Some Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro units are having screen crack issues
Android Police

This is an issue that is reported by many users a few months ago, but just recently being mentioned by the media and here we are. Apparently some Pixel 6 users out there reported their phone has a crack on the front glass.

Users on Reddit and Google's support forum\ had been reporting it back when the phone is first released in a few weeks time. Pixel 6 Pro got a much noticeable and bigger crack since it has a curved screen, some Pixel 6 units out there also appeared to have the same issue too.

Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro are using Gorilla Glass Victus, it weird that the glass crack easily. It could be probably due to manufacturing defect but Google hasn't provide any information on the issue yet and they are actively investigating it.

So yeah, we hope Pixel 6 users in our community don't face this issue since it only happen for a few.

Spotted by Mishaal Rahman, Google recently submitted and merged commits which will add an LC3 codec type (LE Audio) for Bluetooth A2DP in the Developer options.

Android 13 could possibly gains 'Panlingual' feature for per-app language settings
Android Police

You probably preferred to use another language rather than following the system language in some apps, and a good news is Android 13 could make this feature possible for every app.

For now, the development of the feature is in early stage and might subject to change. Anyway, the feature will be implement in “Language & input” or individual "App info" screen as of current findings. You will find option there to change the app interface language there, but yeah, if the app doesn't support the language that you choose, it will just stay at its original language.

Some apps already have their internal language settings which let you do the same thing, but with this feature introducing on Android 13, you can change to use individual language that you preferred on any app.

Google disabled Call Screen and Hold For Me on Pixel 6 devices temporary
9To5Google

December update for the Pixel is set to bring a ton of bug fixes & improvements, but due to an unknown bug, Google has disabled Call Screening and Hold For Me on both Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro.

Recently, Pixel 6 users are reporting that they saw their phone have no Hold for Me and Call Screen feature. It's not your phone issue, Google has confirmed that they have disabled it via server side due to a “bug in the December Android update.”

All the region builds and the global builds on December update are affected, with Google saying they are actively working on resolving the issue.

Pixel 6 December update breaks some devices auto-rotate
Android Police

By this point, I suspect that the December update is adding bugs instead of resolving bugs. Users have been reporting poor connectivity issue and Google themselves disabled Call Screen and Hold for Me in the Phone app due to some issues. And now, even auto-rotate is broken.

Users on Reddit and Google's support forum reported that their phone's accelerometer and gyroscope isn't functioning anymore. They said auto-rotate and automatic horizontal images just isn't working properly for them, and they have no clue what's causing the issue. Android Police's staff also managed to reproduce the issue too.

Some happen to find out a temporary solution, by restarting the phone, all those features get to work once again, but it still randomly break after awhile. The phone seems to be having problems communicating with those few sensors. The issue might get a fix in the next update if Google can noticed it, hopefully.

*There are more issues that are yet to be discovered by the media, and also some of these issues only happened to a few, hope you guys who own the device don't face the issue.

Android 13 “Tiramisu” come with big changes for notification, new lock screen clock options and more
XDA Developers

Android 12L will be released to the stable channel in Q1 2022, and we already got some early looks of what's coming on Android 13.

A few days ago, Android Police has reported Android 13 will come with per-app language settings, and XDA Developers provided screenshots and prove that the feature is currently being worked on. Next, notifications will become a runtime permission on Android 13 (POST_NOTIFICATIONS). You will be able to choose whether to allow that specific app to send notifications via the app permission menu.

Android 13 is also working on The Android Resource Economy (TARE). Not sure how I am going to explain but read more over at the article. Lastly, Android 13 let you choose to retain the single-line clock layout. Sadly, no persistent double-line clock layout.

That will sum up some of the upcoming features in Android 13. Learn more in the original article.
Best wishes for a joyous Christmas filled with love, happiness and prosperity!

Merry Christmas and have a great day.
