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!
Hello,
So after experimenting with a few roms, Lineage 15.1 in particular, and after researching this forum, I have come to realize that there is very minimal options available for those looking to preserve the video recording capability of the original LG app - this is an important must have feature for me, since the features are not replicated anywhere else.
Is there any custom ROM available that has this feature? Or is it just the stock rooted ROMs that have this? How about any modified stock ROM that maintains the camera apps, either on Nougat or Oreo?
Thank you.

This should posted in Q&A and not here

cstark27's GCam mods are the closest you'll probably get. You get nowhere near the manual control over the camera as you do on stock, but thank LG and their proprietary this-and-that for that one.
His mods are quite good though, and I've used them personally to get some pretty damn nice pictures myself.
We can do it but we need to decompile both frameworks stock LG and Lineage Os and make a framework that can Help us run LG base apps also to not break lineage apps.....It is possible and requires much time something that most of devs of V20 dont have

Hello, I had same problem as you when switched to RR-OS ROM before I found a HedgeCam2 app.
This app can record LOG-profile videos with full manual controls, manual bitrate, framerate, resulotion settings and has nice software stabilization. Also on v20 it switches between wide and normal cameras no problem. In comparison to stock LG camera app my only complain about HedgeCam2 is that sound quality is not that good. But video quality itself is even better due to ton of controls. You can even set noise reduction levels and sharpening.
Hedgecam2 is based on OpenCamera, it's free, open source, no ads. Try it!
Tried it, weak. UHD files at so called 70mbps are actually only recorded at 1080p in resultant file. App removed.
It's a thing?
Haven't seen any yet...
No mods there's a few AOD on play store that are decent and better for notifications. Once set up correctly
I wish OnePlus would add this. One thing I was really used to from my Pixel.
In the meantime, I'm using the Screensaver clock manually & charging which I kinda like.? Maybe some chef could tweek or mod it...
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.
OnePlus Launcher

The APK's got installed but I can't find them in the app drawer like nova or Microsoft launcher etc. also after installation the open button was disabled.

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.

Yep I contacted OPPO regarding bootloader unlock and simply denied it saying we don't support rooting our devices.

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.
Tried Gallery App

• Download and install the Apk file/files directly.
• Open Google Wallpapers App and apply the live wallpapers.

PS: All apk files are clean and tested on virustotal before posting
Thanks to reddit user Orikirby(OP) for fixing the cloud data update issue on Marvelous marble and sharing the live wallpapers.

Hey, thank you for these! When I try to install the ones embedded in the zip inside the zip I run into errors. How do you install these?

Which device are you using? Pixel Live Wallpapers apk already exists on Google Pixel devices as system apk file, hence the Pixel Live wallpaper 1.4 zip won't install directly. All other wallpapers will work directly on Pixel without any issues.
Ther should be no issues on other devices.
Cheers.
Does ANYONE know of any 100% fully working ports of :
Pixel Wallpapers 2017 (Pixel 2)
Pixel Wallpapers 2018 (Pixel 3)
Pixel Wallpapers 2019 (Pixel 4)
Pixel Wallpapers 2020 (Pixel 5)
???
All other ports are fully working, (live data, live earth, Eclipse, Pinball, Bloom, live bloom), but as far as the ones Ive listed above, at least 1 or 2 wallpapers from each year listed cause "unfortunately wallpapers 18 (or whatever year) has stopped" to occur. I have tried literally every available port on the web, and none function correctly on the 6a. However, they all work flawlessly on my old 4a..
I'm guessing this has something to do with the fact that they were all built back when Google was still using Qualcomm chips, before Tensor came along...
Just curious if anyone has found any 100% fully working versions of the ones I've listed abo6for the 6a?? Would be GREATLY APPRECIATED ...

Older apks were meant to work on SD powered devices indeed. Some shaders, function etc won't fully work on the newer Tensor (or Exynos) Soc and thus it'll most likely crash.
Obviously, it's possible to make all of them work but it's extremely time consuming and most of the important/popular wallpapers are already available on the new Tensor, either officially or from the ported apks.
Google devs working on these also clearly told me that they're not going to bring back the old wallpapers from Pixel 2,3,4 etc even though they work properly on the new Tensor as seen with these ported apks.
Google in-fact removed the Horizon wallpaper officially after the pixel 6a's September update. Luckily, I had already downloaded the wallpaper so mine is still there.
My friend had to uninstall all the updates to 'Pixel live wallpaper' app on his Pixel 6a and then download the Horizon wallpaper before updating the app via Play Store.
Cheers.

Actually, horizon is 1 of the few ports that I've had no problem with getting working..
Others, such as sights from the sun, burst, etc, seem to always crash.

Actually, the Saturn/Pluto/Mars etc used to work with the Pixel live wallpaper 1.4 version given above even with Exynos/Tesnor socs.
But Pixel live wallpaper apk has now moved ahead to version 2 so you can't install the older version 1.4 now.
Probably I should reconfigure them.
