Received my Pixel 2 XL and was hit with the "No OS installed" issue that was going around. Contacted Google and I can send it in for replacement, but double-checking to see if anyone was able to conquer this issue.
To clarify, Android is not installed, bootloader is locked, can't get into recovery. Would need to have a way to unlock the bootloader without having to boot the OS to check that stupid "Allow OEM Unlock" option.
I think I had this issue tonight, while opening my brand new phone.
I was not able to enable oem unlock because I did not add my Google account.
Once I added my Google account j was able to get into developer mode and toggle oem unlock

How can you add a google account when there's no firmware installed ?
Since no os was loaded from factory I believe this is impossible. The initial factory loading of the os is needed to flash anything. If you get a phone which has no image its doa and needs to be returned.

My only suggestion, if you can get into recovery, try to sideload an update and use one of the OTA images. Outside of that, send it back for a new phone.

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.

Did you have OEM Unlocking checked in Developer options before it happened? If yes you can flash factory images
If you have the stock recovery and can boot into it you can adb sideload the most recent ota zip.

Thanks for the answering guys, however I think it is one of the machine that Google ships with a OS in it... so I don't think OEM unlocking is enabled nor the recovery is working.

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.

I am in this exact same situation. Did you ever figure it out? Or did anyone figure it out?

Just use deuce script to flash the factory image guys. That's what I did when I got the no os message. Mines started when I ignorantly thought I had to relock bootloader before flashing stock.

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.

You may have to call Google. I think that some versions sold/purchased in the EU have a 6 month waiting period before they can get an unlocking code ?

If it originally came from EE it is locked, but EE can unlock it. Did you factory reset it? That also was a bug and the reset cleared it.

Just to be clear, being SIM unlocked and bootloader unlocked are two completely different things. Are you sure the advertising for it being "unlocked" wasn't referring to the SIM status?

I looked for the cid of the phone and it appears that the phone isn't from Verizon. And the seller also told me that he bought the phone from Google store
It's likely the previous owner tried to unlock the bootloader and failed. By the looks of things the only current way to fix it is RMA to Google.

What version of android is it currently on?
After the factory reset, did you set the phone up at all, or just go to settings to try and enable it?
Set the phone up, connect it to WiFi and let it update system apps. You dont have to set the phone up completely, but let it connect to the internet and update.
Once thats done reboot it and skip thru any setup then go to settings and enable dev options and see if it is toggle-able.
Also make sure you are using the latest adb/fastboot.

I've purchased a 2nd hand Pixel 2 XL 128GB, Checked with IMEI and found it is a GOOGLE varient and useing it.
But my "OEM UNLOCKING" option is greyed out i'm currently on jun 5 patch. Tried several methods to unlock but OEM unlock toggle is not enabling.
1. Tried basic method, 2. Tried with factory reset, 3. Tried factory reset without sim and proceeded with no setup,
All these method gave no results. Consulted google but they require Order ID which is not possible to get at this point.
Anyone has any ideas which I missed. I really got this phone for all the customization possibilities and camera.

I thought the consensus was there was no way of knowing by just checking the IMEI. I could be wrong though.
Did you try another sim card?
Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using XDA-Developers Legacy app
Try booting into bootloader mode. It should specify what variant it is, and at least show some serial numbers. Contact Google and ask them if they can check for you as well.
If it's a non-Verizon, definitively, you can try flashing the latest factory image from Google using fastboot without your SIM inserted.
Mine was greyed out too until I connected to WiFi, then rebooted. Then I could toggle. Freaked me out too because I bought it off of Swappa. That I was duped for s second.

Pixel 2 xl OEM allow bootloader unlockewd
Hey really anyone..I have been able to duplicate twice each time a little different... I will continue to test and see if I can find a straight forward example that will yield a quick consistent result...The problem is now when I do a adb reboot booloader to actually unlock it still says not allowed when I was looking at the beauty of the toggle flipped on in dev optoins prior to having to reboot to bootloader ...its not wanting to stick ...soooo....wondering if there is a way to stay in the adb session without the adb reboot bootloader command to get to fastboot...or have some sorta multi user attack at this..can one be connected to the phone through the network adb option and fastboot at same time...or is there a adb command to unlock bootloader rather than fastboot...or can one make a script that could..I assume not I'd or at leat not without writing something above my abilities...but anyways I'm on current as of today for the pixel 2 xl verizon...by total mistake...I forgot the kill the dev slider on auto update system and it was to late...so this is achievable on current firmware. but I can read above where ppl have actually got the toggle off and freaked out too...but Ive done it 3 or 4 times now inside of 30 minutes but cant figure out how to issue the unlock command while its off or iff its impossible...so may not have anything here yet but man it sure looks pretty...I have a video of it and more Im making now to try and help someone crack this already...lol
still at it..
so far it appears to follow toggle wifi..flip over to dev...back to wifi...to dev...so forth and you catch it on...if you toggle the wifi on.. then off....then out and into dev oem option ..the wifi on and off few times then in and out of dev oem option then all the sudden I just am about to hit out of dev again when I notice its flippable......flip it on then confirm...but thats where Im stumped...it on is all I know pretty as can be after confirmation...hmmmm

I can not OEM unlock my Pixel 2 XL anymore. It is running a custom ROM that is not being updated anymore. In the developer settings, "OEM unlocking" is gray, and it says "Connect to the Internet or contact your carrier". The phone is connected to the internet and the internet is working flawlessly. This is NOT a Verizon version and there already IS a custom ROM on it, so it's been unlocked in the past.
I have tried to factory reset numerous times, and the option still did not become available.

Is it grayed out in the on or off position? Which is not uncommon on custom roms.
Do you have access to the the ROM if you need to reinstall it?
I would backup everything you can using twrp make a full and then also make sure you have boot.img backed up then try flashing factory image or whatever ROM you want to move to if you have an issue just switch back if it will take at all

So you unlocked it and flashed a custom ROM and then reinstalled the stock recovery and locked it like that for Android pay? Maybe the custom ROM was based off of a Verizon install so you phone thinks it's a Verizon phone now. You may be out of luck.

Verizon Pixels are not unlockable, and no dev ia going to waste time working on a build based on an unlockable device...so this scenario is unlikely.

So I just got my Google pixel 3 XL straight from Google. First thing I wanted to do was root my phone. I've tried everything from restarting device and updating my phone to the latest updated ( I was told that it needs to update before OEM unlock is enabled) but still it's greyed out. Does anyone know what's going on ? I spent a lot of money to finally get an unlocked version to be able to root it.
I'm using At&t as my network.
If anyone has any input, I'd appreciate it. Thank you.
