I waked up this morning and checked time on my Pixel XL, about 30 mins after I checked my phone which has been powered off. I tried to power on, it screens off right after the google logo showed on, and loop.

Then I entered bootloader, it shows:

BL: N/A
Baseband: N/A
Product/Variant: marlin-ROW-PVT
Serial Number: HT69Hxxxxxxx
CPU: MSM8996SG-AB 0x10001
UFS: 128GB Toshiba
DRAM: 4096MB Samsung LPDDR4
Boot-slot: b
Console: DISABLED
Secure Boot: PRODUCTION
Device is UNLOCKED

My Pixel XL is now on Dec 2016 7.1.1 (NMF26O). I tried to flash bootloader from NMF26O and NMF26U, it failed, showing:

target reported max download size of 536870912 bytes
sending 'bootloader' (32728 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.735s]
writing 'bootloader'...
FAILED (remote: Verify bootloader image failed on production device.)
finished. total time: 1.338s

It can't boot into recovery mode. I tried to temporarily boot into twrp-pixel-installer-marlin-3.0.2-0-RC1 it returns:

>fastboot boot twrp-pixel-installer-marlin-3.0.2-0-RC1.zip

creating boot image - 9072640 bytes
downloading 'boot.img'...
OKAY [ 0.240s]
booting...
FAILED (status read failed (Too many links))
finished. total time: 0.653s

Does anyone here know how to fix this without wipe my data? I have super super important data on my phone.

-------edit--------

I asked a friend who is using Pixel to show me his bootloader info. I noticed his boot-slot is a, mine is b.

Any idea that I can switch the boot-slot back to a? Do you think switching back will work?
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] aholeinthewor1d:
So you can at least get into bootloader right? Does "fastboot devices" show your serial?
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] ghovik:
Yes I can boot into bootloader, 'fastboot devices' shows my device correctly. But any 'fastboot flash' or 'fastboot root' returns failure. for example, I tried to flash boot.img, returns:

>fastboot flash boot boot.img
target reported max download size of 536870912 bytes

Try putting it on the charger for a while. I'm not saying your battery is dead, but it sure can't hurt.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] ghovik:
Thanks. I have charged it for about 30mins. You remind me of another strange thing, when it is powered off and connected to the charger, the charging battery logo shows up for 1 sec and screens off. It loops for few times and the phone starts booting itself. So I put it into bootloader mode now while charging.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] muzzy996:
When you noted that you were trying to boot to TWRP via commands my first expectation was to see a fastboot command like this instead:

fastboot boot twrp-3.0.2-0-RC1-fastboot-marlin.img

I'm not sure why you are trying to boot the flashable ZIP instead.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] TonikJDK:
^^^ What he said.

Too many links usually means a bad filename or bad path to the file.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] ghovik:
Oh this is my fault. Now I tried 'fastboot flash twrp-3.0.2-0-RC1-fastboot-marlin.img', it worked but, first the google logo shows up and immediately screens off, then root loop as the same as I boot my device.

Fastboot set_active _a
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] ghovik:
It seems this is not a correct command because I tried this commend and it returns the usage help.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] TonikJDK:
It's right. You either typed it wrong or have an older version of fastboot, or are using minimal fastboot.

From mine two seconds ago:

C:\Users\xxx\Desktop\SDK Tools\platform-tools>fastboot set_active _a

[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] ghovik:
I think you are right. I googled this command, all the websites said the same command as you told. It might be my fastboot version problem. May I ask what version are you using?
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] cam30era:
Try updating your ADB and fastboot. From here > https://plus.google.com/+ElliottHughes/posts/U3B6H3Sejvv

FWIW: the link that I posted above allows one to download just ADB and fastboot directly from Google. Tiny little package.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] ghovik:
I've installed Minimal Adb and Fastboot just now. I tried the command it returns:

>fastboot set_active _a
error: Could not get suffixes.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] TonikJDK:
My link is the link on the page he directs you to. Saves a click. :)

---------- Post added at 11:34 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:31 AM ----------

Dang it, stop using Minimal. It is old...from like March of last year. Our Pixels are different...they have dual partitions, they need the newer fastboot and adb.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] cam30era:
Cool. Thanks.

---------- Post added at 11:38 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:35 AM ----------

Well, all I see is the SDK package (which is a lot smaller than the full Studio). Unless I'm missing something, I don't see any link to just the ADB and fastboot....
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] ghovik:
Thanks [MENTION=3209971]cam30era[/MENTION] and [MENTION=4998526]TonikJDK[/MENTION]. Yes indeed both links are the same.

I used new ADB and fastboot, it executes my command as follows:

>fastboot set_active _a
Setting current slot to 'a'...
OKAY [ 0.249s]
finished. total time: 0.253s

However on my phone it stays on slot b. I reboot bootloader by 'fastboot reboot bootloader' leads the boot loop again. I have to reboot bootloader manually but it is still on slot b.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] Mike02z:
Are you on the latest SDK? I have seen similar messages on my devises and it has always been due to an older SDK. Just a guess.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] ghovik:
Thanks Mike, I think I have the latest SDK. It seems not the SDK version problem for me.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] TonikJDK:
Never thought to ask...your bootloader is unlocked right? If it is, I think you have just had a major internal memory failure and need to exchange it.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] ghovik:
I am sorry but what does it by 'bootloader unlock'? Is it the same thing with device OEM unlock?

I really have very important data on my phone so for now I have to try everything I can to fix it. Thank you very much once again for concerning my issue! if you come up with anything could help fix it, please let me know.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] TonikJDK:
Yes, the slider in Developer options that sets OEM Unlock AND you would have used fastboot to execute : fastboot oem unlock If you didn't do both, then your phone is not unlocked and you can't flash that phone.

Before this happened, when you started your phone did you get a warning message "Your device software can't be checked for corruption....." on a black screen. If you never saw that, you are not unlocked.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] BDogg718:
He's Unlocked. You can tell by his first post. What DATA exactly are you trying to make sure you dont lose?
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] ghovik:
Yes, of course I unlocked, and I can see the warning message as well.

The data I don't want to lose is about some chat history and pictures in an app called WECHAT. These data could be helpful on court to prove someone's crime, that is why it is so important. I didn't do anything to my phone, it just bricked at this extremely wrong time.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] TonikJDK:
He needs to un-encrypt to get to the data. Boot to TWRP and then an ADB pull?
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] ghovik:
I thought about ADB pull. Problem is I can't boot to TWRP as well. 'fastboot boot twrp-3.0.2-0-RC1-fastboot-marlin.img' succeed, but my phone then starts boot loop.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] BDogg718:
Damn man...that MIGHT be a hardware issue then. If it says successful but still loops...not good. MAYBE try flashing BL of build ID ur on. Then reboot bootloader and try flash twrp again.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] toknitup420:
Edited
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] ghovik:
Thanks man. You mean there is a specific BL I need to flash? If so how can I know which one is that?

I am not sure if you have read previous posts, I tried several BLs what all failed. Flashing twrp also leads to a boot loop.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] BDogg718:
Yea, you should flash the BL for whatever build ID your on. If you have already tried that with no success...IDK man. Might be hard bricked. Sry to say. And it just didnt this all on it own? You werent flashing anything to it?

Your only action maybe to flash factory .imgs from Google. Im not sure even if you remove the "-w" if it will keep that apps DATA. Might be a chance you HAVE to take to get your phone back working.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] ghovik:
OK I will try all the BLs for Pixel XL. Yes, it did powered off by itself, my last action to the phone was just see what time it was.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] cam30era:
No need to try them all. In OP you said you were on NMF26O, so just flash that one. It might work since you are finally on up to date ADB and fastboot.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] trjv:
I had bricked a stock pixel xl by simply trying to flash the Google provided flash-all.sh. It would go through and flash the bootloader and modem but each time it would go to flash system it kept failing telling me something like "unknown partition systemb". For the life of me I could not figure out what the issue was or what systemb was since trying things like "fastboot flash systemb system.img" would return errors. Turns out that I needed to open Android Studio and update fastboot to the absolute newest possible version (despite my current version being what others here said was the correct version). Afterwards I was able to flash to every individual partition, both slots. Try your fastboot commands like this "fastboot flash boot_a boot.img" or "fastboot flash boot_b boot.img", I've found that there are _a and _b versions for every single partition and each can be flashed to independently. After updating fastboot the flash-all.sh was able to complete successfully. Not sure if any of this helps but figured it might be relevant.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] ghovik:
Yesterday my roommates read a post about a similar problem with me. It said the author just ran out the battery and re-charge, then the phone booted up normally.

I thought to give it a try although it sounds like a lucky incident. By doing that my Pixel XL is DEAD completely. It can neither boot nor enter fastboot.

I have a removable charger with an LED, which indicates that the connected device is charging, so I presume my battery is working.

Well, it seems what I can do now is pray.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] aholeinthewor1d:
Have you tried the stock charger since this happened?
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] ghovik:
Yes. I charged it with both stock charger and the removable one.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] noidea24:
As mentioned before, it seems your best bet will be to do a full factory flash.

Download the 26O factory image, and VERIFY THE MD5.

Uninstall any previous ADB and fastboot drivers. download this SDK directly from Google here, use it to obtain latest official ADB and fastboot drivers.

Open up the factory image you downloaded, locate the "flash-all.bat" (flash-all.sh for Linux) and right click and edit. If the edit command isn't available, then right click and open with notepad. Find the -w parameter, delete it, and save it.

Open a terminal/command prompt, verify your device is communicating with "fastboot devices", and if it is, run the flash-all.bat

Hey guys. Just having similar problem here. Any update of solving it?

I've just had the device for one day...

---------- Post added at 03:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:32 PM ----------

My Pixel is same as showing BL: N/A; Baseband: N/A at the boot.

Recovery is not able to enter, which processed rolling to staring "GOOGLE" and then blacking and repeat.

I think it indicated that Recovery is broken or disappear, which I don't know the reason. Because I was using the device in normal, and then it became like that suddenly.

It is my fourth Google phone. Such problem has never happened before. Is it any possibility of hardware issues?
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] eyeoflucifer:
Hey guys, any update on this? This issue just happened with me today
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] pentafive:
No luck here. I ended up having to claim it on warranty. Lost any data not backed up.

Hi Macon,

Thanks for sharing instructions. I have one question here: what if I cannot guarantee the connection by communicating with "fastboot devices" as per the last step you mentioned? (Cuz' my bricked device has similar but not same problem.) Thanks again...

[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] jaxenroth:
Download the latest factory image, notepad++ edit the wipe command so it doesn't wipe your data and than flash the factory image. remove the -w from flash-all.bat or flash-all.sh and run that

Fixed.

This is a soc issue it is corrupt and cannot properly partition the device therefore you cannot flash an image because there is no partition to flash to . The only fix is try reflashing the qualcomm chip but good luck at that hope this helps
