Is your device was rooted ?

If your cell phone is. Root, using termux with root is dangerous, it wasn't his fault

To anyone coming across this, don't use sudo/su. Termux is a user app, all data is in the user space, you're not accessing Android's system files. I was wondering why su commands were failing then I realized my mistake.

On Termux website it's clearly written to use Termux GUI on Device with Android Version A9 or Above... Broo it's your fault...You should read and research well before doing anything.

This is no longer a supported Android version for Termux, and this issue is unrelated to the installation of termux-desktop which does not include any su / tsu commands nor does it install any root packages.

Please note that actions that you commit as a root user are your responsibility as they imply knowledge over the affected system.

If you are still able to access your phone's recovery, you're still able to reinstall Android. This depends from phone to phone and unfortunately I am not familiar with particular steps to root and flash a Pixel phone. Maybe if you look up your phone model on XDA forums you may find a solution to do so and getting back to your device. Furthermore I highly recommend frequent backups if you're rooting your phone (and experimenting with superuser actions), from personal experience.

Having this said, suggesting to close this issue since it's irrelevant to this repo (there are no root packages or actions handled)
