I took it to ubreakifix and they told me that this is indeed a known issue with pixel xl's that they all suffered from a faulty motherboard and that is indeed the cause here. Said he thought there was actually a class action about it so I'll have to look into it. Really pisses me off that Google...

I haven't. I see that Google has all the ota's on their site. Is there a specific one that i might want to try? The same one? Go back a few? Will i even be able to sideload if my phone is fully stock? Edit: sideload adb successfully but no change. I loaded the 6-5 ota which was what i already had.

I have always been about to get into the boot loader. Actually i can get into recovery again as well. Seems if i let it sit for a while it'll go to recovery again. Maybe heat related.

well, i'm not sure if it makes a difference, but now for some reason i can't get into recovery mode again. just goes into the boot loop. It also goes into the boot loop as soon as I plug the phone in to charge.

Hoping for some help or alternatives to fix my fiancee's Pixel XL. Last night the phone just kept flashing the 'G' logo on for 10 seconds, off for 10 seconds. She said the phone was close to dying before it happened, and I imagine it probably ended up draining the battery afterwards with the...

Yes I think I had restored following the factory reset at first. But then when I reset again, I don't think I did, which is probably why I've been ok for a few weeks now.

Well I might've figured it out myself. I noticed auto-delete messages was off. I cleared out my messages and magically it seems to be running smoothly for now. There must be some kind of bug once you hit a message limit or something...

Wow I'm about ready to toss this phone now. I keep getting an issue where messages starts to lag like crazy, and then CONSTANTLY force closes. I'm talking like every few words I type, it force closes. I'll open it back up, type a few more words, the FC again. The worst part is, I've already...

Would you mind elaborating further on this process? I'm on Lollipop, latest update. You're saying I can pay someone to provide me a sim unlock code and all I have to do is enter it? Legal? Can it cause any issues to my phone? I don't care about my ATT warranty, phone is over a year old anyway.

I'm on full stock and need to unlock my phone for international use. I tried through ATT but apparently I can't since I'm under contract. I've never had to do this before, but I thought I remember reading this is, or can be, part of the S-off or root or something. Can this be done?

Few odd issues I'm having with my phone. Updated a few weeks ago to Lollipop, full stock. Did a factory reset after receiving the upgrade. Everything was pretty good. Not sure if another update went out a few days ago? I noticed some icons changed and I think a few more changes in camera and...

Seems to be a bug with the messaging app on 5.0 update. Fully stock. I text my gf probably a hundred times a day, and now all of a sudden I can't text her as it keeps sending me a message, 'error invalid number' and it displays her number with an extra 1 added 11(xxx)xxx-xxxx. I checked her...

same here. only since 5.0 update

Yeah like I said I've backed up my stuff to my computer, but that's a pretty clunky way to have to restore stuff then. Also, my phone is acting up big time now and I'm at work for the rest of the day. So I was hoping there was a way I could just reset and go. Like I said I know I am also backed...
