Has anyone downloaded and installed the new wireless update? Not sure why they changed to the Google messenger. Especially since Allo is due out soon.

Installing now. Kind of a disappointing update, but at least we haven't been abandoned.
I didn't think Allo was going to do MMS/SMS, but I've seen conflicting reports.

It looks like the issues I had with background apps closing when clearing all apps has been fixed. I've got no apps running in the foreground yet can see Whatsapp, Fitbit, etc still running and I'm receiving notifications for them.

You're right, my Garmin Forerunner doesn't disconnect when I do that now. Good catch.

That right there is worth it. I'm installing it now.

The issues with the background apps closing seems to have been fixed. Thank goodness. Now Tasker and pushover work when closed.
As for Allo, I haven't read anywhere that SMS and MMS are not supported. It does seem to suggest that end to end encryption is primary.

I downloaded it and now my phone won't start up properly. It goes into a loop where it says android is starting and it is optimizing apps and then restarts back to optimizing apps over and over. I contacted Blu customer service and they said to hard restart mt phone. It doesn't work and my phone still does the same thing.

Since the update, it change the sms native to Google messenger and worts off it there is a bug, no notification at all on every sms program.

Do you have a link for this update?

I just hard re-set the phone a couple of times in a row and let the phone do its thing, optimizing the apps for 3 hours straight. The phone started up by itself and worked after that. Hope this works for you.

Hold the power and up volume buttons for 10 seconds to re-set phone. A menu with options will come up, select using the volume up/down button. Select re-set phone option with the power button. I did it twice in a row.

turning wifi off
So when battery is around 20% the strangest thing happened, wifi just turns off when phone is locked, just when it´s locked. Anyone else having this issue?

Does anyone know where to get the v19? I had to perform a factory reset and it backed up to v16. When I do the update it now claims that my system is damaged.

U ULTRA Oreo 8.0 update, is it half baked?

I have updated to Android 8.0.0 a few days ago and so far I have only came across problems and issues with stability and performace.
So the positives about the update:
- The phone definitly is more secure, google did an amazing job on that one, for sure its the safest version on android by far,
- Performance is slighty better
- The skin excluding the icons are very nice, but it just ends here,
And here are the negatives I have come accross:
- The settings menu is kind of broken. On a few ocassions so far there have been no icons next to the text and would disappear unless i closed settings and opened it again,
- When u select for example Security, There are no icons on the left of the text. It just seems lazy from htc that they didnt really finalize the rom, everything seems rushed,
- Files are encrypted by default and impossible to access unless you do a full wipe and somehow remove the decryption(I assume you need to use aroma, but i have no idea how that works),
- Multiple icons are used a lot and there are barely any animations (Example - On youtube when u minimize a video and then reopen it, there is no animation it just teleports the screen to full or minimized. When u pull down the menu from the top, again no animation, it just goes down instantly. When u try to close the applications when u swipe left or right it just does it quickly),
- The secondary display lags a lot i have no idea why,
- When i use bluetooth headphones the audio stutters a lot making watching videos or listening to music really uncomfortable( on htc earphones the audio is fine),
- The rom in general just feels really rushed and unpolished
If anyone is experiencing similar issues please let me know, also if there is a fix for the specified please post it down.
In general its cool that we got the update, but we got a half baked one, with controversial features I would say..

Yes numerous times

Okay so with a simple reset and a visit to the recovery to attempt to delete cache and dalvik cache, bluetooth works fine with my headphones and the secondary display doesnt stutter anymore, yay.
I think the rom is a little bit unstable..

Okay so for some reason my rom is very unstable.
From time to time it stutters a lot while on some ocassions it works smooth, ill probably have to factory reset it

The official Oreo rom lags. The former rom was smoother. I have horrible battery life. The SOT is less than 2 hours and it was around 4 hours. I did a factory reset. This update is a big disappointment.

Give it a few days guys

Guys keep in mind that every time when you update to new android it takes several days till everything settles. With the new version everything (including apps) is scanning, indexing and setting up in background in the first few days.

I have stoсk 7.0, tell me how to roll back to 7.0.
Trouble in Oreo is Temperature over 50-60 degrees
Also noticed the fact that in 7.0 the memory was loaded by 54% in 8.0 the memory is loaded by 70%
Please tell me why the processor operates at maximum frequencies in normal mode?

I'm fairly sure that you can do that by the option which is intent on doing so.
The point I was trying to make is, battery saver does not behave like this in the prior versions, and I was assuming that OP thought his ROM was broken somehow because of enabling it.

Just to add my experience with the update first time it soft bricked my phone and had to flash ruu via sd card to get it working again. It now runs but keep finding secondary screen crashes when using sat nav and error message covers the screen! I also get a crash in mail whenever i try to reply to anyone!

Annoying "Phone is starting..." delay on boot-up. Are you experiencing this?

Annoying "Phone is starting..." delay on boot-up. Are you experiencing this?
Recently, I got the Note 20 Ultra.
For a couple of days, the phone used to boot clean without any delays.
During boot, there is now a progress bar that appears on a blank screen with text above it saying, "Phone is starting..".
The progress bar on the blank screen eventually goes away with an icon in the notifications saying,
"Phone restarted Unlock your phone to get app notifications"
Are any of you encountering this boot-up delay on your phones? If so, have you fixed it? I'm also familiar with a brief delay after an firmware update, but this is unfortunately not the case. It occurs after every reboot.

Never seen this on any phone I've had. How did you initially set your phone up? If you copied data and apps from another phone that's probably your issue.

Just rebooted Snapdragon At&t. Said Phone is starting for like a second. No delay

If I'm not wrong :
Since Android Pie all smartphones powerful enough had to be encrypted.
This delay is the one needed to decrypt the phone.
You can disable it in the security settings.

Yup, I've had message pop up in reboot on my last 3-4 phones. Not exactly sure when it started and it's kind of annoying that it happens. But since I don't reboot very often, I just deal with it.

My AT&T 10+ always shows that bar at startup, normal... no encryption.
The 20 U's memory is faster so it shouldn't persist as long which only is 1 or 2 seconds. How many autostart apks you got will effect that time length though, I believe.
The app Autostarts will show you what is insisting to be loaded asap on start up.
If it's a 3rd or unneeded system apk you can tone it down by disabling/uninstalling/package blocking them.

I have the same on my Note 20 Ultra.
Not sure what it is, but from memory (I might be wrong) it was not like this before. Maybe some installed program is causing this...

PD MDM as well but I think that kicks in before the bar.
Now I'm curious it is a 3rd party app because I don't think I saw at first after I did 2 reloads recently.
Interesting.

I think it's just a Android thing, I always saw this on my Pixel so I'm not surprised to see it on Note 20

Since the update to Android 10 on every device I've had, it does this now. Is it really that much a bother for a few extra seconds? Not for me, I don't worry about it as it's quick and can get into the phone very fast after a restart.

It's interesting it's happening on Q too.

My Note 10+ did this and so has my Note 20 Ultra straight out of the box. Hasn't bothered me any, since it shows up for maybe 3 seconds at most.

Question November update is bug fest

Hello everyone,
My Pixel 7 Pro experience has been so far smooth ride but since I received November update it is definitely more buggy, than it was. From time to time I get freezed screen (only something works, like pulling notification tab, but nothing else) and I have to restart device. Camera app opened from lock screen often closes itself when tapping shutter button. Do you also have this kind of behaviour? No root, no mod, no nothing, everything stock.
Plus additional bonus from A13 feature. Replying to messages in landscape mode is just dumb. Can't see what I'm writing. Can't press send button.

I don't have these bugs and yeah, landscape mode has never been ideal for a lot of things. This isn't new.

Before update I had only minor bugs like invisible watch widget or invisible spotify in notifications. But since update it got much worse and I have to regularly restart device.

I too haven't been experiencing anything out of the ordinary, and like Ethereal said... Landscape is always so and so but I was able to scroll the uhm... reply box? Notification?
I don't know when, but Google used to do a full screen text box for landscape text but seems to have gotten rid of it, maybe you're intended to scroll what you want to see?

No problems on my end. In fact, it's only gotten better (especially the signal quality) on the November update.

It doesn't happen everyday. But it already happened in the morning. I woke up, took the phone and home screen was frozen. I couldn't swipe or open anything. Only notification tab was working. Had to restart the phone. I have to restart the phone like every two days. Definitely expected more from clean Android. MIUI had much more features and wasn't as buggy as this.

No issues here on the nov update either, if anything its an improvement over the oct update. I'm really looking forward to the dec update though, that should really improve things.

I think the point might be it's unrelated to the update.

Mine has been super stable with the November update - zero issues actually, which is rare for me.

Well, I do have errors since the last update:
The phone does not wake up after a long time without being used. It does not work double tap on screen, or change the position of the phone. I have to press the power button to wake up.
On one occasion the lock screen was hung with the semi-lit fingerprint sensor, but pressing the power button was solved.
Of course, the previous update was much better.

Indeed, it might be, it might not, I'm not suggesting it definitely isn't at fault.
However, where it didn't happen for you prior to the update, it hasn't happened to myself and many others (most others?) either before or after. This suggests the update being the cause is no certainty, contrary to the thread title, rather that it is something being assumed by virtue of the fact it's a change that has taken place.

Yeah in theory, but in reality it is hit and miss month on month. In saying that it has been far smoother than the Pixel 6 series

Only issue I've had is text box randomly not popping up with keyboard in Messages and Chrome input boxes. So input field stays hidden underneath Gboard. But I was having this issue in last update too

also i've noticed the Level tool in the camera now is tilted about 4° to the right, so i had to disable it.

My Status Bar Clock is missing since the update. :l

Question Has anyone installed android 14 beta on google pixel 7 pro

what problems do you have, if any, and is it worth installing?

Its not worth it! It's a buggy mess right now I would wait for beta 2. Just look on reddit and you'll see all the problems it has.

Its not worth it! It's a buggy mess right now I would wait for beta 2. Just look on reddit and you'll see all the problems it has.

Only bug I've seen is the modem. I'm on wifi most of the time anyway, but the signal strength
isn't as good.
Oh, I did have another bug. The app bluemail was crashing when it opened it. Emailed the
failure report to google & the app developer. Less than 24 hours later the app developer
sent me a link with an updated beta app that fixed it.

It is the biggest bug party I have ever seen.
Couple bugs that happen to me currently:
- Online banking app no longer works.
- Home screen is just glitching and all apps disappear.
- a lot of Status Bar Symbols missing/ or glichting
- Screen can't be opened with fingerprint sensor, for whatever reason.
- And yes, many apps are not updated for Android 14 yet.

Wallpaper and style not working/crashing here and sometimes a bit lag. The rest of the problems mentioned here not on my 7 Pro. Fingerprint, modem, all 102 apps (some are new betas), including banking app are working without any problem. Provider: T-Mobile
Before you enrol:​The updates that you’ll receive as a part of the beta programme are pre-release versions and may contain errors and defects that can affect the normal functioning of your device.
Source: https://www.google.com/android/beta
So be careful and make a wise decision

In addition, dark mode will not stay on; you'll have to toggle it once an hour or so. I would say it's an Alpha.

Probably I must be the lucky one that everything is going well! Battery for me seems longer and it doesn't warm anymore when watching videos or dimming my screen as during A13 Qpr... the only issue so far for me is the usb-c audio not working.
