treequell thank you for the advice, I’ll try again once the new cable arrives!
Installation issues
Still not working with new bell in usb-a to usb-c cable :(
I’m stuck in the bootloader unlocked screen.. and device is not appearing on Mac. Can anyone please help me?
Freckles222 You're in the bootloader interface (fastboot mode), which is correct, but sometimes it needs a restart to get itself in order.
Try restarting the phone into the bootloader interface, and try again.
treequell how do I restart the phone when it’s in the mode? Sorry I’ve only ever used IOS before
Freckles222 Press the volume down button until you see the option to 'restart into the bootloader interface'. When you see that, press the power button to select it.
treequell it worked! Installation complete, thanks for your help
Freckles222 You're welcome!
[deleted] what fastboot drivers do we need to install? I have the same issue
when I connect the USB cable to the laptop it shows the pixel phone up, I'm not sure it is a cable issue for me
and when I click on unlock bootloader it shows the no compatible devices found error
I have Windows 11, and Pixel 6A
I tried on 3 different browsers, brave, microsoft edge and chrome and 2 different USB C cables
I don't have the original cable of the phone because it didn't come with one.

LostPhoenix Hi there, the instructions to install the fastboot drivers on Windows are given here: https://grapheneos.org/install/web#connecting-device.
Make sure you follow all the steps preceding that too; your phone will need to be in the bootloader interface for a start.
