A Kernel-based root solution for Android devices.
- Kernel-based
su
and root access management. - Module system based on OverlayFS.
- App Profile: Lock up the root power in a cage.
KernelSU officially supports Android GKI 2.0 devices (kernel 5.10+). Older kernels (4.14+) are also compatible, but the kernel will have to be built manually.
With this, WSA, ChromeOS, and container-based Android are all supported.
Currently, only arm64-v8a
and x86_64
are supported.
To help translate KernelSU or improve existing translations, please use Weblate. PR of Manager's translation is no longer accepted, because it will conflict with Weblate.
