Second time using PixelFlasher and couldn't be easier.

I'm an old school recovery-flasher since Android 2.3. Cmd is gibberish to me. So thank you very much @badabing2003 !

Can PF be used to flash December update over newer January update due to new bugs? Sorry if already asked I did try searching.

You definitely can use to flash, I don't know if downgrading works though, one time I tried it didn't (even though I was expecting it to work)
You can try, make sure you select keep data the worst that will happen is that it won't work and you flash back the January update.

Ok, thanks for letting me know. I've used it last couple of months to update, just wasn't sure about downgrade. Will try later when home and let you know how it goes.

Just FYI I tried to flash back to December from Jan update but PF fails at trying to patch the boot img
sqlite3.IntegrityError: FOREIGN KEY constraint failed

I guess I'll just stick with Jan update and the bug rather than wipe. Worth a try tho

Nah, that is something different, please provide support.zip so that I can take a look at that.
Most likely the patching worked, that is a message produced when PF tries to add the patched file to it's db.
Do you see the patched file in the list?

It doesn't add the patched file, it just show the please wait thing on the left. Will grab the laptop and get log

What bug?

 

[Beefheart]

Another update, another P7P flash using this tool with less than a handful of mouse clicks and zero issues.

Even if you have been using ADB for years like me, why choose to make things more difficult?

You might try manually flashing the Full Factory image i.e. enacting flash-all.bat -- if you are unfamiliar, it's a really good thing to learn & know and it basically is what badabing2003's PF does, just using a GUI and automating the process; so if you love this program, this will give you a better idea on its inner workings and how it achieves things -- if it might be something in PF and not in the actual flashing/applying process.

If you are unfamiliar with doing this, the best resource (IMHO) is roirraW "edor" ehT's guide in the section of "How to update each month"...It would be great if you could try it -- if anything, just for the knowledge & experience -- and hopefully it might be successful outside of PF's processing/GUI.
If you have any questions or hesitations, of course feel free to ask in the thread...

Good luck to you and hope it works out!

March 9, 2023 some reports Platform-Tools v34.0.1 not working correctly - Unlock bootloader / Root Pixel 7 Pro [Cheetah] / SafetyNet

Pixel 7 Pro [Cheetah] Note that two users have said that 34.0.1 did not work correctly for them. Someone reported it to Google (added a comment about 34.0.1 to the existing 34.0.0 report). tried to flash the latest build of AncientOS with it...

I can give @djcsurf a workaround to make the patching work in PF, but I'm waiting for the logs so that I see why the error is produced. By giving a workaround, we'll lose the ability to troubleshoot further.

You're suggestion of doing manually is a very good advice.

Another successful flash -- QPR2 flashed with no issue.

It will fail to install it you are rooted.
If you want to update and keep root, just download the firmware and repeat the process with the new firmware.

Just use the Android flash tool and force flash all partitions. There is no reason you can't go back to december. There was no anti-rollback feature in this version.
You could even use Pixel Flasher.

 

[krakout]

@badabing2003 :ah thanks, that's what I needed to know (in the end I rebooted and it seems it didn't begin downloading it again, so I'm readying Pixel Flasher to do it properly )

@Slim2none4u : yup, Pixel Flasher is what I'm doing, cheers

See this, when I tried to go from Sep to Aug A13.
Perhaps it was an aberration.

Flashing latest beta with Flasher went beautifully...

Thank you for the info, I will look into it when have some free time

I gave PF another try and it appeared to flash all ok but ended up in a boot loop with no option for anything but factory reset as data corrupt. Could be user error on my part, hence why I've not been about last couple days. I will grab the laptop later to see if any useful info might be stored as pass it over.
