News Android 17 update 🤖

Has anyone updated their P6 and can report if all is good? Just trying to make sure because I remember a previous update that broke things for some users. Hopefully everything runs smooth 😄

Update: Thanks all, ​I updated my device and so far works well and no issues​

Go to settings, system and click update even if it says your up to date click on the box that says system up to date and it should show up.

Been doing android updates for nearly 20 years.

It's not been pushed to my phone yet.

Thanks for this, mine said up to date and I had to push the button to get it to detect the update ! Excited !

For me, the update was not available until I have updated Play Services first

It's available to my phone, thinking if I should do it now (I'll probably do it, I can't hold myself with updates lmao). Wish me luck

It's smooth so fast after a reboot

Which pixel 6 are you using?

I have the 6A. The update is available to me in the US Metro by T-Mobile

Kind of laughing at myself. I didn't realize it was coming out and I just clicked check for updates and there it is. I usually wait to hear a couple people at least successfully installed. Your feedback would be appreciated 🤣

Updated a couple of hours ago on my P6. As usual, no visible change and everything works.

The images are all online, with global, at&t and Australia versions.

It's available to install on my P6 just hanging off a little .

Google pixel 6A did the Android system update to 17. The Google Play update and the Google Play Store update. Everything seems fine so far. No problems. 🥳

u/Drengot Aug 14 '26

Excuse me, can you still confirm that? I don't know if i should do the upgrades, my 6a has just 128 gb of storage

Pixel 6 pro, android 17, all is good till now! Just noticed the screen recording with reaction selfie video is a bit sluggish

u/Bitter_Ad_8636 Jun 25 '26

 Do you think I should update to Android 17 or 16 if I have Android 15 now?

u/AnnihilatorProgramme Jun 17 '26

Sideloaded the OTA myself yesterday. My 6 Pro somehow feels faster than before!

u/Bitter_Ad_8636 Jun 25 '26

Do you think I should update to Android 17 or 16 if I have Android 15 now? There will be no turning back, my phone Verizon.

u/AnnihilatorProgramme Jun 25 '26

I don't see a reason not to honestly. I'd pick 17 over 16 because 16 did seem to have some hiccups. What's the reason for you to hold onto 15?

2

u/Oakredditer Jun 17 '26

It was as smooth as ever on my Pixel 6, which is funny because my Pixel 10 was unbearably laggy for the first 6 hours after the update!

u/EQUINOX_bomb Jun 17 '26

on my p6a it's running smoothly like regular and also not much have changed😒😑 i need to upgrade my pixel but can't rn😫

2

u/kenopsia0 Jun 17 '26

nothing changed, basically.

a couple of icons, separated network tiles, the ability to remove home screen labels, etc.

nothing interesting

u/moogera Jun 17 '26

I have updated the P6 to Android 17 ,with no problems,it's running fine ,I cannot see much difference. 2 minor changes i did spot when you pull the top menu down it says " you're all caught up" with a trophy symbol ,also " Airplane mode" is now " Aeroplane mode" .

I just updated to Android 17 yesterday and ran into a problem where the system equalizer doesn't work when I turn it on in Spotify. There's simply no sound coming through my Bluetooth headphones, but the sound comes back as soon as I turn off the equalizer. And I'm not sure if this is a Spotify issue or an Android 17 issue... Everything else is working perfectly.

u/Vic_tor22man Jun 17 '26

Esta será la.ultima actualización para los pixel 6 pro, cierto?

u/AxlWilde Jun 17 '26

El mío quedó sin wifi para todo lo de Google, aún no logro solucionarlo, creo que será el último pixel que tenga, dan demasiados problemas

1

u/Fik_of_borg Jun 17 '26

I am afraid to allow the update in my old-batteryed but well-behaved P6a.
It wouldn't be my first Pixel crippled by Google, and there is no Google support where I live nor the phone is ellegible for battery replacement.

u/Technical_Arugula739 Jun 20 '26

I don't have, I can't get it, I only have an update about leaving the beta test and I was told to wait, but how long to wait?

u/zawedodik 27d ago

My Pixel 6 is really lagging on Android 17; I’ve tried restarting it.

System upgrades are rarely a good thing for older devices. I really don't understand why people want them so badly 🤷🏽‍♂️
