What is IcePatch?

IcePatch is a kernel-based root solution for Android devices that works in kernel mode and grants root privileges to userspace apps directly in kernel space.

IcePatch is a fork of APatch, maintained to preserve compatibility while continuing development and improvements.

Features

Compatible with most Android devices, not just limited to devices with GKI kernel.

Supports APModule (APM), similar to Magisk modules.

Supports KPModule (KPM), which allows to inject any code into kernel (Provides kernel function inline-hook and syscall-table-hook).

IcePatch relies on KernelPatch.

The IcePatch UI and the APModule source code have been derived and modified from KernelSU.
