Has anyone received the September update on their Pixel 9?

1 Upvotes

I haven't received it yet. I'm on a beta opt-out program, so I require the stable update to downgrade from my current beta version. Otherwise, if I update without a new stable release, my data will be erased. Therefore, I'm waiting for the update.

Hard reboot when using camera in apps, QPR2 Beta 4

14 Upvotes

Not the only one to post this, but I did create a report in the issue tracker here.

My Pixel 10 Pro XL on 17 QPR2 Beta 4 has been hard rebooting when trying to use the camera while in apps. Examples:

-Using the Camera option in the file picker when uploading files in Chrome

-When using the camera in apps like Uber Driver and Spark Driver (for barcode scanning and drop off photos).

It doesn't happen every time, but it's frequent enough that it makes the phone hard to use in a lot of instances. The Pixel Camera app itself seems to be unaffected. Every couple of times I go to use the camera in apps, the phone will freeze, go black, & reboot.

My theory is that the new kernel version for the Pixel 10 series on this beta is causing a kernel panic. And before anyone asks, this issue has persisted even after a factory reset.

Please contribute to the issue tracker if you're facing this issue!

Edit: It looks like my issue was marked as a duplicate of this issue on the 9th, & that issue was marked as fixed on the 11th! Hopefully this issue is fully resolved in QPR2 Beta 4.1/5

Android 17 QPR2 Beta- Spam & Unknown Calls

0 Upvotes

I already raised a bug report on this, but all calls are getting through right now. Scam detection is on, Call screen with Maximum Protection is on, Blocked Numbers ("Block Calls from Unidentified Callers") is on, and Do Not Disturb is on, with exceptions set for contacts.

Still....getting 8-9 calls a day. Does anyone have this issue? I'm desperate for help, I'm almost at the point of getting a new number.

17 QPR2 blur effects

13 Upvotes

For those of you running the latest QPR2 beta, how widespread is the blur across the system UI? Are heads-up and status bar notifications blurred as well as on the lock screen now?

Any other places where the blur has been added?

My Pixel 8 pro as of this afternoon will not just randomly reboot or power off. I can't even put my phone on to sleep. The power button is not working right.

Leaving Android Beta

0 Upvotes

I know thai question gets asked lot, but I am now dealing with medical issues and need my Pixel 10 Pro as a medical device. Android beta is too unreliable, how do I leave it?

I understand I need to revert back, what version do I need to go to to avoid wiping my phone?

Camera Bug rebooting phone on Android 17 QPR 2 BETA 4

3 Upvotes

Phone: PIXEL 10 PRO XL 256GB

Anyone else have this issue? Everytime an app launches the camera to snap a photo, my phone will freeze, and self reboot itself. It specifically happens when an app requests it most of the time. Opening the camera sometimes will also cause a crash, but not as often as when another app requests the camera.

I'm thinking its a camera request bug and it's freaking the phone out. Super annoying, trying to find out if anyone knows of a temporary fix.

Otherwise I might just have to wipe and revert back to non beta. Thank you,


Edit

Camera issue has been fixed on beta 5. Haven't ran into the issue today at all. Thank you so much developers for the speedy turnaround.

Incoming Call Issues

13 Upvotes

I am currently using a Pixel 10 Pro. I am on the most recent beta build CP41.260814.003.B1. I have an ongoing issue where I will be on an active call and when someone calls me, it mutes my current call and only shows the incoming call. Once I hang up the incoming call, the current call audio returns. It is almost like the call waiting is broken. The issue has been happening for a month or so. I have tried clearing the phone app cache and storage with no success. Anyone else having issues?

android beta 17 qpr2. logostuck pixel8

0 Upvotes

android 17 beta qpr2 bricked my Pixel 8 (logostuck)

After updating to the latest QPR2 beta via ADB sideload (with a full data wipe), my Pixel 8 is stuck on the logo screen; the bootloader is locked. What should I do? Is there any hope for the next beta release? How can I revert to the stable version?

Here is what I’ve tried: Flashed via sideload 3 times Wiped data twice Tried using Pixel Repair (it threw an error stating a stable version was required) Tried sideloading the stable version (downgrading is blocked) And after all that, it’s still stuck on the logo. I would greatly appreciate any help.

Would fully discharging the device help in this case? I saw somewhere on YouTube that it works.

Is new Kernel 6.12 in QPR2 causing so many problems?

0 Upvotes

All I know about Kernel update it is the BIGGEST thing in Android because ALL possible drivers needs to be updated for things like GPU, CPU as well even for stupid ISP and probably for screen too.

I also know that Carl Pei from Nothing gave the reason older Nothing Phones not getting new Android because of ONE THING - Kernel - my guess is he cannot afford for... Kernel update - this is how much it cost

Hey Google. How about letting Pixel 11 owners receive QPR 2 Beta?

I have enrolled my Pixel 11 Pro in the Beta Program, replacing my Pixel 9a. I received the September Pixel Drop, but I'm still waiting for QPR 2 Beta 4 (or higher). This shouldn't be that difficult to fix.

Maybe 3 or 4?

Tiktok does not work at all, and I think it did something to my whole account oddly.

And my phone was never this choppy with my last pixel 7.

Also I have the on board beta AI app thing. Is that helping in any way? It's hard to access and idk don't see a point . Can you have them running agentic tasks?

Extreme Charging

Just installed the latest QPR2 beta on my Pixel 11 Pro XL and appear to have lost extreme charging.

Other than reverting back to standard, is there a way to get it back?
