Well after pairing->removing-> repairing like 20 times....finally got the Pixel to work with SMS over bluetooth. Not nearly as stable w/ Bluetooth devices as my S7 and iPhones. :(

MyLink head unit supports just fine, and s I said in my OP, my Galaxy S7 w/ Oreo work just fine and there is a setting in its options to enable "Message Access" in the S7's settings. There appears to be no option to enable the same "Message Access" in the Bluetooth setting on the Pixel 3/Android...

This maybe more of a Android 9.0 Pie question, however I just upgraded from a Samsung Galaxy S7 running Android 8.01 Oreo, which had "Message Access" enable/disable feature under the Bluetooth Connections (gear setting - "Use For") to allow text message notifications and sharing (text to voice...

Has anyone tried and/or successfully gotten the VPN setting to work to connect to their VPN? I use it to connect to my home VPN on all my other devices (Galaxy S4, S7, Note 10.1 2014, iPhone 6's, etc) and connects just fine on those devices, but won't connect (unsuccessful message) on the Pixel...

Just got my Unlocked Pixel 3 and moved my AT&T Galaxy S7 Sim over to it and never had to call or activate the phone over AT&T. It just worked. AT&T Wifi Calling activated just fine (I just wish we had the option to set the preferred mode to Wifi Calling like on the T-Mobile example that was...

I gave up on wanting to root my S7 AT&T...just too many issues. Selling it and moving to the Google Pixel 3 Unlocked version. Don't have to worry about the Wifi Calling, Tethering, HD Voice, etc...as its all confirmed to work, by several on Android Police, with this unlocked device...at least...

Love this ROM image! Anyone know if there is a way or different menu/launcher app that uses the entire screen for app icons/folders while in landscape mode like the original Samsung P600 ROM was?

Yes..that's been a known issue that is commonly stated through out this thread. :rolleyes:

When you unlocked it with AT&T, did you lose Wifi calling ability with AT&T? Curious to know as that will determine if I get mine unlocked for possible future move to another carrier. I understand if its unlocked and I move to a different carrier, that I for sure will lose WiFi calling and...

Problem with Unlocked phones on the US carriers, from my understanding, is that you lose advance features such as Wifi Calling, etc?? For me....not having Wifi Calling as a compromise to an unlocked systems is just not an option....as my cellular signal is poor at my place of work and many...

My AA USB Connectivity can be very spotty and temperamental at times, between my S4(5.0.1) and S7(8.0) and my 2017 Chevy Colorado ZR2 8" Infotainment system. Some times it syncs right up and works fine through-out the drive and other times it has a hell of a time connecting and once connecting...

Nope..need to be rooted. See my just added instructions in my prior comment, that worked for me. Please read the entire thread.

It's all in this thread. I have a 2018 Chevy Colorado ZR2 w/ 8" Infotainment system and it works good enough for me (on both my Unactivated-Rooted Verizon S4 on Lollipop 5.0.1 and my AT&T S7 Flat on Oreo 8.0, rooted). Works with latest Google Play Services and AA versions using the latest...

I desire root, because I use AAmirror in order to screen mirror my phone display up on my GM vehicle's factory Infotainment display as Android Auto completely sucks. Unfortunately AAmirror only works on a rooted system.

Interested in this, however I'm currently on an AT&T S7 flat G930A running latest security patched CRG5 (non-rooted). Recommendations on this (possible/not-possible)? I see in the OP instructions that it needs to be on CRF1. Do I need to go back and odin flash a stock CRF1? Any chance of an...
