The OnePlus 13s is a Powerful device, but if you want complete control—system-level tweaks, advanced mods, and customizations—you’ll need root access. Thanks to APatch Root, you can root the OnePlus 13s without modifying your recovery or flashing Magisk directly. This method works by patching the stock boot image from your firmware package and installing the APatch app.
