Google's method of remotely bricking leaked/stolen phones (like the Pixel 7a that recently made the rounds) is actually open source! They generate what's called a "brick OTA" that wipes the following partitions: vbmeta vbmeta_a vbmeta_b vbmeta_system_a vbmeta_system_b boot boot_a boot_b vendor_boot vendor_boot_a vendor_boot_b init_boot metadata super userdata This "brick OTA" is pushed to devices via GOTA (Google OTA) and can be installed on both "test-keys" and "release-keys" builds, but a serial number is required before a "brick OTA" can be installed on "release-keys" builds. Many OEMs don't use GOTA, but a lot of them now do use update_engine, so Google's new automated "Android Brick OTA generator" tool might find some use outside of Google.
