Android 14 storage bug fix now available as a separate tool for Pixel devices stuck in reboot loop،
If you are a Google Pixel user on Android 14, you may have fallen victim to this pesky storage bug affecting devices with multiple user profiles. If this is you, your device restarts repeatedly and you are worried about losing your data while applying the latest software patch, read on.
The original “test” patch appeared to resolve this issue, however, it was not released to all devices and required users to sign up to test the patch via a Google form. The test appeared to be successful because a few days later the November patch was available as a hotfix. However, for devices stuck constantly restarting, this wasn’t a solution because they couldn’t install updates until the phone restarted. It was a lose-lose situation.
However, if you are one of the users who have already submitted the Google form to receive the test patch with the November update, you will receive an email from Pixel Support this week with instructions on how to recover your data . The process is exactly the same as the specialized solution available through the repair tool.
