That's what I was thinking. Hopefully in DP2 it will be fixed

Same here, I made a bug report linked below. Please add your comments.

Done

Me too
Yup, me too. Total display corruption when scrolling in Google Photos 3.19 . Android P dp1. Pixel 2 XL. DP2 should be days away!

I expect the fix will come from photos no P. And I hope I'm wrong.

Changing my answer. I now see several app compatibility issues as closed pending next update. So maybe it's will too.

Good job gang. They noticed our issue and asked me for more info, which I have provided.

Came here to check if anyone else had this issue. I deleted the data/cache. That didn't fix it, like you, I deleted the update, and it did fix it.

Hmm. I had this same issue with DP2 yesterday. I actually use the camera frequently, it was bothersome enough for me to revert to Oreo.

Google+ broken in Blink feed?

Hi I got unrooted stock htc10 but for some reason I can't get the Google+ section to update. It says no content. Any body else noticed this or is it just me?

So Finally MZP starts receiving nougat update
http://www.gsmarena.com/nougat_update_starts_hitting_motorola_moto_z_play-news-22986.php
anyone received it in UK ? how is performance ?
There's an entire thread on the Nougat Update https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-z-play/help/update-nougat-t3506069
So far very few people seem to have received it (mostly in Brazil).

I updated 2 or 3 days Ago. Working good so far. I've just noted that my battery is running low on juice a little faster than before. Not sure about this so called improved energy management on Nougat.
Anyway, I'm from Brazil.

Sadly on new (and encrypted) devices like ours that may be not enough because of keymaster firmware being on a separated partition (it was on system before) and that may lead to not booting devices. Also as I said on lineage thread I'd need a pull through adb of system/bin in order to build an updated TWRP that properly handles Nougat's encryption needed to store the backups/dumps on /data. This obviously needs an unlocked bootloader and I don't want to force lipe_frozen or anyone else to do that.

anyone running android P beta?

Just curious if anyone has side loaded and is running Android P beta. And what's broken, etc.

Thanks for that. Figured since it was released through the beta program as an OTA there still might be early issues... "Slow and janky" clarified that. Doesn't seem there is anything too horrible that doesn't work.
In your opinion could this still be a daily driver? Of course that always depends on what your doing with your phone.

It's not an official release. You'd be fine going back to O. You'd have to clean flash O more than likely. So back up stuff for sure :good:

I'd still hold off for a little while until it's been done a couple times just to make sure though. Although, I can't think of why it can't be done since it's not an official release yet.

So far havent found any show-stoppers. A few apps dont work. Google Pay is being weird about adding cards, though I have some added.
If you dont mind running into some bugs, then so far, it seems stable enough, but wont really know til after using it for a day.

so far the MyATT app crashes every open.
FiSwitch app, widget doesnt seem to work at all.
CustomNavigation bar app opens, but cannot be enabled due to Android version issue (also possible because Google seems to have gotten rid of system ui tuner altogether, or there is a new way you have to enable it that I havent found).
SolidExplorer gives a toast about API compatibility issue, but so far seems to work fine. I did have to delete and re-add cloud storage providers.
Off-hand, those are all I can think of, still have more to go through.
I installed factory images, did full wipe. In the past, when I have installed new OS with images, and deleted the -w (wipe user data flag) there were always issues, so I did clean install.
So far apps such as LightFlow, KWGT, CallFlash, things of that nature seem to be fine.

I only rendered help to you due to the way you said the update was pulled so I thought you wanted to download/update to the April build but you shouldn't have responded to me in that way. It's rude. I thought this forum is about helping one another, I guess I was wrong. From now on, I guess I will keep to myself.

what are these bugs? just wondering..
I had annoying bugs with Android 10. Chrome kept flickering, full screen gestures not working with 3rd party launchers, slow fp reader, the mobile data kept disconnecting (had to turn on airplane mode on and off to have internet). Now I'm back on miui 11, everything is working fine.

1 - big launcher icons
2 - if you turned apps suggestions off in the launcher, they'll be back after restarting
3 - can't dismiss/swipe away settings suggestions
4 - fingerprint only works if you have aod or wake for notifications turned on
5 - camera
These are the ones i've noticed...
Wow. The launcher icon bug still exists?
What exactly have they fixed in these last 2 rollouts?

Yeah it's really disappointing. While it's not as horrendous as the first version, it should've been a smooth experience by now.
Strangely update is stable for me i haven't faced any issues with this device since I bought it
For the size of icons, you may try changing developer option\ smallest width from stocked 360 to 390 or 395. This can shrink them somewhat.

That's right. I set mine to 411, which is the default dpi of google's pixel phones and many other flagships, and i'm loving it.

This device has never had EIS.
I got this phone for my mother last year. This update has been so abysmal (I regret updating it after not updating it for the last two times), at times the phone even crashes while calling. Hangs at random times. Didn't really expect it from a Android One phone

? It has a very good EIS for videos in stock camera app in Android 9. Doesn't work in Gcam though.

Android 11 DP2 just came out for OP8/Pro

Apparently even if you were on DP1, it still wipes your phone on the upgrade. I wonder why that's necessary.

It's no different from DP1 absolutely NO fixes what so ever from what I see, having to revert back, banking apps still don't work, UI is still a mess using dark mode, none of the Google implementations.

New approach of PhotoChrom now in DP2
So far that's what I noticed but there must be more fixed
I assume smart things power menu is limited to pixels now?
I am not on the beta program, but received a notice on a pre-update for my 8 pro. It went away and had me wondering, as the updater showed nothing.
I guess it was this beta update. As usual, OnePlus can't keep their ducks in a row.
Sounds like there's not enough to make the "upgrade" worthwhile - could someone please test whether turning WiFi Hotspot on and off via MacroDroid / Taskman etc. still works?
(it is broken in OOS 10.x but was working in 11 dp1)

It's OnePlus Camera version 5.4.23
You can download it from apkmirror.com
It dint not work on 10.5.10, downgraded to 10.5.8, now I can install the DP.
I'm downgrading to 10.5.11. I'm finding 11 DP2 still too bugging. I thought it would have been a little further along from DP1. I guess I'll wait until a stable version comes along.
