APatch is a kernel-based root solution for Android devices that patches the Android kernel and system, relying on KernelPatch. It supports Magisk-like system modules (APM) and kernel modules (KPM) that can inject code into the kernel via inline-hook and syscall-table-hook.
Use cases
- root my android device without unlocking boot image modifications
- run magisk-style modules on my android phone
- hook syscalls in the android kernel
- get kernel-level root access on arm64 android
- hide root from apps on android
- patch android kernel to gain superuser
When to choose
- you need kernel-level root on an ARM64 Android device with kernel 3.18-6.12
- you want Magisk-like module support plus deeper kernel code injection
- KernelSU or Magisk is not suitable for your device or threat model
When to avoid
- your device is not ARM64 or runs an unsupported kernel version
- you only need userspace root without kernel patching
- you cannot risk bootloader or kernel modifications on your device
