Not sure I follow. However you may want to try a tool called WugFresh Nexus Root Toolkit. The server is down at the moment. You may want to try to re-flashing 5.1, it has a normal mode and a soft-brick mode.

Hi all,
Same here, but my bootloader is unlocked. I'm not able to flash anything with the tool kits. It seems like it can't be recognized in fast boot mode. Any suggestion?
Thanks

When you have it cabled up to you PC via USB port, can you open Windows Explorer and view the file on your phone? If not you have a driver issue.
In developer options in the settings, did you check "Allow OEM unlocking" ? If you didn't, you will not be able to unlock.

You do not need to unlock bootloader to flash stock images since that is what the tablet is originally designed to run. It's very simple to flash. Please try it.
I think it is not correct unfortunately fo me
Here:
https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images
has written:
4.If necessary, unlock the device's bootloader by running: fastboot oem unlock
The target device will show you a confirmation screen. (This erases all data on the target device.)

My Nexus 7-13 since MM works only correctly on my Windows 8&10 computers directly after wiping cache partition first. Incuding working bootloader (fasboot) driver without exclamation mark.
But if still not working, I also added correct hardware id's of my N7-13 to the android_winusb.inf file of the Google USB Driver. Because Google forgot to add them themselves.
My adjusted driver with explaining texts. Check if your N7-13 has same hardware id's, because late manufacturwd N7-13 (with preloaded LP not JB) have other Emmc chip and perhaps also other hardware id's: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B_LknrYiQE02c2NzbGludW9BdkE

No, for Eroot your phone must be in normal mode, turned on, USB Debugging ticked, Unknown Sources ticked.
Yes Settings were correct
I tried again but nothing changed

I have the same problem, but is still running Win8.

I Tried:

Unlock OEM is not allow (in setting). And I can't unlock bootloader
I dot no my friend but, ota today ? New ota ?
Or it this your first boot on new tablet?
Anyway good luck, wait for pro advice , maybe with PC/cable.

My advice: Allow OEM unlocking the bootloader in the Setting

I need to find an OTA update on flash recovery. But I can not find it ((
are you using the new unlock command.?
you may also want to update the sdk or whatever adb/fastboot package you use.

you were saying that pixel c would not unlock and i was asking if you are using the new unlock command. the pixel c uses the nexus 6p unlock
command. not the old one.
it is no longer "fastboot oem unlock"
it is now for pixel c "fastboot flashing unlock"
you need to update your fastboot/adb package you use in case the one you are using does not recognize the new commands.

Did you try:
fastboot flashing unlock
Since you only relocked, you unlikely toggled "OEM unlock"?!
If it fails, I think you are SOL. Maybe someone with a proper solution will chime in. Otherwise, you have to RMA your device...

Hey... Go into recovery and perform a factory reset.
Reboot bootloader and flash stock firmware. You could flash both slots to be sure your device is completely clean.
I wrote a how-to for someone having another issue. You.can follow this:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=71849370&postcount=28
When you are finished with flashing, reboot to be sure your system boot properly and your phone works as it should...
From here you can reboot into bootloader and issue:
fastboot flashing lock
If It was me I'd leave it unlocked though... Or at least OEM unlock enabled and ADB debugging ON. Since Google tend to release messed up OTA, you can always unlock the bootloader if needed.
But if you wish you can also disable the OEM unlock.
Good luck...

Hey...
You boot into bootloader when the Device is powered off
Just like in your video: with power + volume down
You can see infos regarding:
Bootloader
Radio
S/N
DRAM
Boot-slot=
Etc...
This is the bootloader :good:
From here, unzip the google image you have downloaded, open the folder and from here run the flash-all script. Let your device reboot. Power it down, boot into bootloader again with power + volume down. Change active slot as I described in the link I gave you previously. Run the same flash-all again... Done!
Just for safety, remove your Google account before you continue. You'll add it again later...
Good luck...

Hey... Flash both slots... Just to be sure both are clean and nothing problematic remains on your device before locking your bootloader!
It could brick installing an OTA or whatever. Better restart 100% clean. :good:

Just flash the flash-all, relock and call it a day. Then you'll be fully stock and locked. I would however recommend rebooting once before locking to make sure its all good.

Hey man I have the same problem you can try calling Google support they can send you a replacement if you still have a warranty
my warranty has expired so I'm on my own
So I recently got my hand on a pixel 2 xl without the operating system.
I know this is an issue happened to some devices and the best way is to send it back to Google for a replacement.
However neither do I have the box and receive with me nor I am living in the official launch area. So there is no easy way for a replacement from Google. (I can't even post question at there official pixel user forum)
Therefore I really would love to know if I can indeed install the official ROM with tool like this one? https://forum.xda-developers.com/pixel-2-xl/development/tool-tool-one-driversunlocktwrpfactory-t3730226
And hopefully won't wasted a good device.

If you have the stock recovery and can boot into it you can adb sideload the most recent ota zip.

You can get the bootloader lock status simply by booting into the bootloader. Locked or unlocked? You don't "think" it has a working recovery is not good enough to help you. If it does have a stable recovery, you can flash the OTA. If it does not and the bootloader is locked you are S.O.L. and the phone is dead. Follow this video and let us know.

If you can hold down volume and hit power to get into bootloader and choose Recovery, you can fix this phone.
Go here: read instructions at top. You will be booting to bootloader, then to recovery, then choose Apply Update from ADB.
Then give adb OTA command as described. Don't skip or modify any step.

Locked bootloader wont let me use the script.
If your bootloader is locked with no way to unlock it, and with no working recovery, you're screwed. The device needs to be sent to Google to fix, which is rather problematic when the device is in a country where it wasn't sold.

Which is exactly why it should never be in the locked position...

Did you try? I used it with no 0S installed so oem unlock couldnt have been engaged.
My pixel 2 xl got real hard brick, and I need some method to restore.
I tried LG UP with download mode, (Connect USB with volume +), It is impossible cause i could not find tot or kdz firmware for Pixel 2 XL.
Any help? T^T,,,,,
And also can you suggest me where can i buy pixel 2 xl's motherboard/logic board?
Contact Google if you have the packaging unless you bought it second hand. It's under warranty

Thank you for replying.
Everything got locked.. Bootloader locked of course, even OEM locked.
If i can boot into recovery, I can recover with OTA. and everything will be ok..
but OS has not installed, so It shows "Can't find valid operating system". (Status is same just like as Google's "NO OS on Pixel 2 XL" mistake)
I'm stupidest person in 2018. :crying::crying::crying:

Whatever you did doesn't make you stupid my friend. I've bricked 2 phones myself on my android learning experience. If you can get into recovery, you should be able to side load an OTA. Then again, I bet you already tried that.

I can get into fastboot, but oem locked, bootloader locked, so I can't do anything with fastboot. just reboot command works well.

Then you should at least try deuces recovery script. Who knows, it might work :good:
Or you can go to the proper people, aka google, stop doing whatever shady mess your doing and be careful next time.

You can load the factory image from Google regardless if you're still OEM locked or not.
It's a signed image from Google... Signed images are accepted by the phone always.
The point of unlocking is to use unsigned images from developers other than google.

No. Even google said if user want to flash factory images, whatever it is stock & signed, user should unlock OEM and even bootloader. (Reference : https://developers.google.com/android/images)
I did several times, it didn't work without it.
I sent LG, because i live in korea.
It will be fine.
Thanks!
