Literally backing up my device to do the update when this pops up. That was close.

Software updates aren't what they used to be anyways, but w/ the buggy updates, I've been dragging my feet even more. I'm usually 1-2 months behind nowadays on my 7a

Off topic but has anybody experienced a pixel touch screen just flat out stop working? I have a 6a and the screen displays just fine. It just doesn't register touch. I can't even log in to my phone..it's useless. I had to reactivate my old pixel 3 just to have a phone until I figure out what to do.

There's an option called Screen Protector Mode that ups the sensitivity on the touch screen. That might help you hopefully?

You can plug in a mouse with the adapter that came with the phone to get around the touch screen not working temporarily to change the option.

I tried the mouse thing with a wireless mouse. Do I need a wired mouse for it to work? I can't seem to get that to work at all. This is all so frustrating

Yes, both my wife and I's phones died in the same way. Register touch, but no screen.
