First Pixel 9 and 9 Pro update fixes Wi-Fi issues

With the Android 14 September security patch, the Pixel 9, 9 Pro, 9 Pro XL, and 9 Pro Fold are getting their first post-launch update with just a pair of fixes.

There are two fixes across Wi-Fi and Security this month for Pixel devices. The latter for Pixel 6-8a removes a Verizon demo “Showcase” APK that was impractical to leverage as a “vulnerability” since it required unlocking the device among other steps.

Meanwhile, all the Pixel 9 phones benefit from improved Wi-Fi stability with this update.

  • Pixel 9:                  AD1A.240905.004
  • Pixel 9 Pro:          AD1A.240905.004
  • Pixel 9 Pro XL:    AD1A.240905.004
  • Pixel 9 Pro Fold: AD1A.240905.004
