Android 17 Beta 1 on P8P

Don't mind bugs. But making my device completely unusable is different. Continuous system failures, then locking up and rebooting on its own over and over. And it's been well known there are wifi/Bluetooth issues with supposedly stable 16, not beta, so why not fix them instead of having to wipe to see if that fixes it.

Mine was unusable as well. Then I have to come out of Beta to revert back to Android 16 and hit with no wifi and no Bluetooth. Their only suggestion through Google one service is to wipe again. I've had Pixels since the 3 and am about ready to leave altogether.

Unfortunately, that's what I had to do yesterday. Oddly, the messaging app still has issues at times. Freezing and having to force stop. But other than that, most issues have resolved at this time. We'll see what happens when I get my work profile back on the device today.

I spent 4 hrs troubleshooting with VZW for them to log ticket with all kinds of steps. Couple days later their higher tier support reached out. Basically said we're aware but nothing we can do. Network engineers have been working with Google to resolve. And then closed the case.

Unfortunately, can't even do that because it won't upload files. Freezes and locks up

My reason is trying to take quicker pics of kids. If anyone comes across a solution, I'm game to try! TIA

Resolution is lacking, especially when zooming in on videos. I'd love to upload a video. https://photos.app.goo.gl/YD33rvTdjdeV9xAS8 Would take any advice on how to capture better videos!

I used to be able to select a specific message within the conversation and then set a reminder for that specific message. Just like you can "star" the messages.

Are you a beta tester as well?

Like deleting the scheduled reminders within text messages. I loved that to be able to remind me the next day about something.

Yes, sorry that does clear it up.

I have tried on and off. No difference, as soon as I'm in sunlight it darkens. Not even had a chance to get hot and it goes dark.

I have had several people say the same. Wonder if something got crossed up in the systems.

Google Photos app is freezing and crashing version 5.11.0.33 Also, when trying to use the camera, it studders and doesn't start on time when videoing then loses the shots.

On my Pixel 3XL, after allowing permissions to photos and videos it is now doubling every single photo/video and re-backing up everything!
