Hold down on circle icon on top off app in recents and you'll have an option for split screen

YEAH! thanks for that my heart almost stopped when I couldn't enter split window mode....
One other thing... is it somehow possible to close all running apps at once? I'm not that "let's close all apps every minute" guy, but once in a while I was doing it..

Any idea when will we get wind down, app timer and Android dashboard to use?

In the upcoming weeks they said. How many weeks they did not say.
you can find the timeline for developer previews here: https://www.androidheadlines.com/20...reviews-planned-final-release-in-q3-2018.html So hopefully by next update.

No close all recents button

Just swipe up one by one and they are gone. I've been using the first Beta for a while and now this one and the occasional 'API compatibility detection' message that goes away in seconds seems to be the only abnormal thing if any, pretty snappy and stable enough to be used as daily. IMHO all of the changes are kinda of cool adding a clean and easy interface. Change is inevitable the only constant is death and taxes !

I'm actually glad there's some big changes. Feels like a new era when bits and pieces from the lollipop age is getting replaced. Yes it might be hard to adjust in the beginning but it's great to see that there's new stuff going on. I'm sure custom roms will bring back stuff we are accustomed to but the direction it's heading I like. Feels like something new. Will flash DP2 as soon as I get back home from work. Can't wait haha.

I have the DP2 on my Pixel and the nav buttons are still the same as DP 1 and Oreo. Am I missing something?

Does anyone know if the "tweak" to get WiFi Calling to be Preferred now works in this build, as it was broke in Preview 1.

Can someone upload the OTA File please?
Edit:
Here you can download the Image of Android P DP2

It works perfectly

I've tried 3 times to get Magisk 16.4 to work. Every time i get bootloops. Flashed twrp img then magisk, fail. Flashed twrp img then twrp then reboot then magisk fail. Wiped all data clean install flashed twrp then magisk failed. Running stock dp2 now, which i love, but currently no root.

App action and smart select from recent menu.
Are these two features available in current beta.
I am not able to find them in my phone.

ExistenZ Marshmallow problems and solutions

Our beloved developer @niaboc79 is getting very tired of people always asking the same questions and posting their problems in the development topic of his rom.
So I decided to make this topic in the "general" section of the forum where people can post about their problems and hopefully some solutions, in the hopes that it will help him and the people having problems at the same time.
Whenever a cause or a solution for a problem is found, I will put it in the second post, right underneath this one.
I want to make clear that I'm not an expert and cannot help much myself, I will just collect and centralize information, and I'm in no way affiliated with @niaboc79 and his work, and do absolutely not deserve any credits for his work.
Also there is no guarantee that the information I collect and post in the second post will be a solution for your problem even if it has apparently worked for other people with similar symptoms.
I invite everyone that uses his rom to share helpful information here. (please)
Firstly ; a copy of the FAQ that @niaboc79 posted himself. You should read it before asking questions.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How to flash the DRM fix and avoid loosing of recovery
A:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=67111204&postcount=1169
Q: Hey, that thing doesn't work!
A: Check if there isn't an (*) at the right of setting description, that means that you must restart SystemUI.
If it is not the case, try to enable/disable option a few time and reboot or read thread to find an answer.
Q: Why is there greyed options in eXistenZ settings!
A: These otions aren't available yet.
Q: Weather isn't working on lockscreen or in expanded status bar...
A: Go in settings/eXistenZ/Notification Panel/Weather Settings;
Press on Weather panel icon, then on Display weather switch;
Select OpenWeatherMap as Weather source;
Use Custom Location;
Set your Location

Recovery access problems:
-Don't update busybox
-Don't update Kernel
-Don't flash DRM fix (see FAQ)
If you haven't done one of the above, you should be able to enter recovery by pressing volume down (repeatedly) while starting up the phone.
If you did do one of the above, simply reflash the rom.
Note: since version 4.7 (or alternatively version 3.9) lag is no longer appearing in the rom. If you do witness lag on 4.7 (3.9) there is probably something that you have done that is causing it. Check and double check your apps and settings before trying other solutions in that case!
Lag problems:
-Update to rom version 4.7 (or 3.9 for the rom based on the beta firmware)
-Follow the instructions posted here on rom version prior to 4.7 (3.9)
If you still witness lag after that:
-After installing, give the rom some time to settle, it has to index all your files and the memory management still has to find out what apps (you) are running. This takes a long time (depending on your usage) so give it some days.
-Some xposed modules and Greenify are known causes. Disable that if you use them and see if the lag still persists. If it is gone, you can find the exact module/setting that is the cause by disabling just one module/setting at a time and try if the lag has gone. (this also counts for other problems by the way)
-Stamina mode makes the phone slower as it lowers processor speed etc. Turn it off and check if the lag has gone.
-Many (also popular) apps use quite a lot of system ressources even if you aren't using them. You could uninstall your apps, then reinstall them one at a time, use the phone a bit to check if the lag came back, if not install the next app, and so on until you find the app that is making your phone lag/behave weird.
-Never restore a titanium backup (or similar) when coming from a lollipop rom. There are several differences between lollipop and marshmallow so you risk to restore incompatible stuff.
-Activating blur in recents causes lag (v 3.5, should be solved with the next update of the rom) Fixed in final version
Profile picture (top right of status bar) won't remain after reboot:
-Open the contacts app and go to the first contact (that should contain info about you, and no image) and choose the picture you would like to see in stead of the blue user icon (click on the pencil and then on the image)
Now the image for the user switch in the status bar has been changed too, and it will stick after reboot.
Switch user causes a crash of the beta feedback app and doesn't work
-Remove beta feedback app
You can now switch users, although the system will crash/reboot, it does switch. (will be fixed in a future release of the rom) Fixed in final version

i did try to reflash the rom after upgrading busybox, but i just cant find a way to flash zip file through pc.
is there a way to flash the rom without flashing back to stock?
Maybe this will work
But if you have problems, there is nothing better than starting from scratch and do a clean install imo

By just looking at that image, not really.
I see that you haven't used your phone much during the time of the picture, so no apps are using battery, nor your screen. That automatically makes the operating system the most consuming thing, as it is needed to keep the phone running.

Click on the app to see what is consuming (radio, processing.... ) if it is the radio, maybe you had very bad connection. If it's the process that prevents the processor going to sleep you should try to find out what is running all the time.

Android O Developer Preview Released

Google just released the first Android O Developer Preview! For real, though, it’s here!
Android O will introduce new features by way of background limits on apps (think battery life boost), notification channels (more control over notifications), picture-in-picture, adaptive icons, autofill in apps, and more. Full details on what’s new can be found here.
The new version of Android will run through four preview versions, with preview 2 hitting in mid-May, preview 3 in mid-June, preview 4 likely some time in August, and then the final release in Q3. It’s a similar schedule to last year’s Android N preview program.
The first Android O Developer Preview is available for the Pixel, Pixel XL, Pixel C, Nexus 5X, Nexus 6P, and Nexus Player.
You can download the Preview 1 images right here. Instructions on how to flash a factory image can be found here. Android O is now a part of the Android Beta at this time because it’s a hella-early developer build that probably isn’t all that stable.

Ive been running it since it was released and havent had any problems so i would say it stable
Flashed my pixel c, very stable until my touch screen went bad...
Coincidence , absolutely not, flashed 7.1.1 and still had the touchscreen issues. Screen goes black every time i touch the screen with my palm or more than 4 fingers on the screen at the same time.
Google has sent me a replacement device Will test again with the new device.
I'm running O-preview since release, for me it is NOT 100% stable, but is doing a decent job.
What does this mean? -> ~ 1-2 reboots a day and spotted a graphics glitch (only 1x).
Not much trouble here, but I use mine as a test device so really haven't put it through its paces. If I were actually using it to do work/play I'd stay on Nougat unless there were a specific O-feature I required.
Desperate for root access, need to get apps tested with O+root, and would prefer not to buy yet another device (5x/6p) to do it.
i wonder if chainfires O dev test superSU includes the pixel C as included devices?
is there now an hdmi out support added via usb-c?
Anyone with a mouse tried to use the built-in file manager? On all 7.x versions the mouse cursor only selects (as if long clicked) files & folders, it cannot open them. Quite annoying, believe it or not...

thanks for the info.
one thing i've noticed is it seems that my O preview is rebooting at times. i can tell because when i pick it up i see the android beta program notice that seems to tacked onto the O boot. i've read that google has said it isn't in the beta program yet so not sure why i get that notice. the reboot issue is the first time for me that the device has exhibited spontaneous reboots but i guess it could be any number of things from apps that are not tuned to O yet to something in O preview itself. otherwise , it is running well with the apps i've used to this point running well.
edit: i have noticed since i posted the above message that trying to uninstall apps that had been installed while using android N causes a lock-up and never finish properly however the apps are no longer listed as being installed. i'm curious if anyone else experiences this behavior.

Yea the app worked fine but the the tap & pay part didn't (for me anyway). I don't use it often, but it has come in useful when I've forgotten my wallet.
I wanna flash this so bad, but it's a huge pain to roll back when I get the inevitable root/ROM itch. Is it daily driver worthy or a marked improvement from DP2?

I just made a purchase at woolies using CBA Tap n Pay.
After the OTA from N > OPP3, I did however need to clear app data form the commbank app as Tap n Pay was just giving me a rotating circle of nothingness. Once i set up the app again (the on-boarding screens are so annoying) it worked fine.
Also, I did a reboot after the first boot into O as lots of crash messages while the 'Android system finalising' notification was doing it's thing. All good now.

Since there's never going to be a rollback OTA for Verizon users with locked bootloader, finally glad to see an update.
Edit: Nevermind, finally got the rollback OTA.
If you really want/need to edit your nav bar, (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=xyz.paphonb.systemuituner&hl=en) this app still works on DP3, all you need to do is give it access to system ui tuner perms by following the steps in the app using adb shell.

Anyone know if OnePlus gestures works okay on Q?

Click to expand...

It's working for me, but it appears to need more forceful gestures than previously. But this might be because I fitted a new screen protector yesterday!
In reading the twitter feed by Magisk dev John Wu, it may come sooner than expected, his last couple of tweets made it seem like he had narrowed the problem down a bit. Also, another user hinted at a possibility of getting it working via an alternate method, but I haven't seen anything else.
But since this thread is about Q, let me say this:
1) I already had dark mode on in Pie.
2) I had root via Magisk, but completely uninstalled it (without locking the bootloader though), so no FDR needed.
3) First attempt at taking the OTA left me in a weird partial (stock) recovery where it said that the OTA could not be applied (I'm paraphrasing), and had the options to try again or FDR. I hit try again and it rebooted back to the same place - I hit try again a second time and et voila! it rebooted to Android and I have Q now on my Taimen. No idea why that happened, and I haven't performed any checks to see if it maybe flipped to the other slot or something (which I highly doubt, as it was extremely quick from when I pressed the try again to when it rebooted and started booting Android Q).
So, first thoughts:
The Google Feed now has a bit of translucency - pretty cool!
Settings is now dark mode
Notifications are also dark, double yay!
Night light is working better - the blue accents in settings, etc now also dull, the way they should.
Redesigned Files app - looks nice! Those items at the top are selectable, individually or in groups.

Any tweak to use full screen for any apps on OnePlus 8 Pro

Hi all! Does anybody know some tweak ui app to force full screen for all apps? Unable to use the whole screen is very annoying. I've turned off status bar due to screen burning after two months, but the upper line is always empty in portrait or landscape mode.
Thanks in advance!
And peace to all.

I am researching on this. On A10 you can use the magisk module "none display cutout". After install, in dev settings you have an option to completely ignore the holepunch area and swithching to fullscreen with gmd gestures lite will have truly fullscreen and no icons to burn in. Sadly this is not working on a11. Module will flash, holepunch will be ignored. But fullscreen mode will just turn off holepunch area
Thank you very much!
But I would prefer to not install twrp and not to flash magisk as well due to some reasons.
Just hope if exists some tweak app with adb granted permissions, like those for immerse mode.
Yes, thx,a solution would really be nice. I have been wondering about this.

DO NOT SELECT DOUBLE CUT OUT
DO NOT USE ON BETA

I think you're going to struggle without root, you'd need to change some files in system, without root I don't think you can.
Have you checked on the display cut out in developer options?
Haven't used it but may offer every you want?
Check out the other OnePlus forums, they're longer established and may have mods which can be adjusted for this OS, or possibly it may even work as is..
Hope this helps.

Do not chose double cutout. Instant bootloop with no chance of recovery. Don't say i didn't warned you

Really? I didn't get any of that, tbh though I don't think I actually clicked that one.
Find it hard to believe that OnePlus would leave that in.
Would assume that safe mode would still work.
Are you on stable or beta?

Stable. Mine instantly died after selecting double lol. I was very pissed off but i had a quick backup so didn't took much time messing with it. Ob3 users reported to me in a testing group that innbeta this doesn't happen

Maybe it's an ob3 issue? Apologies mate, I had no idea.
Updated my original post to avoid it
You can use the adb command to remove magisk modules in case of bootloop caused by this, happened to me on my 8T. Still looking for a working notch killer for a11

could you post this exact command sir? this is one of the biggest things on paranoid about, they're not being a good version of TWRP for 11
There's definitely a lot of dead space up at top reserved for the humongous status bar icons, a good 0.5".
Should have made them smaller and further up the screen. Like others mentioned this task will be probably zero achievable without root etc.

adb wait-for-device shell magisk --remove-modules
You need to turn your device on after typing that in adb
