Chat with UK Customer Support

*UK Pixel 2 XL Pre Orders*

For what it's worth - I had a chat with UK Google Support just now. Attached is the transcript which I suggest you take with a pinch of salt :confused:
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] sdelcegno:
Are you sure it's not image retention. Honestly you will probably have the same issue with a new unit.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Badger50:
Sheesh, they can't even spell big words correctly like.....read? Grain of salt taken! More like a block of salt actually :cool:
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Traceguy:
There should only be button burn ins, but the ghosting includes the black part. How is this even possible seeing as it's OLED? The black part of the nav bar is turned off right?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Andebad:
Or enter the command manually in adb.

Just did mine this morning and changed resolution and dpi to see how it affects battery on this device for a few days. If you only want immersion mode just enter the first command.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] mrwicked:
It could possibly be image retention, But honestly I'm fine with getting a replacement. I have noticed that besides that, sometimes I have to pull the charger out and turn it around for it to start charging. Does the same on my car charger I bought from the google store. Checked my pixel xl and it charges fine so I know it isn't the chargers.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] sdelcegno:
I would return it also then. I have not noticed any image retention myself yet. If this does become an issue it will be months before they have a true solution like new batches of panels with new QA standards.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] androidpixar:
Yeah same here. I got mine on the 17th, checked it over the weekend and has the burn-in/retention. Really wish I didn't have to return it but after paying a grand for it, this issue this early is unacceptable.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Itachisasuke:
My Panda isn't supposed to ship until November 20th but if we can't get a succinct statement from Google about this issue I will likely cancel.

I know LG has shown some quality control improvement but with the issues over the multiple Nexus 5Xs that I've had and now the issues with the QA/QC on the POLED Screens my confidence in LG components is starting to make me want to avoid anything and everything out of their factories.

Worst case scenario would be picking up the 2 XLs little brother. Bezels be damned at least the QA/QC seems better from initial delivery and has a Samsung Panel.

I know technically you could keep RMAing the 2 XL until you get a "working" unit but I've had enough of that headache with my 5Xs to go through it again.

Just my worthless 2 cents.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Rodeojones:
Man, everyday there's more evidence that this phone is an absolute turd. Mine is scheduled to ship tomorrow. I haven't yet cancelled it, but with every post I come across I'm more tempted to do so. I guess there's no harm in still getting it and returning it if it's a dud like so many others.

Google really messed up with this one.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] blcklab:
I am planning to trade in my pixel buying direct from Google. I'm definitely going to wait before I sent it in in case I have any screen issues
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] androidpixar:
Yeah RMAing it and hoping for a better one in exchange isn't for me either. Gonna return it and wait it out..see if Google has a solution..pity tho..the battery life, camera and the software is miles ahead than any other Android device currently available. But it is what it is...2-3 months down the line if the issue still persists, I'll have to opt for the LG V30 which too will be a gamble as well given its screen has issues as well. Really don't wanna go the Sammy route.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Traceguy:
Even with night mode on "lowest intensity" The screen looks immensely different than having it off completely. I highly suggest you disable it. You are giving customers a false impression. I have already heard a youtuber say negative things about the XL after he checked it out in a Verizon store. He said it had a "yellow tint" to it and seemed as if there was a "blue light filter" on the screen.... Well, that blue light filter, if you know anything about the Pixel 2, is "Night Mode"
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Flames1:
I also have screen burn-in even thought its faint i can still see it and now its bothering me and i just got the pixel 2 xl on thurs oct 19 . Google needs to recall and start all over again.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Poloasis:
Mine was supposed to be shipped today but I cancelled late last night. I was ok with the angle color shift after seeing it at a VZ store but the screen burn-in did for it for me. $1k+ on phone shouldn't have that much issue. I'll wait it out to see if a revision is been made if not I'll stick with my XL that got replaced for my 6P battery issue last 2 weeks.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] FlamingAngel82:
I've actually dealt with that chap before, and he was super helpful in the past when I had issues with my Nexus 6P (not the battery issues, my camera "purred" when focusing during video recording!) - I did wonder if the displays would be different in the UK. Still got bloody AGES to wait for mine, so it'll be interesting to see what happens over the next few weeks.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] blcklab:
Based on these posts I took a look at my original Pixel. Low and behold it's there. I'd have never even noticed. Not sure if it bothers me since under normal circumstances I won't be using it in a way that purposely exposes the Burnin or perhaps it's image retention.

I use Waze a lot and then Instagram or Facebook or my RSS feeder
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] sdelcegno:
My pixel XL 1 has burn in so it will happen to that as well. In fact every oled I've ever had has burn in.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] iceman4357:
Right. I did the same thing after seeing all the burn-in reports. Figured my XL would be the same and it is. I have a ghosted upper bar and lower bar. Granted it might have taken longer than a week to burn in.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] bjorktribe:
I don't know what youtuber you're referring to, but likely it was in regards to the color tuning whether they knew it or not. I would much rather have Night Mode disabled, but we started experimenting because the burn-in after just a couple months is bad on all our OLEDs. Check out the photo I attached of the S8+ demo. It's 6 months old and has severe burn-in. It's no big to just turn off the filter for a customer while they're using it. We're just trying to preserve these screens as best as we can.

Regardless, I was only sharing my thoughts about the new display to add to the discussion.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Andebad:
After turning on immersion mode for a day I can barely tell it's even there after staring at it for a few minutes on full brightness. Im hoping this will mitigate the damage until Google officially announces something about all
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] toakster:
The following is just my opinion:

Those who are going to or have already cancelled their orders for the new Pixel 2 XL are making a huge mistake. This is such an amazing phone. There are always going to be a bunch of negative things that people have to say about any device that is just put out and a lot of times these things get a lot more attention than they should. As for the screen: This has been blown WAY out of proportion. Yes the "realistic" colors may not be for everyone, heck even I was unsure at first, but after using the device for my usual activities (watching youtube, browsing the internet, etc.) I found that I prefer this display over the over-saturated one on my first gen Pixel XL. I'm convinced that the "burn in" that is happening, is not permanent. When these first reports came out, I was scared and checked mine with a gray background to find "oh no mine has it too!" After having the screen off all night (I turn off always on display overnight), I checked first thing in the morning, and low and behold the "burn in" was gone! Again, this is my opinion, but I really think this is the best device out there overall and has way too many pros to cancel or return over a few preliminary reports of screen burn in, which for me has proven to be temporary image retention. Just wanted to throw some words of encouragement out there for anyone who might be on the fence about this. You will more than likely not be let down. For what it's worth, I'm still within the time period that I could return my device for a full refund if I wanted so this isn't some attempt to make myself feel better about being stuck with it. :silly:

Just my $0.02
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] MacTheRipperr:
Hey, I really do appreciate your feedback. I one hundred percent agree that this is hands down, the best phone I have ever owned. But I've had it a little over 72 hours and the image burn is still there. My S8+ doesn't even have any screen burn on it and I've had it since release. Just turning on that S8+ and fumbling through the Samsung experience. Ugh I hate it. I really want to love this phone. But $1,105 after taxes and the preferred care added on. I just don't know if I can accept that. But like I said, I totally agree with you that it's the best damn phone. And the colors to me were more pleasant. The blue tint doesn't bother me either. Thanks for your feedback
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] chazall1:
So far I have not had any image retention issues. I received my Pixel 2 XL on Oct 19th.

Running Nova launcher not pixel launcher.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Mele:
Replacement on its way, Lord into almost $2000 on this phone now, I know the $900 charge will be dropped off but still.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] efenili:
Not making excuses but Burn-in is not unique to this phone and is just what happens with OLED. Samsung didn't make a panel thats better at reducing burn-in as much as they created the software to try and mitigate it as much as possible....from what I understand.

Google could theoretically apply the same sort of adjustments to help reduce burn-in. Or you could always use those launcher apps to make sure the launcher isn't always there in black.

Again - the screen has it's issues and is NOT a good screen. But this is a little bit of just piling it on for the sake of piling it on. I doubt anyone would have ever noticed this had they not be staring at dark grey/white screens to show the other issues. It probably happens way more often than is reported on a lot of other devices but its so faint and nobody every stares at blank screens that it was never reported.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] painfree:
Was Planning to Ship Tomorrow but a deal breaker

Yes there is now too much evidence regarding the screen problems and my shipping on the 24th I will probably cancel as I cannot handle multiple RMA hassels and phone setups and my 6P is still fine and has a louder speaker than the 2XL. Oh well I was hoping this would be a phone with little defects but now.... Oh well it seems that my ship date on the 24th was not accurate as I got an email that it has shipped today so I will see what my experience will be and perhaps since I never (except in car) have brightness above 10% I will not see the screen burn issue.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] byproxy:
no way 6p speakers are louder than p2xl. i used my 6p for 2 full years before p2xl. loved it. but p2xl speakers are easily twice as loud as my 6p speakers were.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] markwebb:
Like the Note 8.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] rsbenedict:
Even if it truly is burn in, you will not notice it in everyday use. I just tested my Pixel XL just for kicks and it's there. Whether it's burn in or retention it doesn't matter. They only reason I know it's there is because I went looking for it with a gray image that I would never have looked at otherwise. I would have never discovered it if I weren't looking for it and I suspect it's been there on all my OLED phones in the past that I have used. I have used Samsung Galaxy S series from 1 - 4 before moving to LG and LCD screens. I don't know which of my other phones other than the Pixel XL also had OLED screens, but I suspect there were a few. I have never noticed it, not ever. This coming from someone who has been using Smart Phones before the iPhone existed. :)
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] lopri:
Burn-ins do not show in screenshots.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Traceguy:
I checked my old LG G Flex 2 for burn ins, and did not see any. Mind you I've had the phone since 2015, and YES, the G Flex 2 uses *drumroll* P-OLED!!!

So it would seem not all P-OLEDs burn in. There are some dead/stuck pixels on the screen, but that's all I could see. I will check again later tonight. I was short for time and didn't spend enough time checking.

Probably just a poor choice of words.

Hi There,

I have an VW Touareg I from Year 4/2008. It is the Facelift Model with CANBUS 2.0

Buy a Erisin 5056T Unit (PX5 / 2 GB) with integrated VW CANBUS Decoding Box (Decoder inside the Radio it´s not external Box).

Inside the Unit i try different Types of CANBUS settings (Default was 1 (VW / Scoda))

I am little Frustrated because of the limit Implementations of decoding CANBUS Signal inside this Unit.

Whats running:

ACC Signal (Radio turn on when i plug IN the Car Key and go into "Sleep Mode" when i pull the Key out.

Steering Wheel Keys: Only Loud / quiet / Phone / Mute keys are running (can´t change any Responsible of keys in the Unit) seems hard coded

Screen for Camera Switching if i switch my gear into Reverse

Whats not running:

NO , really no Data inside the vehicle App.

Reaktion of draw lines for the backwards Camera change/move only when i turn 100% left or Right on the Steering Wheel. And only for millimeters....

Is there any Experience with other Units that can better Communicate with VW Touareg?

Regards

Ben

Hello guys,

I have the exact same problem with a Erisin PX5/4gb/Android 9.0, but I have a Treg from 2005 with Canbus 1.6. I have contacted Erisin, sent them my original wiring diagram and am waiting for their response. in the meantime I have the latest MCU updates, I'll try them today.

Have you tried the Canbus setting VW_TOUAREG(Hiworld) ? For me it doesn't work, but maybe for those of you who have Canbus 2.0 will work.

If I find a solution or I have any news I'll post them here, hope you do the same, maybe we will get this unit to decode all the signals from Can-Bus.

If anyone wants the updates images, just let me know and I'll upload them.

Regards,

O

Formatted ext sd via recovery...now I can't install, add or even format. I tried on pc and with twrp again by even using repair and changing file system. Anyone know how I can format this card? It's a 64 gb SanDisk. I can't find any solid solutions online. Thanks.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Garbonzo17:
I have no idea of your hardware, but 64gb is where the switch from SD-HC changed to SD-HC (technically 32 can be either, but generally 32 are HC) and older hardware that didn't explicitly support XC wouldn't work... It either doesn't see it at all or sometimes it will work until you get to 32gb, then you can't write any more data.. I have older SD readers that so both.

But any phone or reader for the last 3-5 yrs handle XC, which has a theoretical 2tb limit, SanDisk has a 400gb microSD.. Insane.

Anyway that's all moot if it used to work in your phone and reader, but just doesn't anymore. Mostly if they're pre-formatted is exFat. If you formatted in TWRP I think it probably defaults to ext4, but TWRP can do a variety of formats.

I got to say though, if you can't reformat it again and TWRP that doesn't sound promising. Perhaps there is an Android app that will let you format with more control than the default tool (I have no idea since the last phone I had with SD was a Droid running GB)

Sorry I didn't really offer a solution, I have had problems with micro SD cards in general with generic brands... But I generally format them in the device I'm using them with and then I have a small USB thumb drive size thing that the micro SD card goes completely inside of and windows generally mounts whatever format it might be, provided drivers are installed.

Also sorry this is so long-winded I tend to do that when I'm voice dictating...

If you have more info that might be helpful drop a line. It doesn't take much to bugger up a microSD card though. Could be as simple as damage (static or physical) when removing it from the phone and putting it in the computer. But the proximity of time when formatted to not working makes that unlikely.

And I'm rambling again.

Cheers.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tmobilefan906:
Yes. It formatted to ext4.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tmobilefan906:
It even displays error in twrp
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tmobilefan906:
And this is when I load it default on a pc
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Garbonzo17:
Well the Windows machine won't read ext4 without third-party software... But I don't see why that would keep you from formatting again. And if TWRP does the same thing, errors out, then I got think the card's had it.

If you're trying to use it in the phone you should leave it in ext4, but if you're trying to use it and windows you could try to format it exFat in TWRP.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tmobilefan906:
I tried changing file system to a different type so that I could wipe it in twrp. But even after I do that, it still says it's ext4 on the pc
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tmobilefan906:
I tried eaus partition tool...didnt work. Any suggestions? Thanks.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Garbonzo17:
Nothing really.

I am curious though. Can you give me specs on the card brand/model/serial?

Also, I have had good results with UFS Explorer Recovery pulling data when nothing else will. I think there's a free trial, but you plobably have to pay for it to do anything other than verify it 'can' successfully recover, not sure, but if it is data that you need, it is good.

I only ask about the card because I found in the past I bought like three identical adata brand SD cards and one appeared to be DOA and I couldn't do anything with it and lo and behold adata had found a firmware thing that they could actually fix and they had a tool that did it.

If you want to go down a rabbit hole there is a sticky XDA thread https://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1355528&page=2 with various degrees of helpfulness. Its a little dated, but the ideas are sound for most of it.

Really i just googled "sd card bad after formatting twrp" and lost 2 hrs...

Let me know if you have any success, I realize this is either about data or just personal curiosity like mine... Because a probably sub $20 card is not worth this kind of investment... And if its a high end part, probably has lifetime warranty..

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tmobilefan906:
Don't want data off of it, just want to format it. Its a SanDisk plus 64 gb card
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Garbonzo17:
Did you request RMA?

https://kb.sandisk.com

I'm not sure if they are lifetime warranty or not, i have a couple ultra plus cards from Costco that were lifetime warranty.

Now on the less ethical side, if it's a current model, plckup a new one then swap/return. But obviously thats evil.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tmobilefan906:
I would swap....but my data is on it. Lol. I can't delete ANYTHING on the card. Can't format, or right click a file and chose delete. It somehow got from ntfs to ext4

Tried using my old Samsung charger (that used to work on my Pixel XL)at my bedside lamp table last night and when I woke up this morning after sleeping bout 7 hours my battery level was only 60%?

It may have more to do with the cable than the charger. I was using Volta magnetic cables with my 6p and they didn't work with the p2xl. Had to switch to regular cables. The OEM charger DOES charge much faster than my old ones but I'm assuming that's just a voltage/wattage thing.
