Android 10: New Bug afflicts many Pixel, OnePlus and Xiaomi Smartphone owners

A new Bow seems to bother Smartphone owners with an operating system based on Android 10.

Όas referred to in a related article by XDA Developers, the number of Smartphone users running Android 10 is increasing daily, who report a serious operating system stability problem.

In particular, at times their devices seem to freeze completely as soon as an application crashes, and the only way to reset your device is to press Power to lock it, and then immediately unlock it again to return to functional status.

The first to report the problem was Artem Rusakovskii by Android Police, who after the report he made on Twitter to point out this particular Bug, followed a large number of users who confirmed the same behavior on their own devices running Andorid 10.

Another thing that really bothers me on the Pixel 4 XL - when an app freezes up, it oftentimes locks up the whole UI. Notifications, home gesture - everything becomes unresponsive.

Sometimes the UI unfreezes when the app does, sometimes the app remains frozen.

Anyone else?

While the vast majority of the reported problems come from the devices pixel of Google with Pixel launcher, but there are several owners who have OnePlus and Xiaomi Smartphones, and face the same problem.

So it seems that this particular Bug is not related to the boot program (launcher) that their device has, as there are many users who have installed Launcher Third Party Developer such as Nova Launcher or Action Launcher, and face the same problem.

The applications that usually freeze seem to be primarily its application Amazon, Twitter, YouTube, YouTube Music and the Google Play Store. This freezing has also been observed in various navigators such as Chrome, which accidentally freezes the playback of the video posted on a page.

Although most of the affected devices use Android 10 as the basis of their operating system, the Android Police  also reported that it faces the same problem and one Pixel 3 set its Beta version  Android 11.

So it seems that this particular Bug is deeply rooted in his system Google Android, and does not apply exclusively to Smart ROMs of Smartphone manufacturers, such as MIUI for example Xiaomi.

In fact, as many users in  Reddit, face the same problem in others Custom ROM based on Android 10, including the AOSP 10, LineageOS 17.1 and others.

So far no one was able to send in the perfect solution, which is not strange. Google has not released any official statement on the matter. We'll let you know when Google responds to this issue with Android.
