Ricedroid 8 is an unofficial custom rom based on android 13 for the pixel 6 and pixel 6 pro maintained by XDA developer alvin14
Prerequisites ;
Unlocked bootloader and latest firmware
I'm using windows 11 with PowerShell. Use the same instructions with respect to your os and terminal preference.
Downloads
You'll need the latest platform tools and google USB driver
If you're having trouble accessing fastboot read this
Extract adb (platform tools) to somewhere like "C:\platform tools"
Type in the following in terminal ;
.\adb devices
Allow access to adb at the prompt on the phone screen
.\adb reboot bootloader
.\fastboot -w
This will wipe all user data from the device proceed with caution
.\fastboot update "path to ricedroid.zip"
Tip: copy the path of the zip file in the context menu before booting into fastboot
If you want magisk just extract the rom zip file and send the boot.img file to your phone then open the magisk app
Tap install > select and patch a file > select the boot.img from the file browser
The output will be in Downloads in the the phones internal storage
Send it back to the PC and copy the path of the magisk patched boot.img
Open terminal and type ;
.\adb reboot bootloader
.\fastboot boot "path to the magisk boot.img"
When the phone reboots, open the magisk app and tap install > direct install
There's a lot of additional features in this rom and as an added bonus, safety net passes out of the box
