Install with PixelFlasher
Alternative flashing app with advanced options.
[!CAUTION]
Flashing a kernel can brick your device and will void your warranty. Make a full backup (boot partition at minimum) before proceeding.
Prerequisites
- Device with unlocked bootloader running a GKI2 kernel 5.10+
- Root access already granted to the flashing app
Steps
- Download the AnyKernel3 ZIP that matches your kernel version (e.g.,
6.1.157-android14) from the latest Releases page.
- Open PixelFlasher, grant necessary root permissions when prompted.
- Select the AnyKernel3 ZIP you downloaded and flash. Do not interrupt the process.
- Reboot when prompted and verify KernelSU manager shows the expected version.
[!NOTE]
Match by the full kernel version (e.g., 6.1.157-android14) - your device's Android version and the android14 in the kernel version are not necessarily the same.
About
After flashing
- Install / update the matching KernelSU manager APK (see release assets
manager-apk-*).
- If using SUSFS, install the SUSFS module via the manager.
- Verify with
su or manager app that root is working.
Troubleshooting
- Bootloop - restore your boot backup via fastboot/recovery.
- Wrong KMI - re-flash with the correct KMI variant; KMI mismatch is the most common failure.
- Manager shows old version - ensure you flashed the intended variant and rebooted fully.
