What happened? Is the phone used? In this case, you have to return your pho e to the seller or ask him to provide you his login detail... Unfortunately, there's no other options...
If you bought it new and locked yourself out of your device, you can try to initiate an RMA.
I don't think there are "legal" ways to workaround your issue.
@Bobnav Have you tried this?

Just noticed a stuck pixel on my new OP3. Unfortunately their website says they can send a replacement only if the dead pixel is greater than 0.5mm or if there are more than 3 dead pixels. I'm currently trying to fix it with various apps but I've heard the success rate isn't great.
Does anyone have any experience with OP customer support?

The only experience I have is when I sent a ticket about a broken wall connector thing for my dash charger. They were very nice about the whole thing and are replacing it very soon. Everything was great and I can provide screenshots.

Sorry to hear it. But from my knowledge one dead pixel is not a defective screen.and they wont take it to fix. So you'll have to live with it or to buy a new lcd. Every manufacture has its own "dead" pixel policy and ALL of them cover only if you have >+1 dead pixel. Example laptop have only 1month dead pixel warranty if you buy that kind of warranty. After that laptop has to have more than 5 dead pixel to be considered defective ...

Hello all - I have just purchased a Pixel XL and am trying to decide if I should keep it or not. I have been spoiled with my Nexus 6p due to the official Magisk support. Was able to have full root and all the goodies that come with it and still pass safety checks to use android pay. Does anyone know if such a solution is in the works for the Pixel or is it an "is it what it is" at this point? Phone has been out for a while now and I dont see a whole lot of traction on the subject. (I could be missing something as I am new to this Phone.)
Thanks

I scoured XDA to find the Verizon pixel 2 XL forum and I'm not seeming to find it. So I thought I would make a Verizon bootloader unlock discussion thread. Has anybody heard any news on anyone working on a bootloader unlock for Verizon?
Here is a link to the LG development bootloader unlock supported device page. Let's all keep our eyes peeled on this to see if LG allows a BL unlock for the pixel 2 xl.

I'm just here to say good luck. You're gonna need it. Glad this is the device that is getting me off of big red

What happens when you enable Developer Options?
Is the Unlock button greyed out?

Doesn't matter. The bootloader is still locked despite that

I've not seen anyone talking about even starting to look for an exploit to unlock the BL.
@TCPDump this person was talking about something a little while back, not sure if any progress was made though.

Check the LG developer site. They unlock the bootloader's for LG 6 and numerous other phones. Since the 2 XL is LG. Doesn't hurt to check it out.
I think your best chance would be if jcase and beaups were working on it. Jcase has retired. I'm not saying it won't happen, but I think it very unlikely that we will ever see a VZW Pixel XL 2 with an unlocked bootloader.

Sorry but you're wrong. The original unlock for the Pixel XL was created by jcase and beaups. Remember, the original Pixel's were HTC hardware.

Good point.
Spoke to Beaups tonight and he and jcase aren't getting the phone and have no plans to unlock the bootloader. Sucks
There's already 2 other threads about this topic...

If you REALLY want an unlocked BL. Sell your VZW version and buy direct from Google.
Very VERY rarely do VZW BL's get cracked. Exceptions are Jcase usually but that's Moto/HTC.
Sorry to be yet another Debby Downer. But the VZW edition is not what you're looking for. If that's all you could get, then you're SOL and I wouldn't hold my breath. As someone who has been with VZW for almost a decade +. It's once in a blue moon when it does happen.
Can you achieve root without unlocking the BL or is that impossible?

If someone finds an exploit, yeah it's possible. Doubt anyone will be looking for one on the Verizon variant though.

There's still one month left for official support. It says no guaranteed security updates, telephone or online support after November 2018. https://support.google.com/nexus/answer/4457705?hl=en
After that, you may stick with any LineageOS based ROM.

Hello everyone,
Starting a new thread for all Aussie mates. Discuss anything from suggestions, fixes, news. I will start with just mentioning.
Optus is currently offering 7 day flex prepaid plan free for 7 days and because the Pixel 6 uses E-sim facility , you can literally have two sim cards on the phone ( one physical and one e-sim ) .
Regards.

I updated to A1 and things seem to be working fine. But I would want to update to A5 since the current mobile network quality is terrible compared to my Oneplus 5T, same SIMs (Optus and Telstra). Interesting that we didn't have Aus specific update before. Do you think that the process of updating A1 to A5 would be the same as from 037 to A1? I am rooted and don't want to lose data.
Ah, this is interesting, I did a factory reset and updated using the A1 build yesterday, not knowing that there was going to be an A5 Australian version!
Interestingly, since updating to the A1 version, I've definitely experienced my Telstra 5G signal being noticeably worse than before updating
Looking forward to A5 now!

I just sideloaded the A5 build over A1 using the factory image (modified flash-all.bat to not wipe data and disable verity and verification) and rooted again the usual way. Went without issue.

You guys think all these region specific builds has something to do with 5g and not 4g?

Great, new to ADB and all things pixel coming from Note. So I have root (only after bricking and fixing lol) but wondering if you can point in the direction where I might get some detailed instructions to do what you did, I think I get it but not 100% sure and with my track record it would end in tears. TIA.
