To save everyone a click and time spent finding the small section within the faq:

Issues with screen protector
If your fingerprint won’t scan, it might be because of your screen protector. Make sure you use a screen protector that is Made for Google certified. Brands that are Made for Google certified for Pixel 6 and later phones are Bigben, BodyGuardz, Case-Mate, OtterBox, Panzerglass, Power Support, and ZAGG.

Posted once yesterday and final post about this.

Bought a set of 128gb Obsidian from Shoppe.
Realised that there was no dual SIM, but daughter has already broken the seal of the box.
Tried to return to Shopee but was rejected.

Willing to let go at $1200. + the $250 voucher (not yet register/redeemed)
Phone has not been turned on for first time, and totally not used at all.

Please telegram me at @pushthepushpop or PM me.
Can always choose to use esim and keep the phone.

Just got one of my vouchers, still waiting for the second one which I submitted a day later. Hpefully tomorrow can get.

My friend just went to Hereen courts to walk in buy P7 and apparently they still giving the $250 google vouchers, just no more other promo or freebies
I doubt can still get then$250 vouchers because you are supposed to submit an invoice dated 16 October or before to be eligible.

Even without asking anywhere, ppl can find specs of the phones can be easily found on google store website directly or even just by searching "pixel 7 pro" in google. Faster than waiting for a reply on forums. :rolleyes:
Actually forum reply faster since this thread so active. :s13:

Reply from oro :

For submissions after 16th 2359, please do allow 2weeks from the date of submission for processing.

Only email to enquire if it has passed the 2weeks from submission date.

No it does not on our local Pixel 7/Pro. It is unlikely to be supported as recording of people voice unknowllingly is not permitted under SG law. Not unless prompt or notified before/during call.

By default. Single tap to wake the phone. By default, raised the phone upwards will also turn the screen on.

Use a film screen protector.

16. Repair costs

17. I'm using A to C. My P7 not working with the following: (Credit: royfrosty)
- Xiaomi power bank (not detected at all)
- Anker multi port charger (connected but not charging)

A to C not all phones can charge using the A to C. It is much slower with the given protocol should only be 5v 1.5A. It is barely enough for a pixel. Other androids using other type of charging protocol can deliver other type of charging speed or higher wattage using an A to C cable. Such as Oppo/One Plus, Xiaomi etc.
But as long as the phone using USB PD protocol, that's a USB C to C. No 2 ways about it.

For those who bought Ringke Transparent Case and Ringke TPU, I did not insert the alignment tool fully, and the TPU did not lift up.:)
