Flash Android 6 via Flashtool (select all wipe options) and follow on youtube "bypass frp xperia android 6" when you bypass frp, then flash Android 7.1.1 via Flashtool then register with new email. OEM Unlock on developer settings for future protection.

HELP!!!!!! Locked bootloader after flashing a kernel and it doesn't want to boot

Hi guys
As you probably know by reading the title, i completely messed up. I was on the stock google factory image and decided to flash a custom kernel. I enabled usb debuging and oem unlock. after having unlocked the bootloader, I installed the twrp boot img and then flashed the kernel. All was well when i stupidly decided to lock my bootloader. Things crashed and now when i try to boot into my phone, the google logo appears and 1 seconds later crashes keeps doing it until i turn my phone off. My bootloader is locked and i think usb debuging and oem unlock are also disabled.
The same thing happens when i try to go to the recovery, it just crashes.
Any help would be greatly appreciated guys. thank you !!

I feel bad for you. However, you bricked your Pixel.
As I mentioned yesterday, contact Google for an RMA replacement.

I don't believe so since you're not the original owner. However, it doesn't hurt to try.
If you bl locked the phone w modified software ur boned. I believe that RMA availability is transferrable from owner to owner, however, I also believe that they will refuse to RMA a phone which technically broke because AVB is doing its job properly. You can try but I'd say your chances are slim. Sorry mate. Also future reference: if you don't have any reason in particular to relock your phone, just don't. You'll save yourself the hassle of having to do it again and it wiping the phone everytime any software thing goes wrong or anytime u want to upgrade custom ROM or kernel or anything of the sort. This goes for any phone not just those with android verified boot.

Yes they will know but they have proprietary software to forcefully unlock/reformat the phone properly if they so choose to actually accept the phone

If you are flashing the latest version of Oreo you don't need to oem unlock. What version of Android were you running before you bricked it?

Bypass Lockscreen

My friend uses Honor 6X. He is on stock Nougat ROM. He is no more now. Is there a way to bypass his phone's Lockscreen without losing data so we could get to know some details we need?
*And his phone's bootloader is Locked.
*No way to enable developer options.
*Can i boot into fastboot mode and using adb commands can i boot via TWRP temporarily?
Since the bootloader is locked, the only thing he can do is factory reset.
Don't forget to remember which Google account he used, as it will be required after the factory reset

8.1 Oreo Factory Image

For anyone who hasn't been able to sideload the update or wants the factory images, it is now on the Razer Development Portal
thanks! i've been waiting for this to update
So does this mean that maybe custom Rom/Kernel development may start?
Anyone know if it's safe to update to global 8.1 straight from the Three UK branded 7.1.1 version?

Download the Global Rom and unzip it. Make sure ADB and fastboot drivers are installed on your PC. Open command prompt with Administrator Privileges. Change directory to where you unzipped your rom, type ADB reboot bootloader, run the command flash_all.
Edit: make sure you have usb debugging enabled on your phone

Love this phone but Substratum/Andromeda still doesn't work on 8.1, still a conflict with Razer theme engine? Any way to disable Razer theme engine under root and enable substratum?!?! Or any other way short of flashing LOS, which I tried and failed to do?

Very true but you just need to relock bootloader to make a RMA claim through Razer. Had to do that with my first phone. Surprised this phone doesn't have a tamper flag on it.

Question Hard brick

Hello good to all,
It turns out that I have the device with a hard brick and I can't find a solution to repair it, I've been looking for a similar thread, but nothing. It won't let me in, it's not fastboot, not in recovery or anything, and if I turn it on normally I get: The current image have been destroyed...
How I got to this situation, was after rooting the device with a tutorial here, which worked perfectly for me. It was later when I had the great idea of closing the bootloader with the rooted device, and since then it gives me this error.

1)Just go to service center , if phone is in warranty , they will just flash the device with STOCK ROM using msm tool (best )
2)however they might even replace motherboard for no reason but that will also fix the device (time taking)
3) last option is to use paid msm flashing services costs from 5to 10$ USD , you can find them by Google search (risky)
I had about the same problems, my GT Neo 2 does not load fastboot further. The cyclical startup process is repeated.
Stupidly, I understand now, I decided to wipe data in TWRP recovery
This is what it looks like - youtube
I tried to install custom recovery from this topic, all stages passed without problems, but at the end after rebooting fastboot loops
Have you solved this problem, if so, in what way?
udp
installing this method
but root I couldn't get here
I tried to unlock twrp using the magic installation, but the problem described above appeared
I think I have the same problem as others. Realme appears and restarts continuously. It does not go into fastboot because the boot loader is blocked. What can I do?
