10 common Google Pixel problems and how to deal with them

So you’re having a few problems with your Google Pixel? There’s no need to panic. All smartphones, especially newer ones, have their fair share of issues, bugs, and glitches, from the unique to the familiar. Of course, if you’ve just spent a large sum of money to acquire Google’s phone, there’s no doubt you want it to be in perfect, working condition. We can help with that.

Below, we’ve detailed multiple problems that Google Pixel owners have experienced, as well as a few potential solutions and workarounds to deal with them. If you’re having Google Pixel problems, this list will help you get your smartphone back in working order.

If you have a Google Pixel 2 and Pixel 2 XL, check out our list of problems affecting Google’s latest smartphone and what to do about them.

Problem: Reboot loop after updating to Android 8.0

Some Google Pixel owners have complained about reboot loops after updating their device to Android 8.0.

Potential solution:

• Make sure that your device is running the latest patches as Google is tried to fix this issue in an October OTA update. Go to Settings > About phone > System updates.

If you’re still experiencing reboot loops after an update, try the following:

• Android 8.0 has a feature that will detect a boot loop and try to fix it. If it can’t fix it, the device will boot up in safe mode where you can perform a factory reset.
• To go into safe mode when your device is on, Press and hold the Power button. After a moment, a box should appear, touch and hold Power off. You’ll see the message “Reboot to safe mode.” Tap OK, and your device will start in safe mode. The words “Safe mode” should be seen in a box at the bottom.
• To go into safe mode when your device is off, Press the power button and wait for the Google logo to appear. When the animation starts, press and hold the volume down button until the animation ends. Your device will start in safe mode, and you will see “Safe mode” at the bottom of the screen.
• Reset your phone to the factory default settings:
  • Before you reset your phone, back up your important data and files.
  • To perform the factory reset, go to Settings > Backup & reset > Factory data reset > Reset phone > Erase everything. Choose to restart your device once everything is erased and restore it using the back up you made. Note: You’ll need to input your pattern, PIN, or password to start this process, so make sure you know it beforehand.

Problem: Pixel won’t charge or isn’t charging correctly

Some Pixel owners on Google’s product forums have reportedly been unable to charge their Pixel phones. In other cases, the phone does begin charging, but it’s not as responsive or quick as it should be.

Potential solutions:

• Try a different wall outlet, the one you’ve been using may be faulty.
• Try your charger with another device. If it doesn’t charge the other device, the charger may be faulty and you’ll need a replacement.
• Restart your Google Pixel.
• Clean the Pixel’s charging port.
• Connect your phone to power and wait about a minute:
  • If you see a battery icon, your phone is currently off but is charging. You can restart it.
  • If there’s a red light, the battery is fully discharged. Charge your phone for at least 30 minutes before restarting it.
• Press and hold the Volume down and Power buttons for about 20 seconds. If you see the Android mascot and the word “Start” with an arrow around it, press and hold the Volume down button until you see “Power Off.” Use the Power button to select it, then charge your device for 30 mins. Restart your Pixel.
• If none of the above solves your issue, reach out to Google.

Issue: Poor Wi-Fi connection or no connection

Another common problem with smartphones is being unable to get, or maintain, an internet connection. There are several threads on Google’s product forums full of people having this problem. Fortunately, the solutions for other devices can also be applied to the Google Pixel, and Google Support also has some suggestions.

Potential solutions:

• Restart your device.
• Go to Settings > Wi-Fi and toggle the feature off and on.
• Make sure Airplane mode is turned off. If it’s already off, turn it on, then off again.
• Remove the network you’re trying to connect to by going to Settings > Wi-Fi, then select the network. Tap Forget to remove it. Re-add it and try connecting once again.
• Reset your network settings: Settings > More (Under Wireless & Networks) > Network settings reset > Reset settings.
• Restart your router and modem.
• An app could be causing the problem. To check you need to boot your phone into Safe mode. Start by pressing and holding the Power button, after a moment, a box should appear, touch and hold Power off. You’ll see the message “Reboot to safe mode.” Tap OK and your device will start in safe mode. The words “Safe mode” should be seen in a box at the bottom. While in safe mode, attempt to connect to Wi-Fi again. If it works, restart your phone to exit safe mode, then uninstall any recently installed apps one at a time, checking your connection after every uninstall, until Wi-Fi works. After finding the app causing the problem, you can reinstall the other apps you removed.

Issue: Unable to send or receive texts or messages from contacts

After upgrading or migrating to the Google Pixel, some owners on Google’s forums have realized that they’re unable to send or receive texts or messages of any kind from their contacts.

Potential solutions:

• As always, try restarting your phone.
• Makes sure none of the contacts you’re trying to message are blocked. Have your contacts unblock you as well. To check your blocked contacts, open your Messenger app, then tap More (the three horizontal dots) > Blocked Contacts. If the Blocked Contacts option isn’t there, you haven’t blocked anyone.
• If your previous smartphone was an iPhone, you’ll need to turn off iMessage before you can send and receive messages on your new Pixel. If you still have your old iPhone, turn it on, then go to Settings > Messages and toggle iMessage off. If you no longer have that iPhone, you can ask Apple to deregister the number associated with iMessage.

Annoyance: Pixel restarts, freezes, or crashes constantly

Uncontrollable restarts, freezes, and crashes are something you definitely don’t want to happen while in the middle of using your smartphone., as supported by this 500+ post thread, and these other threads. There are a number of things you can try to resolve the situation, from simple restarts and software updates to revisiting safe mode.

Potential solutions:

• Check for a software update:  Settings > About phone > System updates.
• Update your apps: Open the Google Play Store app, then tap Menu (in the top left corner) > My apps & games. Apps that can be updated will be labeled Update. Tap Update for a single app or Update All for all apps.
• Your device could start having more issues if you have less than 10 percent storage space. Check how much storage you have by going to Settings > Storage & USB. Consider deleting older apps, photos, music, and other media to free up space.
• Force close apps you’re not currently using by going to Settings > Apps, then choose an app and tap Force stop.
• An app could be causing the problem.
  • To check, you need to boot your phone into Safe mode. Start by pressing and holding the Power button. After a moment, a box should appear, touch and hold Power off. You’ll see the message “Reboot to safe mode.” Tap OK and your device will start in safe mode. The words “Safe mode” should be seen in a box at the bottom.
  • If you experience no crashes, restart your phone to exit Safe mode, then uninstall any recently installed apps one at a time. After finding the app causing the problem, reinstall the other apps you removed.
• Reset your phone to the factory default settings:
  • Before you actually reset your phone, back up your important data and files.
  • To perform the factory reset, go to Settings > Backup & reset > Factory data reset > Reset phone > Erase everything. Choose to restart your device once everything has been erased, and restore it using the back up you made. Note: You’ll need to input your pattern, PIN, or password to start this process, so make sure you know it beforehand.

The 20 best Google Pixel tips and tricks you need to know about

If you’re one of the many that pulled the trigger on a shiny new Google Pixel or Pixel XL, you made an excellent decision. The device is Google’s first official entrance into making smartphone hardware, and boy is it an awesome first attempt.

You’re probably getting used to your new phone, but it takes time to truly become a master of the Pixel. It would be impossible to know about every single feature the device has to offer. That’s why we’ve put together this list of Google Pixel tips and tricks to try out. All of these tips will work equally well on the Pixel XL.

Learn the basics of your new phone and camera

Keep searching from the home screen

The home screen is a little different than other stock Android phones, most notably dispensing with the standard ever-present search bar that graced our Nexus phones. Thankfully, it’s still easy to search the web from the home screen — simply press the Google logo at the top left of the display, and a search bar will pop up.

Wake your phone without touching with the home button

Unlike many phones of yesteryear, you don’t actually have to even touch the power button to wake your Pixel. Instead, make sure the fingerprint sensor is set up, and simply place your fingertip over the sensor to wake up your phone. It’ll open straight to the home screen, doing away with the need to press the power button and input a PIN code.

Get extra battery life with power saving mode

Running low on juice and not yet done with your day? You need power saving mode! To access power saving mode, head to the Settings app, then hit Battery, and press the Battery saver button. You can then switch on battery saver right away, or set it to turn on automatically when you have 15 percent or 5 percent battery left.

Schedule Night Light mode

Night Light has finally made it to Android. The feature takes out much of the blue light being blasted towards your eyes — light that could signal to your brain that it’s still daytime. What that does is help you to get to sleep quicker and easier than you otherwise might, especially if you tend to use your phone at night. To schedule Night Light mode simply head to Settings, then hit the Display button. You’ll see an option for Night Light — press that button, and you can either turn the feature on straight away, or schedule it to turn on and off at certain times.

Tap the weather widget to get to the weather app

You may notice a slightly different look to the Pixel’s home screen — that’s because Google has included a few widgets, something that you probably wouldn’t have found by default on your Nexus phones. The most notable of these widgets is the weather widget, but did you know that you can simply tap on the widget to go straight to the weather app? It’s a nice, quick way to get to the weather forecast for the next few days. If you want more, then check out our best widgets for Android roundup.

Set up pulse notification lights

You may not know this, but the Google Pixel and Pixel XL actually have a hidden notification light that’s disabled by default. It might take some getting used to to figure out what the colors mean, but that will come with time. To enable the light, head to Settings, then tap Notifications. You’ll need to tap the settings gear in the top right hand corner, and turn on the pulse notifications light switch.

Quickly get to the camera from anywhere

Many people are aware of the fact that you can quickly access your camera from the lock screen, but it turns out you can access the camera from any screen on your phone. Simply double press the power button, and you’ll be taken straight to the app.

Switch to selfies with a gesture

Once you’re in the app, it’s super easy to switch over to taking selfies. You could hit the camera switch button, but you can also twist your wrist twice to make the camera switch from the rear-facing to the front-facing sensor. Double twist it again to switch back to the primary camera.

Hold down the take photo button to use burst mode

Want to take a burst of photos instead of just one. You don’t need to tap the take photo button as fast as you can — instead, just hold the button down and the camera will take a burst of photos. It will even go as far as to make a little animation out of those photos, after which you can look at all the pictures and choose which one’s best.

How to enable the FPS counter on the Razer Phone

Razer built an FPS counter into its first Android phone so you can see exactly what’s going on with that 120Hz display.

120 FPS. That’s the boast from Razer about how fast games can run on its first Android phone. The 120Hz display with UltraMotion sync is one of the centerpieces of the Razer Phone, and while not everything will push it to its limits, there are games that do.

Some games have a built-in FPS counter to tell you what’s going on. But Razer didn’t leave it to chance and included one buried away that anyone can turn on. Here’s how you do it.

First, enable developer options

The FPS counter for the Razer Phone is buried inside the developer options menu, so only proceed if you’re happy to enable this hidden menu.

Go to the Settings menu.
Scroll down to About phone. Tap it.
Scroll down to Build number (your build number may vary from ours here).
Tap it seven times.

If successful you’ll now see a message telling you that you’re a developer (if only it were that simple.)

Now, turn on the FPS counter

You’re now ready to turn on the FPS counter.

Go to the Settings menu.
Scroll down to Developer options.
Scroll down almost to the bottom until you find the monitoring section.
Enable show FPS value.

You’ll now have a permanent FPS counter overlayed onto your phone. It’s nothing more than green numbers, but you can at least move it around just by holding your finger on it and dragging to where you want it to be. For most of us, it doesn’t serve any real daily use, but it’s great to show off to your friends!

Snapchat now suggests filters based on what you take a picture of

Your filters are getting smarter.

During the short stints in which I actually use Snapchat, it’s quite obvious that filters are a big part of the app. Customizing your photos with little graphics helps to give them that iconic Snapchat look, and over the years, these filters have become smarter and smarter. Snpachat filters can tell how fast you’re currently traveling, what the temperature is around you, and even recommend certain ones based on where you’re at.

Now, according to a Snapchat representative that spoke with Mashable, some filters will be available based on what you’re actually taking a picture of.

This is a feature that Snapchat’s reportedly been rolling out to its users since last week, and it’s dead simple to use. After you’ve taken a photo of whatever it is you want to send to a friend or add to your Story, swiping through your filters like usual will now show you special ones if you’ve taken a picture of something that Snapchat can recognize. These filters currently pop up for pictures of concerts, pets, food, sports, and beaches, and we’d expect more to be added as time goes on.

I tried out the filters for myself, and I managed to get one that said “food cam” when taking a photo of a stock turkey image, as well as one that read “beach please” when taking a picture of a beachfront. You can try out the filters for yourself by taking photos of these things in real life, or by simply searching Google Images for relevant images like I did.

A redesigned Snapchat app is in the works

Google Pixel 2

See at Verizon
See at Best Buy
See at Google Store

For the second year in a row, Google’s Pixel series has the best camera out there. Not only is the 12MP sensor improved over its predecessor’s, but the addition of optical image stabilization makes for some incredibly stable 4K video.

The Pixel 2 also adds an excellent portrait mode from both the front and back cameras, which is a lot of fun to play with, along with Motion Photos, which capture a bit of movement before and after the shutter is taken.

At the end of the day, though, the simple fact that you can rely on the Pixel 2’s camera to take a great photo in almost any lighting condtion makes it the best camera around.

Bottom line: For the best possible photos from every type of situation, the Pixel 2 is your best choice.

One more thing: The Pixel 2 and Pixel 2 XL share the exact same camera hardware, so they produce the same quality of photos.

Why the Google Pixel 2 is the best

Back when Google released the Pixels in 2016, no one expected them to have the best cameras in the Android ecosystem. In 2017, the legacy was already established, and no one had any doubt: the Pixel 2 series has an amazing camera. Whether you go with the diminutive Pixel 2 or the larger 2 XL, the same fundamentals are true: incredible photo quality in any lighting condition; bullet-fast shutter speeds; amazing video stabilization; and fun features, like Portrait Mode and Motion Photos.

The Pixel 2’s camera app doesn’t have the same breadth of features as many of its competitors — there’s no manual mode at all — but much of the magic happens behind the scenes. Google has also added a new piece of hardware to the mix, the Pixel Visual Core, to allow third party apps to access the machine learning prowess of the Pixel 2’s camera.

Best runner-up

Samsung Galaxy Note 8

See at Verizon
See at AT&T
See at T-Mobile
See at Sprint
See at Best Buy
See at Amazon

The Galaxy Note 8 shares the same fundamentals as its S8 counterparts, but includes a secondary telephoto lens that adds a portrait mode called Live Focus.

The Note S8 takes excellent photos in just about every situation, leaning on those bigger 1.4 micron pixels and bright lens to make the most of dark scenes. Samsung’s new processing is a bit less saturated and more balanced than the GS7, but still steps away from “neutral” and leans toward “pleasing to the eye” instead — that’s not an issue, but simply a characteristic of Samsung’s cameras. The GS8’s edge detail and sharpening are much improved all around from last year.

The camera app is still blazingly fast to open and consistent, adding in a whole bunch of shooting modes and a few neat features that enhance the experience.

While the second sensor and lens combo isn’t essential, the dual OIS and portrait mode combo makes it one of the most potent out there, and a great alternative to the Pixel 2.

Bottom line: The Note 8 is a joy to shoot with, especially since it has such a great manual mode.

One more thing: Samsung’s front-facing camera also offers auto focus, which is a nice-to-have feature you don’t get everywhere.

Best for tweaking

LG G6

See at Verizon
See at AT&T
See at T-Mobile
See at Sprint
See at B&H

LG has taken the dual camera setup from the V20 and vastly improved it with the G6. Both sensors are identical 12MP units, leading to increased quality of the wide-angle shots and more similar shots overall between the two. This makes the dual camera setup more valuable, as you can lean on the 125-degree wide-angle lens in the same way as the standard 71-degree one.

Despite having relatively small 1.12-micron pixels, the main camera takes amazing photos paired with its f/1.8 lens. During the day it’s quite neutral and true to life, while at night it does well to recreate the scene without adding light that isn’t actually there.

LG’s camera app can still be a little slow and isn’t as fast as Samsung’s or simple as Google’s, but gets the job done. And as a trade off it also offers a whole heap of manual controls so you can tweak anything you want.

Bottom line: With a main camera that can challenge the competition and an extra wide-angle shooter, the G6 offers many great options for photos.

One more thing: The LG G6 is also the cheapest phone in this lineup, offering perhaps the best value for your money when looking at the cameras.

Best balanced

Huawei Mate 10 Pro

See at Amazon (Mate 10)

The Huawei Mate 10 Pro (which isn’t officially available in the U.S. yet), has one of the best dual camera systems out there today. Sharp, detailed photos from come from the main 12MP color sensor, while the 20MP secondary monochrome sensor helps pull in a tremendous amount of light for darker shots.

Huawei has always made phones with decent cameras, but the Mate 10 and Mate 10 Pro take things to another level entirely. The camera app is still a bit wonky — you have to manually activate HDR, for instance — but there is an excellent, full-featured Pro mode and plenty of ways to tweak a photo after the fact.

Bottom line: The Mate 10 Pro contains Huawei’s finest camera yet, and it’s a joy to use.

One more thing: The Mate 10 Pro is coming to the U.S. in the new year.

Conclusion

Google still has the best camera when it comes to photo quality, but it’s followed closely by three other phones that all have their own perks. The Galaxy Note 8 is fast and feature-packed, the LG G6 has its dual cameras and the Mate 10 Pro has incredible low light performance.

Some say that saving money is Essential.

Is this deal for me?

We’ve seen Android phones push the limits over and over in 2017, and one of the bolder moves was the near edge-to-edge display that Essential introduced. While the phone received some mixed reviews, people have fallen in love with the look and feel of it, and now owning one just got a bit more affordable.

Right now you can pick up an unlocked Essential Phone from Amazon with the 4K 360-degree camera for $399. This discount is available for both the black and white versions of the phone.

The phone features a 5.7-inch LCD display, 4GB of RAM and 128GB of internal storage. Some locations may have it available for same-day pickup, but if not you can opt for next-day shipping so you won’t have to wait long to play around with it.
