Rooting any Pixel Phone (Android 12 and 13) (Magisk v25.2) 

a clear, straightforward, easy to follow tutorial. thank you! (4)

I been seaching to root my pixel for months now. i really thank you for everything. i almost gave up. thank you again!

An issue i have found is sometimes when flashing specifying "boot" results in a failure. To solve this look at your device and see what boot partition its using. For example my pixel says boot: b Then take your flash command and instead of specifying "boot" replace it with "boot_b" Otherwise incredible tutorial. Cheers

Worked like a charm in my Pixel 3! Congrats and thank you!

9:25 in my case, I had to give confirmation on my device screen to solve the "unauthorized" problem

Fanxx for this useful guide And by the way, your voice sounds asmr :3

If you get the "adb : The term 'adb' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet" error for newer versions of powershell you may have to enter ".\adb devices" instead. Took some searching around to find out what to do there. This goes for the fastboot part as well will have to be entered as ".\fastboot"

IF YOU ALREADY HAVE ANDROID 13 INSTALLED DO NOT FOLLOW THIS AND INSTALL THE LATEST ANDROID 12 AS YOU WILL BRICK YOUR DEVICE, MAKE SURE YOU INSTALL THE EXACT SAME BUILD VERSION ALREADY INSTALLED O. YOUR DEVICE

So, Long story short. there was an OTA update and magisk didn't save my stock boot.img for some reason. i was going through a method to repair the stock boot and that process needed a reboot and even with automatic updates turned off, it still updated and now i don't have root and doing this method now just sends me into a boot loop but I know i at least have the right file because then reflashing all slots to the same stock file allows a boot

thank you, this is what you call a perfect tutorial video!

thank you bro! quick and to the point. good stuff

I hope someone does a video on how to root a Verizon Pixel 8 Pro. Ive seen a thread about unlocking the bootloader and rooting a VZW Pixel 8 Pro.

Such a valuable content. Thanks a lot !!

Magisk image on pixel 7a stuck me in an infinite bootloop. I tried to reinstall the original boot.img but it doesnt work. So I reflash the original image usinv bat file to make my device working. Any way to root this?

Pixel phones are compatible with rooting as long as they are carrier unlocked and factory unlocked

I faced an issue where it says adb is not recognize. How can I solve it?

I saw a comment below but wanted to put one closer to the top. I installed an update which unrooted my phone but my bootloader was still unlocked. I followed the instructions from step 5 (the magisk part) and got it working again. hope this helps someone else edit: This was on android 14

My device keeps saying unauthorized

So am I screwed since I have a Verizon pixel 8 pro?

Dude thank you. So easy to do! My brother in law helped me get the boot.img though as the file i found didn't have it. Thanks for helping me root bro!

thanks, helped root my pixel 3xl perfectly

Unsupported Device is not supported for flashing. I can not rooted ?

How do you open up a command prompt after you paste the Magdisk file in the platform tools folder. Using Windows 7 pc? Please someone help me!

Man, I've literally never struggled this much to root a phone before. Out the box, I was having issues with not being able to switch the device that was in control to my pc to allow me to transfer files (which im praying is the case cause i have a new USB-C 3.0 Cable coming just in case) I've done all the steps up to getting the bootloader unlocked and flashing then renaming the boot image but now no matter what I do in deleting, installing, or updating drivers. it wont detect my device while in fastboot mode to flash boot the img file. any help please? Edit: I'm not sure if this is what changed it but I did end up rooting my device, the only thing I did different during the process was as soon as I got to the fastboot section, I entered Fastboot Devices And it found the device and the rest of the process worked like normal (nothing else was different. New cord didn't change anything)

this was a good tutorial it took awhile but we got there Great!

I have pixel 5a , does this work for Android 14?

heey , so i have a pixel 4 xl and the oem unlocking is grayed , i tried many things , anyone has a fix for this ?!

Will this enable Volte on Pixel 4?

I cannot believe how straightforward this was! thank you SO MUCH.

hi you tutorial was greati do it root in my pixel 3a but I have a issue with the phone so basically the phone work but the screen don't respond just the buttons respond

Helps a lot! Finally I find out where to download the driver!

Did everything in the video but at the end. When entering the last command "fastboot reboot" , my pixel 4a is stuck booting up with the "G" logo. Im on android 12 and used Magisk 26.3

I lost root after an OTA update and was able to re-root without wiping by starting guide at 5:30 - Flashing Magisk

Super easy tutorial thanks so much!

Failed to write the partition not found?

Well done sir

I doubt you'll check, but I get this error: FAILED (remote: 'Failed to write to partition Bad Buffer Size') When trying to upload the boot image. I am not sure what the issue is. Everything else went great.

I have rooted phones before but not since the start of the Magisk days. I just did this and now have lost touchscreen capability. Crap! My Pixel 3XL might as well be bricked. Tried flashing the original boot.img from the crosshatch zip and still not fixed. SHIT

I just did this and now my android wifi won’t turn on. Can anyone help with this?

Excellent video, thank you very much.

i keep getting "FAILED (remote: Failed to write to partition Not Found)" how do i fix this?

What happens with software updates? Will having a rooted phone break it? / reset it to default with the newer patch? And is there a way to UNROOT this after its been rooted? I'm only considering rooting for media recovery.

may I know , command fastboot flash boot fileName.img is used for what?

thank you man, first time I root my device and this was a piece of cake to follow

Worked perfect thank you!

hey im stuck at the part at 9:16 where you right clicked and then clicked "open in windows terminal", it seems that whatever i do it wont give me that option. what do i do?

Nice Video !

Does this work with the latest Magisk? on an Older phone? Recently bought a pixel 5 and got up to step 4 but I'm unsure as to wether to proceed or not since it only says (Magisk v25.2) I'm using Android 13 if that makes any difference.

can anyone help me install same process but with OTA images i'm not so versed in tech pleaseee.

Instead it waits for 5 seconds and it shows me Device status: LOCKED(in green) where you have it UNLOCKED(orange) at 03:57 mark.
