AnonD-1003038, 07 Sep 2021Says an Anon who never held iPhone in person, let alone use... moreApple users are tired of complaining about these bugs rolled with each update.
It's cute to see RazerJoker tr0ll justify beta update dumped onto gullible iOS users as stable.
No matter how much you justify, you can't change facts.

I've never had any issues before now, I've had every previous pixel and run every beta with no issue. But on 12 with my 4xl the issues are more than present. Extremely annoying, I've considered switching to iphone.

Huge Battery drain in Google Pixel 4A-
Minimum around 35 to 45 % overnight when screen is already off and other functions like bluetooth, gps etc.
I have alredy sent them phone once and they said some apps might be using battery in background.And B2X sent me the phone in one day without informing me and without full check up ofphone.I had deleted all the third party apps but the issue was persistent.
And I have already sent them 4 videos of drainage and showing the background usage of appllication. Their answer is same.
Anyone facing this issue with Pixel-4A.

I'm still using the Pixel 2. Battery dies fast and there are some overheating issues, but still super usable and still an outstanding camera.

Google service in India is rubbish. They lie. My Pixel 3a stopped working. I sent it to B2X. They said my phone's main board has stopped working. They made false claims about 3rd party tampering and broke my phone and returned it to me. What should I do? They asked me to pay Rs 25,000. I bought the new phone for Rs 26,000.

I still use the LG G3 (D855K 16GB ROM / 2GB RAM SD801AC) with Lineage 18.1 (re: Android 11), LG had changed the Bootloader stack from KitKat to Marshmallow which killed users ability to downgrade OS, but someone figured out a bypass and using a root hack owners were able to downgrade the bootloader stack to KitKat version and then install TWRP which then allowed to installed custom OS without tripping the bootloader lockout, while the G3 can't compete with todays modern SoC smartphones I keep it around as a developer device, even though the battery is is now 7 years old it still holds charge for full usage around 12 hours to a maximum 24 hours, then again I am not using it for anything major just test apps before installing them onto my primary device with is a Pixel 4a5G.
As for EDL mode, it's not impossible to revive, if you can see Qualcomm EDL in the PC device manager when connected (what ever port) then using QPST (or even MiFlash) together with the full firmware (something like 3GB+ depending on device) you should be able to upload the firmware to the device and then reboot it, of course that is if you have the correct "firehose, rawprogrammer.xml and patch.xml) for the SoC and Qualcomm never release those .elf (firehose) files so you have to find a hacked one (probably from China or Russia and then it's up to you if you trust they have not been encoded to encrypt your the bootloader patch).
I had a ZTE Axon7 (A2107G version) that had this very same problem, I found the correct "firehose" .elf for the SD820 SoC and then used MiFlash to upload the entire firmware and within 40 minute the device was revived again, just search for the files and you can pretty much easily revive these soft bricked devices.

problem may be caused by mechanism protecting battery of the phone. As soon as battery of the phone is closing to date of the death firmware may slow down the device and after some time switch off the phone completely.

I have a question. Aren’t all the newer Pixels manufactured by Foxconn? Why are they still running into QC problems?
