Hello guys. New Pixel user here. I just bought a Japanese Pixel 7 and want it to root it. In the first post it says I need to download a factory image (global) to use it. Will it remplace my Japanese versión of Android? I think there are differences (like payment methods support) and stuff, and I want to keep my Japanese Rom (but rooted). Is it posible? Will that factory Image remplace my current one? Thank you and sorry for the noob question!

Edit: the phone has this hardware chip (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/FeliCa) that I want to continue using it.

Nice Guid, thx.

One thing at 2) Prerequisites .... A Computer with SDK Platformtools r33.0.0 , the link gets you to r34.0. Maybe you could change the link to r33.0.3 or to the thread Platform-Tools v34.0.0 HAS ISSUES, that provide the r33.0.3 links
to add on to this suggestion, if OP does not wish to direct to another Guide/Thread, you can get the URL links from THIS POST ; just be sure to credit @Namelesswonder for providing/pointing out the URL links (he, himself, may not actually be personally sharing/hosting the files, but still...)...

@nordilf
Thank you.
I believe the latest SDK Platform-tools is rev. 34.0.0 (RC2).

It was released yesterday (March 08,2023).

The OP has been updated.

<Edit> The SDK Platform-tools download links are still downloading SDK Platform-tools R 34.0.0 and not SDK Platform-tools R 34.0.0 (RC2).

    Update
    I tested SDK Platform-tools r. 34.0.1 it is not fixed. There are still problems with fastbootd. Use SDK Platform-tools r. 33.0.3
    5
    i had to do --disable-verity --disable-verification along with wipe data -w at least once with stock rom flashing to get disabled verification, for e.g. custom kernels. ok.
    and if i wish to stay disabled verification i had to continue to do so.

    but do had this to do also with every custom rom flashes?
    thanks in advance
    Yes, you have to --disable-verity --disable-verification every time you update the factory image. If you want to use a Custom kernel. If you skip doing it once the next time you do it you will have to wipe your phone.

    SDK Platform-tools Update
    SDK Platform-tools r. 34.0.3, was released May 22, 2023.

    @badabing2003 reported a problem when using it.
    https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...7-pro-cheetah-safetynet.4502805/post-88571575

    @Lughnasadh, suggested a fix.
    https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...7-pro-cheetah-safetynet.4502805/post-88571601

    @badabing2003, confirmed the suggested fix works.
    https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...7-pro-cheetah-safetynet.4502805/post-88571617

    Note: If you use Windows SDK Platform- tools r. 34.0.3. You must set the environment variable.

    I think the same is true if you use Linux SDK Platform-tools r. 34.0.3. You must set the enviroment variable.

    OK The sdk files that I downloaded are from AUG 2022 version 33.0.3
    adb and fastboot are in Windows C: \Platform-Tools
    Here are the directory contents
    Ok for some reason I can't post the contents of the dir. so adb fastboot files and magisk_patched-25200_OKTza.img are in the Platform-Tools directory. Is that what your asking?
    I know what your problem is, I'm trying to be helpful here, but I find it that you are either unwilling or unable to provide the information you're being asked.
    If it is the former, then I don't want to waste my time, if it is the latter, perhaps modding is not for you.
    I'm not asking those for my benefit, I'm asking them so that I provide you precise commands and instructions to get this to work.
    Just because you downloaded a specific version of the SDK does not make it that it is being used.
    How many times I have to ask you the provide the output of the where commands
    You say everything is in C:\Platform-Tools directory, yet your screenshot shows that you are not operating in C:\Platform-Tools directory.
