No compatible devices found

res7art

Hey, would need a little help. I get this when I try to unlock the bootloader:

"No compatible devices found"

I tried 3 different USB cables from the back side of my computer case. (My google pixel 6a didn't come with a cable from the box.)
I'm using Google Chrome.
I also did not have any windows update.

What could be the problem?

res7art You likely haven't installed the fastboot drivers, which are required. Boot the phone into the bootloader interface (fastboot mode), connect the phone to your PC ideally using the factory USB-C to USB-C cable from Google, and run Windows update on your PC. Under optional updates there should be one with "Android Bootloader Interface" in the name. That's the one you want to install.

treequell Yes, there was an optional update with name "Android Bootloader Interface". I thought it would be some kind of an official update.

Thank you and respect!

That's good. The rest of the install should now go smoothly. If you encounter any further issues, please don't hesitate to ask.
