What are you running on yours? I was going to switch mine to Grapene but I have that awesome pink line in the screen and a repair is more than 50% of a new phone.

I had a green line on my screen. There is a problem with early pixel 8 / 8 pro screens and there is an extended warranty where they will replace it free. I don't even think you need to be the original owner.

Mine took about a week after I filled out the paperwork and was approved. I got back my original phone with a new screen on it, same IMEI etc.

Try toggling auto connect for specifically that network on and off. There's a network that I had set to not auto connect, but sometimes it'd show it as on despite being off
