How to join the Android 14 Beta Program if you’re not already subscribed
Special Android 14 QPR2 Beta 3.2 release is sent to Pixel 5a units only
The warning continues, “You will not be able to unenroll and revert back to a stable public version of Android without first wiping all locally saved data on your device. You may also encounter issues restoring a backup. We recommend reviewing the latest release notes for Pixel phones before enrolling in Android Beta.” In other words, if you use the Pixel 5a as your daily driver, you might want to pass on subscribing to the beta program since beta software is notoriously unstable.
Pixel 5a users rave over the patch
Pixel 5a users have been ecstatic since installing the update. One wrote on Reddit, “My 5a is running 200% better.” Another said, “This might be the most meaningful Android update of my whole life. My phone was nearly unusable for the past 3 weeks. Wow, what a glorious feeling to have the burden lifted from my shoulders.”
Again, this patch was earmarked for the Pixel 5a only as it appears that this model was impacted the most by Android 14 QPR2 Beta 3.1.
