Update QF3 available for sprint 7/5/17

new update available. says "security , new device features " , its the android june security patch and possibly a new feature
If your using the no root hotspot it still works through update!!
It installs weird too after rebooting it restarts then the screen will black out and say "installing applications"
then it will say software is custom until the update notification at the top stops. even though it already popped up a toast that said successfully upgraded yet that still has to fill up (in the notification) then it all goes to normal seems smoother than ever

I am applying it right now, will follow up if I run across any issues.

Thanks. So there is more than just security patch in it at that size.

All I know is the last update(not this one) broke my phone, My system app crashed randomly, vibration would continue to vibrate after calls were answered, very slow response and frequent random resets. Notifications would either not appear or not disappear. One time I lost all my home screen apps. The problems were so severe I decided to upgrade to the S8.
After this update my phone runs like new.... too bad I already decided to buy the new S8.... although my 'excuse' for needing it apparently has been fixed by this update, Now I just want the S8.

yeah mines running smooth as butter. Just a note if you have that problem again (vibration etc) go into Stock recovery and clear cache it fixes it

Since updating to 5.1.8 - No notifications for Slack, Skype or email!

UPDATE: Factory Reset solved issue with notifications not coming in. But all notifications now play at 100% volume, even with ringer and notification volume set all the way down to 10%.
Phone Status: Bootloader unlocked, unrooted & running completely stock. Notification slider is set to "Ring".
I must say, I'm extremely annoyed with my Oneplus 6 and OOS at the moment. I was out of the office today, enjoying time with the wife on her rare day off. I kept thinking to myself that it was an oddly slow day since I wasn't getting any Slack, Skype for Business, or email notifications. But it is a Friday, so I didn't put much additional thought behind it.
I got back home late this afternoon and logged onto my computer, only to discover that I've been missing time sensitive messages and emails from clients all freaking day. Needless to say, this is quite frustrating and it has even put me in a bit of a bind with one of my clients. It's especially infuriating considering that it's not just 1 app, it's 3 of my most crucial apps. I even have the Slack, Newton Mail and Skype for Business apps all set to "Don't Optimize" within battery settings. So there is no reason these notifications shouldn't be coming through. I've tried rebooting and that hasn't solved the problem. Even as I sit here and watch new emails and Slack messages come in on my computer, I'm getting absolutely no alerts/notifications on my phone.
This is not an issue I've ever experienced with my Pixel XL, Pixel 2 XL or my iPhone X. It's a big enough problem that I've resorted to popping my sim back into my iPhone X and throwing the OnePlus 6 in a drawer, until I can get this problem sorted. I'm so pissed that I'm considering just putting the OP6 on Craigslist and never buying a OnePlus phone again. If I can't trust it to give me notifications when they come in, it's useless to me and, quite frankly, costing me money.
However, I will say that prior to receiving the OOS update to 5.1.8 yesterday, I do not recall missing any app notifications. So I'm thinking the recent update is the culprit. Is anyone else experiencing issues like this? If so, have you found a solution?
Regardless, it's quite disheartening to discover the hard way that this phone/software isn't able to properly handle something as basic as prompt message notifications. Even if I get the problem solved I'm not sure I'll ever fully trust it again and will inevitably resort to constantly opening each app, just to make sure.

Do you have advanced optimization turned on? Did you check Settings>Notifications to be sure they weren't blocked somehow?
You might try clearing data and reinstalling the apps. I have not had any issues with notifications nor heard of this issue from anyone else, thought I don't use Slack or Skype.

Just checked and "Advanced Optimization" is not enabled. I also went into Settings > Notifications and confirmed that those apps are not blocked. I might try a full factory reset to see if that solves it. Super annoying.

I think a full wipe is needed with OEM ROM updates on this phone, at least if you have root/TWRP. Mine goes all ****y with notifications and bluetooth and fingerprint in 3rd party apps when I update.

I think you're right. I've received 3 software updates since getting the phone and each time it throws my finger prints out of whack. Deleting them and re-creating them fixes it though.
I'll go through the factory reset and get everything reinstalled when I get more time in the morning.

I'm having the same issue with telegram..what's app seems to be working fine though

I'm having the same issue with Aquamail and my Facebook app (Power Facebook) and both are set to ignore battery optimizations.

While I'm sorry to hear you guys are experiencing these issues, I must say that it's relieving to discover I'm not the only one. I'm convinced the 5.1.8 update broke something with notifications. I'm hoping a factory reset fixes it. Going to try that here in a bit.

These updates are breaking a lot of things. Bluetooth functionality for me was fine in 5.1.5, when I received the phone - was broken since updated.
Oneplus needs to concentrate on quality control. It is clearly the weakest point of the phone and the company.
Is it surprising that Oneplus paid an influencer to make a video about how their quality control is so great?
I think not.

Yeah, I'm thinking about doing a clean install of Android P DP2 to see if that solves my issues. Not to happy with the "stable" OOS, at the moment.

I had issues with Hangouts mainly and not receiving any notifications so I downloaded the full 5.1.8 zip, factory reset then installed it in twrp and now no issues

Yes, we discussed this in post #2 and #3.
I ended up not having time to mess with my phone this weekend. And things have actually gotten worse. For some reason my ringtone and notifications (when they do come through) play at maximum volume, even if I turn the notification sound slider all the way down to minimum. Reboots don't solve it. Also, my ringtone is randomly changing to this obnoxious beeping noise. I reset it back to the "OnePlus Tone" and it works for 1-2 calls. Then on the 3rd call it's back to the obnoxious new beeping tone, regardless of who is calling.
It's as if the phone is possessed, at this point.

Yeah, I think I need to do a fresh install of the 5.1.8 factory image. I don't see another way to solve this. OnePlus has really caused quite the mess with these updates. It's probably resulting in costly warranty returns/exchanges for them as well. If a fresh install of 5.1.8 doesn't solve it I'll be selling the phone. These days, I don't have time to be dealing with ridiculous issues like the ones this phone has.

Sounds like you have malware. Or you are going crazy
EDIT: if you want a solid but discounted phone, check out Samsung website for discounts on their S9s - they have run $150 and $200 discounts on S9s in the past, and I got one and set it up for a friend. Top notch. But those discounts don't usually last more than a day.

I did a factory reset then installed TWRP and reinstalled the stock 5.1.8 ROM through TWRP a few hours ago. All has been working fine since. We'll see if it stays that way.

Same with Spotify, 5.1.8 seems to be killing the notification so the app gets killed in the background. Notifications seem to be wonky on 5.1.8.
Sent from my ONEPLUS A6003 using Tapatalk

It's been a few days since I did a factory reset and fresh install on 5.1.8. Notifications seem to be coming in as they should be. However, I'm finding that no matter what audio level I set my notifications and ringer to, notifications always play at full 100% volume. This remains the case even if I turn ringer and notification volume down to like 10%.
I swear this phone is possessed.

Android Pie Stable: Issues and Fixes Thread

Since we've been talking about Pie in at least four different threads, I thought I'd create a single one to address, list and possibly fix all the issues that are being experienced with the gradual release of Android 9 on Nokia 7 Plus. Mods: I'm assuming this is helpful, but if you think this thread is redundant feel free to delete it.
IMPORTANT: Before you do anything or think something is broken, make sure you restart the phone twice once you've installed the update. If issues are still there, you might go for a hard reset which is always helpful for creating a clean system environment.
In any case, you're welcome to add to this list and help others find solutions. This is what I found so far:
Battery draining
Most users noticed a decrease in SOT, for some this is even 2-3 hours less than on Oreo. While it might be peculiar to Pie itself, it is worth noticing that the new Adaptive Battery feature takes some time to adjust according to how you use your phone and learn what apps to handle and how. You should also check that no app permissions have changed since the update, or that no unwanted processes are misbehaving because of it (see below).
@trveller72 points out a neat trick: deactivating the automatic Battery Saver (Settings > Battery > Battery Saver > UNCHECK "Turn on automatically") seems to extend battery life a lot.
Heating issues
Regardless of the SOT, these should not be there. I experienced the thing myself and in deep October no phone should burn into one's pocket, whether idle or when doing some light browsing. If you're having heating issues, this is most likely related to processes misbehaving and abusing your CPU when they shouldn't (either because of an application bug, or because of something gone wrong after the update). In this case you should launch the ADB command
Code:
adb shell top
which returns the CPU usage of your phone (make sure, of course, the phone is connected to your computer and has USB debugging enabled). This might give you an idea of anything strange going on and allow you to act accordingly. Or you could go for a hard reset like I did, which is a nice overkill solution and grants that you carry over no unwanted issues from Oreo - and it also recovered some SOT for me.
No adaptive brightness fade effect
I experienced this myself: the screen goes from 0 to 100 brightness in a millisecond and you're blinded forever, never to see your loved ones' faces again. This might possibly be an issue with the personal settings brought over from Oreo. In my case, I solved it to a degree by playing with the bar a bit, and it was solved completely with a hard reset. I think the fade effect is a bit faster in Pie anyway, so there is a degree of difference you should not worry about.
App notifications not disappearing
Notifications for some apps tend not to disappear when you swipe over them. For instance, this is true with the "HDR processing" progress bar of the PixelCamera mod (or better yet, in some versions of it). No fix for now, you just have to force quit the app and hope it is made compatible soon.
UI and Animation glitches
As with all first releases, this one is not perfect yet. I've personally encountered some animation glitches with the reception of nested notifications (especially in the lock screen), non-standard DPI settings, app-switch animations, volume control when writing on your keyboard, and minor stuff of the sort. While most of these are system-related and will have to be fixed in next releases, for in-app glitches make sure they are correctly updated and compatible with Pie; you could also try deleting cache/data, uninstalling and reinstalling them.
In particular, some report an issue where the bottom part of the touchscreen stops working after prolonged inactivity, regardless of the navbar settings. @k3dar7 suggests using XDA Navigation Gestures (no root).
Digital Wellbeing
Yes, this is not compatible with Nokia 7 Plus yet, despite it being in DP4 (iirc), the feature is still unavailable although installed on the phone and already collecting data, and can be enabled by subscribing to the beta program (thank you @divvykev). Downloading it as an app from Play Store won't be possible, but @Redcap56 kindly points out that a working version is available for download at APKMirror.
"Non-issues"
(i.e. things you're probably complaining about but are actually feature-dependant)
- The new gesture-based navigation is not available. It's there, but you have to turn it on under Settings > System > Gestures > Swipe up on Home button
- Mobile data is always active even when on a Wi-Fi. Yes, unlike before it is, but you can turn this feature off in Developer Settings.
- There is a maximum number of possible notification icons before the dreaded "etc. dot" appears. Nothing that can be done, unfortunately. This was decided by Google regardless of not all phones having a notch.
- File Manager is gone. And FilesGo is now there, like the child you never wanted. And most likely you never wanted it because it doesn't allow you to browse folders. The old file manager can still be accessed through the Download app or in System > Storage > Files. If you can't see the internal memory, make sure the option is ticked in the three-dot dropdown menu.

Digital Wellbeing does work!
Installing from apkmirror worked for me: apk/google-inc/digital-wellbeing (I am still not allowed to post url)

Thanks for the heads-up, it works indeed.
By the way, before getting the APKMirror version I had just found out that Digital Wellbeing is actually installed on the phone, just inactive.
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1vYzZE5zB3LNLAckAUlRMkWoXPMjkD42M/view?usp=sharing
When I updated it with the APKMirror one it could show me statistics from all the past day, which means two things: one, it's already collecting data and it's creepy. Two, it's in a working state as it was in DP, so shall we expect that it becomes activated with the next OTA? (or when marketing-wise it's no longer important to make it Pixel-exclusive?)

If I search on internet, Digital Wellbeing is only available on beta version for Pixel phones on Android Pie only.
I think, when the beta is finished, we have all access to this functionality

Wellbeing is available. I found it be looking for the app in the store but found that it was installed. Signed up for the beta and hey presto....there it is. Can't see it being of any use to man or beast but hey ho.
Am on Pie stable btw.

Thank you, I don't find it useful either but this is good information indeed! Post updated.

I don't see any difference between latest beta and this so called stable one, all the issues persists.
Phone heating is really pain in the a$$, especially while charging (most of the time, not always though). I have seen "Temp High, Stop Charging" notification 3 times in a row now.

I have some issues with displaying apps since Pie. For example, when I'm playing music with Youtube Music and Maps has a picture-in-picture overlay the YouTube music app will flicker heavily and the album art won't be visible anymore.
Same for the normal YouTube app and SwiftKey.
Anyone else experiences this?

In Snapchat messages, the screen can flicker so much it's unusable. It's usually cause by putting the cursor before an already typed word.

High temperature while charging is very, very bad. If you can't solve this, I'd suggest you go back to Oreo before the battery is ruined.
In any case: did you update directly from DP? Did you check for strange processes via ADB? If you haven't done it, a hard reset can be very helpful as well.

Not with the same apps, but I experience this as well. Only advice I can give is to try what you can for single apps (i.e. clear cache/data, uninstall, reinstall) but you probably did that already. If it isn't solved this way, only the next OTA (and/or the next app update) will solve it.
But yeah, this is definitely a thing. I have heavy flicker in some setup wizards for Google apps (most notably Lens) and the volume control will flicker at all times if shown while typing on the keyboard.

Actually that should suffice AFAIK. If I were you, I'd try downgrading to a stable Oreo and updating from there. I'm really not sure about it, but probably some bad code is brought over from the beta? But that temperature is definitely not normal, especially if you already did a factory reset.

Not sure if you did that already, but the adb command I wrote in the first post can be useful to check that. Good luck anyway!

The stable pie update is a full rom, not an incremental update, so it doesn't matter from which version you are upgrading, after a reset, no trace of the old operating system remains

I might be wrong but I think the issue with the screen on time not lasting as long as it did in oreo in one of the updates they decreased the speed the battery charges or the curve it charges at, I can't remember where it was mentioned but there were issues and they said it will be addressed in pie, this could be related to the battery getting hot while charging as mentioned by @valexbast .I personally haven't had this issue with screen on time being less but I use my old Samsung charger 2Amp 5V most of the time.

I am having (albiet minor) bugs when adjusting the display density and font size both to their smallest. The lock screen pin entry sticks to the left side of the screen, and notifications & quick settings change themselves randomly to the wrong density and back again. Nokia support refuses to acknowledge these bugs exist but I have seen a few people around the web with similar issues. I did not have any of these issues on DP4 which is interesting!

While helpful, I noticed that Nokia support is often instructed to "pacify" the user and assure them everything is normal. But I guess they're taking notes. I haven't tried changing display/font size but the bugs you describe should be easy enough to fix in the next update.
I don't think any of this is app-related anyway, even when we're talking notifications from certain apps. So here's to waiting.
Edit: by the way, I'm a long-time lurker and only newish user so I'm really not a veteran, but hey... welcome to XDA!

List of issues on OOS 10.0.3

I switched from a OP6T after A10 update thinking A10 would have been stable on OP7 considering it launched a while back and may have ironed out the issues but I'm getting bugged about some issues that have lingered on forever..
1. Google Maps / GPS in general would get stuck on the previous location so you'll need to kill Google Maps a couple times before it picks up your current location.
2. Every now and then you can't attach images on Whatsapp. Only way to fix that is to restart the device or kill Whatsapp a few times and it might work if you're lucky.
3. Using gesture navigation with 3rd party launchers still flickers with a black screen before seeing home screen. I understand this is a Google issue but still it is an issue.
4. Company that was super aggressive with their updates has diluted their phone portfolio so bad that they just can't cope up with timely & stable updates. Stable update rollback have been record high for them in the last few months!
5. Multitasking is a joke on OP throwing out phones with 8GB/12GB with capability of holding apps in memory worst than a 4GB phone.
I've been a pretty loyal OP customer since OP3 and this is my 6th OP devices, but I'm on the verge of changing brands because of what once used to be their strength is now their weakness.
Hope things turn around soon for them, and us users!

1. Never experienced that.
2. Never used whatsapp.
3. Didn't know that.
4. Didn't know this either.
5. Or this.

I'm also facing the Whatsapp issue which is pretty annoying as I have to restart everytime when I have send any image

I haven't experienced the Whatsapp issue as yet on 10.0.4, but that's after flashing the latest 10.0.4 and resetting all the permissions.
Also, resetting the permissions seem to have fixed my issues with GPS too.
At this point, I'm glad no major complain anymore.

Issue after update to 10.0.4, notification icon on top left appears only a couple of minutes after the message (noticed with whatsapp). It sounds when the message arrives and the preview can be seen on the slide but no icon. OP7 stock no root. Anyone else?
Other issue since 10.0, if I set more than one alarm in the same day (one every morning and a second only for the evening) a second alarm icon appears on notification bar on the left

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.

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.

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.

Maybe i'm lucky too, but i'm having no issues other than when i sometimes go to compose a new sms, the app (google messages) freezes and causes system wide freeze until i lock the screen with power button and then it's back. Hardly ever send sms these days anyway. no biggy

i wanted to know only what kind of problem just read the question and u will understand .

Installed the 14 beta. Not faced any problems so far, apart from "com.android.qns" crashing every time I boot the device. But it does not affect the cellular connection.
Battery OK, no other app crashes.

I reset the app data for QNS and the crash went away for me.
