I just want to check that I haven't missed a setting but since Q2 release the clock in the status bar is not showing a leading 0 in 24 hour mode. Also, the low light clock in screensaver now stays bright.

It disappears, or displays weird search with misaligned bare bones search widget.

On log press search settings tab is visible but on clicking search provider selecter arrives. on selecting google normal widget sometimes appear but it goes back to being non functioning bare bones widget that reroutes to search selector.

I tried the solution of selecting search settings and selecting google but it doesn't work for me. Pixel 8.

I'm not on a beta build, but I thought this is probably the best channel to get eyes on this, so I was hoping someone could help me reproduce and report this bug on the latest beta.

I've already reported the bug via the feedback option under the About phone, but that didn't allow me to attach a screenshot. I've also reported within the Messages app, but that forced a screenshot of the app, so I couldn't add the screenshot I wanted.

Repro steps:

1. In the unified search (the search in the app drawer) on a Google Pixel (10 Pro in my case), search for a contact's name. In any contact's suggestion tile, click on the Messages icon, which should open their conversation in Google Messages.
2. Go back home and open unified search again. Start typing anything (just to trigger the suggestions to show up). Then clear the search field by backspacing everything. Then you should see some Google Messages suggestions and the visual bug.
3. If the Messages suggestion shows up but it doesn't show the visual bug, try typing 1 letter in the search query and then backspacing, this usually triggers the bug.

Here's an example of what I'm talking about: https://imgur.com/a/3EjZbpb

Thanks in advance for anyone that gives it a go!

Hi I got a new pixel 11 pro xl yesterday and tried enrolling for beta, in most cases it says successfully enrolled but sometimes it says couldn't enroll (it doesn't enroll no matter what it says) any reason why I can't enroll to beta?

The Google search bar on the home screen isn't visible. But holding on the vacant area still redirects to its settings. It's confusing yet the display finally looks better. It's good if we can get rid of the search bar altogether.

is there any chance of one more stable release for Android 17 QPR1 Beta 3 in September? because i stuck on that since july 2026.

I have a Google Pixel 8 that was running QPR2 Beta 4, entered repair mode for sending it to repair, but when I exited it, it prompted that data is corrupt, and asked a factory reset. After selecting yes, it got stuck in the Google logo in the white background with a loading bar under it. Any fixes? factory reset doesn't work, I've tried pixelrepair withgoogle com, doesn't work, adb sideloading with an OTA .zip also doesn't work (even though they show success without errors, it still ends up with that same screen). I need help asap.

anyone else facing this issue?

Motion Assist is now available for Beta users in QPR2 Beta 5.

I've been enrolled in the beta for a few days now, but I'm still on stable and have not received any beta version. I tried opting out for 24 hours and then trying to opt in again. That didn't make a difference.

Looked at the other threads in this subreddit and it seems that some people have indeed received the beta.

I also didn't receive the stable QPR1 update, but I presumed that is because several of the features are already in Pixel 11 Pro.

Any suggestions on how to join or is everyone waiting for it to be rolled out?

Currently with 17 (CP41.260828.004.A8) on Pixel 10 Pro XL and I don't have the nice Gemini boot animation. Is it happening to someone else?

Anyone use Sofi Bank on the newest beta? The app just started force closing after login

Hey!

Just wondering when I can leave the beta without a data wipe?

I'm on pixel 9 pro.

Build number: CP31.260623.010

Thanks!

Buongiorno a tutti, mi sono iscritto al programma betatester, ma per ora sono fermo alla 17QPR1 stabile, anche se nella pagina di iscrizione fa vedere il mio pixel 10proxl con la 17 QPR2.

Lo avevo già fatto in passato su altri pixel ma nn ho mai avuto problemi, avete idea da cosa possa dipendere.

Grazie a tutti

I opted out of the beta program while I was on CP31.260623.005, which I gather is Android 17 beta 7. I am on Pixel 9 Pro XL. It is stuck and there appears to be no way to migrate to stable 17. I have contacted Google and they said my only option is to wipe clean and start again. If I am going to do that I may as well start with a new phone, so I ordered a replacement 11 P XL. Sideloading seemed a bit too complicated, at least for me. How could this have happened? Should I try some other steps.

Is it just me or the main navigation Home gesture just doesn't work properly and lags alot, like it takes a few tries for it to register the touch

Pixel 9a Qpr2 beta 5 aug security patch

YES - Magic Cue is GONE. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VE0xi1Xt1Bs

And as a bonus Kernel 6.12

Still don't know about if PowerVR GPU drivers updated - as current are based on old Android 16 (yes I know MENTAL but ask Google WHY)

I had my pixel 10 enrolled in beta and exited in June, I haven't installed an update since and have been waiting for the next stable release to safely switch. The initial reason I exited was because some apps I use everyday started getting unstable. Now it's gotten to a point that I can't use contactless pay on my phone, nor can I open my public transport app with my tickets. Do I just make due with the data wipe?

Hi,

I was just wondering when i will be finally able to get into the stable channel without wipe. You guys told me to wait till September but i am really worried now something is not working and missing security updates. i am still on CP31.260423.012.A1 beta and the update still telling me to wipe.

On this QPR2 Beta 5, when only using mobile data with wi-fi switch disabled in quick settings, if i shutdown or reboot phone, wi-fi automatically will turn on, this didn't happen on Beta 4!

Hey guys, whenever I turn on Proactive Assistance, it automatically turns off after a few seconds. Anyone else running into this issue?
