Several <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.reddit.com\/r\/GooglePixel\/comments\/qkxoq0\/my_pixel_6_phantom_called_someone_again\/\">users on Reddit<\/a> have reported that their Google Pixel 6 and 6 Pros are making phone calls while it\u2019s inside a pocket, or sometimes at random moments throughout the day or night. Is your Pixel 6 butt dialing people? If so, try this fix.<\/p>\n<p>Since pre-orders first started arriving within the last week, we\u2019ve seen reports about a few small Pixel 6 problems, from\u00a0fingerprint issues to a green tint and light flickering on the display. Now, it looks like the phone could randomly call people, even when it\u2019s locked.<\/p>\n<p>At first, we thought this was an isolated incident, but now there are several reports on <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/social-mediaa\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"1\" title=\"Social Media\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Reddit<\/a> saying the same thing. From what we\u2019ve gathered, the issue stems from the Google Assistant misunderstanding something or thinking it heard the \u201cHey Google\u201d hotword, which eventually leads to the Assistant making a phone call.<\/p>\n<figure style=\"width: 1920px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-60198 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.reviewgeek.com\/p\/uploads\/2020\/11\/bae17126.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" data-credittext=\"Justin Duino\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\"><span class=\"imagecredit\">Justin Duino<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Users can even go into their \u201c<a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/myactivity.google.com\/myactivity?product=31\">Google My Activity<\/a>\u201d history on the phone and see if the Assistant has made any phone calls. That, of course, is if you have your phone set to save the history. Either way, the situation isn\u2019t ideal, but there does <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">app<\/a>ear to be a fix. While we can expect Google to issue a software update soon to fix it, for now, you\u2019ll have to disable some aspects of the \u201cHey Google\u201d Assistant feature.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_Stop_Google_Assistant_From_Making_Calls\"><\/span>How to Stop Google Assistant From Making Calls<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>If your Pixel 6 is calling people at random, try this fix. Simply open the Google app, tap your profile picture in the top corner, and choose settings from the pop-out menu. Next, tap on \u201cGoogle Assistant\u201d to access its settings menu.<\/p>\n<p>Now that you\u2019re on the Google Assistant settings menu, select Lock screen, and <strong>disable or turn off<\/strong> the <strong>\u201cAssistant responses on lock screen\u201d<\/strong> feature. Now, the Google Assistant won\u2019t randomly wake up, misinterpret a sound, and make a phone call.<\/p>\n<p>Keep in mind that this is just a temporary solution until we learn more about the problem or until Google releases an official update in the coming weeks.<\/p>\n<p><small>via <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/9to5google.com\/2021\/11\/05\/google-assistant-on-pixel-6-is-randomly-placing-phone-calls-for-some-heres-how-to-stop-it\/\">9to5Google<\/a><\/small>\n<\/div>\n<p><script>\nsetTimeout(function(){\n  !function(f,b,e,v,n,t,s)\n  {if(f.fbq)return;n=f.fbq=function(){n.callMethod?\n  n.callMethod.apply(n,arguments):n.queue.push(arguments)};\n  if(!f._fbq)f._fbq=n;n.push=n;n.loaded=!0;n.version='2.0';\n  n.queue=[];t=b.createElement(e);t.async=!0;\n  t.src=v;s=b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0];\n  s.parentNode.insertBefore(t,s)}(window, document,'script',\n  'https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/fbevents.js');\n  fbq('init', '1137093656460433');\n  fbq('track', 'PageView');\n  },3000);\n<\/script><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
