As someone said on another thread, are you sure you have removed the plastic over the lens? It is very hard to see.

Yeah, it happens on mine as well. Does Samsung know about it? Or anyone found if it caused by software or hardware?

Dont have a plastic on it @jeromepearce

in the camera settings... change the Volume Key function from Capture to Zoom.

Hm nice try but, if the device is locked (screenlocked i dont know what are the correct words) and you press volumedown vor 3-5 seconds the camera mode automaticly starts.

Answering from the lockscreen

Is there any way to answer messages from WhatsApp, fb messenger etc directly from the Lockscreen without unlocking the screen? That would be so much more convenient to me.
That would be like in iOS I think. And, I believe, in some previous 7.0 developer previews it was available as well.

Yep, feature added in dp2 and removed in dp3... If i do not remember wrongly a google dev said they would have reintroduced this option very soon. But even after 7.1.1 dropped this option did not come back.

Yes, I think that's the way things were going.
So, don't you guys believe there's any way to get that feature back, with some modding or kind of?

Have you looked at custom ROMs? Maybe one offers the feature you are looking for.

I have the same issue, I hope one of those jabronis forwards my message to Google devs.

I know this doesn't solve the issue on Google's end, but using Flash Kernel fixed this for me.
ElementalX Kernel did not, @flar2 said that his kernel is the same as Google's with respect to the charging.
Never asked @nathanchance if he made changes to charging in his kernel, but it charges within 2-2.5 hours for me.

This issue really fu**s up. My third pixel and it also charges from 0 - 100 in 5 hours.
Can you link to the kernel?

It's the same 5 hours whether at home, work, and anywhere else?

I only charge at home.
But i don't think it would charge faster at work

I just find it difficult to believe that 3 phones in a row all have a slow charging issue. The common denominator is the place you're charging. Doesn't hurt to try somewhere else for more testing.

Other phones haven't any problems with charging here.

I've had this issue also, but not every time.
For me the fix is a reboot and then charging goes it down to 2 hours or so.

This bug is really strange

What prior phones did you have with some kind of fast charging?

We have iPhones, S8+, S7 etc. here. All are charging well. I had the first Pixel XL, too. I had no charging problems with it. But the 2 XL is charging very slowly. 4-5 hours for a full charge. Some guys at android-hilfe.de have the same problem

Very strange. I've heard of the issue but to have a few replacements with the same problem. ??

I'm having this 5 hour charge issue as well, but I started using an old moto z play stock charger and the phone now charges in like 1.5 hours. Crazy.
