Android 10 for Nokia 9 PureView: Now in India

That's indeed a great news all together.

I hope the developers have done a thorough work on the update up till the minutest details. Having faced a relatively bad update experience for Nokia 7 Plus, I still have fear at some corner of my mind about upgrading my Nokia 9 PureView to Android 10.

I hope all those issues that I faced on my Nokia 7 Plus, be it bad audio, no ambient display, resetting of various settings upon restart, data connection bug, incompatibility of GCam, or any other bug out of those 100s of them reported by many users, are not present in the Android 10 update of the FLAGSHIP DEVICE OF HMD GLOBAL.

Also, I expect that the developers have done work on improving the Camera Performance and enhancing the capabilities of the Pro Mode by adding some really required features.

Hope this update is as polished and perfect (near to perfect as of now) as a diamond. I'll be waiting for fellow users to comment upon their experience with the new update before making any decision to update my device (the mistake that I did with my Nokia 7 Plus, for which I still regret).

Thank you HMD for again maintaining the promise.

Dear All,

Update as of 03:30 AM (IST) on Thursday, 30th April 2020

Received Android 10 update (V 5.13D) on my Nokia 9 PV (TA-1087) - Dual SIM India Model - when I was connected through Wifi & manually checked for update.

It comes with April 2020 Google Security Patch.

It weighs around 839 MB.

Installation (...plus optimizing apps) takes around 25 minutes.

Will keep you all posted about the performance / feedback!.

Thank you @Nokia 9 @Nokia 9 pureview @dipankar paul

What about Android 10 on Nokia 3.1 plus in India ??

Hi all,

This is nice news. I hope that @praveenp's dreams come true with this update!

One thing... or three things actually: I've got focus mode, family link and smart replies on my Nokia 8 with Android 9 I think because they are delivered as updates via the store, so the only features exclusive to Android 10 are new gesture navigation (still not as good as the N9 😉) and better, more granular privacy controls, which have been in LineageOS since it was called CyanogenMod. So what innovation does Android 10 actually bring?

Don't reply here, stay on topic with the Nokia 9 PureView 😃

Cheers 🙂

@praveenp What's the Camera App version on Android Pie? I forgot to note it down and now I am on Android 10. 😅

It's 91.9.1170.33 (1 Feb 2020 patch)

@madbilly Do you have smart replies really on Nokia 8? And you're able to do the actions via the notifications area? I don't see on any of my phones running on Android 9. So.. Somethinh is confusing. Which app are you talking about that supports it?

Finger print scanner won't improve with software updates. This is a 1st gen scanner and the performance will remain the same.

When do you correct the problem with the audio left by Android 10 in the Nokia 7.1? Thanks and don't forget the solutions.

Hello. Can anyone who has updated to Android 10 on 9PV in India tell whether it is having the same bugs/ issues as the Android 10 on Nokia 7 Plus?

Bugs/ issues like cracking sound, no ambient display, icon shape reverting to default circle after restart, color scheme reverting to default after restart, mobile data issues, lags in UI, glitches in display, screen freeze...

Please tell. Though I'm not at all planning to upgrade to Android 10 in near future (as my Nokia 7 Plus has already become a beautiful black brick with copper accents now), but just need to know in case it becomes necessary to upgrade as the future patches won't be available until I upgrade.

Thanks.

Most things that do not affect the day to day usage work on Nokia 9 PureView. The glance screen works but there are ghost icons of previous notification that is cleared. COD Mobile goes blank after around 4-4.5 games. No issuws with mobile data or wifi. No sound issues. Sometimes if I try to switch to an app from the recents it takes me to that app after a few seconds (2-3 seconds). Brightness slider doesn't work on lockscreen. And camera app is unchanged. But I feel I was more happy on Pie (Not sure why. I haven't faced any lagging issues with the camera app but I have a slight doubt on the performance in 2X and 5X zoom where I feel the images are looking a bit more overshapened).

I'm still skeptical about updating my device... But I'm continuously getting prompts to download the update, which I'm certainly not going to do... Is there any way to block those messages?

I don't want to give up on my phone, at least till the lockdown ends so that in case if it becomes intolerable (which I know it will), I can visit the service center for any solution.

Same thought when I first saw this feature. The only people to whom this will mostly suit are - bosses replying to their employees.

Employee: "Sir, I've finished the report and it must be in your email now."

Boss: (Chooses from OK, Ok thanks, Thank you)

Also boss: Yay! I saved my time and effort while responding to my subordinate. This is such a nice feature. Hail Google 😍

I'm super sure that if we start using these in general personal conversation, then it will do a lot of damage to relationships. So, I turned them off the moment I saw them and I save space in my notifications area and ensure that I send thoughtful replied. I also wrote a short guide for those who aren't sure where to disable it. I'm really thankful to Google that they gave us the toggle to disable these smart replies 😁

Now, only if they gave us the ability to do the same with the search bar on the homescreen. So, eventually started using the power of root to get the OnePlus launcher to work along with the gesture navigation. I'm happy! (Only if they allowed bootloader unlock to make it easy for others too... Same old rant. To be continued...)

To others: Sorry for diverting the topic. Not my first time, but I'm trying to do this less often.

Thanks. But this didn't did anything. Still getting the prompts to update.😑
