Google is rolling out patches to fix some Pixel bugs<\/a> after the phones received the latest Android 13 update last month. The September 2022 monthly update is being delivered throughout the week to most devices, addressing issues like unexpected battery drain and disabled wireless charging<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The patch won\u2019t arrive on Google\u2019s newest phone, the Pixel 6A<\/a>, until later this month. The Pixel 6A has one fix specifically included in the list, addressing its fingerprint scanner\u2019s recognition \u201cin certain conditions.\u201d As noted by Consumer Reports<\/em><\/a>, some owners of the new phone have found it will unlock using a finger they hadn\u2019t registered or for the fingerprint of an entirely different person.<\/p>\n

For the increased battery drain, Google\u2019s blaming a launcher background activity issue and says it has fixed that in this update. And if your wireless charging wouldn\u2019t always activate, this update is supposed to restore that functionality to the Pixel 4, 4 XL, 5, 6, and 6 Pro.<\/p>\n

Google\u2019s turbulent start with the Android 13 launch is unfortunately not a first. The first major Android 12 update last December was supposed to address a number of launch issues<\/a> and add new features on its Pixel 6 and 6 Pro, but Google had to pause its rollout<\/a> after finding that some phones would disconnect or drop calls. It was one of the rockiest starts<\/a> for a wide release of Android yet, and hopefully, history doesn\u2019t repeat itself with the Pixel 7 launch right around the corner<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Our September software update begins rolling out today to all supported Pixel devices running #Android13<\/a> and will continue over the next week. The updates include improvements to:
Battery & charging
Bluetooth connectivity
User interface<\/p>\n
