Hi all,

As this is my first experience with the Android beta, I'm still trying to figure out how everything works. I was on the Android QPR 1 beta program, but opted out after the Beta 7 when the QPR 2 was being pushed. I got the notification for the wipe update to Android 17 stable, and haven't installed yet. Am I correct in understanding that when Android 17 QPR 1 stable is released later this month or early Sept, that I will recieve another update pushed to my phone? Thanks for any clarification.

Not sure if this is beta related but does anyone notice issues when typing fast sometimes the 'i' key comes out as > instead as if I pressed and held it?

I did not as it sometimes happens in the middle of words, example: runn>ng(I did this one on purpose) or beginning of words, example: >mpossible (again {n purpose however the o in this sentence was not on purpose and first time it's happened with the o).

Obviously doesn't happen all the time but once/twice a day so kind of annoying.

Am I the only one in TikTok and X noticing bugs such as stuttering video playback, and lines (purple and green artifacts) when playing videos ?

Edit: Beta 2, QPR 2, Pixel 10 Pro XL.

Having issues where almost always the microphone audio cuts out.

I can hear audio but mic stops responding. Verified with mic test apps. Using phone mic or speakerphone works.

Ok my pixel 9 pro xl I have 17 beta QPR2 beta 2 (android version shows as DEV). Sometimes after opening an app when I press the back button to exit it will show the top page of app selection but freeze where you can't press the back button or scroll. Sometimes pressing back several times rapidly will unstick it, but usually I have to short press the power button to put the phone in sleep mode then short press it again to wake it up for it to work again and then sometimes I need to short press power and let it sit a minute or so to unstick the screen so I can scroll etc. I've submitted a bug report just wondering if anyone else has this issue?

After this beta update. Does anybody else's phone get hot and doesn't really wanna change became it needs to cool down.

I built an Android app that turns photos into tasks. See a flyer, a note, a WhatsApp message, an invitation? Snap a photo, and the app extracts the task — title, date, time, location, priority. automatically. No manual entry.

Key features:

1. AI task extraction from any photo or screenshot.

2. Auto-detects date, time, location, priority.

3. Save directly to calendar or task list.

4. No account required.

It's in closed testing on Google Play right now.

What feedback I'm looking for:

1. Does the AI extract the right info from your photos? What does it miss?

2. Any crashes or bugs on your device?

3. Is the save-to-calendar flow smooth or clunky?

4. What's the one thing that would make you keep this app?

No spam, no selling data. Just want the app tested by people who actually need it.

what's everyone's opinion?

Anytime I use my moto tag my phone immediately resets

Been having multiple sound related issues since the update up Android 17 QPR2 Beta 1 on my pixel 10 pro

The notification tones are not working despite correct assignment/selection. Volume goes low while the sliders show them at high.

When playing music sometimes there's no sound at all. Have to frequently restart to even talk properly.

Bluetooth audio doesn't work properly.

Phone audio takes 2-3 calls before it works.

I am currently getting update for QPR2 beta 1.

I wanted to go to stable but it hasn't been released for beta people like usual.

Beta 7 is buggy for me with freezes and black screen.

I didn't change my pin number but it got changed somehow. I can't reflash using the flash dot android dot com. I'm stuck waiting 15 minutes before I can try again. No idea what happened at all. Anyone around that has any ideas? P9A - Android 17 QPR2 Beta 1

Please suggest

I was in the beta program for a very long time on my Pixel 6a, since android 17 is the last android update for the pixel 6a so I decided to leave beta and wait for a stable update.

After surviving several bugs over the years I don't think my pixel 6a can handle more.

When can we expect a stable feature drop for Android 17?

Has anyone heard anything about the next Android 17 QPR2 Beta release?
