Android 13 is out officially. Here's how to manually install and root it
Turn on USB debugging
In settings on your pixel device, go to About Phone and scroll down until you see build number and keep tapping on it to enable developer options and turn on USB debugging
Plug in your phone, you might need to authorize adb access in the pop window
We will get the boot image from here and flash it in fastboot later
Tap on allow adb access. If the tool can't find your phone make sure edge or chrome isn't blocking the popup
Look for the pen icon and tap on it to edit your preferences
Note that you won't be able to downgrade to android 12
Let it do the work from here. Boot into android and enable developer options
Download platform tools and the google USB driver install the driver in fastboot
Extract the factory image zip file and also the zip file inside it. Send the boot.img file to your phone and open magisk app > select and patch a file > select the boot.image
The patched boot image will be in the downloads folder. Send it to the PC
Right click on the file and tap on copy as path'
Go to the platform tools folder and open a terminal
I'll be referring to PowerShell because it's what I use.
.\adb devices
Allow adb access
.\fastboot boot paste the copied path here
This will boot magisk but not flash it.
Open the magisk app and tap install > direct install
The phone will reboot into rooted system
