Mint has a really good deal on Pixels now. They say that their phone auto- unlocks after 60 days. Anybody have experience with those? Is the bootloader locked? If so, does it unlock after 60 days?

From the "unlocked" phone I got from verzion, they carrier unlocked, not factory unlocked. So they cannot install graphene OS.

Thanks. I’ve seen a few guides to unlock the boot loader using a USB connection. Would that still work?

The OEM unlocking function in developer tools will be greyed out on locked phones, even if it is carrier unlocked.

Unless your method can get around that, it is unlikely to unlock the bootloader.
