Gboard on Android P DP builds - synch learned words missing - Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers

I'm not sure which build it started in (I think it was there in DP2) but in DP3 and now also DP4 with my P2XL I don't have the option available to me in Gboard settings to synch learned words. I have the same version of Gboard installed on my OP3T running OOS 5.0.3 and the option is there. Is this consistent with other users or do I have a problem with my device? I don't know if it's psychosomatic or not but it seems like the suggestions surfaced by Gboard are of less value on my P2XL than they are on my OP3T and I'd like to attribute this to the fact that I can't synch learned words. TIA everyone.

Damn, inconsistent bugs like this are the worst. So hard to isolate and fix.

What does it look like for you? Blank? Greyed out?

It's just not there. I have the settings page for the Dictionary but the part about syncing with my gmail account is completely missing.

So yesterday I opted out of the Android P beta program, installed the rollback OTA via the automated tool and set up my phone from scratch. The option to sync my Gboard dictionary with my Gmail account is still just not there. Maybe I should call Google support now that my phone is running Oreo again.

Just upgraded to Pie and issue is still prevalent. I'm on Gboard beta and I tried uninstalling and trying different apks to no avail. This is very frustrating as typing sucks as all my synced shortcuts are not there

Has anyone reported that to Google? I have seen this on a few AOSP Roms that this Option is completely missing. Most people wont even notice but it just sucks to not have the words you saved before.

I tried while still in the beta program and support wouldn't talk to me. I've gotten the official OTA and have since done a factory reset and the problem is still here for me, now I can hit up Pixel support again now that I am not running a beta OS.

When I get the time I will try to update to P and report back. Maybe it's somehow Account related. They had that problem a few times with GPhotos I remember, that some things just wouldn't work for certain people.

I think I agree, this may be an account issue. I just set up my old OPO with LineageOS 15.1 and I have the same problem there. I wonder what Google can even do about this? I hope I don't have to make a new account to get this functionality back.

I don't think so. The biggest problem will be to bring it to their attention to actively keep them looking into this matter.
As a sidenote, I just Dirty flashed Pie on top of Oreo and still have the Option. I hope the get this fixed for you guys :/

Looks like this version of Gboard brings this option back as per this thread .

This is indeed a lazy oversight on Googles Part. I remember the same thing happened with Google Photos. Remember the Option to have a floating Bubble on the Screen when you had taken a Photo with the GCamera? That was missing somehow after updating the App, going back to an older APK, activating the option and then update the App would make the option stick.

After official Pie was released, I still have the option just fine. [emoji53]

I'm using nexus5 too.

Chrome is not working for me too.
Use another browser till someone finds a solution.
Meanwhile, I can't get PIE to activate or find the settings for it.
Anyone able to advise me on this?

The last time I used PA is on my galaxy nexus a year ago.
So many things have changed. Last I used PA is when Halo is just released. Hahaha.

A little too much for me to read, and I cant find anything on PIE settings.
I only saw a couple of change logs that PIE was removed, then added back in.
Volume warning
Also after pressing "No, Ask me later or Yes" in the volume warning the phone is rebooting. Is there any possibility to get rid of this warning apart from xposed module?
I own a Nexus 5. 4.4 RC1 installed on top of Factory Image 4.4.3 with wipa data/cache etc and then Stock GAPPS for 4.4.3.
- There is a general lag here and there, it's not extremely bad but definetely not smooth as it was with 4.4. BETA7.
- Chrome FC while using quick search
- Crashes while rendering Lens Blur images with Google Camera
- Crashes in Theme/Wallpaper section
- Crashes when volume warning ignored while listening music

Looks like Google has implemented the fix, so hopefully we see it roll out with December updates.
Or a Dev will implement it in their ROM if TWRP drops before then.

Substratum works just fine on a rooted Pixel XL. You must have a 7.1.1 compatible theme and you should pick v7_1_Google_Pixel as your android version when applying the theme.

I have it installed and running the swift black theme. I have all apps themed except android system and system UI . I read somewhere that theming system would cause a boot loop.

I am using Substratum (Swift Dark) and it's working very well. It will force close in System UI Tuner and at battery details (after touching the graph to expand) but I believe a fix from the very active Dev is coming.
He is a great guy, chatted with him on Hangouts. Quick to respond and assist with issues.

I am using Swift Black on a Google Pixel. Love the theme, but every time the theme updates (I notice Substratum upgrading the theme's resources every now and then), it breaks certain apps (usually Google Photos, it will open up, but after browsing for a few seconds, it just crashes). The issue is always fixed by uninstalling the theme for all apps in Substratum, rebooting, reinstalling the theme for all apps, then rebooting again.
Do you have these issues as well? I'm thinking there must be a better way to fix the issue, since rebooting twice is kind of annoying.
Have this issue once in a while with different apps after it updates. Best thing to do is uninstall theme overlay, delete it, and uninstall substratum. Restart phone then reinstall both. Restart again.
Seems to fix it for me every time.
I've tried clearing theme cache, rebuilding theme, updating inside substratum, but none of those really work well.
NOT giving anyone a hard time, but the description in the play store talks about having to do this from time to time after an update. Saw it either in the theme or tha app, not sure.
So it seems ro be expected, yea annoying, but expected.

Yeah, for some reason I go to long press to select something and nothing happens, then if I let go, it just opens the app that I am long pressing on.
There is a setting in the Pixel Launcher that I found for it. Pixel settings - Suggestions - Overview selection. This was/is toggled on and it still is not working. I tried to toggle it off and back on again, no luck.
Very strange. I toggled it off and on and the option works for both. The obvious restarting your phone doesn't do anything?

No. I even tried toggling off, rebooting. Toggling on, rebooting....no luck.
Unless someone else has any other ideas, I will probably factory reset to see if that fixes it, which I am sure it will. DP4 is around the corner though, so I may just wait.
Yeah might as well wait for DP4 first at least.

High battery drain with my Mi Mix 3

Hi Guys,
facing a really annoying issue with my battery usage! I have my phone since two days and from the beginning i reconized, that android system use most of the battery what is really strange! Att. some picture where you can see it. I have a SOT of a little bit of 1 h and have already used 43% of the battery. Something is using my power a lot. Some of you guys aware of this issue and has anybody a solution for me!? (MIUI 10.0.11.)

I already gave it a try, more than one reboot of the system, but still android system is at the top of the list! Overall my SOT is ridiculous.
No idea what could effect that, when i read that some user has a SOT of around 9h i'm really sad and sure that something is wrong.

I'm not sure what app is causing the issue. I get 9 hours SOT on the EU weekly for 2+ months now. I'd probably get the same results using any version of miui. I use the same apps on all my phone's and always get great battery life.

I own a Mix 3, DO NOT factory reset. Simply go to Apps, Google Play Service, clear Cache & Data. This will solve the issue. We had a discussion on MIUI forum

Yes I am actually, Nova launcher. Hm. It doesn't show as being a heavy user in the battery section though, did yours?
Not showing nova, but Android services using more then it should.. Had more then 30 %of android service usage and after switching back to miui launcher, have about 10 % max
In my case cleaning google services cache didnt solve the problem. I didnt do factory reset becouse i did it few days ago whe I bought used mix .
What I did was downloading last fw update package from phone settings and updated which means I flashed same rom I had on my mix.
Before CPU usage 100% all the time, now looks much better (see pictures)
There is a bug in the beta builds of MIUI if you are using one of those that causes ALL apps to get autostart permissions. This leads to severe battery drain. Simply going down the list and stripping most of the apps of the autostart permission fixes the problem. This has been reported as a bug to Xiaomi. I also submitted logs and bug report as I found the cause (I think) of the Verizon MMS issues.

You're right, beta builds for this device are a complete mess regarding battery consumption. Even with autostart option turned off I still have severe battery drain from "google play services".

Dunno if there’s an actual difference since i cannot compare to others however the version number differs as in Eu the files are numbered from 4 instead of 3

To me
Afterparty launchers didn’t carry some gestures from the original launcher (swipe apps and accidental touch)
Some mistakes in some translations and some margins in some buttons
Kill all apps button in the show all apps screen didn’t work properly
Audio problems with some dongle dacs (though don’t think it will be addressed)
Security patch from November (i mean… not a biggie but still its nice to be updated)
Notifications not showing up from time to time
Don’t know if anyone else experienced this but sometimes the brightness “flickers” or dims up and down in low light condition, don’t know if anyone else addressed that
That’s all i remember as of now
Security Patch is January 1, 2023
Performance seems fine so far. Didn't have any issues before.

The brightness flicker is really annoying in the morning/evening when it's really noticeable... hopefully that's been fixed
I think they will fix something with the update since they pulled it out yesterday and hasn't been available as of yet
with this google security update can you still disable all googles services?
as far as i know this maybe the only phone you can degoogle without rooting

So what do you think is the phone better after the update?
The full install package fixed a ton of things for me, including sound drivers,issue with dts, some colors in the notification menu and the screen brightness problem at night

this is a phone that has been setup stock, monitored cronicly since it has been turned on and had mx player installed to show off its amoled screen

FIX: boot into recovery press wipe data. press optimize upgrade data
