Hello! I would like to install /e/os on my Pixel 8a. Data can be lost, i dont care. I have no computer only and iPad an cables to connect. Can this be done with these devices alone?

Hello @easygvh
no, it won’t work.
you need flash programs for example fastboot that cannot be installed on the ipad.
even if you tried to call the installer in the ipad’s browser, it won’t work.
you need a laptop or pc to make it work.

Which security patch (month) do you have on the Pixel 8a?
The newest from 20 days ago or so

Then at the moment it isn’t so easy to install /e/OS maybe even impossible.
There is a new bootloader which prevents to go lower than a15.
