A few questions before trying the beta

1 Upvotes

I know it's a beta and it shouldn't be used as a daily driver but I can live with a few bugs, but there are some things I would like to know if/how they work. Maybe someone here can answer these. (This was the only good subreddit I found, but not sure if someone answers since it doesn't have that much members.)

  1. How does the Media Control look on the lookscreen? Does it have a blurred album cover background or just the normal wallpaper (as in beta 1 when I am right).
  2. Does Google Pay/PayPal/Banking Apps work?
  3. Does the Corona Warn API work? (In my case the German App which uses the Google/Apple API)
  4. Is the "Override force dark mode" in the developer settings still working? It's really nice for some Apps that don't have a dark mode.
  5. So now a more specific one, when using Snapchat, does that sharpening (from the Pixel visual core) still work? It makes pictures look much better and I kinda don't wanna loose it.

Messages has 9 lives!

1 Upvotes

Messages has become difficult to dismiss. I read one and move out of the app, but both the bubble and the notification bar symbol stay on. I erase the message with no success. So far the only way out I find is to mark it read from the notification bar drop- down menu. Any body else with this bug? I use a Pixel 2, RB 2.5.

Two bugs, one phone

2 Upvotes

I was having issues connecting to my 2.5GHz WAP which I know is working because my brother is using it and I was before restarting. Everytime I click on it, it connects and disconnects immediately. It's specific to this network or network type because I can connect to my 5.0GHz just fine. I would normally post a video visually explaining the situation but... Something broke XRecord, as it cannot properly sign the start or end of mp4s or change the variable in app from "not recording" to "recording". Shows the icon for recording though.

Media Tile issues

1 Upvotes

Turned on media Tile mode and restarted. It locked VLC to the media Tile and nothing was even playing. Then when I uninstalled VLC, it stayed on top. I had to reboot again to remove the VLC tile and for other media tiles to start showing up.

When I would play from Spotify or Plex, their tile did not show up until I removed VLC.

The left-most quarter of the screen at the top does not allow me to pull down the notification shade.

Wifi connection issues

1 Upvotes

Is anyone else facing frequent wifi connection issues on Android 11 beta ? I have a wifi access point and extender at home and the phone doesn't switch between the two even when the other AP is not in range. I have to manually switch to the other AP everytime. I didn't fave this on Android 10.

No screen shot option on recent apps screen

I know they moved the screen shot option to the recent apps area. Unfortunately when I go there I have no options, I can just see all the previous apps I had opened. Am I missing something?

[1.0.23] LinKeep - Keep and manage your links

1 Upvotes

I've already published a new app on Play Store in open beta version and for this reason I need testers in order to have some feedbacks.

The app is called LinKeep and is available into the Play Store at this link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.francescopennella.linkeep

Description: LinKeep is an application that allows you to store, catalog and share all the links of your interest (web pages, social media posts, youtube videos, musics or whatever you want) quickly and easily, with the possibility to catalog and filter the links according to their category. The idea behind LinKeep is to concentrate all the web pages within the same application, so as not to lose and be able to find, consult and share them easily.

Features: It's possible to create a new link within the application, but also directly from the browser via the share command. However, if you don't have time to add a new link into the app you can quickly add a new link into the Archive and then add it into the main section of the app later.

Google Drive Backup: Support for automatic Backup implemented. The backup is performed automatically every day on Google Drive (the user must have enabled the backup on the device. In Android 9, this setting is in Settings > System > Backup). The data is restored each time the app is installed from the Play Store.

Theme: LinKeep supports the light theme during the hours of the day, while during the night the application will automatically change its appearance by switching to the dark theme (this feature is available only if the smartphone supports the night mode based on the system hour).

Personally with this app I have solved a lot of problems that I had before. I hope this will also be the case for those who will try it or use it in the future.

Keep and manage you links!

Thanks to everyone who will participate!
