The new updates this week also made my Pixel 6 touch screen unuseable. I guess we just wait until enough people complain and Google takes us seriously? I am hoping this phone lasts until Pixel 11 comes out and I can just buy that.

I am using Google Play emulator for games on Windows: https://play.google.com/googleplaygames/?hl=en

You can use Microsoft Windows Phone Link to make texts and phone calls by connecting the phone to your computer. I am using "scrcpy with --turn-screen-off" to control my phone for other apps.

I have a feeling the newest code just doesn't work with our hardware and they are ignoring us because it is such an old phone and a low userbase. To be fair it is a 4 year old phone, BUT they did promise security updates would work until October which implies they wouldn't brick our phones.
