    Once I did that everything worked.

      @Ant McFly I think i made two mistakes when i initially did mine, Firstly i used the command line method, don't do that unless you know what you're doing.
      Secondly in my platform tools when i was doing the command line method i have previous OS images still in that folder from a previous Flash, so my theory is i accidently flashed something completely different onto the Pixel because all my files were jumbled together. I'm actually just going to save for a Pixel 6a and going to try again using the web ui.

    Hi, new to the forum......I am having difficulty with the installation on a Pixel 7. I am able to enable developer mode and unlock OEM. When in the Fastboot Mode the "Warning Triangle" is Red and the device state is Locked in green. All android updates have been installed. I am also flustered by the windows/Android driver install. I am not really any good with tech. Now the phone is new but I did have it running for a week with a sim installed. Is it me, the phone or both. Thanks in advance for any help..

    • @ogzoomer1997
      @ogzoomer1997 2 года назад +3

      If you've already paid for your device in full, you can call your carrier and ask them to unlock your device. Device is only unlockable from carrier if it has been paid for; there may be other ways around it but I imagine there would be significantly more steps.

    • @davtra

      If it's carrier locked give your provider a call as Elias mentioned. Otherwise update your stock OS and then factory reset phone to have that option available.

    I have a Pixel 7 Pro and am stuck. When I first started the phone and when to Settings: System I could see "Developer Options" but it would not let me unlock the OEM. I could see the button but it was greyed out and I could not click it. The phone said I had to restart at that point in order to do so. After restart, "Developer Options" completely disappeared. I reset the phone with the last option under System but it did not change anything. I still cannot see "Developer Options" and cannot unlock the OEM...any suggestions?

    I like the new different videos. I always have weird things happen to me. I’d start a YT, but I hate talking to a camera, so I’ll give you some video ideas- a video on the truth of what can happen to your lost/stolen smart phone. My iPhone is in Mexico and it’s interesting to see where it is, where it goes. I stupidly lost it and didn’t realize until I was 3 hours away. Nobody has been able to unlock it yet. Apple says it’s worthless to anyone, but I got questions… What’s the difference b/w locked, unlocked, sim, e-sim cards? What’s the IMEI? Can someone get past the activation lock? Stuff the manufacturers and the cell carrier’s WON’T tell you and what you should do as soon as you lose it….??? And number 1, don’t be dumb like me.
