A: ReTerminal targets the latest Android API, which enforces W^X (Write XOR Execute) restrictions. This means files downloaded or created in regular app directories can't be executed directly. However, Shizuku provides access to /data/local/tmp, which has executable permissions. ReTerminal uses this to bypass the restriction and allow running binaries.
A: This happens because ReTerminal runs on the latest Android API, which enforces W^X restrictions — meaning files can either be writable or executable, but not both. Since files in $PREFIX or regular storage directories can't be executed directly, you need to use one of the following workarounds:
If you're trying to run a binary (not a script), you can use the dynamic linker to execute it:
$LINKER /absolute/path/to/binary- 32-bit:
LINKER=/system/bin/linker - 64-bit:
LINKER=/system/bin/linker64
✅ Note: This method won't work for statically linked binaries (binaries without external dependencies).
If you're trying to execute a shell script, simply use sh to run it:
sh /path/to/scriptThis bypasses the need for execute permissions since the script is interpreted by the shell.
If you have Shizuku installed, you can gain shell access to /data/local/tmp, which has executable permissions. This is the easiest way to run binaries without restrictions.
- Login as the shell user:
sh $PREFIX/bin/rish- Move your binary to
/data/local/tmp(which has execute permissions):
mv /path/to/binary /data/local/tmp- Grant execute permissions:
chmod +x /data/local/tmp/binary- Execute your binary:
cd /data/local/tmp
./binarySupport it by giving a star ⭐
