Xbox Insider Program clarifies where Avatars are visible
« on: July 30, 2018, 12:24:01 PM »
A new update went out today for Xbox Insiders in the Preview Alpha and Skip Ahead rings that fix a few minor bugs from the previous build.

In its patch notes, Brad Rossetti also clarified exactly where the new Avatars are visible for members because it appears there was some confusion over the wording.

You can read the full patch notes for update 1810.180725-1920 below.

IMPORTANT BUILD NOTES

Avatars

We’ve received feedback that the integration of Avatars on the console has been a bit confusing due to the use of phrases like “Avatars on Home” and “Avatars on Dashboard,” so we wanted to clear up a few things. Currently, Avatars are visible to Xbox Insiders in the Alpha Skip Ahead and Alpha Rings in the following places: the Avatar Editor, activity feed, leaderboards, and the Profile.

FIXES

GameDVR

■ Resolved the error message that Something Went Wrong Try Again Later when
   recording Game Clips.

Groups

■ Fixed an issue in which some users would encounter the game not being added
   when adding a game to a group while installing the game.

My Games and Apps

■ Users should no longer experience Various Games and Apps failing to launch with
   no error code which required a title uninstall and reinstall.  This fix will resolve
   the issue when you launch the title.

■ Users should no longer experience an issue with the Store app erroring out with
   the (0x80070bfa) error when browsing/launching the Store.
 
Networking

■ Fixes to resolve the issue with Wireless and Wired networks failing to be detected
   when the console wakes from Instant on/connected standby.

■ Users can now save profiles in the Xbox Accessories app.

■ The settings for Blu-ray player audio passthrough is no longer broken when
   Dolby Atmos bitstream out is enabled.
 
Virtual Keyboard

■ The Virtual Keyboard will no longer auto close before the user can enter in their
   password when adding new accounts.

■ We have resolved the issue where users experienced various keys & controller
   shortcuts for the virtual keyboard are not being recognized. Certain keys
   (spacebar, @ symbol, – symbol) was not registering when being pressed on the
   keyboard (both the virtual keyboard and via a USB keyboard)
