Like I said, we haven’t done any work to resolve it, yet. We are tracking this issue and fully intend to resolve it. My intention was not to imply that we don’t care about issues happening on developer preview releases, just to be transparent about how we prioritize work.
For what it’s worth, as far as I know the Pixel is shipping with 7.1 and doesn’t suffer from this issue, which I’ve only heard about on the developer preview you can optionally install on the 6p.
Yup, that’s why our QA has been running the developer build on a 6p as well, tracking the issue so we can resolve it for our next planned release (this week’s build was released to enable that work).
Again, we have no intention of ignoring issues regardless of platform, and we’re proud of our record of doing whatever we can to address OS issues when they come up. I appreciate your patience @Mark_Sherman, and we look forward to working this out soon.
