Do what everyone should be doing... use Rezo's tool to root and install CWM. Then use CWM to flash your ROM. Simple.

Boot your device on HBOOT, and select FASTBOOT and then connect with PC. (USB Debugging must be enabled)
Follow the instructions here to Flash ROM :

Thanks a lot bro.. I downloaded a new unlock_bootloader. Img file, and it worked just fine.
Actually I entered wrong serial number in zuk website while downloading the img file maybe because of that it didn't work at first
Hello,
I'm not new to flashing / rooting / modding or Nexus / Pixel scene.. But that is a first for me.
I've updated my Pixel 2 XL to the latest version and I wanted to try out the P preview.. The problem is that apparently I have an newer version of the bootloader.
Device version-bootloader is 'TMZ12bb'.
Update requires 'TMZ20f'.
So if anyone could upload the TMZ20f I would really appreciate it.
That error is usually because you didn't unlock critical.

I tought I do. I mean I could unlock the phone before.. now it says it's unlocked, and If I try to lock it it says it's locked. Device status is locked tho, at least thats what the bootloader says.
Btw when i've relocked the bootloader the phone finally booted up, so the phone is indeed working, but I can't unlock nor lock it, apperently it's both.

Device version-bootloader is 'TMZ12bb'.
Update requires 'TMZ20f'.
but when I do unlock comad (dose not matter if oem unlock, or unlock_critical it says failed cuz is unlocked.
It was all working fine (with unlocked bootloader via oem unlock command) until I've tried to flash the P. .then there was at first the wrong bootloader thing, and then I've just unlocked the unlocked bootloader again this time via the critical unlock, and the phone did not load the P it said the console thing.. and the phone didn't want to boot up, until I've flashed oem lock.. it boots up fine, but it's apperently locked and unlocked at the same time, lol. So I cant flash anything..But the phone does work, tho.
So I am basicially back to start, just can't do anything lol!

You should verify you have the latest version of the Android SDK Platform Tools from here.
Are you running via fastboot the following two commands (back to back)?:
Code:
fastboot flashing unlock
fastboot flashing unlock_critical
From there, proceeding with the instructions on flashing the Android P Dev Preview images (link)?

Once you have extracted the factory image, place all of the extracted contents in the platform-tools folder. Like in the pic, then open up the command prompt on the platform-tools folder :good:

I found out boot loader was re-locked and I need to unlock it again.
I have my IMEI and Serial, but I need my Product ID to get the code.
How can I get my Product ID?
If someone can get the Product ID it would be appreciated.
