Credits

• Built the Odin root-service binding framework, now a standalone library at trinadhthatakula/Odin and published to Maven Central as com.trinadhthatakula:odin. Odin was adapted from the architectural design of libsu by topjohnwu and completely rewritten to eliminate all com.topjohnwu package namespaces.
• Replaced AndroidHiddenApiBypass with an internal Kotlin implementation in the bypass module, backed by Java stubs in the vm-runtime module for maximum compatibility when shadowing system classes.

Architectural Advances in Odin

• Pure Kotlin: Fully converted the original Java-based design of libsu into a high-performance, modern, reactive Kotlin library.
• Zero Raw Binaries: Completely eliminated precompiled binary dependencies (such as main.jar), bypassing external file extractions.
• Direct APK Classpath Invocations: Dynamically mounts the app's main APK (base.apk) on app_process's execution CLASSPATH, bootstrapping directly using a custom Kotlin classloader trampoline (com.valhalla.superuser.internal.RootServerMain).
• Refer to the Odin README for more details.

⚠️ Official builds & unofficial forks

Thor is 100% FOSS with no ads and no trackers. Official, ad-free builds come only from Google Play, IzzyOnDroid, Indus App Store, and GitHub Releases.

The GPL guarantees your right to fork and modify Thor. However, an unofficial build that injects ads or trackers, or bundles a proprietary ad SDK (e.g. AdMob) is not the official Thor, is not endorsed, and — because it combines GPL-licensed code with proprietary components — is likely in violation of the GPL. Such builds must also rename the app and change the icon per TRADEMARK.md. Please report them.
