    @PhAndersson Hello, it happens to me now, and it also happened with previous OTAs, that the phone uses only the earpiece instead of the speaker for ringing, so the ringtone is silent. It was not possible to set it up, but restarting the device helps. I have a feeling that this happens after connecting the speaker via Bluetooth (hands-free in the car).

    @arubislander Good thought. Perhaps I should have mentioned that I use Tor (or a public computer) because this site forwards user data to Cloudflare. I believe that live a session won't prevent fingerprinting/canvassing, regarding my accessing this site; and and not help regarding the problem of 'missing files' in the Google bonito file. Any more ideas?

    I found something interesting on a super-partition. Maybe this can help with getting the super partition issue for the Google Pixel 3a resolved? I'd need someone more technical in this realm to weigh in. https://xdaforums.com/t/guide-universal-guide-for-making-your-partitions-inside-super-read-writable-again.4483933/

    @thedeafenguy From what I know about anti rollback protection, you can downgrade or upgrade without problem if you don't relock bootloader.

    @zpeedmaster The easiest way to downgrade the Pixel 3a is to use the Android recovery tool in the chrome browser (not Chromium). Choose factory image PQ3B.190801.002 (the required ROM) from here. Then use the pixel repair tool in Chrome following the onscreen instructions. Check this thread out: Return phone to latest Android 9 (the steps below refer to the Android Flash Tool -- using the flash-all.sh script also works fine but starts with the phone booted into the bootloader) check that 'adb' is not running (otherwise, stop it with 'adb kill-server') turn phone on the usual way redo basic setup, as bootloader unlock returned it to factory default (see above) reconnect to phone using 'adb devices' to get prompt to authorized PC and allow it visit following URL in Chrome (authorise pop-ups in browser): https://flash.android.com/ select device select target build (PQ3B.190801.002) DO NOT select to relock bootloader click Install Build (confirm, accept license) DO NOT interact with device during flashing it reboots to fastboot reselect device in Chrome flash successful -- power cycle device reboot to Android 9, redo initial setup, enable dev. mode, USB debug, connect and allow PC, turn phone off

    Hmm. @thebroison are you SURE it's a Pixel 3 and not 3a? You say UT is running normally on this phone?

    @OtaDr Thank you for sharing the link, however, I do not watch youtube. I appreciate your effort in trying to help me. It simply looks like UT is not an OS designed for my needs.

    @uwahl Ok thanks for this information :). It's good to know that the test_gps utility is not reliable. Unfortunatly for me all the apps (Pure Maps, uNav, SensorsStatus, Gps Toolkit) don't give me any fix. I hope someone can bring me a solution

    @Abba Actually Miracast works quite well on the Pixel 3a now. But it is hit or miss if it will work with any particular Smart TV or dongle. If you are looking to buy a dongle, then as mentioned before the Microsoft one is the best bet. Otherwise Sony and Samsung smart TV's also seem to consistently work.

    Many thanks to all those who responded, first of all. Based on the initial comment by @wally, I made some further tests yesterday night. Indeed, the car kit has a button/function to import the contacts from the phone, but it fails to import anything. Its message is that maybe I need to authorize the sharing on the phone. I also tried to export all contacts to vCard on the phone (successfully), then to browse to that file in file manager, then shift-left and click on the sharing icon, but that only listed "Messages" and "Dekko" as potential targets. New import attempts from the car kit ended up with the same error message. So I guess that this "sharing" icon is where a "BT File Transfer" app would need to register itself. For the record, this is how I used to send contact info to the car kit from my Nokia N900, using a BT transfer app called "Petrovich'.

    @thekosmix The hardware doesn't support. There's DisplayLink but it's a proprietary tech that needs a special adapter and it doesn't work in UT.
