Meta A Clarification: Our Stance on AI in this Subreddit

83 Upvotes

Hi,

While the Moderators of r/androidroot have a generally moderate stance on AI, when it comes to devices worth potentially thousands, we are uninterested in allowing it to provide false information.

To clarify, AI content/promotion is not permitted on r/androidroot, and this has been a rule for some time. Using AI to make guides, recommending the use of AI to attempt to solve issues, and posting AI generated comments are prohibited.

We believe in minimising the spread of misinformation. AI models are not reliable when it comes to factual information yet. It’s also often known to make things up when it has no answer. No resources for rooting an obscure Android device? It’ll make it up based on other information that it deems most likely to be useful. AI, in this state, is not suitable for rooting. It presents too much unmitigated risk, and we will not hold ourselves responsible for the damage caused by content posted on this subreddit.

If you have any questions regarding the rule, comment. However, the decision on this is final.

Thanks for reading.

It's a KernelSU module that can handle push, pull, shell, root shell, port forward, reverse tunnel, clipboard sharing, and more—all without triggering detection.

While Zygisk modules claim to 'hide' debugging status, they rely on code injection, which apps can still detect. In contrast, my module doesn't use ADB at all and supports outbound mode, so it cannot be detected.

Support Pixel 9 - Can This Be Rooted

Post image
6 Upvotes

Not sure if this screenshot is enough info. But I am trying to buy this from marketplace and want to root it and add Magisk. Can we tell if this can be rooted based off of what is currently toggled on OEM unlocking? He says he was able to toggle it, but I can’t tell if this is greyed out or if he did turn it on off/on(never owned a pixel)

This is a pixel 9 says unlocked so I’m guessing bought from Google since it isn’t phone company specific

Discussion Pixel Watch 4 Wi‑Fi battery drain after switching phones(both rooted)

1 Upvotes

After migrating my Pixel Watch 4 Wi‑Fi from a Pixel 10 XL to a Pixel 11 Pro XL, the watch started draining rapidly whenever I woke or used the phone. Overnight battery usage remains normal.

Observed behavior:

Battery dropped about 2% in 5 minutes, roughly 20–25% per hour.

com.google.android.gms.persistent shows high CPU usage.

Wear_Transport and wearChannelApiRetransmissionQueue wakelocks repeat continuously.

Phone logs repeatedly show:

- Remote device failed to verify local attestation

- Detected a Ukey2 handshake role collision

- secure channel attach/detach retries

The watch logs Failed to verify remote attestation.

Rebooting and resetting the watch did not resolve the issue.

The paired phone is rooted with KernelSU, TrickyStore, PlayIntegrityFork, and LSPosed installed.

This appears to be a Wear OS Companion secure-transport retry loop triggered after the phone migration.

Support Google wallet is not working

Hi. After some hours of headache and tries, I still was not able to fix that problem.

My samsung s25 ultra is rooted by using the kernel exploit, bootloader locked, no system modifications.

The most interesting is that it was working perfectly even when the phone was rooted, and suddenly, out of nowhere it stopped.

Tried to reboot and fully delete the root, but it still gives me the same error "Device doesn't meet security requirements

This device may be rooted or running uncertified software."

Would be very grateful for any help/solutions.

Discussion Porting GhostLock (CVE-2026-43499) to Nothing Phone (2) (Pong) / Kernel 5.10.252

4 Upvotes

Hey guys,

I’ve been following the recent boom of GhostLock (CVE-2026-43499) temporary root exploits and the amazing work by  @ang3lo-azevedo  with the root-my-nothing tool for NP1 (Spacewar). I'm trying to figure out the feasibility of porting this to the Nothing Phone (2) (Pong).

Since my current kernel is  5.10.252 , it's technically vulnerable (patched only in  5.10.261 +).

My Device Details:

Device: Nothing Phone (2) (Pong) / Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 (Cape)

OS / Build: Android 16 /  B4.1-260818-1726  (NothingOS)

Kernel:  5.10.252-android12-9-00029-g6315c5776365-ab15925896 

My question to the community/devs:

Has anyone already started working on a PoC or a port of GhostLock (or similar CVEs) for the Pong kernel? I know it requires dumping the kernel, finding the exact  prepare_kernel_cred / commit_creds  offsets, and adapting ROP chains for the NP2's specific KASLR/Qualcomm mitigations.

If any of you (or the devs behind ghostlock-oneplus / root-my-nothing) are looking for testers with an unlocked device or want to collaborate on mapping the kernel structures for NP2, I’d be more than happy to help, dump logs, or share my firmware dumps from  nothingarchive.tech .

Any pointers on where to start reversing the  cape  specific kernel mitigations would be highly appreciated!

Support Redmi note 7 guide

3 Upvotes

So I will get a redmi note 7 soon and I found that there are some vbmeta issues but I used to own a redmi 7a from 2019 where there weren't any, I'm wondering if someone could give me a guide on how to install custom roms without hard bricking it, I found another post saying something about using a specific fastboot version to avoid vbmeta issues (pt33) but on my redmi 7a it didn't have any issues with regular fastboot, also I never flashed vbmeta nor dtbo, lastly what is the smoothest rom on a high-ish android version (13+) for daily driving and customisation (also I don't have a pc atm so I will do everything via a secondary phone and termux, afaik this shouldn't affect most of the flashing but mostly flashing recoveries and other img files so tips for that will also be appreciated, I don't know how to unlock the boot loader using termux though)

Support Trying to flash a custom ROM/Recovery (Samsung Tab A7 SM-T500)

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone, I’m looking for a final push through this process. I can’t find any resources online, so maybe someone here can help me.

I’ve got my hands on several Samsung tablets from a company that shut down, but they’re all enrolled in Knox.
I bypassed Knox using AllianceX Shield, which allowed me to enable OEM Unlock and USB Debugging (these options were previously locked).

The devices work, but I still can’t unlock the bootloader since performing it wipes everything and re‑enables the Knox processes.

I can’t flash a custom recovery or ROM because during the process I get the error:

**KG status: prenormal — “Only official released binaries are allowed to be flashed.”**

Is there any way to change the **KG status** so I can flash custom binaries freely?

News / Method Warpnet-MTK (Module for root manager)

1 Upvotes

I have a MediaTek device and kept noticing that whenever my phone wakes up from idle, the first ~10 seconds of 5G/4G feel sluggish even though speedtests show good numbers.

Couldn't find anything that actually fixed it (most modules are just snake oil tbh 🐍) so I built my own.

⚡ WarpNet MTK — it tunes the device-side network stack only:

✅ Fixes idle wake-up lag (that 10-second "why so slow" moment)

✅ Keeps throughput stable when downloading

✅ Lowers latency spikes during heavy use 🎮

✅ Smart reconnect — auto-switches from dying cell towers

✅ No radio/modem changes — safe to revert anytime

✅ Built-in bench tool — get receipts, not vibes 🧾

4 modes:

• SpeedBoost (light + battery save 🔋)

• WarpNet (daily driver ⭐)

• WarpNet++ (max performance 🚀)

• Turn Off (100% stock restore ♻️)

Works with Magisk, KernelSU & APatch ✅

MediaTek only (Snapdragon → separate project)

🔗 https://github.com/Alchemiisst/WarpNet-MTK

Feedback welcome — flash it, bench it, roast it, whatever 🤷‍♂️

If it helps you, a star on the repo means a lot ⭐
