Google started rolling out Android 17 QPR2 Beta 7.1 today for Pixel devices, one week after the previous preview. That earlier release lacked major user-facing changes. The update carries build number CP41.260831.019.
Today’s release includes one fix: resolving severe UI stuttering and multi-second freezes, tracked under Issue #571186734. Users can report bugs through the Android Beta Feedback app on Pixel devices, accessed from the app drawer or Quick Settings, to log issues in Google’s tracker. The Android Beta community on Reddit is also available.
System images are available for the Pixel 6a, Pixel 7, Pixel 7 Pro, Pixel 7a, Pixel Tablet, Pixel Fold, Pixel 8, Pixel 8 Pro, Pixel 8a, Pixel 9, Pixel 9 Pro, Pixel 9 Pro XL, Pixel 9 Pro Fold, Pixel 9a, Pixel 10, Pixel 10 Pro, Pixel 10 Pro XL, Pixel 10 Pro Fold, Pixel 10a, Pixel 11, Pixel 11 Pro, Pixel 11 Pro XL, and Pixel 11 Pro Fold, as well as the Android Emulator.
Those on 17 QPR2 Beta 6 who chose not to test QPR3 yet eventually received Beta 7 as an on-device OTA update.
