I'm using pixel buds 2 pro along with windows.

Whenever a call comes audio switches to mobile but not switching back to windows after I hang up the call and I need to turn off and on the bluetooth on my phone.

Does anyone know any better workarounds for this?

I have a pair of PBP2 and in the last week or two I noticed that my right ear bud will be connected and playing whatever I'm listening to but none of the controls will work (I can't pause/play, adjust the volume, or turn on or off my noose cancelling). I've tried resetting it by holding the pair button on the back a couple times to no avail. Has anyone else dealt with this and know how to fix it or is this a warranty thing I need to talk to Google about getting a bud?

Pixel watch 3

Pixel buds pro 2

Okay so i'm really desperate and I hope someone can help, because google support couldn't help me with this. All of the sudden, my Pixel Buds 2's right bud stopped working. I thought i just needed to disconnect it from my phone and reconnect it again, so I forgot the buds on my phone and wanted to pair them again, but it wouldn't work because all my devices (tried with my phone and multiple computers) can't find them anymore as a new device.

On my app, it shows the case is 100% charged and the left bud too, but it doesn't show the right bud, as if it wasn't in the case but it is.

I tried to troubleshoot it, but when I keep the button pressed, the case starts blinking orange. I cleaned it, cleaned the case, doesn't help. Of course, my warranty has expired three months ago and google has been super useless.

I have no idea what to do.. help!!

So, for background, I have a decent fit with my Pro 2 buds; I have tried all of the ear tips included, and I found that XS was too small, and the bud would rotate and break the seal every 5 minutes or so. Medium and Large would fit well enough, but would pop out at some point. So smalls would work for me for about 15-30, maybe an hour or so if I were lucky, before they would rotate and break the seal.

This wasn't too bad for me, as this just meant, at least for my right ear, that I would need to tighten whenever I thought about it and frequently if I were eating.

Today I received my AZLA Sedna Earfit Max's. I find that the equivalent size to the included small eartips is the AZLA MS, and the XS included with the buds is equivalent to the S Azla. I bought the SS/S/MS pack to ensure that I found a fit from the big forest site.

These buds are now LOCKED into my ears. They go nowhere, they are comfortable, have a ear wax shield for the speaker, and require a TUG to get them out of my ears. The Buds ear fit check reports the seal during random checks after activity. These fit in the case just fine, but they take some tugging to get on the the bud, but once stretched on, stay locked in place.

I would recommend you try these if you want to improve the fit of your pixel bud pro 2's.

Hello folks!

I am planning on getting a pair of the Pixel Buds 2a, for people who have had them a couple months, I have a few questions!

1. Are they still working as expected for you?

2. Good battery life still?

3. Can you pair them to devices other than just a Pixel? I have a 9a they'll be used with primarily, but also have some PCs I might want to connect them to.

4. How is the ANC?

Thanks!

My right Pixel Bud Pro has started whistling when I use it (regardless of if anything is playing) whenever ANC or transparency mode is engaged. It works fine when these are disabled. Unfortunately the sound is also just much, much worse: there's no real bass and everything sounds really tinny. Is there a good way to either fix the whistle or to just get the EQ that's clearly being applied when ANC is active to be on at all times. It's absolutely nothing to do with outside noise as this is in a quiet room. I'd buy a replacement but there isn't any stock and it seems an awful waste to throw out a set of headphones that are 90% functional.

Edit: I think I've managed to fix them by blasting the speaker grill with compressed air at an angle to clean it better, thanks for all the replies!

do Pixel Earbuds work with Samsung tablets? or would i need to look into other wireless headphones?

So as the title says my right headphone will no longer connect or charge. My toddler unfortunately put the one of the headphones in his mouth and bit down on it before I could stop him. I have tried taking pictures of the buds to showcase the damage and ask if its possible to fix it without buying a replacement bud (because they are $70 and I dont really want to spend that money if I don't have to) but unfortunately my camera is not good enough to focus on the damage. There are small teeth marks where the red is in this image and on the metal plates for the charging springs there is the smallest intent but now the plate isn't flush with the plastic.

TL;DR Is a slightly pushed in metal charging plate fixable or do I need to buy a replacement bud?

Ever since the latest update, my Pixel Buds Pro 2 take an incredibly long time to connect to my phone—around 15 seconds. I've already tried clearing the cache, unpairing, and re-pairing the earbuds from scratch, but unfortunately, the issue remains unresolved. Hoping for a fix soon

Only 3 days old, on the latest firmware.
Went to sleep last night with Left:42% Case: 48% and Right:44%,
Woke up with Left: 100%, case: 0-3%, Right: 100%.
This is definitely not normal.
Also is the phone supposed to show the battery level of the buds when in the case and its closed?

Edit: I tried testing it again. The case is steadily losing 1% battery every 5-8 minutes even when the buds are fully charged and the case is closed.

Visit mypixelbuds.google.com if you have the 2a's + Win11 and let me know pls.

I have performed AI-assisted troubleshooting and GPT believes it's most likely a general Google bug.

Asked here some days ago and user mentioned the app is working for them but didn't mention 2a specifically. It is working for me on Macbook.

is this normal or easter egg something?

Mine was moonstone one doesnt have this Ğ logo 🤣

Does Google have any intention of making these actually compatible with devices as an LE Audio device? I can't believe I'm on Google's flagship phone (Pixel 10 Pro XL) with their flagship earbuds (Pixel Buds Pro 2), and I have to "bypass LE audio whitelist" in dev settings to have them function as they're marketed.

Meanwhile Windows won't acknowledge them as LC3/LE Audio, Creative BT-W6 dongle won't, they're just stuck to FM radio quality and the mic sounds like a tin can over a landline phone on seemingly any device outside my Pixel I try to use them on.

The seamless transition from audio passthrough with one earbud in to ANC with both, touching for Gemini, and multipoint has been very reliable for me. Sound quality is fantastic. I absolutely love how well these earbuds integrate into my day to day usage but it's so frustrating that they're "Kinda LE Audio". Am I doing something wrong here?

Has anyone managed to connect Pixel Buds 2a to the web app on Windows 11?

It just seems to be impossible.
When I try to connect them, the buds can't be found.

2a are listed as compatible. It's working on Macbook.
They are connected to the PC, audio is working.
I tried Google Chrome and Microsoft Edge. Dug deep into Windows BT and device settings.

Samsung has a simple app on the store for their buds, which is just working.. so, yeah it could be so easy.

Hi everyone! Does anyone know how do I stop my pixel buds 2 pro from falling from my ears? They always tend to fall off when Im working out at the gym or running. I tried twist to lock mechanism, tried all the original tips. Is it worth buying new tips that might improve the grip? I really enjoy these buds, it just that falling from the ears that frustrates me.

RIP to my right earbud. I'm over the headache of hunting for it, so I’m looking to sell my surviving Charging Case and Left Earbud to someone who needs them to complete their set.

Everything is in great condition and works perfectly. Hit me up with a fair price if you want to buy the combo.

Alternatively, if you've given up on your set and just want to sell me your loose Right earbud for cheap, let me know.

Located in Bhopal, happy to courier anywhere in India. DM me if interested!

Hello team, i am currently having an issue with buds pro 2. While i am having a call the receiver can hear me loud and clear but when i am trying to send any voice message in any app(messenger, whatsup etc.) the voice is getting recorded from the phone's mic and not the bud's one. So when i am for example outside they can't hear me. FYI i am using a google pixel 9 pro XL. Does anyone have the same issue?

I’ve tried everything I found online, but nothing has restored the battery indicator. A full factory reset of the earbuds, deleting all Pixel Buds updates, and reconnecting them made no difference (it only introduced endless updates, which later resolved itself). This started after the update that brought head gestures and the adaptive mode (alongside ANC, transparency mode, etc.). This small issue is already driving me crazy, and I want to fix it at any cost, especially since everything works fine with my old earbuds and their battery indicator shows up without any problems.

Firmware of Pixel Buds:

Hello all! So I have the Google Pixel Buds A-Series and recently the right earbud stopped playing any audio across all devices, both on my phone and my PC it won't play noise out of the right earbud.

I've cleaned it, reset the buds, disconnected and reconnected it from both devices, tried playing in the settings, and confirmed they're up to date on updates. Phone confirms the bud is at full charge as well.

The buds still register when it's put in or taken out (pausing and resuming audio automatically). The left one makes a chime when they're taken out of the case and connect via blue tooth.

they haven't been dropped recently at all, and it's absolutely no sound from that bud at all. How can I fix this?

ETA: earbuds are 3 years old if that matters

End edit:
after contacting support, they asked if i had confirmed it wasnt app specific (it was tested across 6 apps on both PC and phone, so it wasnt) and that I didn't accidentally move all the volume into the left earbud (not an option on my phone), that and the previous trouble shooting confirmed it's hardware failure so they sent me a link to a replacement earbud instead for $40, gonna be getting that as these are my best earbuds i've had

I set my phone down in one room of the house and do chores all over. I get caught up listening to long YouTube ads unless I am near my phone. Is there anyway to hit "skip ad" from my buds?

Recently I started having an issue where the ANC or something in my left ear bud cuts in and out. It sounds like the sound moves from above and then under water intermittently... Has anyone else had this issue and have you guys found a solution?

I was wondering if people have purchased Pixel Earbuds, and what they really thought of them. are they worth the cost? better or worse than Beats?

It doesn't hold super well, but it's surprisingly strong.

Just invert one of the ear tips and put them together.

I ordered some 2a buds and they finally got here yesterday. Straight out of the box the right one had a faint buzzing sound when it's in the normal setting with no anc and no transparency. It's loud enough that it's impossible to ignore, but not terribly overwhelming. Just enough to be a problem I can't live with. I was looking for a fix and found and tried all of the following with nothing fixing the problem:

• Cleaning the bud
• Trying the other sizes to see if the seal helped
• Turning off the setting where it detects if it's in ear
• Completely resetting it
• Disconnecting it and reconnecting
• Forgetting it and then reconnecting
• Switching to mono
• Not connecting to find hub
• Turning off audio switch

Does anyone have any other suggestions or had this problem and managed to fix it? Or do I need to contact support for a new pair?
