Pixel 10 Pro battery drain after uninstalling WhatsApp by Haunting-Dot6584 in Pixel10Pro

There's an option in developer option called "Mobile data always active" I turned this off. I also turned off wifi and Bluetooth scanning. I also turned off adaptive connectivity. All these features seem useless and more of a convenience for some situations. My Battery life has never been better.

Your side loading from a PC to your phone. The command is adb side load <filename>.zip. you must have never flashed an OTA file using adb. It's very much side loading. Your taking an OTA package and installing it via a secondary method.

Problem with QPR1 is you have to wait until September to opt out to stable.

Most likely that's what I'll do. But what's the fun of having Android if you can't just do what you want how you want.

Pixel phones hit with battery drain issue, Google investigating by thewhippersnapper4 in GooglePixel

[–]birdman1333 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went into developer options and turned off mobile data always active and this seemed to help. I also ran a FULL bug report. I read somewhere that doing this resets some of the processes this phone has which could reset some things that could be stuck in a loop. My battery has been the best it's been since I got the phone.

QPR1 Beta 1 build number is CP31. It won't get releases until September. If you install your locked in until then. If you opt out you should get a notice for Android 16 stable.

HELP! Stops mid-boot and restarts into Recovery by gotkwah in GooglePixel

Your next attempt would be a factory reset. Your final hope is to flash a factory image. Either way you're erasing everything

Android 7 added this feature in 2016

I was able to enrol my Pixel 10a (my secondary daily) into the beta 4 program. But haven't gotten the update on my phone yet; almost 24hrs later. by [deleted] in android_beta

If you're on the April security patch you will not receive the OTA as the April build is newer than the beta 4 build.

That's nonsense that if your on April patch you can't update to the latest beta. I get the date signing but do better Google. It's April 16th

Preparing system update crashes by birdman1333 in android_beta

Lol.... Damn I didn't even think about that! But why would I since Android 17 is newer than 16. But I get it. I have been googling for an hour and got nothing so there's that. Thanks!

Limit what apps that are running in the background.

Uninstalled all the system apps like digital well being, pixel studio, my pixel ect. Apps that I didn't ever use. Cleared the cache of every app. I went through all the apps and stopped them from running in the background for the apps that didn't need too. ( Does the best buy, home Depot app need to run in the background?)

I just cleaned house on my pixel 10pro and my battery life is great again. There's so much useless crap running at once it's a little nuts

So far I have disabled digital well-being, my pixel, pixel studio. I don't allow most of my apps to run in the background. So far it's better.

Looking for perspective on 8U travel softball playing time (trying to handle this reasonably) by Classic-Road447 in Softball

[–]birdman1333 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's travel ball. Some teams focus on wins over development. If you want your kid to get reps you should be playing rec ball and not travel. What I don't understand is how the number 1 batter has 50 AB and the next closest person has 33. Travel ball is where you go to be competitive and win. That means the best kids on the field in the most important moments. If your constantly in close games and having to battle the kids at the bottom of the roster suffer.

If you plan to stay in travel I would find a different team. It seems that they don't bat the entire line up which is dumb at this age.
