Windows 10 Mobile Fall Creators Update: All the changes so far


Want to know all the changes coming in the next big update to Windows 10 Mobile? We've got you covered with a complete changelog!

Similar to our "all the changes so far" article for the Fall Creators Update on PC, we thought it'd be a good idea to round up all the changes coming in the Fall Creators Update for Windows 10 Mobile, also known as the "feature2" release.

So far, this update is entirely bug fixes and general improvements. There are no new features currently in testing for Insiders at this time. That doesn't necessarily mean new features won't show up in the future, however, as Microsoft has said they are working on "Enterprise related features" for Windows 10 Mobile. For now, the only changes in these builds are fixes and improvements.

New Features
There are currently no new features coming in this release.

New Fixes and Improvements
  • There is a new privacy page to the Windows 10 Mobile OOBE experience that allows you to quickly and effectively make common privacy changes while setting up the device. (This change was backported to the Creators Update.)
  • Fixed the issue where the keyboard would sometimes not appear when a text input field is selected in Microsoft Edge.
  • Fixed an issue where Continuum would stop working when HP Elite X3 case is closed.
  • Fiixed an issue where Continuum would hang or render incorrectly after disconnecting on devices like the Lumia 950.
  • Fixed an issue with Microsoft Edge where you might get into a bad state after opening a new Microsoft Edge windows and screen off with the JIT process suspended.
  • Fixed an issue with where the device screen might stay black when disconnecting from a Continuum dock after screen has timed out normally.
  • Fixed an issue with backup and restore which impacts users with slower network connection.
  • Fixed an issue around Microsoft Edge reliability.
  • Fixed an issue where some Insiders were unable to open both the Connect UX page and/or the "Add Bluetooth or other devices" setting on the Bluetooth Settings page.
  • Fixed an issue resulting in an unexpected extra ~20 sec being added to the phone shutdown process due to a deadlock if you tried to shut down soon after switching from one network to another.
  • Fixed an issue with the Glance screen where the time was not updating.
  • Fixed the token issue so when your device syncs to the service, text messages should show back up.
  • Fixed an issue where the Battery Settings page caused the device to become unresponsive and appear to have hung.
  • Fixed a general issue where certain background tasks were being incorrectly starved under resource contention. This issue would impact music and video playback.
  • Under low memory conditions, additional app launches will cause the OS to run out-of-memory and the device will restart unexpectedly to recover. This fix detects the condition and blocks app launches until memory is freed up.
  • Fixed an issue with Microsoft Edge which prevented the phone from entering Connected Standby which caused battery drain.
  • Fixed an issue where the word auto-correction service would crash.
  • Fixed 2 issues causing the device screen to stay off when unplugging from the Continuum dock after screen has timed out normally requiring the device to be rebooted to recover.
  • Fixed an issue with the Notifications Settings page which made the UI appear unresponsive.
  • Fixed an Enterprise MDM issue where the policy could hide all pages except the Work Access page.
  • Fixed an issue where the Call audio did not move to speaker after removing the headset on some phones.
  • Improvements to power and performance for apps, such as Fitbit, for pair, connect, sync and notifications.
  • Fixed an issue where notifications would not be mirrored to the user's PC and Cortana's cross-device settings would not persist.
  • The copyright date is correctly showing 2017 now under Settings > System > About.
  • Fixed an issue where WhatsApp would not launch after updating to the latest Mobile builds.
  • Fixed an issue with using the Japanese 12 Key soft keyboard where the "right arrow" key did not input a space
  • Fixed an issue with the Bulgarian keyboard localization for the HP Lap Dock in Continuum.
  • Improvements to the reliability of notifications for apps with a paired Bluetooth device, such as Fitbit.
  • Improved the Time & Language settings page UX for Speech and Keyboard language downloads. Previously, the status would show "Downloading" for speech and "Installing" for keyboard. Unless, the user tapped on the language or navigated to the Update & Security settings page, there was no indication that a restart is required to complete the installation. Now when the update reaches the reboot pending state, a "Restart Required" is displayed under the language.
  • Fixed several enterprise device management issues.
  • Fixed an issue where notifications and Cortana's cross-devices settings on your device were not being mirrored to your PC.
  • Fixed an issue where only the first VPN profile was being displayed in the VPN settings page via Settings > Network & wireless > VPN.
  • Fixed an issue where a meeting Time Zone was garbled in Chinese or Japanese.
  • Based on Insider feedback, this release has changed "Phone Update" to "Windows Update" under Settings > Update & security.
  • Fixed an issue where some apps could not subscribe to SMS receive notifications.
  • Fixed an issue for Windows Insiders where some binaries stopped working when transitioning from Insider Preview builds to officially released builds.
  • Fixed an audio issue with Bluetooth headphones after Cortana reads an incoming SMS message to the user.
  • Fixed notifications (SMS, Calendar) with all Fitbit trackers.
  • Fixed crashes reported while using Photos app.
  • Fixed a deployment issue in where if an admin uses ActiveSyncCSP to provisioning email account on device running the Windows 10 Creators Update without providing a valid password, and the email server enforces a limited number of denied access retries, then the server will lock out the email account.
  • Improved battery performance by fixing a bug in a scenario where 30% more power was used during Camera app preview and capture mode. Some Insiders provided feedback that playing video on phone resulted in a black flash and/or stuttering when in landscape mode. Microsoft has fixed this issue.
  • Improvements to Bluetooth connectivity with Garmin Wearable devices.
  • General improvement in reliability of phones by fixing top crash issues.
  • Fixed an issue where VPN profile appeared to be always ON.
  • Fixed a notification issue between the Bluetooth Support Service and device background services for fitness bands.
  • Fixed issues with Caller ID matching in Japan & Denmark.
There are a total of 46 fixes and improvements currently in testing with the feature2 builds.

Features de seguranca para enterprise. Lock à store, bloquear acesso a câmera fotográfica entre tantos outros.

Ou o enterprise já não é o mercado alvo?
 
Todos nós queremos novas features, mas ter bug fixes e improvements não me parece negativo. Resolver os problemas que alguns que não são PRO têm, parece-me ser um caminho bom e bastante positivo.

Claro que os PRO, que não têm problemas, gostavam de ter nova features, mas o principal objectivo neste momento é pelo menos manter as apps actualizadas, dentro da loja, não perder muitas mais, para fazer render os nossos equipamentos.

Espero que seja verdade que continuam a desenvolver novas features e que os insiders que neste momento são outsiders, possam ver essas features em breve. Se o caminho para a glória e para um bem maior for esse nós esperamos....sentados, para não cansar.:D
 
Para não dizerem que venho cá só para dizer mal deixo-vos uma característica interessante.

A aplicação das fotografias cria álbuns automaticamente de um determinado dia ou dias e avisa o utilizador dessa criação. É uma coisa engraçada. Dá-nos uma perspectiva diferente das fotos e pode lembrar-nos de momentos felizes.

Também umas coisa interessante é que nesse álbum de fotografias indica que se pode ver no OneDrive.
Ao clicar no link abre o OneDrive no Edge. Pensei que fosse abrir na aplicação dedicada, mas não.

Também engraçado é que quando se abre no edge, aparece um aviso para se abrir a aplicação do OneDrive.

Trabalhos em cima do joelho ...

Tenho várias Apps instaladas e apenas duas usam a funcionalidade "Aplicações para Sites". Aplicações de terceiros até compreendo que não o façam, agora as da casa deviam dar o exemplo.

A App das Fotografias então é algo que não se percebe. Que interesse tem a funcionalidade dos álbuns diários automáticos se já temos a filtragem por data na vista principal?!

O que era necessário/útil era a filtragem por pessoas, locais, e outras demais características ... tudo possível com os Cognitive Services da MS (como o LinkedIn). Outra coisa que curiosamente existia na App do W8 (PC), sources de outros serviços de fotos (Flickr por exemplo).

Além de terem passado para manutenção o SO não evoluem funcionalidades/aplicações de sistema. Na prática a App de Fotografias está igual ao que estava no lançamento, enquanto isso os adversários continuam a evoluir as suas Apps respetivas.

Nao, não me venham dizer que preciso de colocar estas ideias online. Aquela App tem que ter um Team Leader/Project Manager, e a função desse tipo era ver o óbvio (tudo o que disse é óbvio). Senão vê isso é incompetente!
 
Andam?! Criar vídeos a partir de fotos?! É giro mas será mais importante que mais opções de filtragem?! Não me parece, e quem tira bastantes fotos com os seus Lumias sabe disso e vive esse problema.

Quanto ao não ser para nós, sei que os Lumias são para morrer, mas ou vêm novos Smartphones em breve ou então que sentido faz a App "evoluída" não estar presente no tipo de dispositivo que captura as fotos?!
