I was afraid of that; but it does raise a question: How legal is it for google to force you to buy a new phone to access a service for which you are already paying?

I am beyond pissed off with google fi! My wife has multiple voicemails, but to access them we have to create a PIN. Easy? When I looked on-line to find instruction for setting the PIN via the Fi website, I found “In the 'Home' tab, under 'Phone settings' click Voicemail.” But for my wife's...

All: Thanks for the replies. I did not realize that 'Flip to Shh' was a Pixel-only app. Seems so basic/useful that I cannot imagine why every phone doesn't have it. Just to check: The Tasker app has been mentioned. Is this https://tasker.joaoapps.com/ it?

IMO, the setting ‘Flip to Shh’ is one of the most important settings on a phone and it worked exactly as expected on my old Pixel 3. However, on my new OnePlus 12, I have set the setting ‘Slip to mute incoming calls’; but today, for the second time, a spam call came in while the phone was...

I have a OnePlus 12 and one of the very first settings I turned on was 'Flip to mute incoming calls'. So, why did my flipped phone ring this morning when I received a spam call?

This phone has been rooted since day 1. On the previous phone, also rooted, the navigation bar did not appear. Sorry for having wasted your time. Just checked my recently retired phone and the navigation bar appears on it as well. Guess the difference is the color - on the old phone, it was...

VidJunky - Thanks for the reply. Attached is a screenshot, I have 'circled' the nav buttons...

I have a OnePlus 12 that is rooted, up, and running. I disabled the various swiped gestures, because, for me, they are the cause of possible issues and I do have the navigation bar visible at the bottom of the screen. Question: Is there some way to hide the navigation bar when apps run in full...

Turns out the setting for WiFi calling is inside the Google Fi app. Thanks all for your help.

No I haven't. WiFi calling worked on my previous phone without having to call. What's odd is that I see nothing in settings to enable this. But, per your suggestion, I will contact them.

I recently purchased a OnePlus 12 from Amazon. Those a-holes, instead of providing the US model, sent an Indian model. The first thing this meant was that I had to get a SIM card. Now, I am trying to figure out how to enable WiFi calling. Searching on-line suggests: Open the Settings app...

May have resolved the issue: Saw a settings icon above the keyboard and was able to adjust things from there. Sorry for all the blathering...

It seems that I need to access gboard settings. Did some looking around and what tube517 suggested is what I found. I opened Google Play, asked to see system apps, and I saw gboard. It had one big button - uninstall. Clicked that, it did something,t hen showed two buttons: open and update...

Not on this phone...
