Please review the latest release notes or limitations and general advisories before installing the update.

Important for those currently enrolled in Android 17 Beta:  

  • If you prefer to leave the Beta program and receive the public stable release of Android 17 QPR2, you can do so without wiping your device by opting out and not installing today’s QPR3 Beta 2 update. If you opt-out of the program after installing Beta 2 or any future updates, all user data on the device will get wiped per usual program guidelines. Opting out will trigger a ‘Downgrade’ OTA. Ignore this update and wait for the Android 17 QPR2 public release instead.

Android 17 QPR2 Beta 7.1 / Pixel 10a Screenshot Edit Overlay Freezes & Blocks Some Google Apps in Private Space

7 Upvotes

Occurred on Pixel 10a, Android 17 QPR2 Beta 7.1 (October)

Taking a screenshot inside an app located in Private Space causes the screenshot editing overlay preview to freeze. Tapping the edit button does not open the markup tool. While the screenshot preview remains stuck on screen, several system apps in Private Space (Play Store, Gemini, Google Photos) fail to open.

Recreate it on your own device and comment down if it occurred for you as well, reported the bug in Pixel Feedback app.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Open any application located inside Private Space.
  2. Take a screenshot using any method (Back Tap, physical side buttons, or Quick Settings shortcut).
  3. Tap the Edit button on the floating screenshot preview overlay.
  4. However Share button works normally, which would get rid of the floating screenshot that would get stuck on clicking edit.

Android 17 QPR3 Beta 2/ Pixel 9 Pro XL Absence de 5g

0 Upvotes

Bonjour, Depuis que je suis passé sous beta, je ne capte plus la 5G sauf si je me mets en mode réparateur.

Je suis à jour dans les bêtas mais je ne capte toujours pas la 5G.

Je suis dans un endroit éligible à la 5G, j'ai essayé dans des grandes villes mais rien du tout.

Est-ce que quelqu'un aurait une idée pour récupérer la 5G?

Merci

There is a bug somewhere so all P11 devices fail the Video Filter bench tanking the score on 3000, it might have been fixed because now it passes all the tests

Vulkan score is still the same though

The latest update comes with this message at the bottom. Do we have an opt out opportunity at this stage?

Important: If you are currently running a Beta version of Android 17 QPR2 (build starting with CP41) and want to exit the beta program without wiping your device, you can opt-out of the Beta program before applying this update and wait for the stable version release of Android 17 QPR2.

Android 17 QPR3 Beta 1 / Pixel 10 Pro Fold is there ANY effort going into fixing the memory pressure issues on QPR3?

0 Upvotes

this is a little ridiculous, there is no reason why my $2399 p10pf behaves like a bargain bin phone after running for more than 72hr. taking the qpr2 fix isn't an option either because you lot shoved me on qpr3 without any option to stay on the qpr2 track. might as well flash graphene at this rate smh

Android 17 QPR3 Beta 1 / Pixel 7 Pro qpr3 beta 1 phone crashing when opening instagram or even when receiving notifications from instagram

8 Upvotes

hello as the title says i started having reboots very frequently when opening instagram or even when receiving notifications from instagram.

i use a pixel 7 pro (DP11.260918.006) and since ive gotten this phone and opted in the beta program ive never encountered something like this, nor have i even encountered a reboot until now. this happens specifically ONLY with instagram, and no other app can trigger it as im aware.

Also, yesterday happened to somewhat bug out my both top and bottom speakers and started making popping sounds, a restart fixed this. I'm not sure if it's hardware related or not, but I'll add it here also.

is there someone else with this problem?

Android 17 QPR2 Beta 7.1 / Pixel 7 I cannot install A17QPR2 latest beta (P7)

0 Upvotes

I signed up this morning for the latest beta on my Pixel 7 and I hadn't received anything until a few hours ago when I got a message saying I have a new update available, but only in the menu "Device status and support". When I click on it, it takes me back to the updates page and there's nothing there, I don't have any updates.

Should I wait longer? Or should I manually flash the beta update?

(I used Google Translate because I was too lazy to think, sorry if it's not understandable + I can't add images, idk why.)
