[Google Pixel 6 Pro] rajalot:
Hey fam, hope you've been keeping well and safe.

I recently bought the Pixel 6 Pro (so happy with it!) and am currently in the process of rooting it.

It's a fairly simple process, and I've done it with all but I'm not sure what's going wrong at the initial unlocking the bootloader stage.

OEM Unlocking & USB Debugging is enabled - I've tried to deactivate/reactive it, used different ports etc. but to no avail.

It just won't unlock, and instead just gives me prompts of commands.

I've attached the screenshots.

What am I missing/doing wrong? Thanks!
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Alekos:
are you in fastboot when you are running these commands? boot into fastboot. type the command ' fastboot --version , what version does it output?

run fastboot devices command so your devices appears, then run the unlock command again. make sure you are you using latest platform-tools (not mininal adb etc). also reinstall the driver just in case. then

you can also just go to Android's Flash Tool to unlock the device:

Android Flash Tool

flash.android.com
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] rajalot:
Thankyou so much for your quick and really helpful reply!

So I've investigated further, and re-installed all the tools/as you mentioned above - still no avail.

There does seem to be some sort of an issue as the fastboot version command responds back with 'version unknown'.

The Android Flash Tool looks like the best solution (didn't even know it existed, so thanks for that!) but I'm unsure how to proceed with it in order to unlock the bootloader (from what I'm gathered you need to have an unlocked bootloader before using it?)

I'm assuming you deselect the 'lock bootloader' option so that the tool unlocks the bootloader and then doesn't relock it? I've attached a screenshot to just check as well.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Alekos:
yeah you need to have OEM Unlocking enabled to use Google's Flash Tool. if you don't need any data, just enable these options in the flash tool: Wipe and Force Flash Partitions. That will unlock the bootloader and wipe/reflash Android. Enabling the "lock bootloader" option will re-lock the bootloader but since you are rooting it, leave it unchecked.

But you should look into why Platform-Tools isn't working on your system. Here are instructions on how to set it up (make sure to remove all other platform-tools)

there's also Nexus Tools from Github (developed my a known tech journalist)
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] roirraW "edor" ehT:
@rajalot besides what @Alekos said, I always go straight to the source for the latest SDK Platform Tools every time I flash anything. Also, Get the Google USB Driver (this is for Windows). Note, a recent experience. I have a Samsung tablet and have the Samsung USB drivers installed. This driver worked perfectly fine for my Pixel 6 Pro too for the last two months, but for June the full factory image would error out trying to flash until I uninstalled Samsung's driver and went back to Google's. So if you have any other device USB drivers installed than Google's, you may have to uninstall those and install Google's.

But yeah, as @Alekos said, the site

Official Google Android Flash Tool

(OEM Unlocking needs to be toggled on - you may not have to manually unlock the bootloader - the "site" will do that on its own) will get you what you need too although if there's a conflicting driver, you would still have to solve that.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Nergal di Cuthah:
I'm going out on a limb but is this a Verizon p6p?
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] roirraW "edor" ehT:
I hope @rajalot updates us, although they said they did enable OEM Unlocking (and seem to be indicating that they have since re-disabled and re-enabled it, although that can be interpreted differently), which would usually indicate that they're not using a Verizon device. Weird, huh? I'm guessing the Platform Tools version is the culprit, but I'd like to hear back to confirm.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] SchWeinSAuG:
bump!

well i had exactly the same issue with new pixel 6a.

installed latest google driver , latest platform tools... no luck

Nexustools did the trick for me instantly

thanks @Alekos for this share!!

Hi friends, I'm new here , but I have been followed this forum for many years, so I considered to ask a question.

The problem that I'm facing right now is basically the company where I work use a Gmail based account for the corporative mails, so If you need to have the job's mail in you cellphone, using the Gmail app, you just need to add as a Google account (with its own domain of course) and it works, but several months ago they did a big change in the security of the accounts, now I bought a new phone and when I want to add the account the Google App try to redirect you to a web page (from the security company) inside the app, but I think for the nature of that web page the Google app can't open the page so I got stucked and without be able to add my google account, the message I receive is the following

Si I tried in several phones ( Xiaomi 12, Huawei P10, Samsung A32, Sone Z1 compact)and happens the same situation, is like the internal browser of the app misses a option to be able to open the webpage

Is there a way to tweet the app to fix the problem, or any another way to do it?

Thanks in advance

my nord ce 2 heat up very fast after updating the latest update available. i dont think it is normal. is it the cause by the recent update or the apps installed in my phone or the hardware? please, i need suggestion. thanks.
[OnePlus Nord CE 2] ko_hi:
After some struggling and some point out why drivers weren't built.

(Wifi and bt) i managed to get them working.

Turns out there was some dumb configs not enabled and wrong *driver* name* being built.

Apparently ONEPLUS didn't define

MTK_COMBO_BT=y in defconfig

Neither did the wifi driver being correctly named when built. It would get some info (of what build info reported) then name it after that.

Instead of wlan_drv_gem4m it was named wlan_axi_6877 so the kernel never wanted to start the driver due to wrong name. So it failed to load the driver because of that.

Now A.09 can be ran with a permissive kernel and WiFi and BT WORKING 😒

[General Questions and Answers] wr3zzz:
I bought the entry level OnePlus buds Nord because Dolby Atmos is prominently featured in the promo. It connects to my OnePlus 7Pro fine and the Dolby Atmos check on the phone is active. I don't notice anything different. So I connected the buds to Windows 11 PC and the Dolby Access app says the buds are not Dolby Atmos compatible.

It's a $40 bud so I don't expect anything special but what does the Dolby Atmos label even mean if Dolby's own app won't recognize it.

[Motorola Moto G100 / Edge S] yerm:
Just got this phone today so I could boot lineage to it. Everything was running alright till I tried to boot into recovery mode. I flashed my image after I unlocked the phone officially and now it's just stuck at the stock Motorola Logo.

Worried about a optential hard brick here because I can't copy ensure all my firmware partitions are consistent

It automatically writes to boot_b and I don't know if that'll be a issue

Here are all the files I have View attachment 5634375

[Motorola Moto G100 / Edge S] loulondono:
So, when doing this, the most important thing is having a way to revert to stock everything, far more so than backing up. This usually consists of a "fastboot ROM" of your stock software on the offchance something does tits up. Check development to see if one for your model number is available.

A issue I see immediately is you flashed the recovery using the flash boot command, when the instructions say temp boot using the boot command. Always stick to the instructions for that particular thing you're doing to the letter, otherwise you might get lucky or you'll get a weird oddity that is difficult to troubleshoot.

The instructions say to temp boot, use the copy partitions script to but it on both slots, and then install lineage. Given there is no mention of a recovery zip getting lineage recovery permanent is just done by flashing the ROM. So if you can I'd revert everything back to stock if that's a thing on this device, then do the steps again.
[Motorola Moto G100 / Edge S] yerm:
I figured I went wrong somewhere, mostly because I ran into this when trying to copy partitions:

debord:[yerm]:~/Documents$ adb sideload copy-partitions-20210323_1922.zip

adb: sideload connection failed: no devices/emulators found

adb: trying pre-KitKat sideload method...

adb: pre-KitKat sideload connection failed: no devices/emulators found

I am now worried I beat my system to death and now I can't revert any of my changes. Do You have a terminal command list to sort this out how is it something i have ot get done from the bootloader on my phone?

Also the model is a "XT2125-4" Which is a supported device according to this tutorial.

Are you trying to sideload whilst in bootloader ( start, barcodes ect) or have you gotten into recovery?

[Motorola Moto G100 / Edge S] loulondono:
Yh sideload only works when booted into recovery, and having selected sideload ( seems to be renamed to apply update on lineage recovery) so that's a bust. You need to get into recovery. Any luck on finding a way to revert to stock? If not I would try the boot .IMG command from the instructions and see if that gets you into the recovery

No Luck, also getting this now:

nice to hear, so the dimensions will fit pretty much the whole screen I guess? Because I bought the brando 1s, while the quality is good, the dimensions was a bit short, meaning there is about a 2mm gap on the vertical side.

[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] HelpOneplus6t:
Hello all,

I am trying to help my son fix some of his Oneplus 6t phones. Please bear with me as I am not the most tech savvy. He uses the phones for a business and I like to try to help out.

He has 5 Oneplus 6t devices, 3 are stuck in fastboot and 2 went into qualcomm crash dump errors. These issues happened when he tried to install a custom rom, Arrow OS.

I wanted to help him factory restore the phones so that we could try again. I downloaded the following:

1) Oneplus 6t USB drivers - https://oneplususbdrivers.com/oneplus-6t-usb-driver-download/

2) Qualcomm USB drivers - https://gsmusbdrivers.com/download/android-qualcomm-usb-driver/

3) A decrypted Oxygeon OS MSM download tool - https://www.thecustomdroid.com/oneplus-6-6t-unbrick-guide/

We ran the MSM tool as administrator and plugged in the phone with a black screen, while holding the up and down volume button. Only sometimes it was recognized / connected. When we clicked start in the MSM tool, I ran into a few potential issues.

1) Image files do not match device

2) Waiting for device (just keeps counting)

Also, often the device was not recognized, and we could not get it to work.

In the device manager, it does not show the correct device. It gives some error / device not recognized issue. I am not sure if this is related. I tried re-installing the drivers, as well as trying on a second computer. The cable we are using is able to detect non-corrupt Oneplus 6t devices fine, so I do not believe that is the issue. Also an important note, some of the devices may be T-mobile branded but I am not sure which, if any.

Does anyone know what are the next steps or things I can try? I would really like to get these devices working for him so he can continue with his business. Sadly I cannot afford to replace or rebuy the devices. I fear I am making a simple mistake somewhere but am not sure where.

Thanks for your help in advance.

Sadly I think I have to give up on this one :( I am not very tech savvy and really don't know what else I can do.
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] HelpOneplus6t:
I was able to fix one of the phones. I tried using fajita_41_J.50_210121 as my MSM recovery and it worked.

The fact that it worked implies to me my issue doesn't lie with the drivers, but rather which MSM file I am using, is this a good assumption?

If so, how can I figure out which files to use? I tried that same file on the 4 other phones, but would always get Sahara communication error.
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] FireRattus:
This is what I was trying to say, you probably have the Verizon version, you need to make absolutely sure the MSM recovery files you are using are for that phone model

I bought my phone as global but they sent me a unlocked Verizon model, I found out because I couldn't flash it with MSM tool until I used the Verizon versions files
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] HelpOneplus6t:
Hi,

I believe you are right, that makes sense.

I see that the 1 phone that was fixable is very slightly different than the other 4- it doesn't have an IMEI code on the back, so likely it was a different version or something.

Where do I find the right recovery files? I searched for Verizon Oneplus 6t MSM Download Tool but I don't see anything different.

Sorry for my incompetence, I appreciate your help :)
