Hello Luis2k17,
Hope You Are Doing Good.
Yes, People Are Facing Lots Of Problem After Updating To Android PIE 9.0.
Known Issues Are Given Below:-
Bluetooth Issue
Wifi Speed Issue
Voice Call Quality Issue
Call Recording Issue
Signal Drop Issue ETC ETC...
If You Are Satisfy With Mentioned Above Problem Then Go Ahead And Update To Android PIE 9.0
Greetings.
Thanks,
MUHAMMAD Asif Qasim
If you like using Gcam then no it is not worth it.
If you choose to stay on oreo, dont forget to disable in developer option, "automaticly install updates when reboot".
My phone upgraded to the March update, I have had none of the issues listed above, poor speech quality was fixed with this update. I don't use Gcam but believe that is an issue. If you upgrade, you can always revert to Oreo using Miflash tool.
I haven't had any problem when I updated to 9. I here there is a gcam for 9 now.but I'm custom ROM.but it seemednlike on 9 my data was faster

The experience per users are different. Here's mine though.
Have this phone shipped with Oreo too, when I launch phone app everytime I'll make a call, I felt like it's slow AF, even I have the phone app updated. Then I haven't that much of the experience of Oreo version because of that.
And when I updated it to Pie version immediately after we (my family) bought this phone, for above reason, with February patch, the launch of the phone app (and almost all apps installed in this phone) seems faster than what was in Oreo. However, as other users said, there are issues: one of which is the WiFi/Bluetooth bug which the WiFi speed tend to go slow when connected to Bluetooth, and if it is connected to BT Audio, the audio/music/sound tend to stutters within 4 meters away from BT Audio equipment; GCam ports tend to have problems on focus (though it's partially fixed when you set GCam to 16:9 resolution). But so far, I'm still fine with it (and all good despite having these issues, at least it's not bricked, unlike its big brother, the Mi A2).
Here's the pick: If you're contented to what's on Oreo (plus better GCam handling and better WiFi) then stay with it. Otherwise, you can update it to Pie but with said issues.
Background: looking to "upgrade" my aging dual-sim global travel Huawei Honor 5X (BL unlocked running custom "Pie" ... ha ha) and ended up with A2 Lite (3G/32GB model - decided against the 4G/64GB) - tossed in a 64GB mSD for plenty of video storage & photos, using this as a backup & should be mostly on WiFi (5Ghz whenever possible, less congested ...) << would've gone for the A2 with bigger 6" + screen but a 4,000 mAh battery of the A2 Lite flipped the coin toss >>
Out of the box is Oreo - updated to mid 2018 and gone thru the updates, stopping just short of Pie, after installing my Apps & ran it, everything stable & smooth. Camera isn't a big deal, everything as expected & much faster & responsive compared to the Honor 5X, as good as my primary ... Motorola Moto X4 with 4G/64GB on Google "Fi" software channel, ran Oreo on it & updated since to Pie. Passed along my Moto G6 (3G/32GB) Fi variant (no NFC) to spouse with an integrated battery case (3,600 mAh + 4,000 mAh external ... "yes")
In short, I had plenty of competitive comparison - over AT&T, T-Mobile, Fi and also Ting & FreedomPop (both MNVO) networks, also while roaming abroad in Mexico & the Caribbeans recently ... just not with the new A2 Lite. I make good use of VoIP and WiFi calling, Duo/G.Voice/Hangouts but not much over WhatsApp or WeChat or FB Messenger. Whether it's on Oreo or Pie, pretty much not expecting to ever get WiFi calling enabled on AT&T or T-Mobile, but, not having Android Auto to work in our new Hyundai Sonata (2019) is not "happy" - and, AA is a problem with G6 and X4, tried all the "solutions" without rooting, as I wanted Google Pay to work on the X4 for mobile payment, sometimes.
Earlier this week, I decided - after taking precautions & making backups - upgraded A2 Lite to Pie, let it rebooted & settled down, check for more Apps updating, etc. Well, I am satisfied and happy, no problems with WiFi or LTE signals, as fast as it should be & benchmarked it with the other devices above - it's all good. My "happy dance" is with Android Auto, it worked the first time I tried and was in a hurry, it connected & Google Map is now projected onto the car's 7" touch-screen ... just couldn't get it to work on the G6 or X4 stock roms. Of course, Apple's CarPlay worked easily in the Hyundai with an iPhone SE running iOS 12.1.x
Being Android One, minimal to few bloatware (Xiaomi's bundle) is great - just switched to LawnChair v2.x launcher, so I can tweak the homescreen & lockscreen a little more. Battery life, especially on standby on WiFi is great - those are my thoughts ... I will update/amend this as necessary with any findings.
Hope this help to those using this in the Americas ...
Hi LOS devs!
As described in this reddit which i found today
https://www.reddit.com/r/LineageOS/comments/bukq8v/frequent_contacts_disappear_from_dialer_los_151/
i have the same problem with sometimes empty frequent-contacts on favorites-tab in the dialer on my bq Aquaris X (bardock) running 15.1 .
It happens since about 4 or 5 weeks. Sometimes once a week, sometines after 10 days or longer.
There is no connection with OTA-updates or rebooting the phone.
It also happens on a friends Nexus 6 (shamu) running 16.0.
On his phone about every 2-3 days.
Deleting cache/data didn´t help.
Also a clean install of 16.0 on my friends Nexus6 didn´t solve this behaviour.
Permissions for the dialer-app of course are all set to "allowed" (contacts, storage, etc)
except location and WiFi/mobile data connections.
Thanks for your great work, and best regards !
Can anyone tell me details of what can be transferred from an old phone to a new P6P using the provided quick switch adapter? Can it transfer all apps and their data or only the ones with Google backup capability?
Thanks in advance!
The "ordinary" transfer won't restore your app settings, like your passwords/logins/in-app data.
Google One Backup is supposed to do that, even though it never worked for me. In the end I had to use swiftbackup whilst having root to have a decent backup/transfer experience.
--
There is some sort of auto-login system that some apps support, so Google logs you in automatically into the app once you first open them after transfering all your stuff, but that has nothing to do with the transfer/backup. Sadly, only very few apps support that.

Thank you, that's what I was afraid of. I can't believe that Google doesn't want to create a proper backup or transfer solution. So bad. I guess SwiftBackup it is...

Been into android since the T-Mobile G1 days and I'm a firm believer in setting up a new phone from scratch. Did my wifes from her OnePlus 7 Pro and the screen would freeze every 4-6 hors. Did a FDR and it's been running great for the last 3 days. Your always going to get bits and pieces from the last OS that don't belong on your new OS when transferring from another phone.

This makes more and more sense now a days!
Google wants to sell the cloud as much as possible. I restore GoogleOne backups from the cloud and I'm usually satisfied with the results.
I used to start from scratch but I stopped at some point several years ago. I just want my phone to work the way I'm used to. I don't use the stock launcher anyway, I use Nova Launcher Prime. Later on, I integrate elements from the new Android version and widgets/capabilities into my current Nova setup.
I never used the quick switch adapter and Google's transfer tool. I always root my phone and use Titanium Backup to restore my apps. Although, on Android 12, I think I'm gonna go for Swift Backup which I've heard good things about!
I'm still using my 4 XL for now, not sure if I want to jump on the 6 Pro with an unofficial alpha version of Magisk :/

I'd advise you to wait at least for the first or second rollout of bug fixes if you are keen on root, as of now there are a lot of software quirks that might be firmware related; if you root now, upgrading to the next monthly update might be a nightmare. As far as I can see right now, every successful root requires a full factory reset (not the bootloader unlock reset!). And every "update" will aswell (maybe the community will find a way around that, but we don't know right now).

100% on board with this. Whenever I clean flash (new phone or new OS update) I start from scratch. Download or sideload all my apps anew. Takes several hours to set up but well worth it in the long run.

Yeah, I've been reading as much as I can about root and it's not super fun right now. It remains to be seen if we can update monthly without wiping. Otherwise, that would be a MAJOR pita.
I'm gonna be traveling in about 2 weeks and I was hoping to bring my 6 Pro with me. My 4 XL is perfectly fine but not sure the battery will last while traveling. We'll see.
I am currently using an IQOO 9 pro (China version-OriginOS) in Greece. I came across a problem that I can't solve, no matter how hard I've tried: The "personal hotspot" does not work when I have my mobile data on (no wifi). When I have my device on wifi, other devices will recognise, connect and share internet but when ONLY my mobie data are on, other devices can see and connect to the "iqoo 9 pro network" but without internet. Factroy reset and Network Settings reset were in vain. I contacted IQOO support in India but they were not very helpful. I had the same problem with my IQOO 8 pro some time ago but did not bother to try and fix it. (I strongly believe it s a "setting" problem rather than me being SO unlucky to buy two similar phones with the very same (and only) problem.
Any suggestion/input would be most appreciated.
thx.
EDIT:
1) Problem solved Had to do with some Vodafone APN parameters so with a little experimentation and luck I got it right .
2) When I initially got the phone, had a lot of troubles with messages not coming (push notifications also, especially from my bank app, not allowing me to approve a transaction on time etc). With a little search and a lot of help from the topics in this section, I get notifications (messenger for example) faster than my PC, got rid of some Chinese bloatwear, solved the "hotspot" problem and by now, I have an excellent device, very fast, very customisable, working perfectly with other devices (my smartwatch for example), with a great camera, a really good battery (better than Samsung S21 Ultra that I was using 1 month ago). The only tiny problem now is this "Vivo security keyboard" that sometimes comes up (does not allow Google autofill- Google keyboard works fine btw) but is a minor problem, plus the lack of Android Auto witch (for me) is less than minor.
All in all If you give it a little time and effort you might end up with an excellent overall phone, a very premium-feeling-and-performing phone. No more overpriced Sammy Exynos garbage for me.
Hello,
i just switched to a pixel 7 pro with android 13 and the sync with the Health app is not working (HUAWEI WATCH 3). Not even notifications and phone calls.
Has anyone solved the problem?
I have already tried to install the official versions of Health and HMS, and also the latest ones found on apkmirror but none of them work.
Thank you
Hi, same problem here.
Any solution?
Aa looks I'm not alone, I just spend 6 hours in support on huawei and Google but non of them can't help. I thing they even didn't know there is issue.
Have same problem with watch 3 pro.
But watch gt 3 pro works fine but on that is just rename d liteOs to Harmony Os.
Watch 3 pro has real Harmony OS that I thing will some issue with permission. It's just my guess but I hope someone find solution. I try it last 3 days to play around it.
Looks watch 3 and watch 3 pro (real harmony OS) has this issue.
Ps: more wierd is i gotalso pixel 6 pro and there watch 3 pro works completely fine, no issue at all.
I have the Same Problem no found the Failire at the monent
Same here. Please let us know if there's any info on this.
Mine doesn't get notifications with Pixel 7 Pro either
When do we think we will get a fix? I'd say never.
I have decided to sell off my 3 Pro. I think Google are making sure Huawei Watches don't function fully on Pixel Phones.
I'm facing the same issue with my huawei watch.
Exactly the same here. Pixel Pro 7, Huawei Watch 3 Pro, tried everything multiple times thinking i must be missing something. No notifications to the watch at all- calls, texts, alarms. Continuous heartrate and Sp0 won't work now. And watch won't sync. Sucks. Also have issues with viewing website imbedded video in auto-rotated landscape, and my CCTV cameras in landscape on the Pixel( Reolink and Camhi).
So i assume the watch is 1st issue, and the phone is 2nd issue. How annoying.
Anyone found any solution yet?
I realized my heart rate and spo2 levels also don't sync with my pixel 7 pro. Skin temperature, stress level and sleep records sync without any issues.
I went into watch settings and allowed each and every permission one by one.
No notifications whatsoever! I regret the day I bought this watch. And because of this, I will not be buying any otherr Huawei watch. It's a shame because I really like their watches.

Nah I tried all that too. I'm just assuming Google don't like Huawei anymore due to all the bans and stuff. I've just ordered a Ticwatch Pro 3 ultra instead whilst they're on sale. Hopefully that'll work ok using Wear OS.

I understand google not allowing their softwares on Huawei products but restricting people's choices of hardware is over the top.
I also believe Huawei is extremity slow in updating their softwares. Their watch was working fine with pixel 6 from what I see online. But Pixel 7 uses Android 13 and I believe Huawei Health and HMS Core doesn't yet support Android 13. We are also yet to see Huawei Pay in UK! I've paid good money for the watch not long ago and I can't see myself spending extra to buy another brand! I'll claim my free Pixel Watch soon but reviews doesn't look too good!
Same issue faced here. GT runner on both pixel 7 and oneplus 9R (Android 13 beta). I think Android V13 might not allow apps those are not from PLAY STORE to have the permission. Here's my workaround with a fresh start:
1. Install "Huawei Health" at the PLAY STORE (very old version)
2. Grant the permission in the system settings
3. Install "Huawei Health" at the Huawei website
4. Connect Huawei watch to the phone
Now your sync permission is still there. Btw, I dont know whether you can get the permission back if you cancel it now

This works.
Pixel 7 pro with android 13 cloned from Huawei P20 pro,
Huawei Watch 3 Pro.
Huawei Health app offered me an update and after I agreed it downloaded an .apk file. After the update, I deleted the pairing of my Huawei Watch 3 Pro with my old phone and started a new pairing, the watch generated a QR code. I ran a scan in Huawei Health and the pairing was successful. There is a problem, pairing breaks in watch ultra long battery life mode. This worked with the p20.
I saw Huawei released a new update for the Huawei Health application. Version: 13.0.0.320. Does anyone know if this solves the issue with Android 13? If not, I will wait with updating. Cheers!

This didn twork with pixel 7 pro and watch 3 pro.
Actually there is no issue with permission, watch just not have sync from phone. I can go to contact also use Internet through Bluetooth, but watch didnt have info permissions from app of continuous measurement or update weather or show notifications etc.
Looks like some share info missing or they didn't have.
Unfortunately pixel monthly update didn't fix this. Hope will app update soon to fix this.
Ps: my GT3 pro works completely fine, must be watch 3 series issue real harmony OS.
GT3 series use LiteOS renamed to Harmony OS.
Has there been any updates to the Hauwei health app to fix this problem?
I have the same problem , and i'm still lo0king for a solution.
I have been looking round the net & wondered if the problem was an out of date HMS Core software.
Has anyone updated to the latest HMS Core & then tried and see if notifications come through & phone calls?
on android 13 apps that are not in the latest play store will have limited permissions, just like huawei health ... take a look at this Youtube video
, a solution for that , and it worked on my huawei smart watch,.... for HMS which always crashes on android 13 use this version https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/huawe...ces/huawei-mobile-services-6-0-0-305-release/
