Additionally, Android expert Mishaal Rahman says that according to a source, Google has completely halted the rollout of the January 2024 Google Play System Update, which is apparently to blame.<\/div>\n<div>\n<div id=\"gallery-59acc651-1b60-417b-aba2-c9d656a95792\" class=\"single-image-container  image-c\" style=\"width:732px;max-width:100%\">\n<div class=\"gallery-item\">\n<picture style=\"padding-top: 19.672131147541%\"><source media=\"(max-width: 350px)\" ><source media=\"(min-width: 351px) and (max-width: 500px)\" ><source media=\"(min-width: 501px) and (max-width: 800px)\" ><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/wikidollar.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Google-reportedly-halts-Google-Play-System-Update-to-temporarily-fix.jpg\" alt=\"Google Reportedly Halts Google Play System Update to Temporarily Fix Pixel Storage Bug Issue\"\/><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/picture>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<div style=\"display:flex; justify-content: center\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Google has paused the January 2024 GPSU rollout following reports of devices experiencing file access issues.<\/p>\n<p>Over the past few days, several Reddit users, especially those with Pixel phones, have been facing file access issues.

However, according to Rahman, this time Google has found the root cause and it could be related to the Dynamic Common Library Apex (DCLA).  DCLA is a mechanism used by Mainline to reduce the overall size of software updates by placing shared C++ libraries in a separate module.  In some cases, it appears that the DCLA Mainline module reverts to its factory version, causing compatibility issues with other DCLA compatible modules.<\/p>\n<p>To temporarily resolve the issue, Google has reportedly briefly disabled the DCLA feature, so that this issue does not occur again.  This will make some modules larger, but it should resolve the dependency issue and hopefully prevent users from being affected in other ways.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Google reportedly halts Google Play System Update to temporarily fix Pixel storage bug issue\u060c Amid the ongoing issue of some Pixel devices running multiple profiles experiencing a storage bug while installing the latest Google Play system update, the company has decided to pause the rollout in order to avoid further damage.
