Much like it did with the first Android 11 Developer Preview, Google today released an update for Android 11 DP2 that fixes some bugs for folks who are testing the beta.
Google today began rolling out Android 11 Developer Preview 2.1. It's build RPP2.200227.014 and it brings a handful of fixes, including one for a bug where the status bar could crash in the background and another where the Wear OS could crash when trying to pair a Wear OS watch.
Here's Google's changelog for Android 11 DP2.1:
General
- Fixed an issue where a crash would occur when long pressing to select an element within the recent apps overview.
- Fixed an issue where the status bar could crash in the background if its components weren't all initialized yet.
- Fixed an issue where too many WindowTokens were created by SystemUI causing jankiness and dropped frames when navigating and scrolling apps.
Apps
- Fixed an issue where the Wear OS app could crash when trying to pair a Wear OS device.
- Fixed an issue where the Settings app could crash after tapping the search bar in the app.
Google's Android 11 Developer Preview is currently only available to the Pixel 2, Pixel 3, Pixel 3a, and Pixel 4 devices. If you're running the Android 11 Developer Preview or you have an eligible Pixel and want to try Android 11 DP, you can flash it using Google's Android Flash Tool or manually flash a system image.
