General I have an X90 Pro+ in the UK - AMA

Would debloating be the cause of not getting the update?! Still nothing here...

I finally received the update this morning.

I finally received the update this morning.

Me too... But still all my incoming phone calls show 'unknown number'..

Already sent an email to vivo support. Also the sim card was not found after the reboot. I had to eject and re-insert the sim tray. After that the sim-card is found.

Is everyone facing this "unknown number" issue ? That's quite irritating if that's the case. Is it because some essential app has been removed?

As far as I know I'm the only one.. and yes it is super annoying. It also happened directly after a factory reset, and I assume a factory reset will enable all factory apps with their factory settings again... Sim-card works fine in another phone.. So it should be the phone/software itself I guess

That's a very weird bug. I never had that bug to begin with. Does the same thing happen even when a saved contact rings you? Or only for unsaved numbers ?

Both... If an unsaved number calls, you should see a number, but I only see 'Unknown Number'. If I disable VOLTE (by manually selecting gsm/edge mode via *#*#4634#*#*) the incoming call DOES show a number. But then I'm using edge (which is very very slow). So if I want to use my mobile data connection, I need to switch back to 4g. Very annoying.. I read a lot of topics from xiaomi users who have the same issue. Incoming 'unknown number' calls if VOLTE is enabled, which is solved by disabling VOLTE. Unfortunately on my phone the option to disable VOLTE is missing from the simcard settings menu. So now I disable it by forcing the phone to use the edge/2g data connection...

Try going into the service menu, there is somewhere a long list of network types you can enable or disable

 

[Vinzie]

Update: I followed these instructions to disable VOLTE and VOWIFI without needing to switch to GPRS/EDGE mobile data (if anyone need to disable VOLTE/VOWIFI and has no access to the settings in de default menu)...

How do I get the this service menu ? I already tried so many menu's ^_^

 

[extremecarver]

I'm not sure which one it was, something similar to 5568 but just try all from hard reset . info

For now I was able to disable VOLTE and now I get phonenumbers/names on incoming calls with 4G enabled...
Hopefully this is fixed in an upcoming release (that is what Vivo support said when I mailed them about my issue also being present on 18.3)...

 

[extremecarver]

Geekbench 6 score. Will be interesting to see because it will take some time for manufacturers to add it to it's optimized benchmark lists...
I don't know about other phones except s22u which scored like 1130/3700 while apple ipad 2022 is killing it with 2400/9000.

Found multi core score for s23U, 51xx. So very similar (the X3 core usually isn't used for multi core stuff on 8gen2 as it consumes too much power).

Does anyone know how to close all running apps at background with one swipe, I had Huawei before and when I press home button all running apps were visible, is anything similar in Vivo x90 pro plus?

 

[Haskren]

Under system navigation, just select the 3-button option:

At first reach extremecarver's level of madness . Then we will talk .

you are truly dumb, if you care so little about the details in a $1000 phone why don't YOU go and buy a midranger for 300 instead of bothering someone that is offering valuable criticism? Imagine paying this much only to use it like you would with a Redmi.

x90 pro plus its the best phone i ever had . And i had many flagships . End of story .

That‘s at some point not VALUABLE criticism, but we get your point.

This phone is (obviously) made for the china market, so why should we „foreigners“ critize something?
It‘s like going on holiday to Egypt and saying „damn it‘s too hot here, cant they change the climate?? I paid so much!!“
You probably made your research before buying, take it or leave it.

I love OriginOS personally, and some of the issues don't arise from the device being chinese. for example the standby is indeed bad as @extremecarver said looking at gsmarena's review of the regular x90 pro. 94h of endurance rating is worse than the small s23 with 3900mAh, guys. you have no issues with that, which is a bit questionable considering how much you paid for the device. this is super below average for a 2023 flagship.
and the dimensity 9200 is just as power efficient as the sd8gen2, that value would most likely apply to the pro+ too.

Also, all his comments seem like he just wants to find fixes to the issues that arise with the device, he's not crying like a kid and you guys just bother him for no reason at all. Are you getting offended because he's criticizing your beloved phone or what..?


If you don't notice those small issues he has because you don't use your phone that heavily and you don't care just ignore him and let him do his thing, this is supposed to be a forum for powerusers, which find issues and fix them. That, or his unit is faulty AF

If you use gesture navigation then just swipe and hold from the bottom of the screen then it will show recent apps menu for you. Click X to close all.

Where did you guys buy your phones? Some of us have never once got an update. We are on November or December security patch...
