Any way at all to unlock the bootloader of the Verizon Pixel XL?

[ShadowTechXTS]

Is there a way to flash the stock Google firmware and then unlock the bootloader that way?

If not I'll just have to wait until someone makes a depixel 8 for oreo

There is only one way, from now until the end of time, to unlock the bl of a Verizon Pixel. Sell it and buy a Google version.

This irks me too. Not like some of us have a choice on which version we can get. ****ing Google man they are doing the same bullshit Microsoft has been doing these past few years.

This was Verizon's decision.

This was Verizon's decision.

And it was Google's decision to bend over and take it from Verizon.

And it was your decision to get it from Verizon and not Google ;>

Not mine. Company plan is on the big V

However my wife is on Fi so I'll probably buy another from Google and swap with her. :good:

If you managed to get a Pixel with an older security update you would be able to. If you bought it NEW one, most likely it comes with the updated version.

I would suggest taking it back and buying it through the Google website.
