After suffering for years with a crappy OnePlus 5T phone key experience with my Model 3, I bought a OnePlus 8T and it has been flawless. That is, until about 1-2 weeks ago when I installed a system update which I believe included an update to Android 12. It reset a lot of my settings, but i think i have everything set up the way I had it before. However, there is a definite issue with the phone key now. Whenever I walk up to my Model 3, it often takes 5-10 seconds of trying to open the door before it actually unlocks. It is also slow to respond to pushing the button on the charge cable so I can pull the cord out. All of this used to be pretty much instant before the update. Has anyone else experienced this? I haven't tried unpairing and setting up phone key again, but not sure if that would make a difference.

I get that with my iPhone Pro 12 sometimes too. I’ve had to blow out the entire setup and redo the process. Seemed to help. I’m not sure about Android though, as I have no experience with those. Best of luck.
I have a oneplus 8T running Android 12 as well. Post update the performance of the phone key has been pretty good. Only 1 or 2 instances where I had to open the tesla app, to have the car recognize the phone and unlock. I would try erasing the cache on your phone, that will sometimes help after an update to clear out any conflicts.
