How do I hide root from Santander UK? - Magisk

Hello.
I used the Santander UK banking app quite frequently.
I recently rooted my S7 Edge (SM-G935F) with Magisk and installed LineageOS 15.1. I pass safetynet completely, Google Play says my device is certified, and, with Magisk Hide, I pass all checks in RootBeer Sample.
I have enabled Magisk Hide on the Santander UK app, force stopped it, cleared its data, and rebooted my phone.
But when I try to open it, it detects my device as rooted. Are there any ways to get around this, or will I have to use the web version?
Thanks.

You're not alone!

What is going to happen with Root and Google Playstore?

So now Netflix is out of Google Playstore, any clue how magisk going to work around this issue?
Thanks!
Most users can get Netflix, and other apps that use the same check, back by making sure SafetyNet passes (Magisk Hide), clearing data for the Play store and open it up again. A reboot is usually necessary before the apps show up and sometimes it takes a while. A few users have reported that it doesn't work, but I can consistently replicate this on a Nexus 6, Nexus 6P and a OnePlus 3T on different ROMs.
You can check in the Play store settings, at the bottom, if your device is certified or not. SafetyNet pass = certified.
Got Netflix working on the latest version with root using magisk... No problem there
Using Nexus 6p

Even if you are not able to get it through the Play Store, there are other ways to get the latest version of an app, like apkmirror. This check doesnt prevent the installation or usage of those Apps, it just hides them on the Play Store.

As long as the SafetyNet checks are okay, the store and most apps don't know about root.
The one exception to this and I can't figure it out is an application called [email protected] by Mobile Iron.
Not matter what I do, it can see the compromised status of the phone.
Also Android Wear on my watch can detect the status so Android pay on my watch won't work, not matter what I do.
Yes, I've tried Magisk Hide on just about everything.

Interesting. I never noticed that before. However I just checked and my Play Store settings says Uncertified. SafetyNet passes both basic integrity and cts profile match. Netflix appears and downloads via Play Store for me. I even cleared data on the Play Store and rebooted as suggested. Still uncertified, weird.

Interesting. Since your device can pass SafetyNet I'd expect Netflix (etc) to appear in the Play store, but from reports (and testing) you should first have to make it show as certified. Again: interesting...
About not being able to get "certified": Do you have multiuser active? If so I believe you'll have to clear Play store data for all users before it can show as certified.

Nope, just me. Can you get your play store to switch being certified or not by enabling and disabling hide? I'm wondering if I was on a ROM or something that was uncertified and it just permanently tagged my device as such?

Yes. I can 100% replicate getting my devices to certified or uncertified status by enabling or disabling Magisk Hide (passing or failing SafetyNet).

You don't get permanently tagged. My device says uncertified until I enable Magisk hide, clear play store data and reboot. What device do you have and are you using a custom kernel?
Still no go for me. SELinux is set to enforcing, USB debugging disabled, play store certified, passed safetynet, used magisk hide on every apk that had the word "Google" on it, I have rebooted, waited, clear play store data (still certified), waited some more, rebooted again, waited some more... Idk what else to do.
Idc about Nexflix. I am however concerned that other apps will use the same detection method.
It working on mine. I can download and use Netflix.
Pure Nexus.
Franco Kernel.
Magisk 12.
Passes SafetyNet and is Google Playstore Certified.
Edit:
Just clean flashed SAOSP with Franco and Magisk 12.
Still passing SafetyNet but Google Playstore now reports Uncertified. BUT! I still can see, download and use Netflix.
Checking the play store in the magisk hide list worked for me.

I'm also having this issue on my OnePlus One running unofficial Lineage build. Device shows certified, safetynet passes, magisk hide etc..... still wont show up.
however, for my Nexus 7 tablet running the official lineage build configured the same way, it shows up..

I have the same situation with my Droid Turbo, I am on latest ROM for my device, MM 6.01 with a kernel to hide unlocked boot. I am on Magisk V12, Safetynet passes, I can see Netflix in playstore, I can also use Android Pay it is functional. Yet Google Playstore says uncertified.
Edit: I cleared playstore cash, rebooted, same result. I added playstore to hidden programs, rebooted same result.
i am on ROM Tesla with Arsenix Kernel on my Oneplus X and passing safety net with Magisk 13 (BETA) and also getting verified in play store can download Netflix but if i start it it says uncompatible with your device. Any suggestions ? should i try Magsik 12 ?
I am also experiencing this.
My OnePlus One running Sultan's unofficial lineageOS with magisk v13 passes safetynet, it also shows certified in google play, android pay works, etc.... but no netflix in gogole play....
My Nexus 7, rooted with magisk v13, it does show up.
My OnePlus 5, official OOS with magisk v13 passes safetynet, it also shows certified in google play, android pay, etc..... it DID have netflix, HOWEVER.... I played around a bit with different magisk versions and the latest magisk beta was not passing safetynet.... I wiped my phone and went back to using my previous setup but now no mater what I do, I can't get netflix to show back up.
I'm going to agree with others saying that their device gets flagged, because I believe this is what I am also experiencing with my OP5
EDIT: I cleared play store cache/data (which I have already been doing) and then restarted the phone before going back into the play store, that seemed to fix it for my OP5
I used to find netflix with magisk hide now it dont show anymore even through my safatynet is bypassed and phone is showing certified on playstore ...... Cleaned everything and restarted my phone múltiple times yet no netflix... Anyboby got a fix?

There is always apkpure. An alternative to playstore with updates. That's how I got netflix back after my last clean flash since I forgot to back it up
NOt really a problem but Magisk Hide is on and SafetyNet check is a pass, but my play store shows uncertified.
I can still download Netflix and use it like normal.
EDIT; Clearing Play Store data seemed to fix it

Having a problem with a game running even though I pass safetynet

So as you see from the pics I attached, I clearly am passing safetynet. I even downloaded an extended safetynet checker and pass all checks. My issue is that when I try playing Pokemon go, it almost immediately can tell I'm rooted and closes out. Does anyone know any other way the app can be checking my device integrity? My gPay and play store both are fooled and can't see root but Pokemon can somehow? If anyone has any ideas, please let me know. Thanks
Review this: https://www.xda-developers.com/pokemon-go-aggressive-root-checking-twrp-folder/
Assuming you're using magisk you have to make sure a few hides have been done, mainly the renaming of magisk(can be done through it's settings). Also you have to make sure no files in your internal storage have magisk in the name, even though pogo doesn't have storage access they are using a loophole to check file names. Hiding the root access for pogo is also a good thing too.

Issue: Using NFC for Payments (rooted)

Hi everyone, I've been seeking for a solution before posting here, didn't want to bother anyone or clutter the web, but as a last resort...
My device is rooted, props successfully installed and set. Banking app works, Netflix and even McDonald's (which I've tested because i had a cts issue) which is now solved.
The issue now is that i want to activate payments using NFC, but when i open my bank app and try to activate the toggle it shows this error:
"your smartphone does not meet the requirements to use NFC payments.
HCE_INIT_ACTIVATION/ERROR_SECURITY_TRC"
It's not a big issue, but if there is a work around. I would like to know.
Good you have an option alternative to Google Pay in first place (you are probably not in US, right?). I recently has similar question posted on reddit without much success. Let's see what audience will propose here.
Yes indeed i'm from Europe and I'm not using G-Pay because i think every bank here have their own toggle in their apps to activate or deactivate the option: "pay with your smartphone."
I'm also pretty doubtful as to whether there is a solution to this error, however my fingers are crossed.

There was same case in US 3-5 years ago and then Google Pay took over and now none of the banks supports its own payment feature in app
Did you check Xposed? There are modules to bypass root check in some European banks available, may be at least on will work.
That's some pretty bad news, that means that Europe will most certainly follow soon enough...
I have not tried Xposed or EdXposed yet, I'll look into it tomorrow and try it out depending on the info.
Question; Does Magisk pass the safety test on your device?
Can you find Netflix on the Playstore? = basicIntegrity
Can you use the McDonald's app? = ctsProfile
I'm curious about your case too.
Even when your bank does not support Google Pay yet, you can use PayPal and they draft the payment from your bank account. Or open an additional account with a bank supporting GPay.

What is this application you are using? Can you provide a link to google play store? And one more question, do you have to register to the banking application to add a card and see this error

Yes this is an app of the bank I'm customer of, so you need to be a customer there and have a bank account and a card, plus a card reader to login to the app at first. Which all works as it should, however the NFC "tap to pay" option doesn't work. Due to the error mentioned above. Also apps such as "it's me" also don't work. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=be.bmid.itsme&hl=nl&gl=BE
When I'm off work, I'll try EdXposed.

I've tried EdXposed along with it's modules flashed through Magisk. No luck at all.
However EdXposed does show the NFC app in the blacklist which Magisk doesn't.
My banking app doesn't seem to know that the device is rooted until it asks me to turn on NFC.
Ehh idk...

Safetynet fail

Hello,
today my phone suddenly wrote to me that it is no longer possible to use google pay.
Phone Pixel 5. Stock firmware.
Google pay reports that the device is certified.
I use magical canary 23001. I have the safetynet fix module installed.
Google pay does not work. And magisk reports an error when verifying the safetynet.
Any help please?
Just to say that the same occurred to me on a Oneplus 8 pro: Google Pay says the phone is not safe and Safetynet fails with basicintegrity (-), ctsProfile (-) and evaltype = basic. The cause seems to have been a Google Pay update two days ago (or, more probably, Google Play Services or the like, since I had disabled Google Pay updates). I have universal safetynet fix and magiskhide props config installed. If anyone could help, I'd appreciate. Let me know if I have to post more information. Thanks
UPDATE - A guy on Reddit says he fixed it by uninstalling EdXposed. Actually, I had that module and removed it and now I seem to pass the safetynet test, although Google Pay still has some issues (I will try cleaning data and cache, and possibly do the same to Google Play Services, I am also trying to put Google Services Framework under Magiskhide...). He says LSPosed (instead of EdXposed) should be fine, which it apparently is.

Thanks for this update. Was having the same issue on my OP6T. I had already eyed at switching to a different Xposed clone since this keeps occuring every few weeks. Maybe now is a good time as ever.
Great. Thanks you so much.

Magisk, Google play and banking app

Hello,
my Oneplus 7+ is running stock Android 11. Magisk has been installed and since a month ago everything was working fine (even DKB TAN2go and other banking apps). Last month an update for Comdirects Photo TAN was released and it stopped working. Luckily I was not the only one to encounter it and the description from @ralphabt here solved the issue for me.
Since this morning Google Pay stopped working (of couse I only noticed when I tried to pay and had my wallet nearby). SafetyNet fails (basic and cts). If I disabled the modules that I installed for the PhotoTan fix, SafetyNet is working again.
I found the MagiskHide Props Config, which I don't have a problem installing and testing, but I was wondering if there anything else I can try before fixing an issues that is caused by a solution for another issue.
Thanks a lot!
If SafetyNet now triggers from the Riru/EdXposed stuff you'll likely have to wait for an update to those modules (or try the latest beta/alpha/canary releases). Or try LSPosed instead (seems like more people have success with that). It's a cat and mouse game...
Im still waiting for anyone to give me a valid reason to use Xposed of any sort....
I pulled it out recently after jettisoning Xposed back in Marshmallow days, and was completely unsurprised that in my attempts to avoid root detection when i was having bank app issues it just broke things harder
Your biggest issue is getting SafetyNet pass...
Getting Google Pay and banking apps is another level...
My current setup for working bank apps (my bank at least) and working Samsung Pay & Google Pay is, should you wish to have a crack:
Magisk Alpha - here (second most recent at time of posting) or here for latest:
Riru - here
Riru-Momohider - my own mod of that module attached to my post here (where i just added creation of the 4 optional config options to the installations script, to avoid manual jiggery pokery, touching 4 files in a terminal every ROM flash didnt seem like a fun thing after the 3 ROMS i tested that week i started using Riru-Momohider)
Im talking those are the only modules i use. Even a simple font replacement module will give up a system modification to most root detection apps. So no fonts, no emojis swapping, no fiddly shizz. Keep it simple.
You can get an idea of what may be setting things off via Magisk Detector here, or VD Infos here (apologies to Didge, as mentioning that may be a trigger )
And i now get to tell you that this only currently works on 2 ROM's for my device, all the others cough up the existence of root through modifications made by devs to build.prop etc
So even in the best circumstances, and with all the right magisk and riru modules, the ROM youre using can still betray you.
Isnt that fun?
Worth pointing out (so frequently am i pointing this out these days im thinking of removing the link to my GPay Magisk Module from my sig) that for like 6 months now its been unnecessary for a lot of people to
a) Use the Google Pay db fix originally sussed out by @BostonDan, or my Magisk Module that does the same thing
and
b) Enable MagiskHide for Google Pay...
Actually getting SafetyNet is rather easy - if I remove EdXposed and XPrivacyLua it is working again and Google Pay as well. I only installed (my only reason) it, as it was required to get that banking app running.
I am using different banking apps and it the past the one from german DKB was rather difficult, but with newest Magisk (23) and Magisk Hide it is working.
