This is a FORK of Shizuku. If you are looking for the original version, please visit the RikkaApps/Shizuku repository.

Get the latest stable or beta version.

All versions are distributed via GitHub Releases.

This version of Shizuku includes some extra features over the original version, such as:

• More robust "start on boot": waits for a Wi-Fi connection before starting the Shizuku service
• TCP mode: (i.e., the adb tcpip command) once Shizuku successfully starts with Wi-Fi after a reboot, you can stop/restart Shizuku without a Wi-Fi connection!
• Watchdog service: automatically restarts Shizuku if it stops unexpectedly, and can alert you of crashes/potential fixes
• Start/stop intents: toggle Shizuku on-demand using automation apps (e.g., Tasker, MacroDroid, Automate)
• [BETA] Stealth mode: hide Shizuku from other apps that don't work when Shizuku is installed
• [BETA] In-app updates: option to automatically check for new updates, and can automatically download/install the latest version from GitHub
• Android/Google TV and VR headset support: UI is now compatible with D-Pad remotes, all TVs are supported (including Android 14+ TVs that require pairing), and the multi-window pairing dialog is toggleable in settings for VR headsets
• MediaTek support: fixes a critical bug in the original v13.6.0 which prevented Shizuku from working on MediaTek devices
• And more!

Please read the wiki for setup, info, and troubleshooting steps.

The API guide and a demo project are available in the Shizuku-API repository

1. Shizuku has different permissions in root and ADB mode. You can see permissions granted to ADB here. If your app requires root permission, use ShizukuService#getUid to check if Shizuku is running as root or ADB, or use ShizukuService#checkPermission to check if the server has sufficient permissions.
2. On devices running Android 8 or lower, if you need to use Shizuku in a Service or Broadcast Receiver that might not be started by an Activity, please trigger the send binder by starting a transparent activity.
3. Please prefer using ShizukuBinderWrapper instead of directly using transactRemote when possible, as API calls can change across Android versions.

• Clone with git clone --recurse-submodules
• Run gradle task :manager:assembleDebug or :manager:assembleRelease

The :manager:assembleDebug task generates a debuggable server. You can attach a debugger to shizuku_server to debug the server. In Android Studio, ensure Run/Debug configurations > Always install with package manager is checked, so that the server will use the latest code.
