January security patch is here. Discuss bugs. - Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Guides, News, & Discussion

Received the January security patch today. Haven't found any bugs yet.

There are no new bugs for me as well but the current one remain like the cache one. But my phone's performance has definitely improved a lot. It's finally quick now and I have not experienced any lags since 2 days.

Slow emmc, auto brightness won't go below 19%

Same here, except the fact that the flash stays on for the whole time when I switch to the front cam.

same here but i thought that's the normal behaviour

Unreliable data connection, after the latest update my phone has been dropping data connection constantly, especially when the screen is off. It could be my ISP, but it started right after the update, before it was working fine.

When will they fix the cpu the 4 core min freq is 1401 mhz it should be 633mhz. .need to restart the phone to fix it but after some time problem shows up again

When increasing or decreasing the volume sound, the window doesn't disappear automatically till I touch other part of the screen

Front flash not working
Emmc not fixed
Headphone volume not fixed
And some users facing bootloop after updating
So looks like the update is pretty good ?

@viniciusvm1 It wasn't working for me but clearing the data for camera app fixes the issue

Notifications suddenly going mute and doesn't work untill I restart the device. The ringer is not affected though. I have seen this bug right after attending a call, sometimes with bluetooth headset paired . ( Don't know if that's causing it, but everytime I encountered this was after a call.) It used to even happen earlier at times... Does anybody has a fix for this? Anybody esle experience this? Thanks in advance!

They have pulled the January update.

Do they really not test the update before releasing it?? This was very sloppy and unprofessional and I can't believe an Android One phone experienced something like this, since it's backed by "Google" and whatnot.
No wonder many of the bugs are still unfixed, this feels like the development team is probably made up of one or two developers who have 13 other projects in parallel.
Shame.

Even after releasing the 'January Update' at the end of the month, they had to stop the updates? Damn. Imo, they are focusing too much on MIUI and not on Android One.

ISSUES on [ROM][4.2.2]CodeFireX 27.02.13

Can't post on the Main [ROM][4.2.2]CodeFireX 27.02.13 Thread yet so I'll post here for now.
Issues foudn so far on the [ROM][4.2.2]CodeFireX 27.02.13:
Screen flickers when phone's locked / backlight is off[
Going to Clock >> Alarm, crashes the Clock app
Phone overheats during regular use during the day and drained battery really quickly (maybe related or maybe not)
Problems 1 and 3 are known issues, thanks for reporting the bugs. If you could pull a logcat of the second issue, it would be great. I was on CFX and didn't notice the alam bug.

I'm also using CFX currently and I can open Clock > Alarm Icon then add and use alarms. But I can't run alogcat or catlog. I don't know what to do about that. But this ROM is otherwise very stable. I don't have the overheating issue either.
Camera crashes the phone, while it ought to only crash the camera app. But my camera is probably broken d/t being a refurb phone.
flashed junk700's .58 kernel... no fix on screen flicker
Can someone please send me the link to .64 or .66 kernel that works with corefirex's mytouch 4g rom? Thanks!

Issues foudn so far on the [ROM][4.2.2]CodeFireX 27.02.13:
I cannot post either so far. I like this ROM - it's fast, responsive, The only major issue for me - it keeps rejecting my SD card, especially after starting camera, gallery, or 2EXT apps. Anyone else has the same problems?

One BIG problem I have is the cellphone signal drops after a missed call. I have to restart the phone to get it back. That is annoying because people can't reach me while the signal is out. Basically, this issue is the only one keeping me from using 4.2 ROMs as my daily driver.

Anybody else experiencing random reboots?

Got my 128 GB OP5 last night and it has been randomly rebooting on me while doing random things. I am trying to figure out a root cause and factory reset the phone again to see if I could figure it out as well but it seems to happen from doing anything as simple as pulling down the notification bar to activating Google assistant or just scrolling through my settings. Nothing seems to be repeatable as it happens intermittently. Wondering if anyone else has dealt with this and may have figured out what caused it otherwise I guess I'd have to order a replacement
No, works fine here.
i dont have OP5 yet so no reboots
No reboot until now but i can't pair any bluetooth device (Sony Smartwatch 3 and Jabra Motion Headset)
Mine hasn't done it yet but the wifi performance is abysmal, random pauses when transferring files, Facebook stopped while trying to set it up.
I have been using the phone since yesterday morning and haven't had any issues at all, not a single bit of lag, no apps crashing or anything. If a reset didn't help it that means it must be hardware problem. I would return it and get a replacement.
Yes, performance seems bad. Had a few reboots and WiFi download speeds are awful.

I've successfully paired a bluetooth keyboard with trackpad and a Wahoo Tickr HRM and both seem to work fine. The Wahoo seemed more difficult to connect but that may have been just operator error. I've not had any lock ups/reboots at all but haven't had the OP5 24 hours yet.

Quite the opposite for me as the WiFi is stellar and the 5Ghz speeds far outstrip the Nexus 5 this OP5 has replaced.
Haven't had any such issue on mine yet in Canada (8GB/128GB) *fingers crossed*

I've had the same as you -- Bluetooth Pebble & Car & Headphones have all worked amazing (including using AptX HD), and my WiFi speeds have been stellar (>50MBps download (Yes, MBps, not mbps)). My WiFi has not been cutting out in the corners of my house either, unlike my old phones and even laptop!

Yes, it's an issue for me. I've been in touch with OP Bug Hunter staff, and gave them the logs they requested to pass along to engineering to figure out why.
Yeah it kept rebooting on me even today so just got off the phone with OnePlus and an RMA has been created for a replacement device to be sent. Hopefully the next one isn't a problem, I'll keep you guys posted on the progress.
Umm had phone since Sunday not had any issues but today while on a call the phone rebooted it's self and again 20 minutes later just on home screen , I'm stock latest build , bought from O2 store should I take it back and ask for replacement while within my 14 days ??

Mines fine no issues build date 13th June
My phone is back with oneplus now so according to them should have a new one within the next week. Good thing I didn't sell my oneplus 3 just yet
I had two random reboots today and one random shutdown.
All these happened in my pocket and i realized the reboots due to vibration from reboot.
And one time I pulled it out of my pocket it was turned off.
Hi,
Got my phone Yesterday.
Started seeing random reboots today. Running latest version. I also did an factory reset of the device after I upgraded to latest version..
Any way I can troubleshoot this? Could an app be causing something like this? I do suspect that this started after installing Snapchat.. But I'm not sure..

I'm getting random reboots about every other day or so. Would this be indicative of a software issue versus hardware? I figure if this many people are having issues, but many are not, the hardware may not be a problem? This is my first OP device, so I'm just guessing. Hoping if it IS a software issue they can release an update soon!

Just got back from O2 store replaced with new device although it's the same manufacture date as one with issue 6/6/17 so far ok but it's only been on couple hrs so to soon to say, I'm convinced it was since 4.5.3 update as didn't do it before update but while i was in my 14 day return thought replace it anyway , I did contact 1+ before hand to ask if it's software or hardware all I got in reply was !! We will need proof of purchase to continue replacement procedure , that made alarm bells ring so hence straight back to O2 as it's far quicker than retuning to 1+ , I'm currently on 4.5.0 and not keen on updating ?

anyone else experiencing random shutdown issue

Hi there,
I have been experiencing random shutdown on my one plus 5. It happened twice in 15 mins when I was listening to Spotify on my headphones.
Not sure if it's to do with the latest update or not .
Just wondering if anyone experienced this. I have also post on the 1+ community , hoping it's just some software glitch. Overall, it's an impressive phone. Oneplus should sort out there glitches before shipping the product out tho.
Yeah software glitch maybe try resetting your phone ..haven't had random reboots on mine so every device is not having it...if you can ..then replace yours otherwise enjoy it... there's always custom Roms...btw have u updated all software updates yet

Probably a malfunctioning app, try a safe boot to see if it happens again or data factory reset.

Do you have the latest update?
Nope all good here.
Happened today to my phone. Weird. Didn't happen again. I guess is a software bug or an app not working well.
Update
It only happened when I was using Spotify when my headphones plugged in.
All good here as well. Hmm. Spotify? That's strange. Have you tried other apps? Like black player?

Hello, it happened to me this night, I was surprised when I woke up that my phone was on the pin-code screen. I didn't shut down my phone just put the plane mode. (4.5.5)
Happens to mine. Maybe 4-5 times since I got it. On 4.5.5.
Like, I will not use my phone, pull it out if my pocket and it'll be black, non responsive. I'm not completely sure if it's shut off already, or just non responsive, and need force shutdown.
Not much more to add than this :b
I have not experienced any random shutting down.
Any fix to that? I've had that happened to mine 7 times already since I got mine on June 26th. I've had the issue yesterday while sending a sticker on Facebook Messenger to a contact, and a couple of minutes before whilst playing Pokemon Go ... this is really borring. The last two times it happened, there was an update waiting to be installed (well, on the german servers at least, since I didn't have the update here in Belgium but once I used a proxy, I could download and install it), not this time tho.
I love the phone but my GF just told me to switch as if she has a problem or if I have a problem and can't use the phone, this would be really bad. I would prefere not to change, so if you guys have a solution, I'm all ears

That also happened to me more than twice. Not only in the night. Most time if the phone will be charged. I use only the dash charger. I didn't put it in plane mode. Strange problem. I have no idea why this happens. In this situation the alarm clock or anything else isn't working.

I don't understand why it's happening even in their 5 series. The 3 series has this stupid problem as well. Really frustrating. One Plus needs to get a grip and get rid of this glitch ASAP if they wish to remain in the game.

new pie update 47.2.A.8.24

new fix bugs?
What's changed, i don't know. Can someone explain?

hello, how about battery drain after the latest update? I just saw a video recommending to do not update to Pie, because many features of Oreo and Nougat are gone and functions are limited, and a battery life is reduced. the review was made few months ago, though. are there any major changes with following updates? do you recommend to update? thank you.
Hi, what do you all think of the new Pie update?
What happens if, for once, there is a system update notification, it is being ignored and nothing done?
My first smartphone being HTC, then switching to Samsung twice, i don't recall getting system update notifications every now & then from the mentioned brands.
yesterday I have updated to this version via OTA.
today I notice GPS does not work (tested with Maps and GPS test).
does anyone have experienced this issue?
Not going to update my XZ1 to Pie. It seems Google has disabled third party call recording apps such as ACR within Pie. This functionality is very important to me in my work. So unless I'm going to root my phone in order to get around this I can't use call recording app. This is a major to me and many many others.

I got four darker spots on camera - two are darker and two are barely noticeable. At first I thought it was a hardware issue (dirty lens or faulty sensor), but I found, that this happened to some of the different Xperia phone users before after a software update. Can anyone else confirm that?
Just updated. GPS and camera are fine and everything seems really quick. Or maybe that's because I just rebooted and I don't do that so often
I can't use my device anymore, it's laggy as hell and so bad, that no one wants to buy it for even 150€

Android 10 - RAM management issues?

I've updated to Android 10 recently and, while I enjoy the improvements to the performance, I have been far from impressed with the phone's RAM management. Sometimes, the phone would just randomly fail to launch any apps. I would just tap on any app I want to launch from the home screen or in the app drawer and the phone would just stall. Maybe after quite some time, the phone would initially launch the app but at crawling speed and fail to completely load it. The only way out is to tap the home or the recent apps button multiple times. Also, when opening the recent apps view, I don't actually find the app that failed to launch in the recent apps at all.
Is it only me or is this a known issue? Will formatting my phone do any help?
I am having a similar issue. It occurs randomly, and I have to reboot to fix it.
Same here.
The only way to recover for me is to reboot.
I am hoping the October release will have a fix.

Yes, hope we get those fixes also (though only mentions security ?). I also hope the sensor calibration fix might stop phone waking up when in the car and we hit even a smallish bump, it never used to happen on 9.

Damn! I thought it probably would not be fixed as I believe we only get they security updates fast each month. We'll have to wait & hope we get the fixes soon. I haven't even hand chance to update yet! Lol
Sitrep: updated successfully to the latest update (October security patch). 41 hours of uptime have just passed as I was writing this and so far, I only had a similar issue with Google Chrome (failed to load any pages) but as soon as I opened the App Info and cleared 2 gigs of cache it went back to normal. Didn't get that freezing issue anymore. Looks like it was fixed indeed. Awesome!
I'll still keep an eye on it.
To my shock, it appears that the October security update didn't fix this issue. It may have taken more uptime to occur but it is still there. I think at this point I'm better off switching back to Android Pie custom ROMs.
October version seems better to me. Not as good as Pie but the freeze is not permanent to a point where I have to reset to recover.
Now, when it freezes, it takes about 3-5 seconds to recovers.

Not playing games. No audio.
Just in the midst of switching between tasks or starting a new app.
Freeze is less frequent and when it happens, the OS recovers within a few seconds.

Did you clean flash?
I had similar issues when I dirty flashed from P to Q.
Although there are defo some Audio HAL issues on Q as mentioned in a previous post, noticeable when trying to play music through the dongle.
Sitrep: switched to AOSiP 10 (20191012 build), never had a single RAM management issue since. Not sure if it's because of clean flashing the ROM, switching to f2fs or whether it's the ROM that has some fixes. But, well I'm a happy man now
