Android 17 QPR2 Beta 6 fixes some annoying bugs while taking a few features away
Not everything made the cut in Beta 6
Google has released Android 17 QPR2 Beta 6, just over a week after Beta 5. This new version addresses some bugs, including an issue with the Pixel 9 Pro Fold that caused unexpected device reboots when using a third-party camera app, according to Android Police.
The release of Beta 6 comes as part of Google's Quarterly Platform Release (QPR) beta program, which allows users to test new features ahead of their official release. Android Authority reports that Beta 6 is currently available for devices up to the Pixel 10, with Pixel 11 builds expected soon.
Beta 6 includes fixes for various issues, although the specific details of these fixes, beyond the Pixel 9 Pro Fold issue, are not fully outlined in the reports. Google typically releases QPR betas on a roughly two-week cadence.
