About OriginSU
A kernel-based root solution for Android — with its own identity.
Built on ReSukiSU (SukiSU-Ultra → KernelSU lineage) with its own kernel + manager signing identity, UAPI baseline and release pipeline.
Why OriginSU
- Hiding built in, not bolted on: Origin Veil per-app cloaking, a SuSFS manager with a one-tap strong preset, and an OriginGuard audit on every module zip.
- No module hunt: OriginZygisk ships inside the manager; kernel tuning (OriginTune) shows only knobs your kernel supports.
- Installer-grade flashing: direct install, AnyKernel3, offline
boot.imgpatching, Horizon kernels, LKM/GKI flows with KPM options. - Safety nets: bootloop rescue, biometric root gate, first-run wizard.
License
- Files in the
kerneldirectory are under GPL-2.0-only. - The OriginSU logo (
docs/OriginSU*.svg, launcher icons) is original work for this project, under the same terms as the manager (GPL-3.0-or-later). - Everything else is under GPL-3.0-or-later.
