TEESimulator is an Android module that defeats hardware-backed key attestation by running AOSP's reference KeyMint trusted application inside the keystore daemon, signing attestations with a user-provided keybox. It selectively intercepts attestation requests for targeted apps while leaving all other keys on the device's real hardware TEE.

Use cases

  • pass Play Integrity checks on a rooted Android device
  • simulate hardware-backed key attestation in software
  • sign Android key attestation certificates with a custom keybox
  • bypass key attestation for specific apps while keeping hardware keys intact
  • spoof device identity and patch levels in attestation chains
  • make software keys look like TEE-generated keys

When to choose

  • you need per-app control over which apps receive simulated vs real hardware attestation
  • you want internally consistent attestation certificates generated the same way a real TEE would
  • you need profile-based configuration with different keyboxes and device identities per app
  • you want a fail-safe setup where a missing keybox makes the module inert

When to avoid

  • you have no valid keybox to sign attestations with
  • you need to spoof the verified boot state or root of trust, which is deliberately not configurable
  • you run Android versions older than 10
  • you want a simple certificate-patching approach rather than an in-daemon KeyMint simulation
