Pixel 3xl restart randomly - Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers

To who updated pixel 3xl to Android 12 beta 1
Anyone faced the issue that the phone from time to another it restarts randomly ?
If someone face it too please tell me .

Same here, no solution so far.

It is normal behaviour for Beta, even in 11 beta I had similar problems. It might be related to wallpaper as it always revert to original release wallpaper, but who knows.
So it is normal, let's wait for Beta 2

XL rebooting in 8 and 8.1 after beta program update

I'm not sure if this is an 8.1 bug as it seems it started on android 8, 48 hours ago but has gotten worse on 8.1 after the update overnight.
The last 3 days I was running Android 8 and the phone suddenly started to reboot a once or twice a day.
I've received the 8.1 upgrade notice last night because I'm apart of the beta program, so I started the upgrade.
the software updated to 8.1 last night... It wasn't smooth at all, the device rebooted 5 or 6 times during the automatic update.
When I woke up it was running 8.1 but the rebooting continues now, but happens more often... The phone has rebooted 4 times in the last 3 hours.
To make clear, the frequent reboot started a couple of days ago on Android 8 and has continued to 8.1
If the phone is left alone, it will not reboot, it'll sit, and not reboot....when you wake it you can use it.....but when i'm moving through any apps with normal movement, it seems to freeze for a few seconds and then either go back to normal or reboot.
whether it's pocketcasts, text messenger, or the google play store app, it will freeze for a moment, sometimes go back to normal, sometimes reboot.
I have sent the logs along with the details to the beta program and i'm waiting to hear from them.
Is there anyone else i might be sending this issue to
What might be wrong?
dd a reset and that seems to have solved the problem......running 8.1 and the reboots have stopped....we'll wait and see
Using pixel xl for almost 1 month with last oreo rom, 2 random reboots, i´m very disapointed with google, but to be honest i was expecting this, since google devices , especially last ones, are not reliable at all.
I've been in the beta program since I've got my Pixel. Only issue I've had so far is AirDroid is broken on 8.1 Beta. Everything else is working 100% that I do personally. YMMV
Today is my first real day testing battery life on Beta so I'll see how it goes.

Android 8.1 upgrade: screen freezing in camera app on device rotation?

Hi, All -- I've got two Pixel 2 XLs: one on Android 8.0.0 and one on the final released version of Android 8.1.0. On the Android 8.1 phone, when using the camera app, the screen will freeze briefly when the phone is rotated (portrait/landscape). But this doesn't happen on the phone that's still back on 8.0. Are other people seeing this change with the Android 8.1 upgrade? Or might something else be causing this issue on my Android 8.1 Pixel 2 XL? Thanks!
Just tried this out and yes I'm getting the same on 8.1
I've just did what you say and no, it doesn't happen at all on my Pixel 2 XL upgraded to Oreo 8.1.
Did you try factory reset?
interesting! Yeah, a factory reset seems to have fixed this issue on my Android 8.1 device. Fingers crossed that this'll stay smooth.
OK, I think I sorted this out. It's Meteor Swipe that causes the problem. It must be something related to its screen overlay function that, on the Pixel 2 XL running Android 8.1 (though not 8.0), causes the camera to stutter when the screen is rotated. The issue goes away when I add the camera app to Meteor Swipe's blacklist. I wonder if other apps that require accessibility access might cause this problem in the camera app.
Not seeing this behavior between my two 2XLs. Was in beta program with the first. Can't seem to get the second one to update to 8.1.

Android Auto and Pandora crashing

Ever since I believe around the 3rd Android 9 beta update, pandora kept crashing on my Android Auto. I was hoping the full "street" version of 9 released yesterday would resolve this but it didnt. I also noticed the screen on my car blacking out at times and then coming back on during android auto. The problem is I can go a song or two on pandora and then it stops and says pandora inaccessible on the screen and then a new song starts playing. Sometimes, it will cut off 3 songs in a row within the first minute of each song. Its really frustrating and I cant tell if its a pandora thing or android auto thing. Used to think it was a beta thing but thats clearly not it anymore.
I do keep my phone in my cupholder area and was wondering if when the proximity or light sensor gets changed in there, would that affect anything? It didnt before, Im just wondering if theres any new settings that could be making that change.
My original pixel xl did that on the betas but I replaced that phone with a pixel 2 xl over the weekend and I haven't noticed it happening with the new phone.

I even tried turning off battery management in the app and lowering the audio quality like I read in a couple other places but neither worked. Its still crapping out and then starting a new song.
Just saw an update from AA so hopefully that works. Ill report back.

Random reboots - started two days ago

My A2 lite started to do some random reboots
This only started a few days ago and mainly occurs at night. Another person's redmi note 6 pro also started with random reboots a few days ago.
This is very strange and most likely due to an app...
Anyone else has this problem?

Experienced one random reboot yesterday, since updating to stable pie (no random reboot with Oreo). My thoughts, pie not fully ironed out yet. And to add, the reboot happened when phone fully stock, without additional apps installed, only hotspot switched on.
Some app is crashing, try a factory reset

Question Pixel 6 Random Freezes & Rebooting

I am facing random freezing and reeboting issue with my pixel 6. It happens more than 7/8 times a day. Very annoying and Google is not responding to this issue. There are many similar complains like this in Google forum and there is no proper reply from Google. December update didn't fix the issue. Is it hardware issue or software? Help please.
Tried a factory reset? Are you rooted? Are you able to unlock the bootloader? If so, try flashing the full firmware image or Official Google Android Flash Tool.
If none of that helps, I'd exchange it with Google for a new replacement. Good luck!
Its a known bug https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/gboard-intermittent-freeze.4377931

My one freezes randomly and not specifically for any reason or for any apps.
Do you have the december update installed? Try to disable all your Accessibility Services from the settings.
[Update: A fix is coming] Google Pixel 6 owners are facing an annoying screen freezing issue
If you own a Pixel 6 or Pixel 6 Pro and are affected by the screen freezing bug, there’s a temporary workaround to resolve the issue.

Random rebooting seems to be a "common" Pixel 6 problem. Most were only able to fix it by getting a new device from Google, some were able to fix it with a factory reset.
Strangely enough, I had the same problems on my first Pixel 6 - then I got a replacement model, got the backup from my old phone (p4 xl) going (again) and never had any reboot problems. Then a couple days ago I rooted my Pixel 3 and transfered my files over from my main Pixel 6 Pro and got the same reboot problem on my Pixel 3 now (~about every 10 minutes of active usage). I found out that it's probably connected to the fingerprint scanner, since about every third time that I use the FP on my P3, the phone reboots. I'll probably try a factory reset on my P3, since I know that the phone worked without issue before. It was probably an unwise idea to get a backup from my P6 going, but then again, F*** Google for not giving us a decent file transfer system. If the only way to get a functioning product is to get a replacement or start with a clean slate, that's a joke in 2021.
That tells me that it's a software issue, but since it's hard to pinpoint/replicate and at least with some P6 Pro users even a factory reset was not able to help, you might have to get a replacement model.

Even vibration?
I wondered that as well. I also turn off animations. The phone switches screens faster and the fingerprint scanner works better sans animations.
May be a coincidence but.....
I have never had this problem until today.
I usually have animations off. Set them to 0.5 today and my phone froze twice.
I've turned animations off again.
(I also have accessibility services off and have not changed that)
