- Research device specifics (A/B slots, dynamic partitions, AVB state) first
- Change one variable at a time; test between steps
- Favor systemless approaches before invasive modification
- Full backup (apps + internal storage; partition images if possible)
- Download matching factory firmware / boot / vbmeta images
- Verify SHA256 hashes of critical images/modules
- Install latest platform‑tools (adb / fastboot) & confirm detection
- Ensure alternate access path (custom recovery / second device)
- Keep a pristine boot + vbmeta copy untouched
- Avoid stacking overlapping modules (e.g. multiple host-based ad blockers)
- Review open issues of a module before flashing
- Monitor first boot logs (logcat | grep -i magisk|zygisk)
- Keep a change log for easy rollback
- Corporate / MDM‑managed or mission‑critical device
- Reliance on unpatchable banking / DRM / enterprise apps
- You can’t afford data loss & have no backup
Respect licenses, ToS, and local laws. Don’t use root to unlawfully bypass paid features.
Sponsorships fund: app status verification, guide refresh, categorization improvements, automation & docs infra.
