So after failing to unlock bootloader on a couple devices months ago, I gave up. This device has had no debugging done to it ever. I hadn't even unlocked developer options. Anyway I just noticed it getting hot and opened developer options to check running services and holy wtfffffff OEM unlocking is just open. I ran the IMEI and yeah it's a Verizon variant alright running pie with the latest update downloaded but not installed. Gonna cross my fingers and fully root it tonight.

Tl;Dr...you might wanna check your device again because i think mine just worked a miracle on itself.

Don't get too excited. I'll be surprised if your fastboot commands actually work. But hey, it's the P2XL, one never knows :cool:
