Pixel 6 fails to install Android 12L after last February update

Google Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro

Android 12L is slated to receive the final version sometime next month, but it's already a fairly stable beta build. However, Pixel 6 and 6 Pro owners cannot install it at the moment. Google, meanwhile, plans to release another Android 12L build in March.

Last Thursday, Google released a new build of the February security patch for the Pixel 6 and 6 Pro, which on the surface doesn't seem to change much. In the past few days, this update has been widely rolled out as OTA.

Once installed, the fully updated Pixel 6 users could no longer download the Android 12L Beta 3. Although you can register your device via google.com/android/beta, the OTA does not appear even after 24 hours. This is an intentional limitation - due to the more recent February patch - and not a bug, and Google confirmed this yesterday:

"If you enroll a Pixel 6 or Pixel 6 Pro that is on the latest February build SQ1D.220205.004, you will not receive an update to 12L Beta 3, but will instead receive the next upcoming beta build release in March as long as you have your device."

Manually sideloading the OTA should also not work and you will encounter an error during the installation process.

Meanwhile, Google says there will be an "upcoming beta build release in March" that fully refreshed Pixel 6 phones can install. This should be the pre-launch Android 12L Release Candidate (RC) and not a Beta 4 (or anything like that).
