Jailbreak Tool
A Jailbreak Tool is a program or method used to unlock full (root) access to a device's system by exploiting vulnerabilities in the firmware.
With root access, you gain complete control over the device, allowing deeper changes than normally possible.
However, root access alone does not enable full development capabilities — you still need to perform additional setup steps, such as using the go2_firmware_tools.
Jailbreak via Custom RootFS
Jailbreaking via Custom RootFS means replacing the system's root filesystem (RootFS) with a custom-built version.
This is usually done by connecting the device to a computer via USB Type-C and using a tool like rkdeveloptool.
The custom RootFS provides immediate root access with default credentials: root:theroboverse.
Important: while root access is enabled, development features are still not activated by default. You must perform extra steps, typically using go2_firmware_tools, to fully enable development mode.
Custom Package
A Custom Package is an additional package that can be installed on a device that already has root access (either through a jailbreak tool or a custom RootFS).
It is installed via go2_firmware_tools and comes with development features already enabled.
