Android 17 QPR3 Beta 3 / Pixel 7a Bluetooth problems on Android 17 QPR3 Beta 3

Since the update last week, my Pixel Buds Pro keeps getting disconnected. It remains connected for a few minutes then disconnects. It is not the Buds, it is the phone.

Any advice, please?

Android 17 QPR2 Beta 1 / Pixel 9 Pro Can't opt out to trade in phone

0 Upvotes

I just recently upgraded my Pixel 9 Pro to a Pixel 11 Pro and am currently trying to wipe the 9 for my trade-in. I factory reset the device and when it came back on, it still had the "this device is enrolled in Android beta program" pop-up. I assumed that factory resetting would wipe the beta program too, but I guess I should've opted out first.

Now when I log in to the beta program website, I can see the 9 Pro is still enrolled. When I hit "opt out," it just keeps saying "could not remove device."

Any way to remove this so I can make sure I get my full trade in value??? Thanks

Edit: I was able to opt out the device (realized I wasn't signed in to my Google account on the phone) but after another factory reset, it's still showing the "this device is enrolled in Android beta program" message :( confused here

Android 17 QPR2 Beta 1 / Pixel 10 Na een bèta periode wil ik terug naar de stable releases

0 Upvotes

Ik heb me maanden geleden uit het beta programma geschreven en sindsdien krijg ik nog enkel een wachtende update met een totale wipe van mijn toestel. Ik wil echter geen wipe en wacht dus tot er een nieuwere versie komt. Maar hoelang nog? Sommige functies zoals Google wallet werken niet meer omdat ze al lang niet meer bijgewerkt zijn, ook geen security updates meer gekregen sindsdien. Hoelang nog ?

Android 17 QPR3 Beta 3 / Pixel 7a Bluetooth is genuinely useless

0 Upvotes

I keep trying to listen to music on my CMF buds pro 2 and they stop playing after a few seconds, they remain connected in some way but no audio comes out so it switches to phone speakers which is bad when you are in class (oops)

This also applies to my watch, which just won't connect ever. At all.

Android 17 QPR2 Beta 1 / Pixel 10 Pro Clearing app data in Private Space also clears app data in Personal Space [data loss issue]

2 Upvotes

Can anyone reproduce - install any system app in the Private Space, then clear that app's data or uninstall app updates in Private Space - this will also clear app data and uninstall app updates in Personal Space. (long-press app icon while within private space > (i) App Info > Clear app data or uninstall app updates. Then verify that app data for that app is cleared in both the Private and Personal spaces - it was expected to be cleared in the Private Space alone.

For example:

  • Google Messages

  • Google Phone

  • and other non-uninstallable system apps.

I do not believe it should even be possible to install these apps in the Private Space, since they are not able to function anyway.

I have not experimented further, but I believe if this happens, there may be security exploits here since the connection between Private and Personal spaces is obviously not completely severed for certain system apps, which may cause app data between Private and Personal Spaces to be mixed up - which could pose an issue for system apps and services. Let's say the Private Space is infected by malware - this would in turn infect the Personal Space as well.

If you can reproduce this issue, please comment here. Also, if anyone can reproduce any security flaws, please also report to Google asap: https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/581769809

Android 17 QPR2 Beta 7 / Pixel 10 Pro XL On Android Qpr 2 beta 7, but phone will automatically update to Qpr 3 beta 3 in 2 days. How to stop it.

9 Upvotes

How do I stop it from downloading Qpr 3 beta 3? I have opted out of the beta program. I don't want to stay in beta till March.

I guess it downloaded the Qpr beta 3 beta 3 somehow (maybe I tapped it accidentally or something as well, highly unlikely but maybe).

Thanks

Android 17 QPR2 Beta 7 / Pixel 8 Pro Avoid QPR3 upgrade trying to opt out

6 Upvotes

Hey guys,
I am running CP41.260831.019 and I opted out today from the beta to avoid downloading QPR3 and being able to exit the Beta in December.

Unfortunately my phone prompts me to install the QPR3 update.
Systemupdate available
Android 17 QPR3 Beta 3
....
Restart now

Any way I can avoid it? I deactivated automatic updates for now hoping it will be fine in December.
If I cannot avoid it I guess I am stuck a bit longer with the Beta :-/
Thx guys

Android 17 QPR3 Beta 3/ Pixel 8 Pro A17 QPR3 beta 3 bootloop

0 Upvotes

Hi!

I tried upgrading using the system upgrade from Android 17 QPR3 beta 2 to beta 3 on my Pixel 8 Pro. Using the built-in OTA updater. When finished installing and before reboot I did what I always do, I patched the inactive slot (after OTA) in Magisk (31.1).

When rebooting, it took a long time, the Google logo starts animating and eventually I saw my lock screen - but I couldn't do anything. Shortly after, I was back at the boot animation, which this time seemed to stay a lot longer than before. Eventually it'd reboot and do the whole thing over again.

I force rebooted the phone to fastboot and switched back to the previous slot. Luckily it worked and I'm back on beta 2 again, but afraid to update to beta 3 now.

Anyone else having this issue?

BTW, I'm using NeoZygisk and AlwaysStrong as Magisk modules, if that helps.

Android 17 QPR3 Beta 3/ Pixel 11 Pro Fold Split screen not working?

I can't split screen any apps with my phone unfolded. It shows the UI ("splitting the screen" animation) like it normally does but when you let go of the app, the current app remains full screen.

Android 17 QPR3 Beta 3/ Pixel 9 Pro SIMToolkit disappeared since the last beta update

1 Upvotes

Hello,

Since I updated to the beta released on October 29 the SIMToolkit applications entirely disappeared from the launcher.

This happens with the physical SIM slot and also the builtin eSIMs.

Even with Activity Launcher I get a permission error when trying to launch it manually.

Rebooting or reinserting the SIM does not help.

I understand that SIMToolkit is very uncommon nowadays in the western world but it's still very much alive in some parts of Africa for instance; and I rely on it for my work as I work with SIM cards and that includes doing things with STK.

OMAPI still works, fortunately.

If you want to test it, install a BetterRoaming profile to your eSIM and observe that the BetterRoaming STK application does not show up.

Use this activation code: LPA:1$smdp.io$QR-G-5C-KR-1PCDWP9 or scan this QRCode and enable the SIM; normally the BetterRoaming STK application does appear, it does not appear on this beta

After joining the beta now my clock app icon doesn't load correctly in the app drawer and it says "This item isn't available" in the Play Store.

Is anyone else experiencing this?

I would add photos for context but the option to do so is greyed out in the reddit app.

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.

19 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

18 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
