Upgrading to Oreo: Worth it?

Hi peeps. I'm currently running my U11 on Rooted 7.1 Nougat Stock ROM, which I love to pieces, it's very smooth, fast & stable.
I would like to know what peoples experiences are with Oreo, since it's a big job to upgrade once you've rooted. Are there any real advantages to updating? Is it worth the hassle?
Give me the skinny
cheers :good:

I was glad to get it mainly for two reasons - A it allows our company client certificates to be imported that were too advanced or something for Nougat (so now I can browse our internal systems from phone) and B there is LDAC support (useful if you have high-end Sony BT headphones) and other Bluetooth hi-res audio codecs on top of regular aptX. I also find the UI neater, and like new option for do not disturb mode (notifications off until next planned silent time ends) but that alone wouldn't make me flash. Let's see what others have to say

Oreo was the start of all my problems... It's a tough situation though because Oreo brings with it the latest Android security patches...
But have had endless network, SMS and Wifi issues ever since.
Good luck!

Icons are UGGLLLYYY! as hell! And yes i know themes ... but cant fix all problems - you need to change launcher =(

I suspect upgrade process is at fault, which wouldn't occur when re-flashing the rooted phone and restoring or re-installing your apps there. Just my guess though. Personally I didn't experience any such problems after OTA to Oreo.

Well, setting HTC Classical icons in Personalize - Edit current theme - Icons fixes most except for Google ones. I didn't really like how Oreo (or HTC?) rounded all the icons, with Google ones it works IMO.

Hey my phone has just get the update, is this pie already?

Ok, yes, is android P already ?

That is a LOT sooner than I expected. Great work Sony!

Yep! Just installed the update and this is Android Pie. Really fast Sony!

Let me ask can you turn off gesture control? What is the navigation like compared to vanilla pie?

I use Nova Launcher but navigation is like it was before, no gesture navigation like Pixel phones!
But damn that dark notification bar and quick controls panel is boring, all the interface is light and clear except that.

Pictures please

There it is. No specific changes at first glance. I'm going to test it on a daily use to see what's new deeper in the system.
Not all Pixel features are available.
Volume slider is a big issue, can't controle ring volume, only media!
And really not a fan of this half light/ half dark theme made in Sony... We should be able to chose which mode we want.

Not very convenient, that you can't expand the volume slider popup to do so - as before.
Also I'ld be cool about the rest, even the bulkier quick controls, if I could try/use gesture controls. But couldn't find any option to activate that.

Off Album art show in lockscreen on Android 9. I really love it???

Insert Picture error?

No gesture nav? Dang it, do you really have to have a Pixel for that?!

So glad there isnt gesture control. Sony always mods each build perfectly so we don't have to try out BS 'features'! So glad Sony is back to not being just about pretty hardware.

Anyone here who still hasn't even got the 51.1.A.11.51 update (September security patch)? For some reason my phone is still on 51.1.A.11.26 (August security patch) and just tells me it has the latest available system updates.
Bought it from amazon.es so it's not like it's my carrier that's "blocking" the updates. It also has more than 50% of space available on internal memory, so that shouldn't be the issue either.

Anyone try to test SD card speed?

Do you also have this bug, that the switches are outside of the background?

It is a known bug on Android Pie, not a Xperia specific issue.

Need help
Hello everyone, I received this update too. But since I installed it, when friends or for work call me on the phone I do not have the time to answer ?! Can anyone help me?
Thank you very much

I updated yesterday, since then the fingerprint sensor doesn't work very well. It used to be very responsive. Anyone else noticed this?

That is ugly, and doesnt look useable. As far as the other bugs go and the camera having too many 'enhancements' think its best to stick with the last version of Oreo made. And not.go any further. Its true nowadays, whats old is always better!

OnePlus Apps Port

Hey!
Few days back, I got my Reno 10x.
My past device was OnePlus 3T which just kills when it comes to Software.
I really miss the OnePlus clean apps.
Found some of the Apps working from OnePlus.

You won't find that in app drawer. You will need to set that as default launcher by going to Settings - App Management - Default App - Homescreen - Select OnePlus Launcher from that list

I used OnePlus 6T and honestly OnePlus has the best user interference. Very Clean and better than the stock Android. But when come to ColorOS the story is really different. Although I have installed Nova launcher and some near stock icon packs but the overall visuals of ColorOS Ui remain the same. I anyone has idea if the substratum or any other tool by which we can tweak the settings menu, quick settings etc.

Well, I don't think, there is any 3rd party engine which is supported with this device.
But I can see that more and more themes are being added in Oppo's Theme Store.

It's not just about more theme it's about major overhaul of the entire UI. ColorOS is always striving to be more like IOS. But the best and clean UI of Oxygen OS is far more better than ColorOS. I wish I could get an Oxygen OS rom for Oppo Reno 10X Zoom.

Well I guess we all can just wish that.
I don't think we will be able to even get a clean rom for this device anytime soon.

Oh, that's horrible. Looks like we made a mistake buying a Oppo Device

No it's not a mistake as it's a great device with so much capabilities in both hardware and software. Yes in software development OPPO has always been behind the competitors. In recent times every OEM is trying to give more stock like user experience except OPPO and VIVO which share the same roots with OnePlus i.e. BBK Electronics. Let's hope some of the developers get interest in OPPO phones and start pushing the limits.

Having an impossible bootloader unlock phone, and being a member of xda is a very Big mistake. Period.
Just have a look to the rom section of this RENO Phone, then compare it to OnePlus 7 pro rom section...
No way

Yes you are right at this point. I am using the Reno 10X and love to play games and use camera with all it's capabilities BUT honestly hate the ColorOS Skin. It was better for Oppo to borrow OxygenOS from it's sister company OnePlus (a great wish if it can come true). But have to bear this if you are in love with the device.

Thanks for sharing. I'm using the gallery app on my Pixel 3a (Google Photos is buggy atm) and it's working without any issues.

Thank you.
I currently have the previous version installed, which in my case caused the black dots at the bottom of the screen.
The update manager, however, continues to offer me the wrong update that was intended for Android 9, is there anything I can do to solve?

I have no idea.
At first I was sceptic and didn't wanted to update, but some said it's working fine so I did. In the past 1 hour I didn't encounter any bugs and feels like there are some improvements on the phone with haptic feedback and bottom speaker sound quality.

The new ROM was officially announced on the mi forums by the forum moderator.
The new rom is again "partial" and announced in "phrases"... Such professionalism.
Yet for the users from the first wave, the update is still locked on P security patch.
I am not complaining about the update itself here... I am complaining on the... sheer underwhelming quality of the official Mi Community...
Also, for OP.
These were fixed in the initial first wave:
4- Fixed android.process.media crash while choosing Ringtone when DND on.
7- Known Android 10 features.
8- New! Qualcomm FM Radio app instead of Xiaomi's own. (as a side commentary, it's stupid, and if you check the system apps, you'll still find the old Xiaomi app there)
12- Camera captures less blurry Photos. (worked extremely fine and fast in the initial release)
13- Light sensor feels its working. Better than Pie. (took shorter to train, works ok now)
17- New! Google Play system updates! (If its not up to date tap on it and press Check for update button.) (this is the whole thing people were yelling at me it's not going to be implemented, back in the speculation posts... but ohh well)
19- App switching via Navigation button sliding works smooth then Pie.
Now what really matters is the following if you can confirm
-The pixel customization doesn't go away even after you "customized" your device again, and it's annoying.
-Full SD Card access cannot be found in settings, and would only appear after you try editing files with specific app
-The update did reset the battery optimization AI or whatever that function is called and sometimes apps notifications for specific less used apps since the update don't wake the phone up, apps that were previously used and started behaving correctly after a while
-The audio FX in Audio settings is missing and the old problem with a non-root system wide DSP (Noozxoide EIZO-rewire™ PRO) is still persisting.
-The wi-fi icon being stuck to only class 4 wi-fi networks
What I can understand from your list, compared to my initial beta list the following things are fixed:
-the missing kernel drivers fixed
-system animations
- New! Charging sound. (which are not present in 1st wave)
What I can't comment on:
9- I tested all hardware one by one via Factorykit Test app everything works as expected.
While this was true on some users, the fact that the 1st wave bricked so many devices, counts your argument as entirely true, and applicable in the "fixed" section of my list.
1- [email protected] fps Video Recorder doesnt work on OmniVision OV12A10 Camera sensor.
Can't confirm, since I have Sony sensor.
2- System button misaligned in Settings app while using 2 or 3 button Navigation. (see the attached image)
Not broken in 1st wave... So they really had to mess something up in a list of all pros.

It's possible.
It may come from the XIAOMI server.
From your provider.
Try turning data roaming on and always on for exceptions.
