I was getting 8h SOT… And now I’m still getting 8h of SOT.
Hey, pnloyd, just a quick heads-up:
**noticable** is actually spelled **noticeable**. You can remember it by **remember the middle e**.
Have a nice day!
^^^^The ^^^^parent ^^^^commenter ^^^^can ^^^^reply ^^^^with ^^^^’delete’ ^^^^to ^^^^delete ^^^^this ^^^^comment.
I’ll agree with you on this. It’s still a great update though! Especially the battery part.. it’s really noticable.
Hahaha, love it <3
I’m having a field day now, multicolored notification panel. Fuck that sms issue I don’t care. lmao 🐮
Not really… There’s nothing here that warrants everyone complaining for a few months.
Hooray!
Huh, randomly fixed. I’d been right through time after time making sure everything was enabled, following guides to turn off power saving on location services, using GPS Status, No luck. Then Google maps randomly asked if I’d like to turn on something like device.location.something and now I’m back to getting a fix from up to 10 satellites.
I had a Nexus 5X, which made me inmune to 2 things:
* Touching lava
* Camera bumps
And if it’s the 6X as we think it’ll have the largest camera bump ever. Seriously it’s huge.
Sometimes it works in second try.
Already have it turned on.
Try again with Wi-Fi connected.
Didn’t work for me. (the Netherlands)
Well I think it is like that in Google Pixel (gen1) and it doesn’t have round corners, maybe Google wants it that way
It’s your own risk. I’m doing it in every update and didn’t have any problems so far.
The battery life become worst than last may update… Man… Should i factory reset?
I heard that you shouldn’t clear carrier services because it messes up a lot of things on your device
http://www.talkandroid.com/185088-google-engineer-explains-why-you-shouldnt-clear-google-services-framework-data/
Odd, no such issue here on 8.0
Clear data for Carrier Services and Google Service Framework (choose system from upper left in apps tab to find it), before checking for update. Update will show immediately.

I didn’t get the update yet 🙁
Is there any way to trigger it?
Yes
Woow didnt knew that!
Thanks
No update yet for me in Belgium. Is there a way to force it?
Yeah it’s not cheap compared to the cost of the phone (since it’s now dirt cheap) but you can probably get it down to 30 with shipping on Ali if your county doesn’t rape all packages from China with VAT and fees.
$50 though… Think I’d rather replace the phone entirely and use it as a media/chromecast remote at home.
Add a Spigen case and a glass screen protector to your order, too. This device is as pretty as it is fragile. If you’re clumsy, you need a THICC cover and a thicc screen protector.
The volume before the May update was IMO wayyyyyyyyy too loud, like even on minimum volume I couldn’t stand it. I’m happy they moderated it a bit, but I see people complaining a lot
Can you take a screenshot of the new launcher?
and CLEARLY this happens just after my A1 breaks and is being RMA’d, and is also out of stock for when I get a refund
Do you have any mobile network bugs? I cannot connect to the mobile network after the update. It is not showing 4G or 3G, connection is not working.
Edit: I just fixed it, it deleted my APN.
I bought from Honorbuy since they had it in EU warehouse. A bit pricey compared to Aliexpress sellers but excellent quality and speed. And remember, screen *with frame* is what you want.
SMS app has been updated, so you lose your SMS. No big deal for most people though. Back them up if you need them prior to update. I was using Nova launcher so I already had black buttons in night mode. So far I haven’t found anything new 🙁
Time to charge to 100%, power off, restart and test battery performance. Used to get 9 hrs sot with looping video. Nice if it’ll hit the magic 10 hours sot.
Does anyone having a problem with VoLTE? Mine can’t detect signal post June update
i also had the feeling
this tint thing works good with fotos, with abstract pics not so mich IMHO
Well, any recommendations?
Haven’t tried enabling it again thus far because I’m not certain if the non-root tool will work on 8.1
It was about time smfh!!!
Im still downloading… May i ask how is the battery life now? The last may update fix my battery drain bug, my battery sot now is great again… Im afraid to update and getting back the bad battery life like before
Well, I’m thinking I just need one as a daily driver then upgrade to another Xiaomi Android One device next year.
my apps/games load faster?
very happy
But they should disable those on devices without round corners. They can absolutely do that.
Remember that the A2 release is inminent, which features a Snapdragon 660 instead of the 2015 Snapdragon 625. It will also (probably) have no headphone jack, which **sucks**. But if that somehow doesn’t bother you much, you may want to wait for the A2.
* Bugfixes
* Battery and performance optimisations
* Apps are limited to 1 notification sound per second, no more sound spam.
* Better text selection
* New power menu
* Dark UI when using a dark background
* Many UI changes that makes the OS more pretty
* Bluetooth battery status
* WiFi speed labels
Happy?
Doing a factory reset disables Camera2 API mate 🙂
Is it out in India? I didn’t get any notification for the update
Would seem to work at first, putting me in the right position when I first opened maps or whatever. Then as soon as I first lost a GPS signal that would be it, I’d just stay in one place. Turn off location, turn it back on, I’d be in the right place but then after a minute or so of tracking me I’d just stop dead.
Just updated and it’s okay so far. I don’t know about the SMS issue since I deleted all of them a few days ago.
Been saying that since the beginning… No one.could answer me why they wanted 8.1 so badly.
Just updated! This is the best smartphone yet! 🐂
What issue did you have with it?
It bootlooped until I relocked the bootloader
No, it keeps working.
actually it wasn’t
??
You talk as if Xiaomi was the company who created Android 8.1, but Android 8.1 has been available for months on other devices. You could have checked what new features it has beforehand. Xiaomi wasn’t gonna bring a “better 8.1” or a “worse 8.1” they were just gonna bring 8.1 and so they did
What about Camera2 API and GCam? It’s gonna be disabled?
Thanks mate.
Guys. Installing this updates ends up in formatting all the data? I mean the update itself makes a factory reset?
GPS seemed to go to shit in the last update, any improvement?
dark wallpaper
You need a dark wallpaper. With a light one, you’ll get the white panel :).
How to enable it
do i need to perform factory reset after this update ?
Pretty high fall even for it’s pretty resistant screen. Thanks for the info btw, sorry you broke your phone though.
literaly nothing in this update.
small bugfixes and thats all 🙂
i bet that they just changed number version and dimmed a bit overall theme.
on serious note, this update is so small, that could be added in standard monthly patch.
can’t say 8.1 was worth waiting for.
Well… this was unexpected
you edit is the reason why. did you try enabling it back afterwards? i want to reset my phone now that im 8.1
There’s no backup option as far as I can tell
Audio is good, bit louder, but still not as loud as before May. Obviously they are very concerned about our hearing, even tho I never listened to max volume for more than 20 minutes before the May update, otherwise my ears started to hurt. The amp is really powerful.
Nah you get screen + frame and just swap the components over. Good as new. Back panel just pries off, no glue on the A1. My replacement have identical panel and digitizer as the original. Just buy from a reputable seller.
In this case not really, I hope to at least, but we will wait until then and see.
“ASAP” in xiaomi terms 😀
I didn’t lose mine. I use the Google SMS app (Messages)
Got the update,messages are gone and there’s a time on the lockscreen also status bar icons seem to be more roundish and notification panel has a transparent tint
Yup
Updated and tested. The bug has been fixed.
Google messenger. That’s stock right? At least that’s what my phone came with.
I’m in the process of moving. Stuck the phone under my leg while driving and forgot about it when getting out of the van. It fell from about 1.5m, unprotected. Screen shattered bottom right, cracks all over the lower half of the phone. Still usable, but I’m gonna replace it once a good deal on Note 5 rolls around.
Xiaomi promised that we will get it ASAP hahaha
Did that on a Note 4. Never again… Replacements are shit quality and you pretty much can’t pull it of without replacing the back panel too. So fuck that.
Updated, messages are still there
I would like some details on how you broke the screen if you didn’t mind and how badly it got since it looks pretty durable on youtube.
Im having an error of ui has stopped and i cant use the phone because is rebooting
My phone is rooted, what happens if I install the update?
Finally 🙂
Mine are still there as well but I am using Signal as my SMS app. Maybe it has somthing to do with that? Are you using the standard app or as well a third party one?
I think the tint is based on your wallpaper, it is a feature
You could easily replace the screen. There are tons of tutorials on youtube and the screen itself is inexpensive.
Finally
Now I wonder how many ~~years~~ months it will take to get Android P when it releases
(That’s even if we get it)
My sms are static. No loss! I don’t use any launcher!
Thank god that was driving me mad. Just downloading it now hope I get the same result.
Also it seems that my battery is stuck it was at 34% after the system rebooted for the update to install and it’s just stuck there.
One day after I broke the screen on this damn thing. Looking at Note 5 now…
Does any body else have problems with the notifications? The text is very tiny on some parts…
Edit: I think i fixed it, had to uninstall a custom dark theme i was using
Hey, racingmachine, just a quick heads-up:
**wierd** is actually spelled **weird**. You can remember it by **e before i**.
Have a nice day!
^^^^The ^^^^parent ^^^^commenter ^^^^can ^^^^reply ^^^^with ^^^^’delete’ ^^^^to ^^^^delete ^^^^this ^^^^comment.
I think there is some issue with lockscren oveay color and the colour of the overlay when expanding notifications. Sometime or in certain light conditions they get a blue tint.
I used the rootless tool yet camera2 still works for me.
Damn, that’s odd.
Same, none root using the automatic tool.
Is yours Magisk-enabled? Because mine was through the sans-rooting tool on XDA
Got it just now on my A1. I am downloading now.
Ohgodohgodohgod…
Edit: Yes! Finally a black notification panel <3
Is there a PH user that can confirm that the update has arrived? Deciding between this and the Redmi S2, and if the update is here, I might sway towards the A1.
Don’t know how this happened. Mine’s stock af, no root.
I guess I was lucky… nothing missing
Using textra as my TXT app if that makes a difference
Edit: lost all my sms messages also.
I downloaded another sms app and it’s empty. I guess textra cached the messages.
My gcam still works fine
I think this means I have camera2 enabled
Are you using the stock launcher? What’s up with that overused white thing around the dock. Looks terrible.
Also confirmed here
The day has come
Damn, Camera2 API disabled after update.
Edit: Could be because I did a factory reset before updating.
I was aware of this bug: https://www.xda-developers.com/xiaomi-mi-a1-android-8-1-oreo-june-security-patches/ still didn’t take a backup. 🙁
Can confirm, all sms’s are gone.
Yes, sms.
Did they fix anything like the in-call proximity sensor not completely disabling the touchscreen?
Lost all messages. So take a backup.
also the new launcher looks shit.
Checking……..yup I get the system update now…downloading 1.2GB
Just got it now
The Bluetooth bug has been fixed for me. The phone no longer needs a restart when Bluetooth’s switched on.
Edit: System files seem to take 11GB of space now, as opposed to 13GB before this update.
Did they fix the sound?
Took them long enough…
It’s 8.1 Design
It is because some devices have round corners
Yep, got this now!
Wow, 1157mb, must be 8.1. I’ll edit when I finish updating.
EDIT: 8.1 indeed.
