Shizuku service undetected on Android 16 environment #7

Environment

  • OS: Android 16
  • Access Type: Shizuku Mode

Bug Description

On Android 16, AppControl-X is unable to recognize the Shizuku service. The Shizuku manager shows that the application has been authorized, but upon launching AppControl-X, it defaults to the standard/unprivileged mode. There are no fatal exceptions, freezes, or crashes; the app simply fails to detect the Shizuku provider interface silently.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Ensure Shizuku is active and running.
  2. Allow Shizuku access for AppControl-X in the Shizuku app.
  3. Launch AppControl-X.
  4. Observe that the app does not switch to Shizuku-powered mode.

Expected Behavior

The application should detect the active Shizuku binder token and initialize the package management features accordingly.

Notes

Due to recent under-the-hood API changes in Android 16 regarding inter-process communication, older Shizuku binding/init methods fail silently. Updating the Shizuku/Aidl dependency or checking the provider authority queries in the manifest might be required to fix this behavior.
