If you unlock the bootloader of your Google Pixel 9 as I did, AICore refuses to download the Gemini Nano with multimodality model, breaking core features of the Pixel Screenshots app, Call Notes, and AI weather reports in Pixel Weather.
Pixel Studio doesn't use Gemini Nano, so it still mostly works.
Not surprising, but Google doesn't want people snooping around and messing with these features/the model.
