Missing some come alive wallpapers - Google Pixel 4a Questions & Answers

In wallpapers, under Come Alive, I have 9 wallpapers available, when I believe there are supposed to be 15. Most notably missing are the doodle wallpapers. Is it just my phone, or do all Pixel 4a-s not have them?

Hey Bill
Have you heard any mention of ABC 11?
Wouldn't mind that for our device in the future

Android 9.0 Pie Update for Vivo Nex

So, Android Pie 9.0 is released today, and the update will be available today for Google phones as well as essential phone.
Anyone who has used Vivo phones in past has any idea how much time does Vivo take to release the new version to their devices? Eagerly waiting to taste a new Android and hoping that Vivo cuts down the Extravagant iOS-ish UI and goes for much cleaner, stock UI.
Could take 3-4months at the minimum .
Starting today, an over-the-air update to Android 9 will begin rolling out to Pixel phones. And devices that participated in the Beta program from Sony Mobile, Xiaomi, HMD Global, Oppo, Vivo, OnePlus and Essential, as well as all qualifying Android One devices, will receive this update by the end of this fall.

Great to know! Hope they release an update to Nex soon and demonstrate their dedication to international audience.
Anyway, android p or not, we won't see the difference with "Fun"touch OS
I wish there was a way to load Stock Android on this thing.

Only if vivo give us appropriate source codes. Or all specific peripherals, especially pop-up camera and fingerprint will be not working. The problem is not with loading itself, OEM drivers are needed to compile stock android for using with this device.
Vivo is working on Android 9 for their best phones , i found this picture at official vivo china forum. hope ANDROID 9 come in this year for nex s. they have internal test now

Sometime in November for Android P ?
looking forward to this update...
Yup, me too. But we won't see much UI difference since it't Funtouch OS.
I wouldn’t expect it earlier than end of December for Nex S.

No unfortunately we won’t.
Funtouch OS will remain with the same restrictions as before and iOS style UI.
Only hope to see improvement with some key elements feature like unlimited third party app notifications support to AOD.
Current status really sucks.

[Mi MIX 3] MIUI 11 and Android 10

Hi, i think almost everyone here heard about the upcoming MIUI 11 update (rolling out from middle October in China). I'm pretty excited about that, but i have a question i cannot answer myself. Will the MIUI 11 come with the new OS Android 10 or will it come just as it is without OS update? I'm asking that because of two things:
1) I've read somewhere that Xiaomi already confirmed Android 10 for our device.
2) Instead the MIUI 11 Beta, avaible in China, is actually based on Android Pie
So...what are your toughts about that? Feel free to answer!
2) Instead the MIUI 11 Beta, avaible in China, is actually based on Android Pie

this is true for beta version, (mi-Globe / EUROM)
yes im already on MIUI 11, but it still based on Android 9 no doubt.
but the introduction of new features makes you want to use this ROM more and more (personal opinion)
system-wide dark mode still misses some notif/popup windows (its still on light)
AoD new styles are great, very artistic
they said MiShare is faster, cant feel it. but its not slow. i think it feels the same as V10
and the other features were there just before we hit MIUI 11. I guess this would benefit the stable users more.
its actually not a night and day change. you kinda appreciate those little adjustments. icons, stuff like that. not much for themes tho
its one of those regular updates that you want to jump into. and yea its kinda pretty cool.

Hi, thanks for the feedback. I'm sure i'll like it too! Just hope they'll push Android 10 before Android 11 lol. I'm okay with Pie, it works good and has a HUGE amount of apps and will support them for long time for sure. On the other hand, this device in Global version was born with Pie so...would be nice to see at least one major update. I've heard somewhere that Xiaomi launched Mi MIX 3 with Oreo in China so basically Android 10 would be the last OS update even in EU/Global version because of some strange thinking about their update politics

what's good about with Pie is that, stereo speaker mod is still working, and maybe it wont work on 10. still enjoying the mod
For now i'm not planning to mod my device, when support will be dripped, then il'll explore again the modding world
You guys surely know already but last china beta (9.10.10) is miui 11 based on A10... Not that android version makes any significant difference for the end user but well, always nice to be en par with google I guess

I've read the news on XDA. And yes, i don't care so much about android version rather that security updates but you know.. a one year device is expected to see at least two major updates xD

This is so true. I've learnt the lesson with Honor 8. They wanted to kill the device but after a lot of time and people's petition they finally released oreo. Now i'm at the first experience with Xiaomi but as i've read around they're used to update frequently their devices. Don't know so much abouth their policies about updates though, so we can say i'm just hoping that the "Two major updates" rule will be followed

It usually gets to a point when a device is dead unless community keeps it alive. And that is awesome. I actually choose my devices partly attending to their development support. I still have my old hammerhead, 5 or 6 years on, and it is running nice pie roms and surely some 10's will come. Last google firmware is marshmallow. That is really cool
Still, of course it is good and nice that a newish devices keeps being updated by OM.
In my case, more than android version I wish xiaomi updated kernel source, but that is way too far fetched I'm afraid.
Right now I'm using MIUI 11 9.10.11 beta version and it's based on Android 10. I'm on the MIX 3 Android 10 close beta group and get updated everyday. This rom is quite stable and the only bug I found is the incorrect display of RAM which has no influence on my daily using. Magisk worked perfectly and I got 68HZ display so smooth XD.
Can anybody tell me where is Mi Mix 3 ? Or Instead of Mi Mix 2 should be Mix 3 ?

No More Security Patches

Huawei delists the Mate 20 X and Mate 20 Pro from its security update schedule
Embattled smartphone makers Huawei has now removed the Mate 20 series from its security update schedule, in a move that mirrors what happened with the Mate 10 series a year ago. The phones include the Mate 20, Mate 20 Pro, Mate 20 RS, and Mate 20 X.

ouch... thats harsh, i would have at least expected one more year of security updates only, without major android updates. harsh especially since EMUI 11 isnt even out of Beta status yet...
edit: hold on a sec, we're still gonna get updates, just not regular ones anymore!
quote - "If the Mate 10 series is any indication, this doesn't mean that Huawei will stop sending updates to the phones entirely. They'll likely still receive patches; regularly for some time, then slowly afterwards—over the course of this year, at least."
ok, this i can live with, way more smooth than just going cold turkey

Ahh right. I didn't know that.
I'm still on EMUI 10.
So do we think the Mate 20 X will ever get anymore updates after the EMUI 11 update?
Major updates no. So no EMUI 12 or whatever it will be called.
However, Security updates will still come most likely.
Man don't u read news ??? 50 series , 40 series 30 series and 20 series gonna have Harmony OS ...
Why u even missing some ''fake'' security updates'' ??? they don't do anything just overwrites the date that they will keep you happy ... don't be pathetic

im skeptical to switch over from an largely open source (AOSP Android) to a completely proprietary OS fully designed by Huawei... not seeing any benefits, but i agree insofar that having more choices is usually better

Question Xiaomi 13 opensourced their kernel

Seems custom rom is on the way?(Is any developers take interest on it?🥹

Over a year since the code was released for the 12 pro and nothing.
The source codes are incomplete for some devices (Confirm by devs I contacted)and the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen can also be a problem because no rom also for Samsung or One Plus.

Perhaps those other phones simply don't have developers to volunteer their time. I am eventually lumbering my way towards ROM development and am interested in the hardware of the 13.
Coming from a Snapdragon 870 (Poco F3, still solid) that has a host of other custom ROMs for me to practice with.

But i'm afraid I'd would be disappointed if i switched, coming from a phone with so much roms (I even have installed windows 11 on it)

Xiaomi Shows No Interest in Releasing Kernel Source Code of its Devices
Xiaomi is having a good time in all the smartphone markets over the world releasing numerous devices. It is popular for producing budget-friendly phones. It has a great user base in the Indian market…
www.thecustomdroid.com
but
newer platforms all use GKI, which means it's identical between devices, even if the SoC vendors are different.
Not sure that they are obliged to release source codes for vendor kernel modules, those are proprietary.

I will never understand why people ask for AOSP roms so much. Google's material you aesthetic is horrible, and customization is sorely lacking. The best of xiaomi is MIUI.

I also 'hated' miui 11/12 back in the years, but after i tried miui14 now on x13 i must admit, that pretty much good and fluid UI now. I like it now.

One of the main advantages, not to mention the additional settings, is that you can use an Android version that is no longer provided by Xiaomi.
For customization from A12, it's ugly.
