Ever tinkered with your Android phone and ended up in a dreaded bootloop (a continuous restart cycle)? It can be a nerve-wracking experience, especially if you’ve made valuable modifications. While rooting your phone unlocks a world of customization, it also introduces the risk of incompatibility with certain modules.
That’s where the abootloop Magisk module comes in as a potential lifesaver.
