I just got the Android 11 update yesterday, & ever since, every time I try to open Minecraft it force closes. Sometimes it crashes immediately, other times it waits until I click on a map to play it but it does it consistently. This didn't start until after I got the update. Is this a bug with the Android 11 update or something else? I haven't had any problems otherwise.
Factory reset... you better start from the beginning
Updates tend to break things... especially Android 11/12.

Hold up a sec. Help me out here because you left me staring at the screen like a doge getting asked a question. Why would the Moto G Play (2021) which already has its planned major Android system upgrade rolling out to all, in any way considered an "old phone" that isn't compatible with A11? Or did I miss an edit by OP claiming he had an older phone?

When doing a firmware OTA upgrade a factory reset is best. An app reload may address some of the issues but not all.
Clear the system cache, at the least.
I don't upgrade or update the firmware once I have a fast, stable system that's fulfilling its mission. There's little to gain and a lot to lose.
With Android 9 and up, security is not an issue if the device is set up and used properly.
Upgrades break things and require considerable time/effort to find work arounds, to optimize and a factory reset is mandatory for best results.
A glitchy OS is no upgrade. A good, stable Android load can last for years, trouble free with minimal maintenance. This N10+'s load will be 2 yo this June, still running strong on Android 9.

My Lollipop 5.1 was hacked and keeps being hacked. Security software version MDF v1.1 release 5. Kernel 3.10.49. Build LMY47D.
I would like to stay on LP as it offers few features i like. Any developer know how to patch it or secure it. Any developers here that know any serious vulnerability in this release and if i can flash zip without upgrading to 6.0.
Does this 5.1 release have serious vulnerability or is my phone being hacked by "professionals" that there isn't a patch for that?
Can you describe a little more on the "hacking" situation like elaborate on what's going on.

Someone or some party has on few occasions taken over my phone. In one instances someone has put a password on one of the applications i use, 1) i didn't even know how to set that up at the time 2) Never had a reason to set one as no one has access to my phone 3) setting it by accident on my part would require at least 4 steps which is not possible without conscious effort in doing so. 5) No one in my household, phone pattern locked. In another instance memory buffer was over flooded with "packets" in order to overwhelm the memory and processor and my droid slowed down to crawl. Yet in another instance they started "painting over" google maps roads. Basically where roads were certain color they turned black as i was driving. This was not a software glitch or bug. The last point i can see where it appear as it was software glitch, however i do not believe to be the case and other 2 instances occurred also. I don't trust the security of this phone anymore and if any developer here knows of any "back door" that can be exploited on LP 5.1 and security patch maybe android did? Are there any zips from OTA can be be flashed in TWRP? I have LG G4.
I've been running it for the past few days, and its working well. Not ran into any issues with it.
I like that the timer within the clock lets you type in the same way that the google clock does, you can type 3000 to get a 30 min timer, before it only let you type in the minutes or seconds boxes individually.
AOD is a welcone addition, been waiting for it since it was announced, I've not noticed much of a difference to battery life, I can still get to the end of the day with about 40-50% remaining.
I like the android 11 feature where media players are now in the quick toggle area.
I did notice things looked a bit bigger, so I changed my DPI setting to 400 in developer settings and that seems better than before, its not quite the same sizing as on 10.
Looks like the small visual bug for the icons on recents is also fixed
What do people think of it?
to me with os11, it's laggier and less responsive in general. Don't like it very much, with os10 the device was much better. Did you do a clean flash or installed it over os10?

Same, laggier than the previous OS 10, i did a clean flash for the stable update, its a bit better than open beta 3 but honestly, not enough, i would like to think that they will improve the user experience in further updates, but i dont know, not too much confidence in OnePlus from my part.
can't confirm, for me the device is as fluid as always, didn'T factory reset or similar
I simply deactivated many many many bloat apps, that's all

I just used Oxygen updater to get the update quicker, and then just did the upgrade via the regular system update method.
I was considering doing a clean flash, as its jumping up an android version, but I was lazy
Which parts seem laggy to you? I havent really noticed any slow downs, I mainly just noticed that text seems bigger, so tweaking DPI seems to have done the trick.

people never say how many apps they have installed and how many are running in the background, but expect a mid range phone to be as excellent as a flagship

I just expect that an update that theoretically should improve the performance and general quality of my device doesn't produce the opposite effect. My installed apps are exactly the same I had in Os10 because I didn't do a clean flash since I installed it with oxygen updater.

Unfortunately not, usually Android upgrades (especially with the manufacturer made modifications to UI, system, etc) use up even more resources than in the previous version, so at some point our phones will not be able to handle a stock version of a future Android version. At least LOS etc will help getting us upgrades once OP Nord won't be supported anymore

I just think this happens because of lack of optimization rather than a lack of resources. I mean OP nord with its CPU and 8gb of ram should be perfectly capable of handling android 11 as fine as android 10. I'm not saying the device is useless now, just it's not responsive and fluid as it was with the previous version, and it's a pity
Just want more aod customization and god damn weather in aod and lockscreen.
Everything seems okay on android 11 update But why is the security patch still at January 2021? Updated to new os but still same security patch from android 10
For me the reboot after update did not work. The phone got stuck on the home screen. The next reboot just heated up the phone a lot. Now need to see how it performs during daily use.
the only thing that gets me is that it seems to disable auto-rotate screen on a daily basis
Haven't noticed any performance differences between 10 vs 11. I've never done any factory resets from new. Only debloated all apps i never use. Overall pleased with the Nord.
I just flashed the latest hotfix and must say the system got more snappy overall. Really like it
Within a few days of updating, around 1/3 of my apps would just force close upon opening them. The affected apps worked after reinstalling but as soon as i closed the app it went back to the same problem.
Ended up going back to LOS.
*Edit* Nope that was just Google breaking Webview.

I had same problem with Migrate apps from 10 to 11 beta. Reinstall fix the problem
Yesterday I got the Android 12 update for my Galaxy Tab S7.
I'm using the 'Good Lock' module 'Home Up' to customize a little here and there, and I noticed that I don't have the option to customize the folders anymore.
I'm using the latest 'Good Lock' for Android 12 (OneUI 4) and the latest 'Home Up' module. The "Folder" menu is simply not there anymore, but I've seen some reviews on OneUI 4 which still included this option.
Could anyone please verify that the option is definately gone on the Galaxy Tab S7 with Anroid 12?
Thanks!
You knew the upgrade was dangerous when you loaded it...
Samsung will likely correct with an update, eventually... if doable.
Rule #1 if an OS is fast, stable and fulfilling its mission, let it be!!!

Thanks for pointing out. Altough I wasn't aware that this update might be in any form 'dangerous', at least Samsung didn't warn me. I've been around since Android 2, so I guess I might take the risk.
Not updating is more dangerous in the end when you are starting to miss out relevant security updates.
But what I'd really like to know, and what was the reason for my post:
Is the "Folder" option in Home Up really gone for the Galaxy Tab, or is it just on my device?

If you don't do stupid things most times in real life all those security updates aren't needed. Just works out like that... a lot of hype and scare tactics are being used to herd the sheep.
I'm running on Pie on my N10+ which was last updated 2 years ago. The current OS load will be 2 yo in June, still fast, stable and clean with minimal maintenance.
I don't think it's your device. However after a major OS upgrade you should always do a factory reset.
At the very least clear the system cache.
That may fix it... unless it's a Samsung glitch which Samsung is known to do.
This happens all the time with Good lock.
I am having the same issue with the "Home Up" APP here. The Home Up App in Samsung Good Lock runs well on my Note 20 Ultra, with the option of "Pop-up folder" for me to switch it on or off.
However, for my tab s7, the folder option simply disappears! I really don't like the pop-up folders and I am looking for ways to change it back into the previous pattern of how the folders were opened up..
I have the same issue. It's not an Android 12 issue. The Good Lock apps have always lagged behind new OS updates. Samsung will probably fix it. It may take a while.
I use Microsoft Launcher though, so it isn't an issue for me.
As for the comments about OS updates being dangerous. That's a bunch of BS. This isn't 2012.

Lollipop did, on AT&T phones upgrades can intentionally trash them. Or if the update goes bad, corrupted, hard bricked. There are plenty of things to go wrong just like life... and they do.
As it is I will not go past Android 9 or 10 on my 2 N10+'s. No compelling reasons to and no desire to waste time finding work arounds for new bugs.
Android 12 looks like a bad Apple dream
Enjoy its cpu cycle wasting scoped storage... yeah it does that too.
Why is there always someone who hijacks a thread while contributing absolutely nothing to the intital thread?
Because they think they know more and really don't.
hi two nights ago when i found out that the beta program has changed and i'm not ever going to get a stable build i decided to unenroll my p6 from beta program. The issue is i got the update notification immediately like i always have in the past. Except this time the phone never rebooted when i went to apply the update. so after an hour of just letting it sit I tried to power it on and got the splash screen that usually comes up when you try to boot into recovery where you have to select recovery except there was no option for recovery. And even worse there was a message at the bottom of the screen that said there is no operating system installed on this device and gabe a website to go too. my heart jumped into my throat. But i regained composure and powered off the phone and started to prepare to use the android flash tool (unsure if that was even the right step to take) but then i looked at my phone and saw that the erase ring like when you factory reset was there. so i decided not to touch it and let it do its thing. So now my phone did factory reset which i am aware that when you unenroll that is what happens but it did not install the latest stable build. Weird right? So now I am still on s3b1.220218.004 Which if im not mistaken is the newest beata build which i was on before i started. My security update says march 2022 my play system update still says february 1 and when i go to the android beta website it says that my phone is unenrolled in the beta program!!!!
So does anyone know how i get back to the stable channel now? I am lost any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks for being an experienced Android tester.
Your post will help people that are not sure what to do incase things go sideways.
I am on stock and from what I have learned is if you install a newer android system. You can not go back. That is why I stayed away from beta testing. Unless things changed that I don't know about, your stuck.
The only thing as a stock user is to try downloading the full factory image and do a flash-all.

Thank you for the answer. I did read that too but I didn't think it would apply in this situation. Oh wait I forgot the p6 hasn't gotten the latest security update yet. So your right I would be going back to February. Well hopefully since I am no longer enrolled in the beta program I will not receive anymore beta builds and either when March stable is released I will get that. And if that's is considered going back then I will have to wait till April thank you for bringing this to light. Man I wish Google would have given more of a heads up. If I knew I would not have installed this latest beta and stayed on beta 3. But I thought I was getting 12L stable. If I stayed on beta 3 and then unenrolled I would not have had a problem.
I am glad this will help others as I have received so much help on xda. In fact I learned everything I know from xda I do not work with computers I am a cook and a shellfish farmer. I see you helping alot of people so thank you for that. Keep up the good work my friend.

One more question. I know it might sound silly but if I'm on the latest beta which is for the next feature drop if I understand correctly then shouldn't this at least have the code for 12L stable in it? Because I don't seem to have any of the latest feature drop stuff. Also oddly enough my wife has the pixel 5a and she is on stable channel and she has all that feature drop stuff plus she also has the newest version of Google's messages app. With the catagories at the top. Shouldn't I have that by now?
Sorry for the weird question.
The March beta build was released on Wednesday so the most likely case is that your phone has "automatic system updates" turned on (default) in developer settings & that the phone had probably already updated your OS in the background (overnight) before you unenrolled. Due to the pending reboot to finish installation of the QPR3 Beta 1 (a newer build than February), it is likely that whatever controls the unenrollment/system update noted that you are on a later build & only wrote the bit to wipe your device upon reboot rather than attempting to downgrade to Feb build, because an newer update was already pending installation.
If your bootloader is unlocked you should be able to flash February build with fastboot, if not you may be able to sideload the full February OTA in recovery mode, or re-enrolling and then unenrolling again should work to go back to a stable build. You absolutely can "downgrade" if coming from a beta, or just manually flashing. (Edit: or with Android recovery tool)
RE: your second question, QPR3 Beta 1 has none of the March builds feature drop stuff in it, yet, which is why you won't have the same features as your wife's 5A.

I'm running QPR3 Beta 1 and it seems like I have at least some of the feature drop stuff, including the new battery widget, Gboard custom stickers, and I believe the expanded stuff in At A Glance.
This build does include the March security update so I would think it would include the feature drop stuff as well.

I should have been a little more specific, sorry for confusion lol.
I got the AAG widget in Beta 3 through a update on the Play Store so I assume that everyone would get this widget even outside of 12L (12.1), and believe that the Gboard stuff is also pushed by a server side update for US English? So those definitely work for most, I think.
I am only going off my experience and things I've heard online from other people though - Snap at night, live translate (of the new languages) and recorders transcription of Italian/Spanish (+assistants quick phrases) don't work for me on the QPR Beta 1. I can't say if Captions in calls work on this build though as I think that's a US only drop.
Google actually dropped the "Feature Drop" part from the Beta page too, so 100% unsure of what the QPR builds will actually entail now.

Yeah, seems like the QPR Beta builds will be mostly updates to the QPRs rather than actually testing any feature drop stuff. Hopefully they'll mix in a bit of those though. I'm actually ok with that as the QPR Betas should include some non-security fixes, so that's at least something to stay ahead of the game a bit.

I don't think anyone's getting Play System updates very quickly at the moment - Google pushed February's update out over like 5/6 different parts, from what I can remember - mine only started showing "February 2022" when I manually updated a related system app on the 27th of Feb, so I'd expect March's Play System update to be pushed slowly over the month too.

No March updates available yet though.
Well hopefully today the stable channel will get it's March update. Then hopefully I will get the ota to move me to stable channel. If not then I am going to try the android flash tool to see if I can get back on stable releases.

So it looks like Google might have released the stable March build. I am at work and haven't had a chance to read anything yet but I just got an update for 451mb and it says it's for the latest stable release of android 12. I just.left my phone on the way it was and didn't re enroll in the beta program. It looks.like it finally caught up for me. It's going to wipe.mymphonenagain so I'll report back after I'm all setup.
Edit: so I just looked on Google website and I do not see the March build yet. I really hope that I'm not going back to February that would not make any sense. I thought you that you can't go backwards with the builds.
so i just went through the whole proccess and it did not put me on the latest stable build im still on the same one. I guess that they did not come out with the march stable update. But the weird thing is it did the same thing it did last time. when i finished the download and restarted my phone the boot menu came up with a message that said no vaild operating system. and i could not boot into recovery or do anything at all. i just let it sit and powered it off waited a minute and powered it back on and it gave the erasing ring. then rebooted. Is that normal now? it has never done that before the last two times
So... I was in the Google Beta program to receive beta 12L versions. I then went and manually flashed A13 Developer Preview 13 because the 12L beta's were at their end.
I recently decided to come back to stock, so I could start getting my "flash on" again because it's been far far too long since i've developed anything for us here...
So... I opted out of the Beta program on the android developer site, as per Google's requirements. From there I was expecting to receive an OTA update to come back to stock... this was the same day the April update hit... I never received the OTA update notice, and decided to manually flash the April update... which I did, and everything is running nicely... however... in my System Updates, the device wants me to "update" back to A13 DP 2.
Is there some way I can get rid of that, so my device thinks I am truly on stock, and not in the Beta program any more? Or is this simply just some screw up on Google's end, and I am s.o.l. until they decide to fix it? (yes, I mentioned it to them both in their own forums, as well as their redit)
Figures. I post this.. wait a little bit, check my phone. Update is gone, and phone is back to normal SMH
