A guide on how to copy assets with Termux for RR3.

March 24, 2026

Before we begin

This guide assumes;

You already have Shizuku started and running properly. If it isn't, go and start it.

Termux is installed from F-Droid. Not Play Store.

The com.ea.games.r3_row folder unpacked under your Downloads folder in internal storage.

Also another folder called "rish-loc" in your internal storage.

Guide

Installing required Termux packages

Run this, we will use them later;

pkg install nano

Also, set up Termux internal storage access;

termux-setup-storage

Now comes the tricky part. We need to export and use the Shizuku's rish binary, and also edit it before running it. Open Shizuku, and click this:

shizuku-terminal

Export it to the "rish-loc" folder we created in the internal storage. Go back to Termux. And run this:

cp -r ~/storage/shared/rish-loc ~/

This copies the exported files to Termux' internal storage. Now, we need to edit the rish file to allow it to work with Termux. Run:

nano ~/rish-loc/rish

You will see a line, looking like this, towards the end:

[ -z "$RISH_APPLICATION_ID" ] && export RISH_APPLICATION_ID="PKG"

Replace the PKG in quotes with com.termux, resulting in:

[ -z "$RISH_APPLICATION_ID" ] && export RISH_APPLICATION_ID="com.termux"

Save and quit(CTRL+X, Y, Enter).

Now, let's actually get into Shizuku's elevated rish shell. Run:

cd ~/rish-loc && sh rish

This will give you a popup from Shizuku asking if you want to allow Termux to use elevation. Allow it. Now we are in Shizuku's elevated shell and can copy content easily, skipping Android 11+'s SAF limits that ZArchiver faces with. To copy the whole RR3 data folder we have in downloads to the proper location, run:

cp -r /sdcard/Download/com.ea.games.r3_row /sdcard/Android/data/

Do not type com.ea.games.r3_row at the second argument. You're copying an entire folder. Typing it would mean having nested folders(/sdcard/Android/data/com.ea.games.r3_row/com.ea.games.r3_row). And wait until it stops without any output. Yes, this is normal. It won't show you a progress bar. This should take from 5 minutes to 30 depending on the device.

And that's it, you copied the data folder using Termux instead of ZArchiver.
