Forwarded from Neutrino Kernel (Pixel 9 Series)
Just for the sake of updating anyone who might be concerned about the lack of updates recently - let me be clear it's not me, it's Google.
There are currently no kernel sources published for any of the A16 QPR1 releases. I got away with this on Beta 1/1.1 as the latest build of Neutrino remained compatible. However, as of Beta 2 the kernel no longer boots, and until Google uploads their sources there is nothing I can do about it.
I'm just going to hang back on Beta 1.1 for as long as is feasible and hope that they get their shit together sooner rather than later, but I realize that just isn't going to be a tenable solution for most of you.
I opened an issue about this situation today, in an attempt to get some attention on the matter, so if you guys want to +1 and/or make some noise in the comments that'd be great:
https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/424450093
Bottom line, they are obligated to make kernel sources available for all publicly released software and failing to do so is a major concern.

Android 16 QPR1 Beta 3.1 - Google Pixel 8 Series
Updated: 14/08/2025
By: Google
Download: Factory Images | OTA Images | Pixel Tracker
Changelog:
• Fixed device instability or reboots related to Wi-Fi by improving how the system processes network statistics
• Fixed the Context Hub, a low-power sensor component, would crash due to excessive use of main memory, causing device instability; resolved by optimizing memory allocation and preventing memory leaks
• Fixed the home screen sometimes lost its bottom row of pinned apps and the search bar, making them inaccessible; this was fixed by adjusting how these elements reappear after screen transitions
• Fixed notifications would overlap in the shade, hindering readability, by refining the notification display and dismissal animation logic
• Fixed an issue that caused unexpected device restarts
• Fixed the Quick Settings UI on unfolded foldable devices appeared clipped or misaligned due to incorrect padding caused by double-counting the camera cutout
• Fixed an issue that caused devices to unexpectedly reboot
• Fixed the status bar appearing in the Quick Settings shade was sometimes misaligned with the standard status bar, causing a visual inconsistency
• Fixed addressed a system hang or crash, particularly during unlock, caused by the camera’s Ambient Light Sensor (ALS) read getting stuck, by implementing a non-blocking method for sensor data retrieval
• Fixed the media player on the lock screen would sometimes disappear or become unresponsive
• Fixed an issue where the notification shade displayed a large, growing gap, obscuring notifications, by correcting how notification animations were clipped
• Fixed an issue where the media player notification could appear clipped or disappear during device rotation, by improving how its display area is sized and updated in UI transitions
• Fixed video calls initiated from voice calls no longer experience muted audio; a system audio fix now correctly manages sound output during call type transitions
• Fixed an issue where black translucent bars appeared at the top and bottom of the home screen after exiting full-screen apps by correcting how transient system bar states were cleared
• Fixed an issue that caused the device to unexpectedly crash and restart during an OTA update
• Fixed an issue causing occasional device restarts after system updates.
• Fixed widgets on the home screen sometimes failed to load due to looking for outdated app files.
• Fixed typing occasionally stopped working in apps because internal input system processes could race.
Device crashes caused by the Context Hub running out of memory.
• Fixed bluetooth crashes and instability caused by an “Unimplemented Packet Type” error have been resolved.
• Unable to handle kernel paging request, PC is at edgetpu_kci_release_vmbox, LR is at edgetpu_kci_release_vmbox
• Fixed an issue that could cause phone disconnections or system crashes during calls by resolving a memory corruption bug in audio data buffer handling related to audio playback speed changes.
• Fixed a brief screen flicker happened when launching apps from the notification shade.
• Fixed a system crash that could occur when using your device’s media features, especially when connected to a computer for media transfer, by improving the internal handling of media connection resources
Notes:
• Build ID: BP31.250610.009

• Fixed the home screen sometimes lost its bottom row of pinned apps and the search bar, making them inaccessible; this was fixed by adjusting how these elements reappear after screen transitions
• Fixed notifications would overlap in the shade, hindering readability, by refining the notification display and dismissal animation logic
• Fixed an issue that caused unexpected device restarts
• Fixed the Quick Settings UI on unfolded foldable devices appeared clipped or misaligned due to incorrect padding caused by double-counting the camera cutout
• Fixed an issue that caused devices to unexpectedly reboot
• Fixed the status bar appearing in the Quick Settings shade was sometimes misaligned with the standard status bar, causing a visual inconsistency
• Fixed addressed a system hang or crash, particularly during unlock, caused by the camera’s Ambient Light Sensor (ALS) read getting stuck, by implementing a non-blocking method for sensor data retrieval
• Fixed the media player on the lock screen would sometimes disappear or become unresponsive
• Fixed an issue where the notification shade displayed a large, growing gap, obscuring notifications, by correcting how notification animations were clipped
• Fixed an issue where the media player notification could appear clipped or disappear during device rotation, by improving how its display area is sized and updated in UI transitions
• Fixed video calls initiated from voice calls no longer experience muted audio; a system audio fix now correctly manages sound output during call type transitions
• Fixed an issue where black translucent bars appeared at the top and bottom of the home screen after exiting full-screen apps by correcting how transient system bar states were cleared
• Fixed an issue that caused the device to unexpectedly crash and restart during an OTA update
• Fixed an issue causing occasional device restarts after system updates.
• Fixed widgets on the home screen sometimes failed to load due to looking for outdated app files.
• Fixed typing occasionally stopped working in apps because internal input system processes could race.
Device crashes caused by the Context Hub running out of memory.
• Fixed bluetooth crashes and instability caused by an “Unimplemented Packet Type” error have been resolved.
• Unable to handle kernel paging request, PC is at edgetpu_kci_release_vmbox, LR is at edgetpu_kci_release_vmbox
• Fixed an issue that could cause phone disconnections or system crashes during calls by resolving a memory corruption bug in audio data buffer handling related to audio playback speed changes.
• Fixed a brief screen flicker happened when launching apps from the notification shade.
• Fixed a system crash that could occur when using your device’s media features, especially when connected to a computer for media transfer, by improving the internal handling of media connection resources
