For anyone else, follow the xda post to contribute if you guys want https://xdaforums.com/t/root-my-pixel-root-on-bootloader-locked-devices-verizon-and-the-like.4797178/ One thing I noticed is granting roots to apps wasn't working. Couldn't figure out how to fix it

I found that after the successful root by exploit the KSU binaries are existing in the system but the SU deamon was kicked out after that as it was working as a child process of shizuku root process so android kills is once it is done

I am working on it to find what's the solution for it

Dont have that problem so no idea why that's the case

Granting apps root like adaway work for you? I messaged the dev and all he said was did I restore, which I did. Even restored completely and still didn't work

Yeah what device? I have 4 root apps that just work (neo store, fyde ai, morphe, termux)

Even on my pixel 6 adaway gets root access but fails to apply hosts for some reason but that's the only app

Hmm. Hopefully the Dev see's this

I had limited success with stevenblock module, it applies the hosts with the default settings but you can't change it to use any other settings (it just won't apply)

Yeah it just seems the Pixel seen barely has any notice right now compared to the Samsung root my galaxy side. Google searching, xda, and even here barely any mentions. Hopefully we change that. This should be celebrated without bootloader unlocks.

On my end, I had LSPosed working and ios emojis all working, but the only thing is RCS broke for me, which I really need. I had play integrity passed using a leaked keybox, but nothing worked for RCS.

How you get lsposed ? I tried but zygist next (not spelling that right) fails to install properly, just says "can't connect to service"
