it on my Dual Display device with Pie and doesn't working properly as gesture navigation is not working any more and after few minutes of installation,also control center swipe gesture from the bottom also after few minutes doesn't work.
But you can try by yourself with Nex S as I'm still with 8.1.
It's easy to uninstall If doesn't work on you by going setting all app-system app and find Control Center and press uninstall updates,restart your phone and everything back to normal as before.

Can you please provide the apk, can't download the control center!
Edit: Nevermind I managed to download the new control center.
Does not work on Global Version. Probably because we're still on 8.1

After few days can you provide feedback of how Pie on Nex S perform especially battery life.
It's the same as 8.1,worst or better.
Also did you do dirty upgrade or clean install??
That's very important especially with major upgrade.

dirty flash, performance of the new pie version is great. i´m not a heavy user but i can tell you battery life is fu.... awsome, i get with the phone 3 days standby by near 9 hours sot in my use routine.
if i use the phone heavier, I am convinced that I can reach the 10 hours.
system settings, no bluetooth only one sim card and wifi + mobile network in combination, no battery saver activ, apps i use are, browser, google clock, Nova Launcher, buttons remapper, phone, Fluid gesture navigation, whatsapp, twitter, instagram, google assistant, banking app, youtube vanced, amazon, ebay etc.
yeah i´m satisfied, however pie is yet not perfect like oreo, there are minor bugs but they are little not big deal, and the only thing is we can´t theme pie with andromeda and vivo don´t provide deep black theme thats ridiculous, 3rd party support too we can´t use aod, clone app etc.
I love my Chinese Nex S this thing looks beautiful has enough power, and great display and a big battery. i pray that it last a long time i wanne keep it as long as i can. don´t need other phone. it has almost all what i need (LED notification is missing ) and it is futuristic. that´s my opinion.
if you all here don´t like what i write, keep it for yourselfs i don´t give a f......
I totally agree. Pie also brought the possibility of using the screen in half with all the apps and not just a few like with Oreo. The battery lasts for me 7 hours, only 4g, bluetooth with clock connected, Blokada as a VPN block, whatsapp and telegram always synchronized. The only difference is the AOD that has not implemented any external app. I hope Paatha13 insists with Vivo to have this option implemented.
---------- Post added at 04:23 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:20 PM ----------
I forgot. I went from 1.23.5 to the first beta of Pie. Then to 6.13.4, finally to 6.13.13 without ever formatting (I have the phone since November). I'm sure that formatting the battery could last longer.
---------- Post added at 04:25 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:23 PM ----------
One problem I find is that when I pick up the phone, the screen does not turn on instantaneously for unlocking but after about 1 second. Does it happen to you too?
Thanks for the details feedback and impression with Pie upgrade guys.
Good to hear almost everything is very satisfactory.
As for AOD and third-party app notification our only hope is Fantouch 9.0.
But again Pie brought much more customization option with AOD and that's welcome movement from Vivo.

Hy everybody
I installed the Android Pie Yesterday and I'm very disappointed by the battery management.
I usually use my phone 2 days without charging it but this evening it goes down to 40% with a low usage.
Is there a way to setup the power management in order to return to normal ?

Just installed the Android O Beta and a playing YouTube video doesn't go into Picture in Picture mode when I return to the homescreen.
Has anyone had this problem and was able to fix it, or has anyone just installed the O beta and has this working without a hitch?
Didn't work when I upgraded to the beta from 7.1.2, I have since tried a factory reset, and as far as the play store tells, there are no updates available to any app.
I installed the beta version of O today on my Pixel XL through Google beta program and picture in picture is not working for me either.
It's a reccurrent problem according to some reviews on YouTube.
I also heard that it currently only works with a YouTube red subscription...
This worked for me

Get the app "Custom Navigation Bar" from Play store, enter 171 as the keycode when you create an extra navigation button. I chose the screenshot icon as my PIP button. Works great.

Everyone on this thread -- the PiP mode only works for certain apps that support it. Not all apps support it. Also, all the apps that do support it will request for your permission to use the mode.
If you go to Apps & notifications > Special app access, you will find a permission node for picture-in-picture.

Thanks, mcbeat—the default behaviour is that it's turned on for every compatible app though automatically. So, unfortunately, this doesn't help ?.
Yep not working here in the UK, what's the point in having PIP as a feature if it doesn't work properly - if it's bull**** to make me get YouTube Red - then it's not working, in fact if Google did that it would be a really **** move.

The only bug (or is it a feature?) I found till now is the color of the navbar. It's now white (don't like it). Found no way to change it back as before (black background with white symbols) Tried it with the xpreia launcher and the nova launcher.

Did you get a white navbar too?
I think the white navbar icon with white background is not a bug, when you're doing something with your phone and you're not touching the navbar area, the icons in the navbar will fade to an off-white colour. But when you're doing something that involves even just touching the blank parts of the navbar area, the icons will show their true colours.
The real bug is actually the navbar icons are way too close to each other.

I don't think it's a bug, my navbar changes color depending on app. It does go white on Spotify which is all black so it looks bad, but on other apps it does change to black like messages, Twitter or anytime I use the keyboard. I'm guessing the app picks the color unless the app isn't updated so it defaults to white.

Niceone sony. I think they are the 1st to release pie this year.
and crap, as usual my system update OTA is broken and fails to install on my H8296.
wonder if flashing a different region's firmware (initially went from Taiwan to India because the TW/HK updates are weeks behind) killed the mechanism. currently on DE and it hasn't made any difference for OTA. On to XperiFirm... Bother.
I just installed from scratch the latest update available for mi G955F (exynos S8+) but I'm not seeing any options available for either AR emoji or super slowmo in the camera app.
CSC: MXO
Build number: CRK3
Checking the camera app version that is installed it shows that it was released... according to apkmirror on July and I'm not getting any update to the app either, tried to install something from apkmirror but it didn't worked, did a factory reset but nothing happen, I'm just wondering if I didn't flashed the firmware adequately, I flash everything.
Any help/comments?
Thank you for reading my bible...

Hello all,
So I believe most of us should have the Android P update by now. I'm intrigued as to what you all think.
Sadly, the update has downgraded the experience of a great phone. Here are the issues which popped up for me after the update:
- Very slow fingerprint recognition and unlock
- Android crashes when you turn off wifi
- A noticeable drop in performance speed all round (animations are slow or clunky, apps are slow to open or to load)
- No digital wellbeing app which is a major part of Android P
- Unable to install Pixel Launcher 9
We spend quite a large amount of our time using our phones and ever since the update, the whole experience has taken a hit and now, and it's very noticeable. I'm desperate to get off this phone now, which is sad because, before the update, The phone ran beautifully without any dramas.
What do you guys think?
Have you done factory reset? I don't have any of the problems you say.
Digital Wellbeing is installed. Do the search in settings and then you can add it to the rest of the applications (there is a switch to do it).
The only problem I find is that the adaptive battery is not in place. I have to look for it in the settings. In the videos I saw of the taiwan rom it seemed that it was in settings -> battery, but in the European one it didn't. Not a big deal, but there it is.
I can't tell you anything about the pixel launcher because I use default HTC Sense.
No I haven't. I don't have the time to reset and and restore everything. An update should just work and not require a factory reset.
I managed to get Digital Wellbeing working but it needed some effort. The version from the Play Store wouldn't let me download it because, apparently, it is incompatible with the phone. Weird.
Anyway, so I had to download the APK, install, download Activity Launcher, install, then use Activity Launcher to show the Digital Wellbeing app in the app list and also allow it usage permissions. Then I was able to use the app.
Another issue which popped up after the update I forgot to mention above was that the navigation bar at the bottom has reduced in size, which is good, but unfortunately it still behaves as if it was the same size as before, so when you're typing and you press the space bar, it sometimes thinks you've pressed the home button and takes you home. VERY VERY FRUSTRATING.
One other thing which I've realised is that you're unable to use the new Android P navigation bar because HTC have their own version of the navigation bar (which is dated now) and this cannot be overridden. Another annoyance.

Sounds like you should just sell your u11+ and go buy an iphone.
Ha! Extremely sound logic. I bring up issues a recent update has introduced and your suggestion is I sell my phone and move to a far inferior platform. You really are a shining beacon of brilliant intelligence. Bravo to you, good sir.
Hi guys,
Anyone experience WiFi connection with hidden SSID? My newly update U11+ unable to connect to hidden SSID, but it is okay with broadcast SSID.
Please help. Thanks.
update:
Sorry guys, my stupidity didn't check the setting properly at the bottom of the there is setting the mentioned if it is hidden. checked the box , viola it is working now. Thanks.
although I was a little annoyed with some of the changes at the start, such as clock now on left in status bar (the rest I forget tbh), overall I love it.
same speed as always across the board; apps, animations etc. with plenty of apps/files loaded.
1 thing that's really stood out for me has been the (learning) adaptive brightness. it's just awesome!
and so are the colours. screen looks so much better since pie, very impressed.

I managed to get Digital Wellbeing working but it needed some effort. The version from the Play Store wouldn't let me download it because, apparently, it is incompatible with the phone. Weird.
Anyway, so I had to download the APK, install, download Activity Launcher, install, then use Activity Launcher to show the Digital Wellbeing app in the app list and also allow it usage permissions. Then I was able to use the app.
Another issue which popped up after the update I forgot to mention above was that the navigation bar at the bottom has reduced in size, which is good, but unfortunately it still behaves as if it was the same size as before, so when you're typing and you press the space bar, it sometimes thinks you've pressed the home button and takes you home. VERY VERY FRUSTRATING.
One other thing which I've realised is that you're unable to use the new Android P navigation bar because HTC have their own version of the navigation bar (which is dated now) and this cannot be overridden. Another annoyance.

I think it is a good idea to factory reset when there is a big version change. For small versions it is enough to clear the cache.
Regarding digital well-being, I have been able to update it directly from the play store.
I see the navigation bar well. It doesn't frustrate me. I think it works correctly. And Android P gesture navigation would like to have it as an option but I'm sure I would change it back to the traditional method, so I don't worry too much.

Ha! Extremely sound logic. I bring up issues a recent update has introduced and your suggestion is I sell my phone and move to a far inferior platform. You really are a shining beacon of brilliant intelligence. Bravo to you, good sir.

I was just poking fun at how unhappy you seem to be with things not working.
Post-update issues are pretty common, and though annoying, nothing to get too worked up about.
Just wipe and move on, it's not so bad.
This is a forum of tinkerers, after all.
Totally happy,sorry.Plus i've been able to use Quick step module(oneplus recents).I love the UI and i haven't noticed any issues whatsoever.Sound mods also working as they should.I like it better now
Haven't met all the issues you're describing! My U11+ is working fine with Pie, just as it was with Oreo!
Any one updated to Android Pie yet? Any difference in battery life and device performance?

although I was a little annoyed with some of the changes at the start, such as clock now on left in status bar (the rest I forget tbh), overall I love it.
same speed as always across the board; apps, animations etc. with plenty of apps/files loaded.
1 thing that's really stood out for me has been the (learning) adaptive brightness. it's just awesome!
and so are the colours. screen looks so much better since pie, very impressed.
