Re: Android 12 Beta 3 What to Expect

Then you can pay my bills.

What bills? A good tent near a creek and a small garden is all you need.

Something said on the old thread about the icon theming in dark mode, I first enabled it in dark mode. So it does work in dark mode. But I have shifted to light mode currently as it looks better.

Agreed.

Well the bug I have if I'm playing music and I open maps, the music goes down to 50%, is still in Beta 3.

After Beta 3 I received several unanswered phone calls and voicemails. Those showed up in Notifications shade and bar as it should. I deleted the calls and VMs, yet the notifications didn't go away nor could be swiped away.
The only way to get rid of those persistent notifications was to reboot my phone.
If it happens again I'll submit a bug report.

Screen scrolling up and down appears a bit jerky.

As mentioned in the other thread by someone, I'm also not getting any notifications showing on my lock screen.

That's been that way for me from the beginning of this 12 beta

Downloading Beta 3 now. Will see how it goes and if any of my bug reports have been addressed.

Not sure if it's because I'm using Nova, but compared to beta 2, there's a significant delay when unlocking my phone and the icons showing up on my home screen.

Nothing serious I can see here. Pretty stable and problem free from my Pixel 4a and the apps I use.

No option to change font and icon shape anymore. it's a retrograde.

Just watched a brilliant video with all the changes in beta 3 and how they work. I learned a ton from watching it.

You beat me to it. Emad is my go to reviewer for new features updates.

Capture More Screenshots is a great new feature. To use it open a app(except Chrome) and take a screenshot using the power button and the down volume button. There will a "Capture More" button on the bottom left. However that button won't show up using any other screenshot taking method other than the power/down volume button activation.
I'm surprised at that inconsistency. I mainly use Assistant or corner swipe up for taking screenshots so I don't know why the Capture More feature isn't available using those methods.
For more info on this feature go to 10:03 in the video Kizzy posted above.

It works with the tap on back of the phone gesture as well on my 4a 5G.

My phone is much less jittery with Beta 3, especially app drawer scrolling. It's still there a little, but much less noticeable. The jittery scrolling was terrible in Beta 2, at least for me.

That Back Tap isn't available in the 4a.
