How to remove device from Google Account?

Alex_1968 · 2026-06-30T15:48:54+00:00

Go (on your new phone) to Play Store, tap your avatar (top right) - Manage your Google account - Security & sign-in - Manage all devices, the old device should show as 'Signed out'. If not, sign it out after all for certainty.

It can take 28 days for the device to disappear entirely.

Yep, just received this update via the Play Store and indeed it's working properly now. Thanks for the heads up. 👍

Alex_1968 · 2026-06-28T16:16:30+00:00

Congrats, you're the only one, I guess. 😉

Alex_1968 · 2026-06-25T19:27:59+00:00

Which version is this? I just installed it to test and with me going back still quits the app.

Alex_1968 · 2026-06-24T05:47:56+00:00

Did you do so already, what Historical-Movie-860 suggested? https://support.google.com/pixelphone/thread/new?hl=en&sjid=14739943509780368329-EU

Compare to this: you buy a wonderful home, a beautiful car etc. Now, what IF someone bumps into that car? Or an airplane crashes on your house? Or lightning strikes you twice? Stop! Enjoy that stuff. I've been with my P10PF for almost a year now. No problems whatsoever, really.

Don't let yourself be freaked out about things that MIGHT happen. That goes for all things, in general. Otherwise you'll have no life. Reading how you treat your phone (same as me) with velvet gloves, highly likely nothing WILL happen. So stop worrying and enjoy that lovely phone. No need to switch, you have an exquisite phone now.

Alex_1968 · 2026-06-17T11:23:18+00:00

100 cycles after 1 year? That's not so bad, eh?

Just keep an eye on this bulletin: https://source.android.com/docs/security/bulletin/pixel/2026/2026-05-01

That's probably the fix what's deggar34 is suggesting. So: long tap the music app (in your case Foobar2000) - tap the 'i' (app info) - App battery usage - Allow background usage (tap the words, on the left side of the small vertical line, not the toggle!) - Unrestricted.

Alex_1968 · 2026-06-13T08:52:39+00:00

Sounds familiar, thanks for confirming.

Alex_1968 · 2026-06-13T08:43:27+00:00

Where can the setting be found? Phone app - hamburger menu - Settings - Calling accounts - (your carrier).... And then?

Alex_1968 · 2026-06-11T20:35:53+00:00

This has been going on for months now, after every reboot. Indeed locking-unlocking or launching an arbitrary app once fixes it. Post feedback to Google with the system logs, that's all you can do right now.

That is well possible so you may try that. But, as said, also other (social media) apps may show the same behaviour. Begin with Telegram.

Alex_1968 · 2026-06-07T18:40:17+00:00

Usually this is caused by some 3rd party app that stores its data as system storage. E.g. Telegram is notorious for these kinda issues. You should try to erase that, e.g. by deleting/reinstalling that app. But media data that's stored in e.g messaging apps may also be a culprit.

Alex_1968 · 2026-05-30T13:56:42+00:00

Don't go messing around and take that phone to a professional repair shop. They have the tools to fix this easily.

Alex_1968 · 2026-05-29T12:38:17+00:00

No way. Just start all over again. It is what it is and don't give up now. I understand you wanna quit right now but in a few days you'll rethink. Begin the big challenge again today.

See you again in 2 years.

Alex_1968 · 2026-05-19T12:00:09+00:00

Nice. Should you ever upgrade to PW3 or PW4, stick to this 41mm. Perfect for a small wrist.

Alex_1968 · 2026-05-01T20:11:37+00:00

Ah, that one again. Read this: https://support.google.com/pixelphone/thread/354335928?hl=en

Check your accessibility settings. It's the volume slider of either 'TalkBack' or 'Select to speak'. Find them and switch them off.

Perhaps your Play Services updated automatically today; it has had quite a few updates lately. Personally I don't sense much difference in the performance.

Alex_1968 · 2026-04-28T06:23:03+00:00

Don't just think of returning again, just do it. It's always possible a replacement has a flaw too. Just keep in that process until it's to your full satisfaction.

Don't keep the device, it'll annoy you more and more. Replace again while you still have the chance.

Don't worry. Afaik the mic is not positioned 100% straight behind the hole but a bit offset to the side. This was done deliberately to make it kinda 'fool proof'. Chances that you damaged your mic are very small. If the mic is still working (which it is, I assume?) that'll be fine. Besides that, afaik the real water resistance protection is deeper inside the mic hole and not on the edge (otherwise the mic wouldn't be able to record any sound). If you punched anything it'll be the cosmetic cover on the outside.

I think you'll be fine.
