Cannot get snapprefs working

I was hoping that I could get some insight here on the Nexus forum for an issue I'm having w/ xposed. I did post this over there but the thread for snapprefs has been closed. Any insight would be appreciated.
I cannot get snapprefs working in snapchat. I have been trying to get this to work for the last couple of days w/ no luck. I am running about 8 other modules in xposed w/ no issues. The first time I started from scratch yesterday, I removed all modules & only have snapprefs enabled currently. But what I have tried is completely removing xposed/installer (Framework: xposed-v80-sdk23-arm/installer: 3.0 alpha4) & both apps then starting from scratch. Even using past versions of SP & SC made no difference. I am attaching a logcat from xposed. The only other things worth mentioning is that my device is encrypted & I am not running a current version of Pure Nexus(I'm on ver-6.0.1-20160103 w/ stock kernal)but I wouldn't think these would make a difference since my other modules are working. So any help would be appreciated. Let me know if more information is needed.
Thanks!!

The thread was closed because any question you may have has already been answered. Snapprefs works fine on mine. Every rom I have have tried. Mind you I don't have mine encrypted as there really is no point.
Your issue from that log is the wrong version of Snapchat. The last version supported Is 9.21.1. So you will have to use that version and not update.
Also do not post the same thing across different threads.
Had you followed directions you would have been fine.

Thank you, zelendel & sincere apologies man. I can't believe I overlooked that. Such an easy fix. Doh!

I don't use Snapchat but when I set it up for a friend I had an issue. If you have xposed framework installed, Snapchat will not login. You have to flash the xposed uninstaller in recovery. Then reboot and login to Snapchat. Once you successfully login then reboot and reinstall xposed and you will be good to re set up your other modules and snapprefs. Just a heads up and good luck.

No prob, but to be honest it's questions like that the dev had me close the thread.
Glad you got it working.

I completely understand & feel like a tool cuz I get annoyed when I come across it on the forum. I have been a member for a few years & not that anyone wants to look at my history but if you did, the few posts that I have made, were made after much reading, searching & as relevant as possible. Won't happen again. Thanks!

Viper4android Android 11??

There is viper4android for android11 or I need to wait?

Based on the research I've done we'll have to wait. There was an update to the magisk module September 12th but based on the change log it doesn't pertain to Android 11.
I wasn't able to enable tethering or install viper therefore I rolled back to 10 and will continue to monitor.

Thanks ?

Just tried this and it does seem to be working. Haven't fully tested it yet though. But I didn't bootloop and viper seems to work. Pixel 3a XL on Android 11. Rooted with Magisk Canary, e66b0bf3 (20425).

This worked for me the first time. Pretty much flash/reboot and you're done... no separate APK, no extra reboot to install the driver. I'm somewhat amazed.

I can only imagine that whoever made this ZIP removed the need for the driver? I'm not quite sure either. But I scanned it for any malware or viruses and it is cleaned. Worked on the first flash and no bootloop so it seems to be legit.

I found mention of alpha versions of Viper being released elsewhere... I assume this is a product of that. I took a look at the scripts and it does mention moving native libraries around to various places and the embedded APKs and misc files looked similar to what I'd expect from the Android 10 version. It was just nice that the Magisk script did everything in one go instead of having to follow order-sensitive instructions with other Magisk modules then retrying the driver install until it stuck.
That said, the alpha thread said it cannot be used with the audio modification library module... bootloops to having your sim cards not be detected were reported until only Viper was installed.
Here is the alpha release post: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=83525879&postcount=4371
The YouTube link has a matching CRC to this one.

I flashed this one, but it's distorting my external speakers and is buggy, but it does process...so BE CAREFUL. This will get you there until a more stable version is out.

Comdirect photoTAN app detecting root

Since version 8.3.0 additional measures to detect root have been added, do not update as MagiskHide won't be able to prevent detection. Until a solution is found I would recommend staying on the previous version for as long as possible.
Finding out what exactly is causing the root detection is beyond my technical abilities but I would provide as much information needed to those willing to help.

Update: December 14th 2021 - Method no longer sufficient

The solution found by @pxrave appears to be working:
pxrave said:
Hey fellas I got it working and others apps detect magisk before.
Update to latest v23
Install modules riru and riru unshare
Remove data from tan app
Go to magisk hide and tick all process to hide included the isolated
Start the tan app and do the activation again.
Problem you need wait 2 days to activate because comdirect use new activation process for photo tan app.
Working fine all version 8.3

also stcpay yesterday is updated to 1.6 and started to detect my magisk canary (22105)

I can confirm what swour says.
on Android 9 and 11, my magisk root is recognized, magiskhide is active and the phototan app is added.

Yes this is a serious problem. I used xposed magisk and x privacy... Latest comdirect tan app detect all...

+1

+1 big issue for me

Only solution I found (for now): Go back to version 8.2.1 using a backup or any mirror, e.g. https://downloadapk.net/comdirect-photoTAN-App.html
Unfortunately you need to register again then

I have already applied the update. The easiest method is to wait few days for a magisk fix, right? I would can wait few days, no problem. I have an absolutly clean Android 8.1 build on the phone for banking. It's crazy that the bank is make it so difficult for us to use a save own build.

Perhaps that is too optimistic. I doubt that one app is of great interest

Until the new root detection is also available for other apps, it will be fixed quickly.

Yes, of course, if other app developers find a similar way. So, congrats to the developers of the phototan app to find it.

I don't think so, there is at least one other app that shows the same behavior.
new root dedction
i updated stc pay yesterday to 1.6 and it found my magisk canary (22105) the think i notes is the (isolated) is added to the app !!!
forum.xda-developers.com
I also noticed the (isolated) thing with me.

I tried with v23 this morning, w/o success :-(

Same here, got v23 and working safetynet-fix, no success. Downgraded photoTAN to v8.2.1 .

+1

I'm not surprised, there is nothing in the changelog that this has been fixed.

Downgrading to 8.2.0 or 8.2.1 doesn't work for me. Did you do something else than uninstalling 8.3.0 and installing 8.2.1?

[24.1] Magisk from User perspective - Safety check not working ??

Hi folks,
I got the new update 24.1 of my good old Magisk on top of my Lineage OS on payton device.
But I guess the safetynet check is gone and/or no more working since last update as of the banking app and also the game i.n.g.r.e.s.s is no more working..
What do I have to do in order to get back a positive safetynet check?
I have no much experiencies behind the scenes but all you are made a great job in your laisure time but please give me a chance to understand how and what must I configure to get working Magisk (MagiskHide and SafetyNet Check passed). Maybe there is a additional module that makes the SafetyNet check being passed.
Thank you
Tom

Well... In short:
MagiskHide is gone now, replaced by Zygisk & DenyList. DenyList doesn't do any hide itself, but it can be used by additional modules to do it. SafetyNet check is also removed, but you can replace it by installing a checker from Play Store. Recommended one is YASNAC, search and install.
If you don't pass SafetyNet, first enable Zygisk & Enfoce DenyList, then go to Configure DenyList, tap on three dots in right upper corner and enable system apps. Then search for Google Play Services, expand the list of processes and mark com.google.android.gms and com.google.android.gms.unstable. [Additionally mark every app that search for root access]. Clear the data of Google Play Services and Google Play Store and check in YASNAC if you pass SafetyNet now. If not, download this module and flash in Magisk:
Releases · kdrag0n/safetynet-fix
Google SafetyNet attestation workarounds for Magisk - kdrag0n/safetynet-fix
github.com
Then reboot and check SafetyNet again.
Usually this should be enough to pass SafetyNet, but if not, let me know, we can try another things. If you use official LineageOS, probably you will have to spoof the device's fingerprint, but... one thing at a time
As for bank apps (and some games too), it depends how much enforcements they use. If they rely only on SafetyNet, passing it will be sufficient to run them. But many bank apps use addtional measures to prevent running on rooted devices nowadays. But there are other workarounds which we can try if just passing SafetyNet isn't enough.

Thank you very much. Your guide enables passing the Safety Net check so I can use my special apps again.
In order to understand the new working principle: Please, can you explain what the DenyList denies? And do you know why the CTS check is gone?
Thank you very much
Tom

I think you should get familiar with the Topjohnwu statement on Magisk: https://topjohnwu.medium.com/state-of-magisk-2021-fe29fdaee458
Those changes were obviously well-thought and although they may look like a step back, they will allow to achieve much progress in time

"Hide the Magisk app" feature does not work.

Lately I upgraded to Magisk 24.1 from 23 and lost the usual stealth features then reverted back to 23 again. Everything works fine except for hiding the app. Now some apps detect root and don't work. When I use the feature an extra icon for Magisk named "Settings" is created that does not open the app. The original icon is not removed and opens the app like usual. If I leave it like that, I eventually lose root, then I have to uninstall the Settings app for Magisk to work again. I tried to uninstall and reinstall Magisk many times but still experience the same behavior. Something is clearly broken but I don't know how to fix it. Anyone faced the same problem or has any idea what to try?

if the feature doesn't work please try to contact me later thank you!

It does not work. I've been fighting with it for a couple days now.

ok so you need to try to restart your phone and if that doesn't work please try to email me at [email protected] i know a lot more than people think
also send me a video

The solution to your issue has been posted here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/rename-hide-magisk-not-working-for-v23.4396841/
Why do you want to downgrade though? v24.1 has denylist which works similar to magisk hide. All you need to do is install Universal Safetynet Fix (Magisk modules) and everything should work.

Worked a treat, thank you very much! Basically I downgraded because everything worked fine with the old version of Magisk and I didn't bother to search for a different solution. Is that the best module to pass Safetynet? I think I saw there's a few solutions available.

Magisk 23 + Magisk Hide was detected by many bank apps I have and I was tired of dealing with it, so I decided to upgrade.
Magisk 24 + Universal Safetynet Fix + Shamiko worked like a charm and everything has been hidden and I have a feeling I won't have to deal with root hiding for a long time.

I have Magisk 24 + Universal Safetynet Fix + Shamiko installed on Android 11. It warns me that Shamiko not active as "denylist is enforced'. Regardless, I still get a warning message when I start my HSBC banking app.

Hi @richardmace have you fixed for HSBC Banking App? I had same issue

No, not fixed but not a major issue as app still works. I am now not enforcing the deny list and Shamiko is now active.

I am new to the subject but have similar issue. There is an medical application for diabetes in Google Play. It is called Freestyle Libre 3. "3" is important as there are "1" and "2" versions of this app. This app is used to monitor glucose with the help of external device that is placed on the body via bluetooth. The application has two "features" so far:
1) it is available only on a few smartphones (a few Apple's and a few Samsung's)
2) it is available only in few countries (GB, DE, NL, SE and just a few more)
All my bank apps work with zygisk but this medical app doesn't. I added this app and all google play services on deny list. YASNAC shows passed for basic integrity and cts profile. I tried Shamiko and Universal Safety Fix too. Hiding Magisk doesn't help. still no success. But once Magisk is uninstalled the app starts and works.
Could it be somehow an unusual case when application devs made up some one trick more than Magisk is assuming for apps that check for root? Is there any hope to have this app working on LineageOS with Magisk installed?

The working solution is to allow "USB Debugging" in "Developer options", and additionally by Xiaomi, turn off "MIUI Optimization".
