I'm having exactly the same issue!

I got the phone today and booted it up for the first time. I selected my language and as soon as I pressed get started it froze, then got stuck in a bootloop. I fixed that by factory resetting from within recovery.

Once I'd gotten through the setup it crashed again when I clicked on the apps button in the optional setup. Because of this I factory reset and set the phone up for a third time.

Third time I got through setup with know issues but the phone freezes/reboots roughly once every two hours. I've been searching all day to see if anyone else has mentioned this issue.

I guess this phone is going in for replacement. Does anyone happen to know how long that takes/ if I'm going to be without a device for long?
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] skyman631:
They told me 3-5 business days to get a replacement. I expect mine early next week.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Davmatjo:
Do you have to send the old device back first?
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Morgrain:
I just had 3 random reboots today. Phone just laid on the side of my table on my laptop, doing nothing. It was in the span of probably ~10 minutes each reboot. A strange observation I made - now that I removed my phone from the back of my laptop and laid it directly on the table, no more reboots. Maybe it's a coincidence, maybe it has something to do with the magnets of my Laptop (has quite a lot inside). Not sure what to make of this. It kinda feels like a software buggy-thing, but it's odd that it sometimes just comees and goes. It also only appears to be in absolute idle. I had my phone working yesterday for about 12 hours, incl. using it constantly with navigation, and it never faltered for once. That's why I'd say it's a software thingy, if it had something to do with hardware, it would reboot/fail when under load. But it doesn't.

Had 4 total reboots as of now (had the phone since 27.10).

First reboot was yesterday (28.10) morning when working out, phone laid idle around, booted up.

And now again 3 reboots, morning, laid around, did nothing.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] cloudraker:
So I've had probably a dozen in two days. I take my phone out of my pocket and attempt a fingerprint unlock only to be told that my PIN is required after a restart. At first I wasn't sure if it was actually rebooting until last night. It prompted me for my pin and upon entering it, the screen locked up for about 20 seconds and it rebooted.

This morning I woke up and was yet again greeted with the "PIN required after restart" and less than 20 minutes later it was the same thing. Only once hav I witnessed the "G" boot animation, but everytime I see my UI loading. So I'm not sure if it's always a full reboot or some times it's just the UI crashing. Everything on my device is stock.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Morgrain:
Did you transfer your old phone over with a cable, or backup, or did you start "fresh"?

Maybe we can narrow it down if it's software or hardware problem.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] cloudraker:
I did a partial transfer. I was coming from an iphone 12 so I transferred photos and contacts only. And I transferred via cable.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Morgrain:
Mh, okey. I came from a Pixel 4 XL and transferred everything over with cable.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] skyman631:
I used a cable to set up my 6 pro, but after the reboots I did a factory reset and left it with factory apps only, and it still randomly rebooted.

Starting to get worried now that there are several more folks with the same issue.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Morgrain:
At this point my best guess would be a software glitch, probably to do with Android 12. Would be interesting to know which versions you guys are running.

My P6 Pro is still on the old pre-release one (no update yet), meaning 210817.015

You can find that out under Settings -> About phone -> scroll down until you see Build number (last line)
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] skyman631:
They offered 2 choices. They can put a hold/authorize on my card and send new one, then I return old one once I get it. Or I just send the old one back and wait for the replacement.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Morgrain:
I noticed something interesting, after the random reboots, I got kicked out of my creditcard/banking app, it said that my "security ID features blabla something" had changed and that I would need to re-login and had to enable biometrics again (doesn't happen after a "normal" reboot). Anyone else experienced this? Maybe it is unrelated, will edit this if I should get another random reboot and will see if that happens again. At this point, my best guess would still be a software glitch, maybe something to do with Tensor & the new Titan M2.

By the way (cuz of this security whatever), my phone is not yet rooted, bootloader is still locked. So it's not caused on my end.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] cloudraker:
One thing I didn't mention and that I haven't seen mention ned in this thread is which devices people have. Don't judge me, by no am using an AT&T variant, not the carrier unlocked version. I'm guessing most others are using the unlocked version, but still wanted to toss that out.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Morgrain:
Jep, I am using the unlocked version (EU).
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] kboya:
No random reboots at all on the latest software with the November patch in the UK
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] StrangerWeather:
Same.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] kboya:
Hilariously I have just had a random reboot not even a reboot just a shutdown that then when I started the phone again started perfectly. It was at the point when I was on WhatsApp with a mistaken opening of the camera.

I've been voice typing, dictation and all the time. And using that in WhatsApp and various other apps including this one. It was only when I opened that camera mistakenly in WhatsApp that I had that shutdown. I'll keep an eye on this and see what happens.

Edit call on. I've just tried to replicate and I cannot. And by the way call on is supposed to mean: 😂 😂 😂

.

Another edit. I've just had another crash when I returned to the WhatsApp and then tried to move from the camera which is still active back to chat. The whole thing crashed. This is my first experience of this and it seems to only work in WhatsApp but not necessarily all the time. Happy days
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Morgrain:
I also had some minor hickups/app freezes, especially Outlook sometimes doesn't want to show me my e-mails, even though GMail works without a problem, but no UI crash yet. It's probably more Android12 related, than P6 Pro related.

Do you also run the old firmware?
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Morgrain:
I just had another random reboot this evening, phone was idle laying next to me. Login to my creditcard app still works with fingerprint enabled, so these two things are probably not connected.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] avetny:
Is happening when the phone is cold. Someone noticed (on a youtube), and it showing some green lines while restarting
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] dirtyissa62:
Same issue on a pixel 6, 12 (SD1A.210817.036),

Occurs randomly when starting camera app.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Morgrain:
Small status update: Today I had no reboots. Didn't use the phone much, maybe 2h SoT, phone was mostly lying idle. No major app update, no firmware update (still running pre-release .015) - still no idea what this problem is exactly or if it fixed itself.

Strangely enough, there seem to be four types of "reboots"

1. Some people here (and over in a Pixel 6 non Pro group) experience app crashes under little load (Telegram, opening camera), followed by blackscreen & followed by reboot after circa. 1 minute

2. Some people (like me) experience only random reboot whilst the phone is idle and doing "nothing"

3. Some people experience app crashes under high load (gaming, videoshooting...) followed by UI crash WITHOUT reboot

4. Some people experience app crashes under high load followed by reboots

Not sure if these problems are connected, or which of them might be hardware or software related.

What is clear, for sure, is that none of these issues should exist in the first place ./

The pixel 6 non Pro group:

[Google Pixel 6 Pro] kboya:
These are my first experiences of any shutdowns. Any crashes? Nothing else to report. I've not experienced any others

To be fair, they've not happened again. And yes, these things should not be happening at all. I'm waiting for all sorts of apps to update properly for Android 12 and the usual bugs. Thus far, I'm quite convinced it's all software related.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] 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 Pro] strongerlamb:
I had the random reboots/shutdowns from the moment I set it up. Opened the box (black 512gb - Aus model unlocked), ran through the setup including the November update, it shut it self down. It would shutdown a couple of times an hour from then onwards. The main triggers I noticed were it being put in my pocket, which guaranteed it would switch off, using the fingerprint sensor and opening the camera (I didn't get a single photo...). Tried a factor reset and i couldn't complete the setup process as it would crash before I could finish it.

Started a chat with google support on Thursday night, phone picked up by courier the next morning and apparently my replacement is enroute.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] skyman631:
Ok, so after rebooting many times Friday, my 6 pro has not rebooted on its own since Saturday morning. Since hardware does not heal itself, it seems an update of an app or some of the stuff that Google updates without telling us fixed the problem.

Have any of you who were experiencing similar issues noticed that it cleared up?

They haven't shipped my replacement unit yet and I'm thinking I should cancel it now.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] cloudraker:
Well I was hoping to update myself in this thread and see if anyone had any solutions as my rebooting has gotten completely out of hand.

I was using Android auto Monday and the song suddenly stopped and I looked down to see the boot animation. About 30 minutes later I went to unlock the screen and it appeared to lock up. About 20 seconds later, again with the boot animation. It did it at l ast four more times yesterday. Once while trying to launch the camera it did it again. Since I got the phone there has yet to be a morning where it didn't tell me that the PIN was required after a restart.

This morning my alarm didn't go off but my wife's did (set for the same time). When I rolled over to look at my phone, the always on display and as on but where the fingerprint logo usually is, there was a padlock. I assume that's the image displayed when you have a PIN but no fingerprint setup. Anyways the phone was unresponsive and yet again, boot logo about the 0 seconds later. This time however it got stuck on the "G" screen with a little line moving under it. It stayed that way for almost ten minutes until I held the power button for 30 seconds.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Morgrain:
A small update on the matter: I received my replacement device, set it up and didn't have any more reboots as of now. Doesn't mean it's a hardware issue for sure, maybe it has something to do with the "new" phone being set up (ergo maybe I could have fixed it by factory reset). Anyway, problem seems to be fixed now.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] skyman631:
Sounds like what mine was doing. I didn't have any reboots since Saturday, then it did it three times today. This still feels like a software issue, but I will likely exchange it for the new one (which hasn't shipped yet and was supposed to be here yesterday!)
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Morgrain:
A couple days ago (2-3) I also had a random reboot whilst using the phone (Navigation, but with no active screen, just audio) - that was a huge bummer. I am okey with idle reboots, but if I actively use an app: F*ck you.

It was the only reboot whilst using the phone actively in six days, but it was still unacceptable.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] skyman631:
Update: I'm noticing I get a bunch of reboots after I install a new app or change any settings, then it's ok until the next time I change/add something.

Still feels like it's software related.

I'm still supposed to get a replacement but it hasn't shipped yet. I'll probably go ahead swap unless I see anything concerning on the replacement.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] ggrant3876:
Out of curiosity did you set the P6P up from scratch or bring apps and data from another phone? I'm a firm believer the a new phone should be setup from scratch. Yes, I know it takes longer but in 7-8 days I haven't had a single issue with my P6P.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Morgrain:
Brought my apps and data from another phone by cable.

Did the same on the "new" phone, no problems ever since.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] roirraW "edor" ehT:
Likewise, I restored my backup 100% from my last phone via the Google cloud backup and I've had no issues since I got the phone over a week ago.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] DSMRyan:
I'm having the same problem. Rebooting about 4 times daily when idle. Restored from backup although I'm seeing that setting up as new doesn't necessarily help the issue.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] skyman631:
My replacement P6P arrives today. Keeping my fingers firmly crossed this ends my reboot problem.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] roirraW "edor" ehT:
Good luck to you! I hope it's a different experience for you, too.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] galaxys:
You should hopefully be good to go!🙂
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] skyman631:
Final report:

Received new P6P Tuesday afternoon and am almost 48 hours in now. ZERO random reboots. Did a cabled app/data transfer from my Pixel 5.

Also, the battery life is much better and it just seems to be faster overall, although that could be a placebo effect.

At any rate, initial unit was a dud. If you're having this issue, get a replacement.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] wilpang:
No random reboots for me either and I did transfer majority of my apps over but do have some lag on certain apps nothing major.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] cloudraker:
Just wanted to pop in and give a little follow up. Received a replacement device 2 days ago. I did migrate everything over from the device that had been randomly rebooting a minimum of 4 times a day, but typically more. This new device has ran flawlessly for 2 straight days without issue. Its my opinion that theres some sort of hardware issue on some of the devices causing this problem, but i very well could be wrong.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] wilpang:
I had my first random reboot yesterday evening just by picking up the phone and it restarted. Fingers crossed it was only a random rare occurrence, checked the runtime this morning and the phone has been running continuously so no more restarts overnight.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] kboya:
I'm pleased to see that you've had replacements that function normally. I've not had a single reboot or crash issue since the ones I reported 14-16 days ago and many, many app updates!

Hello, I'm coming from a Huawei P30 Pro with which I used to use Samsung Galaxy Buds Live when working out and the sound is much louder and clearer compared to the Pixel 6's. Is anyone else experiencing quiet headphones or is it just me?

Hi all:

I'm trying to get Assistant voice typing and Auto punctuation to work on my new Pixel 6. Both options are greyed out in Gboard settings right now. Is anyone else seeing this behavior, or is it working correctly for you?
[Google Pixel 6] originali:
did you train voice assistant to recognise your voice?
[Google Pixel 6] nEUTRon666:
I got the exact same problem where on my son's phone this works
[Google Pixel 6] nEUTRon666:
Update, got it enabled now and it works with multiple languages. Since I'm from Germany I have German and English enabled. I don't know what exactly was the trigger, but I played around with language, language settings and offline languages, re-configured everything, re-downloaded languages and so on in assistant settings. The problem must be somewhere there. Maybe someone finds the exact spot
[Google Pixel 6] Waibashi:
I really want someone to get back to me, as I have the same issue with my phone. I will try the google assistant training first
[Google Pixel 6] mdimbler:
Yes, the voice is already trained.
[Google Pixel 6] brc64:
I'm having the same issue. Out of curiosity, for anybody having the problem, do you have a work profile set up on your phone? I know that with my Pixel 4, some of the new Google Assistant settings were unusable when I added my work account because my employer didn't have some setting enabled in Google Workspace.

I'm wondering if this is related to the same thing. I haven't gotten around to removing that account to see if that clears up the issue yet. I can report when I have time to try that.

Edit: That does appear to the culprit for me. As soon as I deleted my work account, I was able to activate that setting.

So far after re-adding my account, it's stayed enabled, but we'll see... If this is the culprit, I believe it's likely related to this:

Turn Search and Assistant on or off for users - Google Workspace Admin Help

Google Assistant is not available for managed Chromebooks. As an administrator, you can control who uses Google Search and Assistant services with their Google Account. Just turn the service on or of

support.google.com
[Google Pixel 6] mdimbler:
Thank you brc64! I don't have a work profile set up on the phone, but I did have one work Google account and one Google account from a non-profit I volunteer for on here. I removed the non-profit Google account and the options became available. I, too, added the account back, and both Assistant voice typing and Automatic Punctuation are still enabled.
[Google Pixel 6] Negan:
I haven't gotten it to work yet. Figures I'd run into this! Have us English set everywhere only and downloaded us offline English. Hopefully I'll be able to sort it out! Of all the silly things that's not enabled by default when we turn on voice typing... Thanks Google🧐

Update: I think it might actually be server side change or from an app update. I updated all my apps and it started working shortly thereafter.
[Google Pixel 6] Konnectgame:
I tried all the solutions listed but nothing worked. What fixed it for me was to force stop Gboard. Clear cache. Then select uninstall updates. Let's Google play store update it. Then repeat the same with Google app (force stop, clear cache, uninstall updates then update.) Initially had to force stop Gboard again then open and that's it, boom it worked. Hopefully this helps.
[Google Pixel 6] BunkMoreland:
Is it working for you in both languages? Because I'm bilingual as well and although I can switch the toggle, the true assistant voice typing is only working in English. When I switch to German, it uses the old voice typing method. You can tell the difference by the icon the little microphone has. The assistant voice typing has the newer logo.
[Google Pixel 6] z-man79:
It's something on the server side. I was on the phone with them yesterday for 90 minutes trying to get the problem resolved, then this morning some type of download came through and it was fixed. Fixed. Just be patient and you'll get it resolved. As a matter of fact, I'm using the service right now
[Google Pixel 6] ThoroSOE:
I concur with the server side assumption. I finally got it to work, when I revmoved a second language both from Gboard and the assistant. But since I need to be able to switch to English regularly, this was too much of a hassle, so I reactivated the second language. This took me back to the regular voice input and grayed out the option for the assistant for voice typing.

I did not change anything since then, but I just found, that I now could switch on Assitant voice typing again and it works with multiple languages at once. There have been some auto updates over the play store this morning, so this might have to do with this.

Try to update all apps in your Play Store profile. If this does not help, I guess patience is all that can.
[Google Pixel 6] ofrias:
What language are supported?
[Google Pixel 6] ThoroSOE:
In my case I am running German (Germany) and English (US)
[Google Pixel 6] tiantianisfox:
I can confirm this is caused by multiple language, and specifically it is in your google voice assitant setting.
[Google Pixel 6] gattacus:
I have the same setup and issue. tried everything. did you manage to get it working?
[Google Pixel 6] BunkMoreland:
Unfortunately I did not. It works fine in English, but no shot getting it to work in German when I have both languages in my assistant, the phone and the Gboard turned on.
[Google Pixel 6] llaugerm:
Mine just stopped working this week without me doing anything. It's greyed out.
[Google Pixel 6] BunkMoreland:
This whole thing really triggers me, not gonna lie.

Google sells this as one of their main new features for the pixel lineup and then basically doesn't even acknowledge the problem that almost everybody who's bilingual can't use it.
[Google Pixel 6] gattacus:
Totally agree. Although I assume it's not a bug but this use case is just not supported (yet). Let's hope they change this soon.
[Google Pixel 6] BunkMoreland:
I disagree, this is 100% a bug. Because you can activate both languages I use individually AND when switching the language on Gboard, I see how the microphone icon changes. There is no reason why this shouldn't work. Especially since my assistant works in both languages without having to switch anything, I can talk to it in both languages.
[Google Pixel 6] gattacus:
Idid a bit of debugging:

1. Assistant voice typing only works for the primary system language: "Dictation is not enabled because of a locale mismatch: dictation locale: de_DE; system primary locale: en_US"

2. supported languages: "Dictation in not enabled for unsupported locale: de_CH; supported locales: [[en_US, en_CA, en_GB, en_AU, en_IE], [ja_JP], [de_DE]] "
[Google Pixel 6] rester555:
I had to go into Google Assistant settings, Gboard settings, Google, language, and my Google account activity and reset all languages to English to get it back working at least in English. The multi-lingual settings are a nightmare with Google.
