Which Carrier R U with? Also, did it pop up while using the phone app?
Thank you.
Edit= I just got it too!

Yup, got it here first thing this morning. The phone app has not updated yet though. I keep checking.

Working now on my Pixel 3 XL. Awesome.

I never got the email.
But I have call screen. Been using the magisk module to enable it. So nothing new for me

There is a mod for this by just editing an xml file to bypass the US locale checks that's been around since the P2, but if rooted with Magisk, in MM you enter settings>>downloads and type in "call screen" the only module that comes up is "Pix3lify" .

That's what I'm doing. It worked on both of my devices before EMUI 5, but not now. Do you have the US version too?

Can you provide a screen shot of your camera settings? Maybe I have something selected that is overriding the feature.

Sorry for the other pic. Unable to delete it for some reason. Attached by mistake
Wow, you will never guess what setting caused the problem!
I had my volume button action set to zoom. When I switched it to trigger the shutter, suddenly the fingerprint trigger started working again! This makes no sense.
EDIT:
Strange... It only worked twice and now I can't get it to work again! What is going on?!

Screen timeout not working

I've noticed over the last few weeks that even when I change my screen timeout to 5 or 10 minutes, it reverts back to 1 minute. Has anybody experienced this? I'm not rooted a d was wondering if it was a theme causing this, but don't am not too sure About that neither.
I'd greatly​ appreciate any help or feedback.
Bump
i agree. it seem it reverts back every reboot
Are you running any themes?

I'm running themes and don't have an issue. Did you disable any packages with Package Disabler Pro? If so, that might be the issue.

Another option would be to leave it at 1 minute and use smart stay to keep the screen on when you're looking at it. I know that's not the solution you're looking for but it might be an option.

Active Edge Customization with Edge Sense Plus

I want to provide a magisk module that makes it possible to use my app: Edge Sense Plus
Therefore I will hook into the Active Edge Service called ElmyraService in SystemUIGoogle.apk.
Probably we will need to modify services.jar too to bypass the signature check.
Who is interested in this, or would it be waste of time for me?
Would need testers too, since I don't have a Pixel 2.
You should be familar with adb, to push, pull files and taking logcats
Hangouts link: https://hangouts.google.com/group/6cSKdk3No2lNAMs62
From what I understand you would like to make it so you can assign your own actions to the edge squeeze button? I would be interested as I don't use Google Assistant, I have knowledge basic knowledge about abd push/pull.
I also have a Pixel 2 walleye, I would love to help if I'm understanding correctly. :good:

Yeah, I fixed the link, was broken before: Edge Sense Plus
It would also enable double squeeze gesture.
Long squeeze seems not supported on the pixel 2?

Let me know what I can do to help, I'm not sure about the long squeeze (apk not supported on pixel 2) also I'm not too familiar with the squeeze button, first device with it.

How about a Magisk module that let's us run Viper ROM on a Pixel 2?? Lol. Sorry couldn't resist. Came from an HTC 10 and really miss your work.
I´am willing to help!
I´ve gotten it to work by making my app a system app in order to be able to register the elmyra sensor without google assistant enabled.
The problem i encountered is that you will need to go in to the setting where you enable active edge in order for it to start working and it will stop working as soon as the settings app isnt active/in memory anymore.

Yeah, the squeeze sensor is just available for system apps.
Went that way first on the u11 too.
But having it work just for rooted users was no option for me.
On the u11 the squeeze actions are custumizable though.
So it is possible to let start apps on a short/long squeeze.
That way the squeeze gestures can be forwarded to my app.
Not possible on the pixel 2 though. That's why we need a magisk module with a modified Systemui apk that modifies 4th he elmyra service

An hour ago I even didn't know the XL also has a squeezable frame.
Can you pull me some files from the pixel2xl, so I can check if the files are the same?

Hey Jan. I'd be willing to give it a test.

OK Google.. with screen off.. A good feature that's Working :)

Honestly, I never thought ok google would work with screen off for non pixel devices... But it works for OP6.. Just tried it..
This helps in unlocking the phone will driving and directly making calls..
Apologies if you already knew this before but it's kinda new for me.. Just thought of sharing this with anyone who is like me...
Thanks for sharing. Can you share the settings steps for it.

Sure. It's fairly simple
Settings...google...search... Voice... Voice match.. (train assistant with your voice by saying ok google and hey google as per on screen instructions) and that's it..
Lock ur phone and try saying ok google.. It will unlock

This is awesome.

Hahaha.. Probable solution would be to use a pair of earphones with mic and whisper.. Okay google..
Thanks ! I never used Google Assistant, but I may try if it is so easy...provided the permanent listening does not eat battery ! By the way, any changes in battery drain when using this feature ?

It's strange for me that this is news because I've been using custom romsnfor so long that had this implementated. It's a good feature
I think the idle drain will be about the higher than without it (this is what I have noticed) but it's not massive so definitely a recent trade off if you like the service. I have a few Google homes and they all pick up my voice but then it knows from which device to reply from based on what's nearest to you.
I've used this mainly for turning on Bluetooth and setting navigation whilst driving. Also asking questions whilst driving that I want the answer to.

I doubt if custom roms would make any difference. I have used oneplus 1 and op3 but none of the custom roms for these devices had this feature.. Interesting point you made about multiple Google homes devices and the nearest one reverts back.. Didn't know this..

If sommone Not Getting beep sound while assistant wakeups you need to enable Switch acess in accesability settings

Question UK Folk and Starling Bank app

Hi all
So those in the UK using Starling Bank app on 7 Pro, do you have issue with no notifications?
When I install the app it defaults to no notification permission so I enable it and turn off battery optimisation but still get zero notifications.
This is only app with problem and multiple re install and even a full wipe and re flash firmware did not solve it.
Wondering if I need to get it replaced as Starling says they not aware of any issues on the app.

I think that your Bank that you need to contact for explain your problem.
That's not come from your phone Pixel 7pro.

They likely need to update their app for the Pixel 7/Pro. If other apps send you notifications just fine, then the problem is with their app, not the phone.
Notifications have worked fine for me on the pixel 7 pro for starling bank. I transferred from a pixel 6a which was working fine also.

hmm when you installed it did it ask for notification permissions?
if it works for you then the app does not need fixing so faulty phone is only other thing it could be.
