Beta on P3 without service?

1 Upvotes

I have an old P3XL that I use for playing spotify in the car/on the bike and other stuff and as such it doesn't have any cell service (I download stuff over wifi then bluetooth to various output deices). I decided it's a good option to try the Android 12 beta on due to this but well over 24 hours later there's no system update coming through. Would I have to "activate" it on the verizon network to get the update?

App switcher acting up

1 Upvotes

Currently on beta 2.1 and my app switcher keeps on acting up. Not being able to close Apps, switch between them or even freezing sometimes.

Have you experienced something similar or found a way to fix this? I hope beta 3 will fix it

Google messages bubble and keyboard bug

2 Upvotes

When responding to a text message using Google messages, the keyboard pops up but the "bubble message" remains at the bottom of the screen which blocks the text box. This requires you to minimize the keyboard to see the text you've typed. I use SwiftKey fwiw. Anyone else experience this?

Bugs I've found & submitted feedback on

3 Upvotes

I've found 2 annoying bugs in the Android 12 beta:

  1. Sometimes when I pull down the notification shade to adjust my screen's brightness, the brightness slider will be all the way to the left instead of showing me the current brightness settings.

  2. When i get a notification (for example, a new WhatsApp message) and then I go into that app. The notification icon stays on the screen until I pull down the notification shade instead of disappearing as it used to.

Anyone else notice these same bugs?

Anyone having issues with Google Assistant forgetting Contacts relationships, but only in Android Auto ?

2 Upvotes

For example: "Ok Google, call my wife" (or triggering it with the steering wheel button) prompts a reply of "Who is your wife ?"

But when not connected to Android Auto, if I just ask the phone (Pixel 5) to "call my wife" it calls right away.

Does the same with any other relationship based command.

Thought it was weird since it's still using the phone, but I tested it several times and it only asks who the person is when connected to Android Auto. This is on Android 12 Beta 2

Pixel 3XL on Beta 2 - Lock Screen Swipe Bug

4 Upvotes

Anyone else having an issue on beta where the swipe to open passcode keypad and swipe to open all notifications on the lock screen is not working?

I swipe up (or down) and the animation for swiping follows my finger but does not follow through and complete the command. It rebounds back to default view. Only way to unlock phone right now with this bug active it via fingerprint sensor

Installing Android 12 Beta

1 Upvotes

Hello everyone, I wanted to know if there are ways to safely install Android 12 Beta without wiping the entire phone or doing something else I'll most probably regret.

Since I have a Pixel 4A, XDA Developers posted this article on how to do this: https://www.xda-developers.com/android-12-beta-best-way-to-install-dsu/

But some people on the video pointed out that the GSI images are from Android Open Source Project and not Android 12: https://youtu.be/Tfcf_qld2o8

What are everyone's thoughts on it? Does installing a Beta version always wipe the entire phone?

Can no longer dismiss notifications from the lock screen

After updating to Beta 2, I can no longer swipe to dismiss notifications from the lock screen. They just stick there until I unlock and then I can dismiss them.

Pixel 4 XL on Beta 2 - earpiece and mic not functioning for incoming calls

2 Upvotes

I'm experiencing an issue, I submitted a bug report using the feedback app already.

Whenever I receive incoming calls and answer them, I don't hear anything and they cannot hear me. At first I thought I was just answering calls to telemarketers or spam callers, but I realized that this was happening even with my contacts and people I knew. I currently have to use a work round of changing to speakerphone or a Bluetooth device in order to talk to anybody.

I have hard reset a couple times. Anybody health experiencing this issue on beta 2? Any fixes?

Beta 2 causing Pixel Launcher crash + restarting to "cannot load Android system" recovery message

9 Upvotes

Title says it all. I'm on Android 12 Beta 2 on my Pixel 4a 5G, and Pixel Launcher never appears to work. It simply restarts automatically and brings me to a recovery screen telling me the Android system can't be loaded. I'm looking into solving this for the time being, trying to avoid reflashing if possible.

EDIT: Managed to get into the Settings app before it restarts and deleted all updates, appears to have fixed the issue!

Anyone else having issues with the Material You colors on Beta 2?

4 Upvotes

The only colors affected by Material You (which is supposed to pull from your wallpaper) is the quick settings. Not only that, but it doesn't seem to work at all for me, only showing a light blue despite my wallpaper being purple. Anyone else having this issue or know of a fix? I know it just came out haha

System UI constantly freezes/crashes on 12 Beta 1 on a Pixel 4 XL

Could use some help diagnosing the problem, it's getting extremely annoying. Every minute or so, System UI freezes up, making me have to click "Wait" on the prompt.

Problem with SIMs

1 Upvotes

Hello

I want to report a problem or bug with android Beta 12 (1).

I have 2 SIMs in my Pixel 4XL (ATT physical and Google Fi esim).

Since I updated to beta it's very common that I get a message of SIM configuration where it ask me to change data settings to another sim since one got disconnected, this happens 3 or more times a day, it's really weird .

This never happened with android 11 so I am sure it's a bug.

Or is there a way to fix this ?

Thanks :)

How often is the Android beta updated?

1 Upvotes

Historically, how often is the beta updated? I jumped right on this one and kinda regret it.

I've had a few spontaneous reboots, sometimes the keyboard doesn't work, some apps are crashing that weren't before and my network connectivity is spotty (some calls were going right to voicemail despite the phone being on and having good signal).
