My A7 still at android 8.0
Haven’t update to 9.0 yet although I got the prompt to update

just updated, took quite long~

regretted update, can feel the UI is slower, even the pattern unlock is not as smooth as before

used to have full bar reception for TPG and redone in my home, now only 3 bars for TPG and 1 bar for redone, I wonder is it more accurate measurement by PIE?

Thanks for the info. I should go and inform my dad ask him not to update the SW.

Looks like there're some mixed reactions about the Android Pie update. Guess I'll continue to hold it off first and hope for the bug fixes.

The only irritating thing now is the update icon that keeps appearing at the notification bar lol

Can the latest update enable TPG Volte? Read that S10e latest update can enable TPG Volte although the phone model not in supposed list in TPG website.

I am also waiting for an answer.
Does anyone manage to use A7 for VoLTE calls with TPG SIM card?

To be honest I'm just worried about battery life. Is it greatly affected after the update? Need to close/shut down/uninstall anything to reduce effect on battery?

So far the battery is OK for me after I did the update.
