I've googled this and looked here, but can't find anything. When I'm on a call and the 'call screen' in on the display (full screen with number, mute, keypad, speaker and add call buttons), the call is fine. When I navigate away from that screen and try to check something else on my phone...

I like Volume Ace. You can set up a widget with profiles and then just two clicks to multiple custom profiles (shhh, medium, all loud). Like to know for certain that media/browser is muted when in a meeting!

I've been doing some home remodeling recently. I noticed when I go to my place for a while and my hands get all dry and dusty the PFS is horrendous. On days when I don't go, it works pretty darn well. It really is an amazing difference. The dryness of your fingers makes a huge difference.

Gator, I have this problem too. i find that when I'm calling a company/commercial establishment and going through voicemail hell the volume is unadjustable and always at the highest level no matter what (the slider goes up and down, but volume doesn't change). I did have some success with...

Thanks, guys, but no luck. I have my car and earpods connected but that wasn't the problem (and when I do this at work they're usually very far away). I first tried a speakerphone call with BT just turned off and no luck. Then I told the phone to 'forget' the phone and car and it still stays...

Is this a known problem? I was hoping mine would be fixed with Jan update. P6P and when I make a call on speakerphone, I cannot adjust the volume of the call; it stays at the highest volume. When on the call, I use the volume buttons, but they have no effect. I hit the three dots on the...

I had this problem pre the Jan update. I changed it from Optimized to Restricted and the percentage went down to normal. When the Jan update came, the app went battery hogging crazy again and i just went in an toggled back to Optimized then back to Restricted and restarted. It has been fine...

The reactions work with other Pixels. Is that common knowledge? GF and friend have Pixel 3s and I can do reactions to only their messages. This has worked for a while.

Yes, rebooted and actually had the comcast guy come out and he gave us a brand new router. Weird...same problem, but every other device (multiple computers, other android phones and tablets) connect with no problems. I tried the regular network and the "5" network and both have the same...

This stinks. Snare, I feel your pain. Thanks, B. Diddy. No, there is no firewall and I tried the forget/reconnect. It's a small, pretty much home-office, so it is only a basic Comcast router. It just started happening with this particular phone. It's infuriating because it hung just trying...

Hey, need some help here if you don't mind. Old Pixel, Pixel 3XL and now Pixel 6 Pro owner. Since I got this thing, certain apps won't connect to my wifi at work. I thought it would get fixed in the Dec update, but who knows if I'll ever get that. Browsers work fine, but certain (many) apps...

Thanks, F22. I found it. You have to go to Apps and Notifications --> See all [x] apps --> [three dots] Show system --> Android System. "Car mode" was turned off and I turned it back on.

OK, I don't like AA and think it's a pain more than anything with the notifications every time I plug in the USB in my car (2016 GM). I turned off a notification and I can't turn back on again and I messed some things up. It was a couple days ago and I'm remembering from memory, but I also...

Thanks, guys. No, I did not have DND or flip to shh on and would rather not do it that way. I'm going to go with Derek's recommendation. I tried that solution before, but it didn't seem to work. I tried again and it initially didn't work, but I think you have to hit the power button TWICE...

I want to be able to dump calls without the caller knowing that I'm dumping them. I just want the caller to think I'm not near by my phone. I used to be able to do this by hitting the side volume key and it would silence/not vibrate any more and the screen would go off and the call would go to...
