In addition, two members of the Android Authority team have experienced the same issue while testing their review units.\n\nOne potential workaround suggested by the team is to update system services on your Googlebook. However, this solution has not proven effective for the Android Authority team, who are all using the stable Android 17 update on their Pixel devices.\n\nThe team members testing the Googlebooks are using a Pixel 9 Pro XL, a Pixel 11 Pro XL, and a Pixel 11 Pro Fold, all running the ASUS Googlebook 14 with software version 17.CL3B.260622.271.R1. Despite trying a factory reset, the issue persists.",
