Installation Minefield: Do This, Not That
- Signature Spoofing vs Rooting
- Use Shizuku API instead of voiding warranties
- Brooklyn shops charge $85 for what ADB commands do free
- Ads Removal Reality Check
- SnapMods Pro's "no ads free download" contains crypto-mining scripts
- Verified alternative: SnapFreedom (GitHub/@modderanonymous)
