I was looking to buy this phone but I note its having some major issues: http://www.androidheadlines.com/201...ers-reporting-premature-battery-shutdown.html
Anyone know just how widespread the issues are? Is it too risky to buy?
I have had the VZW Pixel 128GB from the day of release, installed all the updates as they were released. I have experienced no issues whatsoever in all the time I have had it. I have unlocked, rooted, unrooted, installed 2 different custom kernels and stock. Through all this I have had 0 issues with the phone. I love it.

It is not a major Pixel issue. It is a minor Android 7 issue. It is happening at low levels to a few phones. I don't even recall seeing anyone in these pixel forums about it.
I have this issue, on the regular (non-XL) Pixel. I first noticed it between Christmas and NYE, the device shut down at around 20% battery. It's now happening almost every time the battery drops below 25%, albeit at slightly different capacities each time (between 18-25%). This morning I used the "chat" option to discuss with Support, without noticing the new security patch released this morning. So now I'm running my battery down and waiting to recreate the issue. Support played dumb and said they hadn't heard of the issue.

Did the security patch help? I had the same issue on my 5" Pixel (around 10% though) and did a factory reset (with only the most necessary apps installed), since then the problem is gone. BUT i also received the January security patch on the same day, so i don't really know what fixed it.
What i also recognized on my screenshots and my others that were posted on this matter, is the wrong Awake/"Aktiv" indicator before the shutdown happened (see the attached screenshot). IMO, this may point to a software issue, not an actual faulty battery or cool temperatures.
Hello
I have the same issue
I am use XL device . this issue happen to me 3 times . first time was before a month when the battery come to 50% the phone shut down

Nothing new that i know of, i didn't run into this problem since the factory reset. Maybe, in some cases, it's a hardware issue after all? Does your awake-log look faulty as well?

Yes, exactly the same as you described, even with the false activity line as shown on your picture. Does this work now too after your factory reset?

Yes, it happened after new years, when the device was just about a week old and did not occur since then. This is from yesterday (regular Pixel), while i never crack the 5h mark with mixed usage: https://goo.gl/photos/Yui6D3sdSK8gyFax9
These are from when the first or second early shutdown occured: http://imgur.com/a/4g0V5
I find it a bit weird that this is not a bigger topic on XDA, there are a "lot" of posts in the issue tracker, the pixel user community and even a some on reddit from time to time.

Okay, I'm not 100 % sure but I think this happened first time after the February update. Looks like I should do a factory reset. Let's see if this works for me as well.

Hi there,
Recently i've updated my Nexus 5 to Android 4.4.3. (from stock 4.4.2 rooted)
Every time after updating to 4.4.3 my camera sound is horrible (like it's recording underwater).
I've used zip files (after wiping) to flash without any succes.
When i used my backup of 4.4.2 the problem was gone again. So the hardware isn't broken or anything.
Now i've sideloaded the official factory image (4.4.3) after a full wipe and still the problem exists.
How is this even possible? Is there any way to fix this?
Thanks for helping in advance
PS: i've contacted Google but their e-mail in bad translation didn't help me. They told me to do a factory reset lol

Thanks for your reply man! I really thought i screwed up my phone somehow without knowing it.
Do you know by any chance if there is a way to fix this? This topic was hard to google/search since I only got stuff about the previous camera bug. Or maybe my "tech English" isn't sufficient.
The issue is ongoing. We thought 4.4.3 was going to fix it but evidently not. There are no other real fixes

I never had this issue on previous android versions and I've had my Nexus shortly after the release. I honestly think this is a new bug but I could be wrong.
If there are no fixes I need a new phone or my money back.

The noise cancellation bug has been around since day 1, when I got my N5. Not everyone notices because it acts differently depending on the environment the videos are recording in. It also effects calls.
There's no fix right now. Try and get your money back if you like.

Yes, this is new bug, no discussion. I've made more than thousand vids with my N5 so I'm familiar with "old" sound bug, but this new one wich came with 4.4.3 is much worse than issue from previous one and make my Nexus completly useless as camera.. It sounds like underwater.

It's the same bug alright. I have no doubt. Perhaps it sounds different to you on your phone because they made it worse.
I can say with a strong degree of certainty that it is the same bug though, because the "old" bug you refer to was due to a poor noise cancellation issue. This bug went away for me when I fitted a slickwraps skin that covers my noise cancellation mic. ...and after upgrading to 4.4.3, I still don't have any issues whilst that secondary microphone is covered. My videos are as expected.

It's much worse that it was.. As I said, my Nexus is now useless as digital camera.. Or it was useless, because I've flashed 4.4.2 again.

So this bug is there since the beginning? How is it possible that multiple users experience the same problem after updating to 4.4.3?
I think it's a similar bug, but new.
Going to flash 4.4.2 again cause I need my camera.
I've sent another email to Google. I'll put the reply here.
Thanks for all the replies everyone! Hope someone finds a solution.

But how come it wasn't there on my 4.4.2 or as you described it, wasn't hearable?
I am a music producer. I always use my phone to film my latest creations to send them to friends via whatsapp. Never had any issues. First was good, now it's absolutely useless. I film exactly from the same spot in my studio. There should be a way around to get the sound back from 4.4.2 right? Some custom rom or whatever?
Thanks for all your answers man!
Hello,

Has anyone else had an issue where characters are repeated when typing (like in the title)? Had the phone for a week now and I'm really impressed but this little issue is ddriving me nuts. I thought it was an issue with SwiftKey but swapping for the built in Gboard hasn't resolved the issue. I'm running the current firmware release C432. Happens with sspacees too...So odd?.

Same problem here.
This happened to me once or twice. I noticed that it happened when I accidentally swiped over the keyboard instead of typed a letter. Maybe the same happened to you.
Thanks for your responses. I've noticed that it got worse the more quickly I typed. I did a power cycle (AKA Magic Reboot) shortly after I made the post and it doesn't seem too bad now (typing this on a laptop). Doesn't look like it is "an issue" as such as its only a couple of people reporting it here. Hard to tell as it has not been available long so the user-base will be fairly small.

There was another thread where a few of us were discussing... The 130 update definitely reduced touch sensitivity so there are missed touch points when typing and also repeating letters when typing fast.. The 100 firmware was fine.. I did send them a message on HiCare and they said they'd pass it over to the dev team.. Hopefully the next update fixes it..

I tried the Live Chat facility and they suggested clearing the Cache Partition. I did that and still get the issue (typing this on laptop). He said that it was the first case he had heard of this happening (funny how they always say that...). I might try the live chat again to see what can be done. I mentioned about the lack of feedback/bug report and he said he would "pass it on" so not much use really.

It seems puzzling that if it were a software issue, then everyone running the 130(C432) release would we mentioning it on this forum. As it seems a little quiet with regards to that, this make me think its a hardware issue affecting a limited number of handsets.
I'm hoping that the next update (overdue for Feb and now due for March update) may fix it. If not, I'll be sending it off for repair with John Lewis in the UK where I bought it from.

I finally did the factory reset as suggested by support a while back and strangely (had no hope that it would fix it), the issue has (so far) not returned .
I'm wondering if the issue occured as a result of the the January 130 update which started to install as soon as I connected the phone to the WiFi when I first set up the handset. Anyone else who are having the issue after the update but have not done a factory reset, I recommend that they try it. If you have done the reset, do you still get the issue?
Hopefully the 140 update (due any day?) will now sort out the dropping bluetooth whilst streaming music.

My factory reset seemed to resolve the issue but it came back shortly afterwards but not as bad as it was previously. That or I've become more accustomed to it. EIther way, it is still here. I take it you are not on the C432 (UK?) variant like mine? No sign of the 140 update for me yet which seems to resolve it for some users suffering the same issue.

Yes I’m not gone upgrade to future version until Android P arrived(wherever take that).
Vivo lately fix something and broken something else with September software update.
I’ve made the last one because I had trouble with push notifications from various app that from time to time didn’t work normal and was really annoying.
I’m talking for previous version 1.18.4 that got earlier September.
With all previous version didn’t had any kind that issue.
Fortunately current newer version seems until now resolved that issue had with 1.18.4.
I’m gone monitoring it.

Hello
I started the update and then I've read your warnings:silly::silly:
Reboot correct for now
I noticed a very fast gps localization as I launched Google Maps probably faster than before. I had some disconnection during my bike sessions. I'll tell you later if it has improved
Tell me if you want me to test something in particular
This update is supposed to bring better network speed and call quality and bluetooth...
I have not tried any of those really I cant comment on those, but maybe I imagine things but it feels that the last update was faster then the new one... maybe.. it will feel as fast again after I let it run for a while.. and I have put all apps in memory etc...
Snapchat did lagg litte bit.. first time... it did not with the last rom..so.. I dont know.. maybe it will be back to same speed tomorrow.
so take this with a grain of salt but I would like to try the two roms side by side and compare app opening times etc.
New update 1.19.5(Chinese version)
So far 2 days now everything good.
Not having any complaint.
Battery life solid as before,push notifications working normal so far.

2nd day everything runs good as suspected it takes some time to fill up Dalvik chache for the system.
Only lag I see is in snapchat..but it could be that snapchat is just a crap software... I cant remember if it did lag before I think not..
Battery life feels better now, maybe it is because I run Rootless Pixel launcher now, but it feels better then before also.
I see no reason to not install this update.
thanks.. in download now...
Now I get the new version and everything works fine.

Hi Guys,
I have a really annoying issue while using my running app Endomondo. If i start running, i normally gets every kilometer an anouncment of the time per km and in total. Since I use my Mix 3 the announcment are pretty inaccurate! For example yesterday I run 8km, the app told me at the end it was just ~6km...don't know what is wrong. Any idea to solve the problem!?

How accurate is it when you review the run on the map? Is it tracking the actual path or is it hopping all over and cutting corners?

Yes GPS issues for sure on this phone. Annoying especially for a phone that is supposed to have good GPS.

Any chance to fix the issue? With this issue it makes no sense to use the phone for running

Phone is not rooted. Tryed Endomondo for a run a few minutes ago, and what should I say, all was good with the tracking, same distance like my Galaxy S7 edge. I have changed battery savings restrictions to no restrictions and I have updated this evening to global 10.2.1.0 so don't know if the solution is because of the change in the battery settings or because of the update to the latest Miui!
