Bootloop Protector Fork
Bootloop Protector Fork is an important safety feature for Android systems. It finds and fixes bootloop problems and SystemUI problems caused by modules in rooting tools like Magisk, KernelSU, or APatch. This module keeps an eye on boot sequences and automatically shuts down broken modules to stop devices from restarting over and over again. This keeps devices stable without the need for manual changes. It uses a systemless strategy that doesn’t change core partitions, making it easy to remove and work with software updates.
This fork, made by wahyu6070, is in the stable version that came out on January 5, 2026. It works well with rooting platforms like Magisk, KSU, APatch, and KSUNext, which makes it popular with a wide range of modding fans. It is an open-source project under GPL-3.0, which means that anyone can help make it better. The code is available on GitHub for people to look at and make changes. This version of the original Bootloop Protector improves the way it detects problems and adds whitelist options. This makes it a reliable choice for keeping devices working even when experimental modules are set up.
Key Features
- Automated boot failure tracking using sequential marker files (marker1, marker2, marker3) to spot repeated issues.
- Instant module deactivation after detecting three failed boots, by generating disable flags in module folders.
- Whitelist functionality via text files (/data/adb/YABP/allowed-modules.txt and /allowed-scripts.txt) to protect essential modules and scripts from being turned off.
- Optional SystemUI oversight that scans for process absences or crashes every few seconds, leading to module shutdown and reboot if problems persist.
- Recovery mode integration: When installed through TWRP or similar, it promptly disables all modules if the data partition is reachable.
- Manual intervention trigger by placing a bootloop-remove-module file in locations like /cache or /sdcard to force module removal on next startup.
- Detailed logging in /data/local/tmp/service.log for troubleshooting, with easy log clearance commands.
- Action button for re-enabling disabled elements and restoring script executability.
Installation Guide
Check that your device has root access through Magisk, KernelSU, or APatch. Get the module ZIP from the GitHub release link that is meant for it. Open your root manager app, find the modules section, and choose to install the package you downloaded. To turn on the module, restart the device. When you set up your device, answer questions about turning on the SystemUI monitor. Flashing the module will automatically turn off any existing modules for custom recovery like TWRP, so only use this in an emergency. After installation, check the logs to make sure everything is working and make whitelist files if you need to to keep certain items from being affected.
Functionality and Usefulness
A group of coordinated shell scripts that control boot and runtime activities run the module. The module.prop file has basic information like the module’s name, version, creator, and a summary. This helps root managers identify the module. Post-fs-data.sh sets up things that need to be done before the system boots, like making marker directories. The core service.sh runs in the background and checks the boot process every so often. If it finds a failure, it adds markers. After three failures, it disables modules by making disable indicators while still following whitelists. It also keeps an eye on SystemUI in a loop, changing script permissions to non-executable (644) while fixes are being made and restoring them through the action.sh script. Customize.sh lets users make choices during installation, like turning on and off the monitor. Uninstall.sh cleans up leftover files, like markers and permissions, after the program is uninstalled. Status.sh helps with internal checks, making sure that everything runs smoothly during all boot phases without using too many resources.
This tool is very useful for root users who like to test modules because it stops bootloops that would otherwise need recovery mode or data wipes to fix. It saves time and lowers risks by offering automatic recovery. This lets you try out customisations like performance tweaks or UI mods without worrying about breaking the device. For developers, its logging and whitelist features make debugging easier. For everyday users, it makes custom ROMs and older hardware more stable, which extends the life of the device and makes it easier to use with other tools. Basically, it turns possible disasters into manageable events, which makes people more confident in rooting practices and makes modding safer.
Compatibility Details
Bootloop Protector Fork works with devices that have been rooted with Magisk, KernelSU, APatch, or KSUNext, as long as the data partition can be accessed. It fixes boot problems that are related to these frameworks, but it might not fix problems that come from directly editing the system or making early prop changes. Compatibility works with many versions of Android, but it works best on setups where modules are the main cause of failures. Custom kernels make it work better, but users should test it on stock setups to be sure. It doesn’t cause problems with most modules, but direct file modifiers might be able to get around its protections.
Additional Notes
Limitations include inability to fix non-module-related bootloops or those in very early boot stages. For best results, maintain whitelists accurately and review logs regularly. The project credits original contributors and invites forks under GPL-3.0. Community channels on GitHub can provide further tips. Always backup data before module trials, as while protective, no tool guarantees full immunity.
