- How to Root INAIR Pod + Firmware Files
⚠️ IMPORTANT ⚠️
I am not responsible for any damage to your device. Rooting and/or flashing firmware files on the INAIR Pod is risky, so proceed at your own risk.
Rooting the device or unlocking the bootloader voids your warranty. The warranty does not cover rooted devices or devices with unlocked bootloaders.
What to Know Before Rooting or Unlocking the Bootloader (Check Back After Rooting for Steps)
Note: Rooting your device or unlocking the bootloader can cause the issues listed below. This may affect DRM streaming and banking apps. Some streaming apps may block access or updates, and banking apps are usually stricter about root detection. Because of this, the solutions below may not fix every issue. You may also need to keep modules updated from time to time to continue meeting app requirements.
-
Data Wipe:
Rooting or unlocking the bootloader will result in a full data wipe on the INAIR Pod. Be sure to back up all important data before proceeding. Once the firmware is flashed, all existing data will be permanently erased. -
Google Play “Device not certified” issue:
You can check your certification status in Google Play Store > Profile icon > Settings > About (scroll to the bottom for Play Protect certification).
If it says Device is not certified, try tapping “Fix device issue.” -
If certification still fails:
You may need to install the YuriKey Magisk module, along with any additional modules required for Strong Integrity.
Refer to the “How to get Strong Integrity?” section here:
https://github.com/Yurii0307/yurikey?tab=readme-ov-file#how-to-get-strong-integrity-
Alternative: Check out Integrity-Box from GitHub if YuriKey does not help you pass Strong Integrity.
Integrity-Box Requirements:
- Tricky Store or TEE Simulator
- ReZygisk
Note: You do not need both YuriKey and Integrity-Box installed at the same time. Choose one method and install the required modules for that method. Disable or uninstall any modules you no longer need to avoid conflicts.Warning: Rooting or lack of certification may prevent some apps (banking, streaming, etc.) from working. Compatibility is not guaranteed, and Play Integrity status should be checked at least once a month.
-
Play Integrity levels:
Google Play Integrity has three levels:
Basic Integrity, Device Integrity, and Strong Integrity.
Most apps work with Basic or Device Integrity, but some require all three.To check:
-
Open Google Play Store
-
Profile icon > Settings > About
-
Tap Play Store version multiple times to enable Developer Options
-
Go to General > Developer Options > Play Integrity > Check integrity
-
Passing all checks will show:
MEETS_BASIC_INTEGRITY, MEETS_DEVICE_INTEGRITY, MEETS_STRONG_INTEGRITY
Alternative (Easier) Way to Check Google Play Integrity:
You can use the “Play Integrity API Checker” app from the Google Play Store to quickly check your device’s integrity status
-
-
Hiding root (Recommended):
You may need to hide Magisk to prevent root detection. This can be done in Magisk settings, which renames the app, often to “Settings”, and changes the app’s package name to something unique so it’s less likely to be detected.
