Google has released a new update for Android 13 Beta. Even though we are only halfway through the month, the new Android 13 Beta 2.1 patch will fix some issues affecting Pixel devices right after the initial release of the Android 13 public beta.
Google’s release notes include the following fixes:
- Fixed an issue where typing in the search bar resulted in an empty list of suggestions.
- Fixed an issue where devices would freeze and restart when turning on the hotspot.
- Fixed an issue where a continuous call sound could be heard in the background during a phone call.
- Fixed an issue where devices would freeze and restart after logging out of Android Auto.
This mid-cycle update still includes the same list of known issues as the Beta 2 build released May 11, except for those fixed above. According to 9to5Googlethe problem with the search bar persists despite the mid-cycle update.
Google Pixel 5, Pixel 6 Pro and Pixel 5a
If you are already on Android 13 Beta, the update will automatically notify you via OTA notification. If you’re using the Android 12 QPR (Quarterly Platform Release) Beta program, you’ll have to opt out and re-register for Android 13 Beta – keep in mind that Android 13 Beta is still in its early beta and there’s a meaty list of issues. Those wishing to sign up for one of the Beta programs can sign up here.
Remember, if you wish to subscribe, in most cases you will not be able to restore the public version without clearing the data. Make sure you do a proper research before signing up for a device you use on a daily basis.
