Well Hello there everyone.
My friend bought a Pixel off the streets (A.K.A Offerup App) He saw the post and called me about the post he saw and wanted to by it. I mention him about FRP, which he said he will check . He didnt relized that it just bypass with sideloader. We try to contact the sell but nothing. So head he gave it to play around with it and took me a 1 day 1/2 and BANG! I removed it with lock bootloader! 7.1.2 (NJH47D, Jul 2017)!:angel::silly::laugh:
Now i have the info& IDK what to do with it. If you have any questions ask. Very open to help out but I don't want to get ban or anything in the area.
P.S I have proof of it been lock and so on. ( I did not took a pic of the bootloader info but it was in 'slot_b' idk whats this but yeah) I believe this will work with verizon and OEM goolge pixel&XL
Edit: My brother has a Nexus 6P with 7.1.2 lock bootloader. I explain him that it can be done and he did not believe me. We bet some beers to show it can be done! Same concept different phone. I was multi-tasking and phone too longer than usual to get things in the right place. Check laptop date & Time.
Update: Check out Rootjunky and Phonelab Youtube& Twitter. The information was shared with them.
how did you do it?
Not sure if I am allow to post the information.
Why would you get banned? A lot of people are waiting for something like this; myself included. If you say you're able to do it, explain it clearly and with as much information as possible.

I believe that XDA rules don't permit that but since the thread hasn't been locked then perhaps I'm wrong. If it's free then post it. Thread will be cleaned if it violates rules.
But if he charges for it then he might as well just ban himself. No need to wait.

So you're telling me I can't get any donations for the solution?:crying::crying: I mean for my time? Beer? Steak?
I'm pretty sure XDA considers instructions to bypass FRP to be aiding phone thieves and people who buy stolen phones, which would not be in the best interests of the majority of the people in the XDA community. There are plenty of Internet pages and at least one apk that claim to help people bypass FRP. The fact that you don't see that stuff on XDA should probably tell you something.

No that is against forum rules. You may have a donate button in your avatar and a button link in your signature. People can donate to you if they want, but it is against forum rules to ask for donations up front for providing a service.

This doesn't make sense combined with your OP. You said you were messing around with a friend's phone and bam you got it and now don't know what to do with the info. A mod said put a donate link up but now you say it's not for free since you paid to learn the method? Were you messing around or did someone teach it to you? Either way you're not going to get paid for it here unless you put up a donate link and the method is verified by other users.

The pictures show absolutely nothing useful. This guy is completely full of it. Mods close this thread. It's nothing but clickbait.
Also, the pictures in op are actually for a Nexus 6P not Pixel XL. Mods should at least edit and move this thread to the appropriate place if closing the thread is not feasible.

Honestly no one wants to hear it from some jackass that TALKED SOOOOOOO MUCH **** ABOUT SOFTWARE ROOT ANYWAY. Follow the rules and search before posting useless information that has been already posted! No one cares that you just found this out and you really don't need to open a thread every time you find something new out. This isn't Twitter. This is why the Dinc2 community is CRAP. No one even wants to Dev for us because some of us are ungrateful jerks. People don't forget, and if I recall correctly let me show you how grateful you are.

go ahead and feel dumb, you should.
kingsway8605 "Sure they don't "advertise" it but they are having their cronies post all over here about some imaginary root. I refer you to my previous post about ignoring it. I would rather not continue to argue with you about something I am obviously right about and risk a mod banning me. When, or actually if, Alphrev releases root, I will admit you were right. But I can promise you that won't happen."
do us all a favor and keep your thoughts to yourself. obviously you type before you think, and I don't care if you said your sorry, you still wrongfully accused the very people who's software YOU are using. they shouldn't have even let you use it personally.

It took me a whole 3 minutes tops, because I know how to use the SEARCH button. and I can't SPAM a USELESS thread, this will be deleted once you waste a Mods time and they get around to it.
EDIT: oh, and if I can type faster than you can read, sorry.
its not worth argueing with him andybones,hes obviously an idiot who simply cant do a search before posting a crappy useless thread
I have to check the website. Curious if there is a way to block users who spam the forum. I actually hope a mod deletes it, nobody wants to hear your useless arguing. As for me creating useless threads, I think I have created 3 threads total so far, and one of them helped quite a few people with their alarm clock issues.
For now I am just going to manually ignore you guys. Type away at me, not even going to bother reading them. I will be the mature one.
Edit: wow, just checked my other thread and you argued with someone else in that thread. Do you actually do anything on this site besides argue with others because reading through your comment history it sure seems like all you do is argue, you are ignored for sure.

You can ignore me all you want. Truth of the matter is, I do help people. You annoy people. Clearly. I don't even need to justify myself. For how many days did you down talk alpharevX, and now use their product? I highly doubt you donated. and I'm not arguing, I'm responding, and my first post was blowing off a little steam because it's people like you who CRAP these threads up.. it's not wonder all the REAL devs left XDA. useless, ungrateful people like yourself. If you have a problem with my post, report it
Is this OTA dump kosher.
I may not be getting OTA in my location. So I went fishing and came across this.
http://www.androidpolice.com/2011/0...8-605-4-same-as-the-official-gingerbread-ota/
They claim it is the same as the OTA but since it can be RUU'ed will work on all phones, incl. those with modification to the ROM.
Has anybody tried this one? Also, since I have never gone the RUU route some additional instructions will be most welcome.

If you are not s off, just flash it. If it has been tampered with than the update should fail. It isn't todays ota though, it is the one from a few weeks ago.
Sent from my ADR6350 using Tapatalk
Thanks @kingsway8605. This is the only one I could find. About two weeks old. Any other URL's?
Presumably the flashing involved copying the file (with changed name) to SD card root. Remove the USB cable and then do <volume down> + <power>. I hope the follow up is pretty simple and straight forward. I do not have much Android experience.

I thought links to external sites for software\roms was against the rules, e.g. keep everything in one place. (However I can be completely wrong)
Im getting my touch on Monday and am super excited to see root, but having come from an Epic 4G (horrible community) plagued with people selling roms, closed threads and trolling..
I just dont want to see that happen here with this phone.
Perhaps the name *epic* is jinxed.
If I could request one thing, that would be to post a direct link here in the OP.

It is against the rules to link to a site where you are required to register to download. You don't for the ACS site, so it doesn't break any rules.

Shabby,
I will put my money where my mouth is, I really appreciate it. Im going to look for a donate link on your site. (couldn't find one, so I will click on some ads)
Like I said earlier, wasn't sure if it broke rules or not. I just appreciate all your devs work and do not want this to become another epic 4g.
dont go donating yet its a bad habit to start. if you wanna donate, t hen donate if your satisfied with teh final product
Do people usually create threads proclaiming they've achieved root BEFORE they've actually achieved a distributable root? Been refreshing the "GOT ROOT!" thread all day, and now following Shabby's quest in IRC. Kind of funny. Not trying to knock anyone, but damn they keep getting my hopes up!

Is this just a "something might be coming eventually" type post? Similar to how Samsung announces and even demos products, but never actually makes them available for purchase?
By the way, posting the same thing multipe times (as you've posted the above in at least 3 threads now) is against the rules. So is advertising a product....

Tell you what: If you stop breaking the XDA rules (posting this all over the place AND advertising in the wrong places) I'd consider ordering a couple of these.
Moderator: Can the XDA marketplace be used in this case?
Edit: Actually, after reviewing your posting history, perhaps it'd be better to NOT order something from you. Considering that you seem to think that a palm touchstone charger works with the verizion door (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=30542742&postcount=40), I'd be concerned that something you're selling wouldn't work at all.

XDA is not for personal selling. Don't make it ebay. I have seen you in a couple of threads posting this nonsense. What's the reason for giving us a review for a product that only you are selling.
Let's say we are happy with your product, but do you really think that anyone would send you money to buy it personally.
People like you-
Wow XDA FORUM, let's advertise our product and rip off some idiots. BUT WHO IS THE REAL IDIOT?
I leave the question unanswered and let's see who answers.

I am sure it is a hugely difficult task, and maybe with little financial reward as a result of the small amount of people who have Verizon and and M9, but is there any movement or update on this? I remember seeing when I first got it that it would take some time but would eventually happen.

You might be better served to just go the route every one else has and ship/drive to a dev with access. I wouldnt hedge my bets on getting software exploit going anytime soon. But my sentiment will ring the same with everyone else.... This phone is infinitely better with root

This.
Well worth it. With the incredibly successful sales of the M9 (not), I wouldn't hold my breath for devs to continue to focus on the M9, especially as it becomes the "old" handset when HTC releases its next flagship.
Why my post get deleted? I was offering free s off all htc models all android versions ! What's wrong with that ????
Maybe someone thought o no ... I can't have a alternative s off for free I lose my 25 bucks lol . Why not give the people a option! !!!

Still stands the same. You have to have java card\clip to s-off which then will allow root. Currently no software method\sunshine available, but as we all know, that could change tomorrow or never.

I offer free local s off service that I say AGAIN is free . also doesn't void warranty and I can do all htc models and android version
Neo has consolidated all users doing the same exact service in the Java card/clip thread.
That's why. You are on the thread there now. Perhaps you are in denial that there are many users already doing this and more in that thread? Even boot loader unlocks without warranty voiding?
So yes please...stop duplicating posts everywhere.
So I got a great deal from sprint about half off a S20u And I jumped thinking I'd be able to root it. it's already been 30 days and I'm going to return the device since I thought it would be able to be rooted. will a root ever be available. What device can I purchase from a US carrier that is able to be rooted and remove the bloat.

Don't hold your breath waiting for Samsung to offer an unlocked bootloader on any US variants. There are no US Carrier Branded or US Unbranded devices which can be unlocked. If you want no bloatware then the US Unbranded device is an option but if you need root you'll have to consider a Snapdragon International or Exynos Global variant. On these devices Carrier Aggregation and Warranty Repair would be challenging at best.
Dose one plus make devices that ship with unlockable bootloader?

Will the bootloader be unlocked in the future, is that a possibility, haven't been on the forums in 7-8 years. This phone is incredible, but the bloatware makes it useless kills battery can't disable apps. Someone help im over 30 days and don't know if I wanna return. I'm paying $15USD/MONTH FOR 18 MONTHS with buyout for $250USD so it's quite an offer to refuse. But I need root access and a custom rom on THIS baby!

The only one who can answer this is a well placed Samsung Executive, certainly not a CSR. No one has a crystal ball in this regard but I doubt it's going to happen anytime soon. Bloatware is the downside when you acquire a Carrier Branded Device and the $$$ you saved lose their value in the long run. Nowadays most carriers offer decent pricing on month to month prepaid without a long term commitment. Better off IMHO to wait a few months for price drops and feedback before purchasing any device. Saving a couple hundred on a smartphone you really weren't suited for doesn't add up.

So, your entire post was to show YOU have root, but not to provide any information at all on how you did it...when OP (and others, myself included) would like to know how it's done?
....thanks for nothing...

point is to show its absolutely possible. And I cannot post something that A, isnt my method to post and B, its not allowed to be posted on xda. So take it how you want doesnt matter to me.

Wow. Disrespecting elliwigy is not good. That guy has provided things for the public in the past and thats how you do him? Its because of people like you that xda gets tainted. Hell I wouldn't release it.
And one last thing:
ITS NOT HIS WORK TO SHARE!! READ

Who are you, his girlfriend? Go away.
To me it just seemed like a post bragging about him having root when others can't get it and obviously wanna know to do so. But if he can't or won't share how he achieved it, then whatever...it is what it is. But nowhere did I see him say he needed you to defend him, especially AFTER he already responded.
I'm done with the topic now though... moving on...

just because someone achieves something and let ppl know it is possible but cant provide details for understandable reasons such rules is not in any way bragging about anything.
I dont make the rules on here, in fact I support the rules and enforce them even considering I am a moderator.
Just because someone doesn't want to tell you details (because its simply not allowed) doesn't give you the right to judge people and post negatively about them in public. If you have any issues with me or anyone else I suggest you send them a PM next time.
Showing people that it is possible gives hope to those who feel it is imppssible and hopefully encourages them to keep at it.
I have no reason to lie to anyone and as you can tell uf you did any research on my past activities/posts you should see that every time I achieved root I posted freely to XDA so everyone could take advantage of it. So hopefully you understand if I could post publicly I would have already done so.
I did try to help people out and had them PM me and was advised not to do so even via PM because it is a paid service of which selling these types of services are not allowed on XDA. It is a paid service because the means to unlock the bootloader requires a purchase from a third party. There is no way to provide a "free" method as well as said service is device specific so there is no universal method and each unlock is tied to one device.
Think of it similar to those websites that offer sim unlocks. They are paid services tailored to one specific device. Paid services are not allowed on XDA since typically people use these methods to profit and in the past there have been a number of shady schemes hence why rules were formulated.
I hope this clears things up and you refrain from name calling and negatice remarks to people such as your last comment I quoted.

Instead of complaining take the initiative and hit someone up on telegram that you know has done this and im sure they would be glad to guide you too the proper place. Like elliwigy said it’s against xda rules to post such stuff here so why complain about it here. There are threads in s10 and s20 threads with people posting stuff for US unlocked bootloader phones. Hit those people up on telegram or outside of xda because people want too abide by the rules of xda and xda does not want this stuff posted on their forums.
