Android 10 WITHDRAWN - Xiaomi Mi A3 Guides, News, & Discussion

I could not believe it, but after consulting some sources I had to recognize that the update to Android 10 has been withdrawn for the third time

And why should I download and install an update that was withdrawn from the house because it encountered programming defects?

Perhaps these are little bugs to you, but not for all.
This is a major fiasco.

I only rendered help to you due to the way you said the update was pulled so I thought you wanted to download/update to the April build but you shouldn't have responded to me in that way. It's rude. I thought this forum is about helping one another, I guess I was wrong. From now on, I guess I will keep to myself.

what are these bugs? just wondering..

I had annoying bugs with Android 10. Chrome kept flickering, full screen gestures not working with 3rd party launchers, slow fp reader, the mobile data kept disconnecting (had to turn on airplane mode on and off to have internet). Now I'm back on miui 11, everything is working fine.

1 - big launcher icons
2 - if you turned apps suggestions off in the launcher, they'll be back after restarting
3 - can't dismiss/swipe away settings suggestions
4 - fingerprint only works if you have aod or wake for notifications turned on
5 - camera
These are the ones i've noticed...

Wow. The launcher icon bug still exists?
What exactly have they fixed in these last 2 rollouts?

Yeah it's really disappointing. While it's not as horrendous as the first version, it should've been a smooth experience by now.

Strangely update is stable for me i haven't faced any issues with this device since I bought it

For the size of icons, you may try changing developer option\ smallest width from stocked 360 to 390 or 395. This can shrink them somewhat.

That's right. I set mine to 411, which is the default dpi of google's pixel phones and many other flagships, and i'm loving it.

Electronic Image Stabilization?
This device has never had EIS.

I got this phone for my mother last year. This update has been so abysmal (I regret updating it after not updating it for the last two times), at times the phone even crashes while calling. Hangs at random times. Didn't really expect it from a Android One phone

A full recovery after a version upgrade is recommended, if you haven't already done so.

1.5 update: new watch face, 3 new ringtones, rollout starts today (24 June)

Not on and English site yet, but here it is in Japanese.
http://consumer.huawei.com/jp/press/news/hw-478102.htm
translation
In this update, watch face-related enhancements and various bug fixes have been made.
The enhanced part, some face corresponds to the color display in the energy-saving mode
"Roman 3D" is added as a new watch face.
new ring tones "Bounce," "Dream it possible", "Spring"
bug fixes: Bluetooth disconnection fix, phone call interrupted fix, cycling is misidentified as climbing fix, tilt-to-wake improved, Google map rotation fix, unexpected restart fix.
Has anyone received it yet?
nothing yet here..... but im excited
Tried to force update. Restarted watch a couple of times. Says I'm up to date but still on 1.4. I'm in Canada if that makes a difference.
effing brilliant!!! So pleased, i just got one and have heard about the red screen tint and that 'upset' me so seeing a fix in the works is great.
C'mon . . . .C'mon - so impatient - checks for update again . . .
Nice find. Waiting for OTA
I got it earlier today. I did TWRP backup, but restored back to MEC23L to see if I could get it again and capture the OTA. Seemed a little faster, probably placebo.

Can u post pics of the new watch face?
Sent from my Nexus 6P using XDA Labs
I couldn't find it. There was just Roman, like normal. No "Roman 3d".
Has anyone had any luck? There's nothing in the UK at the moment, except euroscepticism
Can someone capture the OTA please?
Can someone post the OTA?
thanks for the info... waiting for the OTA
I just received the update! It's not a big improvement. A couple bugfixes like bluetooth! Just 3 new ringtones and a new designed Roman watchface. Pretty cool tough! Can't tell if the red circle is gone because I didn't had that problem. I got the update right after I restored my watch because I had a lot of bluetooth connection problems. http ://imgur. com /a/Qfd5p (please remove the empty spaces)

Just exactly the same as the Roman one. Except there is a 'shiny side' when you tilt your watch. And when you're watch goes into dim mode it's a little bit different. Look my post above.

for those who have gotten the update and use Google fit, can you keep an eye on your step count? when my 360 sport updated to 1.5 my steps dropped like 40% and others have reported the issue as well (though it seems like a minority.) I want to hold off updating my hwatch if this is the case.

So it came in with TWRP installed? I have that and a custom rooted kernel and nothing yet. I wonder if I need to restore to stock to get the OTA?
Would anyone please capture the link of OTA zip file? I'm on the stock FW but still don't receive 1.5. Can't wait for it!
Since those that have gotten it just like to post they they got it. Whats the process of catching it so I can share whenever i get it

Face Unlock much slower after today's update =(

After updating to 43 OTA 004, Faceunlock is no longer instant. now you see first the lockscreen flash and then UI slide in. I went back to 43 OTA 003, but same situation.
before it was just press powerbutton/doubletap screen and the screen turned on showing instantly UI whereever you left off. just like all the reviewers showed it. I dont have file to go back to inital firmware 001 .... :/
VERY DISAPPOINTING, it really breaks the "instant" feeling. hope they fix it soon.
meanwhile, no speed increase in fingerprint reader. still slightly slower than OP3.
UPDATE: solved - it is Nova Launcher with a custom wallpaper that caused this -> back to Oneplus launcher, set new wallpaper = FaceUnlock instant again!
Not a terrible trade-off for more security.
FP sensor still fast af.

thanks, ok then i did something to cause it... hm too bad
Here on 4.7.2 its also slow.
I had the same problem and factory reset: face unlock is back to being instant, and the finger print reader is noticeably faster. It is troublesome, however, that an OTA forced me to factory reset a 3 day old phone...
I have also reset after update but not solved.
I updated homescreen and lockscreen wallpaper with a custom one and experienced a slight drop on face unlock speed. Meaning that I was able to see the lockscreen for 1/10 of a second before the homescreen was there. I reverted the wallpaper choosing one of oneplus 's and face unlock speed was back to instant. Just a tip.
Works fine for me. I'm on FreedomOS based on Oxygen 4.7.2.

update Google photos

I'm on Android P and today I noticed an update for Google photos app. So I downloaded it and it turns out to have broke something. When u roll up or down the screen flickers now. I have since then went back before the update. Is it just mines or anyone else on P can comfirm.
same here.
3.19.0.194452507
Must be an Android P issue. I don't notice a flicker when scrolling. I even changed from days, months, etc.

Question Slower after Android 13/One UI 5 update. Anyone else?

It seems like the phone is ever-so-slightly-slower following the Android 13/One UI 5 update.
Splash screens of various apps consistently appear for a few split seconds longer than before. In fact, at least one app that used to launched instantly now shows a splash screen for a fraction of a second before launching.
Is this just my experience, or do others see the same thing as well?

Thank you.
But I'm trying to figure out if the small slowdown after Android 13 update is an anomaly or if most people experience it. Do you?
My phone came with Android 13/OneUI 5 preinstalled, but I later received an update with January security patch and I started facing issues after that update.
The scrolling works very bad, its like there are some ghost touches. When I scroll thru WhtasApp/Telegram chats, photos in gallary, webpages the scroll sometimes doesn't work, just like the screen didn't even register my touch. If I try to scroll fast, the scroll stops in between, just like a ghost touch or something.
I was also facing issue with fingerprint scanner when the phone screen is off for some time, but I got it resolved by removing existing finterprints. and registering new ones.
The scroll issue is a real bummer for me. I hope it get fixed with the next OneUI 5.1 update.
In Addition to what I listed above, I faced one more strange issue today. I received the January security patch AGAIN today. It's like before, the download size, update description, all is same.
The previous January security patch update I got was installed successfully, I could see it in the software section, I am not sure why I received same update again.

Can someone here please confirm if you are able to scroll faster? I mean, I have my old OnePlus 6 with me. If I do a simple test to scroll once in a telegram chat, OnePlus scroll backs to more number of chat messages compared to S21FE. The S21FE just scrolls to few lines.
Anyone observed same issue?

Yes. the scrolling on the S21 FE is much more stiff and "heavy" than my old J series Samsung phone. In addition, many screen taps aren't noticed by the phone, requiring me to tap again.
You should report it in the Samsung member app like I did. The more people who report these problems the bigger a chance that a patch will be issued.
