How to Root the Pixel 4a - Every Last Step Covered in Detail

[@ruben79nyc]

Great to see another rooting tutorial from you Dallas! Thank you!

[@Random-video-etp-445]

Thank you bro it works for all phones I've even tried it on my google pixel 4 XL and it worked

[@PeloeCeci]

always great tutorials..i hope you come back with the videos !! hugs from Brazil!!

[@steynkramer7049]

after 9:10 i wanted to power on my pixel 4a but it said: "Your device is corrupted". Anyone know how to fix this?

[@__-zv7vr]

you haven't explained a really important part here - how to disable dm-verity, which prevents you from flashing any custom boot imgs. People are confused. I am confused. And people, your phones ain't bricked, just get the stock boot img and flash it, everything will be fine.

[@Absarock1]

Bootloader unlocked. But the phone bricks upon flashing magisk_patched.img. i have tried multiple time. Please help

[@DavidBlackDisalvo]

This does brick the device when you flash the magisk-created boot img. Use this guy's video to fix: kzbin.info/www/bejne/bXiqY6aNmJprkJY

[@nightcrawler9019]

Hi, this works on Androidn14????

[@webkeke]

works great, no brick, the Pixel is rooted. thanks. But how removed the message " the bootloader is unlocked " each time I restart my phone ?

[@xninja2369]

Not possible, you need to rewrite in motherboard or smth to do that.. even in Xiaomi or any android phone , this is will stay until you look it again..

[@J0hnnyrenegxde]

doesnt help at all. still says "waiting for any device"

@@Absarock1 I pressed off button and volume up button (the buttons vary from different phones ) I then plugged it into the computer. And used Google's tool and clicked reset . I was not able to wipe the phone without a computer.

[@awful999]

my iphone se broke the other day i really wanna just say fk it and get a pixxel 4a. you think its worth it with root?

[@gaming9489]

where to find the boot img after i downloaded the file the zip is not there

[@xninja2369]

In zip file there will be another zip filed name image- ( your device code name ) "... And inside it there will be boot . Img

[@raviravioli303]

This method will brick your phone, as the Magisk Manager does not properly patch the boot.img. Do not use.

[@AriesTheBestGaming]

Magisk Canary works really great it even patches verify boot inside the boot image, allowing you to boot the custom boot.img without boot-loop issues.

[@410sdd]

should we unroot the phone to update the android os?

[@nicochoco03]

Pixel 5 us the same now??

[@villymon5946]

When load patched img is't write: FAILED (remote: Failed to write to partition Not Found)

@@pogl1263 I never rooted as I'm playing with android spb2.210513.007 and untill it's released for my p20 officially I think I will play with this os for a moment.

[@JoshF151Tech]

I'm waiting until Android 11 is released to the public to Root my Pixel 4a it's just best to wait because once you Root it using this method you'd have to do a lot of things just to get back to stock Android because with this method it patches your Boot Image so basically you can't just Unroot and go back to Stock Android you'd have to run a whole bunch of command's on your computer and all that just to be able to get back to stock Android and be able to update your phone again it's really a pain and I wish someone would make a easier way unfortunately TWRP still hasn't found a way around this in Android 10 or Android 11 I'm hoping one day there will be a easier method to Root Pixel Phone's without patching the Boot Image.

[@ahmedtausif5491]

so if u root now you wont receive OTA updates?

[@porschepal7932]

Will this affect the Titan M chip?

[@pogl1263]

I can confirm it does. I use the unlocked version. I ordered it right from Google not making the mistake of getting it from my provider At&t.
