MAY Security patch (Update: OTA is live!)

Re: MAY Security patch

Usually on the 5th is when they do it .. sometimes a day or so sooner.
 
Re: MAY Security patch

The 5th being Saturday this month, it may be Monday, the 7th. Or it may be any time between now (1:30 PM EDT) and tomorrow. I still haven't figured out if it's "The 5th", "the 5th or the first Monday of the month, whichever comes first", "the 5th, or the next workday" or if they cast runes every month to determine the date.

I mean they have never stated the exact date but normally.. at least since the Pixel 1 .. it is usually between the 1st and the 5th every month.

I hope battery life improves because it's **** right now.
 
Re: MAY Security patch

I went through this with Google Support for over a week. According to them there is a bug in the software and the system is draining the battery too much. I did a google chat with them, with screen share and everything plus sent them a debug log from my phone.
 
Re: MAY Security patch

exactly. I use to go all day with roughly 6 hrs of SOT. now I'm going from 100% to 30% from 7am to 1PM with under 3 hrs of SOT. my usage hasn't changed and no new apps installed

Very interesting! Guess we'll have to wait and see!

I would have factory reset by this point if I had that bad of life.

Agreed. I keep meaning to do that but don't have the time, since I use my phone for work and stuff. Plus I need to make sure my Google backups are current as well.
 
Re: MAY Security patch

I only had my Pixel 2 for a couple days before the April patch came out but I have noticed that standby drain seems pretty bad on mine. If I don't charge overnight (if it's over 60% I don't charge it) I'll see 10-12% drain in around 6 hours. Even my S7 with most of the same apps wasn't that bad.

To top it off I still have touch issues at times. I've noticed with this one if you try to use two fingers to zoom in maps or the camera sometimes it flakes out and the screen starts jumping in and out trying to zoom or move.
