The package keeps the September 2025 security level, signaling a maintenance-focused release.

  • Fixes include a semi-transparent background persisting after launching the camera and a System UI crash when starting or stopping casting via the Media Output Switcher.
  • Pixel 9 and Pixel 10 devices get a correction for the flashlight status missing from the At a Glance widget, while Pixel 7 phones receive a remedy for screen flicker and unexpected shutdowns.
  • Additional notes list a Pixel 10 series fix for occasional frozen or fuzzy displays and a Pixel Tablet stability improvement addressing system instability.
  • Builds are BD3A.251005.003.W3 for Pixel 10 models and BP3A.251005.004.B1 for most others, with regional variants such as BD3A.251005.003.J5 in Japan and an A2 build for the Pixel Tablet; Verizon earlier disclosed these details before the OTA appeared.
