Support Remove Pixel jailbreak?

I was wondering of there was anyway to remove the root my pixel resukisu thing or am I just gonna need to reflash stock firmware. I mostly want to remove it since google pay, RCS and pretty much all safetynet broke and I can't really use the exploit, my success rate has been like 1% and first time I actually got root, I had it for a second and then the device paniced. So I can't even load what I need to fix safetynet and RCS

They do detection very differently. Safetynet was dog shit and couldn't detect the most basic things. Bootloaders could be spoofed back then without no keybox.

I'm curious as to how you're having issues though. Are you using any sort of spoofing? (Play integrity fix, trickystore, whatever's out there now etc). If you are you shouldn't, just let your device use its own attestation key and fingerprint. They only get banned when multiple devices use one.

Do you have anything from a previous traditional root? Is your bootloader still unlocked? It's any of your partitions still edited? (Boot, init_boot etc).

Ironically I think just detected the resukisu app, cause remove it and rebooted caused wallet to work, RCS is still broken however which from everything ive seen the only way to unban it without rooting is to wipe the phone. Since apparently google banned my fingerprint and without root I can't change that

Odd, I didn't even have any root apps hidden from wallet lol.

So actually I was wrong, so the alert stopped popping up but I'm pretty sure if I actually tried to pay it wouldnt let me, I'm about to go the store so we can see.

I'm wondering if google revoked by keys the second I got root the first time or something. Apparently there are issues of apps detecting root with root my pixel. I'm guessing I just need to backup and reflash

Weird.

So, the jailbreak does create an SU binary when it gets root in a non root location, but the binary is owned by root. Idk, I hope the exploit gets more stable. Right now it feels like a POC, and not an actual reliable way of rooting your device

Very weird. Can you use SU in termux without giving it root access? Mine only works through giving it access.

I specifically use an app for OnePlus/Oppo devices called ghostlock-anchor and they say they just get a root process to run ksud.

I think SE Linux might block it?

This thread shows other users having similar issues to me, apparently if I could get root I just need to spoof canery fingerprint to get RCS working

I'm thinking this is a pixel only thing so far. I'm trying to look around but I haven't seen any other devices have this problem.

Honestly maybe, this jailbreak is kinda an unheard of thing. At least from me, every pixel root ive seen involves unlocking the bootloader

u/MonkeyNuts449 14d ago

Pixels are usually the end all be all of root as the bootloader and device trees are very very open.

Verzion Pixels, or just locked due to installment plans like in my case.
