MAGisk roots your phone systemlessly. root your phone using magisk and then hide your root from within the magisk manager app

[Q] Banking Apps/Barclays PingIT

Hi. Can anyone confirm for me whether UK banking apps Barclays App/PingIT, LloydsTSB app will continue to work on a rooted HTC One?
I believe they will fail to work as they will detect the rooted status and call this a security issue, am I correct?
Thanks
yes, you are correct, they will not work with root.
Some have had success in hiding root to run the app, then unhiding afterwards, but for me that's a lot of hassle just to use the bank app when I can use the mobile web page, you may feel otherwise.
I do.. Barclays web takes about 4 codes to log in including one from either the card code unit or from the phone app.
The phone app needs just one 5 digit code and you are in and of course PingIT is a phone only tool and very useful.
then have a look at this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2360142 and give it a go
i think superSU has a hide option? unlike superuser. so you could try that. i was using that to hid root from some games that disabled themselves when they detected root.
barclays app was working on my rooted 4.1.2. it stopped working when i upgraded to 4.2.2.
Yep, same thing happened to me, i managed to get an old apk of the app, so it's working again. Thought i could do the same with pingit, but didnt complete, Message appeared saying update to the latest version. Only a matter of time before the online banking app does the same.
Uninstal the barclays app first then download temp root remover from the playstore. Temporary remove root instal the app and you are good to go then..
I did the like that but you might be comprising your bank account details if using on root. Thats what rumours are all about..

[Q]hiding root on Lollipop 5.1.1

Hi Guys, I know a lot of people here on xda cannot go on their daily lives without root on their phone, but there are these pain in the bottom applications that refuse to run when root is detected. my only means of hiding root back then was using an xposed module, may I know if someone else have an idea on how to hide root from apps? thanks in advance!~
SuperSU Pro has the option that works for some apps. Not sure if it is in the standard version.
Best solution is to boycott HBO.
root cloak still works with 5.1.1. you can find it here in the forums. get the latest alpha version and it should work.

Help using baking app finding non-existing root

banking app, not baking app, f**ks sake
Hello there. I have been using stock android 7.1.1 for a while and decided to try using roms again (Pure Nexus). One of the apps that i need is "Vipps" its a Norwegian banking app used to transfer money to friends and stuff, but its notorious for finding root. I used to use xposed and root cloak on android 6, but i know well it dosent work with 7. Magisk dosent hide it, suhide dosent hide it.
After installing Vipps it rejects opening promting me with "Vipps does not support rooted devices". Only thing is its running a ROM that comes with no root.
- Cheers, Kristiansja
edit: root checker doesn't find annything either

Go into the root settings and remove root. Mind you this cause some of the features of the rom to stop working. Apps like that are not only looking for root but also for unlocked bootloaders. So if those apps are important to you then might want to stick to a fully stock set up and relock your bootloader.

Go into developer option and turn off USB debugging. After that, reboot the phone and see if Vipps is working. If that doesn't work, I have one more suggestion.
It's probably checking ro.build.tags and/or ro.build.type. These are set to test-keys and userdebug on PN (if I remember correctly) and some apps need them to be set to release-keys and user. It could also be looking for other prop values and possibly also busybox (also included in PN, I believe).
Or BusyBox...

Help with uninstalling xposed please

I have xposed installed without a custom recovery by using Flashfire but Flashfire doesn't seem to be working without the paid version and I can't pay for it now because the app closes down for non paid users and the only way to pay for it is through getting onto the app. Can anyone help me out with this predicament? Is there any way for me to flash xposed uninstaller without flashfire or is there a way I can get flashfire pro that you know of? I can't make a custom recovery.
But you managed to use Flashfire to install Xposed?
So what changed between installing Xposed and now trying to uninstall it? Any new apps installed that might interfere with Flashfire?

Sorry, I should have added more detail I wrote this late at night.
I have an S7 and I'm using stock Marshamallow. Basically, you can use flashfire to flash the xposed installer zip and install exposed and when you want to uninstall it you just have to flash the uninstall zip and so on. I usually repeat this about once every 3 months to log in / out of Snapchat. However, Flashfire no longer works for non paying customers and the only way to become a paying customer is to get onto the Flashfire app and pay for pro. But, as soon as you open up the Flashfire app it checks for pro and closes down when it detects you aren't a pro member. So I'm stuck at the minute and have no way of uninstalling it without wiping my phone which I can't do yet. I was wondering if anyone knew a work around for this problem.
That's right... The freeloader time bomb went off a couple of weeks ago.
I believe some users have had success with setting their device time back to the end of March and then purchasing Pro.
Free loader lol. I didn't know the app even had a pro version I have only ever used it for a few seconds to flash a zip. They could have sent out a warning and earned a few extra £ ?. Do you have a link or guide to something that shows me how to roll back date and get onto flash fire to buy pro? I'm very amateurish on this I have no idea how I haven't bricked my phone yet. I'll have to put a back up on my pc. If I brick my phone how would I fix that by the way? Just factory reset from pressing the pin in and then get the back up from pc?
Anyone?
You can usually change the time and date in the Android settings.
For help and info on how to keep your device up and running, it's usually best to look for info in your device's forum. There's usually a guide section with stickied collections of info to use.
Thanks, I've worked out how to use date, anyone have a link or something on how to find the correct flash fire apk I need? I can't find anything on Google
You know that XDA has a pretty nifty search function as well, right?

Question How do I hide root from certain apps?

Hey, I rooted my phone just yesterday, and today I went to musescore just to see that they for whatever reason don't allow rooted phones to use their app?
So I tried enabling zygisk, DenyList, and I added musescore to the denylist and restarted my phone, but somehow musescore still knows that I'm rooted.
Is it possible that vbmeta is somehow related? if so then what file exactly am I supposed to flash as vbmeta (I use custom ROM).
If not, then what can I do to hide root from the app?

After force deny list did you've deleted caches of google play and google services and reboot? check also google play store inside settings if certified, if certified then it should work for your app too.
Maybe try installing Universal SafetyNet Fix?

And some applications can be extra finicky. LIke for me, Google Pay always takes its time to get persuaded about not being rooted. Also there might be other components either of this app or for system apps that might need hiding. I would generally try following guides for making banking apps work.

I'm not familiar with that app, but I know that some apps also check for the presence of the Magisk Manager app. If you've already tried Zygisk and the deny list, then another thing to do would be to hide the Magisk app. It the Magisk Manager, go to Settings > Hide Magisk app.
What worked for me is installing Insular ( from Fdroid) and then clone the App that complains about root to the work environment.
I just downloaded musescore and installed it. It hasn't detected root on my phone. I use Shamiko to hide root. Get Fox's magisk module manager from fdroid. Then use it to install Shamiko. Make sure you turn off Enforce Denylist in magisk so Shamiko can enforce the deny list. Hide the magisk app using the feature in magisk. It works for me.

Oh yes I can't seem to open musescore too even with safety net pass. But it is because I am using MicroG. I tried it on my other phone with Play Services and it works fine with hidden root (shamiko and magisk disabled) and safety net pass.

I use MicroG as well. I can load the app and use it, I just can't subscribe because it requires GSF to make payment.

You can open it right? But can you select and open a random piano piece or something like that. For me, the piece loads up then detects something (root, safety net idk) then just tells me I can't for root reasons. I tried using shamiko too and all the root hiding methods I know and I still couldn't open a piece. It does load the main menu for me too on MicroG+patch playstore but can't open the contents.
It's been roughly a month. Has anyone found a fix for this issue yet? There was discussion about the issue here where a dev 'fixed' the app for someone with a rooted phone. However I cant tell what the dev did because all his messages are deleted, for all I know he could of shared an apk or something, guess I'll never know. I've decided to try to get in contact with one of the people whose issue managed to get fixed, although I don't know if he'll ever respond. Apparently in the forum, he told the dev that he assumed the block was intentional. Maybe this could hint us towards a fix because maybe the block doesn't target rooted users?

If thats the case then perhaps the app isin't checking for root? Theres no way musescore has more sophisticated anti-root software than some banking apps out there. Perhaps it's detecting the os that the user uses instead? I can confirm this because my samsung s7 edge with the same lineage os version as my Xiaomi doesn't want to play any scores either. This issue also happens to people who have no custom rom or even no root, it has to do with the os that you use rather than being an issue with root.
So what, did I type 2 paragraphs on a one month old forum just to rant? No. I will find the issue (well, I already found the reason in the text above), and I will try to fix it, not by making any workarounds such as cloning the app but getting the app to reliably work on a rooted / custom rom phone.
EDIT: Maybe using something to spoof the OS to make apps think it's a different OS?
POTENTIAL FIX: So in new versions of magisk, the developer decided to remove magiskhide. Turns out that having magiskhide turned on makes musescore actually be able to function. I tested this on my samsung s7 edge (didn't want to brick my Xiaomi phone by accident just yet and it worked. However I labelled this 'POTENTIAL' as downgrading magisk isin't really a plausible fix and could still be considered a workaround.

Its not opening for me because I'm using MicroG. Like banking apps, MuseScore checks for specific Play Services version. Since microg uses idk android4.4 play services, it will fail to load any Banking Apps or apps of the same kind that uses that check regardless of root 'cause that version's too old and a potential for security. For the OS check, I guess it does check it too. I tried on two emulators and both failed to load a piece as well (might be because of safetynet cuz emulators can't pass it). There are xposed and magisk modules that can spoof OS and even prevent the app from seeing user installed apps. I haven't tried that method because I switched ROM now and got MuseScore working fine even without hiding root.

Weird. I have microG and I managed to get musescore working without switching roms. All I did was use safety net fix, enabled zygisk and added it to the deny list. Tried it before and it didn't work, probably because I didn't install safetynet fix. Who knows, maybe it's related to what type of GApps you install. I guess this issue is fixed for now.
