Android Q public beta has launched

I would be very interested to hear how the stability of DP2 compares to the first release...

I agree with you. Hard for me to consider early beta releases due to having to use my P2XL for personal and work.

I have not found it to be any less stable than the first Beta. The only apps that still don't work on Q are:
Adblock Browser https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.adblockplus.browser
Files https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.apps.nbu.files
The Chase app didn't work for quite a while but they just released an update a couple of days ago that took care of the problem (even though it wasn't listed in the updates list).
I haven't noticed any slow downs, reboots or uncharacteristic behavior. The 'Discover' feature (swipe in from the left) didn't work for a couple of days but there was an update to the Google application that seems to have fixed the problem.

Anyone having problems with photos taken are not being saved in Google Photos? When I take a pic it shows in the corner that the picture is saved but when I tap on it it'll show briefly then go away to the main photos section of GP. When I look for the device folder in GP for the saved photos there are none there.

Ah ok cool. Thanks. Yeah I found my picture folders in the Files app so at least they're still there.

Thank you.

Beta 2 isn't rootable yet. Due to not copying the backup to ny PC, I spent about 8 hours getting beta 1 set back up. (It's still not where I want it, but it will do for now.) But I'd rather be a beta behind than unrooted.

If you allow Permissions to Photos and Videos for both Camera and Google Photos it fixes the issue.

Thanks.... I wonder why they got disabled

It probably has something to do with them reworking how the permissions work in Q.

Has anyone else experienced a problem with calls received only coming through on speakerphone and not allowing you to switch?

No sorry

 

[GSDer]

No, all of my calls come through in the expected manner (on the phone; on my car audio when connected via Bluetooth; etc).

 

[o4liberty]

Calls work fine but most apps unexpectedly close every now and then.

 

[Kizzy Catwoman]

I am having trouble with my photos on my new phone. My old one was ok.
