VERIZON UNLOCKED BOOTLOADER ONLY.

Yes you can unlock these things as long as they have never hit the network on Verizon )... EVER... (with a different CARRIER sim) I watched guy at Best Buy do it with a PIXEL and Pixel I guess the true issue is, you never know how or when they would be started especially on a refurb --- etc... Good Luck on that one...

First thread ever but the support scarce for VZW users (Specifically)and ROMs are scarce in generally. WE ARE SCARED TO DEATH to get the bootloader relocked... I've been flashing since the originally G1 and usually just keep my mouth shut stay humble and learn from every thread. I can't really find a lot of info on the VZW version and really the fear of locking the bootloader after trying so hard to get an nde64x ver on 7.1.0 to unlock was quite the endeavor in itself. I just wanted to pass along some info. Ask questions. If your an expert I'm sure this is pointless, but I just answered all of this for a friend that just switched to the Evil Red.

1. YOU CAN Flash the google updates (Not the ota but full system img using the flash all.bat)

DOWNLOAD THE FACTORY IMAGE NOT THE OTA (Google --- Factory IMG, Marlin)

- Download which ever from 7.1.0 to 8.1.0 unzip (I use 7zip but your windows programs can do the same

- Install your Fastboot/Adb and drop the EXTRACTED in your platform tools folder ... NOT the whole folder... but the items within the folder, into Platform tools (Should be 6 items including the flash all.bat) IT WILL NOT RELOCK YOUR BOOTLOADER BUT WILL WIPE YOUR DEVICE UNLESS YOU GO IN TO MOVE THE -W SCRIPT

2. 7.1.2 roms aren't working well with the A B Slot issues recovery... I was losing my mind trying to get things to flash and finally come to the conclusion... TWRP-3.1.1-0-fastboot-marling.img and .zip are the only recovery I can install to get roms to flash... If I Fastboot or flash the -1 img (twrp 3.1.1-1) or the 3.2.1-0-marlin.img I have to flash back to stock to get roms flasheable again.

- Working TWRP Nougat twrp-3.1.1-0

Flash Away At that point... If you get stuck like me and install 3.1.1-1 or the Other 3.2.1-0 I had to return to stock because of the A-B partition issues and get back to 3.1.1.0 to flash roms and Kernels.

3. Oreo 8.1.0 works with the flash-all bat (Google FACTORY image). The Oreo version will NOT relock your bootloader!!!

- TWRP works on 3.2.1-0.

- Magisk 14.5 and 14.6 work on Oreo...

- Super Su SR5 works with SU Hide 1.09

- Sound mods are eluding me on Oreo but Weta 9 Pixel is working with MANUAL MOVES--- Use at your own risk...

Right now I am on a VZW device running Carbon (LOS Based) with a Modded Google Cam (GCMOD cam )Viper4Andriod working, Franco Kernel --- ((A Lot harder than I thought on LOS to get some of the normal things working))

Ask questions if you want I'll answer what I can. Or I'll ask question of someone else to try to get an answer... Happy flashing...

So if I have a VZW pixl XL on 8.0.0 that HAS been used on vzw then Im out of luck is what Im gathering?
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] NepoRood:
Most likely, if you didn't unlock the bootloader with depixel8, back on 7.1

Sunshine team has no plans to work on unlocking newer versions, although, jcase said if someone could get temp root, he would provide an unlock...

So we're screwed. ?
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Bryanx86:
So can you not flash.all.bat 7.1 image and unlock bootloader if it's vzw pixel XL?
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] TonikJDK:
No you can't, because you can't flash until after you are unlocked.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Mikkey81:
I returned mine to Google and sweet talked my way into the one I have now. Still Verizon, but it was rolled back to 7.1.0.... Well and blue (my original was black). I'm not sure I could've kept the phone without actually being able to flash roms/kernels/themes. No matter who you are or what you do, the developers around android building are just remarkable at finding and fixing those little stutters and issues that drive us all nuts as well as adding those little goodies that make them fun and unique.

This was actually an argument I was having with the gentleman at Best Buy telling me the phones are all the same with the Pixel 2 a month or so ago. After a bit of discussion he also said I could immediately unlock these devices even on Verizon. I called him out and he proved it, but HAD to use an AT&T sim as the start up. Once VZW is booted past the 7.1.0 version, that it is unlockable... its over... unless someone else can find another unlocking method to downgrade without OEM unlock or a bootloader unlock method I don't know what to say. Personally I would've rolled back to the 6p or gone to the 2 and had the guy at Best Buy help me out with a sim.

This thread is so noob... Makes me cringe.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Mikkey81:
Come on man... Gotta help the cause... Everyone wants options and themes... Thats why we dont have IPhones.

Verizon users dont stand a chance at catching up or learning assuming they ever had a Pixel xl on NDE63P If they want to unlock, they need to start backing up to the 6P.... which is actually still a comparable device to newer phones at a couple years old.... and then they cant even go to the store to set it up... LOL. Sooooooo many posts from Verizon Users asking about whether they can update stock or via Google images and noone answers, well, mostly because their in the wrong thread.

And yes I realize I answered the last question asked, in the original post. I still have a little patience in my old age...

NO you can not flash down to 7.1.0 because you cant run the Google img through Fastboot, without being unlocked and there is NOWAY currently to unlock, past the original build version... I believe the last unlockable was NDE63X (dont quote me on that) Sorry guys. You CAN HOWEVER flashall.bat if you are ALREADY unlocked and you will stay bootloader unlocked.

[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Days Tech:
Alright everyone. I have seen threads about changing DPI with ADB and other stuff. That is quite complex, so I now present you a way simpler way of doing this. No external applications needed.

First, let's go through the process. First step is to go to the Developer Settings. From there you will need to find an option called 'Smallest width'. This changes your DPI to a number of your choice and you can also change it from 320 up to even more than 1000. I didn't try anything over 1000 so I don't know how much it will do.

Yes, I know you refuse to believe that it is there. But you need to get rid of your belief that it is hidden. It is there right under the animation scale setting stuff.
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Days Tech:
Also it is slightly different to the ones with those complex methods but it does the job.
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Days Tech:
Also here is a screenshot from my Honor 8:
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] ah0y:
Put the default value: 420 I'm your post. That way if anyone wants to change it back they can.
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Days Tech:
The default is 360.
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] ah0y:
That's right. Mine probably change when I adjusted the Font Size under Display settings.

Does your mobile provider support WiFi calling? (As far as I know EE does support) Do you have a recent CSC of that provider? Tkkg1994's CSC selection may help with finding your CSC. I'm not sure which port you have, but make sure you have the right CSC for the right port I.e. s8 port vs note 8 port.

[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] Whiskeyomega:
I picked up my UK V30 H930 yesterday all fine and saw that LG have unlocked the bootloader on my model so I went ahead and tried it along with trying the alpha TWRP build

So I thought id write about what went wrong and how I recovered from it.

I made the mistake of letting the phone auto update to 10v software verion before I did this. As I had 10f on before when I bought the phone.

I went to load in all the software needed to unlock the bootloader and proceeded to do so but in my haste of the user data being wiped taking a longer then I thought it would I unpluged the phone to try "fastboot flash unlock unlock.bin" again . No such luck already unlocked. It booted back in fine so I thought everything was ok but that was the moment I thought could have caused my entire night to be ruined.

I thought with the bootloader saying it was unlock it was now fine to flash TWRP on now so went to do that and discovered it would no longer boot into the rom anymore coming up with the LG V30 Logo and just staying put. Thought it must be my 10v software version messing it up. Ok ill try to flash a 10f stock kdz. After about an hour or so of 'Finding my feet' with the phones boot methods for download mode, Fastboot and recovery I found that twrp was being strange with mounting the phone tried otherways eventually got the phone talking to the pc by using uppercut with LGUP and having the phone in download mode and the port com channel in device mananger set to com 41. After about 4 tries of flashing KDZ's to the phone it would just come with a "erasing" circle and proceed to get stuck on boot logo again so I messed about with .dlls and tried to other methods. Still nothing.

Now I tried LG Bridge's "Update error recovery" and I was actually talking to the phone for the 1st time so i let it do its thing which took well over an hour to download the kdz file. "Fine just work please". it got to the updating stage at 5% and froze and the phone being in download mode hadnt done a thing. I tried again but still nothing. Eventually now at 6am and having been up all night I went to give up but I manged to get it on to fastboot mode and by chance came across "flashing lock_bootloader" tried and it and it locked tthe bootloader back up (this thing of LG saying it cannot be undone must be rubbish?) now before I tried anything I rebooted the phone . IT BOOTED! onto the fresh 10v KDZ i had installed on it but before anything I wanted to see if it would now run with a unlocked bootloader on its own with no TWRP installed. It works! Now i just need a method of rooting but im now ready at least.

Hope this helps anyone with simular troubles.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] SGCMarkus:
Also had some trouble yesterday after trying out some Magisk modules.

On reboot it sometimes got stuck in the LG V30 screen, and sometimes even the bootanimation came up, but it didnt finish the boot lol

Only installed and adblock btw, and tried the Xposed module. Uninstalled that again btw. Now only using Adblock.

Phone also seems to need Power + Vol- to force shutdown for me, not only Power like other phones. Also didnt manage to find a way to boot into recovery when the phone is off, only found a way to get into the factory reset screen ?

sadly i dont have a working sdcard currently (my 3 year old 128GB one is read only for some reason, atleast changes dont get applied), so ill wait for a new one to mess around more ^^

Also working on a LOS14.1 build atm (it compiled, but didnt adapt all parts of thr device tree yet, and no idea if i have all vendor files lol)
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] Whiskeyomega:
Ive just managed to get 10f on so ill retry flashing twrp now.

Are you sure your sdcard doesnt have a little read/write switch on it . Im sure i remember so of them used to have one.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] SGCMarkus:
nope, doesnt have one. Neither windows nor Linux fail at writing on it, or when deleting files, but as soon as I re-insert the SDCard all changes are reversed. Formatting doesnt work anymore, unknown error. Tried that in Windows, Linux and in the Phone (Androids formatting crashed, TWRPs produced an error after it timed out)
