Pixel 5 stuck in Fastboot Mode

[mat_me]

Thanks for the update, great to hear that everything worked out

That reminded me about OEM unlocking.
E.g. in this post there is some information about it:

FP4: easy installer did not lock bootloader after installation, should i lock the bootloader manually after using e os already?

Hello everyone, I have a question. I used the easy installer to install e os on my Fairphone 4 and it worked almost perfectly. But after it installed e os it did not lock the bootloader, I think the app crashed or something. I didn’t realize that at the time and just started using e os on that device. I already checked fastboot flashing get_unlock_ability and it returned 1. Should I lock the bootloader manually, like in the instructions, [image] https://doc.e.foundation/devices/FP4/instal…

@ff2u gives there a link to the Fairphone forum where there is a detailed explanation at the end.

It seems that leaving OEM unlocking enabled leaves the possibility for recovery e.g. when the system won’t boot.

The Pixel 5 is treated as stable in /e/OS but I think I’ll wait at least until a successful OTA update before blocking myself from a clean install from scratch.
