[Solved] Error while flashing factory images - Zip: unable to truncate file

Hey guys, I've Pixel 2 XL and I'm trying to flash the factory images on the phone using flash-all.bat. I had 8.1 earlier and was doing some tests with custom ROM and then wanted to start afresh. So I did these steps:
1. downloaded the factory image [taimen-opm1.171019.011-factory-2df1c1cb] from here.
2. Extracted it in a folder
3. Downloaded latest platform tools from here and extracted it to same folder
4. Opened command prompt and ran flash-all.bat
5. It flashed radio, bootloader and then while flashing system.img, it gave this error:
extracting system.img (1936 MB) to disk...W/ziparchive( 4084): Zip: unable to truncate file to 2030555488: File too large
Here is the full log:

Any clues? I tried running the command prompt as an Admin to no avail. I know I can flash all imgs manually (and it works without any problems) but why am I getting that error?
Edit:
This was occuring due to low space on C:\drive (it seems it extracts the system.img before sending it to phone). Thanks to @stevexyz0 for the solution!

Is the disk on your PC out of space? Looks like it's trying to unzip the image before sending it to the phone.

Man, you are awesome! :laugh::laugh::highfive::highfive:
I had the factory images on D:\ drive which had 70GB free; but the C:\ drive had only 1 GB. And I think as you rightly said, it extracts the system.img on PC and that too on C:\ drive (may be in Temp older)
I made the space on C:\ drive and it worked like a charm. Thanks once again!

A custom ROM sounds yummy!

Other than making sure you have enough space on your PC drives, we can't really help you. You'll need to ask your question in the HTC forums. Google devices don't use RUUs.

But i think this error is because of allocated partition in device [(htv 10) htv32]

Help, I need to revert to stock!

Hi, I recently changed to a Custom ROM (Resurrection Remix) and stupid me forgot to backup before unlocking the bootloader, meaning I don't have a stock image. Here's the whole thing:
Resurrection Remix is based on LOS, so I have Lineage recovery atm.
I don't have TWRP flashed, but even when I used fastboot boot twrp.img it booted into TWRP and kept flashing the TWRP logo you see when you boot into it. If you have a TWRP backup I can try and use, that would be great. When I try flashing the official factory image, it just flashes a few things, says it can't find the file 'userdata' and says it failed, here's what happens:

My Pixel XL is in bootloader mode and I do have an OS installed, so I still can access the phone.
Please help, thanks!

Lol. Why do you try to flash stock image using minimal ADB/Fastboot? Did you try following the Google way?
Basically: unzip the factory image and double click flash-all.bat script ?
Here is a proper how-to:
https://developers.google.com/android/images
Good luck...

Agree with @5.1's thoughts. Update to latest/greatest platform tools from Google Developers site...then ensure you have downloaded the proper Factory Image. Then flash per the instructions on the Google site.

So when you 'Factory Reset' your Pixel XL It didn't boot?
If, it booted go to Settings > System > About phone > Android version. What is the Android version date?

I had the same issue yesterday. Fixed it by downloading the latest SDK platform tools here https://developer.android.com/studio/releases/platform-tools and extracting all the files into the same folder as the factory image with the flash-all script.

The problem is "/usr/lib/android-sdk/platform-tools/mke2fs"
* Check that you have a mke2fs in that directory. If yes, install the latest platform-tools
* If you don't, install the full platform-tools (not the small pack containing only fastboot, adb, and a few other stuff...)
The fix from the other answer will work, but you shouldn't have the install platform-tools in every stock image you want to install...

I was having similar errors with my google Pixel C. Its stock .zip file has again another .zip file.I also extracted that .zip file and manually flashed each .img one by one and it did worked for me.

Please Help. unable to flash Factory Image for Pixel XL

Hi guys,
Please help me with my phone.
I have my pixel XL rooted and accidentally upgraded to android 10 and lost my root.
However, when i was in the process of trying to re-root the phone, i probably did something stupid and got my phone soft bricked with the phone turning into to a bootloop showing the Google sign and the screen on booting up.
I am able to enter the bootloader screen and tried to flash the Factory Stock image, from the old version such as 7.1.0 to the new version 10.0.0 but failed.
This is the message i got every time i flash the factory image.

You installed an Android 10 factory image, please DO NOT try installing an Android 7xx factory image.
If your bootloader is unlocked try this using this Guide:
- First, remove (uninstall) Minimal ADB from your computer.
- Second, download and install SDK Platform-tools r29.0.6 on your computer. There is a link in the guide: Prerequisites c.
- You are on Android 10 Factory Image (10.0.0 (QP1A.191005.007.A3, Dec 2019)) so just do # 9 in the guide to root/reroot.
Note: Check your bootloader and radio version.
Why? You tried to flash an Android 7xx factory image and it look like the Android 7xx bootloader and radio replaced the Android 10 bootloader and radio.
If your bootloader and radio are not:
- bootloader-marlin-8996-012001-1908071822.img
- radio-marlin-8996-130361-1905270421.img
Open a command prompt #1 in the guide and flash them:
Code:
fastboot flash bootloader bootloader-marlin-8996-012001-1908071822.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
fastboot flash radio radio-marlin-8996-130361-1905270421.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
