My Dad's Pixel 2 suddenly got bricked. He isn't a tech savvy so he didn't tinker with any settings. I've been frustrated for a whole month after trying all sorts of fastboot commands, including lock_critical and unlock_critical. Device state is locked, and I can't do anything about it. The PC recognizes that the phone is in fastboot, but I can't use fastboot commands to unlock the bootloader. I've also tried the online flashing method but it doesn't work. Is the phone hard bricked now guys? Please help. Thank you very much.

With a locked bootloader you're pretty much bricked mate, if you have a working recovery you could try side loading an ota image to see if it will take and boot you onto the other slot. Other than that it's an RMA from what I've read online re this problem as you cant swap boot slots via fastboot while locked.

I can't help because I don't know how Xyboard works. You should put (Xyboard/Xoom2) in the title of your OP, then you will attract the right help. Good luck.
Thanks..
oh.. thanks..
just wish somebody have same case like me that solved..
Have u tried running any commands in adb like fastboot reboot
Mod or Die
Someone help me out here... I know you can root devices without unlocking the bootloader but I thought, in order to flash, you need an unlocked bootloader.

What do you get with the command: fastboot devices?
Why is GooManager not working for you? Did you install the open recovery script through it?
Did it ask for su permission when you first ran it?
Are you sure you are unlocked and in the bootloader menu when running the first fastboot command?

Hello my XDA Developers I hope that you can help me with my phone, last week I bought a Droid Ultra fromo Ebay, and I received the phone but I think that it was a demo phone with a demo software from the store because the phone can not charge more than the 40%, and the app "VZW Demo"" is opened again and again doesnt matter how much I uninstall the app, I restore the phone from settings and doesnt work, I been tried to root the phone for flashing a ROOM but I cant, I been tried to return to stock the phone form this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2580060 but im having troubles with the ADB and rebooting to the bootloader, seems like my pc doesnt recognize the phone (see images), and yes I have the USB debug enable, but with other phones my pc can recognize, the only way that my computer can recognize the droid ultra its from de recovery but from there I can not reboot to the bootloader, I downloaded the properly drivers and still nothing, I hope you guys cand help me, you are my last chance, sorry for my english its not the best im not from this country

will the phone boot into fastboot? with the phone off, vol down + pwr ?
I used method 2 manual flashing from the thread you linked to. It was not a developer phone, and the commands said they all failed, but the phone still returned to stock.

Been looking through the threads and seen some info around my problem just not 100% sure..
So I have successfully unlocked my bootloader
Flashed official fastboot rom 12.5.1.0 eea as I’m from uk with fastboot tools
now I am getting the phone boot to poco logo with unlock logo at top screen with unclocked padlock but just keeps rebooting to that.
I can still get to fastboot and official recovery
Any help would be appreciated

Follow Section 2 completely.
Format data in step 16 is important.

In twrp do I use the recovery rom?
Are you sure it's bootloop? It takes awhile to boot after unlocking bootloader because the process factory resets the device, so basically on the next boot the whole system / user apps have to be reinstalled. Give it 5min. or so.

Stuck on Fastboot mode after performing step 2 method 1 of johny's EDL repair guide here. After doing "open the ENG folder--open "0-update_image_EDL.bat"", the phone ends up in a boot loop dying on the green android screen and then boots into fastboot mode as seen here:

More background info:
Phone was a tencent version that was then bootloader unlocked and changed to WW firmware. Only read 64GB of storage so wanted to reflash proper firmware for 128GB storage. Ran through johnny's guide for the first time and everything went smoothly and phone booted and read 128GB. Only problem was battery was stuck at 100%. Once phone shut down from presumably 0% battery, it was plugged in and attempted to boot. Would be stuck in either a bootloop or I could get into fastboot. Once I was stuck in fastboot, decided to do johnny's guide again and it wouldn't get past step 2 into the OS that had the weird card with info on it. Now Im stuck on this fastboot mode. Trying to boot/start normally results in getting back to fastboot. Unplugging the cable shuts the phone down instantly.
Any help would be appreciated.
Anyone please, I have had the same issue here for two weeks now...
You need to replace another battery with a battery capacity
