Ahead of that happening, though, we\u2019ve got at least one more beta release to check out, as Google begins distributing Android 17 Beta 4.1 to testers.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Don\u2019t want to miss the best from Android Authority?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img class=\"e_Jg\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" sizes=\"9.375rem\" title=\"google preferred source badge light@2x\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/google_preferred_source_badge_light@2x.png 676w, https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/google_preferred_source_badge_light@2x-64w-20h.png 64w\" alt=\"google preferred source badge light@2x\" src=\"https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/google_preferred_source_badge_light@2x.png\"\/><img class=\"e_Jg\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" sizes=\"9.375rem\" title=\"google preferred source badge dark@2x\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/google_preferred_source_badge_dark@2x.png 676w, https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/google_preferred_source_badge_dark@2x-64w-20h.png 64w\" alt=\"google preferred source badge dark@2x\" src=\"https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/google_preferred_source_badge_dark@2x.png\"\/><\/p>\n<p>If it\u2019s felt like a minute since we last got a proper Android 17 Beta (and not another QPR1 preview), you\u2019re not wrong \u2014 it\u2019s been about a month and a half since Android 17 Beta 4 dropped. But now as Google starts getting down to the zero hour for changes before Android 17 goes stable, it\u2019s got what very well could be its last new update to deliver.<\/p>\n<p>Google identifies five main fixes present in Beta 4.1:<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019ve been experiencing any of those, don\u2019t hesitate any longer to update to Google\u2019s latest release. Those testers running the Beta will see a notification when their new build is ready to install \u2014 there\u2019s one for Pixel 6 and 7 hardware (CP21.260330.011.A1) and another for everyone with more recent Pixel devices (CP21.260330.011).<\/p>\n<p>If you haven\u2019t started testing yet, and for some reason were waiting until just the last minute possible to give Google\u2019s Beta a spin, you can register for the Beta Program or just cut to the chase and install Beta 4.1 with Google\u2019s Android flashing tool. Everybody else, though \u2014 feel free to wait for stable in hopefully just another few weeks.<\/p>\n<p>Thank you for being part of our community.
