    Ring tone and volume change without adjusting them

    I also have the random reduction of ringer volume from its normal value of 6 down to 2. Also, while listening to audio over Bluetooth in my car, sometimes media volume will randomly drop to zero, making me think that my stream stopped, but when I look at the phone, it's still playing.

    Google broke my pixel 3

    I've had Issues since the December update as well on my 3XL. I've got radio instability (cell, wifi, and blutooth) which requires a reboot to fix the poor signal. I've got freezing and lags in apps that require me to minimize them and switch back to get them to respond again (Chrome is the...

    Pixel 3 XL- native way to assign unique ring tone for all contacts?

    In the phone app, go to the "Spam and Call Screen" page in Settings and choose silent for Spam callers. Any numbers that Google has identified as Spam will not ring

    Auto-rotate not working properly since the last update!?

    I also have the issue of the volume dropping to an annoyingly low volume sometime in the afternoon every day. I thought maybe it was Tasker not resetting it properly, but now I'm not convinced that's the case

    Love the phone, but i keep missing calls because I don't feel it vibrate

    Weak vibration has been a problem with the entire Pixel line. My OG Pixel XL and my 3 XL both have inadequate vibration levels. I miss phone calls all the time because I can't feel it vibrate in my back pocket unless I'm sitting on it. Absolutely no excuse for such a low level. It stands in...

    Low Signal Quality After 10 Update

    I've had general, what I'd call instability, in all of my wireless radios since the 10 update. Without getting up and moving, when I have poor performance, I can toggle airplane mode on, then off again about 10 seconds later, and performance is restored.... for a while. The issue effects...

    Not a big fan of the new lift to wake change in 10

    Pretty sure you can go into the system settings for the Phone app and turn off the ability to display over other apps

    Dark mode - is it a big deal to you?

    The only thing I don't like about the new dark mode so far is that I have a few apps where pictures in the notifications are inverted color while dark mode is enabled. Not all apps, just some

    Screen rotation bug?

    I have an oddly specific issue with screen rotation and I'm wondering if it's just my phone or if it's due to Android 10. I didn't have this issue with the app on Android Pie I have noticed that when I have my screen in portrait orientation, if I tap a notification for an app that forces...

    Can use Gesture navigation with a case on

    It is a bit awkward with the case right there, but it seems to work okay with a little bit more deliberate of a flick. I have an Incipio DualPro case

    Pixel 3XL from BlackBerry KeyOne Virtual Keyboard

    The one, two, and three finger right-to-left swipe to delete word(s) is what keeps me on the Blackberry keyboard. If gBoard had that, i'd probably switch. Although, I do like the ability to store up to 5 pre-canned responses. I made one my email address to make logging in to things easier

    Separate phone ringtone and notification volume?

    I use Tasker to set my Notification and Ringer volumes when I'm in range of my work WiFi. It works pretty good

    Bluetooth audio with BMW stopped working after 8.0 update

    Seems to have been fixed in Android 9, at least so far. There's still time for them to break it again before the final release

    Using Outlook as Mail Client On New Pixel XL Or Try Stock/Gmail App

    I use BlackBerry Hub also. The best part is that when you pay the 99 cents/month for the hub app, you also get Password Keeper which is pretty great too (especially with how easy the fingerprint reader on the Pixel XL is to use).
