Description

When attempting to run the rooted BlueStacks environment, an error/warning message appears:

“The android system will be shut down because it has been illegally tampered with and does not meet security requirements!”

Shortly after this message, the Android system within BlueStacks shuts down or becomes unusable.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Install BlueStacks (version: [add version here]).
  2. Apply the rooting steps provided in the project.
  3. Launch BlueStacks.
  4. The system displays the security/tampering alert and shuts down.

Expected Behavior

Rooted BlueStacks should boot normally without triggering Android’s system integrity protection or forced shutdown.

Actual Behavior

The system detects "illegal tampering" and forcefully shuts down, preventing further use.

Additional Information

  • BlueStacks version: [add version]
  • Windows version: [add OS version]
  • Logcat output (if available):
    [paste logs here]

Possible Cause

It seems Android's verification system (likely dm-verity or OEM security service) detects modifications to system partition after rooting. This may require bypassing or disabling integrity checks at boot.

Request

Looking for guidance or a patch to:

  • Bypass the integrity check,
  • Or adjust the rooting method to avoid triggering the shutdown mechanism.

Thank you!
