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.

Hi guys, I am getting tired of not being able to use several banking apps, and therefore would like to unroot the phone. I've tried several hide my root apps, including RootCload and xpsosed framework without success. Would be grateful if anyone could help me to do a perm unroot. I've tried the full unroot functionality in SuperSU, but that doesn't seem to work. Are there any ADB commands or any files I can flash in order to unroot? Btw, running CyanogenMod 13 st. of Sept version.
All help greatly appreciated.

As far as I know you can't disable root access in Cyanogen, even if you turn it of in developer settings.

CM (since 12? 13?) has its own root mechanism which is built into the ROM, you can't disable that.
Ah, ok. That seems to add up, since I've tried several options to disable it. Are there any ways to hide the root that actually work? rootcloak and xposed framework didn't work for me.

Like everybody has stated: CM and root are combine
If you like unroot, then loose CM and flash Miui using fastboot

If you build with "eng" or "userdebug", yes.
If you build with "user" then no root is included, you need then SuperSU or similar to get root access back.
I have such a "user" build with own releasekeys available, if someome wants to test his apps with it, let me know.
As the title says...I'm considering doing root in my V2. I just got my replacement note an hour ago. I immediately paused the update because I read somewhere on here that once you update, you won't be able to root. I was looking forward to root till I started thinking about what types of abilities I would actually lose by rooting?
What I can think of from the top of my head is:
1) No Samsung/Android pay
2) Some games won't let you play if you're rooted.
3) Some games won't let you play if you have xPosed installed (such as Marvel Future Fight)
4) Can't do software updates to make my phone faster/fix anything that is wrong (can't I just install the software updates after installing root? Or will that just remove the root?)
5) Voids warranty
Anything else I might lose?
I'm excited for xPosed cause I need me some modules such as snapprefs, and youtube playing in the background. I also like having the ability to change things around the device and such
Is there a way to get around the "xPosed detected" in those types of games by the way?
Luckily for you, the current root does not trip knox
1) Samsung pay will not work, but with right xpose set up Android pay will. The good news is if you ever go back to stock, Samsung pay will work again (knox not tripped)
2) Some games indeed will not work, but with the right xpose app you can fix this by hiding root from it.
3)I did not know that! They getting fancy now...but I can see reason why. I guess no Marvel Future Fight for you if you have xposed than. I know you can hide root from apps, not sure you can hide xposed from apps.
4)You cannot do software update, this is true. The run around for this is to wait for a developer, or even Jovy do a deodex of the new update and you can install that while keeping your old bootloader (for root to work). There is a possible downside to this...samsung is known to make their software run very funny if you are not on the corresponding bootloader. P.S. I never recommend taking a software update while you are rooted (assuming it will even install depending on what you have frozen or block). Just dont risk it.
5) TECHNICALLY your warranty will not be voided with current root method. Knox not tripped = Warranty in place.
As you can see, you are not really loosing much.
Root cloak fixes every problem with root.

You'll lose secure folder and if you update shealth after the root process it will no longer run.

Oh yeah, I've heard about the shealth thing, just update it before you root and you'll be good It's a shame about the secure folder...:/ Anyway to go around it to be able to use it just like the shealth?
Seems like rooting will somehow cripple your device...wow times have changed.

I had heard even if you update s health before rooting once your rooted it wont open due to root.
This is the first Android device I've own that I feel no need to root. Sure I'd love to have Viper4Android running but can't justify all I'd lose to run one app that requires root.

THANK YOU for you detailed explanation, this is exactly what I was looking for! Thank you for your advice and everything Do you know what xpose app that is to hide root from games? I don't think you can hide xposed from apps though :/

I feel ya, I'm on the same boat, but I'd really enjoy some xposed modules lol. I'm an audiophile and haven't had Viper4Android since the S5 and I miss it lol
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...

I need help figuring out a way to hide root from apps like Snapchat or Pokemon go. I know there are other forums, but none that are like this issue I'm having. Magisk doesn't seem compatible with my Samsung Galaxy S8 Active, SM-G892U, as it caused some kind of issue that says to contact someone as something unauthorized was installed on the device. I can't get TWRP either, since that isn't compatible with my device anyway. RootCloak doesn't work, as it doesn't let me switch my root back on. I have nothing else to resort to. I hope there is still a way, otherwise I will unfortunately have to use another phone, or unroot. If anyone has a fix or some method, please help!
How did u achieve root
hi, i really need help right now...
im an online bike driver, in my country many online driver using fake gps to get an order...
and my online driver application can detect and kick me out of the app if the phone is rooted/location is mocked...
and i heard someone said, 'dude, you can root without root or using magisk so the app cant detect it'...
so is there a way to do that? i really need help, since my financial is nearly reach broke right now...
thanks...
MAGisk roots your phone systemlessly. root your phone using magisk and then hide your root from within the magisk manager app
