        Nikola19, 24 May 2019Did anyone get a May security update?A security patch dated 1st May arrived on 22nd May - unusually quickly based on past behaviour (did something need to be fixed urgently?). I'm in UK but the phone is a dual SIM Polish version.

                The DIY solving is to un-install all your apps and re-install them back.

                        Well, heat issue is not only on this phone. Even the flagship ones, any brands, have the same issue when charging. The only thing to do is to turn off the phone when charging....and as long as the heat is acceptable, I have no problem.

                          And the phone is heating while charging.. never experience that on oreo.

                          Maybe it will fix on the next update..

                            To pop up windows, it is difficult for first time and you know what, I do a practice to pop up windows from the top left/right corner....yes I do and I can do it easily now. LoL.

                              - camera is still the same, no new feature, and still paint-washing in lowlight. So now i'm using gcam.

                              - battery drain faster than oreo but still enough for a day use.
                              - AOD has new option 'tap to show' to showing for 30 seconds, and we can use our own picture. That's cool.

                              - one ui is smooth just like i feel on oreo. No lagging. Except when i open the gallery, the picture loading is slower.

                              - i can't use pop up window by reducing aplication from up corner like usual.

                              Other are the same.
