software upgrades for Pixel 8a
I bought a Google Pixel8a thru T-Mobile in October 16. There was a software update when I was setting up the phone, but no further updates have been delivered. The phone still shows the last upgrade as from Sep 14, and Android is at 14, though Google released 15 for Pixel on Oct 15. I specifically asked if the five year guarantee of software updates that Google has will apply even if I bought the phone via T-Mobile and was told by the salesperson at T-Mobile store that it did. I am not sure what is going on, but I fiis state of affairs deeply disturbing, enough to wonder if it is worthwhile to stick with T-Mobile.
Voicemail notifications and OnePlus 9 Pro software updates
Last couple of times I seen I missed a call and never heard it ring. I did fix that issue why sound was turned down not sure. I discovered those missed calls did leave voicemail and that notification is not showing up. Came here to investigate and found issues with the software for the phone OnePlus 9 Pro. For the voicemail: When a voicemail is left there is no notifications showing for voicemail just a missed call. I have tried different things to get notifications to show but nothing has worked and went to the extreme and uninstalled the T-Mobile VVM knowing that I can always reinstall it later. That did not work, and yes restarted the phone several times and used the house phone to leave messages. If I know there is a voicemail I can retrieve and found them calling voicemail or using the VVM, I just want to know there is a message. Read where others have had this issue but could not find a simple way of fixing this issue. For software update: Question on this is if there is an update and T-Mobile does not provide it as quickly as OnePlus can you download the new update through OnePlus website? I am there and it goes into detail how to download to computer then to phone. Not something I plan to do at this time since I am not having any issues with the software unless it deals with the voicemail. Just reading where others have had issues with a new update that has caused them issues and the update is months older then what is available and thought to ask for future reference. Only have the phone less than a month and so far everything has been fine for me till I discovered notifications for voicemail not showing.
