My Pixel 1 has the OEM unlocking greyed out and it says "connect to the internet or contact your carrier". You said This means you are out of luck UNLESS you have a Pixel 1, which I have, and you mentioned that can be bypassed. How do I bypass this please?

Do you have a Verizon model? Does it say anything under the greyed out toggle? If you have a Pixel 1 that's not on the latest version of Android, you can try the workaround linked in the description. Generally speaking, if you spoke with your carrier and they can't do anything about it, you're out of luck.

I stopped the extreme addiction in 2016 of flashing ROMs ...it was so bad I was flashing at work walking to back ....2 or 3 ROMs a day. I'm not kidding. Hahahah. Here I am now with pixel 4 xl I bought used and I thought I was done when I stopped with Android 8 or 9..things just got good enough then. The inner itch is returning now. Honestly I have a v20 995s Verizon that I tried to root other night. No dice. I must have lost my touch. Lmao. Also note 9 snapdragon but clearly won't allow unlocked boot. So pixel 4 xl I might. So easy. Thanks for your videos. I used to flash from cyanogenmod hahah. Now lineage. I might check it out. I'm just not sure the benefit now other than better or worse security depending on what you flash.

I've now tried this on two pixel 2s. Both had the option for OEM unlocking, I activated it, but when I rebooted I got no red text with fastboot, and 'fastboot flashing unlock' failed and printed 'waiting for any device'. 'fastboot devices' does give me my serial number, so the phone seems to be detected and talking to the tools.
@markbifferos2765
@markbifferos2765 Год назад
I feel a bit silly now. I was plugging the phone into my keyboard port, and missed the message from the kernel about the USB port having insufficient power for the configuration. So for some reason the 'devices' command worked, but not the unlock operation. This happened even thought the phone was fully charged. Once I plugged my phone into the motherboard port direct everything worked correctly. However: I got no red text about fastboot being available as I've seen in countless demos of this. The unlock still worked.

OEM stands for Original Equipment Manufacturer, it refers to the coding or drivers of all the individual components of the device, camera/microphone/screen etc that enable them to work with the phone and OS as a whole. The carrier will not be able to unlock this for you.
@MaowDroid
@MaowDroid 3 года назад
Yeah essentially the manufacturer; but here's the thing, T-Mobile units that I've seen are able to enable OEM unlocking after paying off their device payments, so I suppose they would collaborate to find out if that's the case? Although I must say I've never heard back from someone who has finally paid off their phone; but the disabled message is different to the ones you'll see on Verizon units.

I cant do anything. or l wait or l need to restart. 2- Phone call. Making phone calls sometimes the person can't hear me, sometimes l can't hear the person. 3 Recording Videos. Opening the camera and press the buttom to record, The phone just don't do that, the counter numbers does not do anything 00:00 and after pressing ``pause`` it start`s recording but then the phone start to froze. But now the final! When l run the Hard Reset. The phone works fine. But just for a day or 2. I think this is not a physical issue. Can you help me, l would aprecciate a lot.

@MaowDroid
@MaowDroid 4 года назад
I've had a friend's Pixel 1 do the exact same thing. After a reset it works fine for a little while then goes back to being the same way. I'd probably unlock the bootloader and try a different ROM to see if it could be just something up with stock Android, although that happened when the phone was running Oreo too. I've read that this Pixel has hardware issues, either revolving around the camera, bluetooth or sound. The battery replacement may have helped with the camera issue, as it did with the Nexus 6P.

@@Andy99silva1 I'd probably just try LineageOS, a very well known and established custom ROM. They have officially maintained versions for the Pixel here: download.lineageos.org/sailfish They have installation instructions available on their site, but pretty much flash/sideload the ROM via TWRP or LineageOS Recovery and that's it! You will have to install a Google Apps package separately, after the ROM (before rebooting). opengapps.org/ Get the ARM64, Android 10.0, pico (smaller arrangement of Google Apps) package. If this doesn't work, you may have to use your S7 for a bit :(

Hi Piero! The additional work I'm probably referring to is to install the Google USB drivers instead of using the LeMobile drivers that Windows Update installs for you: developer.android.com/studio/run/win-usb However, the issue with your Pixel not being detected is the more important issue, since the driver won't do much if your computer does not detect your phone. You've tried different USB cables (A USB A to C cable is preferred) in addition with using a Mac and PC? So currently your computer does not detect your Pixel in the bootloader? Does it detect it when you boot into Android and chnage the USB mode to File Transfer mode? Or even if you enable USB debugging?
@pierofiorio5983
@pierofiorio5983 4 года назад
@@MaowDroid Thanks for the quick answer! My computer does not detect my Pixel in the bootloader, even when I boot into Android and change the USB mode to File Transfer mode and even enabling the USB debugging. The thing is, I can't actually change the USB mode anymore when I plug my phone, but only select the "Default USB configuration" in Developer Options --> Networking --> USB Default configuration... (but even though it doesn't change the final result). I have tried with different cables and even with different computers. The curious thing is that my Pixel charges when it's plugged to the computer, but it won't be recognized as a device. Yesterday I tried the same things with the beta version of Android 11 (previously I had tried with Android 10). I want to downgrade my Pixel to Android 9, hoping that in that way I'll have Service again.

If you can enable OEM unlock you might have a chance if it is software related, but if you haven't done anything to it, chances are that it is a hardware issue. :(

Did you happen to buy it second hand, or if its a Verizon or a model from another carrier that likes to lock the bootloaders?
@morphinedreams9906

Yes it is Verizon

Verizon locks their bootloaders unfortunately :( so far all exploits used to unlock them have been patched.

It won't even matter if you pay it off, their bootloaders are permanently locked. :(

You have enabled OEM unlock right? I'd also refrain from using min ADB & fastboot as it's quite out of late (last time I saw it).

@@MaowDroid any idea on why it's like that? Also, do you know what carriers it happens with?
@MaowDroid
@MaowDroid 5 лет назад
It generally happens with Verizon and a certian UK carrier. If it's second hand, the previous owner may have activated with a carrier mentioned above. It's just generally carrier policy, as bad as it may be. :(

What's the best way to back up app and data without root installed?
@MaowDroid
@MaowDroid 3 года назад
Hi Andrew, I haven't used ADB backup in a long time, but that could help for sure. However, backing up app data is not always easy when you're not rooted unfortunately. You'll just have to see if each app has an export or 'cloud' save option.

So OEM Unlock is disabled for you? The workaround only works for the Pixel 1 (and recently, it seems that it hasn't been working for some), so with any other device you're out of luck.
