How to flash Google Pixel factory images using fastboot


  1. Download and extract the factory image for your phone and the google-platform-tool file on your computer
  2. Copy all the contents from the extracted platform tool folder to the factory image folder.
  3. Power off your phone and boot into the bootloader by pressing the power and vol down button for about 5 seconds.
  4. Connect your phone to the PC using a USB Cable.
  5. In the factory image folder double-click on the script to execute it  “flash-all.bat”
  6. A CMD window will open, and the installation will begin once your phone is detected.
  7. Your phone will reboot into the bootloader a couple of times and then into fastbootD, it's normal so don't panic.
