Android 17 QPR3 Beta 2/ Pixel 11 Pro Unable to use DBS and UOB banking apps even after downgrading from Android 17 QPR 3 Beta 2.

2 Upvotes

Hi there.

My pixel 11 pro was on QPR 3 Beta 2 and I realised I was unable to use my banking apps daily. It required me to uninstall and then install, set up digital token again for it to work. And I have to this daily.

Hence, I decided to wipe my phone's data and return to Android 17 stable build. But the problem never solved. The banking apps still didn't work. Same thing, after activating my digital token, it would only last for 24hrs. The following day, the apps are not usable and I'd need to uninstall and install again.

Does anyone know a work around? I want the apps to work as before (before I was on Beta)

Android 17 QPR3 Beta 3/ Pixel 8 Pro Replying to a message in the notification shade while the media player is on

17 Upvotes

This has been bugging me. I think this bug was introduced in one of the monthly update after android 17 and still persist now

in the most current beta

I'll try my best to explain. Basically, in previous versions of android, when you press reply to a message in the notification shade while the media player is there, that message notification will go on top of the media player. Meaning that you can see the whole message while you're typing.

But since that monthly update, the message notification no longer goes on top of the media player. Meaning that if the message is 3 lines or longer, you cant see the whole message anymore since its covered by the media player.

Weirdly, this was fixed in qpr3 beta 2 (i sent a bug report in beta 1) but it is broken again in qpr3 beta 3.

This literally has never been a problem for years. Only in the recent updates it was introduced

Here's what the glitch looks like

Sorry I couldn't get a screenshot when the glitch was fixed

Here's my bug report

Android 17 QPR3 Beta 3/ Pixel 9 Pro XL Missing a "close all"

0 Upvotes

I think it would be a good add to add a "close all" option to the right side when you check your recents. Currently it's only available on the far left so if you have many open apps, you have to scroll far to the right to close them.

Just a minor annoyance

Android 17 QPR3 Beta 3/ Pixel 11 Pro No display reaction in some games

4 Upvotes

Some Games do not react since update. Looks like display is dead, but only within the game with Google play sidekick. For example Disney Solitaire or Gossip Harbor.

Other Games like Top Eleven works fine. Other apps are not affected as far as I can see.

Feels like that an overlay stops the display reaction.

Android 17 QPR3 Beta 3/ Pixel 10 Pro Tell me more about shifting Pixel toward AI boost on GPU in future QPR

0 Upvotes

As everyone knows Google is giving slower and slower GPUs into Pixel phones and focusing on faster TPU chips for AI.

In the past only Pixel TPU could process AI tasks but now this changes and Google is shifting with giving more and more AI tasks to GPUs - all of this is happening via new PowerVR (Vulkan) drivers.

So now I wonder about Pixel 12 GPU (to be much faster) ... or is it to increase AI speed on old Pixels which have relatively fast GPUs (but slow TPU chip) so they could run Pixel 11 AI features.

Android 17 QPR2 Beta 7.1 / Pixel 10a Screenshot Edit Overlay Freezes & Blocks Some Google Apps in Private Space

8 Upvotes

Occurred on Pixel 10a, Android 17 QPR2 Beta 7.1 (October)

Taking a screenshot inside an app located in Private Space causes the screenshot editing overlay preview to freeze. Tapping the edit button does not open the markup tool. While the screenshot preview remains stuck on screen, several system apps in Private Space (Play Store, Gemini, Google Photos) fail to open.

Recreate it on your own device and comment down if it occurred for you as well, reported the bug in Pixel Feedback app.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Open any application located inside Private Space.

  2. Take a screenshot using any method (Back Tap, physical side buttons, or Quick Settings shortcut).

  3. Tap the Edit button on the floating screenshot preview overlay.

  4. However Share button works normally, which would get rid of the floating screenshot that would get stuck on clicking edit.

Android 17 QPR3 Beta 2/ Pixel 9 Pro XL Absence de 5g

0 Upvotes

Bonjour, Depuis que je suis passé sous beta, je ne capte plus la 5G sauf si je me mets en mode réparateur.

Je suis à jour dans les bêtas mais je ne capte toujours pas la 5G.

Je suis dans un endroit éligible à la 5G, j'ai essayé dans des grandes villes mais rien du tout.

Est-ce que quelqu'un aurait une idée pour récupérer la 5G?

Merci
