The 4.12 version did not work for me, While the 20200509 version did.
I am still on Android 9.0 MIUI Global 11.0.3, No Android 10 OTA in the UK yet.
Thanks.
John.

Yes, 20200509 version should work.
We actually have two Variants of the Version 4.1.4
one is 20200509 & other is 412 you can try both, if Ultra Battery Saver option still not showing uninstall the app update from app info of your Security App & try different version, one of them should work for you

Ultra battery saver doesn't show up when I installed this but I noticed improvement on the battery optimisation so I'm still thankful that you shared thus tip. Thank you..

Did you try both versions, Try version 20200509 and then 412 if it does not work, make sure to reboot after installation before checking.

Hi, you need to uninstall the previous version first to install different variant, you can try both variant by uninstalling the app previous update first.

I'm afraid that my phone will be bricked hehe though the battery in the latest update is more optimized.

Do you guys have noted that after using Ultra Battery Saver mode, contacts synchronisation with Gmail is switched off and no contacts name is shown in Calls section ans Messages. Any Solution to this?

10.5.9 Global Update temporarily disables Photochrome filter

Update: According to this post by Androidpolice, a Oneplus representative had informed that the update was pushed out unintentionally, and for those who have already updated, a future update will bring back the photochrome mode. (Thanks to Walhalla for providing the link and info)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The temporary disable of Photochrome filter that came with the update in China has finally found its way to Global ROM.
I had just received the update notification from 10.5.6 to 10.5.9 and the new update will be disabling the Photochrome mode in Global ROM as well. FYI, I haven't updated yet.
The changelog mentions the filter is expected to return in June after revamp, but there is no exact date.
Here's the Changelog:

Still april security update

Isn't it possible to extract the 10.5.8 camera version as an apk and to install it then on the new ROM ?

Probably not if you are not rooted. I think lower version number than the system version is not possible, but you can try it. That is the one that is installed on my 10.5.8 firmware.

I just checked my camera app version, it´s 4.0.244. So this version can also be found on apk mirror https://www.apkmirror.com/?post_type=app_release&searchtype=apk&page=7&s=oneplus . So shouldn´t it be possible to flash the new ROM and afterwards the old camera version downloaded from apk mirror?

Is there anything else significant in the update? If not then I'm not bothering. I like this filter.

@Deacon-Frost
Have you even read my post?
@dladz
Not really, I compared the system partitions of 10.5.8 and 10.5.9 with WinMerge and have not found any useful changes. There are changed bluetooth libs, but thats all.

I spotted version 4.0.251 on apk several days ago as I also have .244 on my 8 pro.
I had thought about updating, but didn't.
Can anyone who has updated to 10.5.9 check and see what the camera version is?
TIA

Of course I've not

Can someone go into there Camera app and turn off Ultrashot HDR and Smart Content Detection and take a picture in 3x zoom mode and see if the image it comes out is normal to you or the same as what the viewfinder showed?
Every photo I take it seems to overbrighten or the contrast is turned super high (even though the viewfinder looks fine).
I'm still within the 14 days period of my return in case my camera is faulty but the screen I got is nearly perfect condition with a slight smudge at bottom and a faint line at top so don't really want to send it in.
EDIT: Hoping this update fixes it for me if not...

I'm still on 10.5.6. 5.8 was pulled here in North America. Has anyone manually upgraded to 10.5.8 using the incremental file?
I want to know if it was any help or if I should just stick to 10.5.8.
Thanks,

My memory was not wrong. I just tried to install an older camera version on 10.5.8 and this was the result:

Hey @repey6 is this version for rooted device only? Asking this as you've mentioned magisk, or can be installed in any non-rooted android device?
And can anyone confirm whether the earlier bug of crashing at around 20sec time mark is fixed or not? Those who don't know, this music app works fine until android 9 in all devices (universal APK from this thread) but since android 10 arrived for almost a year ago, this sony music app is mostly not compatible anymore with any devices, everyone who have installed this, the music app mostly crashes (stopped automatically) after 20seconds of playback. If anyone wanna check, goto this thread, while we don't know what's exactly is the problem, it seems the modder @Ben Ling stopped modding the app for whatever reason so we who love to use this app & been using since ages are forced to use another music app after updating to android 10.
I personally Have tested in all stock android device that I have in my family, all the broader devices ranges covers from Mi A1, A2 A3 & Moto One Power, Infinix Note5, & some Nokia devices, & every device are running on stock android 10, & in none of them, this sony music apps works.
So, after seeing this new thread here today, am expecting someone would fix this problem so that we all can use (again) our beloved music app.

Worked anywhere. No crashes on 10 OS. Try mod if no Sony.

Added OP.

@repey6 you said 'works anywhere' & 'didn't crash'
In my case, today, while I tried to install these apks, none of these three apks were able to install in Mi A3 running stock Android10.
What now?

Sorry i haven't stock 10 OS only treble.

Updated OP. New version from official Sony FW.

Added mod for not Sony devices v.9.4.7.A.0.6 to OP.

Works great on Asus Zenfone 5z(ZS620KL) Q-10.
Thank you so much!
With Google Play Music now transitioning to Youtube Music, this really help me a ton to play music locally on my device.
Only hiccup is, when I installed the Music-v9.4.4.A.0.3.apk, the app detects all the album arts no problem. After installed the mod file, all album arts for my music files disappear.
No big issue for me for as long as I can use the app no problem. And also I can still set the album art manually in the app.
Thank you again.

Magisk build for 10-11OS. Please ignore on 11OS popup windows and FC at first. After reboot and some time all will work normally.

does any of these version have the fix for SD card bug? If ys then which one I should use for non rooted Mi A series (A1 & A3) phone running on stock android 10?

Dont good. 20 seconds and crash the apk

Mi A2 android 10 V11.0.10.0.QDIMIXM
Working good,but enter the main play interface ,albuum cover will not be display

I saw latest version has Dolbyatmos mod inside but i have DolbyAudio already... Wont it affect??
Thanks bro... @repey6

What's GP version? Google Play (stock) version of the app?
Anyway, I've tried both, Music v9.4.8.A.0.13(19464205).apk & Music v9.4.8.A.0.13(for not sony).apk from the OP on (Non-rooted) Mi A3 running on Stock Android10 with latest Nov-2020 Security update on the top of already installed Music v9.4.7.A.0.6 (from Sep 2020), both failed to install.
Can anyone provide any universal apk of this latest v 9.4.8.A.0.13 for the non-rooted device?
Also, those, who've already tried & using this latest v9.4.8.A.0.13, kindly confirm whether the old nasty SD card (external memory) bug is fixed yet or not

Did you install new version after full uninstall previous version?

23.09.20 update 2009.47

CAUTION: This update may have major bugs (see link below) with overheating, constant max cpu and therfore, battery drain.
I've updated via the full zip already and will give updates for the next couple of days. I did experience heating whilst driving, I was streaming via Bluetooth to my car and uploading this latest full zip to mega at the same time. Initially I just put it down to these factors but reading some of the link from @MelquiXDA, it may be a full issue with the rom. Once I cancelled the upload and finished my journey the phone returned to normal temps. Everything still stable now too. I've not changed any settings to counter the issues. Time will tell, will keep people posted
https://zentalk.asus.com/en/discussion/36275/high-temperature-cpu-usage-battery-drain-on-2009-47/p1
UPDATE: LINKS REMOVED, TOO MANY BAD EXPERIENCES
UPDATE : it seems its a Google issue causing the cpu spikes to max. This would tie up with my device not having max cpu possibly because I'm running the Google beta services
Asus has released a new update for our device
Changelog;
Android security patch update to 2020-09
Added support for ROG Connect in Armoury Crate
Support TwinView Dock 3 FW update
Fix issue where Pokemon Go could cause high CPU usage
Fix Application names being cut off in Recents view for Hebrew localization
Fix AirTriggers mistouch issue and optimize AirTriggers stability
Incremental (WW);
Alternative link;
Will update when there's links released for full zip
Full zip update;
For those of you that are rooted: Download the full zip, move to root of internal storage and reboot. System will detect and prompt to update, click update. Wait until it finishes but DON'T click 'restart', instead, click 'restart later'. Go to Magisk manager. Click 'install' for Magisk. Click the last option 'install to inactive slot after OTA'. Click confirm force flash. Reboot when prompted. Done - root kept intact. One thing I did find which may have been a one off, but it changed my default launcher from Nova back to Asus. Not a big deal, I just changed it back under 'default apps' in settings.
Will post mega mirror soon.
Note: incremental update won't work with rooted devices

There's 2 links on telegram, just uploaded the other version in case the first link I posted is corrupt. See first post for new link

@panzerpig I see you gave thanks to first post, was the first link OK for you? Did the update work? I'm wondering if the file is corrupt...

I'm assuming they didn't bother enabling VoLTE for T-Mobile/AT&T like they did for ROG Phone 3?

See screenshot, it seems its a Google issue causing the cpu spikes to max. This would tie up with my device not having max cpu possibly because I'm running the Google beta services

Downgraded to WW-17.0240.2007.27 and bug 100% solved here, after app installs CPU returns to 826MHz normally, so its bug of latest Asus update (related to apk installs, when some Asus process tries to detect new app and crash).
S9+ don't manifest this bug here, even with september security patch.

FKM (Franco Kernel Manager), I've also got Ex Kernel Manager which is good too. Both are for managing and tweaking rooted devices

Question More Google Services needed...

The baked-in Google services work mostly,, but two weak spots are left:
1. I didn't get Google maps work with the Mi Fit app in Germany - it just doesn't display the map. However, it tracks the run even if it says in the beginning that the GPS signal is weak..
2. The German Corona Warn App doesn't connect to the corresponding Google services with the error message:
com.google.android.gms.common.api.ApiException: 17: API: Nearby.EXPOSURE_NOTIFICATION_API is not available on this device. Connection failed with: ConnectionResult{statusCode=UNKNOWN_ERROR_CODE(39501), resolution=null, message=null}
