My vivo nex just got updated to Android 9. Global version India. - Vivo Nex Guides, News, & Discussion

Hi while writing this post my phone is upgrading to Android 9. I'm in India . I'm sure more of us will get it too. Let's share here what's new in Android 9 for vivo nex.

I am currently downloading as well, situated in Denmark.
I did change region to india in settings and activate vpn through india before going to bed however, so I cannot say if this made some difference...

I noticed camera has more features under ai face beauty option but sad is 24mp snapping is removed from vivo nex camera . Other changes are mostly UI based.

Here in Belgium we also receive the Pie update now...

I am downloading in Poland (EU) without any VPNs and region changes. Here is, in the end Android 9 will give the Global version without a combination.
I sorry for my English, I use Google Translate.

Just updated. Dark mode is under quick settings by the way.

The funtouch os ver is 9

Downloading (very slowly) version 9 from France! Cheers mate!
No vpn needed. Region is still Switzerland.
Edit: update applies quite quickly like less than 20 min. Dark mode is cool.

Slowly it is, but it's here. Next Android Q on NEX in 2023!

Enabling developer options without the red line on notification is not working through vivo services as this is not available under apps permission compared to the older version

Use Autonotification app. Removes the red line and many other messages that you don't want to see.

Feels good

I'm not happy with the dark mode it is not absolute black instead grey it is. So it is not going to help in saving any battery. Only it will be less stain to eyes at night. I still miss my 24mp camera in vivo nex.

The Nex battery life is so good it doesn't matter. I'm just happy I'm no longer blinded every time I open the phone.

Still loving it ?

How to hide botton navigation bar?

I need to hide the bottom navigation bar for proper functioning of my car navigation. It needs the whole diplay area (1080x1920).
On youtube I found this video with tips and tricks:
Huawei Mate 9 (Tips & Tricks)
I am not allowed to post link, but it is the first video if you search for: "Huawei Mate 9 (Tips & Tricks)"
From 10:50 it shows how to enable hiding of the navigation bar, but I dont have this option - switch "navigation bar" in settings of my phone!
Any advices? (My former phone Mate 7 had this option).
Please no advices like "to install aditional apps" to gain this function.

So I humby ask all future potencional alternative ROM creators to add this feature to their ROMs.
I also need to hide it for a game I play.

I've been playing with GMD Immersive that was recommended on another thread.
It does the job, but sometimes it can be a bit awkward.
Could you please (someone) explain to me what is so wrong about this feature that European users are not allowed to use it???

I've used it too and agree it's too awkward to use, especially when you need to use the keyboard.

What I'm currently doing with the Pro version is to turn it off by default, only have it set for a few apps where I want to use the while screen. Those apps don't use the keyboard.

Makes it difficult to use those functions when there are no controls for them.
What would be even better is for the toolbar to be turned off when the Floating Dock is turned on. You don't need both.
It would be great if Huawei has done this in MHA-AL00C00B153. Can't wait to try that!

In the Themes section of S8 +,
(similar thread as yours)
Some members that had same issue,
cleared Bixby "cache" (Settings /Apps /Bixby... cache) Afterwards they managed to do update.
Good luck
Same problem here. Shows update available, click update, and says I have the latest version.
I updated but no voice options at all I think it was just the ui change

I was earlier checking for a app shortcut
with QuickShortcutMaker app and saw
Bixby voice etc all listed and installed
but not enabled. Obviously
missing some other.. software ?
See screenshots
i do believe we might still wait a few months for voice input.
Bixby, i mostly use, for easy access to my to email accounts.
Just press button and i can read my new emails.!
I am still on old Bixby version
Not sure if anyone else has noticed but if you are using the samsung keyboard and hit the voice button it appears to use bixby for dictation. Interesting....

Pardon, but I would like to know your theme, fonts and where this menu is. I like your set up.

Sorry to disappoint you, but it's not my device's theme!
Theme, icons, fonts (in screenshots) from 3rd party app QuickShortcutMaker (free Play store)
Maybe download, install
and the search for something similar.? (Reason is, you can always compare themes )
Good luck
Maybe this is update?

November Update changes

How many of you have updated your Mi A1 to the November update and what are the noticable changes which you all are facing? I am noticing a better battery life after the update as the doze feature is working very well on my phone.
When did you update? The update came out less than a day ago so I wouldn't trust any comments on the battery life yet.

Simply head over to apps, on the top right click on the menu dots and select "show system", scroll down to locate Google Services Framework, click on it, select storage then clear data.
Go back to >> About Phone, System Update, and you should now see the update.

I have installed this update and I have noted that the poor and annoying audio quality while recording videos using the camera app due to noise cancellation is now gone and am able to get normal audio on videos I record with the default camera app or any other third party camera app.
Now if they can only add the screen flash in their next update for the selfie pics since the phone lacks a front facing LED flash for low light selfies.
im having Gcam hdr+ problems with this update , random Fc , black and white front camera under low light .
tested all versions of the app and no fix, its the update.
when we can ger android 8 for this device?
Hello guys!
Some news about the changelog?
Is it only available for people who are not rooted ? Beecause in the about phone section the software update part is completely missing in mine.

Works for chinese version, not sure about other models but you can try. All that still works. Google services, call recording, disable app through adb, etc. Only issue I discovered is music stutters if you don't switch sound effects to Kirin or another effect. How to = Just change region to china in app gallery, then apply and download beta through my Huawei app (You'll see available devices, just choose yours) then go to settings and software update. It'll now show up for download......
Updated mine yesterday and can notice (too early) an increase in battery life by 10-15%. Also I like the UI much better than Android 11. All google apps are working without any issues. I have the Chinese model.
Got Harmony 2.0.0.165 on my phone waiting for update. Will Gmail and other apps work? How to disable upgrade?

Post this update every product from Google works fine without any issues. If you want to disable the update change the setting to disable overnight install
I'm assuming Ascending ringtone is still not able to be disabled as I have not found it. I hate the feature and wish they would put the option back to turn it off and it rings at full and not this BS as I have missed many calls due to this.

Thanks.
All my Google apps, WhatsApp and text messaging work just fine. Notification has changed - swipe down to see them.
I really think the snappy feel of my mate 20x is lost after harmony os 2.0... the top right corner of the phone is also heating up a bit.. its been around 8 hours since the update. What do you guys think? Will it improve?
Anyway to get harmony os on global mate 20x evr l29

Question xiaomi 13 8/256Gb

First impression.
Very friendly in size, screen, handling.
MIUI 14 Android 13.0.9 update. Interesting in many ways, but more difficult to discover the properties in the setup than MIUI 13.
Apparently the same problems in the older MIUI configuration. (Difficult to change the MIUI system launcher or cancel the apk download from unauthorized sources, for example)
Chinese apks almost all uninstallable.
Google play pre-installed, Chrome installable, Maps, Google One.
Fast wireless charging
A very good phone, a bit expensive, but much better than the xiaomi 12.
Unlock in 7 days.

An FHD+ screen on a device of this price is a bit of an overkill.

Oh, I see. Thanks.
I had the Xiaomi 12 and found that to be an excellent device with very few flaws in my eyes. The only thing I missed was a flat screen. Purchased my Xiaomi 13 12gb 256gb storage from china. Only issue I have found so far was that it has taken a bit of setting up to get the majority of google services on there and working. So far the only thing that does not work is google assistant via voice recognition.
