Curious if anyone is using (or has tried) an unlocked (non-Verizon) Pixel or Pixel XL on Xfinity Mobile? Xfinity uses the Verizon network and the Verizon site says my phone is compatible. Xfinity doesn't officially support BYOD with Android phones but there seems to be some incidences of Android phones working. I am an Xfinity internet customer so I am eligible if I had a compatible phone. The savings would be significant over my current Consumer Cellular plan.

I've been running that for years. Have a Pixel XL and Xfinity at home. So I'm eligible to use the Xfinity app and it works for me all the time when I'm in a place that has such a signal.

It worked before on my Nexus 6 and 6P. I would go through your settings to make sure you have them set right. Good Luck.

You misunderstood the question. I was asking if anyone was using Xfinity Mobile wireless service with a Pixel XL. XM uses the Verizon network for calls and cellular data and (I believe) switches to an Xfinity hotspot if one is in range. Xfinity does not officially support BYOD for Android phones but there people claiming to be using it with their own Android device.
