I bought a second hand GP 3 from a unofficial seller , then i was so excited to flash twrp until i saw my oem grayed , and now i know that my phone is a Verizon version
When I hit "fastboot flashing lock_critical" it says "FAILED (remote: unknown comand) finished. total time: 0.003s". Is this still working? Edit: Found out this does not work anymore on new OTAs.
android 12 if im not mistaken, it should be possible since the android 13 are being patch with anti rollback firmware bootloader patch. feel free to correct me if im mistaken

My device (Google Pixel XL) shows using ADB commands. But I can't open it because of it’s bootloader unlock. Can anyone help me to give a better suggestion plz..??
I need help! When I typed "fastboot flashing lock_critical " It gives me this Error: FAILED (remote: 'unknown command') fastboot: error: Command failed How do I fixed this?
Doesn't work no matter all the various options I researched - spent better part of a day trying to get this to work. I really want to install GrapheneOS but can't seem to make it work no matter what I try
1. Remove Google account and any kind of screenlock (fingerprint, PIN, pattern, etc.) from your device. 2. Eject sim card from your device. 3. Reset your device. In setup wizard, skip everything, don't connect to WiFi, don't add fingerprint or any kind of screen lock. 4. Go to Developer Options and enable USBdebugging. 5. Connect your phone to PC 6. Open CMD in adb directory and type Code: adb shell pm uninstall --user 0 com.android.phone 7. Restart your device 8. Connect to WiFi, and open Chrome. Type any website in and hit enter 9. Go to developer options and press OEM Unlocking 10. 10. Reboot into bootloader via CMD and type the following code: Fastboot OEM unlock or Fastboot flashing unlock 11. Be aware that unlocking your bootloader will erase everything
+alberto rodriguez for Motorola you just need to go through their website to unlock...only the carrier/Fi version is bootloader unlockable, the Amazon version isn't.
Nope. All other Pixel 2 XL's from all other providers can have the Bootloader unlocked but NOT the Verizon variant. That's why it's best to buy it directly from Google and NOT from Verizon. I'm in the same boat as you. The gang over at XDA-Developers.com are still hard at work trying to find a way to do it tho. I think I might have a way around it. DM me for more info.
