You just need to download the TWRP image for your specific model and flash it via Fastboot. Use the command ‘fastboot flash recovery <recovery.img>’. But do ensure you enter recovery mode afterward to flash Magisk.

I tried rooting my friend’s Pixel, and he ended up with a boot loop! What are the best troubleshooting steps for that kind of issue?

Yikes! Boot loops can be scary. A factory reset via recovery usually helps. Just pray he has backups!

Remember, rooting voids warranties. But honestly, the customization is worth it! I love having full control over my device.

Absolutely! Plus, who doesn’t love a little extra performance boost? Just don’t forget to monitor for overheating issues after installing custom ROMs.

I just rooted my Pixel 7 Pro last week! Be careful though; rooting can void your warranty and there are security risks involved if you’re not savvy.

That’s a big deal! Always read up on how rooting can impact warranty coverage first!

I hear you both! Additionally, some apps might stop working post-root. It’s important to do your research beforehand!

True! I lost access to a few payment apps. Can’t risk that!

Rooting can enhance performance, but is it worth the trade-offs? Think about your priorities!

I’m curious about the security side of things. Does rooting really make your device less safe?

Yes, it can expose your device to malware if you’re not cautious. Just be informed!

Honestly, at this point, I’m kind of hesitant. The potential risks seem daunting.

You could always unroot it later, but the process can be complicated! Just weigh your options.

What if I unroot and still lose warranty? Does anyone know?

If you unroot, there’s a chance some warranty claims might still be denied. It’s a tricky situation!

Ugh, that’s a bummer! Almost feels like a game of chance! :joy:
