WebUSB error when writing product image

Lukas

I tried to flash my Pixel device 5 times from my friends phone and it always fails at writing product part. It gives me this error:

Error: The requested file could not be read, typically due to permission problems that have occurred after a reference to a file was acquired.

How do I get my phone back to working state? Right now it doesn't work and I can't complete all flashing process.

That particular error means your friend's phone does not have enough free storage space on it. You require at least 32 GB of free storage space and at least 2 GB of RAM on the device you are running the web installer on.

treequell You require at least 32 GB of free storage space and at least 2 GB of RAM on the device you are running the web installer on.

Why does flashing 1GB of factory images require 32 times more storage?

Once you have a device that is suitable, return your Pixel to the bootloader interface, and flash release again.
