2018 Google Pixel 3 and 3XL...😗🎉😵

[shikoto]

no choice one. service centers have their own SOPs and google usually will just leave it for CTDI to do what they deem fit

One thing I give to them is that they're quick. Phone ready to pickup in less than a day. Just hope that they sealed it properly.

Bobian, need the phone for travels. Cannot tank the wait for 3 weeks. If any mishaps the next one I will send to Google directly already.

Does anyone know how to change the black bar above to like a translucent or other colours?

It is always black when in the main desktop page.

 

[shikoto]

Well...it's not even 6 hours since I got my phone back...

What 3rd party app you use?

After owning this phone for close to 2 months I'm pretty happy with it. Everything has been perfect except for the battery life. Some days I get excellent standby time. On other days it's dogshit. Wish the pixel 4 will pack at least a 4k mAh battery.

What 3rd party app you use?

Whatsapp (It crashed trying to use the camera to log on WAWeb), Insta, Twitter, Messenger, FB, Telegram.

Both the front and rear camera on these apps crash it. I don't think I need to test with any more apps lol.

Hmm wierd issue, they did a factory wipe alrdy right?

You want to try to wipe again? And install just whatsapp and monitor see if it happens? Just worry that there are apps that cause this

Wiped before I sent to CTDI, tested. Cleared cache, uninstalled updates, booted in safe mode. No bueno.

And yes, you have to factory wipe it before you send it in and they will ask you to do it again when you pick up the phone just in case. Anyhow, this issue is quite well documented, surprising not many people's P3 is getting this.

Ah wonderful Google...
Curious Are you on the latest update? It should be December 2018 at least?

Actually why is his like that ah? Mine on home page got no bar. Just the pill button

 

[fi5hbone]

I think I figured out why. I am using Nova Launcher. Tweaked some settings and now the bar is transparent!

Which 3rd party app were you using? I tried Whatsapp and the Comfort DelGro app for taxi bookings so far and don't have an issue.

Really wierd... Hmmm but it seemed like a software update can solve this. Can only wait for feb update and hope this issue will be fixed

Asking Google to design a good phone is a task that is impossible for them after you see them trying for years.. I am saying this as am upcoming owner too.
