Yes this helps a lot. So no added bloatware or verizon forced lock somehow?

Also Just opened my phone today and when I get to the magisk step I would love a guide for getting it all 100% working. Though I will try myself first.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] The.Jericho.Initiative:
Once bootloader is unlocked, which you should do literally first thing, I do not believe that a carrier could lock the device even if they wanted to. My experience was that the fastboot process was unreliable and that the step-by-step guide made certain linguistic assumptions that I had difficulty following. I have to imagine those breaks in comprehension led to the problems I experienced, so assuming you think in the same manner as OP was written, you will be fine. I do not, so... I wasn't.

Regardless, it's been several years since I last rooted a device and the landscape has changed drastically, even xda is much harder to navigate intuitively. From what I've read, if you spend enough time playing with the filters it will become easier but, idk. Apparently the old structure was much more computationally taxing, thus expensive, which drove their operational considerations to this new model.

I'm going to spend some time on CalyxOS and Graphene in order to see what the daily experience of their individual security model feels like. It's too bad, because I like the experience of Android 12 - minus Google's fixation on social engineering. It has a few thoughtful QoL features that I would have used if I were able to exist within Google's software ecosystem.

Anyway, good luck.

Ok I got to the part I think where I can flash magisk but when trying to sideload apk it says

\Magisk>adb sideload app-release (1).apk

adb.exe: sideload requires an argument

Ok I installed it from phone and rebooted pc. I got it installed now.

Also playstore not certified for some reason but I am guessing cause bootloader unlocked
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] The.Jericho.Initiative:
Once magisk is installed, go into the app's settings and enable Zygist, then hide Magisk and specify a name, enforce a deny list and put whatever banking or commerce apps you feel necessary, then download Safetynet fix 2.2.1, and you should be good to go, if playstore is a problem after this, delete the app data and reboot - then open it.

Also, I don't know my ass from a hole in the ground - I'm just figuring it out as I go - so take this advice in the spirit it's given, but not as an authoritative source. I hope this helps, and I hope you had a Merry Christmas.

i currently have 036 firmware on my 6 pro, ie pre dec update. i would like to unlock and root without updating to dec update for the time being. will the latest canary version root this previous firmware ok as well without the need to disable verity\verification?
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Lughnasadh:
Yes and yes. Just be advised your data will be wiped when unlocking the bootloader, in case you weren't aware.

EDIT: There was a change to Magisk 23016 that allowed it to be rooted on the December update (Load fstab from system/etc). I'm actually not sure if the changes would affect rooting on the November update. However, this particular change only affected the rooting process. There is still no need to disable verity/verification.

Not sure if this is the right place but I have root and am running into a problem. I cannot access system to change bootanimation. It says item root read only. But all my other root apps work fine.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] roirraW "edor" ehT:
If I remember correctly, I think for several years now root runs without actually making the system partition writable. Or am I confused? Hopefully, someone who knows better will chime in. :D
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Dragon Kumera:
I been able to do it on my pixel xl gen 1 running custom os (pixelexperience) android 11 fine. Also, I am using fx explorer. But pixel 6 pro i cant.

Might be the new way android 12 is?
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] roirraW "edor" ehT:
I thought it depended on the method of root and/or may be related to "systemless root". I'm grasping at straws because unfortunately, I don't remember the details since I rarely try that level of customization anymore.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Dragon Kumera:
Might be the explorer I use for file management just not upgraded to android 12 support yet. Not sure what ones are out there.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] roirraW "edor" ehT:
I use X-plore File Manager (including for root access - you have to enable in it's Settings), but as I said, I haven't tried doing what you're doing...yet. :)
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Golf c:
System has been read only for awhile now. Probably Android 10 and halfway through the pixel 2 series I believe
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] roirraW "edor" ehT:
Yep, I believe I've heard a Magisk module recommended elsewhere in this section that will make your file(s) of choice appear to be in system and replacing the file(s) that are already there.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] .Wolfie:
Might want to clarify that the first two are in the System/Developer area, and the last (USB) is in the Connected Devices area. Someone who is an extreme noob might panic a little trying to find the USB configuration in the same location as the first two.

Okay, this is the "boot.img" file in the image-*.zip file that is located in the same folder as the "flash-all" bat/sh files, right? Just want to make sure it's that file and not different file. If it is, might mention it's in the image.zip file as confirmation. I'm not exactly new to flashing phones but I'm not frequent with it either, so I tend to be overly cautious and question things if I have any doubt.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] roirraW "edor" ehT:
It's also in Developer Options (in the Networking section). See screenshot (Default USB configuration).

Yes, the boot.img inside the inner zip that's inside the outer zip.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Dragon Kumera:
ill check that out. Is it updated to android 12 support?
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Dragon Kumera:
sounds familiar. Prob some riru module or something.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] roirraW "edor" ehT:
I don't know, specifically. I haven't had any trouble with it. The Play Store entry X-plore File Manager doesn't mention Android 12 but the app was last updated on December 20th, 2021.

Anybody able to use Galaxy watch 4 after rooting pixel 6 or 6pro? Mine won't pair with my phone no matter what I try.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Dragon Kumera:
thx! I just installed it.

Side note put sim from pixel xl gen 1 to pixel 6 pro and it was instant. No issues. Says 5g in settings to so i assume the sim supports 5g? (Received calls and texts as well as sent texts and called fine. Was very fast.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] roirraW "edor" ehT:
Awesome. That's one of the things I'll miss when phones no longer have physical SIM cards, and we're all forced to use eSIMs. They have their use, but for those of us who like to tinker, it's nice to just be able to put it in another phone without calling someone or visiting a website and pasting an IMEI etcetera.

Good luck!
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Dragon Kumera:
Ya I was expecting to run into issues considering what reddit ppl were all complaining about.

Also verizon ppl saying stuff (but then again they know nothing).

Also that app you suggested really neat and saves time but still getting error for android 12. Maybe someone here will find a way to fix it or remind us of a work around.

Is anyone else having trouble with wifi 6e not staying connected/ taking a while to popup in the connect list?

I was told disabling/turning off adaptive connect solves the issue.

So far it not disconnected so hopefully that was it.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Dragon Kumera:
Wow they actually took December update down on pixel 6/6pro.

(Guess the one i downloaded will forever be unobtainable).
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Zach Alt:
Jus got my 6 Pro today. Should I just wait until the next update drops to root?
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] zetsumeikuro:
Funny that they even bothered removing the December builds this late in the game.

Jan update isn't going to come until late in the month. Root away, I'd say unless you're patient.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Az Biker:
If it were me, I would wait until the January updated later this month.

Several have had issues with the December update (that's why it was removed) and why flash Nov (if your device isn't already running Nov security patch) when the latest/greatest update will be here in a few weeks?

But, if that root, flashing itch is killing you, scratch it and flash that Dec update :p

Many have had no issues flashing December's update (myself included). Of course, had I known of the problems some are having with the Dec update BEFORE I installed it, I would've have taken my above advice and waited until the next update :D
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Dragon Kumera:
I heard wasnt till end of january we will get that update. The only problem i got is wifi 6 wont stay on and switches to 2.4ghz band and wont auto switch to 5ghz band when i got my router set to do that and every other device does it.

But my problems have been 0. Network stays connected (since turned off that adaptive connect feature).

I did not hear any of the issues till after I flashed but I got no issues anyways.

From what I heard its mostly just Europe with the issues.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Az Biker:
The big January fix update is supposed to drop Monday the 17th.

Report any continuing issues or notable fixes so others will know what they're in for :D

I decided to root my phone with running latest version of SM-A12F, but ended of the following:

System: One UI 3.1

Currently Running about

Android Security Patch Level: October 1, 2021

Additional: Unlocked OEM Unlock(Grayed Out), Device Unlocked

Attempt 1. After flashing twrp(many times, but different who bulid twrp), can't boot system. So i decided to flash stock recovery and goes running normal.

Attempt 1b: I flashed multidisabler with twrp but can't boot system and restart freqnently.

Attempt 2: After flashing twrp and vbmeta, booting to TWRP successfully but can't boot System.

Attempt 3: The basic solution about rooting with magisk was successfully but after an hour Google Services got often stopped and Google Apps too. I decided to restart and got warning message about "Security Error: only official BOOT to solve the solution", so i decided to roll back to reflash a new firmware.

[Motorola Edge 20] kanwaljeetsm:
I had bought this device and as soon as i opened an app with a complete white ui, i noticed some one or two vertical lines(not major enough to be called a display issue, but annoying to the eye)

The lines look like a little more brighter than the rest of screen area and hence noticable. I thought its a problem with my unit and replaced the device. The second unit which I received also has the same problem.

Is this really present on other units as well or there's some protective layer on the screen which could make me see those vertical lines?
[Motorola Edge 20] lucky_kuk:
I have been using my unit since 2 months now, didn't notice anything of this sort yet!
[Motorola Edge 20] kanwaljeetsm:
Which color unit do you have? The green one or the grey one?
[Motorola Edge 20] lucky_kuk:
The green one
[Motorola Edge 20] kanwaljeetsm:
I also have the green one. It's strange that I received two units with the exact same issue and now I am hesitating to return it.
[Motorola Edge 20] Phantsure:
Hey, i also notice those lines. 2 vertical lines towards the right side. My device is white. Not any major issue, as everything else seems fine and have to concentrate to even notice lines
[Motorola Edge 20] dannejanne:
My first device had some vertical lines visible on white backgrounds but I returned it. My second device does not have this, at least not so much that I have noticed it yet.

Lucky that you don't face the issue on the replaced unit

Hello everyone! Ive got this problem for quite some time now. My phone lenovo a5000 android 4.4.2 had this weird problem on its wifi. it suddenly hanged up while I'm browsing on facebook, so what I did was to reboot my phone but as soon as it boot up, the wifi scanning animation on its notification bar doesn't stop scanning for minutes and it will hang up again making my phone very unresponsive, screen doesn't work, volume buttons doesn't work, whats only working is the power button to be hold and reboot again. but after booting up, same problem would occur. brought it at a local service center and they managed to fix this up but only for a few days, the problem went back again. the only workaround I've been using until now is enabling the airplane mode so that wifi would be turned off automatically as it boot up because when i ticked the wifi on notif or on the settings app menu, the phone literally freezes so i have to turn wifi OFF all the time to use the phone (offline). I've tried many fixes regarding this issue but none of them worked

here are the methods that i have tried but failed

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] lewolffff:
I'm trying to resurrect an old S7 by installing a Custom ROM on it. Some of the ROMs seem to support only the Exynos version of the S9, but others do not specify. For instance, crDroid does not specify either version (https://crdroid.net/dl.php), while Pixel Experience specifies the Exynos version (https://wiki.pixelexperience.org/devices/herolte/). If no version is specified, can I assume it will install on my phone? Or do those that specify the Exynos version also work on the Snapdragon? Do you know a custom ROM that will install on my phone?

I'm no computer wizard but I have some experience modding hardware and software on Mac computers. I'd like to experiment on the S7 so that I can install a custom ROM on my S9+ when it's no longer supported....
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] Noobmaster20:
Well if you ask for Snapdragon S7

Right now it has no roms

all those there are for the exynos since the snapdragon has a locked bootloader which i don't know how they still didn't find a way to unlock it,also exynos roms will not work for snapdragon

they will make the phone stuck on boot
[POCO M3 Pro / Redmi Note 10 / 10T 5G] fm663:
For my Redmi Note 10 5G bought from Vodafone UK, initially I used Xiaomi Tool V2 (https://www.xiaomitool.com/V2/) to install the ROM, but it failed with error. After that any power on/reboot shows this error:

View attachment 5458547

Then I went into Fastboot and used MiFlash tool to install a ROM, that installed successfully. But each time I reboot (or fresh power on) I get the above error and the phone switches off itself. But if I press the power on within the 5 seconds, it will power on and then the phone works fine.

Although the phone works fine, any reboot doesn't work automatically, I need to press power button within 5 seconds for it to work.

Now my question is how to fix the error in the screenshot?
[POCO M3 Pro / Redmi Note 10 / 10T 5G] SubwayChamp:
Try with:

adb disable-verity

or flashing blank/null vbmeta:

fastboot --disable-verity flash vbmeta vbmeta.img or:

fastboot --disable-verity --disable-verification flash vbmeta vbmeta.img

fastboot flash vbmeta vbmeta.img
[POCO M3 Pro / Redmi Note 10 / 10T 5G] fm663:
@SubwayChamp Thank you for help. However I am getting this error:

adb disable-verity

verity cannot be disabled/enabled - USER build​

If I were do do the fastboot commands, will it wipe out the ROM+data in the phone (Note I have already been using it for last 1-2 weeks)? Also where to get the vbmeta.img file?
[POCO M3 Pro / Redmi Note 10 / 10T 5G] SubwayChamp:
This vbmeta will work https://xdaforums.com/attachments/vbmeta-tar.5065875/ (unzip it) not sure if this solves it, but it is worth the try. And not, flashing the vbmeta won't wipe your data.

I guess your device is unlocked, or maybe you did try to flash something unofficial on it being locked?, what happened prior to this appear?
[POCO M3 Pro / Redmi Note 10 / 10T 5G] fm663:
Initially I unlocked the phone, then installed Indonesian ROM from Xiaomi website and locked it back.

Does the phone need to be unlocked again?
[POCO M3 Pro / Redmi Note 10 / 10T 5G] SubwayChamp:
Yes, of course, this is why the warning message is appearing. In the other hand you were lucky to not brick your device, be careful not all the firmwares are interchangeable, specifically the Chinese, to be locked.

I mean, if you only are interested in this message to disappear, you should install again the same ROM that your device was in, but the Indonesian ROM is more attractive over the Global ROM despite the bloatware that can be uninstalled easily.
[POCO M3 Pro / Redmi Note 10 / 10T 5G] fm663:
Yes, it is the best ROM for my requirements, except I couldn't get Dual Apps to work in it. Do you know how to?

As I want to use Google Pay + NFC, thus I need it locked.

Problem now is I'll loose all data and its time consuming to install everything all over again.

Maybe I'll leave with this error as is for now, unless I find an easier way :(
[POCO M3 Pro / Redmi Note 10 / 10T 5G] SubwayChamp:
Strange, I used Dual apps in my RN8 exactly in Indonesian ROM (I switched from global because of the absence of Phone and Message native apps) although you are fear to, probably you need to format data in order that can work.

There are some workarounds in the Magisk thread to use GPay and NFC, although rooted.

I don't think there is an easy way because of locked bootloader.
[POCO M3 Pro / Redmi Note 10 / 10T 5G] fm663:
I did not know it is possible to get GPay+NFC to work while rooted. Do you not get CTS Profile mismatch error this way?
[POCO M3 Pro / Redmi Note 10 / 10T 5G] simika:
actually all you have been asking has been discussed already, we are all busy but at least spend 10 minutes searching, vbmeta, dm-verity, nfc+Google pay all well discussed already, please spend 10 minutes by searching 😊
[POCO M3 Pro / Redmi Note 10 / 10T 5G] fm663:
Thank you for the tips.

[POCO M3 Pro / Redmi Note 10 / 10T 5G] SubwayChamp:
If you want to stay locked no way to disable this warning message but if you decide to unlock your device and root it, it is pretty easy to fix it, one of the methods available is what I indicated, flashing a blank/null vbmeta through specific fastboot commands, there are other methods though, but this is the most universal and easy to use.

In regard to the CTS issue, I don't use GPay, so I can't tell you, but no better place that the Magisk Discussion Thread, it is the appropriate thread where you can find all the info from all the members affected on that, in the meantime you also can take a read on this https://droidholic.com/fix-safetynet-failed-cts-profile-false/
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] howie411:
When I first got my Note 20 Ultra (Aug of last year) the battery was amazing. Now within the last 2 months is horrible. My phone shows a full charge will last 11 hours and 51m. Just today I was out and about, unplugged at 11am est and by 4pm I was at 41%.

Not sure what has changed. Though Facebook is showing around 10-20% battery usage over the last 7 days which is odd since I'm not using it that much.
