[Bug] April 2022 security update is ruining the experience of Google Pixel users

Google has already released the April 2022 Android Security patch for Pixel 3 to Pixel 6 devices. But it seems that the April patches have brought a new bug in the Pixel house: smartphones change without warning ringtone, notification tone, and alarm.

The most curious fact is that apparently, the audio clips chosen by the system are completely random, and often they are not even selectable as a ringtone: to one of 9to5google ‘s colleagues, for example, the smartphone has set the sound of the start of video recording and that of the start of reverse charge.

The bug occurs both to users with patches released in the stable channel and to those who are testing the third QPR (Quarterly Platform Release, formerly known as Feature Drop): April patches are included with Beta 2 released less than a week ago. At this point, it is not clear if it is possible that, once the tones are restored, the system will change them again or if it happens only once. Let’s say that for now there are no reports that indicate the first scenario, but maybe it’s a matter of time.

  • Ringtone: The Big Adventure
  • Notifications: Popcorn
  • Alarm clock: Bright Morning
