Android O Beta issues - Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers

So I was quick to jump on the Android beta O as I was on the N rollout. I should have known there would be issues from when I was on the N beta but nevertheless I couldnt resist.
So far my issues are few but frustrating.
1. Anytime I get a call when the phone is locked it does not wake up the phone. I have to unlock the phone and click answer. Even after doing that theres still a notification that theres a call that I can either decline or answer even after Im already talking to the person. On the same issue, the proximity sensor doesnt work in the fact that when Im on the call the screen is still active and my cheek activates apps and whatnot. When on the call I cannot get to the actual phone app in order to change to speakerphone.
2. This might be silly but when using snapchat there is a significant lag and black screens between clicking on a story and it actually starting. Also in same app, when I try to take a horizontal photo it gets hung up and I have to close the app and take the photo vertically.
3. I dont know if its because Im using a launcher, but I dont get any notification dots on any of my apps. Maybe I have to be using pixel launcher in order for this to activate. Also, maybe I have to disable number notifications in the launcher for the O notifications to take over.
Those are the most noticeable so far but I figured Id get a thread going.

I keep getting Settings FC every now and then reboot doesn't fix it. Sometimes the FC disappears and settings works fine then it comes back again not sure what's causing it

Apparently pip only works with YouTube red or Google duo, neither of which I have to try. I did get another update about 5 hours after the initial update. It was much smaller than the first download.

I have both and it still does not work I also received the update

PIP does work in YouTube red for me just not duo. After the beta update yesterday my phones alot snappier. Still significant lag in Snapchat. Also Bluetooth audio does not work when playing music, only works with calls.

For PiP to work I followed this thread
https://www.xda-developers.com/enable-android-o-picture-in-picture-mode/
I don't have YouTube red but it works for me perfectly now. also Bluetooth has been working for me with my jaybird X3. so it might be some devices.

To get P.I.P I had to flash factory image instead of take OTA update. I have YouTube red so the background play can be a little funky with PIP.

Does anyone else have Google Play Music keep showing up in the notification bar? It just keeps popping up randomly. It doesn't start playing music, it just pops up there. I'll clear the panel and it shows up in a few minutes again.

Go to settings > apps & notifications > app info > phone > storage
clear data, and for good measure, clear cache.
Had exact same issue, this fixed it right away.

Yep keeps doing it for me too. Kind of annoying but whatever.

How about the launcher? I don't have the new one. Anyone else? I took the OTA. Maybe I should flash it?

Yeah. Also force closes after a reboot. Widget doesn't work either.

For me, Android Pay stopped working. Says that the phone is rooted, but it is not. Also some apps lag and battery life seems worse. I was thinking of opting out, but it will wipe out all user data, so I decided not to. Too lazy to restore everything back.

Anybody notice the radio signal is worse? Tried flashing older radios and modems. It got a little better but not as good as nougat.

Its going to be different for everyone. I was just curious. I get average 90 on nougat and 110-115 on O

I've noticed that there are several apps that have newer version available, but won't update or install. You tube, Google App (beta), Calendar (stock), Maps & Transit (beta) won't install when downloaded from APK Mirror, nor are they being updated via the Play Store.They all work fine though, so it's not a big deal. I'm just wondering if anyone else has encountered the same or similar behavior.

Eic 4g Touch Bugs Thread

I'm seeing many users notice different little bugs with the phone (me included) and instead of having multiple threads about it, maybe we can all post it in one place where later the devs can see it and work on them once the phone is rooted etc.. Good idea/bad idea? I come from an Evo 4g with Sense rom so I wonder how many of these might not really be "bugs" but just a different user experience.
I'll start..
Accu weather app not updating location automatically
apk files downloaded from the computer and then transferred to phone are not showing up (unknown sources, usb debugging checked)
No function when touching the clock widget. It does not launch me to alarm, world clock, time etc menu. Maybe this is just a touchwiz thing as I mentioned above, I come from a sense rom.
So far those are the ones on top of my head. As I use the phone more, I'm sure I'll spot more (hope not!).
Anyone else?
Phone dialer issues
I have to reboot my phone from time to time to make a call.
It just says call ended when i try to call out.
When i reboot it works fine for a few hours.
Mentioned above plus the following so far (except reboot for calling issue):
No landscape mode using TW (auto-rotate enabled)
Red LED only available notification color (REALLY?!)
Skype video calling is upside down when using in portrait mode.
Also, phone call is automatically in Speaker mode when calling after making a Skype video call.
*Occasional phone FREEZES. As in, one minute it is okay, and the next minute, you have to do a battery pull. Happened twice since I got it on launch day.
*Browser closing for no reason. Happened 4 times since launch day.
*When plugged in with Samsung charger, phone's screen will act real glitchy
*SWYPE does not work properly, no matter the settings. Have to type normally.
That's all the software bugs I've experienced. Hardware-wise, there are reports of problems with data, 3G, 4G, and WIFI....I haven't seen any word on Bluetooth yet.

Actually, other's have experienced auto-closing apps and freezing. It's in a thread around here or at sprintusers.com, I forget which.
For the first three days I couldn't get data while roaming though the proper settings were checked. Sprint customer care reset my phone and after an hour of waiting it works.
All else its great (except for the above oddities with Touch Wiz) though I haven't checked GPS after encrypting the device.

Can you elaborate on this issue?
Also, anyone else having similar issues, please chime in.
Are you seeing a circle with a slash through it (no service) when this happens?
Can you receive calls when this happens?
Do you lose 4G or WiFi? Or is it just Voice/3G?
Does it seem to happen sometime after making a call/text (~30min), or any other pattern you've noticed?
Are you rooted?
If yes, what kernel (zedomax or tanimn/shabbypenguin - trying to narrow down an issue with one of the current root kernels)?
Exchange Appt. Notification Bug
I have had multiple reminders pop up for from my Exchange calendar and i can't seem to dismiss or snooze them from the notification bar. The snooze and dismiss buttons are available but are non responsive. The only way I can get rid of the notification is with the "Clear" button which is for all notifications. Has anyone else noticed this?
Journeyjeans said:

I know this may sound silly, and you may have already checked this, but check your language settings. I've read about some owners that were having problems with Swype discovered that their language was set to Spanish.
Also, on the LED notifications only being Red, I've been playing with an App called Light Flow. I've at least been able to change the notification colors to Blue using this App. Also, the App lets you use "White" as a color, which still shows a Red light, but blinks very fast if some of you prefer a faster blinking light.
I have had the roaming data issue as well. It does eventually work for me though, but on once occasion it took 10 minutes before data turned on after the roaming started. I will try calling Sprint as well.
Wifi signal is bad.. but speedtest says otherwise. I think the issue is with the amount of bars displayed and not the actual signal. I was standing 5 fee fromt he router and still didn't have full bars.
Ive been having problems today with dropping data connection. Toggling 4G off and on seems to restore it even in no 4G areas. I guess it resets the radio or something?

Just got this phone friday. So far the only bugs I am experiencing are roaming in places my evo got coverage and the security draw pattern having a mind of its own making it very hard to unlock the screen. Also the wifi reception is noticeably weaker than my evo

Ive done that already and it didnt help. Thanks, tho.
Luckily, no freezes or crashes here (knock on wood).
what i HAVE noticed is the rotate bug, for instance
when rotating the phone for texting or browsing, you have to kind of
bring it up to your chest @ about a 90 degree angle in order for it to rotate.
calibrated it all correctly & i still have to do that.
this is my first phone from the Epic/Galaxy company so im not sure if that was a problem in the original Epic 4g (non-touch) but it sure is kind of annoying :/
hopefully the dev's can tweak the gyro or SOMETHING.
Poor Wifi/3g Signal
Noticed lower bars on both wifi and 3g...when in same spot on my Evo 4g I had more...might be just how many bars its displaying and not the actual signal...but not for sure...actually went into roaming a few times when with my Evo 4g I never did (even with roaming was set to automatic...now I have it set to sprint only)
Hello. Has anyone tried updating through Kies? I tried and it says that this version of software cannot be updated. I just got my phone today. I did have problems installing the drivers. After I let it install say one or two drivers, one would error out. Once I unplugged it a few times and then plugged it back it, all of the drivers installed.
I hope this doesn't mean that Samsung is not going to upgrade to ICS or else I am taking this back. I have a Samsung Galaxy Tab 7" and it won't allow updating with rooting. Thanks for any input and have a great day/night!

I noticed this too.
you have to check the check boxes next to the calender item. This is deceptive because the boxes have checks in them. But they should be green and not grey.
hope that helps

[Q] How do I prevent the SAME notifications from constantly showing up?

So I did a bunch of searching and either I am in the wrong place, or no one else seems to have this problem, but I am seeing the same notifications showing up on my Moto 360 over and over even after I dismiss them. For example, I will get the Google Now scores for sports events (some for teams I couldn't care less about) popping up over and over and over again even after I swipe them away. They are not even real notifications on my phone - so not sure why they are popping up in the first place. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.
You have to go into Google Now on your phone and configure the card settings there. Should be options to no longer see cards you're not interested in, or tweak their content. Otherwise it will periodically update phone & watch with cards - this is just how the service works.
Personally I leave it turned off completely as the benefits are meagre vs demands it makes on phone & watch power. There are more efficient ways of keeping yourself updated on the info you need when you need it, IMHO.

Thanks for the reply. So even if I dismiss the notification on the watch, and there is NO notification in the notification tray on the phone, it is expected that I still constantly receive card notifications on the watch? That seems broken to me...

Ok, I got that, but again, my problem is not that the initial notification shows up, it's that once I swipe it away it keeps coming back. I suppose that's an issue with Google Now though and not the watch.
You are not alone.
I'm having the same issue.
Moto 360 4.4W.2 - Wear Mini Launcher
Moto X (2013) 4.4.4 - Google Now Launcher.
I'm almost certain that those launchers are doing it. Days ago I had a friends's birthday notification poping over and over again, it would back to my watch face in like 5s after I had it dismissed, when i remove wear mini launcher all that stoped.
Today I installed it again, just for sake of testing, since is a very helpful software. The problem started again, but now with a amazon delivery notification, so im uninstalling it.

Sorry to rehash an old topic, but I'm having the same issue..
The card in question is to do with sport, and I do want to see the card so turning off isn't an option, but when I swipe it away I don't want it to come back!
Anyone found a solution?

Nope, it's the way Google Now does sport cards -- if a game is in progress, it sends you constant updates. Even if you swipe the update away, the next time anything changes, it'll just reappear, until the game / match is over (once you swipe away the card for a completed game it stays away, for me). I wish Now was more customizable.

Actually having exactly the same problem and it is specifically with sports cards. LG G3 (Verizon) 5.1 and G Watch R. I'll swipe a sports card away (last game score, next game time, etc.) and it will be back within a few minutes. Very irritating.

Delayed Notifications In Android P

First off, I disabled adaptive battery in Android P. Ever since the upgrade from 8 to 9, I noticed that notifications are right around 5 minutes late. I have a couple time-sensitive apps that I need notifications right away. Gmail and another app for my home automation. In Android 8, the were flawless. However, ever since going to 9, not so much.
I also noticed that when I delete messages in the gmail app for gmail and an IMAP email server I have it does nothing with the messages on the server. I login to webmail from a computer and the messages are still in the Inbox.
Anyone have any ideas? I am going to try a wipe again to see if it resolves the issues, but I am out of ideas. I had the above issues in Android 9 beta as well. I would downgrade and it fixed them.
I have the same thing and it turns out it is a common issue with Pie. I have not found a solution yet. I have read all kinds of things people have tried and nothing seems to help. Sorry that I can't be more positive. Hopefully Google will figure something out and fix in an update.
Here is a two page post I started about the issue but there are also many others online describing the same thing:
https://forums.androidcentral.com/android-pie/904647-notifications-delayed-stopped.html
My thought is that the delayed notifications are due to Android Pies implementation of adaptive battery. Maybe try excluding the apps you want to receive notifications from in a timely manner?

You don't happen to have data saver in the quick tiles turned on by accident do you? That does prevent notifications from getting pushed. Both my parents had this on and a bunch of notifications came through after turning it off. I made sure to remove it from even being an available option.

been fighting with this issue as well, but it only seems to be gmail, and a couple other apps, my sms notifications seem to come through fine, at least as far as I can tell. I've turned off adaptive battery etc, nothing seems to make a difference. sometimes i can turn my screen on and all the notifications will come flooding in, other times they come through 10ish min later.
yes i have also these issue
and i opened thread on these https://forum.xda-developers.com/pixel-2-xl/help/gmail-sync-problems-pie-t3839357
also i tried many apps, but instead of gmail but yet i didn't find any solution

Made sure it was off early on. No change.
The best way to describe my issue is that once the screen times out and has been off for at least about 5 minutes, notification sounds are delayed. It is sort of like the phone goes into a deeper sleep or something and then the problem arises. As soon as I use my fingerprint to wake the phone, all notifications blast through.
The delay can vary. Sometimes it is only 15 minutes or so, but often it is much longer. It is almost like once in a while an app wants to call home or something and to do so wakes up the phone just enough to allow some notifications through.
There also seem to be some issues with individual apps and notifications that may be fixed when a developer updates their app for Pie. For example, most apps notify immediately when the screen is on or within that first 5 minutes or so after the screen goes off. But since installing Pie, Kuna always has a delay of 5 to 10 minutes before notifying. Kuna does this 100% of the time. In fact if I have the phone awake, looking at the screen when walking out the front door, when the motion sensor is triggered, immediately there is a notification icon. But the sound notification is always delayed. This seems like an issue with Kuna and they are well know for being very slow with updates and fixes but eventually they do fix things. But the notification sound delays described in this thread do indeed seem like a system issue with Pie. Hopefully enough people will have the issue that Google will figure it out and fix.
I am having same issues after updating to Android P. At first, notifications came late about 5 min, but then they started to vary some coming in 15-30 minutes later. Can't figure out what is causing the time difference but either way I can't find a fix. I spoke with Google support and they had no fix as well.

Nope, they didn't mention anything about existing issues or being aware of the issue.
Any one found any solutions or fixes? I feel like my notifications are becoming even more delayed now and have also realized I'm not getting a lot of various notifications at all (through many different apps).
I am guessing you all are aware of this, and have tried, however I just found this recently and thought I would share for anyone that doesn't know.... Settings > Apps and Notifications > Advanced > Special App Access ..... Lots of options here with one of them being battery optimization for individual apps. After I upgraded to P, hardly any of my frequently used apps were given full battery use. Haven't played with all the other options there, however just granting apps full battery seemed to help me out.

One of the first things I tried was giving full useage, (no battery optimization) for all apps that I want notifications from. Did not help. Many other apps are still being optimized. I thought I had previously found a way to turn off all battery optimization but because I do have many apps in that list that are being optimized, I obviously did not. Right now I can't find a global setting to turn off battery optimization even though I thought I did before?
So I noticed this morning, that the main app/notification that's super delayed (5-10min after the event should have triggered) it doesn't happen when my phone is plugged in or i have the screen on in my hand. Even after going through all the battery save features and making sure this app is exempt from them, it still happens if the screen is off, or my phone is off the charger. super annoying. wish there was a fix for this already!

Verizon sent me a replacement because of this problem. I was apprehensive, but got a very nice re-furb. Still have the same problem, but I got a phone that is indicated as Verizon on the LG site. In developer mode, the bootloader unlock button works. I guess everything isn't bad. I sure hope Google straightens this out soon.

This happens only with Gmail on my phone - WhatsApp and Messages send instant notifications. Messages isn't optimized, the other apps are.
I can live with that, no big deal. Perhaps disabling battery optimization for Gmail would fix this, though.
Interesting note: I was talking to YouMail support today about something else but I asked about an issue where I get an email and transcript of a new voicemail but when I go to the YouMail app that voicemail is not shown until I drag down from the top of the screen to refresh the list. Support told me they are aware of this but can not do anything because it is a problem with the "latest Android version causing delay". So it is becoming a more widely known issue and hopefully Google will fix soon.
Thanks for all the feedback. Speaking of delay, I think I have tried just about every fix here and then some and still no luck. Wiping the phone did nothing as well. At this point, I would almost like to revert back to v8 to get this fixed.
I tried this supposed fix, (reply #51). https://forums.androidcentral.com/a...ifications-delayed-stopped-3.html#post6355714
No idea if it worked for me as when you restart the phone you need to do it again and less than 30 minutes after I went through the steps, my Pixel2 got the October update for Pie and required a restart!

Almost every Samsung android phone I've own has this problem after using it for a period of time. I've had the note 10+ since launch and the dreaded issue has return.
For some apps, I would tap the notification for the app. It would take a few minutes before the app will open.
Anyone has this issue?
I've had it on my note8, Note9 and now the note10+.
Hard reset will fix it but I don't want to reset and start again..
Continuation from note 8 thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-8/help/app-lag-clicking-notification-t3781356/page2
I don't have this issue.
Some people prefer to perform an hard reset as soon as they got the phone, before starting using it for the first time ; maybe they had some issues like yours at first, then wanted to avoid them.
Personally I didn't got any at first run.
That's odd, I have not experienced what you say in any of my samsung devices dating from my beloved S3 to this note10+
Yes..i am so confuse why it happens.. When the phone is new or just had a hard reset.. I don't have the issue.. Over time I always get it.
I also have this issue and it's incredibly annoying. Apps will take a full minute to open after being tapped on from the notifications banner. I too have had all but one Note product since the original (skipped the 2nd gen), but this is the first I can recall this issue happening. I'm also experiencing the issue of Google Play store apps getting stuck at 99% or 100% and not installing for 10 minutes or longer.
Is it all apps or certain apps only? Are you running stock or rooted? Exynos or Snapdragon? I haven't seen this issue shown up in a while, but have had it happen on Android devices in general in the past.

I don't have this issue, but as @dhorgas, more info would be helpful if it's a problem that can easily be fixed.
Two have the issue here, It could be a common app both of you are running.

It seems to be related to pendingIntent type notifications as if I tap a notifications that is a collapsed version of all the notifications, the app will load instantly. Have a look at this video I created:
(I didn’t include the tap showing on screen unfortunately, will attempt to do another video next time)
Initial tap was when the notification is collapsed for reolink and that will just open up the app. Happens instantly.
I close the app, expanded the notification and click on specific notification
The app doesn’t open until 8 minutes + later towards the end of the video.
Issue is happening across a fair few apps so I doubt it's common app..
I also have the issue of delayed notifications as discussed here:

Have the same issue with the play store. One way to speed it up is to force close play store... Then reopen it..
The app will redownload and should install this time.. Not always..
Quick update: Got fed up and did a factory reset and restored everything. Everything's working fine now. Obviously that's a last resort, but so far it's the only solution I've seen.

Wow. That would drive me crazy. Try backup, hard reset and restore like @Aaron J did and see if that fixes the issue.

Yes.. It will fix it.. But it's temporary..
The issue won't happen straight away.. It takes a few weeks/months and will return.. It has happened to me from the note 8, note 9 and now note 10+.
Initially everything will be good and fast.. Then eventually issue will return..
So need to try to get to the root of it..

Hope the issue doesn't return for you.. It always returns for me..
I have been dealing with 3 issues in my phone:
-delayed notifications
-slow app opening when tapping notifications
-apps installation through play store delayed after download
So recent development, I have been following this thread on Samsung forums regarding delayed notifications
https://eu.community.samsung.com/t5...ting-all-range-of-Samsung/td-p/738070/page/28
Have tried all the fixes which has given minor relief..
But the last suggestion to disable dynamic lock on windows 10 seems to have fixed the issue for me. Early days but all 3 issues have not reoccured yet today.. Usually my Samsung reminders will not show until I reboot. But today been good so far.
Apps install instantly and apps open from notifications straight away..
Will report back in a few days if anything changes..

So ... did this do it? I've been dealing with this for a LONG time. My Note 8 started this crap after the 9 'upgrade', motivated me to get a new Note 10. A few months later, the SAME exact problem is cropping up.
Slow notification reactions, stuck installs, notifications coming in repeatedly, notifications coming in late all at once.
If this isn't resolved soon, my next phone will definitely not be a Samsung.

Yes, my issue is gone now. Try removing windows dynamic lock and unpair your phone from your laptop if you have this setup.
If not, try slowly removing other Bluetooth devices.
For me, a Bluetooth yeelock also caused the delay to return..I have to reboot each time after using the lock to get it back to normal.
I also think a plantronics desktop headset was also causing the issue as I was getting the lag everytime I reach home since removing windows dynamic lock. I have since unplugged it and unpaired. So far been good for a few weeks now.
I heard this issue wasn't specific to Samsung but might be an Android issue..i think it started with Android 9.0 as you have mentioned as I never had this issue when I was using the note 8 before one ui.. But note 9 and 10+ both had issues..

I don't have Dynamic Lock set up, nor do any of my computers have bluetooth enabled. BUT I do have this cursed Plantronics PLT W8200 series headset that has been nothing but buggy since I got it. Not surprised if this is the cause. I just unpaired it - fingers crossed.
I hope that's it because otherwise, it's just 2 other pretty crucial devices I have paired.

Would be good to hear if this fixes your issue. Please make sure you reboot after unpairing too and if possible completely unplug the plantronics as I think it might try to connect to your phone still (but fail) and potentially still bring the issue back as my yeelock doesn't even show up as a paired device, the app just sends msg to it via bluetooth and I still have delays after using it.
Keep us updated...

So after the weekend of having the Plantronics headset un-paired, it *seems* better. Hopefully it stays that way.

Verizon: Ever since update last week for my Note 10+, the Message+ app has issues

Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ ... issue is occurring on my wife's phone as well as mine.
I installed the update last week (and then another one late last night). I used Message+ for texting and before whenever I got a text the phone would wake and go to the lock screen and show a preview of the text. Now it just stays on the Always On Display (A.O.D.) screen and only shows the little text icon on the A.O.D.
Also, edge lighting no longer works on the A.O.D. for some apps. Specifically the Message+ app. It worked before this update and now it wont show up when the phone is off/on the A.O.D. screen. It definitely worked before the update.............
I have uninstalled and reinstalled the apps. No fix. I even did a full factory default reset and that did nothing either.......
May be the apps, not optimized for android 10, I am waiting for all these issues to be ironed out before updating

It's been just over 3 weeks now and this issue is still persistent. Unable to find any help online and Verizon people are beyond useless. Ugh...

Does it work with other messaging apps? As for just the icon showing; have you looked at the information being shown on the lock screen and aod? You can edit what is shown detailed, icon only, etc.

Snapchat works fine. Groupme doesnt work neither does gmail. Those I dont care about really it just the text app not working is annoying as hell. I have the lock screen showing "detailed". I dont think there is a "detailed" option for the AOD though? It just shows the icon.
I can live without the edge lighting on AOD for texts but for it not to wake the screen and show me the preview on the lock screen is extremely annoying especially since it has always worked just fine.
I already did a factory reset as well.

It sounds like it's the app. I don't use the edge lighting. Nor do I use the AOD. However I've never had a notification issue. Personally I use Google messages due to the ability of having RCS have you gone into the notifications settings and changed the sound per app? Maybe made sure nothing was turned off. Also check to make sure those apps aren't getting frozen under device care.

Yeah I don't have an answer for you. I haven't had those issues. And don't know what to do help other then a completely fresh set up and see if it helps. If it doesn't. I'd try flashing the software on the phone again through Odin.
