Pixel 8a isn't getting updates
I got my Pixel 8a from T-Mobile on Nov. 5. On that day, the phone had the Nov. 5 security update and the Oct. 1 Google Play System update. The next day, I got the Android 15 update. All was fine, until sometime in mid November I found out there was a new Play system update, so I went to update. But when I check for that update, I keep getting the same error, as you can see in the below screenshot. It's been giving me this error for weeks. So, I contacted Google, and they told me that it was some Android 15 bug. They had me submit a bug report, so hopefully they will get it fixed. But here's the weird part. There's an online tool called the Pixel repair tool, and you can use it to update your pixel phone manually. I tried it earlier today, and it said that I had all the latest updates, which isn't true, especially as just yesterday the December Pixel drop and security update released. So that got me thinking, has T-Mobile not let the updates pass? I know that phone updates usually go through the carrier, but I doubt that the Google play system updates have to go through T-Mobile first. If anyone has any info about how long it takes T-Mobile to send out updates and/or a fix for this problem, please let me know.Solved105Visto0likes2ComentariosRe: Unlocking a Sprint Phone?
Update: I talked to T-Mobile TWICE, the first time they told me they would call back about the phone being unlocked after a few days, they NEVER called back. The second time, they told me that all sprint phones are already unlocked. Today I got my TextNow SIM, with the app telling me it can't be activated because MY PHONE IS STILL LOCKED. What the heck T-Mobile??? I'll be going to a store and ask a person to get the phone unlocked. Why did they claim the first time that they were unlocking it, and the second that they already were?358Visto0likes0Comentarios- 469Visto0likes0Comentarios
