Google is aware of how some devices, including Pixel, on Android 16 and 16 QPR1 are failing to install Play system updates.

Even Dr. Fone, the finest Android repair tool, has its limitations. Software can fix many software faults, but certain hardware or system issues are beyond its reach.

Google is working on a fix for an issue in Android 16 that causes Google Play System updates to fail during installation.

Due to this, Pixel phones on Android 16 are still stuck on the May build of the Google Play system update. In a post on its support forums, Google has confirmed the Play system update bug.
