I am using my Note 8 N5100 since last two months. I mostly use Chrome as my default Internet Browser.
Recently I have updated the chrome app (The update brings a nice feature: full screen navigation). Since then I am having this peculiar problem.
1. A part of the web-page usually getting hidden under the navigation bar. If there is any link in that area, it is nearly impossible to click on that as it is hidden.
2. Tapping exactly on the link is not working always. I have to tap a little lower to select the exact target link. Surprisingly this problem does not exist if I zoom the page and tap on the desired link.
This problem is only with chrome browser. The stock android browser/dolphin/UC works fine.
This is my first week with my new brown note 8.0 and I noticed the same issue. In just went back to stock browser and will wait for next up date for chrome and hope it fixes it.
Same issue as well.

Seems to be fixed in the latest Chrome Beta.

I have the same issue.
I think your problems 1 and 2 are the same problem.
The link you touched is in the correct place, but the page displays a little bit higher.

This is a known issue and they are working on it.
I'm also having this issue, hopefully it'll get fixed soon
Here's a workaround using Xposed Framework:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=43569866&postcount=17
Actually, just download the Chrome BETA which was refreshed this past Thursday. It fixes the issues you describe and works extremely well on my Note 8..
When I press the recent apps button, it doesn't always refresh the list of apps that I just used. For example, the apps appear in the last order that I saw them in, and a newly launched app doesn't appear in the list at all. My workaround solution is to press the recent apps button, click on the home screen, then press recent apps again to refresh the list. I love my OP3, but this can get pretty annoying. Any ideas on how to fix this? If not, perhaps you can recommend a good multitasking app?
This is a bug that a number of people across various forums have been reporting only recently so presumably it is a bug OP have introduced in one of the latest updates.

Thanks for your response. I've only found two others who have the same problem on the OP3, and one of them said it existed for them since an older update. I wonder if installing a custom rom would fix this type of issue.

I have been seeing this since the latest update. I use it constantly so noticed.
Hello there,
I recently purchased a used HTC 10 (original purchase date ~5.2016)...
Every time I am searching the flash deals in the Amazon App (I think I have similar problems with AliExpress too, but I am not able to reproduce this on poruse. Amazon is every time making these problems.), I have this weird scrolling behavior.
Procedure:
1. Open App - enter flash deals
2. scroll list, click on entry, go back
3. scroll further
---> Screen will return to the position, where you last checked one entry by clicking on it.
It looks like the "keyboard-choosing-cursor" is stuck there. (Yellow frame around the entry), and I can't go much further down, until it will scoll up again.
Fixing is going back to previous page, going back again, scrolling down to the last items I was.
This is not the workaround I could live with, since I am very limited on using these apps.
Already shoot some google searches, but only got things like "not responsive touch" etc...
Other apps seems normal, eBay has no such problem since now...
Amazon seems to have this problems only within the flash-sales, not the normal.
For AliExpress I wasn't able to reproduce this on purpose.
Is this a app specific fault? Or is it my device?
I am coming from a M7 with CyangenMod 13 (6.0.1) and I am running on the 10 6.0.1 Stock...
Someone else experiencing this? Or heard about it?
I am very clueless..
Thanks

I've noticed this behaviour too with Swipe for Facebook and Chrome Browser. I could reproduce with Swipe by opening an external link with, for example, a floating browser like Flynx, returning to Swipe app i can't scroll well, same behaviour as your. I noticed that to the dev and it comes with a fix, but in the same time i had an update from Google Webview (Beta) in the Play Store, so i can't say who was the guilty one., but I don't have this problem now.
I make these statements because both Swipe for Facebook, Chrome Brtowser and Amazon use html wrapper/webview, but i can be wrong.
I just received the instruction to update webview from the amazon support.
Well ... I oped out the beta program, reinstalled webview and now I am fine
I have read your post to late. But you are mentioning webview too, so I think it is all about webview. Do you use the beta too?
Conclusion for me:
WebView Beta was the culprit. Reinstalling the stable fixed it for me.

It happens with beta chrome and webview. If an item is selected it will scroll back to that item. It has to stay in the viewport. Just deselect the item to fix it.

Here in xda, on xperia zx1 forum, Tornlogic say:
Tornlogic said:
So I have installed the update and did some quick benchmarks before and after the update. Interesting results. So naturally the benchmarks that happened in the morning were before I installed the update and the ones in the afternoon were after I installed the update.
As for the battery benchmark, I simply ran each test for 1 hour 10 minutes. So yea, the new update provided better battery performance but worse single core... by a little. Multi-core was a tad better with the new update. This of course is not all inclusive results, as I only ran one benchmark, and that has no indication of real-life performance. If I don't notice anything drastic in the next few days, I won't post anything else here, otherwise I will keep you posted.

I ran geekbench yesterday and did not see any real difference in singlecore or multicore performance (both +- about 5 points difference to last firmware).
Auto-brightness works much better now. Also it looks like "GPS icon staying forever" bug is gone for me.
Smart lock option is empty in my sony Xperia xz1? What should I do?
EDIT:
I was able to find the answer here: Yes, I would continue to receive OTA updates for the currently installed firmware.
Original question:
Having purchased the XZ1C in the USA, if I were to flash the ...12.75 Customised DE (for instance), would I no longer receive subsequent OTA updates? Thanks.
Hello
Update installed this evening (French time).
Good news, the update file is only 112Mo to download OTA.
some new functionalities:
contact shortcuts have a small contact icon
URL shorcut looks like a Windows shorcut, with a small black Arrow at the bottom.
I have to test more now.

Disable Smart Lock (Google) in Trust agents, reboot, enable again. Should make Smart Lock available again, but it may (probably will) go blank again.

Someone just say "Adoptable storage" or ability to move to SD card and it will be okay for me to never update my phone again!
On reboot, persistent GPS icon will not appear until certain applications make use of GPS-based location services (don't know which ones at this point). If the persistent GPS icon does appear, you cannot get rid of it until you reboot. I understand Sony is working on a fix.

The Kernel hasn't been updated in this release at all.
With this new firmware, I'm havin a weird problem.
Every time I reboot, the stock Sony weather widget needs to set location, EVERYTIME.
Is it just me...?
FWIW, No problems with Sony weather app setting location on my phone.
+1
No problems with the weather app here
Thanks!

Great! It worked for me. Thanks!
I wanted to try a different firmware, because of this bug...
Anyone else having problems with the stock clock app? It force closes when I try to open it (only on this firmware). The lockscreen clock and upper right corner of the status bar are unaffected - it's just the app that includes the alarm, timer, stopwatch, etc. I've worked around it by just using Timely for my alarm and stopwatch needs, but it would be nice to have the stock clock working.
No problem for me.
I just got the XZ1 (new from eBay), it had 47.1.A.2.313, I've updated to 47.1.A.12.34, looks good so far, and, this is Android 8.0.0.
I know there is at least one more update, perhaps the 47.1.A.12.75 mentioned in this thread. Is that Android 9.0.0?
I'll update to that, but not now, I'm using my phone. Is there any big change to the latest version?
This is my first Sony phone, since I used a Sony-Ericsson a long time ago.
READ THE OP FIRST BEFORE POSTING!!
This thread is for discussing bugs, issues, work around, and suggestions for the beta for the US models. Please no discussion of the international models. There's already a thread for that, and I don't want to confuse bugs/fixes for the wrong model.
If you have the international model (N975F), please see @henklbr 's thread here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...laxy-note10-sm-n975f-official-oneui2-t3987433
Stay on topic. This thread is to discuss issues with the beta, not how to get it. There's already a couple threads for that as well. The basic step is to sign up for the beta in the Members App, or download the OTA from firmware.science. For further assistance, please see @tlbland0426 's thread at:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...available-note-10-unlocked-sm-n975u1-t4002783
When posting your issues, please state what software version you're on (current one is 2ZSL5), and if you did a dirty flash, restored data, or did a complete clean install.
I know this isn't an official channel to report to Samsung, but bugs discussed here can be forwarded to Samsung in the beta app.
Please read the OP and the entire thread before posting.
Been running the beta (ZSK3) for less than 24 hours. I did officially register, and started to download the OTA through device settings, but it requires WiFi. I was at a hotel and the WiFi there was achingly slow, so I went to firmware.science so I could just download the OTA with LTE, then manually flashed it through recovery.
I performed a clean install. Factory data reset, flash OTA, then another factory data reset. Then I set it up from scratch. I didn't restore anything.
Here is my experience so far:
Pros:
1. Dark Mode - I love the native system-wide dark mode.
2. Space below keyboard - I use gestures and GBoard, and I like how now even third party keyboards are pushed up a bit, and you have the keyboard switcher and close keyboard buttons.*
3. Charge Status Toggle - Ability to turn off the charge status. (Thank you Samsung!)
4. Fingerprint Icon Toggle - Ability to turn the fingerprint reader icon on or off.*
5. Improved Biometrics - Fingerprint reader seems to work MUCH better now. Even with the last few updates on Pie, my FP reader was almost worthless. Now it's nearly flawless.
Cons/bugs:
1. Brightness Slider - No longer able to display brightness control on top in the notification shade. I use the brightness slider a lot, and it's frustrating having to fully expand the notification shade when I want to adjust it.
2. Gestures - The new gestures aren't very intuitive. I prefer the gestures from Pie. I know I can still use those, but I'm really trying to get used to this style, since it's what Google will push everyone toward anyway. This system of gestures is Google fault not Samsung's.
3. Home screen Jank - I occasionally get issues with the home screen freezing. Seems to be when I'm having issues with the gestures, particularly getting Google Assistant to activate via swipe.
4. Syncing issues - There's several Samsung apps/services that will not sync. Samsung Pass, Samsung Internet. Samsung Contacts, and a few others. Under Samsung account settings, when trying to sync them, they say "syncing" then change to "Couldn't sync." This occurs in WiFi and cellular.
5. Disney+ - Not compatible from the Play Store. I was able to install it, log in, and watch movies with a work around, so I know it works. Not sure if this is Disney's problem, or Samsung's. I know it works on other devices running Android 10, so who knows.
6. Netflix - this could've been my issue. I was in the Netflix beta program, and Netflix installed, but kept telling me to update, then telling me it wasn't compatible. I had to leave the beta, and sideload an older version from apkmirror. Working fine now.
7. WiFi issues - It connects to WiFi just fine, but some apps wouldn't load or allow me to sign in while on WiFi. See below.
8.. VUDU - It would initially force close. I deleted and sideloaded an older version that would freeze on the load screen. Updated that version through the Play Store and it wouldn't force close, but would freeze. I was on WiFi and when I turned it off VUDU loaded. (WiFi was pulling 250 Mbps down, so it wasn't the issue).
9. Hulu - When I tried to log in, it kept saying couldn't reach server. Again, was on WiFi in a restaurant pulling 250 Mbps down. But once I shut off WiFi, it signed right in.
10. Full Immersive Mode - This option is still missing in Samsung Internet and most video apps. It works just fine in YouTube and Disney+. We should have the option of using full Immersive Mode at least in the internet browser. As far as movies, make the rounded corners on the black bar less rounded.
Disney+ app workaround. See below.

Download all 4 files from here:
https://drive.google.com/open?id=1-QC8B-Cic3gU00CF3u1pYvP-zWZ663nG
Install the SAI.apk
After that has been installed open that app and then select Install APKs
Select the 3 other apk files that you downloaded then click Select (3) and it will install the working Disney+ app

" 1. Brightness Slider - No longer able to display brightness control on top in the notification shade. I use the brightness slider a lot, and it's frustrating having to fully expand the notification shade when I want to adjust it."
You actually can put it back on top, you just need to set this.
Just press the 3 dots when pulling the dropdown menu, then select the quick layout panel
No issues with Disney+ and Netflix either

Thank you!!! Not sure why they hid that option.
So you were able to download and install Disney+ from the Play Store while on the beta?

Yes no issues with that, but i cannot remember if i installed the apps before i upgraded...
One of the only real issues I'm having is with the new gestures, mainly the recent apps gesture. When using it straight from the home screen it works like 50/50 for me and sometimes causes OneUI Home to crash but using it when you have an app open it seems to work much better.
Edit: (2ZSK3 obviously). I got the OTA through the beta registration and had some issues because I had #hex installed so I did a factory reset. I did however restore everything from Samsung Cloud afterwards.

It still shows as incompatible in the Play Store for me. Go to the Play Store and look for Disney+. Below the unsintall/open buttons, tell me if you see a message in red lettering that the app is now incompatible with your device.

Yes, the recents gesture from home screen is very wonky. I had some home crashes too when I first installed and set everything up, and I actually wound up doing another factory reset to get rid of them.

I have been running the U1 firmware on my Verizon Note 10+ since the day it launched. It retains wifi calling, volte calling, and visual voicemail. The only thing missing that I've found so far is native video calling in the phone app but that wasn't a big deal to me as I never use it anyways.

How'd I miss that! Thank you!
Also found doing factory reset after installing this that whatsapp would no longer verify my number.
So today I sent several feedback reports to Samsung through the OneUI beta app. Please keep the feedback coming. In my experience with past betas, Samsung really does listen to our feedback when it's directed through the proper channels.
Besides the new animations I don't see anything really worth writing home about. It's beta so there's quite a bit of bugs. Android auto on my android 10.25 screen exhibit a buzz and audio moving from car to phone sporadically. The new gesture navigation is not as easy to use. I much prefer using Pie control (which is not 100% compatible now) for launching home, recent, and back. One handed operation to swipe diagonally up to shrink the screen. Diagonally down to bring top of the screen down. I've also seen more battery drain and on screen fingerprint isn't as accurate anymore. Beta 2 is supposed those 2 things. The one UI lock up is also being addressed.
I'm hoping beta 2 will soon be releases for US unlocked. Otherwise, I think I will switch back but dreading that as it will factory reset my device.

Beta 2 was released this morning finally. I agree this is one of the buggiest betas I've tried in the last few years. I'm the opposite of you with the fingerprint reader though. It was almost useless on Android 9. On this beta it's much faster and more accurate. Works nearly 100% of the time for me. Although it seems more sensitive to the screen being dirty.
Beta 2 has been released
I awoke to a notification that beta 2 was released. Below is the changeling from Samsung.

I took the OTA this morning and it seems to be running ok so far. The screen flickering was something I saw alot on beta 1 and that seems to be corrected. My battery life was pretty good on beta 1 also so I will have to see how this performs. Thought it was interesting it has the December security patch already.

My lack of patience and frustration with beta 1 got to me and downgraded to 9 over the weekend. However I did not deregistered for the beta just in case I want to try future betas. The one most frustrating for me was audio output going from car to phone and vice versa when using android auto. I did report it so maybe it will get addressed in beta 3.

You can also restore apps in Smart Switch if you had backed it up on Pie.
