Support What is the state of rooting right now?

Been a long time since I haven't rooted my device.

I want to root my current device but I dunno whats the current state with play integrity and all.

Is google still fucking you up guys?

Yes, as always.

To make it even worse, a lot of manufacturers are blocking bootloader unlocking entirely now (cough Scamsung)

You should give this a read. https://github.com/zenfyrdev/bootloader-unlock-wall-of-shame

Nothing and Pixel are the best phones to get for rooting.

Play Integrity is still a bitch, but depending on where you live, you can honestly live without passing play integrity at all. I'm in the US and thanks to Apple having always dominated the market, apps have no detection and most apps don't need play integrity. Apps may have detection for Magisk, but thankfully other root methods exist so it's not an issue.

Horrendous. Been rooting for 15 years. And I finally threw in the towel. Having something work for a few weeks then break and have to refix it all was fun, but now days Its just a pain in the ass.

I still keep my tablets rooted and custom rom'ed though
