No problem.
Thank you I’ll do that If I get any issues.
Thank you because Im having some 25+ GB amount of movies & tvseries thats why I don’t want it to be erased with this update
OnePlus did the same thing last year
Yes you are correct. I misunderstood. My bad.
this is not PiP, it’s multiwindows. Only PiP on Youtube require Youtube Red
I did the factory reset via settings and after playing around with the Oreo update for an hour or so but not immediately after boot.
I just found another user saying the same in the Telegram group.
If they’ve removed that I’m gonna be so miffed.
I haven’t got the update yet bud to confirm anything, ask the OP /u/Santr
Shit, have they really done a Night Mode removal from QS (unless you had it enabled previously on the DP3) again but for swipe for notifications?
Can I get a screenshot of your settings/gestures page please?
Did you factory rest via settings or recovery ?
Should I do this ASAP after Oreo has been booted ?
Works for me though. [Screenshot](https://i.imgur.com/dN3EkVK.png)
And I’m not using YouTube Red
Did they seriously call Prophet [Dan](https://github.com/morrildl), Dan Morris?
Banned from acj.
Factory reset helped me get rid of scrolling stutter. Cannot comment about the hissing sound though.
Lol, Motorola already released Oreo for it’s Android one version of X4 and then released for the normal one too so yeah still catching up to do.. Still I commend Xiaomi to keep their promise
No qc for me.
Quick charging isn’t there in the update. i tried charging with the oneplus dash charger but it charges normally. It only shows Charging rapidly with both Mi charger and OnePlus charger
Same
Wait, so that Nougat? Looks like the Oreo notification shade.
Lol I don’t know. Happy New year anyway 😉
Wait, so that Nougat? Looks like the Oreo notification shade.
Which ones are missing?
The chosen one
Ugh.. what’s wrong with them. 🙁
No, it doesn’t. Still need to enable it manually.
W00t? Didn’t receive the update yet. That’s good news
I read this in Teal’cs voice, dunno why
Does this update enables camera2 api??
Still can’t detect 🙁
What if I was stupid enough to do that? What now?
Catch them and get your phone back first
Yes, everything stays exactly as it were on nougat.
The nougat installed apps & pictures will be there even after the update ? I thought the update will clean everything like a factory reset as it a new software and all.
Haven’t returned yet. And the swiping feature is missing in gesture section.
You are lucky 🙂
Yeah i enabled it on nougat and its working on oreo for me
Yes the swipe fingerprint sensor gesture feature (Option) is completely gone. I don’t know whether they will add it again in an update or not. Looks like you’ve enabled this feature before the Oreo update because for users who haven’t enabled this before the O Update the gesture doesn’t work & there’s no way to turn it off or on unless they use a 3rd party app & you can disable the feature too unless you use a 3rd party app for it or else it will be turned on until an update comes or until Android P.
Fuck theives.
Yeah, there is only “jump on camera” gesture.
Do you mean swipe fingerprint sensor gesture?
You dont have to backup
And OP, the Swipe for notifications in gestures is missing right ?
Do I have to backup photos & apps before updating or all the photos & apps which supports 8.0 will be there even after the update ?
Thank you so much, done this and it appeared immediately, can’t wait to try it
Ahh yes, YouTube Red aka it’s a region specific feature.
[NewPipe](https://f-droid.org/en/packages/org.schabi.newpipe/) is a good alternative for those in most parts of the world.
Thanks for the reply, yep only a few users are reporting this I don’t know what happened.
Nope, everything is working fine.
OP, got any bugs like camera not opening & swipe for notifications gesture doesn’t work ?
Same still nothing
http://www.talkandroid.com/185088-google-engineer-explains-why-you-shouldnt-clear-google-services-framework-data/
“Through a Reddit thread, Morris essentially said that clearing the service framework data will break things. He said that doing so essentially changes the ID of your device, so as far as servers are concerned you have given your device a factory reset. This will then invalidate tokens used by any app that uses GCM, which includes almost all Google apps and a number of third party apps. Apps like Gmail will not get notifications for a while, but will eventually be fine. Other apps will simply cease to get GCM-push notifications until they get a new GCM ID, which might take a while.”
What’s the build number on this one? Is it the same as the one on http://en.miui.com/getrom-333.html?m=yes&mobile=2 ?
Nothing yet from Thailand
Xiaomi is the new 2013-2015 Motorola
Restarted but no luck.
Mine still working. Try restarting your device.
I have it, maybe try a restart?
There should be a new dialer app in the app drawer, if not – download Google Dialer from Play Store
No need to clean Play Services data, GSF is enough. Got the update that way
I hope they will add them too, but adaptive icons should be among their priorities because some of the icons changed, they are now in a circle but they weren’t, looks a bit odd
Installed Oreo on Mi A1 but swipe fingerprint scanner to pull notifications is missing 🙁
Update: It’s working after performing a factory reset.
Really? Can you screenshot please.
It’s missing. Many Android O features isn’t available.
Can you find the adaptive icons setting? Or is it missing?
Weird wasn’t the beta on January patch? Maybe it was a typo?
idk about qc but it’s december 1st security patch
Quick charge enabled? January security patch?
Also delete carrier data.
Props to you dude it works!!
I see an option to clear play services cache but not data?
Yes, I’ve tried that way, no luck.
For youtube videos you need to select desktop site and play videos in full screen, it’ll work after that
Oh really? Then it’s a bummer. I’ve tried on Chrome as well, but same result, the app is closed when I hit the home button.
Same here.
It worked on the first try thanks!
Xiaomi sent me a message saying ‘everyone on /r/Xiaomi who says the update wouldn’t come in 2017 will not be receiving the OTA on their Mi A1s’.
A sidegrade. Less powerful, smaller battery.
Better build, better camera, USB-C and updates.
I know that bud, what I’ve asked is what’s the app you are using. PiP won’t work on YouTube unless you have a YouTube Red Subscription which is not yet available in many countries. These are the the five Countries Red is available Australia,
Korea,
Mexico,
New Zealand,
The United States, if you are not in one of the countries above you can’t use the PiP Mode in YouTube, but you can use it in Chrome.
it’s not an app, but a feature that allow you to keep watching a video window while using another app. I’ve tried using YouTube app, watching video on full screen and when I touch the home button, it’s closed.
It worked, just had to check two or three times before getting the notification. Thanks!
What’s the app ?
The picture-in-picture feature is not working.
Which is interesting because of the recent update for dual SIM support in the Contacts app

Still nothing in Croatia.
Edit: just got it.
It’s works , thanks nilesmon
Defiantly!
My dialer gone missing, how do I recover back the dialer?
Yes. Screen is much better, so is the loudspeaker. Despite having less battery capacity, it lasts much longer compared to the duration my new RN3 used to last. Personally I like the stock Android. Camera is litlte bit of an improvement.
Best thing for me…excellent memory management!
My RN3 got stolen a month ago 🙁
Is this phone a good upgrade over a RN3 ?
Thanks, works for me.
Me too but my belief was slowly fading away as 2017’s end was getting closer lol
My A1 got stolen a month ago. Feels bad man 🙁
I followed his steps exactly and after a few tries of checking the update, it appeared.
Holy cow, for real ?? Xiaomi hands down you are the best.
Did you force stop them as well?
Just now updated, you will get soon.
This worked, thanks!
Not working for me. Anything that I could be doing wrong?
same here chale…..
Nothing special. Came by itself as a normal update
Just ran through these steps and have the update notification, thank you!
What a luck! Just as I clicked on this post, I got a notification of Android O update. Xiaomi, you are amazing.
P.S: obviously its co-incidence.
Yes thats why 3rd step is important or else your email wont get sync and other syncing problems.I did these steps for my last 3 updates no problems encountered.
For users not getting update follow these steps:
1.Go to apps in settings and click on three dotted menu in top right corner and select show system apps.
2.Then select google services framework and clean data.
3.Then select google play services and clean data(if you dont then there will be syncing problem ).
4.Now check for the update.
And Happy New Year everyone.

Just got it
You can force stop the Google Services Framework and clear its data then try checking for system update again. But I’ve read somewhere that doing so messes up with your device so do it at your own risk.
México here and nothing yet.
Germany here. Downloading 🙂
No updates here in Nepal as well 🙁
From India, still waiting for oreo
I love it when companies stick to their promises. Guess I’ll havy my brand loyalty to Xiaomi from now on <3
Definitely me!
Well im proud that Xiaomi kept their promise, I’ve always believed in them. Now i’m just waiting for people to complain “where’s android 8.1?!?!?!”
Nothing showing up for me yet in Australia, I know what I’ll be doing for the day now ^constantly ^refreshing 😂
Edit: able to download now using u/nilesmon method in his comment

Indeed.
Xiaomi delivered on their promise.
Yes its Oreo!
Downloading! Hopefully!
