Just days after the Pixel 6A\u2019s launch, Google\u2019s rolling out an update to fix an issue preventing users from unlocking the bootloader and performing mods, according to a report from Android Police<\/em><\/a>. The change is bundled within the Pixel 6A\u2019s first update<\/a>, which Google just started releasing last week.<\/p>\n

In short, a bootloader<\/a> is a piece of software that loads the operating system (OS) on a device when it turns on. Gaining access to the bootloader on Android can give you full control over your OS in a process known as rooting. It also allows you to install modded versions of Android, called ROMs. While some phone-makers and carriers don\u2019t let you unlock your device\u2019s bootloader, Google does things differently. It lets you dive right in on Pixels that aren\u2019t tied to a specific carrier (which are, confusingly, also known as \u201cunlocked\u201d devices).<\/p>\n
