I am trying to install GrapheneOS on a brand new Google Pixel 3a, but I cannot connect to it using adb, so I cannot install GrapheneOS. Does anyone have any suggestions on what else to try?
Hardware info:
Google Pixel 3a with fully upgraded Android 10 (security update : August 5 2020)
Version info:
ADB: Android Debug Bridge version 1.0.41 Version 30.0.0-2
Fastboot: fastboot version 30.0.0-2
Things I have tried that DID NOT work (in no particular order):
- Activated developer mode
- Activated USB debugging
- Activated Stay awake (suggested on some forum)
- Activated OEM Unlocking (suggested on some forum)
- Activated View attribute inspection (suggested on some forum)
- Tried Revoke USB debugging authorizations (suggested on some forum)
- Tried all five available USB configurations
- File transfer/Android studio
- USB tethering
- MIDI
- PTP
- No data transfer
- Tried 3 different USB cables (one brand new)
- Tried using 3 different linux devices (2 * Linux Mint and 1 * Manjaro Cinnamon)
- Tried reinstall of android-tools (via pacman), as well as completely removing it and installing it again
- Tried installing android-udev
- Tried opening port 5037 (sudo ufw allow 5307)
- Tried disabling UFW completely (sudo ufw disable)
- Tried lsusb (no new device detected detected)
- Added my self to group adbusers
- Rebooted both the Pixel 3a and my machines several times
- Obviously unplugging and plugging in the device all the time
My main machine (Manjaro Cinnamon) could connect to my old phone (Samsung Galaxy Note 8) just a few weeks ago without problem.
