For anyone doing this with a pixel 9. I was ripping out what little hair i have left trying to do this because my amazon bought phone thats unlocked was locked in "device state". Go into settings in your phone, system, about and just tap it 7 times to unlock dev mode. inside of dev mode thers a toggle that unlocks device. Then go back to the website hes following and hit the first blue button to unlock bootloader. then on the phone hit the power button to confirm unlock. After all that then you can finally do what hes doing @2:36
Pixel phones have the best custom ROM support imo. even oneplus and xiaomi phones don't get as consistent support as Pixel phones do. that, plus the continued warranty after unlocking the bootloader and rooting the phones making using ROMs like grapheneOS a popular choice
@@ExplainingAndroid Mine had the green screen tint issue, also the occasional Overheating. The Camera was also underwhelming imo, it overprocessed too much and dunno, the pixel just wasn't the right phone for me. I also found the speakers quite bad compared to other phones i owned before. Performancewise i also expected more sadly. I sold it and moved to a Nothing Phone 2 Til now i like the nothing much more than the Pixel, even tough the nothing is more of a gimmick phone in several aspects

Thanks!
Big love my friend. I love your videos as you know. All the best to you & your Girlfriend. Kindest regards, Richard U.K
Hoping to snag a Pixel 8 Pro on Black Friday & throw GrapheneOS on it. Is it true GrapheneOS doesn't support NFC tap to pay?🤔
will this remove a carrier lock? my sister gave me a broken pixel 8a but its carrier locked
That's unlikely. You need to contact the carrier to remove an unlock like that
Anything for oneplus 12r?
Sadly, not from this ROM. Have you checked XDA, though?
@ExplainingAndroid will check it thank you
I literally just was talking about de-googling my life
Google Moment.
Buying A Google Device just to remove Google From iT. Nice. 😅
After i owned a Pixel 7 i NEVER would get a Pixel again
The Pixel Buds where also pretty much the worst modern in-ears i ever owned
@@Sharkwedge I've never used a pixel device.
