[Pixel C Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tevil:
First it was speculated to come with chrome OS (at one point it was found to have been originally planned for it), then the thing was sent out with bugs (I had the random reboot and now severe lag) that were promised to be fixed by software and never were.

NOW I read were not even getting Android P even thought the tablet is more than capable in handling it.

I have to be honest Im SEVERELY disappointed in googles newest devices. The Nexus and Nexus S were solid, the nexus 5 was a miracle, the 5x was a slight taper down with the bootloop issue but google made sure to take care of a lot of those people. Now my pixel 2 already had the mic bug, was replaced and now has the loose USB C issue and will have to be swapped again. On top of that the pixel c was being sold new about 3 or 4 months ago and now google is basically telling those people "hey guess what you bought something were not supporting!"

Honestly this was a pretty pricey tablet but between the random rebooting and atrocious lag that never got nor will apparently ever be fixed, I for one am completely disenchanted with googles devices. I see the watch may be coming out in fall but I dont know if I can bring myself to even be curious about it.

How do you guys feel about the tablet? Do you have any of the issues? Do you plan on buying another from them?
[Pixel C Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Galaxyninja66:
I don't own this device (yet) but having only every used Nexus tabs (and I have used them all) and hearing about Pixel devices, google needs to either A: reform their in house hardware development system (fire and hire designers, get more people to scrutinize design, better manufactures, etc.) or B: Scrap in house hardware design and go back to other OEM's and re-open the Nexus program, preferably with Samsung and HTC, because let's be honest, the best Nexus devices were made by them hands down. LG Nexus 5 is the ONLY exception and even then the Galaxy Nexus was better. I know option A would cost A LOT, but that extra cha ching is just an investment really. Better hardware sells better and builds more confidence in your brand, which is pretty much non-existent in the Pixel Line up. Case and point it sucks that you are having these issues, and reccomend you sell your Pixel C for a good Nexus 9 or Nexus 10 if you don't mind leeping back down to android 6.0.1 (or staying at 7.1/8.1 if you don't mind a lack of camera or flash)
[Pixel C Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Monfro:
I think this is the best Android tablet ever built, even if it is a couple years old now.

Great build quality, great screen quality and dimensions, fast and great battery life.

Nvidia X1 is also the best chip ever produced by the company: great Gpu (as K1) but this time also solid CPU.

It is perfectly enjoyable even stock.

I had no reboot or lag or other problems here.

I am coming from Nexus 9 (previously owned also Nexus 10 and Nexus 7 2012) and Pixel C is a great improvement
[Pixel C Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dagazz:
I am also quite disappointed:

At least I expected that ChromeOS would be ported to the Pixel C. Reading some discussions here, the Pixel C is already fully prepared for ChromeOS. Even the bootloader seems to be a ChromeOS-Bootloader.

The next disappointment was that the Pixel C wont get an official Android P ROM. I expect that LineageOS will deliver a P ROM. We will see.

I also do not intend to buy a Google device again if I can avoid it. Because of an broken display I recognised that Google has a pretty descent support. But the devices are much overpriced, like Apple. But a Killer-Argument for me is an official Support for a custom ROM. (Because I normally intend to use my devices MUCH longer than the manufacturers intend to deliver updates.) Otherwise I would have an Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 (because of the pen). So it is possible that i would by another Google device, but it is not very likely.

Hello folks,

I have a Pixel sailfish and I am on Nougat 7.1.2. I would like to just root it via Magisk. Bootloader is unlocked and i tried the latest version of TWRP 3.2.1.2 and latest Magisk 16.0, Magisk Manager is 5.7. Heres the problem, if I tried to flash TWRP and then reboot into recovery (to check if TWRP sticks) I could not access my files because they are all encrypted. I did removed all pass codes, fingerprint etc. Is there a specific version of TWRP, Magisk that I need to install on Nougat 7.1.2? My process is as follow (assume fresh Nougat is onboard):

1. Boot into bootloader

2. Fastboot twrp zip

3. In twrp, flash twrp .zip

4. Reboot into recovery to see if twrp sticks

5. If 4 passes, then flash Magisk zip (version 16)

6. Reboot into system

7. Install Magisk manager apk file

8. Open Magisk manager.

Please let me know,

Thank you very much
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] maxwell0312:
I would like to point out that my main goals are: run stock 7.1.2 and root. That's it, no fancy kernels or anything. 8.1 and 8.0 stock are killing my battery so i would like to do some tests on 7.1.2.
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] TENN3R:
You can try set a pin, twrp in nougat worked perfectly.

So when you go in twrp with a pin set, it will 100% ask you the pin for decrypt.

Also, not sure if you made a writing mistake, but you have to fastboot the img, not the zip of twrp
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] maxwell0312:
Thanks for this but i still have the same problem. Setting pin in Nougat, then reboot into bootloader, fastboot the .img file works. When in TWRP, it asks for my pin, i enter and manage to decrypt my data. Then I proceed to flash install tpwrp.zip. Process ends well but then when I reboot the phone, then reboot into TWRP (already installed). TWRP is there which means that the installation process is ok. However, this time, it does not ask for my PIN, there is only a slide bar to "Swipe to allow modifications". I did so and my file manager only has a bunch of files with weird letters. I assume these are encrypted. Obviously, I cannot flash install Magisk.zip here. So I tried the following:

1. Fastboot the twrp.img to get into TWRP

2. Do not install TWRP but go to file manager and flash the Magisk.zip

3. The process ended well. I rebooted

4. Phone booted fine. I then installed Magisk Manager v5.7 (latest from XDA) via apk.

5. Installation ended ok.

6. I opened up Magisk Manager and got stuck at the Boot Logo.

I hope these are detailed, please let me know if you can help me.

Thank you very much
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] TENN3R:
Looks like some kinda problem with this twrp version.

Have you tried an older one, just to be sure? From what I remember, latest version made for nougat was 3.1.1 (?) but I'm not sure.

Maybe just try a 3.2.0, for example. Just boot it to avoid problems, don't flash the zip since you are not sure.

Otherwise, you can always try the manual boot.img patch method for magisk, so you don't have to use a recovery (official magisk thread -> installation instructions -> Via magisk manager)

These are only my ideas, not sure if they're gonna work or not.
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] maxwell0312:
Thank you very much for your help, I managed to fix and make TWRP stick, so no problem there. Problem now is Magisk doesnt work. Is there a problem with my order:

Flash Magisk.zip in TWRP.

Reboot. Install Magisk Manager then open it. I got stuck at this step. Magisk Manager is frozen upon open.

If anyone has any ideas, please let me know.

Thank you
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] TENN3R:
I think for this you better ask in magisk forums. Stable version of magisk also installs the manager apk, I noticed that beta versions don't.

You can find better support in official magisk thread :good:
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] hardhead808:
Hey

What version of TWRP did you use..More like what did you do..I am having the same problem.
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] maxwell0312:
I used TWRP 3.1.2.0 and 3.2.1.0. All failed. I figured that after flashing TWRP.zip via TWRP Recovery (which you get to after you do fastboot boot twrp.img from PC) , you would need to pick the correct Slot to reboot. Once you boot into the correct slot, then flashing Magisk.zip would work, I think. I kept messing around with reboot into A and B and got tired of it. Now I switched to Resurrection OS for sailfish, got all I want: theming and rootless support. I actually tried to go back to stock 7.1.2 myself to test if batteries improved. It turned out that it didnt really matter much. Also, if you are into Substratum theming like I do, its better to use an OMS rom
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] hardhead808:
Fixed (update)

I flashed TWRP 3.1.1-1 then of course went in a recovery bootloop...Just flash SU..... PROFIT
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] fiverings:
I found that when I use the uninstall magisk then flash magisk zip, if you watch closely, magisk will install some files to slot b also. Most of the time it will automatically download magisk manager. As far as battery life, my pixel XL was never better on 8.1. I installed the app is 9 preview 2 and my battery life is even better. You should move forward not back.

Good luck
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] maxwell0312:
What is your SOT when go back with root? Also, what are the versions of TWRP and magisk that you use?
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] fiverings:
TWRP version is 3.2.1-2

Magisk is 16.0 version

Magisk is 16.4 installed version

Magisk Manager is 5.7.0

I read somewhere that I should be on 16.2 or 16.3 I read that after I installed 16.4 it didn't work at first, but about 4 or more hours later it started working. I'm certified and pass all tests. After installing Magisk, I always clear cache & data from play store app, then clear just cache from play store services.

Sot, I usually can get around 8 with 15-20% left

Good Luck
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] maxwell0312:
Thanks. I am on the smaller OG Pixel with 2770 mAh battery. I got 6h15 mins of SOT with 5% left. Not sure if this is normal
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] fraxture:
Was this problem ever resolved? I've been having problems that seem similar. I'm trying to use TWRP with Magisk and the stock google 9.0 for my Pixel, but I keep getting stuck. Wonder if someone has complete set of steps with specific versions of each of the necessary components.

Hello everyone.. I'm sorry for bad English but try to understand it's important..

I think that Huawei cheated us with p20 pro..

We paid 890 euros for one of the best mobiles in the market and Huawei used second rate display of amoled.. And please tell me did you paid 890 euros for second rate display? I don't think so..

So follow the instructions and you will see what I mean.

Go on a completely dark room, without light at all..

Use brightness 100%

Click the video and turn your phone to watch it on full screen..

W8 for the a little bit and you will see white colours coming out from your screen and tell me..

Is that normal for amoled panel?

No its not.. Black should be completely black...

I took my phone to Huawei fix center and they refuse to see.. They don't recognize it as problem and they refuse to give me my money back..

What do you say?? Check the same with s9 and s9+.

P20 pro user.

[Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers] Noexcusses:
You will see white noise around of the screen and in. The. Middle of it..

That's is not 100% amoled screen. Do the same check with s9 and s9+

[Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers] Sc00p007:
I can see what you mean. I can see it even on low brightness. I have never done this test before, so cannot comment on other oleds I've owned.

Could it be compression? I say this because after seeing the effect in this video. I tested others, and i found that the severity of the effect is lesser. Also the uniformity changed between videos, whilst staying consistant to each.

Your video was much more pronounced than some others, this makes believe that there is something else in the works.

I know when i use a pure black wallpaper, the screen is perfect black. Also im pretty sure the AOD has pure blacks too :)
[Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers] Noexcusses:
It doesn't work on wall papers..

On Video is easier to see
[Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers] JadranB:
[/COLOR]

That thing you see is video compression noise on YouTube. If you really want to test AMOLED screen, use program in the link bellow. ANY video on YouTube, even pure black, will have some noise on it, there is no way around it.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/d...llReviews=true

If you didn't saw that on S9, that just mean that S9 has sligtly lower contrast calibration when playing video. There is nothing wrong on P20 pro AMOLED screen, except if you have faulty one

I can see that noise on YouTube video you posted even on my computer screen, in Premiere Pro video editing software, so it's there, in the video
[Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers] inaser207:
No problem for me
[Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers] Noexcusses:
The best display in the world has low contrast calibration??

PlS mate..
[Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers] Sc00p007:
JadranB thats what i was thinking. Some oleds crush the first steps of grey to hide the issues of banding etc maybe other phones crush that first step whilst the p20 pro doesn't :)
[Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers] MikeMTS:
I tried the app, completely black on auto brightness, but I do see light bleed at the top and bottom if I manually adjust the brightness up past around a quarter of the way - and this is while standing in a completely dark room at night with no windows. Not something I think is ever likely to become an issue in real world use though.

A quick Google search tells me that it's been an issue for some people on some Galaxy phones as well (only saw references to the S6 and S7 in the top results). I never checked on my S7 Edge, as I suspect I would never have noticed even if it's there to a minor degree.
[Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers] JadranB:
Of course, why not?? If it adapts contrast dynamicaly to source, eg YouTube video. Almost every consumer screen today does this, and does it using different calculations.

I repeat, nothing wrong with the P20 AMOLED, test it with the right tools, not some YouTube video

---------- Post added at 08:29 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:15 PM ----------

Even on some S9' s and Iphone X. In fact, that is not to uncommon for AMOLED screens, but the degree you can perceive it differs. No problem if it's not obstructing you in use
[Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers] Noexcusses:
All I know is that amoled is amoled. Black should be completely black without white noise..
[Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers] JadranB:
Again, this video is not BLACK, it is YouTube compression artefacts. NO YouTube video can be completely black. Even the pixels that seem black are never black in video eg RGB 0.0.0
[Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers] Noexcusses:
Did you turn your phone on full screen??

Why 5T hasn't got the same issue?? S9 and s9 plus also not
[Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers] Sc00p007:
I tested my sisters s9 on a black level test. We could just about see down to number 4 before the crush to black. This was full brightness.

On the p20 pro i could see all the way to 1. That's on 20% brightness. However, at 100% the difference between 1 and 0 is very pronounced. Maybe the gamma curve is also affected. At first glance it feels like the gamma is also getting higher after a certain brightness.
[Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers] JadranB:
Yes, full screen, i see nothing unusual, except some glow. What screen resolution do you use? Is it on "Smart"? This video you posted is 360p, so it could be software interpolation and/or bandwidth. Try this one, 4K video, if you insist on YouTube, and see if you see any difference. Put your display on FHD+

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ktUfdv1rfzQ&t=130s

It could also be that your phone is heating to much

[Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers] mudnightoil:
It's blatantly obvious you're trolling.

Also the P20 Pro's screen is Samsung. It's not as insanely contrasty as the S9's, but it's about as well calibrated and colour accurate as you're going to get at the moment.

The only thing I don't like about it is that it's 18.5:9. Too tall and slender. I hate this aspect.

Give me 16:9 any day.

[Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers] Jonathan-H:
If you use true black, it is black. There is nothing wrong with the display. Maybe a software issue. Just try to use the phone normally instead of finding a one use case scenario where it has some issues to make yourself justified.

This screen may be 1080p, but it is sure as hell better visually than any of the newer samsung screens.
[Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers] Robertdotnet:
I have just checked and there is no such issue with my phone. I have just turned the brightness up to 100% and started a You Tube video, and the black looks like the same black I see when I switch off my screen, because I have just tested that as well. I think it may look like it isn't full black, because the nuance of the screen's black is different from the rest of the body.

You should try this too. Run a video, then turn the screen off with the power button. See if it looks the same :fingers-crossed:
