Android 7.1.2 Beta is live!!!!
- Thread starter puertorecon
- Start date
No Google Assistant. No fingerprint gestures. Google failure company. The time came to buy iPhone.
Geez. I wonder how's your life going in general...
No Google Assistant. No fingerprint gestures. Apple failure company. The time came to buy Pixel.
What? Take care of yourself. It's disappointing that I spent last year 750$ on Nexus 6P and I got problems with it like shut down off under 20% percent of battery life, while Apple has similar problems for their devices and they are fixing it.

Cool. Please let us know if you think it solved the problem of shut off below 20% (if you were experiencing that issue at all). It's a tough one to identify because for me it happens about half of the time, not all of the time.
Thanks. Good luck!
Disappointed that we don't get the assistant yet and no swipe on the fingerprint sensor. Other than that so far so good.

The 7.1.2 beta just installed on my phone and now I'm not getting any Google now cards. It just says can't reach your feed at the moment. Does anyone else have this problem?
I get same error intermittently on my Pixel XL right now, so it's not 6p-specific.
I extracted the boot and modified it with dm-verity and force encryption disabled. But now I'm not sure how to test, I would need the images and not the update zip to fastboot flash the rest of update Images. I guess one would just update then fastboot flash boot. Or does google post preview images elsewhere? My work pc has fastboot setup and I'll update then test and report back. If anyone wants to try it here's the link.

I've read the finger print gestures were coming through the 7.1.2 beta and rumor has it 7.1.3 was getting Google assistant. But they did state "rumor has it" so don't know what's all in the 7.1.2 beta for us Nexus 6P folks.
Yep had the same issue. Restarted phone now works as intended!

Are you all rooted? I couldn't get to boot with the OTA (no surprise) even after reflashing twrp & flashing su
the problem is the battery, early battery degradation, they could mitigate this issue on the software side but it won't stop completely and the battery will keep getting worse.
I changed mine and no more shutdown and 2x more battery life.
and the reason why you only have this issue half the time is because if you use certains apps that use high voltage, it will trigger the shutdown (launching the the camera and taking picture is the easiest way to do it)
This error is not due to android 7.1.2. I'm experiencing same on android 7.1.1 on my moto g having RR 5.8.2 rom.So, I guess it is more of a server side problem or a problem in google app itself
I and my wife both had the early shutdown problems on our phones - she's on an iPhone6 and I'm on the 6p. I got an RMA phone, and no more problems (exactly the same software setup). I don't think it's a software problem, and highly suspect planned obsolescence where the batteries are designed to have cells have a life of around 18 months or so. One of the cells in the battery dies, and so the voltage drops off way fast once the remaining good cells discharge and the phone battery meter can't figure out what's going on. I'd bet a box of doughnuts that no software change is going to fix the actual problem. I have no proof of that, just skeptical observation.
If I were a black helicopter & tin foil hat person, I'd even have a hint of wonder if that's what happened to the Explod-a-Note. Maybe the manufacturers were pushing the envelope of how little past the warranty date they could get the (non-replaceable) batteries to die. AFAIK, battery tech isn't much more compact / more mAH in recent years, so just makes me wonder...
