Does anyone in the UK use any temp unroot app, so they can use Barclays app's.

It doesn't work.
Try the root cloak module in xposed, but Barclays looks for root in system so it cant be hidden
Just type Barclay's Mobile Banking Root Fix on XDA, that thread will help you a bit, I think.

does that work?... They must be a new update since I last looked, but thanks,
hoping for a root cloak for sky go as well.....
EDIT
As I thought, that wont work...its been patched in a way that will be EXTREMELY difficult to fix

Sorry, I thought that was the fix! ...but I saw now it was dropped...all 3 methods are broken..
I'd be very interested to know why they don't allow root users use of the app. Anyone any ideas?

Its a potential security risk as root means you can see sensitive data within the app, or personal data
Its to protect the customer

That makes sense, seems a bit overkill but if it's for the customers benefit then it's all good. I'm with TSB sadly, but their app works on rooted handsets.

How often does the app check for root? What if the app was installed on stock and then you rooted? Could the app be modded from that point? Or a previous version be used instead?

Lol its about as safe as using a desktop. Root is like administration rights on Windows app. Besides all other banking apps don't have the same restrictions why only Barclay's?
There is no perfect justification for what they are doing.
Besides using Barclays on desktop regardless of platform is more dangerous that root on phone. On your phone atleast you know what app is doing what and you can stop it. On desktop you don't know what app you've installed and what's it doing.
yup owns Z1 and stuff.

I run stock, but, I'm rooted and s-off, main reason is WiFi tether, after that is just to fix little bugs here and there, the awesome devs here usually fix them before HTC even knows about them..

I always root for wifi tether and ad blockers. Usually run stock roms.
The "gain" quite simply is root access to be able to run certain apps that u cant run without root. Some people take it further than others. Your not gunna change the world if u root your phone

Root =
Wi-Fi tether
Remove bloat ware (Sprint apks)
Ad blockers
Create backup
Prevent ota (so you can do them as you choose)
Kicks / customization
The sky is the limit
Root = more options.

I'm still rooted with kingo. Until they find something definitively wrong with it I don't feel like going through the hassle of wiping my phone and starting from scratch.
I had already rooted using it. As soon as they come out with an actual reason to not use it I'll unroot immediately. Until then I'm fine with a working root .
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N900A using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
nope not after what happened with me
i think there is something up with kingo. i had some weird issues with it when i tried it. for one i couldnt get the custom icon off the screen no matter what i did with kingo root. kingo root kept stuff running in the back ground which i didnt like at all. all my firewall and antivirus software went crazy and flagged, blocked, and deleted it right away. i went back to the first root method with root de la vega and after the first try my custom icon is gone and nothing is flagged or suspicious
I'm still using it. It's working perfectly and flawlessly for me. Until I see hard evidence I don't see a point in switching especially since I do not want to wipe. If I get bored and decide to re flash for the hell of it I'll use de la Vega obviously but as of now I'm content.

I had Kingo until all this stuff about it being dangerous. My phone ran great with it but I got kinda freaked out.

I am still using it, as soon as the Kingo thread got locked I contacted Kingo on their website and emailed back and forth a few times about security and XDA concerns. I was more than satisfied with their openness and response. BTW this thread will probably be locked since there have been about 10 Kingo threads in the past few days.

You honestly think that if they are up to something like planning some crazy malware attack that they would just up and tell you and not lie about it and be super friendly? That said. I'm still rooted with it. I won't recommend anyone to use it until everything Is situated though just to possibly save someone in the future.

Kingo devs immediately contacted XDA admins and are already working on a new version of the app that conforms to XDA standards (see the last modpost here). They also responded immediately to my concerns with exactly what information was collected and what it was used for. In my opinion, they are not "planning some crazy malware attack". I mean there is always a chance, but there is a chance in anything custom you do to your phone, you just have to gather all the information and weigh your options. Then make your own decision on it.

You misunderstand the purpose of asking them for an explanation. It was not done in the expectation of a confession if the software had indeed been malicious. Rather, it was done to find out if a plausible, benign reason for the IMEI behavior exists. And their reply does offer such a reason. In fact, it's difficult to think of a plausible HARMFUL use of the IMEI.

Understood and agreed. I'm just going by the thoughts of how evil everyone thinks they are. Yes it's shady they were collecting data but oh well. And like you said, what could they possibly do with that data anyway.

same here, sticking with it, and used their app to root my LG G Pad 8.3 (literally just released) and it's running great.
I was using it for a quick minute but have since moved on..
I'm still using it and it appears to be running great. I've not received any hard evidence that it is anything but good rooting software.
Dose the kingo install any apps on the phone beside the su and the supersu?
If it collect the IMEI what is the point from formatting/unrooting or flashing the phone? It already done!!
(Q) Can't remove custom status after running Kingo root.
I have used Kingo root, installed exposed installer and Wanam exposed, changed to fake system status but cannot rid the device of Custom status. Did I miss something?
TIA
Guys, my computer detected kingo as a backdoor virus. Please please please get off of kingo and use root de la vega. Because if you dont I gaurantee you something bad will happen to your computer and phone .Just my 1.2 million cents.

With the changes Google made in security I doubt we will see much if any root exploits like towel root or one click root apps. This is mostly a good thing
No it is not.
Can I root my note and tether more than 5gb? If so I'd wanna do a stock root.
If you have an unlimited plan you can Tether unlimited but only then. I believe there is even a way to do it without root not sure though
Yes i have unlimited but on the tethering app it tracks and only allows 5gb
Sure can, here's the guide bud.

If you don't want to pay for an app, then at least give the devs enough respect to look through the ROMs currently available to find one that works for you. There are several in the forum that have the feature you want already baked in.

Consider editing your thread to "[Q] If you're rooted, can you tether more than 5GB?".
I don't mean to sound mean, but when you don't pay attention to what you write, you end up confusing people.
One of my sons deleted the other's profile in the Magic Timer app (Oral B/Disney). Is there a way to recovery the data without root? I might even consider with root, but I'm a little nervous, being on Republic Wireless rooting my X2.
I'm really tempted to root my phone since it seems many of the recovery programs seen to require it, but I'm not sure if they'll actually do what I need to have done.

Sometimes the app keeps data of users on the own carpets the app creates when you install it. To access that carpets you need root.

I subscribed to the forum of Moto X 2014 and I can see all the topics as a list. But you need to see the post in a PC because you will need to download some files and flash it via fast boot.... Long story short, you can't root your phone via some app or something look me that.
