You sure that the bitrate was set/fixed on your Pixel 4 XL? Never worked for me.

I am also a defender of LDAC and loved using it on my P3, then switched over to my P4 and noticed that I had to force the bitrate EVERY time I made a connection. Then, a long time ago, like early 2020, after a firmware update, developer options didn't save in that regard. Every time I went to change the bitrate and left developer options and checked again, it reverted back to the standart settings. So on my P4 XL, setting the bitrate has been broken ever since. I reported this to Google, nobody gave a **** as of now.

I'm not sure if this is also the case with the P6 Pro, I'll try it in a second, have my XM4 next to me. Gimme a few.

--

Edit: Alright, so, I just tried it out with my WF XM4 and it works o.o

It saves "Optimized for Audio Quality (990kbps/909kbps)". F*** me, finally it works. Jikes.

So, it's not grayed out for me and it retains the setting.

It also works without a problem - no audio dropouts, no stuttering.

Do you have a case? What case do you use? It is big? Maybe its **** and it's blocking the phones antennas.

Also, what headphones do you use? Do they function without problem with your P4? Maybe they broke only recently, best try them out - now, again - with your old phone.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] madmanco:
On the 4XL I had the issue where every time I connected I had to reset the rate, but once I did I could go back in and it would still be set. Confirmed working by the marked improvement in sound quality.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] madmanco:
I have a case, took it off, no difference. I have the Sony XM3s. Still no issue with 4XL.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] droidguy22:
Same issue on my P6P, when set LDAC bitrate to 909/990 in developer options audio dropouts and stuttering. I also checked without case, still same issue.

However if you keep the phone stable for a minute, the connection stabilizes and issue goes away, but it comes back the minute you move the phone.

I think, this may be happening with every P6P and it may be a hardware limitation/issue or software issue.

Either way it's a potential deal breaker for me.

I don't have much hope that Google will address this within the next 14 days.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] tomyjwu:
My Pixel 6 with ath-m50xbt2 has the same issue.

Only when turn off screen will the connection stablized and not stuttering.

[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Lexeres:
I have P6Pro and WH-1000XM4, the same problem, but it doens't work normal on 600kbps too. Better, but with stuttering too
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Alekos:
The issue will be fixed by "late summer". cross your fingers.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] KERKEDAGAIN:
If you (all) haven't already done so, try toggling the 'Disable Bluetooth A2DP hardware offload' in Developer settings. I would consistently get stutters once I turned the screen off prior to doing that..worth a try, at least
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Lexeres:
KERKEDAGAIN, does it make a sense? In theory it will make mono-audio or low quality what doesn't make sense with any bitrate...​
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Lexeres:
Omg, late summer? Not spring? 6 months?!
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] google2468:
not sure if it's the same issue, but i need to turn off wifi for that high of a bit rate or i get severe stutter.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] caitsith810:
I wouldn't recommended it for Sony WF-1000XM4 users, I use them, and doing this brought upon static at times.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] blackhawk:
Doesn't hurt to try. Androids can be twitchy... I would play with all the Developer bt options.

Can also try temporarily turning off Developer options and see if this helps.

Also network reset.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] KERKEDAGAIN:
To be sure, I'm recommending trying to toggle disable on...
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] caitsith810:
That's what I did. It gave me staticky feedback at times.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] KERKEDAGAIN:
Interesting.. Thanks for trying, sorry to hear it didn't work for ya.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Lexeres:
If Wi-fi is disabled then LDAC working normal on 600kbps, but 900kbls not yet. With enabled Wi-fi only 300kbps working normal.

Ldac 600-900 fixed after february patch!

BUT! Need to reset Network setting in "settings - systems - reset options - reset wi-fi, bluetooth and network".

After that my Sony wh-1000xm4 start to play on 900kbps without any stutters ))
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] Abdiel1224:
I know that this been asked 100 times but I don't see a good answer about this. Im on T-Mobile US when I was on CN version 5g was present. Now that im unlocked and on Global I'm not getting 5G just LTE. There is any radio file or something to make this happen. If someone is on CN version and wants to send me the radio file I will play with it. Thanks
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] tensux:
if you get this to work i would love to know. i am on t mobile in the us as well. however i have heard that the china rom showed 5g when it was not actually 5g. its been claimed that it is a hardware difference.
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] Abdiel1224:
I thought so but when I check was real 5g at least in Arizona. I will be working on that

You´ve to update the google photo app.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] coldheater:
If you transferred your data, it remembers what version you were on using your old phone. Just uninstall the update and then update it and it will update it to the pixel version and you will have it.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Pro Questions & Answers] swapnil360:
Hi,

I have a Redmi Note 7 Pro (64GB/Indian Variant). I'm going to sell the device and it was running CandyOS (AOSP). In order to reset to stock, here's what I did:

Wiped everything using TWRP

Downloaded the latest MIUI (India (IN) MIUI 12.5 V12.5.1.0.QFHINXM) from this link

Ran the flash_all_lock script

When I reboot, I get the error: "The system has been destroyed". After unlocking with MiUnlock Tool, I can get back to fastboot and install custom recovery again and the stock MIUI 12 ROM boots up normally.

How do I lock the bootloader properly?
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] pensador:
helowww,

I noticed that when I turned T9 OFF that I've almost no lag when I type my sms.

It was SO annoying!

I turned everything off btw....so no suggestion for words etc....

I have it now on ABC instead of T9 and it's great now...

Also it's better because of the message a few days ago to increase the sms typing area...:)
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Questions & Answers] drkvlkn:
I didn't document my software settings prior to starting a flash attempt on my Note10 SM-N975F/DS. Now I'm stuck at the 'An error has occurred while updating the device software' screen. And now I don't know the firmware or software version I need to download. Frija is asking for the CSC but I don't have it.

Any suggestions on finding the correct software version to download?
[Google Pixel 6] Morgrain:
Wazzup.

Over at the Pixel 6 Pro fair, we have quite the number of people having problems with random reboots. We are trying to narrow it in - Android12? Pixel 6? Software? Hardware?

So - anyone here with the same set of problems? Or does the Pixel 6 not have that kind of issue?

For reference: https://xdaforums.com/t/random-reboots.4353231/
[Google Pixel 6] Justin933:
I have gotten several random reboots as well. 256gb seafoam pixel 6. In particular, I was using "Frep" automation app (unrooted, used pc to start server) to do repetitive image searches in a game. Also the phone was sitting on a wireless charger while doing this. I noticed my phone felt pretty warm, wonder if it could be overheating?
[Google Pixel 6] mruno:
Could be a naughty 3rd party app. Have you tried safe mode?
[Google Pixel 6] MichRT:
I posted this here:

https://xdaforums.com/t/p6-bluetooth-problems.4354185/post-85857497

My random reboots (or crashes that forced me to reboot) almost entirely stem from the wifi+bluetooth implementation. I found a sure-fire way to crash it during setup. Without word vomiting here, connecting the P6 with and to other devices has proved more difficult than any previous Pixel (for me).
[Google Pixel 6] Morgrain:
Not yet. It's also hard to "force" it (the reboots, I am not able to replicate it manually). Yesterday it just randomly happened whilst the phone laid idle next to me, thrice at the morning, about one time through late afternoon, then one time evening. I just notice the screen lighting up, then the Google logo comes, meaning the phone restarted.

I'm also pretty sure that Bluetooth/Wifi settings differed when the reboots happened, ergo at some times bluetooth was on, then when it rebooted, bluetooth was off. At no time when the reboots happened had I a bluetooth device connected. WiFi was online though, all the time.

What all the reboots have in commong though (at least the ones where I am concerned), is that the phone is just laying next to me, or somewhere, being in idle - doing as far as I know, nothing. It never happened when I used the phone or put it under load, so my P6 never "crapped" out under me. That's why I am not that concerned about this as of now, but it's certainly a nuisance to unlock the phone every time with my darn pin.

(Concerning 3rd party app) - I'd say that's unlikely. I copied my files over from my Pixel 4 XL and have not yet added one singular other app to my P6 Pro, so it should have gone naughty before my transfer over.
[Google Pixel 6] kaadaj:
Hi! I experienced a big crash on the pixel 6. When I was configuring telegram, the app crashed and then the screen got black. After a minute it rebooted to the Google logo with a loading bar underneath. It was blocked in that state, but I could reboot it with volume up + power button.

I was pretty scared as the usual button down + power button didn't do anything lol
[Google Pixel 6] dirtyissa62:
12 (SD1A.210817.036) on my pixel 6, occurred randomly when opening camera app. Happend 7-10 times.
[Google Pixel 6] Morgrain:
Odd. I never had a problem whilst using the phone, my phone only rebooted when laying idle (even though today I had no reboots at all, alas I didn't use the phone much, maybe 2h SoT without any heavy lifting).
[Google Pixel 6] dirtyissa62:
Something in android 12 is bugging around, maybe we have to open support tickets.
[Google Pixel 6] Morgrain:
I just talked for a while with a Google rep and he said that they are not aware of any reboot problems, no people over at Google Forums have reported such a thing. "We do not monitor Reddit or XDA" - so he said he opened a support ticket to the responsible team and they would look into it, he also asked that I / we report/feedback this under -> Settings -> Tips & Support -> Feedback.

We also talked about a lens flare problem, that at least the Pixel 6 Pro has. If you shot some photos where the sun is directly shining into the camera, you might want to re-check them. Most of mine have either some sort of big circular green dot in them, or a big beam of light like in a phone with a very bad HDR processing. It seems to be some sort of software glitch, he also reported that.

So hopefully those things can get fixed.
[Google Pixel 6] dirtyissa62:
This was the follow-up email:

Thank you for contacting Google support.

I'm having similar restarts while phone is sitting on a table doing nothing. Tried a factory reset and was fine until overnight on charge and it happened again.

Also have had a few times where wifi has stopped working for some reason. Not sure if related.
[Google Pixel 6] DoobyDroid:
Not had any reboots but quiet a few app crashes in especially FB will be scrolling away and bang just closes also Amazon app ,
[Google Pixel 6] Justin933:
Well that was interesting.. When it rebooted that time, it gave me an error screen saying it could not load and may be corrupt. I had two options, try again and factory reset. Try again got me back running, but I'm wondering do I got as defective device now.. or if it's software related.
[Google Pixel 6] Justin933:
So after a lot of messing around, I think I have narrowed down what may be causing my reboots. It only seems to happen when I am using "Frep" to play macros on a game while charging my phone.. the phone gets pretty hot, and reboots when I tap the screen or try to swipe home or recent apps. Maybe its overheating, or maybe its "Frep" playing naughty.. but Frep did work perfectly fine on my old $200 used Nord N10 5g. Will update if it reboots while not doing this.
[Google Pixel 6] harryw66:
no reboots or crashes so far, not doing any gaming - but using phone for email, surfing, whatsapp etc and also a work profile for MS outlook and teams.
[Google Pixel 6] niupixel:
I have/had similar issues with my Pixel 6 (128GB - europe unlocked).

I was transferring old data via cable from my old (Xiaomi Mi A1) to the Pixel 6. This resulted in sluggish performance, crashes every 15 minutes. The crashes would randomly occur and behave mostly like this:

Try to unlock phone with fingerprint sensor

Fingerprint sensor lights up, nothing happens, no haptic response

Swiping up to the PIN entry. Enter PIN and hit enter. Nothing happens. Now freeze.

Screen turns black and it takes phone to reboot on average ~7minutes

Factory Reset; Installed apps manually (standard messaging apps, no games etc), better performance, problem persists

Factory reset; boot into safemode. It now took way longer to provoke the issue. But it still happened.

After this I contacted the customer service and they will provide me with a replacement. But now after a night of idle, the phone was working for 3-4 hours without any issue at all with most of my apps installed. It just now went into a random reboot (could only notice because it asked for PIN because of the reboot). But not the 8 minute blank black screen type of reboot.

I am really unsure what is the issue at hand here. But have to say that experience is less than ideal.
[Google Pixel 6] OuHiroshi:
Mine just happened last night, not charging or running anything 3rd party apps (all from App Store). I tried to use the camera after eating dinner and noticed that double clicking power button doesn't open the camera anymore. After unlocking the phone it appears that the phone has restarted.
[Google Pixel 6] OuHiroshi:
Is anyone running Private DNS on their system like Adguard DNS or NextDNS? I did some searching and people reported some private DNS were causing Android to crash. It was suppose to be fixed in previous Android versions but it could be back again.
[Google Pixel 6] sic0048:
I haven't noticed any random reboots (and the lock screen will require a pin to be entered after reboot and says this on the screen, so you should know the phone rebooted). I've had the P6 since the official release date. In fact, I haven't restarted the phone in days.

I run a wide variety of apps. Some from the Play store and some sideloaded. I think that any reboot issues are probably app related. Remember that A12 is very new and the are surely still some compatibility issues that app developers haven't found/fixed yet.
[Google Pixel 6] Bearded&Bazerk:
I've had my p6 Pro since 10/25 and haven't had any major issues with it at all (knock on wood).

The past few days however I've noticed that my p6 Pro would ask me to input my pin because it's been restarted.. it's done this maybe 4 times so far. After reading your post just now. I then realized that I had recently downloaded a few apps (one from playstore one not) : remini was one of them and telegram was the other.
[Google Pixel 6] THRUSTer:
The Pixel will cause you to enter your pin a lot because “device was manually locked”, even if it didn’t reboot.
[Google Pixel 6] THRUSTer:
Mine actually shut down while I was charging and wouldn’t turn back on for several minutes.

After it did, it said it had shut down due to overheating (it wasn’t hot). But it also said it was charging when it wasn’t even plugged in!

When I actually plugged it in, it force shut off and went into the charging screen. Eventually it discharged fully and won’t charge back up or turn on. It’s bricked and they’re sending me an RMA.

The RMA was supposed to be here by today but it hasn’t even shipped.
[Google Pixel 6] Bearded&Bazerk:
Oh sorry, I should've mentioned that along with the prompt to unlock with my pin was a message saying that the phone must be unlocked with my pin after device restarts.
[Google Pixel 6] Bearded&Bazerk:
Not sure if everyone in this thread will get a notification after I post this (I'm new to this site), but ive been one of the P6 Pro users that has had a bit of an issue with my phone restarting itself while idle.

Upon posting my thoughts here and scouring the web for answers, digging through threads to find a possible cause or fix I discovered someone mentioning that while dealing with their device randomly rebooting while idle they would periodically get a message saying that pixel launcher is not responding followed by the option to stop it, wait or something else I forget what it was.. I quickly remembered that I had gotten these messages once or twice also. This person mentioned that they had attempted to mitigate this issue by using a different launcher and claimed that the issue had stopped by doing this.

Of course willing to try anything to get this to stop and went ahead and redownloaded my Nova launcher and fired it up. I'm not claiming it's a fix. But it's notable that I too have not had the rebooting issue since I made this change. It's been about 2 days now.
[Google Pixel 6] nelstar1:
I had the same random restart /reboot issue when idle on my Pixel 6 128gb non-pro . It happened on or off charge.

I now have received a replacement Pixel 6 128gb non-pro again and restored from the same Pixel 2 backup as before and completed the same final app setups. The replacement has not rebooted so far, 4 days as of writing.

More detail:

The device I received at first would restart during the night between 00:00-01:00 every two days. It then began to reboot during the day also when off charge.. I tried factory reset and safe mode, this did not help. I made sure to try different chargers. When it rebooted during the day, this was the point to order a replacement.

There is more combinations I could have tried to narrow down the issue, but I had enough. It is almost certainly a hardware issue in my case. Lets hope the new one stays ok.

In case batch matters. I am in the UK near London. Received faulty first device from C***ys on 27th Oct. The new, to date, working device arrived on 09th Nov from the same retailer.

I hope this helps people.

Addition: I am using stock launcher.

Addition 2: The problematic first P6 non-pro device did not get hot at any point before the restarts.
[Google Pixel 6] nraudigy2:
Mine sometimes won't wireless charge. Wired charging works ever time though. Have not seen random reboot yet. I wonder if people are using old SIM card.
[Google Pixel 6] THRUSTer:
SIM card shouldn’t affect operating system stability
[Google Pixel 6] mosio:
I have P6 for 2 weeks now. Not a single random reboot so far
[Google Pixel 6] MosaabA:
I have the Pixel 6.

I started having the same issues after the 5th of November update.

My device would suddenly shutdown whenever I go outside, when I investigated the issue, it seemed like whenever I'm using 5G network, the phone would crash.

I tried to find logs, but sadly it's hard to do without adb (afaik).

I was able to replicate the issue by turning Wi-Fi off, restarting the device, then as soon as I put in the PIN, I use any app the uses data, the device would instantly turn off.

I later found out that whenever that happens, the lower portion of the device (right behind the fingerprint reader) would get extremely hot.

It might be worth mentioning that I charged the device using USB type C through my USB PC ports (which is not problematic as I use it to charge other devices)

At last, the device could not connect to my carrier network AT ALL (not being able to receive calls, etc) so I sent it for RMA
[Google Pixel 6] Bearded&Bazerk:
Yes, although I didn't outline it in my post, I was also having issues with the device getting hot at the bottom of the screen in the middle. It seemed like the more I used it the hotter it got. That along with the phone randomly rebooting is why I finally decided to just get it replaced.

Sidenote about getting it replaced: My replacement was supposed to come in yesterday, I did receive a box... However the box was empty. Somewhere out there there's a FedEx employee enjoying my pixel 6 pro.

I suggest that you have your replacement shipped to a FedEx location for pickup
[Google Pixel 6] badaas:
So happy I returned my P6 without even opening the box,,, good luck with the beta testing on Google's behalf.. sigh.

Can confirm 1 random reboot on my 6, in about a week.
[Google Pixel 6] rsr86301:
Using Pixel 6 (non-pro) 128gb with 5 Nov updates and standard launcher:

I have experienced about five random reboots (that I know of) since getting the phone early November. It *just* happened again with my phone resting (unused) on my desk. My earbuds signaled a loss of connection with the phone (next to me) and when I checked my phone it was rebooting on its own. It was not hot (over-heated). It had no loaded apps running in the background. It was not charging. I had manually rebooted my phone a couple of hours earlier (which I do each day).

Additionally, I have noticed a couple of times upon waking in the morning with my phone charging overnight that it rebooted during the night (again, no apps running in the background).

This does not happen often, but it does randomly happen.
[Google Pixel 6] pdahiker:
My wife's Pixel 6 reboots multiple times a day - it is a 128gb version. I found that clearing the launcher cache seems to alleviate the problem for a little while, so I am going to try installing Nova on it (as mentioned by someone else in this thread) and see if that makes a difference (long shot, but who knows?)
[Google Pixel 6] pr0xibus:
Yup, had to send my P6 back to Vodafone for warranty.

Had a single reboot the day after I got the phone, then a day after that it would reboot every 5-10 seconds, Fastboot with wipe format didnt do anything.

The only things I done since having the phone is Add an ESim and enable Adaptive Icons (I think thats what it was called).

One thing I noticed when at the vodafone shop and the assistant was looking over it, was the screen would do things by itself, i.e. Swipe open, etc
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Deano1889:
What's the best wireless charging to go with the GP6 pro?

I want the maximum 15w speed and not fussed with Googles proprietary and expensive pixel stand 2.

From what I can tell most don't actually come with the power adapter too also that's another additional expense and would need to be 15w+ output?
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] bouchigo:
You'll be stuck at 12W max. no matter what charger you get, unless it's Google 2nd gen charger.
