"Change your phone number?" notification appears each time I boot - Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers

This surely isn't Pixel-specific, but I figured I'd ask here before jumping to a more general forum...
Since I got my new Pixel XL, I always get a push notification from Google Play services a minute-or-so after boot up titled, "Change your phone number?" Clicking on the notification takes me through a wizard that first requests my password, then asks for my "new" phone number. (Mind you, my phone number has never been changed.) After completing the previous steps, the notification disappears — until I reboot. Then it reappears.
I tried rebooting after clearing the cache for Google Play + Google Play Services, but the notification still appears. I also tried removing my recovery phone number, rebooting, and using the notification's wizard to re-add the number. No dice.
Anyone experience a similar issue?

Try logging out of your Gmail, go HERE, do whatever it says, and then make sure it is YOUR phone number for your Gmail recovery.
After youre done, log back in on your phone, and you should be good

Removing and re-adding my Google account didn't fix the issue.

Did you do any of the other stuff that he pointed you to. There's more to do then just remove and then add back your account.

Sorry, although I didn't mention it, I did try it. I sort of list it in the OP as one of the steps I tried before posting here — although I did try again while following the instructions provided by noidea24.
I ended up blocking notifications from Google Play Services as a temp fix, but nothing I've tried thus far has seemed to truly resolve the problem. I also reached out to Google's Customer Support, but am still waiting for their specialist to reach out..

Btw, I appreciate you both taking the time to chime in on this issue! Although it's not a breaking issue, it's been really annoying ?

Hey, did you ever work out how to fix this? I'm having the same issue and it's pretty annoying!

Same issue on my end. Nexus 6p worked fine, but then just switched to Pixel XL, using the transfer-to-android-phone feature. This "change your phone number" message appears after each reboot for me. My gmail recovery phone has remained the same, and it matches the phone number on the Pixel XL (same as Nexus as well, but I swapped sims upon setup).
EDIT: should note pixel on android 8, and 6p was on 7.1.2

I'm having the same issue after moving from a 6P to a Pixel 2 XL. Signing out and setting up my account recovery option hasn't helped. I've reached out to Google support, but so far no luck.
EDIT: Clearing cache and user data for Google Play services appears to have done the trick. Several reboots and no further notifications.

I'm having the exact same issue since switching to the Pixel 2 XL. I've cleared cache and user data for play services multiple times, but this comes up about once a week for me.

same issue on Pixel 2
I have had this problem since I got my Pixel 2. totally not phone-breaking but really anoying. I reached out to support on this and they had me do a factory reset. when that did not solve the issue, they directed me here. I still have my Nexus 6P, and I DID see that notification show up once after I re-updated my phone number on my Pixel 2, but it hasn't shown up again on the 6P. Still appearing on every reboot of the Pixel 2 though. like annoying clockwork.

Access permissions with Nougat

Not sure if anyone else has run into this problem since upgrading to Nougat but I wanted to throw it out there in case someone has noticed it or has any suggestions.
Every time I restart my phone, app permissions are reset. Notifications revert back to stock. Camera asks for storage permissions. Calendar needs access to accounts etc. It's hasn't gotten me frustrated enough to reflash but if anyone else has had this experience or has a suggestion I am willing to try it.
My HTC One M9 only recently got the Nougat update (within this month, March 2017). I too have been plagued with access permissions being randomly forgotten at start up. The most annoying being Gmail and Calendar, but I too have had Camera asking for them to be allowed too. Very very annoying.
Since the Nougat update I have had a strange problem with Gmail, even when permissions have been correctly set. The phone completely forgets the two Gmail accounts that I use. I decided to try to uninstall the app but it takes you back out of the updates to the factory installed level. Then when I tried to put my two Gmail accounts in the Google account option was frozen, just could not add them. I finally decided that HTC Sense might have something to do with it! So I disabled it, then re-enabled it and Gmail account setup suddenly responded with my two accounts already showing! So I have now gone to Google Play Store to download the latest Gmail updates and it all appears working. But for how long?
What has HTC done with its Nougat update? The phone was once stable, now its an unreliable mess!

Same issue same phone, I triedclearing cache from TWRP, doesn't work. Are you rooted? I am systemless root with Magisk, so I have a feeling it could be due to this.

Good to hear from you, especially as you are a fellow sufferer.
I have a stock phone, not rooted at all. Sadly I gave up my "nerd" hacking a few years ago. I prefer not to mess these days and stick with what the manufacturer supplies.
However, I still find it odd that no-one else has reported this, but you and I. I am now convinced there is a bug with HTC's tailoring of Nougat. And I believe the reason is that no-one reports it is because they leave their phone on all the time, even when charging. I always close the phone down at night and put it on charge overnight. It seems the complete restart triggers this behaviour. It doesn't do it every time though. I even wondered at some stage if it was simply app updates being applied, as the Gmail, Calendar and other popular apps are often being fiddled with (sorry, enhanced) by Google. However, I also have had the problem at start of day, even after no updates have been applied.
It is very annoying. I wonder if I should try never switching the phone off completely to see if the permissions remain then? What do you think?

So I found my issue was due to a encrypted SD Card which constantly resets permission. So what I did was I formatted my SD Card and replace with existing backed up data from the computer, and it worked.

I've noticed the issue, for sometime now and I've been updated to Nougat since day 1. My phone never sleeps so I didn't noticed. It's pretty annoying. Will try the SDCard formatting and see. I'll let know how it goes.

gmail sync problems (even in pie)

Hello
as far as i saw
and i research there's no solution right now for ages of the sync problem of Gmail app (or it is the android it self), there is any application that can over it so i can get really notifications on time without any delay like the Gmail app?
it can be at Gmail delay till i open the screen , till now i tried all the available solutions including full wipe of the device and install from scratch, yet the problem there, so i thought maybe to move to another app that can do the same sync without delays.
thank you

Does your issue extend to other phones other than the Pixel? You have posted this same issue several times over a long period of time. You don't mention that your carrier is Swisscom, or consider that to be a contributing factor. What phone did you have before the Pixel.... was it the N6P? Whatever phone it was, did you have the same issue? I'd have to go back and look at my messages but I am pretty sure we had a conversation, you did wipe your phone, Gmail sync time is not adjustable, and maybe you should try/test a different carrier or chalk it up to your location? When you "wiped" your phone did you fastboot flash a full image leaving the wipe switch (-w) in the flash-all script in place or did you remove it?

yes, i fully wiped the phone.
second, it was from day zero with new device - pixel 2 xl.
thered, ot was also with n6p, also, the wipe was a flash of full image leaving the wipe switch (-w) in the flash-all script in place
and the issue is with WiFi so the carrier here is not a factor.
and like the other posts, i think it's android thing and not carrier/isp thing

Well, ok but if I had two different new phones from two different manufacturers (across multiple versions of Android) exhibit the exact same issue, I would conclude differently than you have. Best of luck to you, I know this must be frustrating.
I actually installed Microsoft Outlook because I have, or had, this same problem with Gmail, and the Outlook notifications work. The only thing is there seem to be more notifications since it doesn't screen message priority the same way. Although, after the update to Pie, and a factory reset, the notifications on Gmail have improved to where I took the accounts off of the Outlook app. However, the phone originally seemed to do notifications just fine and then one day just didn't, so we'll see how it goes.
If I have my ipad on and/or my old Note 4, or Nexus 5X on, they'll often show the notifications, while the Pixel 2XL won't. In fact I keep them around because sometimes they're the only way I catch something in time.
I also started having problems with calendar notifications on the Pixel 2XL many months back. I think it has improved after Pie, but seems hit and miss. Again, my prior phones show them just fine.

Little late on the reply, but yeah, the notifications work with Outlook. Which is much better than Gmail if they aren't. But, as I said before, my Gmail came back to life after the last update, so I only have my Hotmail account on Outlook now. Outlook app does tend to show more alerts than Gmail app.
i did also tried the edisson email and it's quit fast than gmail itself

Google App not opening

Hi,
Google App has suddenly stopped opening in the non-rooted 5t. Please check the attached video. What should I do?
Thanks
Bump..........
Same issue. Checked a lot of forums.. no fix yet, just temporary work arounds. Uninstall or clearing data. But only Works for a day.
I have the same thing......
And it's working again as of this morning!
I'm having this issue and it's driving me mad, the device has FamilyLink on it so I cannot turn off device administrator because all of the Google Account dialogs are broken, can't clear data, what a mess. I'm currently 80% sure I'll need to factory reset (if I even can!)
I was thinking I could maybe get into recovery but it wants a password that I apparently don't know. I tried my google password, my PIN, switching my PIN to a password, and nothing could get me in :s
(Edit 4/13: Got into recovery by removing the screen lock entirely, wiped the phone.)
Google App not opening & news feed not showing in Bing
Hi,
So, the Google app is not working in apparently all 5t phones-
https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-5t/help/google-app-t4060959/post82241813#post82241813
Tested in my friend's phone also
Since the past few days news feed in Bing app has also vanished. But it works in every other phone besides op. Why is this issue happening only in oneplus phones? I have sent the devs logs 2 times but no action has been taken. Never ever a op phone again.
Thanks

Question Google's Messages stuck on "trying to verify" in chat features activation menu

Never had an issue with this app doing this before, but here we are. I've made sure my number was correct, and even added the Messages app to MagiskHide (which I've never had to do before). It still is stuck. Eventually it gives up trying to verify, but tapping the button just repeats the same issue again. Any ideas?

It's really annoying I've had this before. What I did I'd clear data cache in the messages app restart phone then do same again delete data cache then open messages app and try again. If that fails then you have to turn chat off for 7 days don't try turning chat on within the 7 days otherwise it resets to 7 days again. It's a right pain in the but.
I wish I had a answer for you. I was having the same issue on stock, switching to global, switching to eu, etc. Just a couple nights ago I installed magisk and no modules and left my phone alone for a bit (maybe a hour?), When I picked it back up I had 10 encrypted messages I couldn't read come in from a friend that must have came in over the past couple weeks. It was just random.

I tried Dale's suggestion, clearing data and cache and rebooting the phone. After a minute it popped up the message "enabling chat features, we'll let you know when it's ready." Checked the settings 15 minutes later, and it said "Trying to verify..." STILL but the button to manually verify was usable.
This sucks.
This had happened to me ever since I got the phone and since my carrier is Verizon, It didn't work right out the gate and tried so many different solutions.
then I read that it could still be linked to your old phone so i put my sim card back and then turned off features and then popped it back to the OP and then just left the messages app run in the background and then it suddenly said chat features enabled.
I don't know if this will help you but it worked for mine.

I've had multiple issues with apps not sending OTP codes or being able to log in completely, and I even think I've had the same issue you are having when I had "dns.adguard.com" set as my private dns setting. Also, if you use AdAway, that could cause the issue. For some reason I have to disable AdAway to use the Amazon app. Weird.

Oh yep, in fact I had another thread about that. Turns out the new AdAway seems to inadvertently block a lot of things. Try adding "*amazon*" (without quotation marks) to the whitelist. PayPal was another I needed to add to the whitelist. I also added Google to see if it'd work for this, but nah... No such luck.

Thanks for the Amazon tip! I was trying to figure it out for the longest time. Even tried the hard way of adding it a long time ago. Just got used to disabling it to use the app or using Amazon through a browser.
It always takes a minute for my chat features to be enabled. Whenever I get a new phone, I always get the message saying "chat features are unavailable for this device" then after a few hours/days, the pop up says that they're ready. I think I leave Messages open in the background. Never had to disable it on the previous device. T-Mobile user here.

Sure thing, glad I could help. If anything, though, you should thank @terlynn4 for that whitelisting suggestion.
In my case this has been going on for a good few days. I've done websearches and researched all the possible causes and solutions I could find, but nothing has worked in my case. Yet. I think the main issue is that I'm not getting the authorization code that Google sends via a short-code service text or whatever those are called.

Usually when I don't receive the code, it's because AdAway or private DNS settings as stated before. But since you're not using any of those, I'm not sure what else would be preventing from sending the code. Is there any way you can use the Messages for Web feature, bring up your messages on PC, send the code that way and see if it comes up on the web?
I had the exact same issue as you, the issue was that Verizon still had my old phone associated with my account. Verizon support asked my for my iccid (16 digit number physically printed on the sim card), and after they associated it with my new phone I received the backlog of all the sms from short codes that I had missed and rcs verified after 15 minutes and a reboot.

LMAO, was that what it was? Funnily enough, now that you mention that, that might be the case for me as well. I had recently jumped from a OnePlus 7T to the 9 Pro, and everything had transitioned smoothly, other than this.

I had the exact same issue on verizon, but with a globel version. Wouldnt recognize the phone at all. After calling, they pushed me to tech support. Because the phone isnt in their system, the guy had to take an IMEI from another CDMA-Less phone, and enable the CDMA-Less feature. Then he put my IMEI back. Rebooted, and got 2 days worth of texts, and chat features enabled instantly.
The guy said there's a chance that "cleaners" will comb through accounts and reset it, but if it happens, I just have to do the same thing again.

Good morning. Does anyone have any idea how I can solve the problem I have with the google dialer? When I am called, it takes a long time for the screen to turn on while the sound is ringing and it is generally slow to show who is calling .... I have tried to clear the application cache .... I have checked that irrelevant applications do not have access to the phone application but nothing .... Is there a solution? Thanks
I have the same issue, it actually started with my Pixel 4 XL. Back then I thought maybe it's just getting old. Now I'm having the exact same issue with my P6P. Tried a factory reset thinking it might have been something that migrated with my backup but that did not help.
I'm chiming in only to say I haven't seen this problem, and hope you figure it out. Not rooted? No custom kernel?
Not rooted and no custom kernel, been considering those as a solution
I never tried the google dialer. Didn't trust the phone enough to put a sim in it until I had self-built google-free aosp (now grapheme) installed. I have not experienced this with aosp dialer.

Did you ever solve this? Not even a factory reset seems to solve it for me

Which update is your phone on? November or December? If November, maybe try manually flashing the December update, potentially removing the "-w " so that it doesn't wipe your phone.

I'm on the December update, but had it even on the November build
When I open the Google dialer and click on the button to pop up the numbers it's very slow to open up

When you factory reset, did you test the Google dialer without restoring any of your old apps or data?
If the January update doesn't fix it for you when it comes out, I'd consider trying that.
Tried before restoring the apps, but I did restore my contacts and SMS. Same result. Could it be something related to my contacts (around 1400 contacts)?

I doubt it, although I "only" have 635 contacts. Right now I'd say everything is suspect, however. You've got to eliminate every possibility.
I might suspect the number/size of SMS before the number of contacts, but it's worth eliminating both at the same time just to see. Or, as I said, wait until the late January update, but if you still have the problem then you'd have to start from scratch yet again to eliminate those possibilities.

Thanks, will give it a shot after the January update drops
My best guess is that this delay happens when you have got paired an android wear with your phone. Just for testing, I paired amazfit gtr 3 pro with my P6P and this delay does not occur.
But at the same time, If you are running aosp rom, this delay doesn't happen with the dialer even with android wear paired. Strange

Interesting thought, I don't have an Android wear watch paired but I have a fitbit Versa. I haven't had this issue since the January update plus a full wipe.
I had a seperate theory which is related to the number of Google accounts I have on my phone (I had 4 before wiping). I'll keep an eye on it and try to unpair the watch if it re-occurs.

Well well well, I acted as per your theory and deleted all my google account except one that is linked to contacts and I am experiencing quite instant call-in and call-out screen and the contacts also show almost instantly.
Its a shame that android is google's own product and these issues (having more than google account) jeopardize the whole experience. I have read a lot of posts on reddit and other forums for the the same issue and all what google guys suggest is factory reset which is not a pleasant way and the problem persists after that.
Maybe I am too quick to give my feedback and this issue resurfaces even with 1 account. Will keep an eye on that and will post my further findings.

I think it's confirmed. I've added two more accounts and the call screen is now back to taking forever to showup when I get a call

Yeah I reconfirm it as well, no delay in call screens if having 1 Gmail account only.
Culprit is Google phone app I guess, may be it goes through all accounts to search n display the contact that cause this delay. I have tried Google phone app on samsung s21 ultra too n there is same delay with having more than 1 accounts while Samsung own dialer app doesn't suffer this issue.
