Linux mint pixel 8a. Fastboot Mode no connection

[ernstj]

Yes, the checkbox was set.

On the Graphene forum sombody had the answer. The google sdk pakkage in Ubuntu is an to old version. I updated the package and got the bootloader unlocked again.

Problem solved and installed GrapheneOS.

Maybe I go back to e/os but I must admit that installing Graphene was a verry easy process. I had e/os on my FP4 and found installing a bit of a drag. Switched to Ubuntu Touch on that phone witch is slidly more complicated I agree, but is I think, more safe.

Thanks for the help!

current is 36.0, may help…

@lies

Thank you very much! Your HowTo was very helpful. The installed version of fastboot was 34, the tools version is 36. I think that was it.

Hi Piero,

For me it was! After this change everything went smooth. Funny thing, google helpdesk and the servicecenter did not come up with this solution.
