Pixel 10 flashing gone wrong

randomizedusername123

Hi, I need help with my Pixel 10. I tried flashing GOS today, I managed to finish the process and locked the bootloader. However, it is not booting up. After I see the Google logo it became black screen so now it is either stuck at a black screen or dead (not sure). What can I do to rescue this? I tried holding the power button, holding vol up + power and vol down + power. Nothing seems to be working.

randomizedusername123 Try holding the power button for a long time (more than a minute). Then try holding power + volume-down to see if that gets you into "fastboot mode".

de0u Thanks I tried it, no luck unfortunately

randomizedusername123 What happens if it is plugged into a charger for a while?

Is this a brand-new device? Being completely unresponsive indicates hardware failure.

de0u yes its brand new and I could turn it on before flashing GOS

randomizedusername123 Unfortunately it sounds as if flashing a new OS triggered a latent hardware failure. Some devices fail early! The part of the system that responds to the power button is not GrapheneOS software, so if that part isn't working then the hardware has gone bad (no matter how new/old the device is).

de0u Thank you! I brought it to an authorized repair shop where they determined that the motherboard died. It was replaced under warranty and I managed to flash GOS onto it!
