A simple one, you don't have Battery Saver on do you? It disables Motion Sense.

i'm on A3 and it works fine, note that anytime you restart your phone motion sense will get disabled automatically, u need to re-enter those commands in the terminal to make it work again :
setprop pixel.oslo.allowed_override true
setprop persist.pixel.oslo.allowed_override true
setprop ctl.restart zygote

They aren't in the officially "whitelisted" countries, yet. You can most likely try the workaround to enable it.

Are you sure the persist property is not enough? The persist property should not change across reboots.

i honestly didn't try the persist property alone, i'll try it on my next reboot, several users reported though that rebooting their pixel will cause motion sense to get disabled and they need to re-enter the commands

That's why the persist property is there. I shall try that when I arrive at a country where it is not supported. But in general I can confirm the property persists after reboot.

I can confirm that my motion sense gets disabled despite the persistent property is there. I'm on November 5th, and setting the non persistent property together with zygote restart solves the issue.

I'm a Kiwi in NZ with P4XL and motion sense is geo blocked from functioning for me also, but I'm willing to bet once you fly back to Oz it will start working for me too ;-D

I'm in NZ too and have managed to get motion sense working here using the adb commands.
