Video Description
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I've already done two different videos showing how to root the Google Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro but things keep changing so an up to date version is needed yet again. This week, the developer of Magisk released version 24 of his root tool for Android and that meanst here's a new way to root the latest Pixel smartphones from Google.
Thankfully, the process is much easier than it used to be and it will resemble the traditional root process that many of you may already be familiar with.
Rooting the Pixel 6 requires you to have the bootloader unlocked already. So if you haven't done that yet either, check down in the video description below and I'll include a link to a guide showing you how all of that is done.
Then, you will need to download and extract the contents of the Google Pixel 6 or Pixel 6 Pro firmware that you're currently running on your phone. We download this firmware directly from Google's servers and then extract it so that we can modify the the boot.img file (which is needed to gain root access).
#GooglePixel #Pixel6 #Pixel6Pro
I download this file to the PC and then copy the boot.img file over to my phone, but you could just download and extract it onto your phone if you'd like. No matter which method you choose, the goal is to get the boot.img file onto the Pixel 6.
Now, we need to install the Magisk APK from the developer's GitHub page. I generally recommend you download the latest version in tutorials like these, but if you're wanting to use the same version I have, version 24.x is what I'm using here in this video.
