For about a year I could tell when my phone was about to ring in my pocket before the screen turned on. Something in the telemetry hardware stack whirring up made it feel a very very very near-imperceptibly tingly.
But then I changed phones and it doesn't happen anymore. Or, lower chance, there was a software update.
I believe it was the Pixel 3a.
