A fix will come over-the-air “in the coming weeks”.

Okay no qualms here, but you mentioned hottest phone? Seriously?

I bet 90% of us here can’t even get this phone, let alone give a damn about it.

Oh yeah, google own flagship having ram management issue? I thought software wise supposed to be perfect because “stock android” right?

And the fix will come on December? You kidding me google?

                  Nah, its because of the mere 4GB RAM in their phones. 6 or 8 would've been great but they choose the Apple way though.

                    I'm I don't believe RAM is just the issue, the software makes the Pixel 3 special, and pure hardware adds on, the better the well thought out software and good hardware works together, the better the overall, performance and experience of the phone will be. However RAM cannot be the entire case, I remember reading up on our beloved boot looping issues for the G4, LG stated software could actually fix the boot loop which is completely false.

                    My Pixel 3 randomly closes apps that aren't even running in the background, in order for me to receive messages on messenger, I need to actually be on messenger itself, certain app notifications don't show up either unless I am on the app the notifications belong too. alongside all this, sometimes I am using an app and it just closes on me, like it was forced closed by the phone itself, the past few times I have checked for multiple things that could lead to it, overheating, low battery, other apps but none of these things are ever the problems. Please, Google, I surely cannot be the only user with this issue. Do something!

                        As of now, Oxygen & EMUI offer the best ram management on Android world. Real world test across many reviewer proves it. Its funny that stock Android dont make it right.

                          RAM management problem on a $800 phone?! Which comes with 4 (FOUR) GB RAM in almost 2019?! + whenever they tried to "Optimize" the battery life with any android update (started with 6.0), we either had 'RAM management issue' or 'notification issue'. Please Google, learn from OnePlus and put at least 6GB RAM!

                            Deezer closes prematurely in my Google Pixel 2016

                              I have said it earlier, Google will fix the ram management issue with the software on the Pixel 3 phones on speedtests and for other issues like some closing apps when doing other apps

                                What is causing RAM management issues?
                                Is that caused by bad kernel?
                                What is method for tweaking RAM management?

                                My phone has the same problems, but I have root and TWRP. I tried several apps, to tweak values, but hasn't helped. I can't find solution. There are a lot of idiotic tutorials and conversations on the internet, that are useless.
