If you have a Pixel 6, updating to Android 15 might be a risky move right now
  • The Android 15 update for Pixel devices is causing unexpected bricking of Pixel 6 devices.
  • Users report their Pixel 6 becoming completely unresponsive, with troubleshooting methods yielding no results.
  • The issue might be related to the Private Space on Android 15, but further investigation is needed.

    I thought this sounded familiar and sure enough, second paragraph:

    The Pixel 6 series has a history of running into issues after Android updates. Last year, the Android 14 update locked some users out of their storage, and earlier this year, factory resets left many Pixel 6 devices unresponsive.

    Disappointing, you’d think this wouldn’t happen with Google controlling both hardware and software

      i only expect more problems with more google control instead of less.
