[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] R3drag0n:
It showed for me yesterday after doing the google now cards, but now after I updated to 7.1.1 I am trying the same method and I just can't get the weather to show up. Is it working for anyone on 7.1.1 DP1?

Btw - I've also noticed that if you turn off google cards the weather won't update and will disappear in a few hours.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] r3ix:
i did nothing. Only installed pixel launcher and after that showed weather widget

Hi

Make sure the location is on n go to the app permissions n turn on the location permission for pixel launcher. It works
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] R3drag0n:
Yeah I got it to work now, I do have to have Location turned ON and refresh cards so that it shows up. Unfortunately the weather doesn't seem to update automatically unless you turn location ON again and refresh cards... can the weather be updated without having location turned ON?

Installing help

Hello. Please could someone provide instruction how to install launcher without root as system app?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bcs296:
It appears my Pixel Launcher APK is installed in system/priv-app/ rather than just /system. What is the difference? Swipe to the left for Google Now is currently working, but the weather widget is not. This is with the latest 7.1.1 APK and location permission granted.

EDIT:

Nevermind, weather widget just started working.

which apps does not hide nav. keys like gta sa and other apps... is there any solution make them full screen..? withou root..?
[Moto G 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] acejavelin:
Full screen mode is called for by apps that request it, if it's not implemented in the app you cant do it.
[Moto G 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blckbear:
You can but in a not so comfortable way

There are some apps in the PlayStore, for example GMD AutoHide or Fullscrn, but they are kind of tedious apps to deal with, I Hope this helps
[Moto G 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EMONESSboy:
thanks but that app require root

Anyone got this ,last night when I j stalled the pixel launcher apk as well as adding weather to the date,it installed a weather app.Now I have updated to 7.1 the weather comes on the date but no apk installed
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] ChrisAC84:
My date doesn't have the weather. I'm driving myself crazy trying to get the weather widget lol
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] combat goofwing:
Mine doesn't when I first boot up then after t mins it's appears ,strange
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] Rippley05:
The weather in the top right corner is part of the update in the pixel launcher. You have to manually search for the pixel launcher in the play store, update it. Then make sure you have weather cards enabled in Google now, pull down in Google now to refresh and that should give you the weather icon/shortcut
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] RoccoN4:
On my phone it said Pixel Launcher was not available in my country. Used a PC and went to the Play Store, downloaded Pixel Launcher to my phone from there. Working perfectly.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] elreydenj:
I will surely test when my device gets here in about an hour. Has anyone who has received there non-Verizon version unlocked the bootloader and tried to use Android Pay? Thank you in advance.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] jaythenut:
Sorry to say you can't unlock your bootloader its been locked down
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] SysAdmNj:
He asked about non-verizon. Are all versions locked down?
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] jaythenut:
Oops miss read lol no you can unlock the bootloader
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] nexusmaniac:
Hey op!

I've had my pixel XL all day now. I just unlocked my bootloader and re setup my phone... Sadly Android pay isn't working now that I've unlocked my bootloader :'(

Just as a warning to all other users :P

Although, YMMV!
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] wtherrell:
I read that unlocked bootloader now violates Safety Net, so Android Pay won't work at present.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] nexusmaniac:
What kind of crap is that Google?! Jeez :P

How difficult is it to just let us enjoy our devices, ay? :)
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] clockcycle:
Previously you could unlock bootloader and as long as you didn't root or hid root from certain apps you could still use Google wallet.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] B3501:
Same with the 6P, unlocked bootloader now breaks Android Pay.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] jamexman:
It's the app version not the phone. There is another thread here some people withe nexus 6p if using the latest version of Android pay will trigger that, but if using an older version all is fine.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] nikitis:
You need to complain to the banks if you want this fixed. The Banks have dictated to Google what is required to allow paying via phone as it's their loss if you report money stolen.

While I agree, I feel that with a rooted Device using SU, which requires that you allow applications to have root access. Apps cannot have root access without you granting it. And also having the card information heavily encrypted so that even if somehow a hacker gets your data via an app that you install, it would take them 1 million years to bruteforce decrypt the file, it should be safe enough, but banks are too dumb to realize this and impose their will on carriers, and google in our case. So complain to the banks, and google.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] riz157:
Probably not the best type of thread but it's for anyone who has faced any issues or defects with Pixel XL. When I'm expected to fork out £819 for a top end of phone I don't really expect any types of defects.

Overall I'm quite pleased with the phone but I've noticed the pulse notification light is bit odd. Green colour is perfect but red or orange colours show as white and pink!!!

I'm sure that's not how it's supposed to be?

I've reported this to google who are looking into it and will get back to me.

Anyone else tested any features which aren't as expected or noticed any defects please let us know.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] ChrisAC84:
The power button feels weird, like it doesn't wanna press unless I push a certain way. Might be just me, though
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] neilmcd:
There's a dead pixel on the left hand side of my screen. I've tried to ignore it, but it's really bothering me. I think I'm just going to return it and hope that the replacement doesn't take months to arrive.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Smallsmx3:
I would replace it for sure!
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] riz157:
I second that replace it, not worth it riding more dead pixels. I'm returning my black one due to notification light issue.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] riz157:
That doesn't sound right to me, power button on both my silver and black can be pushed from any angle or part and it works.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] southernstyle:
I don't know how to test LED light, is it turned off with ambient display?

my only issue so far is the lack of double tap to wake. The phone is super fast and responsive. I'm at work, so I can't play too much, but damn is it going to get used all night.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] riz157:
Going into settings, notifications then tap on the settings icon and toggle on pulse notification light.

Took me a while to figure.

I couldn't find option to change colour so installed light manager to switch between different colours.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] jackdforme:
From now on, a dead pixel sounds so much worse than it is...

Is anyone having problems with very slow 4G speeds? Compare to my Samsung Galaxy S7 and the speed on this phone for the 4G networks is very slow I wonder why that is
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Belimawr:
is there anyway to get a charging LED? always liked to be able to see how charged my phone is by a quick glance without having to keep turning the screen on.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] El Daddy:

[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Slicktune:
So basically the phone runs hot??

No I was making a joke lol

I can't make claims about heat yet. I'm sitting in a car with the a/c blasting on the backside of it while charging. Lol

After some exhaustive testing against my Samsung Galaxy S 7 Edge I concluded that the upload speed using 4G with the pixel XL is about 10% of that of the Galaxy S 7 Edge I wonder why that is and I hope that it will be an update to the modem that will fix this problem I would love to hear from the rest of you what kind of upload speeds you are getting using the 4G network with your new pixel XL phone thank you very much for your help
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Ryno77:
Mine is actually a tiny bit higher than my wife's note 5. My download was a 1.5 slower though. Same server same network. This is on Verizon btw.

Thanks for testing it since the pixel Excel is using the Qualcomm modem that is also used indifferent Qualcomm processor units I'm quite surprised about this lack of performance but it seems to be doing well on your end

Am I the only one whose "OK Google" configuration fails because it doesn't recognize the voice when you have to repeat it three times? It is like the mic doesn't work at all in phase of configuration, but if I try and record a video the mic works :(
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] ucphillyjae:
One issue I'm having is the phone is rebooting constantly, and crashing, powering off and it repeats this cycle constantly. I just did a factory reset in case any data I imported was corrupted. I'll report back the results.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] imnuts:
Agreed. I think it's just a lot less sensitive than my past phones. One has to actually push it on the Pixel XL versus tapping it on my other devices. I'm sure in time I'll get used to it.

A big I found with Google keyboard. It copied my settings over, including no vibration on key press. However, it kept vibrating when trying until I toggled it on and back off.

Sent from my Pixel XL
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Ryno77:
I noticed this too, surprised me. I was at work when I got the phone so I didn't fix everything immediately. Later when I was to use the keyboard I noticed it was black and vibration was turned off. Factory resets are getting easier and easier with everything automatically setting up.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] matteventu:
Mine also make a weird and loud noise sometimes when autofocus works... Gosh I'm terrified.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] ucphillyjae:
Try to get a recording of this somehow. I'm curious.

Video I made about the autofocus noise issue.

You can hear it at 18-19, 22-23, 28, 30, 40 seconds.

The other noise please ignore it, it's my bed and my Nexus 6P that has some mic problems lol
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] bsg411:
I think I hear the noise.....I would send that back.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] ExcuseTheN00b:
The only noise I have heard is sometimes when I put my phone down you can hear a click noise coming from the rear glass. It almost sounds like the camera hitting the back of the glass which I know happens on my Nexus 6p. I'm not slamming or dropping the phone down. Its just when I set it down that it makes the noise. It also doesn't matter if I have a case on it or not. I know my Note 5 & 7 and Edge 7 didn't do it and even my wife iPhone 7 doesn't do it so I am not sure. Not a huge issue as long as the back glass doesn't break. I am keeping a case on it until I get my skin so that it doesn't break.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] wtherrell:
Yes, but I have to used whipped butter.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] RPAusCan:
I actually prefer this. I found the power button on my 6P too sensitive and I was constantly turning it on by accident. I'm enjoying the stiffer button on the Pixel.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Simpleimbecile:
Was it perchance plugged in and charging? A lot of people seem to be having this issue, I contacted google and got the safe mode/reset to factory settings spiel, I think it's software, but you can rma it through google if you contact them through the settings>support feature. I'll post the troubleshooting below if you want to give it a shot for ****s and gigs

There were some scratches on my screen and they overnighted me a new phone immediately. It sucks that I see people who's orders still haven't even shipped and I'm on my second device
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] jjayzx:
When I saw that thread in questions and answers and noticed it this morning when phone was plugged in. The other time my phone was plugged into my battery pack. It can't be overheating cause phone felt cool to the touch.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Nospine:
I've been filming a bunch with this phone and today I noticed that one of my videos has a curve of light to the right of the screen; it's only clearly noticeable in certain situations. I managed to take a screenshot of the effect using the camera app and it can be clearly seen at the bottom part of the camera feed... I doubt this is normal, right?

EDIT: Also when the camera focuses you can clearly see the curve move around (As in, if it were part of the camera, or if light is reflecting off a part of it). Don't know if that helps figuring it out what this is but it's there.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] ExcuseTheN00b:
Some people on the Android forum on Reddit have said that it is a halo/lens flare effect. I have not had any issues so far but keeping an eye out for it.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Nospine:
Right, there's quite a few people reporting camera problems :L

Also, after seeing that curve in my footage, googling for my problem I found this video as well

https://youtu.be/pfz8YmHmeJ4?t=2m48s

And if you head to 2:48 you'll see he's having the same issue as me. Now, my phone only has that issue; you can see some other problems in that video but my Pixel has none of those except that darn curve of light.

I'm thinking I should wait for a bit and see what happens in the next month or so since even the replacements units will probably have the same issues.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] ExcuseTheN00b:
How many GB and where did you purchase it from?
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Nospine:
It's a silver 128gb from the Google Store. Currently using a case but the issue is there with and without the case.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] ExcuseTheN00b:
I have the 32gb black from Google store. I wonder if it has something to do with the white glass on the back and the light hitting it just right.

Edit. If your case is a solid color and not clear than it wouldn't matter about the glass.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Nospine:
It could possibly be that. I believe the guy in the video I linked also talks about how that could be the reason, but I get the feeling that I read about someone with a black Pixel XL who also reported seeing this... I dunno to be honest.

And this, so far, specifically happens in lower light conditions or if I try to film black or dark objects such as my laptop where you can clearly see it.

I suppose I'll have to keep testing the camera to see if I discover anything new.

EDIT: Actually, it doesn't just happen in lower light conditions since one of my videos was filmed in a well lit area and it's still there. (It can be seen again to the right)
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] krypto1300:
I have this. Had it on my EVO 4G back in the day and I think it's an HTC thing.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] jjayzx:
That might be some sort of reflection of the curved lens on the back of the back glass panel.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Nospine:
It could possibly be. I've seen people with worse problems with their cameras (such as the guy in the video I posted).

But do you think seeing that reflection is acceptable? Is that a thing that actually happens in the camera world or did Google screw up in their QA?
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] HyperM3:
I have noticed that the upper half of my screen seems more yellowish than the bottom. I have my light bar set to halfway like I have with all my phones and the ambient light sensor active. If I pull up a full white page its very white at the bottom and gradually gets to a yellower white at the top. If you turn the brightness all the way up you dont notice this. However, its probably the brightest screeen Ive ever seen with the brightness all the way up.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] romracer:
Mine is also like this. I've noticed the Settings app with its all white screen and Chrome with no tabs open (its an all gray screen) are great ways to see this. I figured I'd give it a few days at full brightness and if its still noticeable when I turn it down, its getting RMA'ed. It looks awful.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] southernstyle:
If I could explain what was wrong with my phone I would, but unfortunately Google nor I can. It appears my imei number was not registered. They couldn't figure out out, my carrier couldn't. So the csr set me up for an exchange. Interesting turn of events.

So if your phone didn't connect to your network properly, you might need a new device. ??
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] riz157:
I'm asking for a replacement due to screen getting really hot.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] ryanbmw51:
I can't believe I'm actually participating in this thread right now. But I got my XL 32 gigabyte black yesterday. Noticed immediately that the power and volume buttons were very loose. They work as their normal function should work but they're very loose and when you moderately shake the phone around you get a rattling sound. So I went ahead and got on the 24 hour tech support and told them that I didn't necessarily want a new device right away but that I wanted to at least get the issue documented for now. And they insisted on sending me a new device. So I guess we'll see how that whole process goes.

Also this morning I had set an alarm to remind myself to check my father-in-law in for a flight at a specific time. Alarm went off I went to the airline page entered his information and hit submit and phone completely freezes up unresponsive and I had to hold the power button to force a reboot to get out of it. Really frustrating for the amount of money we are spending and not even having the phone for 24 hours. Not only that I've had my phone off the charger this morning for about 3 hours. 30 minutes of on-screen time and I'm already down to 70% battery. I know it probably needs a little more time on the battery but these other issues are basically inexcusable.

I've had so many phones I can't even tell you. I know a lot of people on XDA go through phones pretty fast. I am one of those guys. My last three phones were Nexus 6p 1 + 3 and Galaxy S7. Never experienced these issues with those devices.

I will have to say something positive and say that the hardware is pretty nice although the phone could be a little thinner in my opinion. The software is a dream when it's not rebooting. And the camera is out-of-this-world amazing.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] calinormy:
This is a BIG problem with lenses. And this is not a problem that could be resolved by software , as google say.

The flare is a lens effect related to a source of light in a frame. The best lenses in the world, all the lenses has this effect BUT what I saw in your images IS WAY beyond any acceptable level. Think about a hollyday in summer..and the sun is in your frame...or a picture with a cake ...anything with a source of light in a frame will destroy your pictures.

I THINK THIS IS A BIG PROBLEM FOR THIS PHONE
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] stevew84:

[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] iceman4357:
Google said they are going to release an OTA to address the flare.

I think this will be a good test for us Verizon users to see if it gets pushed at the same time as the unlocked.
