I used a tool to generate the transcript and haven’t had a chance to read through it yet. So today I’ll be covering how to install stock Android OS on a Google Pixel currently running GrapheneOS. This process should still work if you’re running a different operating system than GrapheneOS looking to install the stock OS on your device, but for the purpose of this demo, it’ll be a Google Pixel 7 running GrapheneOS. So to get started, we’re going to head on over to grapheneos.org. Select install GrapheneOS. Select web USB-based installer. Scroll down in the table of contents to replacing GrapheneOS with the stock OS. This is the one part that’s specific to GrapheneOS, and that is GrapheneOS factory images. Flash a non-stock Android verified boot key, which needs to be erased to fully revert back to the stock device state. Before flashing the stock factory images, you should boot the device into fast boot mode and make sure the boot loader is unlocked. Then erase the custom Android verified boot key to untrust it. And then regardless of which OS you’re using, we’ll be using the Google web flashing tool. So we’ll get to that shortly. But the first step in this process is to enable OEM unlocking and USB debugging. So to do that, swipe up on your device, go to settings, scroll down to about phone, tap on that, scroll down to the bottom, tap on build number, I think four or five times. You’ll be prompted for your PIN code. Enter that. ...

I used a tool to generate the transcript and haven’t had a chance to read through it yet. So in today’s video, I’ll be demonstrating how to install graphene iOS on the Google Pixel seven specifically, but if you have a different Google Pixel, this process will be relatively similar, I’m going to be using the web installer. And if you use that, it’s nearly impossible to mess up your phone. So don’t be afraid to attempt this. Now with that being said, there are a few hiccups you may run into during the install process. And I’ll cover those at the relevant points in the video. The computer I’m demonstrating this from is running Mac OS, and I’m using the brave browser. So to get started, we’re going to head on over to Griffin os.org. All websites that I mentioned in the video will be linked down below in the description box. So once you get here, click on Install Griffin OS. As I mentioned, we’re going to be using the web based installer. So once you get to this page, we’re going to scroll down to the prerequisites, give this a read through make sure that you have all of these requirements met. Make sure you’re using one of the supported OSS, like I said, I’ll be installing from macOS. So besides a supported operating system, make sure you are using a supported browser. There is an important note here, if you are using chromium on Ubuntu, it’s broken and will not work. So use a different browser, such as Google Chrome. Another important note here do not use incognito or private browsing mode. And so once you give that a read through, I’m not going to waste your time by reading it to you, and you make sure that all the prerequisites are met, we can then proceed on to the first step, which is enabling OEM unlocking in the screen we’re currently on is the screen that you’ll see if you just bought it brand new and just took it out of the box. So first, I’m going to walk through the initial setup. If you’re already past this part, you can skip it, I’ll leave the timestamps down below in the play bar. So we’re going to go ahead and select to get started. I’m not going to connect to a mobile network, I don’t have a SIM card in my phone. Skip. I’m going to skip connecting to Wi Fi select Setup offline, continue. Date and time, you can leave that set to default. You don’t need to uncheck these but I like to anyways click Accept limited warranty. Next additional legal terms except we are going to be erasing the phone so you don’t really need to set a pin but I think it’s good practice anyways ...

I used a tool to generate the transcript and haven’t had a chance to read through it yet. So the main purpose of today’s video is to install graphene OS on the Google Pixel six a specifically, the process will be similar regardless of which pixel you have. But the one I’m demonstrating on today is the six A, we’re going to be following the instructions on graphene os.org. I’ll put the link down below in the description as well as on the screen right now. And we will be using the web installer, it’s essentially impossible to break your phone using the web installer. So don’t be scared to try this, I’ve done the process probably about 50 to 100 times at this point, I’ve never had an issue with it. Now that being said, there are some issues that come up for some individuals when they are going through the install process. And I will point those out throughout the video for any tips, you can try to overcome those. But with that out of the way, let’s begin the installation process. So we’re at Griffin os.org, the web installer, we’re going to go down to the prerequisites, give this a read through the supported OS. I’m installing this from Mac OS today using brave browser, make sure you are using a supported browser and a supported OS. Otherwise you will encounter issues. This is a very important note for those on Ubuntu. If you’re using chromium that is broken and will not work. So make sure if you’re on a boon to you are not using chromium. So once you know you’re using a supported browser and OS, we can continue, make sure to give all this a read through I’m not going to waste your time reading it to you. But there’s some other important bits of information in here such as Do not use an incognito browser or private browser. Because again, you will encounter issues. So once you make sure all the prerequisites are met, we are on to enabling OEM unlocking. So just a note about where you get your information from always go to the source directly, in this case, Griffin os.org. That’s why I’m following along in their guide when showing you the developers do a great job documenting the installation process and different features. Always go to the source. First, don’t trust some random YouTuber talking about it, or some random forum posts that you saw, you’ll always get the best information directly from the source. So the first step for this OEM unlocking needs to be enabled from within the operating system, enable the developer options by going into settings about and pressing the build number entry until developer mode is enabled. So I’m going to be demonstrating this, like I just took my pixel out of the box. When you turn it on for the first time, you will see this screen. If you already past the initial setup, and you want to skip ahead, I’ll have that in the play bar below. So you can skip this section. But if you’re here, go ahead and press Get Started. I don’t have a SIM card in the phone yet. So go ahead and click Skip. So you could connect to Wi Fi at this point. But I like to skip this because we don’t need a Wi Fi connection, we can set up the pixel offline first. So we’re gonna go to Setup offline. Just a quick warning about setting up offline continue. Date and time. I uncheck these just for good practice. Except Except it’s always good practice to set a pin. Even if you’re just going to be erasing the OS quick. Sometimes I don’t but you should anyways. ...
