The USB passive hub is a cheapy my work gave to all of us with the company name on it. You of course don't need a hub to get your thumb drive going...........just a USB-C OTG adapter. Could your USB-C OTG adapter not be working? I used the OTG adapter that came with my Pixel XL as it is the...

I tried out the USB OTG feature of the Pro 7 yesterday. I went into the menu and turned USB OTG on (settings, system). I used the USB-C OTG adapter that came with my Pixel XL. I first tried a 32GB thumb drive. It worked and I could access pictures and videos from the thumb drive. Next I...

When you connect the phone to your PC, are you scrolling down in the phone notifications, tapping to change the type of connection, and then selecting "file transfer"? The phone defaults to charge only when first connected to the PC and it will show up in Windows Explorer, but you can't access...

Grey only? I went to a local (north San Diego) store yesterday to see how many blue phones they had available for the launch today. The sales person checked and said they weren't getting any blue in for launch day and that none of the stores (maybe he was referring to local stores) were...

I have considered that, but if I order direct from Oneplus then I know I will get the variant (memory size/color) that I want. Who knows what will be available from a local T-mobile store come Friday? Will have to see what info is in the announcement tomorrow.

Thanks for sharing your experience on how the ordering process has gone in the past. I'll be a 1st time Oneplus customer and I was wondering how they handled the sale. I'll be going from the Pixel XL (original) to likely the 7 Pro. I read something about the 7/7 Pro being on Amazon, but I...

Must be a conflict. I use Light Flow on the Pixel XL. It gives me a fast flashing green notification light for charging and a solid green light when it is 100% charged. Under my "charging battery" setup, I have exclude from sleep mode checked, charged threshold set to 100%, enable light...

I listened to a voice message and deleted it and saw the little telephone icon was still in the top left corner of the phone (I use Google Voice for messages and texting). I had to swipe down to notifications and then clear the message notification (don't remember if I swiped it off or if there...

I have been reading and trying to get in-the-know with USB-C, but still have a long way to go. USB-C PD compliant and "rapid charging" showing on your phone may be two very different things. If the Pixel is showing "Rapid Charging" that means it should charge quickly, but doesn't necessarily...

Right because when you use an "A" connector there are only two power pins available (the supplied USB OTG A connector just has ground, data +, data -, and 5V). Those two power pins can only handle so much current. The USB C connectors have eight power pins (four ground and four power pins) and...

Should be fine. I have been testing all my USB chargers All the voltages and currents have been good (only one car charger in my testing below) Battery is <=60%, Using stock USB-A to USB-C Google cable Aukey AC charger PA-T1 AI port = 5.06V @ 1.93A = 9.7W Quick charge 2.0 port = 5.14V @ 1.93A...

I bought this one from Verizon yesterday (online). Belkin F7U004bt04-BLK. It seems like is is the only car charger to support USB-C PD. Since I was going to buy a new car charger, I figured I would spend a little more and get the one that supports the maximum power (and uses higher voltage /...

Saying OK google both turns the screen on and unlocks the phone. I assume this only works if you train the pixel for your voice (like prompted to during the initial turn on).
