Hello everyone, I'm currently having an issue with my pixel 7.

Any time I unlock the phone, it doesn't matter what I try to do, open an app, whether it be settings, vanadium, etc the icon indicating I opened the app pops up, and then just freezes, my phone becomes unresponsive and either i have to force reboot it, or it'll do it itself after a set period of time.

Sometimes when I do the restart and I try to unlock the phone it just shows the arrow in the far left corner, no home button or the square button to switch apps. I'm not sure what's wrong, but i cant do anything with the phone because it freezes 5 seconds later and I get stuck in this loop of sorts.

I notice in my notifications when I swipe down that sometimes it'll say something along the lines of finishing the update install and it never goes past the 25% mark.

Is there any remedy to this problem? Has anyone run into this issue?

    Lrf3601 Have you tried safe mode?

    Yes, I tried safe mode, phone freezes when I try to open apps like settings still.

      Lrf3601 I have a few questions that hopefully can help figure out the cause...

      • Is your phone up to date? Latest stable release is 2024022800.
      • Are you using the default launcher? If not, what happens if you switch back to the default launcher. Does that solve the issue?
      • Does the issue occur in a new profile?
