[Q] Access files in rooted devices - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
How can i know if a phone is rooted or not. If yes should i grant any permissions to those files or can i directly access those files/folders.
I need this info for my app.
Thanks in advance,
Murali

It depends on the phone. What is the device you're interrested in?

Check if /system/app/Superuser.apk exists or if a "su" command exists.

Honor 9 preinstalled apps

Thanks in advance.
One way to bring them back is with a factory reset

The path is:
/data/hw_init/version/special_cust/SRT-L09/hw/eu/app
No root. Just apps on sd like paipai... Thanks
If you can get to the path (2 posts above) with a file explorer, you can install the apps you want again

Help with Shizuku Manager

I recently got App Ops and Shizuku Manager to help with my battery and device in general
Link ~ https://forum.xda-developers.com/crossdevice-dev/sony/tips-battery-life-multitasking-t3712660
I was wondering if anyone knows of any other apps besides App Ops that Shizuku Manager can give root permissions to ( I know technically it's a framework work-around, not really root permissions)

I havent been on here in years but is this correct?

Is this the true list of permissions for firefox 's latest version in your guys playstore? I just need to confirm before downloaded. Just needed to check with my old friends as I come back to android. Thanks boys! And girl !
Yes, that is correct. That is the permissions it may request. You still need to grant them. It does not give the app those privileges automatically when you download the app, if that is what you're wondering.

I am very glad you mentioned that. I did not know I had to individually grant them as the requests pop up. Thank you very much! You have been a huge help
