911 calling issues have been a persistent problem for Pixel devices.
- jb1991 1y agoHow is that even legal.
- resonious 1y agoWhile quite frightening, how could you even test this? You can't just make test calls to 911, can you? (I'm actually somewhat interested in the answer... I have a use-case, and the seeming inability to test is a bit worrying)
- jstrieb 1y agoHaven't tried it myself, but this official-seeming website suggests that you can schedule a test call ahead of time with your local 911 call center. https://www.911.gov/calling-911/frequently-asked-questions/#faq-title-96cbf5ac-8efc-4659-802a-1ff96e8ea71b https://www.911.gov/calling-911/frequently-asked-questions/#...
- thenthenthen 1y agoYou can schedule a 911 test call. "Test calls can be scheduled by contacting your local 911 call center via its non-emergency phone number."

- vasachi 1y agoI'm pretty sure Google can buy a femtocell to simulate local mobile network of their own.
- brookst 1y agoPhone makers (and even their supply chain partners) operate their own in-building cell networks with carrier-type hardware, and extensive debugging and observability, including simulation of multiple towers and location. It wouldn’t get you 100% E2{ for 911 testing, but it does let you develop and test the stack extensively before taking it to the real world and scheduled testing coordinated with 911 call centers.
