root and using payment apps? - Huawei P10 Questions & Answers

Hello,
rooted my P10 (unlock Bootloader, flashed twrp and magisk) successfully. In the past i used some payment apps for paying iwht NFC. After root now it is not possibe. For example i will use Glase (Payment app to pay in Stores and so on where NFC is available) and want to pay with NFC it says "Service not available" or rooted phone and so on. Tried to use Magisk Hide but it won´t work. Does anyone have a solution? I don´t want to uninstall Magisk anytime or remove root permanently.
Thanks

Magisk hide not working with my bank app BT Pay.

Hi!
I just installed my bank app on my rooted phone and I can't access it at all. It says that my device could be rooted and I should uninstall the app. It didn't worked when my phone was unrooted but with the bootloader unlocked.
Here is the app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ro.btrl.pay&hl=en

Will removing magisk stop other apps detecting root on my xz1 compact?

I have magisk 20.4 and magisk manager 8 installed on my phone. Magisk passes safetynet but some apps are still able to detect root and do not work.
I am planning to give my phone to my mother and buy a new model. But my mother also uses apps which can detect root on my phone and won't accept the phone If these apps don't work. If I uninstalled magisk and magisk manager will these apps stop detecting root?
Does anyone kno any way to relock bootloader and root ?

There is no way to relock the bootloader and to remove root simply reflash stock FW.

Some annoying banking apps are now detecting root - even with Magisk Hide, renaming the magisk mangaer package, etc.
Yes, going into Magisk Manager and doing a full unroot/uninstall will allow most apps to work again .

Yeah the major 1 detecting root on my phone is a banking app only.

Question Does unlocking and flashing a custom rom mess up payment apps

With google coming up with increasingly stricter policies of what deems a device safe and rise of hardware attestation for safetynet, does the note 10 face these issues, or do the payment/banking apps work fine?
I have a Samsung A51 and once my device was rooted the Samsung Pass application will not allow me to record and use any security passwords or biometric security. The application gives me a message stating that because my device is rooted I can no longer use Samsung Pass. However, I am still able to use passwords and biometrics on my bank accounts application.
Last year, I changed the firmware of the LG V35 ThinQ I had and Google Pay would not work for me.
if it comes rooted yes , you will have to hide the root otherwise wont work
Everything works fine for me. I'm using a custom rom and I'm rooted. Play store shows my device is certified, and it passes safetynet on magisk.

What is the best way to hide the root?
To hide root, enable magisk hide, and change the magisk manager to something else, like mgsk. I enable gpay in magisk hide, and even changed magisk manager to mgsk (You can use any name, but remember the name you change to), and I'm now able to access gpay. Works everytime.

unrooted device - detecting root

Hi all,
I just installed the latest stable EU rom on my Mi note 10 device. I've used TWRP and magisk 23.0. And also, I did an IMEI repair operation.
Everything was fine until I tried to install my banking app. I uninstalled magisk (on the app and using twrp). (Also, uninstall and re-install the banking app) However, still, my banking app detects the root!
What is the correct way to remove root access and get rid of root warning? (I dont need root anymore).
Thanks in advance
There are several things that an app might be looking for besides Magisk. Enabled developer options, unlocked bootloader, etc...

Question Downsides of rooting?

I received today my pixel 7 and I'm planning to root it. I wonder what are the downsides of rooting... For example, on my previous phone (oneplus 7), unlocking the bootloader would change widevine from L1 to L3... Will I lose widevine L1 if I root the Pixel 7? Will I still be able to update via OTA? Are there any other downsides which I need to be aware of before rooting? Except for google pay, which I don't use
No, you won't lose Widevine L1
Yes, you will get OTAs. However, it's failing to install on mine. Might need to unroot and install the update (I am not sure).
I can't think of any other downside.
For banking apps to work perfectly, do these:
1. Repackage to hide the Magisk app
2. Enable Zygisk in Magisk
3. Enforce DenyList in Magisk
4. Configure DenyList and check all the boxes for the apps you want to hide root access
5. Use AirFrozen to freeze Magisk (unfreeze whenever you need to grant root access to any app)
