AndroidRootDetection

AndroidRootDetection is a lightweight .NET Android library for detecting rooted devices and helping protect apps from running in compromised environments.

NuGet Package

  • Package ID: Plugin.Android.RootDetection
  • Latest Version: 1.0.0

Install with .NET CLI:

dotnet add package Plugin.Android.RootDetection

Requirements

  • .NET for Android target: net10.0-android
  • Minimum Android API level: 26

What it checks

The library combines multiple root-detection signals, including:

  • Test keys in build tags
  • Known root app package checks
  • su, busybox, and magisk binary checks in common paths
  • Suspicious root-related filesystem paths
  • su command availability
  • Dangerous system properties (ro.debuggable, ro.secure)
  • Magisk activity / boot state checks
  • Ability to write to system partition

Usage

Quick check via helper

using Plugin.Android.RootDetection;

var result = await JailberakDetectorHelper.IsRooted();

if (result is bool isRooted && isRooted)
{
	// Device is rooted (or emulator, based on current helper behavior)
}

JailberakDetectorHelper.IsRooted() returns object:

  • bool when detection succeeds
  • Exception when an error occurs

Also note: current helper logic returns true for emulators.

Advanced checks

using AndroidRootDetection.RootDetection;

var checker = new AndroidRootChecker();

bool rooted = checker.IsDeviceRooted();
bool devOptionsEnabled = checker.IsDeveloperOptionsEnabled();
bool canWriteSystem = checker.CanWriteToSystemPartition();
bool magiskActive = checker.IsMagiskActive();
bool bootloaderUnlocked = checker.IsBootloaderUnlocked();
bool suAvailable = checker.IsSuCommandAvailable();

Notes

  • Root detection is heuristic-based; use it as part of a layered security strategy.
  • Behavior can vary by OEM, Android version, and custom ROM implementations.
