Due to a March update error, Pixel 7 and 8 phones have effectively lost functionality

On Google’s help forums, numerous Pixel users complain that since March, calls have not been reaching their phones. Users mention that their phones don’t ring, and they only realize someone called when they receive voicemail notifications. Similarly, some SMS messages are also reported to be delivered with delays.

This issue is not confined to a specific country or region but is experienced globally by Pixel 7 and Pixel 8 series users. This suggests the problem is not from a service provider, indicating a broader spread.

Users suspect that the issue likely stems from the Pixel smartphone update conducted in March. However, the exact cause remains unknown, and users started experiencing these issues following the update.

Even users who installed the April update are still facing the same issue. Google has not made any statement on this matter in the forum. One user shared that the support team couldn’t resolve the issue after contacting Google support.

The user was advised to reset mobile connections or completely reset the phone. Although these solutions worked for a short time, the problem reappeared. This leaves Google Pixel users in significant uncertainty and discomfort.

The troubles experienced by users and Google’s failure to provide a solution thus far raise questions in the tech world. It’s a matter of curiosity how Google will resolve this issue and regain the trust of its users.
