Google Pixel 9 series

Honestly, it looked ok to me...

The lens switching has been a problem for pixel phones all along, my P8P also like that.

So google support won't offer you a replacement?

They said if it still persist after factory reset, then open case with them again. lol

But if i shoot normally i think i wont notice it that much also. It's just that there are like references to check with the checkered grids it'll seem more obvious.

I realized the angle gets corrected after a split second. Seems like the change of lens takes a split second to happen.

Wa. My aim is not the color... It's just making sure my hardware is ok..

Well. I mean if it's the same for you guys that the angle gets corrected within a split second then I think there is no need for me to do any exchange?

Blocks ads in apps well also?

Within apps so far those I've tried, no. Apps like reddit, Twitter x Facebook will still show ads. Can't say you won't experience any unique problems for certain apps or games though

Google support ask me to do Factory reset

On the other hand, is anyone experiencing this as well??

Thats the lens transition effect, it's normal and has always been present on the pixel. Sadly google can't get the implementation right up til now. Even Samsung can do better job..

As for your lens tilt, honestly yours doesn't look terrible. I can see a lot of people not even realising it's a problem until it's pointed out. But still I hope Google gets the phone replaced for you.

Yup, just get a new SIM card and it will work ... when I ask the reason, Singtel guy said it's a Google Pixel e requirement to swop to a new SIM for a new Pixel phone

5G works as well with the new SIM?

Citibank - yes
dbs - no

thank you for sharing!

 

[EuroR_CL7]

is there extended warranty available for purchase?

Any unintended side effects?

If I remember correctly, need to leave wireless debugging on as long as shizuku is running. A potential security risk to leave it on, if you like to connect to public wifi. And have to turn on wireless debugging if your phone restarts.

After installing the body temperature, you can disable wireless debugging and uninstall Shizuku lah

Actual reason should be newer pixels only support class C sim cards.

I swop from a Pixel 7 phone hence when popping in the card, it does not detect any SIM card. When I pop in a Mobile 8 SIM card, it can detect.

I'll be livid if the replacement cam is worst
