Hi all, this has been resolved. DBS actually blocked my card as they suspected fraud.
So you haven't been actively using it during the period you tried adding it to your Google wallet?

But if they blocked your card how come can use physical card?
That's the thing that I wondered lor. Physical can use paywave. Recently a lot of googlepay/applepay fraud, probably that's why.

Following an update to the Pixel Troubleshooting app/service, the Pixel 6-9 can natively show “Device temperature.”

Go to Settings app > Battery > Battery diagnostics (at the bottom) > Phone is very warm. Previously, this page might just note how “All settings are optimized.”

Now, you get a Pixel temperature readout that updates in real-time. There are four color-coded “Labels”: Cold, Normal, Warm, and Elevated.

The following “descriptions”/messages are possible:

  • “Your phone’s estimated temperature is lower than normal. It may shut down suddenly.”
  • “This estimated temperature is typical with normal phone use.”
  • “Your phone is slightly warm, but this is normal during use. To prevent further temperature increases, screen brightness and network speeds may be reduced.”
  • “Your phone is slightly warm, but this is normal during use. To prevent further temperature increases, charging is paused, and screen brightness and network speeds may be reduced.”
  • “Your phone’s estimated temperature is higher than normal. Your phone will try to cool down by temporarily limiting performance and pausing certain features.”

Google explains how “Device temperature is estimated based on multiple internal sensors.” You might also see tips like:

  • “To cool down your phone, provide airflow to your phone if possible”
  • “Use only cases or covers made for your specific phone”
  • “To help cool your phone, close apps that use a lot of power like games or video streaming. You can reopen them later.”
  • “Protect your phone by putting it in an inner pocket close to your body, or using an insulated case”
  • “Let your phone rest and warm up for a few minutes before doing demanding tasks like gaming or video calls. This helps keep it safe from damage.”
Another way to access this page is by searching “Device temperature” in the Settings app. Pixel Troubleshooting was introduced last year.

Update: Live temperature is available with version 1.0.693922709 of the Pixel Troubleshooting app on the Pixel 6, 7, 8, and 9 series. (It doesn’t look to be available on the Tablet.) We’re seeing it on a Pixel 6 Pro, Pixel Fold, Pixel 8a and 9 Pro running the stable Android 15 November release or later.

This update is rolling out via the Play Store, but is not yet widely available. (You might have to visit the listing directly.)

Remove the screen protector and register your fingerprints. if it still doesn’t work, it’s possible your fingerprints are too faint to be detected or a faulty device
i asked one shopee seller if can work. answer no

BTW just want to put it on here for those who are considering between Spigen and ringke tempered glass, ringke is superior.

The clarity, coverage and feel are better and the edge is slightly rounded, reminds me very much of whitestone dome. But for those with cases that has higher coverage should go for Spigen for compatibility.

Fingerprint sensor sensitivity are similar and works well.

Brought P9PXL to a Japan trip.
1. Fingerprint scanner became worst. Keep failing and I had to enter pin. (Installed with Spigen tempered glass.) Came back to SG and it works fine again...o_O
2. GPS was really slow to lock on every time I open the Google Map, wasn't this bad on my P7P from my memories.
3. Lost cell connectivity quite often when in JP (Both Ubigi and Singtel roaming). Works fine in SG though.

Maybe it's a Chinese set and it hates the japanese?

Wifi or mobile data? Not bad not bad.
I went outside around 2:20pm with 100% battery. Then reached home around 6:40pm. On data during this timing.
At home is on wifi.
Only started using 2 days ago. Hopefully the battery can settle with my usage pattern and get even better battery life.
