Google is rolling out a new beta update to eligible Pixel phone users. The latest update is a follow-up to Android 14 beta 5, that arrived a few days ago to address issues reported by beta testers.
Android 14 beta 5 remains the last scheduled update in the beta program, as we won’t be seeing Android 14 beta 6. The current build is only a bug fix, which doesn’t count as a milestone. The same thing happened during Android 13 beta testing.
Meanwhile, the Android 14 beta 5.1 update is seeding for Pixel 4a 5G, Pixel 5, Pixel 5a, Pixel 6, Pixel 6 Pro, Pixel 6a, Pixel 7, Pixel 7 Pro, Pixel 7a with a version number UPB5.230623.005 while Pixel Fold and Tablet are getting UPB5.230623.005.A1 build. Both builds are on the August 2023 security patch.
Android 14 beta 5.1 changelog
- Fixed an issue that caused the system to stop detecting a SIM card if Fixed Dialing Number (FDN) features were enabled.
- Fixed an issue that caused connectivity interruptions for devices with carriers using 5G standalone (SA) mode.
- Fixed an issue for some devices where a blank home screen displayed after unlocking the device.
