Preparing your Pixel or Nexus device for a new build of Android 8.1 Oreo can go a long way in avoiding issues and serious headaches.
Google has released a brand new Android 8.1 build for Nexus and Pixel devices, including Pixel 2, Pixel, Nexus 5X, and Nexus 6P.
The May Android 8.1 Oreo update mostly focuses on fixing potential security vulnerabilities, but it can have a significant impact on your device’s performance.
Some of you may see an increase, while others may experience problems. Nexus and Pixel users have been complaining of various software-related issues, and we expect the list to grow as time goes on.
Google’s new Android Oreo update will improve the security of your device and most of you will want to install May Android 8.1 Oreo build on your device. Just make sure you do some prep work first.
The unpredictable nature of Android upgrades is why we recommend preparing yourself and your device for migration. It’s impossible to tell what will happen when you start the download and installation process.
Before we install new Android software on our devices, we’ve put together a game plan that will show you everything we usually do.
We took these steps before downloading Android 8.1 Oreo and the software works fine on Pixel, Pixel 2 and Nexus 5X (so far).
