My Android Rollback (16 to 15) has arrived!
After emailing back and forth with Redmagic Support for 2 weeks, I can finally rollback to Android 15 on my Redmagic 9 Pro.
Issues I had with Android 16 update:
- [bug] battery only charges 10% to 20% in 5-6 hours in Neocharge mode (20W). Charges normally in MaxCharge (45W) and MaxCharge Turbo (80W)
- [bug] in Nubia Launcher (System Launcher) swiping pages doesn't work or swipes 2 or 3 pages at once
- [bug] microphone not working anymore on any app during a call (phone app, whatsapp, discord, 3CX) until app reinstall, maybe a permission issue
- [bug] mobile data would randomly stop working during the day (no service) for 1 or 2 hours at times
- [bug] battery charge drops significantly faster during the day (only 30% left at the end of the day instead of the usual 60~70%)
- [unwanted feature] double pressing the lock button opens the camera and there's no way to change it or turn it off
- [unwanted feature] AI everywhere: call assistant, game assist, writing, translate
I had to provide screenshots and video proof for most of these issues as they need to forward as much info as possible to the developers to fix them.
This downgrade is a complete OS reinstall and will WIPE ALL DATA. It's not possible to recover locally stored app data without root access, and getting root access wipes data as well. I only backed up my apks, photos, videos, music, passwords, whatsapp chats and anything that I can export normally.
Happy to go back
