    Post Headphones for Pixel 2 XL (Type C and Bluetooth)

    I was using my pre-Pixel 2 earbuds with the adapter but they finally broke at the twistpoint so I sprang for the Libratone Q Adapt USB-C Earphones. Hated the price but I was tired of finding issues with all the earbuds I have in my collection. Hate bluetooth, I walk a lot and having my...

    Post [ROM][N9 flounder][UNOFFICIAL][7.1.2_r24]★ Pure Nexus ★ Substratum ★[07/25/17]

    I'm looking for battery drain advice. Have an LTE Nexus 9. Have the latest PN and the latest Fire and Ice kernel with a conservative governor. I'm getting about 12 hours of life from a full charge even when it's sitting unused 8 of those hours. I've read so may forum posts I'm cross eyed...

    Post [TOOL] SKIPSOFT ANDROID TOOLKIT - NEXUS 6P - Drivers, Unlock, Flash Stock, Root

    Agree. First of all, reporting that the tool is behaving like that is a bug report as the function is broken for this specific device. Second, duh if I wanted to reimage the device I know how to do it but I didn't want to do that. Sideloading the update is an available process for a reason...

    Trying to update my 6P to the latest OTA and I get a weird error. At the stage when starting the sideload, it says loading: 'put_zip_file_to_sideload_here\Nexus6P\angler-ota-nmf26f-61b4a915.zip' * cannot read 'put_zip_file_to_sideload_here\Nexus6P\angler-ota-nmf26f-61b4a915.zip' * And at...

    Post Lower volume button on headphones not working??

    I've submitted a couple detailed problem reports on this issue 10 - 14 days ago. Was told that the engineers are looking into it. Has to do with how the phone handles the voltages from the jack and pin. Likely also why Google is emphasizing this area and setting standards in their hardware...

    Post Pixel and GM vehicles Bluetooth connection issues

    For what it's worth, my Chevy dealer agreed to look at my radio and check the firmware/software to ensure it's the latest (or what passes for the latest) so that we can put to bed any question that the bluetooth problem is because the software in the GM hardware is not the latest. This is for a...

    Post Pixel and GM vehicles Bluetooth connection issues

    Google support had me video the issue with my car and I showed it happened with my Pixel and Nexus 6P, both running 7.1. I then rolled the Nexus back to Android 7.0 and tested again. And it worked perfectly and as expected, so the issue is related to Android 7.1 and some of the GM head ends...

    Post Pixel and GM vehicles Bluetooth connection issues

    The car is a 2012 Chevrolet Equinox with the factory handsfree OnStar equipment I can pair but as soon as I'm off the pairing screens, it no longer connects although it seems to think it is, given it shows the vehicle in Paired Devices and shows in the car as a paired phone. My Nexus 6P, prior...

    Post Pixel XL (and a Nexus 6p running 7.1) bluetooth problems with GM car

    Thanks, the phone is showing as paired on both the phone itself and on the car, it just never actually connects after pairing, does nothing with contacts nor keeps a connection longer than 4 seconds. It'll say Pixel XL then swap to Onstar Handsfree and the bluetooth connected indicator light...

    I appreciate that, but on the google pixel help groups, there are a bunch of us with the issue. We all describe it the same as well.

    Thread Pixel XL (and a Nexus 6p running 7.1) bluetooth problems with GM car

    My Nexus 6P updated to 7.1 last night and the Pixel came today, so this likely is a 7.1 issue. I have a 2012 GM Equinox that was working great with teh Nexus 6P pre 7.1, Never tried it with 7.1 because it came after I was home and had no reason to be in the car and the new Pixel came today...
