Hey, I was wondering if anyone has RCS from VZW working on the pixel 2 XL?
Saw on a Droid life post, the comments section, someone said there 2xl was working with RCS on VZW.

I've been looking. Haven't seen anything yet ....
If you open Android Messages, go to settings, open advanced, and see the "Chat features" options, you probably have RCS working. I'm on Sprint and this is what I see.

I don't believe Verizon has announced any timeline for RCS support on pixel 2 yet, only pixel 3.

Verizon had said Q1 2019 a few days ago.

I get the option on my pixel 2xl, but if I try to activate it just spins forever, saw some guides about disabling carrier services, but that didn't help.

So I got my Note 4 on the 22nd and I'm loving it so far.
I went to try Google Wallet this morning and I could NOT get the tap and pay to work even though the app and phone said it was all set as my default.
ISIS - I don't yet have a card type that they will allow to add in the app.
Curious to see what results you all get? Thanks.
Happy Note 4 days!
No, but it will never work for me. The type of account I am on does not permit it to work.

I actually installed gw and right on the main screen tap and pay. I went into it and it still had my cards from a year ago just selected default. Also was one more thing I saw in settings to select which as default.

Most people would go into developer options to see if OEM unlocking can be turned on.
https://www.technipages.com/google-pixel-how-to-enable-usb-debugging
There should also be a SKU on the back of the phone, and Verizon lists:
G-2PW2100-021-A or G-2PW2100-021-B
I think it's also listed on the Product/Variant line in fastboot, and this image is probably the Google version:

Yeah can't flip the bootloader switch so I'm screwed lol

You could look at it this way--if you have to be stuck on stock the Pixel is likely the best phone to be stuck on stock with.
Agree, thanks guys

See the photo below. My phone is prompting me for an update, but I'm on Oreo/8.0.
Has this happened to anyone before?
My phone is an unlocked Verizon.

Seems Verizon is pushing an OTA that hasn't shown on either the OTA or factory images page.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/pixel/how-to/heard-verizons-pixel-software-update-t3671795
Don't worry. Happens with me. In fact the update is for September security patch in Oreo dispatch the notification. Just go ahead
Thanks. But if I have updates turned off in my settings, how is this happening?
Sent from my Pixel XL using Tapatalk
Step 1 of the update fails for me.
Just woke up to this exact scenario and was super confused as well.
i took it on Verizon stock Oreo and updated my security to Sept and all good
saw same notification this am. is a little confusing but it applied the sept security update. google store pixel xl on at&t.

Not 100 percent confirmed that it is only VZ, but it is for VZ for sure. Others is unknown at this point.

I've only had my Pixel XL 2 for about a month. It was given to me and I know it's an older phone, but I like it a lot so I'm going to use it a while.
Anyway, playing around with the radios and APN's my phone says that there's access to 5G, but I didn't think this was a 5G phone. So is it possible to get 5G with the Pixel 2 XL? I'm on T-Mobile at the moment. We have 5G in our area with T-Mobile.
So like I said I'm curious if I can get 5G on this phone and why it says 5G recommended in my network options and why there's "NR" radio options in the radio/band settings menu.
Thanks for any insight into this!

No way you'll get 5G without the hardware.
That it shows in your settings must be a bug - probably a T-Mobile bug. It is not listed on my phone.

Sorry I've taken so long to reply to this. And yeah I thought the same thing also, that the SD 835's modem doesn't have the necessary hardware to get 5G. I have a Verizon SIM in my Pixel XL 2 now as of the time of writing this, and the NR option is still available in my radio menu. So idk if it's a T-Mobile bug or just a bug with my phone. It still gives me the option for 5G recommended in my system wifi/network/bluetooth menu also. But ya know, never connected to 5G so idk ya know? But thank you for replying!
Currently have a oneplus 9 with magisk root on AT&T. I've been using inlus phones for a long time now.
How are you US at&t users liking the rog 6? Any connection issues?
Root is a must for me but it's looks retry simple to root this phone. Thanks for any help!
As long as you get the US version you should be good. I've been using it for a couple weeks and get really good 5G coverage all throughout the midwest states. Previously I had the rog 5 flashed from CN>WW and it sucked so just make sure you're getting model AI2201.

I didn't have to change any APN settings I was able to just toggle 5G on luckily. Here are my defaults incase it helps you though.
