Re: Nokia Camera App
Don't expect ANYTHING from them... I repeat... ANYTHING...
HMD just fooled us by launching this phone as they knew, people will readily pay a premium price in the name of Nokia.
But slowly, they showed their TRUE MOTIVES... You can see, the phone is REMOVED from their website. They are not giving any feature update (last was the camera update in October 2018). When this update was release, in the what's new section, they wrote that new features will be added very soon.. You can see their commitment... 1+ year passed. No trace of anything. They fooled by falsely promising new features like face unlock in subsequent updates. And gave NOTHING.
The phone launched along with this, the 6 Series, is still available on online stores, and running successfully. But this, Nokia 7 Plus, has been dumped by HMD... They are bound to give security patches because of Android One, otherwise, they would have left it a long ago.
So bro... Only one line that suits us... KAT CHUKA HAI HAMARA...
No need to request them anything... They won't listen. And they don't even care to listen. We spent a hefty amount without realizing the evil motive, and we have to suffer now. No other option left with us.

Re: Look! My Nokia X7 is not secure. Last update security patch level just june. Why?
Yeah even I am willing to know what caused the support to completely end in China. Looks like they have had some serious conflicts with FIH Mobile, which resulted in end of all updates to the devices sold in China. You can consider having your phone flashed to the global ROM to continue with the Android One updates.
Nokia 6.1 plus update issue
Re: Android 10 on Nokia 8.1
Here are the issues I'm facing. I'm sure they're all software related, as I did not encounter them while using Android 9. I have categorized them by severity.
Loss of function
1. Touchscreen becomes non responsive randomly. This issue happens very often, around 20-30 times a day, at least. It's not a software freeze, because sliding on the fingerprint sensor while the touch is not responsive still works, and the notification shade comes down and up. This is possibly a driver issue. Measures I took for an attempted fix:
a) Tried the multitouch test from the service menu (successfully passed)
b) Tried running the graphics test from recovery mode (unable to run the test, just got an error while the phone said "Installing system update")
From the looks of it, it seems like a touch driver failure, since the phone eventually recovers in the following situations:
I) Lock the screen, and unlock again using fingerprint
II) Wait around 15-20 seconds whenever the touch screen stops responding
2. No audio on earpiece. This issue also happens frequently, about 2-3 times a day, and requires a reboot in order to recover. The call is connected, because when switching to the loud speaker, or using BT or wired headset does work.
3. Random lockout. 3-4 times a week I find myself having to reset the phone the hard way, by keeping the power button pressed around 15-20 seconds.
4. Battery life is reduced to about 50% of what I got with Android 9. Disabling adaptive battery does make things better, with battery life around 70% of what I got with Android 9.
Annoyance
1. Pressing the home sw button while in some apps does not go to the homescreen. Instead, the notification shade is expanded, and pressing the home button again still does not work. As a workaround, I noticed that when this happens, the phone regains functionality if instead of pressing the home button, I use the fingerprint sensor.
2. Application overview behaves weirdly. When I open the app overview, I see the apps, but half the time, swiping up on the app actually opens it instead of removing the app.
Again, NONE of these issues were happening on Android 9. I have reproduced these issues on the device under all circumstances, and by that I mean.
a) Phone running Android 9 -> update to Android 10 -> issues appeared
b) Phone running Android 10 -> Factory reset -> issues appeared
I am getting pretty tired to see my phone, who was running PERFECTLY under Android 9, being practically crippled by the Android 10. If I would have bought the phone with these issues on board, I would have returned it immediately. Unfortunately, it is past the return period, and I am left with a phone that annoys me more than it helps me.
So here are my questions:
1) Is Nokia aware of these issues, and how close are they to releasing a fix?
2) Can I roll back to Android Pie?

November Security Patch WITHOUT a new A10 build on Nokia 8.1
Was expecting more than a security patch..!! More like a new android 10 build with latest security patch. This update is received in India this morning.
Re: November Security Patch WITHOUT a new A10 build on Nokia 8.1
If you can't solve bugs in 3 months, what else can we expect from Nokia? Very disappointed.

Re: November Security Patch WITHOUT a new A10 build on Nokia 8.1
I think i made a very grave mistake to buy Nokia 8.1 still issues are not resolve and even after 3 months of 1st Android 10 build we are still on same page.
Re: Nokia 7 Plus Android 10 Update
While I'm excited for the Android 10 update, I'm deeply disappointed in HMD because i see even random brands launching 10 for their mid-range devices. Even Samsung M20 got the update today. And I'm still putting forward my "Android One" banner and do nothing about it.

Re: Should I Buy the Sirocco in 2019?
@madbilly your informations are not up to date, mate: I own it for a month now. 😉madbilly said:Hi @Evindzer, glad to hear you took the plunge and got a Sirocco, it's a lovely looking phone.
I don't use dual SIM units and camera isn't my priority, so these two things don't bother me. As for the screen cracking on itself, I hope I won't have to experience such thing. 😂
I'm very pleased with the device so far. 👍🏻
