no more root - Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers

Hello, this morning I got a google pay notification that I can't make a payment.
I tried to follow the last tutorial to remove the root, but now I can no longer root my phone or even use google pay.
So I tried to flash my rom via fastboot (crosshatch-qq1a.200105.002), but I get the following error message:

Guide
Do #4 'keep data', then #9 to root.
Make sure you have the latest SDK platform-tools, there is a link in the guide.
Also, make sure the USB is not plugged in to a charging USB port.

Hi, thanks it was an adb version issue.
I had done a factory restore and attempted root without success.
I am trying to flash the factory image to test the root again.
The last factory version did not work, I put back the one I had and that worked.
Thank you
Edit : suddenly, I have a bootloop

There's also a thread in here about how to use Gpay with root. You can search for it.

Hi, I managed to install the system cleanly then root. I followed the new google pay tutorial and couldn't make it work. Does it work for you?

Hello it works with this tutorial not with others for me

I have used the following method (the OP only and not all of the Magisk module stuff) since the day it was posted. I have redone it many times when moving to A10 as well as when going to various ROMs on both a P3 and PX3. GPay has never once failed me since setting it up this way.

Pixel XL bricked, bootloader locked and recovery doesn't work.

Does anyone can help me?
My Pixel XL brick more than a week ago, and I couldn't. I was installing the 8.0.0 official image from the bootloader with fastboot (a "clean install"), apparently there was an error installing the recovery and I didn't realize, so I lock the recovery (with fastboot oem lock and Up Volume key). After that, I restarted the phone and now it doesn't start (it shows only a "Google" splash and it restarts again).
I can't use the recovery mode (to use adb sideload command), try enter to the recovery makes the phone start "bootlooping" too.
I seen another thread explaining my problem, but it has almost a year without activiy (I asked on it to the user if he could solve that this problem but it seems like he doesn't use xda anymore):
https://forum.xda-developers.com/pixel-xl/help/pixel-xl-soft-bricked-unlock-bootloader-t3540772
I live in Uruguay, so I can't RMA.
Summary:
- My phone is bricked.
- I can enter to bootloader, but it's locked.
- I can't enter to recovery mode.
- I can't RMA.

I assume that you have tried fastboot boot with the correct twrp image?
I understand you locked the bootloader, however, maybe the stock images didn't flash correctly to reset the "allow oem unlocking" in the developer options..
If that's the case, try unlocking the bootloader again with "fastboot flashing unlock".

I can't enable Bootloader Unlocking from the developer settings because the device is bricked.
@zades9 I have an idea. Try downloading an OTA image to 8.0 and flashing that from stock recovery if you can access it (twrp might be cool too idk). If it will not let you flash an ota because you're already on 8.... 8.1 is coming out soon lol Is your bootloader messed up somehow? Fastboot flashing unlock_critical unlocks the bootloader but I don't know much about it. Let me rephrase it allows the bootloader to be flashed over.
Yea I'd try:fastboot flashing unlock_critical
Is it possible to switch to the bootloader_b slot and reboot-bootloader... possibly flash the b slot?

For what I know, you can't flash anything if your bootloader is locked.

I know about 6 months ago in the Nexus 6p forum, someone created a zip that could be flashed in recovery to toggle bootloader unlock in developer settings. It might be worth looking for to see if there's some sort of adb shell script that you could possibly use to toggle that switch. So you didn't boot after flashing factory image before locking? Also be sure to be using the most up to date adb and fastboot tools as that can cause issue too. IDK, I wish you luck!

If I could flash something in recovery mode I could flash the stock rom with "adb sideload file.zip", so I would not need unlock bootoader.
And yeah, I didn't boot after locking oem again :/

Actually that's not true. You can flash factory ota updates on a locked bootlader from stock recovery, idk about twrp though.

I wasn't referring to flashing that zip file, but looking inside to see if it's an adb shell script, you have a booting phone with a working bootloader, the recovery is compromised. There has to be a way to get your phone fixed. Only when it's totally dead do you give up hope
Well, while we are grasping at straws, make sure your fastboot is the very latest version. The version I use is marked as
~$ fastboot --version
fastboot version -4022467
I would also give the November image a try.
Crap I bricked mine too! Was on rooted Stock with twrp. Did factory reset (to unroot), then relock bootloader (all done with Skipsoft Toolkit). Thought I'd be in the clear, but now it's just bootlooping a half second Google logo and then black. I can get into the bootloader but nothing else works, not recovery, nothing. Can't flash anything since bootloader is locked now. Tried adb commands like fastboot continue but nothing works... Any updates or ideas on this!?? Device is bricked! I bought mine new on Craigslist so may have some trouble with RMA.... Yikes!
Please let this be a lesson to people to stop locking their bootloader's, or know what the heck they are doing before they do. I'm tired of reading about this across all forums. Whoever is explaining the steps to unlock the bootloader, need to give explicit knowledge on what to do and not do. I honestly wish I could be of more help, but it's a pain to get sorted on devices with regular partitions, so on this device I have no clue. It would be great if you could somehow force it to boot using the alternate slot
To OP, it looks like you're using slot A. Can you try switching to slot B and thing to boot?

Re-lock bootloader moto G5 plus Brazilian variant

With the help of @Nirbhay2 I managed to block my bootloader, however what I wanted to share here is that to block the bootloader of the Brazilian variant it is necessary the last ROM with january security patch POTTER_NPNS25.137-92-4. Here you will find the guide to block your Brazilian device.
Have minimal ADB
Have Motorola drivers installed on your PC
Have the january patch ROM stock: https://rsdsecure-cloud.motorola.co...ubsidy-DEFAULT_regulatory-DEFAULT_CFC.xml.zip
Extract the ROM to any folder and paste the minimal ADB along with the extracted ROM.
Open a command prompt in the folder and with the device in fastboot mode make a flash of the entire ROM stock on your device, to facilitate copying all the commands at once and paste at the command prompt and it will install automatic to your ROM , then do the same with the commands to re-block the bootloader and at the end of this process your device will be started with bootloader locked.
Commands to re-lock bootloader, do this after the full ROM flash
fastboot oem lock
fastboot oem lock
fastboot flash oem oem.img
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.0
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.1
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.2
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.3
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.4
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot oem lock
Command link for flash ROM stock

friend, you need to use this ROM that I made available on the link, if you have a moto G5 plus brazilian you can get the lock, but use this link ROM.

I tried the same thing.
I had TWRP and SuperSu on my phone a few days back. But weirdly, I lost network connectivity and after a botched attempt at installing V4A, the audio died as well. Even the camera and the flash had stopped working. More weirdly, the Root Checker app I had now showed me that root access was not properly installed.
SInce my phone was on the November patch (25-137-92), I found the stock ROM of it online and flashed it with the Moto G5 Plus ToolKit.
Now all the issues I've had are fixed. Everything works perfectly. TWRP has been removed along with SuperSu.
But the bootloader still shows me that software status is modified. The warning on boot-up which tells that the device has been unlocked is still there.
I don't know if it's related but I've got WiFi speed issues now, apps won't download quickly or is it my damn internet?
The bootloader IS locked, though. That I can say confidently because the bootloader unlock option in developer options is now not selected.

No slot to boot / error booting boot.img

I have the Pixel 3 xl Unlocked from google.
I was in the Android 10 Q beta and wanted to leave. The Opt-out Android beta site was not working.
I went to flash the newest public release myself off googles firmware website.
I have flashed many android phone from android 6 and up including this pixel 3 xl I am having issues with.
I have had such a hard time the last 4 days getting it to boot I completely wiped my computer and reinstalled a fresh new windows 10 pro.
I re downloaded every. Android Studios , all the SDK files, adb and fastboot, Android 9.0, 9.1, Q beta.
I put everything in the correct location or at least the same place I had everything before where it all worked.
everytime I Flash-all I get the same message / error.

try this https://forum.xda-developers.com/pixel-3-xl/how-to/guide-progress-available-t3876849
That guide was perfect! Thank you!! My pixel 3 xl was up and running in about 15mins or so. The green tea I got to drink at the end was tasty too.

Stuck on G after running flash-all.bat

Downloaded the most recent and correct firmware for the 3a XL. I unzipped it and ran flash-all.bat.
It has been stuck on G forever. I have tried to then run flash-all.bat from the August firmware and Android 10 with the same result, stuck on G.
Any help appreciated.

Is it failing to flash? Do I do flash-all.bat in fastboot?

You don't use the flash-all.bat in fastboot. You simply run the bat file (or equivalent) on your computer that you have downloaded the files to and hooked your phone up to. The directions are listed here: https://developers.google.com/android/images
That being said, it does appear to be failing for some reason. Triple check that you have downloaded the correct version for your phone and also check the SHA-256 checksum to ensure the file is not corrupted. Make sure you are on the latest Android SDK Platform Tools as well.

I had the same issue with a Pixel 3 some time ago and the resolution was to use the latest Android SDK Platform Tools.

Can't flash bonito-sp1a.211105.002 ( 12.0.0 (SP1A.211105.002, Nov 2021) ) - "Not enough space"

So I'm having the weirdest issue right now and it's driving me crazy.
I have a Pixel 3a XL. All good. It prompted me about updates for a while and now I had some time to do it.
I grabbed the (title) rom file from Google's site, extracted it and changed "flash-all" so it would not wipe storage. (It's the -w switch).
Like I've done a 100 times already. Nothing fancy, nothing new.
I also removed all images from DCIM and my recordings, etc. So there was like a ton of space on the device when I started.
And yet... I run the script and I get this:

I am without a clue and I would really need my device.
Please help?
OS is Windows 11, ADB drivers are from the Google USB package (and fastboot commands go out as you can see so that should be fine).
Not sure what else could be amiss.
Okay, another "self-solved mistery".
I've had the latest platform-tools in my PATH, yet something must have messed it up.
So I ran "flash-all.bat" (while removing -w of course) and then once it gets stuck with "not enough space", I simply run the .exe file directly from the new platform-tools folder, with "update ....zip" and that worked.
Man, every update, something gives me a heart attack.
