Android 11 issues - Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers

Thought I'd start this up for anyone having issues. So far:
I've had the UI hang while trying to swipe up to go home.
I had the navigation bar become stuck in the middle of the screen.
The screen recorder doesn't work properly. Records audio but video only shows a background image that not on the screen. After I drop recording the status bar on top disappears in the home screen.
Anyone else having this issues or other issues?

Keyboard won't open using chat bubble on messages app

My only issue had been trying to trigger the back gesture or menu from the left side which could be a result of the new screen protector I put on, or just Google's garbage gesture implementation.

interesting... I'm having issues with Gboard not opening up at all most of the time with chat bubbles disabled. only sure way for me to get the keyboard back is to lock the device, bring up the keyboard trying to unlock and then the keyboard will show up in the current app.

I tried rooting using the latest magisk and phone does not boot past the bootloader. using 7.5.1 of Magisk.

The screenshot button is greyed out when using 3-button navigation. Works with gesture navigation.

This is all that records. *Edit*Nevermind doesn't upload

UI is not hanging for me but it keeps forgetting that I have Action Launcher as my default and kicking me back to Pixel Launcher when I swipe up to go home. It remembers after a reboot.

I did but had to remove the old ver before I installed the new to show correctly. Was odd but I am not rooted. Thanks

I don't have the option to bubble chat( don't see the icon on the notification bar) is activated for all chats but is not working for me.

Bubbles open for me, but 1) the nav bar for some reason shows up at the bottom of the pop up, and 2) it hangs, and doesn't allow interaction. As well, if auto-rotate is off, the nav bar will not always follow rotation, at times getting stuck on the bottom of the device, as well as constantly being visible, even on the always on display.

When I restart the phone I get a new voicemail notification every time even though I don't have any. This has happened on the BETA too

Anyone have problem with forcing 90Hz refresh ? Even enabled at developer option (now its call smooth display and i think this is same trigger like in display settings), phone sometimes goes to 60Hz for i think 30s-1m and after that i got 90Hz back.

Yeah my bubbles pop up but I can't get gboard to open. It either tells me gboard stopped working out nothing happens at all.

I performed a clean install from August Android 10 to September Android 11 update and I have not been able to get my face unlock to work. Anyone else having this issue. If so have you been able to find a fix for it.

CM7 Status Bar Force Close

The past few days I've been getting a "Status Bar" force close which means the notifications bar completely disappears, including the main Android buttons in Tablet Tweaks.
Going into the settings and toggling top status bar or bottom status bar doesn't bring it back, nor does going into Manage Applications and clicking Force Stop on the status bar.
Has anyone run into this issue and been able to fix it without rebooting?
Haven't had the issue in a while (knock on wood), but it always recovered pretty quick (a few seconds later). Have you tried disabling "disable fullscreen"? That seems to have helped out. I found toggling all the buttons in the Tablet Tweaks area fixed a lot of things...
I had the same issue yesterday. After playing with WIFI setting several times, the status bar suddenly force closed and was not able to recover. I had to reboot the Nook.
Same issue here. My status bar will occasionally force close when playing around with one specific widget (Pure Messenger). Sometimes it will come right back and sometimes it doesn't and nothing outside of rebooting will fix the problem.
Has anyone come up with a solution that doesn't require a reboot?
Same, restarts sometimes, other tines it doesn't come back. You could use Hot Restart rather than reboot but otherwise...

App in the market, it's a widget that you tap and it'll offer to "hot restart", ie: Restart Android. It's a little faster than a full reboot.
You could try adding the open/close status bar shortcut to your homescreen. Long press on home screen->launcher actions->open /close status bar.
I've started using Taker on my NC and I've found every time I open it, Status Bar crashes, and about half the time doesn't come back... Meh.

Doubt that.. It fixes itself sometimes after a few seconds. Other times a reboot is required.

The default ADWLauncher has it, although it interacts very strangely with the double-chevron "allow fullscreen" soft-button control (diddles the same API, perhaps?). Just added it, so I haven't had time for a status bar crash since.
Rotating never worked for me, but the "Notification Restart" app worked maybe a couple of times, but hasn't the last few instances.

Unfortunately the status bar show/hide shortcut trick doesn't work if the status bar itself is well and truly gone. So far only a reboot has brought it back reliably.
In other news though, I've recently removed the Elixir widget from my home screen and gone to manually turning on/off the WiFi and that seems to have improved things for me. YMMV

I just upgraded to n102, no OC, and almost immediately got three instances of the status bar turning invisible, but still working (the screen space is still reserved but blank, the buttons work, you just can't see them), and rotating the screen fixes that problem. Smells like a missed repaint of some kind.
No complete crashes yet.

Swipe to screenshot does not work with Nova Launcher, annoying IR remote on lock scr

Can anyone confirm that motion sensors and motion guided commands do not work when you do NOT use Touch Wiz? I am using Nova Launcher and the hand swipe to screenshot does not work.
Also, I tested out the IR Remote control app which worked great but now even after i close the app, on my lock screen, the remote functions are still there.
http://i.imgur.com/L4f6dwp.png
It hasn't gone away since last night. I closed out, closed process etc, still just hangs around the lock screen. When i press the channel/volume buttons from the lock screen, the blue light shines showing that it is currently activated and on. I believe this is a possible bug. I'm worried it's draining my battery as well. Please help.
Bonus help: how do you change the background on the lock screen?

On the S4 there's a setting within the app where you can disable the lock screen and notification panel settings. You'd think that they should still be there on the S5. Open the app, go to the menu and check the settings there.

Yeah, that drove me nuts too when I first used the feature on my S4.....Hopefully getting the S5 and Gear Neo this weekend.
Swipe to screenshot works fine for me with Next Launcher 3D.

i figure swipe to capture out, your hand had to actually glide ON the screen. This whole time I thought it was an air motion that the sensors on the front caught. it isn't that at all but based on the hand touching the actual glass. I guess this is what happens for first time Samsung users... mods feel free to delete this thread.
SOLVED! I had the same issue (swipe screen grab not working) and tried everything with my Galaxy S6 after I installed Marshmallow and also Nova launcher for first time. Not sure which one caused it... Anyway, after going through a million "fixes" that didn't work, this one finally did!
- Go to your phone dialer and dial: *#2663#
- That will bring up a developer menu. Once you're in the menu press the button titled "TSP FW Update (General)". Let it got through the update (just a few seconds) and viola!!! You're swipe screen grab or any other touch screen weirdness work perfectly again!
Thanks . Solved even S pen problem on screen capture

[Q] Navigator Bar/Status Bar isn't working

Hy guys
A friend of mine got a problem with his HTC One M7. His problem is, that when he tries to pull down the navigator bar or status bar (however you will call it ) it doesn't work. All notifications are shown in the status bar, also battery, clock etc. If he tries to open the bar, to get to the notifications or the quick toggles, he can't do that, the screen just don't react!
This happened since the last update of android (I thinke he's running 4.4.3 or 4.4.4). Before everything worked perfect.
The curious thing is, when he put his phone into landscape mode, he can gain access to the notifications and everything!?! But in normal mode not, very confusing...
Someone having the same issue? Or did someone solve this problem?
I really appreciate your help. Thanks mates

In landscape mode everything works, and it happened after a software update. The screen reacts if you go to landscape mode and touch the screen (in a game or youtube)

Just because part of the screen works doesn't mean the whole screen works. To test it out you could enable touch points in developer settings and see if it is reg the touch. Or you could do a full wipe and flash of the stock software.

The problem isn't the notification bar itself but the top of the screen in portrait mode which is needed to detect a touch to activate the notification pull down. It must be a hardware problem. A relative of mine has the same issue, however on his it sometimes wants to work sometimes it doesn't. Try the HTC diagnostic menu, open the dialer and type *#*#3424#*#*
Then use the line drawing test and try to draw a line in the upper part of his phone. You may find that where the notification bar would be no line can be drawn there... If that's the case then it most likely is a faulty digitizer.
To test it further try going to the Play Store in landscape mode and try a swipe from the left it normally shows the hidden menu from the left in the Play Store. Like my relative you may find that the menu only shows when you swipe in from portrait mode and not in landscape.

3.huge volte sign
Following annoying things introduced in Google PIE update,
I am Nokia 7 Plus user
After having PIE update, Google search bar stays there on Home screen by default & don't have option to remove it using settings.
On Home screen current Date & Time is getting displayed along with temperature, in preferences option for this, there is no option to disable Temperature part
Turning the time off in System UI doesn't stick, soon as the screen locks & you open it the time comes back. :/

Something like it
Since the update I have noticed lower volume on Bluetooth when connected to me car kit, max volume on the phone but I have to turn the stereo volume up another 20% or so.
Also voice unlock will work some times, then tells me it's paused and I have to unlock manually.
Anyone else hit the power button/double tap and see that the notifications are collapsed? Usually this cuts off some of the text. As soon as you tap the notification (or try to take a screenshot) it expands. Seems to be my only gripe so far.
-Bluetooth not working ok. Sometimes it conects and keep sounding in the phone instead of the headsets. It eats way more battery than before.
-White balance problem with the camera, sometimes in sunny situations it turns everithing to a ugly yellow. Even putting manual white balance does nothing.
-Sometimes notifications don't show up, even in apps that i use all the time.
-Battery life is considerable worst than 8.0 august.
-Everything is less smoth, stutters on animations, the notification panel collapse with 3 notifications and don't show the messages, just a white bar.
-In thr upper corner where you see the notifications it shows a point instead of the notifications when you have 3 or more notifications.
-Ambient display showing a horizontal bar in the screen even if there are notifications.
After so many previews i was not expecting this, i am really dissapointed.

Did you do a fresh install or just updated over 8.1 ?
Anyone get squashed notifications like this?

Yes, it jumps from that condensed notification to the full size one instantly. Really hoping this gets ironed out :l
How did you update? Via OTA or sideload?
If this was via OTA thats really bad from Nokia.

Yes same here.
I also sideloaded with TA-1062 and got that bug in the lockscree.
I rolledback to oreo and decided to wait, because I dont know if TA-1062 has something special with Pie, becuase other people who updated to pie in other variants (TA-1046 for example) are not facing the issue

Minimizing call screen - no root - Asus Rog Phone II

Just got this phone yesterday and noticed that I can't do anything while receiving a call, there is an "always on top" screen that won't go away by pressing any of the buttons until you hang up. This is really annoying since it completely disables the phone. Let says you are driving using google maps and somebody calls you, you will miss your exit for sure, or you want to check a text while talking on the phone, not possible... Already tried to disable the phone notifications, as well as trying all the available options ( for notifications), also tried with other phone apps and with SystemUI Tuner app all with no success.
Is anybody else having this issue? I'm happy to provide any info you guys might need as well as do any test. Currently using Nova launcher,
Android version 9,
Security patch Jun 5 2019.
Software info WW_16.0622.1906.19_0
Extension ROM 1.1.93
Maybe because of Nova Launcher. It is actually kinda weird. What firmware is installed on your ROG Phone 2?
I'm also on WW_16.0622.1906.19_0 and when I'm in a call I can just go home or use recent apps while in a call, mine looks like this, note the green bar at the top of the Play store screenshot.
I also use Nova launcher.

Nothing happens in mine when I press the home or recent apps while in the call screen, I can drag the top menu but that's about it, in this menu even if I press the little gear to go to settings it opens it in the background and once the call is over that will be the first screen that I can see. But somehow the call screen is always on top. On this phone I can't get the green bar, I'm used to it from all my other past android phones, but not on this one.
Any ideas?
