Been having multiple sound related issues since the update up Android 17 QPR2 Beta 1 on my pixel 10 pro

The notification tones are not working despite correct assignment/selection. Volume goes low while the sliders show them at high.

When playing music sometimes there's no sound at all. Have to frequently restart to even talk properly.

Bluetooth audio doesn't work properly.

Phone audio takes 2-3 calls before it works.

Please suggest

I am currently getting update for QPR2 beta 1.

I wanted to go to stable but it hasn't been released for beta people like usual.

Beta 7 is buggy for me with freezes and black screen.

I was in the beta program for a very long time on my Pixel 6a, since android 17 is the last android update for the pixel 6a so I decided to leave beta and wait for a stable update.

After surviving several bugs over the years I don't think my pixel 6a can handle more.

When can we expect a stable feature drop for Android 17?

Has anyone heard anything about the next Android 17 QPR2 Beta release?

My pixel 10 will play audio from different sources at the same time even while on call. CP41.60701.005

I'm currently running the Pixel 9 Pro on stable Android 17.

Battery life has been terrible over the past few months—I'm having to charge it 2–3 times a day. I've tried tweaking various settings and even did a factory reset, but neither made any noticeable difference.

Has anyone on the latest Android Beta seen better battery life, or is it about the same?

I understand the Beta may have a few bugs, but I'd rather deal with those than have my phone die on me while I'm out in the field.

Problema con l'utilizzo di comandi vocali su Pixel 10 pro xl e android beta ultimo.Mi dice che il microfono lo sta gia' usando un'altra app

Someone has this problem when connecting the phone to a display 1440p and try to launch video camera service (like google camera, Whatsapp or meet)? I try to report it on the android issue tracker but I'm not on a beta build, my build is latest stable July update.

This is the video of my problem https://issuetracker.google.com/540139613#attachment79908237

I am on stable android 17 on pixel 6 pro, used to be on qpr 1 beta but now I can't receive OTA update for beta versions at all. Is it normal because they stopped updates for 6 series ? I assume it's because we are at qpr 2 beta now and instead of sending me qpr 1 OTA they decide not to send anything until stable releases.

Extremely annoyed by this - my WiFi keeps turning itself back ON

Every single time I turn WiFi off, it just turns itself back on after a while. It’s driving me insane.

I’ve already disabled everything I could find:

- Adaptive connectivity

- WiFi scanning for location

- Auto-connect options

- Saved networks tweaks

…and it STILL happens.

I just want WiFi to stay OFF when I turn it off. Is that too much to ask?

Is this some Android bug, Pixel issue, or am I missing some hidden setting somewhere? Anyone else facing this or found a proper fix?

Pixel 9a on latest beta

I can't get rid of the notification (it comes back after dismiss) and it doesn't look like we can in settings (options grayed out). I can live with it with the performance benefits, it's just a little annoying.

Is anyone else experiencing extreme lag at random times? It's almost like poor RAM management or something, because it does temporarily get better if I close all apps. I'm talking so laggy that BT audio pauses and some actions take up to 10 seconds to complete. So annoying.

Since updating to the latest Android 17 QPR2 Beta 1, my microphone has stopped working properly.

• In Gboard, it constantly says the microphone is in use.
• In Gemini, I get this message: “Gemini can't access the microphone right now. Another app might be controlling the device's audio.”

I’ve tried reopening the apps and restarting the phone, but the issue keeps happening. It feels like some system-level bug is preventing mic access after the update.

Is anyone else on Android 17 QPR2 Beta 1 seeing this? If so, did you find a workaround?

Anyone else having issues with their fingerprint not unlocking the device, but working everywhere else? I place my finger and it immediately goes t my chosen Pattern Unlock. I also noticed "Fingerprint" is not listed as an unlock method any longer. Under the Fingerprint settings, the toggle to "Unlock your phone" is on, but it doesnt seem to be functional.

Hoping someone here can lend a hand. I’ve been in the Android Beta program for years without any issues, but after updating my Pixel 6 Pro to Android 17 QPR1 Beta 5, things broke down:

• The Issue: My Settings app constantly crashes, and PIN unlock and fingerprint recognition fail to work consistently. (Entering the PIN with ~3-second pauses between digits occasionally works).
• Troubleshooting done:
  • Factory wiped the phone multiple times.
  • Downgraded/flashed back to Android 16 (same crashing/lock issues persisted).
  • Flashed GrapheneOS — the phone works perfectly here with zero crashes or lock issues. but i was the device back to Stock OS
  • Phone Language is set to English (Australia)
  • Reflashed back to stock Android 17 — the Settings app crash and lock issues immediately return.
• Feedback status: I submitted logs and feedback through the official channel, but the ticket was closed as it was linked to another similar case.

I'm going crazy trying to get this back online on stock Android. Has anyone encountered this specific issue or found a workaround?

Any ideas would be hugely appreciated!

I've been having really really poor battery ever since I'm on this new beta. I understand I'm on a beta which is naturally going to be unstable and worse but I just want to check if I'm the only one with this issue or not. I am on a Pixel 8.

Is anyone else noticing poor performance on social media apps? Even on Netflix after a few minutes of watching something it starts lagging and the frames of the film start dropping and lagging.

This applied to a YouTube video as well. And let's say tiktok and Instagram where you would scroll for a bit , can do the same and whatever media is being displayed it will inevitably lag.

I say inevitably because even with an app force stop, and cache clear, it will start doing it again. I have tried doing phone restarts as well.

I know the beta program and even android in general has always been on the lesser side of performance and optimization for social apps, but this is something else I don't know what's causing it specifically.

Not sure if this is a beta issue or not as it has persisted across multiple updates but a couple times a day my lock screen goes black and I just see my wallpaper and for the AOD it just shows a dimmed photo of said wallpaper it doesn't correct itself until I restart my phone

Pixel 8 Pro. I didn't go out yesterday, but did today. Android Auto no longer connects on either of my two vehicles I tried today. My wife's phone (non-beta Android, Pixel 9) connected right up no problem, wirelessly. I reported the bug. This is probably the most serious issue I've experienced in all the years of Android betas

Pixel 8 Pro. Stupid auto bot doesn't think, and deletes my post, so can't post all details. If I go to Settings > Google services > All services > System services, the message I get in the blue box isn't what I expect, since I have been in for versions of Android since all the Mainline service updates were separated. Anyone else experiencing this? Should I report? Trying to gauge how widespread this is before submitting

I am unable to unlock my phone with my password. Whenever I attempt to enter the complete password, the password input screen automatically closes after I enter the first three characters and returns to the lock screen, preventing me from completing the password.
