Android Oreo 8.0 update, another bug - Incoming calls screen

NunoSEN2 — Wed, 25 Oct 2017 10:15:18 GMT

Just find out that the the screen for the incoming calls after the Android 8.0 update is the same of the 7.1.1 (swipe to the side to answer or reject calls) and I think that with the 8.0 update it was suposed to swipe up to answer calls or down to reject.

Does everybody have the same bug?

My phone is the dual SIM (G8142).

There is another feature missing from the Xzp that the Xz1 has. The flash light mode for the front camera. I hoped that the XZ Premium would also get it. Many phones have it, why didnt they add it for the Xzp?

soo next year u want us to buy new sony devices. NEVER this my last sony mobile . who knows what will be the new issues with the next year device. if sony care about their customers they will provide the fix for the issue.

If Sony didn't cared, there wouldn't be new updates to fix bugs nor to add new features, keep it friendly and constructive, and please do NOT spread rumors

The disadvantages of the update :

1- No Flash for front camera

( flash light, like in XZ1 / iPhone 7,8,X )

2- Still Not supported font style

Currently supported in:
Samsung - LG - HTC - Huawei - Lenovo - Asus - oppo - Xiaomi - One Plus

( All of these 9 companies ) They support font style support without Root and Sony still ( Available only in Japanese software) , this is big shame !!!

3- Still no more " Ambient Display "

Not need for OLED display

4- The themes now not applying for some apps

( setting, Clock ) Sony will kill this feture

5- Still no adaptive icons ( calender / o'clock )

@alaa_buhussaien

I thought point 3 was for OLED displays. Do you have any source link on this (for LCD displays) ?

Hi,

I think support for font style will arrive shortly. I see an apk by Sony called "Font Selector" in apkmirror. Check here

I saw from few months ago, I already installed in my device successfully, but after restart my device not changed

Sony need to edit the framework "System Ui" to working fine.

What about the feature that turns on Wi-Fi automatically based on your location? This was a great feature way back on my Xperia Z3, and then Sony just killed it for some unknown reason.

Check number 6:

https://www.tomsguide.com/us/pictures-story/1085-best-android-o-features.html#s6

Auto-enable Wi-Fi

A clever, new feature will automatically turn your phone’s Wi-Fi back on based on your location. This way, your phone can connect to your home network when you arrive, saving you from any fiddling with the device.

To enable this feature, go to Network and Internet > WiFi > WiFi Preferences. Then toggle on the setting. Your phone will then use its location knowledge to reconnect to networks like your home Wi-fi. It’s a clever way to save on data usage and use the phone’s internal smarts without flipping the Wi-Fi on and off.

This update indeed lacks TONS of stuff which was originally advertised. The 3D scanner is the only major thing that I have noticed so far.... 1.2GB of nothingness....

KC95 — Thu, 25 Jan 2018 21:06:36 GMT

But the thing is why would Xperia xz1 be privileged for the new dialer ui and stuffs like those. Why can't the last year's flagship atleast get the UI changes. Why would Xperia XZ and XZP users be deprived of the changes though being upgraded to Android O. I believe Sony cares for user experience, but why not give those little changes. We are not requesting for a feature that the hardware doesnt support, are we! These are small things... A little work on the XZ1 phone apk so that it fits the XZ. And as we saw from XDA community, it does support on Xperia XZ without root or anything, just a regular installation works. Then why not as an official update!
