Installation Guide (LKM Only) ​

What you will learn about YukiSU installation

Warning

Rooting your device can void your warranty and may cause permanent damage if done incorrectly.

Always create a full backup before proceeding, read the documentation to ensure compatibility with your device, follow the documentation, and have a recovery plan ready.

NOTE

YukiSU only supports installation and integration as an LKM (loadable kernel module). GKI / builtin installation paths are no longer provided.

Prerequisites ​

  • Carefully read the KernelSU Installation Guide, especially the LKM installation section.
  • Know your device’s kernel version, architecture, and whether it can load custom kernel modules.

LKM Installation Overview ​

  1. Prepare your build environment

    • Install the appropriate cross-compilation toolchain and obtain the kernel source.
    • Ensure you can build a bootable kernel for your device.

  2. Integrate YukiSU as LKM

    • Follow the KernelSU LKM installation approach, but replace the original KernelSU integration with the corresponding YukiSU branch.
    • Build the kernel module(s) containing YukiSU (e.g. .ko files).

  3. Deploy on device

    • Push the built module(s) to your device.
    • Load the module(s) as required by the KernelSU LKM flow and install the YukiSU Manager APK.
    • Grant root permission to YukiSU Manager and finish initial configuration on the device.

Exact build commands and patch integration steps depend on your device and kernel tree. Please refer to:

  • Your device kernel maintainer / community documentation;
  • KernelSU official documentation for LKM examples.

Post-Installation Verification ​

After installation, verify that everything is working properly:

  • Open YukiSU Manager to check root status;
  • Use apps that require root to confirm root access is functional;
  • Check the kernel version in Settings -> About Phone.
