[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] doctorm89:
Need help here!

Bought an XL via eBay. Found that it's been flashed anyhow. And I can't root/flash ROM or even unlock the bootloader.

Now below is the situation:

1. It's a Verizon, XL, 128GB.

2. It's locked. And OEM unlocking in developer options is GREY.

3. It's stuck in Android O (Opp3.170518.006).

4. dePixel8 doesn't work. Every time I entered the commands "adb shell /data/local/tmp/dePixel8", it ended up with an error.

5. Because of 1., I can't flash TWRP or any bootloader.

I've heard of so-called "FRP Unlock Tool". But it seemed only working on 7.1.2 below and is considered risky for 8.0.

Though 8.0_DP3 is 90% perfect for daily use, I still want to take a chance. But the question is HOW?:confused:
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] jhs39:
The only time you could unlock the bootloader on a Verizon Pixel XL was before the operating system updated to Android 7.1.1. Android 7.1.1 was patched so the dePixel8 exploit would no longer work and nobody has found a new way to unlock the bootloader on the Verizon models since then. If you want to downgrade from Android O I think your only option is to deregister your phone from the Android Beta Program. Eventually you will get an OTA that will downgrade your phone back to Nougat but it will also completely wipe your phone including the user data and stored files. You will be starting over from scratch and have to download your user apps again. Unless someone comes up with a new exploit you will not be able to unlock the bootloader or custom flash anything on that phone.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] Captain Hindsight:
If you wanted to unlock bootloader/flash roms/root etc... you should've come here first to check, then checked with the seller on ebay.

however, your options are:

1) put up with phone in stock (it's really not that bad - which is why development isn't into multiple pages of current roms)

2) sell it and get a google version rather than Verizon
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] beachinmoney:
I sold a phone on eBay unlocked Sprint LG G6. I was able to get it unlocked. My buyer made a couple phone calls and then the next day could not. Through research and speaking to multiple Verizon people we were told that each night it would reset the phone so that it no longer could be used on Verizon. Further researched I learned about the MSL code. First question to do this do you have to root the phone? 2nd question is how to do it step by step. And lastly what if any limitations should we be aware of.

I'm desperate because I just paid for my husbands 7 teeth to be pulled and now we need his upper dentures. If I get a charge back on this I can't. The customer loves the LG G6 but doesn't want to call every day to fix the problem, so please out of the kindness in your heart, if you can help, I really need it....:fingers-crossed::highfive:

Don't know if this helps but I read this, depending on the model phone, it's quite easy to use a Sprint PCS

phone on VZW if you can get the MSL from Sprint. Which is easy to do if you

still have, or know someone who has, a Sprint PCS account
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] Ken C:
In the past you could call sprint and tell them you needed the code for something and they'd give it to you. There's also a dialer code you can put in that'll give it to you. I just can't remember what it is it's been so long since I've needed that
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] beachinmoney:
Ken- I saw that too. Thank you btw, for being the only person out of 126 that commented. You at least reconfirmed what I thought. Please any one else???
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] beachinmoney:
Well, I found a way to get them completely unlocked for any carrier, both GSM or CDMA. Research helps.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] zakiwashi:
i would be internally grateful if someone could tell me how to extinguish, once and for all, the green flashing "network coverage" led. it just bothers me, makes me think i have a missed call or the device is trying somehow to speak to me through an array of monosyllabic words. it has to go.

p.s. please dont say "stick a bit of tape over it". i already weighed up the pros and cons for that option.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] kaluzu:
the LED will turn yellow in case you have something missed. it will turn red when you battery is under 5%.

so if it is green, you're good. you did not miss anything, and you are "covered" (network wise ;-))

cheers hicks, i think that is just what i am after. i would just rather it didn't flash at all until the phone has something important to tell me.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] kaluzu:
I personally like to know if my phone is on and can receive calls. In case the green light is off totally, it will be misleading to me.

that cab was near perfect. exactly what the doctor ordered. my green light is gone. not only that but i can assign different coloured leds to different missed calls, texts and so on. its even addressed my problem of sms and missed call reminders! one small gripe tho.. cant assign a blue led to the bluetooth.... there's no pleasing some people!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] WizRd:
Absolutely brilliant, this worked a charm! Especially no flashing lights or notifications during certain times, generally when I'm asleep!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Mikulec:
yes, that cab is brilliant, and the best thing is that the guy is still working on it and updating the versions.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] etnies:
yea that program works perfect!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] spider_j:
It does work really well at stopping the flashing light, but, unbfortunately, ther flashing light that I like - Bluetooth - can't be blue anymore! I set it the green LED, but because I am used to the green flashes all the time, I forgot to turn bluetooth off when I got to work this morning. My own stupidity, I suppose. If the writer can get the blue light working for that function, this will be an excellent program instead of a very good one.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Mikulec:
if you have a problem, try asking the guy that made this app. He is at modaco.com(nick: Phil_UK) or just search the download section ane u will find the cab and contacts there.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] PhilipL:
Hi

I'm the author.

If you are getting LED port cannot be opened it is likely in use by another program or it's being used on a device that isn't supported.

Have you installed it twice perhaps?

The program makes no permanent changes to your LEDs so to restore them back to the HTC default uninstall the program and do a soft reset, the best way to do this is press and hold power button and turn it completely off and then back on again. Providing you have no other programs on there trying to set them they will be back to normal.

Regards

Phil

Alright so I ordered this clear flexicase ages ago and it has arrived (finally). I wanted to do an unboxing and review. Let every (potential) buyer know my experience so I made this little video, my results and experiences may not be yours but overall the case feels good in the hand, any way. Here is the video:

Go ahead and like, comment, subscribe because I got more content, more cases and some comparisons. Also come back here and let me know everyone else's experiences and thoughts.

P.S. I unintentionally jacked [MENTION=6663552]DarkExistence[/MENTION]'s thread so he'll probably be in here purposely talking about off topic jargon to get back at me, it's cool cool:cool::cool:
[OnePlus 5 Accessories] BoiBundy:
Quick update on Spigen cases

So Spigen tweeted this pic, and said later on in July. I mean, we're already half way through but.. ok. But I can't even preorder this so there's that. I'll keep updating
[OnePlus 5 Accessories] biglilsteve:
I wish Spigen would release a hybrid case for OP5 like they did for the Nexus 6. A clear hard plastic back with solid color TPU edges. It was great because the case never discolored like these stupid clear TPU cases we get today.
[OnePlus 5 Accessories] BoiBundy:
I mean it's still early in the OnePlus 5 lifespan, that's why it's like tryna pull teeth to find a good case. Hopefully tho we see some good cases. I actually have that one you're talking about for the N6 it's a two part case, with the solid colored tpu and plastic that slides over it I accidentally snapped a piece of the plastic tryna take it off and now it doesn't fit properly
[OnePlus 5 Accessories] biglilsteve:
Oh yeah? That surprises me. I kept that case on my N6 for two years and it was solid. I guess you got unlucky.

But yeah I don't have much confidence in that case making its way to OP5 because it never was released for OP3. They only released a version with clear TPU edges which will still discolor.
[OnePlus 5 Accessories] DarkExistence:
SInce I was tagged, just wanted to say I had a great experience with my clear flexicase ;) . All ports lined up, alert slider slot is great, bottom ports are perfect.., as you can see in my thread here! Also received my matte black flexicase today and man, it has a soft touch feeling that is just so nice, a nice little rim around the back and a great rim around the camera!
[OnePlus 5 Accessories] BoiBundy:
Yo could you take a photo of the two side by side, cuz I can't find that black one and I wanna see how that clear flexicase is supposed to look
[OnePlus 5 Accessories] A Guy Called Revive:
I've got the Clear flexi case and my brother has one of the solid colour flexi cases. They are really solid case and can't go that wrong with it. Just got my Orzly wallet case and it seems like they are just using the flexi case as the holder in the wallet which is a great thing!
[OnePlus 5 Accessories] DarkExistence:
Hey man,

Yeah sure will do when I have both of them in hand again in a few days :)

I prefer the coloured flexicases atm, they feel great, have great camera protection and a really nice screen lip :)
