Hello,
I have a lot of disconnections with android auto and my pixel 2 xl. I tested multiple usb cable but I have the same issue. I tested with another phone and I have no problem. Can you help me please ?
Thanks
Could be similar to this thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/pixel-2-xl/help/pixel-2-xl-charging-port-damaged-t3783638?nocache=1 . Had same problem with AA and also showed up with ADB and fastboot intermittently. Had to RMA for another phone.

Anyone else having issues connecting Pixel XL to Mac via Android File Transfer? I had no issues with my Note 5, but the Pixel XL will not stay connected. It shows that its connecting and then I get the pop up that reads: "If your device's screen is locked, disconnect its USB cable, unlock your screen, and then reconnect the USB cable." My screen is unlocked and all...
I had issues with AFT as well. Resorted to just pushing my content via ADB. Alternatively, you could use AirDroid and just copy the content over via Wi-Fi.
same here with Google Pixel and Macbook Pro Retina late 2014
I know in the past if you've had Kies installed on your system AFT wouldn't work. Have to remove every trace of it to get AFT to connect.
Works fine for me. I selected "transfer files" from the usb options when it popped up and relaunched AFT
We are facing something similar with Google Pixel on Mac environment with Android File Transfer. Same rig used with same cables & Samsung Galaxy S7 is working perfect.
Getting the same thing when connecting my Pixel XL to my MacBook Pro running Sierra
Same issue with my Pixel and 2015 Retina Pro running El Capitan. Any solution?
Am I the only one without an issue? Have you selected the correct setting on the phone?
I'm using the Pixel XL with El Capitan on a 2015 Macbook Pro Retina and a Cable Matters brand cable
.any help here from anyone?
In case the default Android File Transfer tool can't help you transfer/move files between your Pixel and Mac, here are a few alternatives you should try, both wired and wirelessly.

Adt transfers files... But not all on mac...u won't be able to transfer mp3s,bin etc filetypes...
for what its worth, works fine for me.
Had the same issue, removed all Samsung Stuff and Kies, and then still didnt work, found this article and did what it said and works perfect, basically the USB cable plugged into computer is default to be used as charging, http://alvinalexander.com/android/a...app-cant-access-device-storage-solved-working
No, I already know that you need to change your phone into transfer file mode. I think most people know that, you have had to do it for quite sometime now... I can't even remember when you didn't have to do this step. For me and many others it is not working.
My Pixel wouldn't talk to my Mac for the first few days. After that for some reason AFT started working and all is good now. Hope you get it working.
same problem, constantly errors during the file transfer, the files that actually make it on to the phone the apps dont read.

I am also getting it with my mac air and pixel xl. My work around has been airdroid for now.

The error I am getting is "Cannot replace file" "Cannot copy file"; I don't think this is same issue as what is reported here, so I opened a new thread. Thanks in advance for any insight!
Airdroid is garbage since the new 4.0 update.
Hi,
I loaded the pixel c release of remixos on my tablet shortly after it was launched. Overall, I'm very impressed with the stability of the device, but I have a couple of issues and I'd like to find out if I'm the only one experiencing this?
I've been mashing the OTA button, but I recently heard that the development of the pixel c remixos has been halted.
My two main problems are :
1. Inability to pair the pixel c Bluetooth keyboard. It says pairing and then just reverts to a ready to pair state after a minute or two. The keyboard worked fine under AOSP 7.0
2. Really flakey wifi connections on 2.4 and 5ghz.
Anyone else experiencing similar issues or have advice on how to fix it?
Thanks

Remix os is the best ROM for Pixel C, without any comparison.
I really hope that development didn't stop.
1. no problem with bluetooth keyboard
2. Wifi is probably a hardware issue since it is frequently mentioned in forums
I don't recall having WIFI or keyboard issues on the stock ROM.

I have had an issue with USB tethering and my Pixel 2 XL.
Whenever I enable the tether on the device it triggers Windows 10 to BSOD. I get KERNAL_SECURITY_CHECK_FAILURE.
I have tried unistalling and reinstalling the device drivers to no avail.
Anyone having luck USB tethering on Windows 10?
Thanks
I've had the same issue as well, this thread has been the only reference I've found to this exact problem. Have you managed to find any solution for it?

Have you tried this method ^?
Though I'm not sure if you can even get there since you crash
I've used pda net forever and have had no problem with my pixel 2 xl..
I have it through the foxfi app in the play store..

In the past always used PDA Net for USB tether, but nowadays I mostly wifi tether.

I just wanted to chime in to say I am also receiving this issue. I plug my Pixel 2 XL in, activate USB tethering, and Windows 10 blue screens. It happens every time.
I cannot perform the steps in the video linked above as, like I mentioned, my computers blue screens when USB tethering is activated.
PIXEL 3 XL USB 128 wont go to file transfer or android auto. Grayed Out... I had talked to google and they said it should work when do a rest of the phone which I did twice and still have issue and talked to them again and they say they see no real issues with it but I find threads all over about it and on pages they have but are in denial.. has anyone come up with an answer? I can charge my phone no issue with the USB C port but once plugged into a pc or a car I get nothing...is the hardware the issue or something in software? I have a second pixel 3 xl 64 and it works fine so not my pc or my car...
Hello All,
So long story short my 2018 model Pixel 2Xl suddenly stopped detecting my headphones nor it installed android driver when connected to PC. Ofcourse only good thing is it charges fine. Now since my phone warranty has expired I would like to try anything that could fix it. I already tried factory reset however of no help. So my question here is, is there any way I could install the driver binaries on my Pixel that could reset it? Now since my phone is not getting detected on PC except charging what option am I left with? Any way firmware change or reinstalling of drivers can be done through wifi or from within my internal storage? My mobile has stock firmware and it is not rooted as well. Any help is highly appreciated.
I had the exact same issue. Unable to plug into my PC and headphones not working. I used multiple laptops/desktops. All came back with the same Device Manager error stating that it was an "Unknown USB Device (Device Descriptor Request Failed). No matter what I would do it would continue to pop up on every single PC I plugged into. Tried different USB C cables as well. I was told a part of the board was fried.
I finally gave up and got a Pixel 4a 5g. I should mention I put in a new hard drive for my main PC and installed Windows. I plugged my Pixel 2 XL into my fresh install of Windows 10 and BOOM it started working again. I was able to unlock the bootloader and install a ROM as well. I just checked USB C headphone and they are working as well. I am not sure after testing so many variables why this was the resolution, but I am glad I found it.
I will note, in looking for the Device Manager error message I did find this.
Open your device manager. Click ‘View’ and then click ‘Show hidden devices’. Your Pixel 2 XL (or whatever phone you have) should be shown there and will be ‘greyed out’. Make sure your phone is unplugged, and then right mouse click on your Pixel 2 XL on your device manager and click ‘Uninstall device’.
Worth trying at the very least.

Great to know it worked for you. However for me I tried in my Windows PC as well as on my MAC and it doesn't work on both. Unfortunately my warranty as expired too so I have dropped an escalation to Google and awaiting response from their end. My Pixel 2 XL has never worked properly for more than 9 months from the date of purchase with USB C port already replaced once, screen replaced due to burn in, headphones replaced as it stopped worked etc. I have also heard many people informing about the port starting to work fine all of a sudden too. If Google provides free support well and good, if not will move to OnePlus maybe. Had enough of Pixel phones. I had the first version of Pixel XL and then bought this.
Use a sim ejector tool to pry out the dust and gunk from the type c port. Had issues with charging and usb connection, you may not be able to see it but there would be a lot of lint and dirt collected inside the port. cleaning it up fixes the issues.

Tried that too. There wasn't any dust as such but used a small paint brush to wipe inside throughly however didn't help. Any way to install the driver binaries via wifi or from within the phone rather than using a PC?

See my recent posts about my USB problems and replacing the internal USB ass'y. It didn't fix my similar problem though.
Cleaning the port is worth a shot. The SIM tool, a needle or plastic toothpick work great for this. I used a little alcohol too and the pad came out pretty dirty.
You can enable WiFi debugging/Wireless ADB in Developer Mode settings. You can then run commands in ADB. It won't let you unlock the bootloader with only WiFi though. That's what has me stuck.
I have the same problem and in my case the device has a sound bug that doesn't work at all, not even through the speaker, microphone or bluetooth. And the computer does not identify the cell phone or the device shows that storage option and only charges slowly. I don't know what to do help
