Hey Tom you will always have my support my friends. I have always watched you make great content and I have to say I really loved this video keep it up buddy!
Stuck with an unlocked pixel 7a bought outright wo carrier junk and cant do GOS because oem unlock is grey. Been hooked to wifi for 3 days now so it shouldnt be that or the updates
Developer Mode is on. Bought phone on Ebay a couple years ago and I turned on Developer Mode and it was greyed out and I can’t find any guides to force it on.
Yes I enabled Dev Mode by clicking build number. I believe it may have been a Verizon model because supposedly that model has OEM Unlock greyed out. I just bought a GSM Unlock phone for my ATT a couple years ago and I guess I got the wrong model for flashing different OSes.
@@OnarTheMage If the OEM Unlock button is greyed out, it is likely a network connection issue. Ensure that your phone is connected to Wi-Fi or mobile data for at least 72 hours, and that will automatically fix the OEM Unlock toggle. After 72 hours, restart your phone. If the option still doesn’t show up, contact the network carrier.
My windows 11 PC has problems detecting Pixel 6A on the web install page, so i had to lookup & install pixel drivers to be able to unlock the bootloader, this video helped: ua-cam.com/video/9Wjbte6nnTs/v-deo.html But the problem is now even after unlocking the bootloader & clicking on "Obtaining factory images - Download Release" it won't download at all. I'm stuck and when i restarted the phone, the phone just warned me that my device is more prone to attacks. I reenabled the developer options again, made sure OEM is unlocked and USB debugging is on. I tried downloading the release again after restarting the phone with volume button down and the issue still persists.

Easy-peezy. Worked great. Installed without a hitch on a pixel 8.
No. "Unlock bootloader" doesn't fucking work.

Nice video. 1) how to import app data from old phone/android and restore to GrapheneOS please
Hi. Not sure how you feel about WhatsApp, but if you HAD to install it on GrapheneOS, how would you lock it down so it wouldn't leak meta data?
Any advice for Canadians?
Canadians specifically? Y'all got some absurd regulations again or something?
only for pixels?
Yes
