Don't particularly like the new style of notifications on the lock screen. They seem a bit big and clown like.

god's toy

Anyone else have an annoying android system notification? Mine constantly tells me AntiVirus is running in the background and I can't dismiss it. It goes off when I open the antivirus app but comes back again.

Any reason why you've anti virus installed?

I see they've allowed you to now set a custom/local ringtone for your notifications as well as the usual SMS ringtone.

Have a parallel version of WhatsApp running now. Have uninstalled parallel space now.

Lost all Bluetooth functionally, connects for seconds then drops off. Disaster.

Anyone care to advise how to roll back to 7.0?

dahat

Is anyone running Open Beta 27 on OP3? Has Bluetooth improved?

I had to roll back to 7.1.1 as bluetooth was awful on the update posted above.

Another bug since the update - every once in a while Google will start automatically reading items I have saved in the Pocket app. Haven't quite worked out if something in particular is triggering it.

Long-press on the notification => All Categories => Apps running in Background => Importance => Low. You'll only see it at the bottom of your notification list then, no icon, and removed from the lock-screen

So is 8.0 the last major update we'll be getting for the 3/3T?

Most likely this will be (Officially) the last major update.

Marshmallow>Nougat>Oreo isn't bad going considering the OP2 didn't even get Nougat update.

Anyone else having trouble getting Google Assistant on the Oreo update?
I have my language settings set to US as I did on 7.1 but it's not prompting me to use Assistant for some reason.

Edit:
Nevermind, I think it was just the Google App itself, I uninstalled the updates for the Google App then opened the app and went to settings and the settings for assistant showed up, once I set it up I re-installed the updates and it was back to normal.

Hope this is useful for anyone who might have the same issue.

couple of days from now, you can always download a vpn and set it to canada if u want the update now but then again don't rush on updating.

So far loads of people who updated isn't happy. Wait out for a bit before updating

Just updated now, hopefully it won't be too bad.

Edit: battery is gone to the dogs.

Did the update this morning.

Charged phone from 30% went back later it was 100% charged. Noticed the phone was warm.

Never had that ever before???

I went back to Nougat but it involved a full wipe of the phone.

Battery actually better on my 3 since the update.

AFAIK You can if your rooted but it's very awkward to do, that's from what I remember from doing it with a different phone & version of Android.

I know it's annoying to do but if you factory reset the phone "sometimes" it fixes the battery drain issue, if you do decide to reset then my advice would don't backup from your previous setup as there could be some setting causing the drain, better to start from scratch with a new major update.

HTH.

I'm on the 3 myself and it seems to have gotten better when it's on standby but when I'm using the phone it's going down fairly quickly.
On Nougat I use to get a day and a half - 2 days out of a full charge with moderate to heavy use but on Oreo I'm just getting 1 full day with the same usage.
