March 2025 Pixel Drop​

Your Pixel devices become even more helpful with Pixel Drops. They’re automatic software updates that send new and upgraded features to your phone, tablet, earbuds, and watch.*
Here are just some of the features to look forward to in the March drop:

Strengthen Scam Detection with the power of on-device AI
Scam Detection powered by Gemini Nano protects you from fraud with on-device AI. *[1] This Pixel-exclusive feature detects conversation patterns in calls commonly used by scammers in real time and will notify you if it senses anything suspicious.
And Scam Detection is now available in Google Messages, too.

Stream like a pro
We’re making streaming even easier for creators: With Connected Cameras, you can connect your Pixel to another camera — like a GoPro or another Pixel phone. *[2]

Keep connected with Verizon and T-Mobile
If you’re a Verizon user and you’re somewhere without cellular or Wi-Fi, Pixel can connect to emergency services via satellite to get help. *[3]
Similarly, for T-Mobile users, you’ll now be able to text 911 during an emergency and Pixel can connect to emergency services via satellite to get help. *[4]

Warum findet mein Telefon kein Update?
Die OTA-Updates werden z.T. erst später freigeschaltet.

Warum dauert das Update so lange?
Das Pixel hat zwei Partitionen, das Betriebssystem ist quasi doppelt im Speicher.
Wenn ein Update kommt, wird es auf die nicht verwendete Partition aufgespielt.
Anschließend werden Apps/Einstellungen von der aktiven Partition mit der bislang nicht verwendeten abgeglichen.
Schließlich wird der Cache aller Apps zurückgesetzt (Optimierung).
Wenn das alles erledigt ist, wird man zum Neustart aufgefordert.
Dabei wird dann auf die bislang nicht verwendete Partition mit erfolgtem Update umgeschaltet.

Damit man das Telefon währenddessen weiter nutzen kann, passiert das alles im Hintergrund mit niedriger Priorität.
Deshalb dauert es, und deshalb ist es egal, ob das Update nur ein kB oder mehrere MB groß ist.
Denn nicht die Änderung dauert, sondern das danach.

Der Vorteil ist, läuft beim Update etwas schief, kann auf die Version vor dem Update umgeschaltet werden.

Tipp: Wenn ein Update kommt, Abends ans Netzteil, Update starten und am nächsten Morgen neu starten.

Momentan arbeitet Google aber an der Update-Prozedur, damit die Updates schneller installiert werden.

Warum ist der Google Play Sicherheitsstand nicht aktuell?
Das Google-Play-Systemupdate ist unabhängig vom monatlichen Pixel-Sicherheitsupdate.
Es ist also durchaus normal, wenn der Google Play Sicherheitsstand älter ist!

Moin,

es gab zuerst ein 1,3 MB Google Play-Systemupdate, jetzt wird ein 550 MB Sicherheitsupdate heruntergeladen und ein Systemupdate installiert.
Schauen wir mal, was da kommt.
