Setting up Android For BurpSuite & Frida to pentest and app testing

Emulator setup

[!IMPORTANT] Download & Install Android Studio from here

• Create a Virtual Device in Android Studio.

Rooting The AVD (Android Virtual Device)

• Start the AVD Via device manager.
• Clone the rootAVD. link
  • Open the Directory where you have installed rootAVD
  • Open CMD in same directory
  • run rootAVD.bat ListAllAVDs to list all the Installed Android IMGs Computer (note : run rootAVD.sh ListAllAVDs if your using Linux OS)
  • Look for your android emulator ramdisk.img
    • ex: "system-images\android-31\google_apis_playstore\x86_64\ramdisk.img"

• copy the full ramdisk.img path
• run rootAVD.bat <ramdisk.img PATH>
• select option '1' to install the stable version of magisk
• Now the AVD will shutdown, you'll have to manually the start the AVD again using via Device Manager
• if the magisk app is installed then DONE
