November Nexus 5X Android Oreo Problems & Fixes

Right out of the gates we're hearing about new Nexus 5X Android Oreo problems. We aren't seeing any on our device, but others are already reporting various bugs and issues.

As we push away from the release we're seeing complaints about various bugs and performance issues. Some of these issues are new, others have carried over from previous Android 8.0 releases. 

Some Nexus 5X users attempting to download and manually install Oreo are running into errors and issues. We're also seeing complaints about connectivity, app performance, lag, reboots and boot loops, the fingerprint sensor, abnormal and battery drain. 

The list of issues is short right now, but we expect the list to grow as we push further and further away from the update's release date.

    Only have done the update since they officially rolled it out and it killed my phone.
    It got stuck in a boot loop and now won’t turn on period. Software has become corrupted and unrecoverable.
    I would consider avoiding the update completely for 5X users because now I have to buy a new phone, but that’s just my personal experience.

    After installing Oreo this morning my Nexus 5X is now running warm and almost hot to the touch. It was not warm when running Nougat. I can also confirm that I have turned off the phone for fifteen minutes until it completely cooled down and then rebooted the Nexus 5X and it still heats up. I can also confirm that battery is draining about 70% faster than it was when my Nexus 5X was running Nougat. When my Nexus 5x was running Nougat yesterday, my phone battery would last for up to two days, and now with the Oreo update that I performed two hours ago at full charge, my phone battery life has been reduced to six hours (current Android Power Management projection and falling fast; now it’s projecting five hours only fifteen minutes later), and yes the phone is still noticeably warm to the touch, which it was not with Android Nougat running on this Nexus 5X for the last eight months. How can The Deciders at Google decide to push an OS update to a device like the Nexus 5X when that update severely degrades that device’s performance? One wonders if they even tested Oreo on the Nexus 5X before they gave the green light to deploy Oreo to the Nexus 5X.

    I have updated my Nexus 5X to Android 8.0, but it’s not connecting to WiFi anymore! I used a different phone to connect to the same network I cannot connect to with my Nexus 5X. I have restarted it multiple times, I rebooted it in “safe mode”, I even did a factory reset, but it didn’t work at all :( I can only use my data, but not the WiFi. What can I do to solve this? Please help me!

    I reluctantly installed Oreo a few weeks ago on my Galaxy S8. I absolutely hated Lollipop and Marshmallow with all my heart. Then Nougat launched and restored my faith in Android. Never had I been so happy with an OS since Kitkat (GOAT) IMO.
    Anyways I enjoyed Nougat a great deal. I considered it Kitkat 2.0.
    Now I have Oreo and my GS8 battery drains faster than it can charge. Constant LTE drops which in turn affect my wifi. So I always have to preemptively turn my wifi off & on before I use Google or send an email. In between constant (App Stack Failures)

    I spoke at great length with Samsung Support and tried everything to remedy these issues short of driving 2 hours North just to get no help.

    Anyways cry complain piss and moan.
