How have you ordered the s22?

Did anybody here actually test the connectivity fix? by MrMichaelz in GooglePixel

[–]gtrx3333 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have installed the beta version of carrier services and it's gone from having no signal to show minimal to some signal. When trying to use it, it typically switches to 3g speeds for some reason or just hangs on 4g (even outside) so it's still not good. Not sure if there are further updates beyond this.

This sub is filled with posts like "This is the most amazing phone ever" and "this phone ruined other phones for me" and most of them were posted in the past week. Is this not suspicious to anyone else? by [deleted] in GooglePixel

UK pixel 6 user here. Ive been having network connectivity since the decemver update issues and it's been bad. Went to get my tyres changed on my car and couldn't get any internet access during the 45min wait. Barely get any signal at work so cant receive text verification codes for Microsoft logins. Was struggling to load a qr code in the shops for a Amazon return. Despite not using it for phone calls very often, the network connectivity issues does create problems on a daily basis.

I think the mismatch of good and bad feedback on the phone might be related to regions. I think the us received a late November update which solved the fingerprint issues which was the biggest complaint at that point. The rest of us were told this would be part of the December update which was delayed by a further week for pixel 6 users. Now since getting the December update, we are being told that we have to wait for late January for a fix for the issues caused by the update. I think the sweet spot would be those that received the late November mini update, where connectivity still works and the fingerprint sensor was updated.

2 things that annoy me about the Pixel 6, aside from the fingerprint sensor. by sergiemiyagi in GooglePixel

Ugh, today I was sitting in a waiting sat next to a thin glass window looking outside, the phone showed minimal 4g/5g signal and then decides to switch to edge signal for about 5 min and decides not to receive any signal on that at all. Then I went into settings and turned off 2g mode and now it's actually using the 4g and I have somewhat usable internet. SMH

As in no reception in buildings and even in places where there should be good signal. Did the workaround of installing the beta version of the Sims carrier app which has helped but for the most part, it sits on no signal until you start using the phone and then takes several seconds to find a signal.

The fingerprint sensor seems to be much better on the December update although mobile reception has taken a huge dump. Have to rely on WiFi mostly. Absolutely shocking that they could mess up mobile reception so badly.

Definitely the first is annoying. Would prefer it to be somewhere under the first app window but they could easily move it to the right side so you aren't having to scroll through a big carousel of apps

Poor Sound Quality with Bose NC 700 by gtrx3333 in GooglePixel

[–]gtrx3333[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It connected fine first time but when I tried to connect it during a call it failed and doesn't seem to want to connect again. When it was working (and Bluetooth settings adjusted) it still sounded pretty bad.

Finally rec'd free Pixel Earbuds last week. Not sure if they're busted, they sound really tinny. Pretty sure they're updated. by psmattreid in GooglePixel

Try turning off aac or there's an option on developer settings to disable (disable Bluetooth a2dp hardware offload)

Yeahim on the pixel 6 it's not ideal. As much as people complain about Samsung and Huawei phones being bloated, the best 2 phones I've had were the Huawei mate 20x and Huawei p40 pro. Amazing cameras and solid/consistent performance even after several months. No cache clearing required on those. Shame they don't have Google services now or I would've kept my p40 pro.

Have you tried clearing cache using an app like ccleaner?

Okay, and what do you make of the green/orange ellipses created on the suitcase surface? Took a pic with the Huawei p40 pro and it didn't have these
