Thank You very much for your answers!
Are you on Android 9.0 final release?
Have you guys tried to factory reset?
Thanks

Yeah, it hasn't worked for a while. I've been using P since beta 2 and I factory reset every single beta update including the now released final Pie.
Don't bother factory reseting, it won't fix it.

Thanks man! I was getting worried it might be some kind of bug during the update process, and I was on the verge of factory reseting the phone!
:good:
Have you noticed any battery improvements since the update?
Since Oreo 8.1.0 that I've noticed that the battery doesn't last as long. In my case I've noticed a 25 to 30% decrease in battery life!

I haven't noticed battery improvements for any phone that ever claimed better battery. I always have to top up every phone I've had after work. I'm a heavy user tho, but no phone has ever given me "amazing" battery. This phone is no different. I've had A LOT of different phones too.

I'm experiencing the same issue. Also experiencing double notification sounds for some incoming messages. Mostly annoying but would like to see a fix.
Messages version: 3.4.048, last updated 8/7/18

I've been running the beta from the start without this problem on my Pixel XL. Just updated my wife's Pixel XL and she reported the problem to me. It wasn't until I enabled and disabled this feature that I had this problem. Now I can't turn it off. It seemed to start after installing the Digital Wellbeing Beta. Wouldn't that be ironic.

I got an update for Messages last night and now I'm finally seeing suggested replies in the notification shade. Also...now the notification sound when sending is working but it's not using the 'swoosh' type sound and instead is using the sound I have picked when receiving messages.

Yeah I just got the pie update on my phone (Pixel 2 XL) and I can't seem turn off outgoing notifications. I went to settings and clicked that setting off. It still will not turn off. I never even knew my phone had this function until this update but it is driving me crazy.

Just switched to Pie on my Pixel 2 XL two days ago and got the messages update as well.
I have the same issue as a few others have mentioned, I now have an outgoing sound when previously I did not and there is no way to turn it off. The switch in Messages to turn it on/off does nothing and it is the same sound as the 'received' message notification.

Well I got it to stop but can't get it to turn back on. I went into settings -> apps -> messages (app) -> storage and cleared both the storage and cache. Now it no longer sends out going message sounds. The problem is I can't turn it on or off. Lucky for me I just want it off.

Silly question: does clearing cache and storage delete all of your messages? This happened immediately after I upgraded my Pixel 2 XL to Pie....like everyone else.

Sadly it was only a temp fix. Today the outgoing sound came back.

Connection problems on Huawei watch

Hi friends,
when I turn on my huawei watch it doesn't receive notifications from phone but it is connected.
Sometimes I resolve with the phone restart.
Have you some ideas?
Many thanks.
Same here. Need to reboot watch to get them again.
Mike
Is it a problem of the watch?
Dang just came here for same issue. Only way to get it back is reset watch. It's happened 3-4 times. Not sure what causes it. My watch was in theater mode before I go to sleep, maybe being in theater mode to long causes it,? Just reset phone yesterday, today no notifications......dang everything was perfect on this watch. Now this....bummer.

We see that you have tried a factory reset, yet your problem with your Huawei smartwatch persists. We suggest you call Huawei support at 1-888-548-2934 for further assistance. (SP)
Problem showed up after google play services update. You need to install older version to have it working again.
Mike
Hi friends, since few days my smartwatch is working fine.
What do you think?
Google fixed a bug.

this works, but temporarily ... Google Play Services updates invisibly sneak in and there's no way to block them ... you can install older version, but a few days or hours later the update will find you again ... you know when they sneak in because battery life drops and you get lots of connection hiccups until they are done AND you've rebooted your phone+watch a few times for the updates to settle in comfortably with everything their roots tap into. (warning: interrupting this process with uninstalls or factory resets starts the process over = ugly cycle and unhappy owner)
expect your phone or watch (or both) to 'have sick days' after flashing AND every month or so when Google Play Services gets updated on watch or phone (or both)

I had the same issue, but i think It is related with the face i was using, uninstalling any 3rd party face apps and only using the Factory ones solved the problem for me.

I found it wasn't great in the dark, I assume it uses the light sensor to determine if in pocket etc

I have noticed the same thing. It isn't 100% consistent.
FWIW: Mine seems to be very consistent if I triple tap. Perhaps the first tap wakes it up if it's in a deep sleep?
Hopefully fixed in the December update.

OK, still not working consistently. I don't get what's happening to make it randomly not work. When it doesn't work, it doesn't matter how many times I tap it does NOTHING. Then if I unlock it with my fingerprint and shut it off again it immediately lights up the ambient display like I just tapped on it again.

I can't tell you the "why". But I can tell you that mine does work consistently if I tap it 3 times. Something's different in our devices, or our setup....
Edit: not 5 minutes after posting this, my XL started randomly not responding to dttw.

Makes no sense. I'm glad we are seeing the same issues though, at least it's consistent there
I'm having the same exact issues. Tap not working consistently and sometimes the lift doesn't work either. Hmm.
It's worth noting I had the same issues with the Elemental kernel before this ddtw option was available. The ddtw option was just as inconsistent for me.
Neither working at all for me.
Update: Seems to be working fine now.
if you have a screen protector that might cause the issue
if it still doesnt work without screen protector reflash the factory image
The update seems to fix the issue.
Update: the issue still there. But much less frequent
The is double tap to wake? Is this with a custom kernel? Otherwise I didn't know this was an option. How do you activate that feature?
I have noticed that is works better if the screen is locked. So if your phone doesn't lock for 5 or so minutes, it may not work until after that time. Try to set your phone to "Power button instantly locks" and then try it. Mine was not working at all, but when I locked the device sooner, it started to work consistantly. Might not help you, but fixed it for me.
Works fine for me, do you have a tap on?

December OTA. Same location as other Moves/ gestures.
FWIW: what I've noticed is that if my phone is sitting on something, DTTW works 100% of the time. If I have it in my hand, it's very sporadic.

Loud beep when call ends

Running total stuck with latest updates. Anyways, whenever I end a call I notice a loud beep which sounds like its coming from speaker phone but the phone is not on speaker. Also, callers on the other end are always like "huh" when I talk. Some say it sounds muffled, but not always.

Are you using any kind of screen protector or case that could be interfering with the microphone? If not (I know people don't like to hear this) have you tried a factory reset? Whenever things start acting wonky on your phone a factory reset should always be near the top of the things that you try. It's easy for drivers to get corrupted over time and an accumulation of updates and a factory reset ends up solving a lot of issues, even if it is inconvenient.
I to get that beep when i end my call. I am on the latest DP4.

Using a glass protector and a peel case that is super thin. I once had the phone rooted and running a custom rom. Was having troubles with people always saying "huh". I bought the HTC u11 and set this pixel xl back to stock to sell it. Decided the u11 wasn't for me and took it back and started using the pixel and took the latest update from a factory reset. Now getting the loud beep!
Same here. DP4
Yes this is happening to everyone who is using Snapchat. Just go to permission settings in Snapchat and untick the telephone / phone permissions. It will get fixed. Weird but just give a try it will work. Or uninstall Snapchat. Please reply if this helps you.

Can confirm. This happens on my stock Pixel running 7.1.2. It's like the phone switches to speakerphone for the last .25 seconds of the end call beep.

Thanks for this. I uninstalled Snapchat as I could not find the setting you are referring to? The uninstall did take the loud beep away. I installed it back and beep is back lol..just a test. But I looked through permissions and seen nothing with a tick for phone?

Yeah I figured out lol. For some reason I was looking in the snapchat app settings. But yeah I can confirm this fixed the loud beep. Thanks!
Like everybody has realised this is not a problem in the phone, it's because of the Snapchat update, so best solution is to disable the 'Telephone' permissions for the Snapchat app.
Unfortunately, the beep came back and the phone permission is unchecked. Must be just snapchat. I'm going uninstall it for a few days and see what happens!
Pixel XL here, unchecked Telephone permission for Snapchat took the beep away for me. It hasn't returned ...yet
The beep has returned for me, I'm thinking it's because there may have been an update. The telephone permission was still unchecked so I've uninstalled Snapchat and the beep has disappeared again.
I haven`t Snapchat, but i have f***ing beep on my phone.
I've got the beep on original XL and now XL2. Contacted Google and they are going to RMA the XL2. I guess we will see if new one still has beep. Google customer service is clueless. The first girl said they are working on it and fix will be in next update, I asked her where she is getting her info. from and she couldn't come up with anything. BTW never had Snapchat so that's not the issue with my phones.
Hey guys on a Pixel 2 here and having this issue. It's extremely annoying. Uninstalling Snapchat did nothing for me.
I had this issue when i was on att. Had to call them and tell them turn off volte. Then the beep went away. Just my two cents. Att doesn't support volte on pixels so something was happening between the device and their network.

Can Someone Else Running Pie Test FindMyDevice?

With my phone set to silent, using Find My Device / Android Device Manager from another phone or PC, is unable to remotely force a ring of the phone, rendering this functionality useless. This is a real problem, and I wanted to make sure this issue wasn't just isolated to me.
Many thanks in advance!

Just tested. Set phone to silent (No vibrate. Ring volume off). Executed find my device from PC. Selected Play Sound. Phone started ringing loudly immediately...
Google Pixel XL. Verizon. Android 9.0. Stock Rom. Unlocked. Rooted with Magisk 16.7 (1671) / (Magisk Manager 5.8.3)
To clarify, you set it with the Do Not Disturb function? That's where I'm having the issue.

Just retested and my phone immediately started ringing. This time I used the Do Not Disturb function to silence the phone. (Verified that setting worked by calling the phone and no vibration or ring.) But the phone immediately rang on command via Android Device Manager / find my phone.
Also - probably not relevant but I upgraded to September security release this morning as well. My first test was on the initial Pie (August) release. DND test was on September release.
Many thanks for the effort and detailed response. Glad to hear it's just me, and probably a glitch that the September release hopefully captures.

Phone will no longer vibrate

When I got my device, the vibration was strong. Now I have no vibration whatsoever. All settings are good. I can't even get haptic feedback. I searched in Google and saw a couple others with this problem. Sounds like a hardware issue to me. Anyone else experiencing this yet? SM-N975F/DS
Dial *#0*# and run vibration test. That should tell you if it's hardware. If it works I would reset it, if it doesn't I would sent back.

Neat trick. No it doesn't work. I've been hearing many more cases of this popping up. I suspect there'll be many more to come.
Yeah, same to me. I was so convinced that mine is an isolated case that I did not even thought to search for similar threads.
Mine does not work either when running Samsung test trick (*#0*#)

Any answers?
So my note 10+ started doing this this morning. I do the phone test and it vibrates, but is weaker. Keyboard vibrate doesn't work. Notification vibrate doesn't work, nothing else vibrates. Not sure what is going on.
Edit: looks like something turned my vibration sensitivity way down. Working now!
No problem on my N975F/DS with vibration after official Android 10 update. Vibration test, keyboard feedback, vibrate on phone call also work as before...
@OnnoJ same problem, after update, vibration stop working... altough it could be that it didnt work before i am not 100% sure
