Android 12 & Pixel Stand charging

This appears to be fixed in the December update. When I put my phone on the Pixel Stand now, I still get the lock screen but not your background...it goes dark.

Been messing around with this as well. Using my Pixel Stand at work but a different stand from the Google store at home.

I will say, one thing I do miss about my old BlackBerry was being able to just drop it in the dock at night and Bedside Mode instantly would activate. Set it up one time and forget it. Ahh, nostalagia... (shuffles away like an old codger)

FWIW the December update didn't fix the problems I'm having with the Pixel Stand app constantly crashing when the P5 is docked. I keep hitting the report button, hoping they'll get sick of seeing my report and actually fix it.

I do get that periodically, too. I tried starting the clock screensaver when it was docked but when I woke up in the morning, it was back on the grayed out lock screen. I read about people getting burn-in of the Google Assistant logo so I didn't want that on there all night so went back to telling it "Screen off when dark".

Go to Settings>Connected Devices​, then tap the gear icon next to Pixel Stand. Make sure the Do Not Disturb While Docked toggle is off.

Thx, I will test that change tonight. My phone appears to have the latest update (none available when I check), so that will be two variable changes at once. Depending upon results, I'll turn the toggle back on so that there is only one variable at play. As cyndie1030 mentioned, the update appears to solve the problem.

After putting on the stand, the phone screen went dark and stayed that way .

Just checking in, has anyone had the issue fixed? Been a couple months now.

Must have been for me, because I had totally forgot about this issue until I saw this thread while scrolling. Hasn't happened in a long while
