my pixel 4 crashes if I play an audio
it is only if I play it with the build in phones. more often if the battery is low. it is by podcast, by signal audio messages, NewPipe videos… outside, when its cold it is also more often. when I charge it doesen’t happen.
it seems it is something with the battery. but why only by sound?
does anyone else have the same problem with the pixel 4?
the operating system ist the newest grapheneOS.

I have this on my Pixel 4XL. If the battery is below 35% and I play audio, it reboots. It's annoying. And this is running stock Android, so I believe it's a kernel problem.
haha funny 35% for me it is the same. wehen it's a kernel problem, shouldn't it then on all Pixel 4? does an upgrade or downgrade to another android could change the problem?
I can't think of another explanation. An upgrade should fix it, but whether Google will do an update or not is another issue.
My P4XL is fine playing audio. I almost exclusively use AntennaPod, if that helps.
it is also if I play a podcast trough the speakers with #AntennaPod. one of my often used apps btw. an excelent product and #floss.
Likely a power consumption spike of some sort that produces a voltage drop under the minimum voltage for the battery. Older batteries would drop deeper for the same load. Change the battery.
