Zero root setup required in those cases, until now. Create the emulator, adb shell, su, mount tmpfs, write your CA certificates.
You can script it and do the whole process in <1 second on a fresh device.
- franga2000 3y agoEmulators are a whole different story, I didn't realise that's what you were talking about. But emulators are a very niche use-case and they're already running modified images, so they could easily include a way to write certs. The most important (at least from my perspective) uses of custom CAs are done on real devices though, which have always needed a lot of work to modify, so little changes there.
