All of your issues seems like the cause is that animations has been turned off, or reduced. You can find that in developer options on the phone. Did you install a 3rd party launcher? Maybe that messed with animations? Or a theme-pack?

      Animations: the switch is not only in developer settings.

      DanielP
      Go to settings, type in the search field “animation”, then you get the right place w/o developer menu.
      I guess, the menu name is “Remove Animations”?
      I am German and am not sure with the English term in that Settings menu, but I guess you will find it.
      Maybe you remembering the last changes you've made there?

      I have this switch on at my P7P, but off on my P8P.
      For me it's fine, but if Panda-na's guessing is right, then this could be the switch to toggle as your remedy.

      Tip for such cases:
      Make a screenshot before and after changes of settings.
      If there are problems afterwards, remember the screenshots and find the old setting more quickly. ;-)

            Did anyone noticed huge battery consumption on the pixel 8 after update? On my pixel it dropped from around 80% to 45% in 6h, SOT 30min, no background processes running

              I found the animation settings. No matter how I set them the behaviour remains the same. ..:-(

                  Have you tried to switch to gesture navigation? It's most probably not at all related but maybe worth a try? A few day ago someone here mentioned that gesture navigation is (becoming?) Android's new default navigation while the 3 button navigation is being phased out and may cause bugs.

                      Phead
                      I did try that to no effect.

                      Thanks for all your suggestions so far. I really appreciate your help.

                      Best regards

                        Hi DanielP,

                        • scrolling:
                          Too bad that none of our tips could help you.
                          I don't have this error on my two newer Pixel phones.
                          Perhaps it only occurs in the firmware version for the Pixel 6 model series.
                          I hope that the developers will find a solution for this as well.

                          Currently facing the "Can't install Android Auto" error message in the Playstore. Using a fresh install on the Pixel 8. Has anyone else encountered this issue?

                            dsdx331
                            No, absolutely not!
                            On my two Pixels (P7P & P8P) the energy consumption is in standby: 1 % every 30 to 50 minutes, depending on how much e-mail (or other) notifications I get in that hour.
                            And at night/sleep time I have my phones in Flight mode and energy saving mode.
                            My Pixel phones then need 2 % energy in 9 hours with this setting overnight.

                            Tip: this new GOS version shows more about the battery statistic as before.
                            Menu path: Settings/Battery, then tap on one of the bars and see fine granulated bars for used hours.
                            Maybe you can find the big energy consumer that way?

                                Eagle_Owl strange, today battery usage seems normal, I noticed that I often have blank hours on the battery stats page, is this normal? image

                                    Yes, same here for times where the phone sleeps/has absolutely nothing to do.

                                    And the higher power consumption on your Pixel maybe was optimizing work in the background or apps have checked for backups in background?

                                    Or if you are using social media apps or e-mail and messenger apps, maybe there was a time with more notifications as usual?
                                    Or you use apps w/o a good Push Notification Service, they have to run in background and there were much new messages to load?

                                    These are possibilities…

                                      Will there be an update for the Pixel 7 Pro radio? I'm only getting 1-2 bars at home vs my Samsung S21 which has 5 full.
                                      Android Auto is the feature I was waiting for! Thank you!

                                      Hi fellas,

                                      My issue stated before doesn't seem to be grapheneos related....but obviously also not unique to pixel 6 nor android 14...

                                      [https://www.reddit.com/r/GooglePixel/comments/171fyzp/pixel_6_swipe_gestures_not_working_properly_after/] (https://)

                                      For some users it only seems to happen when charging. For me it's not working at all.
                                      Google support has been notified about this issue almost 4 month ago...

                                      [https://support.google.com/pixelphone/thread/238316055/pixel-6-swipe-gestures-not-working-properly-after-upgrade-to-android-14?hl=en] (https://)

                                      As much as I like my Pixel - if this isn't taken care of my next phone won't be Google made.
                                      Any news about the Graphene phone?...

                                      Best regards
                                      Daniel
