Android Q Beta 3 - Google Pixel 3 XL Guides, News, & Discussion

It's that time again. Please share bugs and anything new

Apparently if you update to beta 3 it wipes your phone but not sure if that is from ota or from factory image installation
Ok so ota doesn't wipe data

Always on display still turns off after about 10 seconds or so.. Really Google? You got everyone used to this, now it's broken since Beta 2??

I can confirm mine works fine no issues. I didn't have mine turned on before I updated. If you did you might have to factory reset

For me, I can't re-enable dual sim

Damn! Google home doesn't work. Going to try and factory reset but that's a shame because so far this beta is amazing but that's a deal breaker for me

This is F'n Amazing!!!! Great job Google !!! lol

I've installed it , it doesn't wipe anything. All I can say, is this a copy paste from iOS when it comes gestures but much less polished. Dark UI toggle is finally here. Performance seems better than DP2. Moving from app to app using gestures is not super smooth cuz some apps keep refreshing.

That really is amazing. I think it's awesome for the user to have choices. I agree with you. Great job Google! Finally we have choices, and not locked into gestures only.

Ok so after a factory reset Google home is working again. There where a couple other little issues but after a factory reset everything is running like butter. I am extremely impressed with this update. I didn't use beta 2 because I found to many little issues for my liking but this is night and day better. Im not a huge beta guy but I might be on q to stay

Stuck optimizing apps. Not sure why mine takes so long. Then I get a phone call, the update pauses, then I resume it it starts optimizing apps all over again. Ugh...

Anybody get time lapse in the camera app yet?

I'm stock and unrooted. Nowadays, stock android has all the features that I wanted so there is no need to root my phone anymore. I've been done rooting and modifying all of my other phones and tablets over the years without problems but I'm getting tired of waiting and fixing so I quit.

I'm not having any issues, and battery life improved significantly. Especially with Bluetooth on, it doesn't drain like it did in beta 1. I think it's ready for release, and I think Essential should start working on features beyond stock. Improve their camera, or just licence the Oneplus Camera.
Has anyone tried porting the Paranoid Android Camera?

OP6 Android P dev 3

Hey guys I was wondering if anybody is having any issues with the OnePlus 6 running Android P Dev 3 with sending and receiving phone calls SMS and MMS?
No DP3 is very solid for me!
So far it has been very smooth for me as well. The other day I was having issues with sending an MMS and it was because I didn't have all the permissions set.

A few people on this thread have commented here and there that they've dirty flashed without any issues. For me, I've been experiencing inconsistent battery drain although it seems like it's settling down somewhat after about a week of use. I've also gotten a couple of crash dumps.

Dirty flash here and running good. This is my second install though, both dirty flash over 5.1.9. this first time I was having some connection issues so I rolled back. Then I got bored and decided to try it again, and no issues so far this time. :good:
Can anyone confirm how safe it is to update will it be safe to use it as a daily driver?

Thanks for feedback. I may take the jump today.
Yeah so far this rom is pretty smooth no major issues. A few app crashes here and there but it's probably because the apps haven't been updated yet to run with Android 9.
I dirty flashed then did a factory reset.
Any body else have a persistent carat symbol on the OnePlus Launcher? Can't get it off no matter what I do.

Should only be there on your home screens to show that you slide up for all apps list. Definitely shouldn't be there on the dock. Did you try clearing cache in recovery? Are you completely stock on the P beta, or are you using other mods/changes to the system?

Completely stock. There are actually 2 carats on the home screen, a bigger one and the small one seen in the screenshots.
Doesn't effect performance, just annoying.
Have cleared cache from recovery and on just about every system app that it will allow me to clear it. Can't downgrade the launcher unfortunately.
My OCD won't allow me to look past it lol

The update was pulled due to a game booster issue which caused games to appear as a black screen. I'm sure they will fix it and re-release the update soon.

Damn... Is it working now? Any fix you found? My game booster isn't working like most people who updated, but at least the games are working after reseting Game booster.
I uninstalled the updates on YouTube and my WiFi started working. I then went on YouTube and updated it. All is good again. Phone appears to work much better and battery life is improved ?
Anyone have the OTA file?
Bueller? This HAS to be out there somewhere for U.S. users for RP1....??
My Camera APP crashes all the time now after the update. What Gives??? Is this purely a 9 thing or did Razer fix the Game Booster, and break the Camera APP???

Update downloads then almost instantly goes to "Installation Failed". Currently on 8.1 MR2 factory image. Phone is not rooted, firewalled, or anything and there is plenty of space left on the device. Razer support is scratching their heads for the past week.

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 [Camera Failed]

Hello all. Often I get lag and camera failed error. It happens mostly when I launch camera from double press off power key, into video mode. The camera is unusable for some time.
*How do I update the camera APK from APK mirror. I always get app not installed when side loading system apps. This issue I had on previous Samsung flagships.
is the app your trying to sideload signed ? are you rooted ? sorrry they seem like obvious questions and i think i remember your name from back in the day on the evo 3d forum ??? so your not new to this, but had to check

Thanks for reply. I mean they are from APK mirror but not sure if signed. I'm not rooted and have no plans to.
Hahaha you got me, I'm an old head lol. Haven't needed to get help often so yeah it's been a while
I would not side load this.
There may be a glitch with using the side key to launch it.
Try in safe mode to rule out a 3rd party app...
Keep trashware social media apps like WhatsApp, Tic-tok, FB, etc off the phone.
Clear system cache.
Clear cam data and try again.
thought the name seemed familiar, think weve crossed paths several times with various devices over the years, you would need root to sideload it im quite sure, as it would be trying to overwrite the original app

Go to Device Care and in memory clear the cache apps. Now try the side switch cam thing, after it launches go immediately back to Device Care and see what apps loaded since it was cleared.
It may give a clue to the cause. I've used this technique to track down some nasty little buggers. It's saved me from a factory reset.

This problem occurs more than you might think. I am extremely annoyed at paying dearly for a smartphone full of annoying problems. I get even more annoyed because Samsung doesn't release software updates to fix this. The last update for my version was released in Feb.
