#Android16 #QPR1 #Beta31 #Official #Google #Pixel
Android 16 QPR1 Beta 3.1 - Google Pixel 8 Series
Updated: 14/08/2025
By: Google
Download: Factory Images | OTA Images | Pixel Tracker
Changelog:
⢠Fixed device instability or reboots related to Wi-Fi by improving how the system processes network statistics
⢠Fixed the Context Hub, a low-power sensor component, would crash due to excessive use of main memory, causing device instability; resolved by optimizing memory allocation and preventing memory leaks
⢠Fixed the home screen sometimes lost its bottom row of pinned apps and the search bar, making them inaccessible; this was fixed by adjusting how these elements reappear after screen transitions
⢠Fixed notifications would overlap in the shade, hindering readability, by refining the notification display and dismissal animation logic
⢠Fixed an issue that caused unexpected device restarts
⢠Fixed the Quick Settings UI on unfolded foldable devices appeared clipped or misaligned due to incorrect padding caused by double-counting the camera cutout
⢠Fixed an issue that caused devices to unexpectedly reboot
⢠Fixed the status bar appearing in the Quick Settings shade was sometimes misaligned with the standard status bar, causing a visual inconsistency
⢠Fixed addressed a system hang or crash, particularly during unlock, caused by the cameraās Ambient Light Sensor (ALS) read getting stuck, by implementing a non-blocking method for sensor data retrieval
⢠Fixed the media player on the lock screen would sometimes disappear or become unresponsive
⢠Fixed an issue where the notification shade displayed a large, growing gap, obscuring notifications, by correcting how notification animations were clipped
⢠Fixed an issue where the media player notification could appear clipped or disappear during device rotation, by improving how its display area is sized and updated in UI transitions
⢠Fixed video calls initiated from voice calls no longer experience muted audio; a system audio fix now correctly manages sound output during call type transitions
⢠Fixed an issue where black translucent bars appeared at the top and bottom of the home screen after exiting full-screen apps by correcting how transient system bar states were cleared
⢠Fixed an issue that caused the device to unexpectedly crash and restart during an OTA update
⢠Fixed an issue causing occasional device restarts after system updates.
⢠Fixed widgets on the home screen sometimes failed to load due to looking for outdated app files.
⢠Fixed typing occasionally stopped working in apps because internal input system processes could race.
Device crashes caused by the Context Hub running out of memory.
⢠Fixed bluetooth crashes and instability caused by an āUnimplemented Packet Typeā error have been resolved.
⢠Unable to handle kernel paging request, PC is at edgetpu_kci_release_vmbox, LR is at edgetpu_kci_release_vmbox
⢠Fixed an issue that could cause phone disconnections or system crashes during calls by resolving a memory corruption bug in audio data buffer handling related to audio playback speed changes.
⢠Fixed a brief screen flicker happened when launching apps from the notification shade.
⢠Fixed a system crash that could occur when using your deviceās media features, especially when connected to a computer for media transfer, by improving the internal handling of media connection resources
