After upgrading to Android 11, the images from the camera now start with "PXL_" instead of "IMG_". Is there a way to change this back? I'm old fashioned and just navigate my pictures via file browser on my computer and not a viewer application that organizes by metadata, so changing the image...

Just wanted to check in and say that the issue has not come up again, so looks to be just a quirk with the upgrade process.

Just as subject says - I upgraded to Android 11 on my 4a last night, and I didn't realize until just now that none of my calls or texts have come through. Calls went straight to voicemail and texts never arrived. Upon realizing this, I rebooted the phone and thankfully all my texts that had...

Yep - same here. I just installed it, and after reboot it still shows Oct 6th as update date.

It's not a hard and fast show stopper for me, but it's close. The security updates are why I only have pixels in my family (everyone else's pixel died so they moved to Pixel 3a, but my OG pixel is still going strong). I don't really care about OS updates, so it didn't bother me when my Nexus...

I did exactly this last night. I factory reset and did NOT use a backup to recover my data and apps. I installed just a very small subset of the apps that I had originally after the reset manually (and to be honest, I didn't have that many to begin with). Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to...

I fully agree, but if on a Monday on Android 9 a batter lasts 20 hours and then on a Tueaday on Android 10 the battery lasts 10 hours, the culprit is more likely to be Android 10 and not the gradual wear down of a 3 year old battery.

I wasn't expecting an update to Android 10, but now that we have it, I'm expecting at least a few months worth of regular security updates. If not, why would Google have gone through the trouble of updating the OG Pixel to Android 10 even though it wasn't required to?

I'm on regular OG Pixel (not XL) and am experiencing the exact same thing. Standby is outstanding, but doing literally anything with the phone drains battery twice as fast as before upgrade to Android 10.

This is the 5x forum, not the 5. And while the 5x was originally only promised security updates until October 2018 (I think), they actually released a November 2018 security update. And as an update, yesterday they also released a DECEMBER 2018 security update, as you can see here...

I have used TMobile's awesome included international roaming with the Nexus 5, Nexus 5x, and OG Pixel. None bought through TMobile. You'll be fine.

Has anyone received the November 2018 security update OTA? I just turned on my Nexus 5x after a few months (my Pixel OG broke, and the 5x is my backup), and a few months of security updates downloaded and installed, but the last one that installed is October 2018. According to the...

OK, my wife just got it pushed to her OTA this morning. Android 8.1 with January patches. So, she's all caught up. Thanks!

I everyone on Oreo 8.1 now? My wife's 5x is still on 8.0 with the December patches. I noticed on the Factory images site (https://developers.google.com/android/images) that there is both an 8.0 and an 8.1 image with December patches for the 5x. It seems that when applying the December...

I thought that one of the changes in 8.0 was that manually checking for updates (as opposed to the regular behind-the-scenes checking) would override the rollout queue and give you any updates that happen to be available. But, that does not appear to be the case as I'm pushing the check for...
