Genshin Impact

Workaround Required
GamingRoot: Magisk StableNo Integrity Attestation

  1. Configure WSA Advanced Settings > Graphics Architecture to dedicated GPU (DirectX 12) with at least 6 GB of allocated VRAM.
  2. Set in-game graphics preset to 'Low' or 'Medium' with 30/45 FPS cap for thermal stability.

Google Play Services

com.google.android.gms
Workaround Required
Utilities & ToolsRoot: Magisk StablePlay Integrity Required
Known Note: Hardware-backed attestation is unavailable, so BASIC_INTEGRITY is the ceiling; some apps (banking, DRM-heavy) hard-fail on that requirement.
View Workaround Steps (4)
  1. Included by default in every Emberbird edition (Pico GApps).
  2. On Magisk builds, keep Play Services out of optimization by disabling battery restrictions for the app.
  3. Play Integrity attestation passes only in the MEETS_BASIC_INTEGRITY tier; apps requiring DEVICE or STRONG verdicts remain blocked.
  4. Do not manually update GMS Core from outside the Play Store; mismatched versions break push notifications.

Utilities & ToolsRoot: Magisk StablePlay Integrity Required

View Workaround Steps (3)
  1. Included by default in every Emberbird edition (Pico GApps).
  2. Sign in with a Google account after first boot; initial sync can take several minutes.
  3. If device certification warnings appear, re-check that Play Services is up to date inside the subsystem.

Netflix

Streaming & MediaRoot: Magisk StablePlay Integrity Required

View Workaround Steps (3)
  1. Use a Magisk root build with DenyList configured to hide root from the Netflix app.
  2. Expect reduced maximum playback resolution; HD (1080p) streams are gated by Widevine L1, which WSA does not provide.
  3. If playback fails after app updates, clear the app data and re-authenticate.
