The weather warning went across all Google devices I believe as people with Google home hubs even got it so it's not pixel specific

How long do you have to return the phone if not happy?

Depends where you bought it from simfree/contract.

My signal issues are horrendous, the dropout from 5/4g to H+ renders me unable to do anything consistantly noutside of wi-fi.

My mate 20 lite was bulletproof in comparison connection wise. Really put a huge downer ok my first pixel phone and quite honestly it might be my last.

My misses Pixel 6 is not auto rotating on the camera or apps. Everything is enabled and face detection auto rotate is enabled. It works if the phone is restarted but then stops working again 10 mins later. All the kids Christmas play videos and photos were the wrong orientation was what alerted us to it not working.
On my Pixel 6 it's working fine. Weird :confused:

My signal has been absolutely shocking since the update yesterday. Almost making the phone unusable. I'm on o2

On the plus side the fps finally works. Not happy that we had to wait so long for that fix though .

Strange so is there a pattern which network providers and if 5g or not ?

EE / 4G and no signal issues here.

I had read it is possibly a fault with the download build that ends A1 or A4. Go to settings, about phone and scroll to bottom of screen to see build number.

Is that with a screen protector?

Yes it is. Actually useable now.

Very annoyed about signal issues though. Hope a quick fix and not have to wait as long as FPS. Ironically the software/updated is why I choose a pixel

Haven't used the stand much but I noticed the AOD pulsing yesterday which was quite annoying.

So fingerprint reader improved but signal quality tanked?

I have my screen saver set to show digital clock when put on charge, gives a dim clock at side of bed during the night. Since the update i have found that this does not always work. On occasion the screen does not turn off and stays at home screen. Also if i use Google assistant at this time to switch off lights then Google assistant seems to stay listening and does not close. Anyone else experienced this.

Yeah on o2 also. Seems it only affects certain carriers. Very disappointing though, with one hand Google giveth and with the other one it taketh away.

Notices a change in Bluetooth audio, much lower and now if I get a notification while connected to Bluetooth the music playing will be reduced in volume till I acknowledge the notification.

Scort · 16 Dec 2021 at 10:31

Is there any way to output audio to two BT speakers at once? I used to be able to do so on my S9+, but cannot seemt to find such an option anywhere on the Pixel 6....?

xb8browney · 16 Dec 2021 at 11:11

I'm not sure how you do it buts a feature of BT v5?
