This is the phone that just keeps on giving! Just as long as your phone can turn on and the battery doesn't die on you. Today's video is a flash guide for the Pixel Experience 10 Beta ROM, Android 10 for the Nexus 6P. So far, so smooth.
Currently the Nexus 6P does not have a maintainer for Pixel Experience 10. :-(

Your issues may never get fixed at this rate, a real tragedy. Thank you Pixelboot for all the work you've done!

Hey everyone! It's October and its time for another update! TWRP hasn't been updated to support the new /system partition format yet so there's really no point in using it right now.
Today we'll be using Magisk Manager to patch the stock boot.img of the October update and using that to re-root our phone after updating.

Today we're going to be unrooting our Pixel 4 (or 4 XL). This is something you might need to do before flashing a ROM, just unrooting because it wasn't for you, or you're selling the phone! My case is the latter. I'll be returning to my Pixel 3 for the time being, but that's a story for another day.
This video will go over what to download, how to flash the factory images to restore your phone, and finally how to relock the bootloader (an optional, but final step).
You can use any factory image you please (as long as it's for your phone).
Remember to backup and ask questions!
This is a reupload as I mistakenly showed flashing the wrong file and it tripped up a few of you guys. Sorry! New video will be out soon! ?
