Nougat OTA update Available 28/3/2017

[henrikhenrik]

Yeah feel annoyed as other than this functionality, everything else is either better or simply different. Oh well...

Other than that I'm happy with the update tho. Phone feels snappier overall

DPI change option are available in Developer options...??

No, you have to use ADB or be rooted, just search the Lenovo p2 forum for 'dpi ADB density'

the battery drain is faster than marshmallow in 6h i loose 14% usually i loose 6-7% ...

What usage? This can't be with the screen always turned on. I'll guess it's your typical usage through the day, answering emails, some calls, some browsing, sync on. Can someone else comment on the battery life after this Nougat update? If the battery is indeed worse I'll stay on MM, it suits me more than fine.

I tried with adb but after change dpi i cant crop image for whatsapp..??

Yeah, I noticed. I downloaded the "Night mode for Lenovo" app from the play store, but it's kind of lame to have to rely on an app for functionality that was baked in 6.0.1.

Too early to tell for sure. I think it may be a little worse. Full charge, followed by 35m SoT. 45m standby, so 1h20 up time... 100-96%. This suggests i could get approx 14h SoT and 18h standby. Brightness is high, been just using chrome and WhatsApp so far. Before update i was getting over 12h SoT, 2d+ total up time and would still have about 20% juice. So, not much in it before and after update. I would say, you get a bit more off the top, so just based on 4% use will be an over estimate.

Yep same here, but that won't change when using a different method

@helppme Thanks for the input. Around 12h SOT from full charge to 15-20% is also what I get on MM based on my usage which I explain as "above average" I'm a fan of these guys who get over 15h SOT, not possible for me.

Yes, it's available under the "smallest width" section in developer option... However, you need to put dp values instead of dpi.. To convert dpi to dp, you can use formula below:

dp = (480/dpi)*360

dpi is the intended dpi that you want to change to...

Thanks bro?

Now, 15% used. 4h26m up time. 56m calls. 1h49m screen time. This is on max brightness. It looks like 12.1h screen time,. 6h of calls and total up time of 29.5h. so actually gonna be very close to MM.

As for the people who get 15h. I could get that easy watching YouTube on 50% brightness doing not much else.

Glad i could help

Very nice, actually looks on par with MM. Please capture these statistics till you reach 15-20%.

I can't set live wallpapers after this update through themes. Can anyone confirm?

Yeah, the option seems to have gone from the top right of the theme centre. I now just have 'online' and no live paper option.

This is really surprising that they missed such a small thing as this is an aplication and not os.

Anyways I've installed google wallpapers to overcome this.

There was a nice options for hiding some notifications from lock screen, but it isn't there anymore :\

I had to flash my p2 back to marshmallow because play store said my phone was not certified, so i couldn't download or update apps.

My HTC M8 with 7.1.1 is not certified, also my new p2[emoji106]

Anyone can check if there is still this options?

With this option, you can block all notifications from your lock screen. You'll still see your notifications when your device is unlocked.

Open your device's Settings app Settings.
Tap Notifications and then Settings Settings.
Tap On the lock screen and then Don't show notifications at all.

can't find it

61% left. 4h24m SoT. 1d1h26m standby. 56m calls. 1d5h46m up time.

Suggests SOT with further comensurate calls and standby, would be about 11h20m. Obviously at this stage i have had lots of other smaller bits of battery use, messaging, Spotify etc. Also discovered my WiFi was clicked on unnecessary for about 6h today.

Definitely a little worse so far than mm, but I'm pretty sure will end up within 1h of Mm SoT performance..
