This has been bugging me since I got my first Samsung phone. Back then Xposed was working perfectly though. However now with Lollipop, it's been less than ideal.
Today I finally found a working solution. Check out this answer on StackExchange and be sure to read the entry in the FAQ. Works like a charm.

Hello All,
I hope that someone can help me because I have a strange problem.
I have just bought a LG GW910 phone. The phone seems to work fine (calls, web-surfing, wifi etc) but if I am using my data connection (NOT WIFI) I cannot connect to any HTTPS sites. This also means that I cannot sync my phone with my exchange server across my data connection.
I have testes if across WIFI and it works fine.
I have also tested it by turning off the SSL (and making the necessary mod on the server of course) and then it also works fine, but I don't want to leave it sending my password in cleartext.
Can anyone help? Is this a bug in WP7 or should I send my phone back.
I would be very grateful if people could answer asap so that I can arrange to send this phone back if necessary.
Thanks.

given that you're the first to report it i might suggest speaking with your carrier about it?
Thanks for the comment! I would have thought the same thing if everything had not been working perfectly with my Touch Pro 2.
I cannot explain it, but I have managed to solve the problem.
I had tried resetting the phone and it hadn't helped.
I then tried (just to see how well it worked) doing a remote wipe of the phone (I had temporarily configured by exchange server not to require SSL). I then pannicked for about 40 minutes while my phone sat there with the LG logo and not starting.
FINALLY (YES... it takes AGES!!!) it started, and I configured it EXACTLY the same way as before, and now it works.
I honestly cannot explain it!
If anyone can come up with an explanation, I would LOVE to know.

well good to see you got it solved.
if i may: where did you acquire an LG GW910. is that not a developer phone? as in, not in the market? (it was actually the one WP7 that enchanted me the most.)
Hello,
I bought the device on ebay for €200. The price was certainly interesting!!
Sadly however, the problem that I was having yesterday has started again!! It is very strange!! It worked perfectly for approx 2 hours, and then at 00:40 this morning, it stopped. Now, again, I cannot access any form of https site (for exemple: www.live.com won't work as it directs me to an https site.) if I use the data signal. If I use WIFI it works fine!!
I am just trying another remote wipe of the phone to see if this solves the problem again.
Does anyone have any idea what could be causing this? Bad memory chip????
WORKING!!!!!!!
Hello All,
Problem officially solved now... phone been running fine since Saturday Morning.
It seems that the problem was partially due to my service provider, and partially due to a mistake that I made.
I connect through Orange Luxembourg (Formerly VOX). They have 3 APNs: vox.lu (their old APN that still worked perfectly with my Touch Pro 2), iphone3g.lu (which they implemented when they got the iphone) and then one that I have never used before: orange.lu
I had tried vox.lu and iphone3g.lu and they both worked fine for HTTP, but not for anything secured (HTTPS, SSL etc).
On Saturday morning, I suddenly remembered that there was the orange.lu APN and I tried it. The phone has been working perfectly since then!!
I can't explain why this APN works and the others don't, but I am not going to complain. It is now working fine, and to be honest, I am very happy with WP7. OK... it has some missing functionality, but I am sure the MS will sort out some of these issues given time.
I've had a N5 since they came out, however I haven't rooted until now. I read GFE has some root detection built in. I'm am wondering my options to continue to use this app?
Probably an Xposed module.
Hello folks of XDA, especially the Italians one since i'm creating this thread to address one of the most wanted feature of the Italian Intesa San Paolo home banking mobile application for Android, that is making PayGo work with a custom ROM, rooted phone, ecc....
Now let's first state what PayGo is and what's the problem:
PayGo it's a feature of the application that allows you to emulate the contactless chip of one of you credit/debit card through NFC.
PayGo requires your phone to be unrooted and unmodified.
Every attempt to hide the modifications through Magisk Hide allows you to pass the initial warning of the application about Root and Custom ROM but the feature then fails to start with an unknown error.
So, summing up, PayGo won't work even if you pass SafetyNet checks and no one seems to understand what it checks.
Now, I'm a developer but I'm not even close to understand how security checks and stuff works under the hood in Android but my guess is that PayGo checks somehow if the bootloader is unlocked or not. Following this intuition I Googled how to check from application code if the bootloader is unlocked or not. One answer on Andorid Stack Exchange seemed to be really useful: it states that from a dialer app you can check if the bootloader is unlocked or not. Now, that answer reminded me that I was always wondering why Intesa San Paolo app was asking for phone permissions even if it never used them (at least apparently) and an idea popped to my mind:
what if the app asks for phone permissions only to check as dialer if the phone has unlocked bootloader or not?
Well, I revoked phone permission to the app and tried to open PayGo and guess what, it asks phone permissions right away! If you deny them and check "don't ask me again" it won't even open anymore, so my guess may be right.
The problem now is to understand what values is returned to the dialer and how to modify it so that we can test it.
Any good soul that can offer a solution through, i don't know, a Magisk module or something?
Thank you for your time in reading this, I hope it helps someone

Have you tried disabling ADB debugging? I have personally tested PayGo and works

Yes, it passes the first warning but then fails to start with unknown error
You are lucky because I'm customer of the Intesa group (although I usually don't use this app)
As I said earlier, it works perfectly on my device. The issue is specific to your ROM/device.
I just activated the App and PayGo right now...

Well I tried it on a OnePlus One with Sultanxda LOS but no luck, same on LG G4 with official LOS. Which phone and ROM are you using?
I'll try with my OnePlus 5 keeping the stock ROM, hoping it will work

I'm on Xiaomi Mi5 and LOS 15.1 (Android 8.1)
LOS is not the problem, probably there was something weird in the ROMs you tried. Some old ROMs are implemented in a way that Magisk can't really work/hide everything, most of them before SafetyNet/Magisk era.
Try with stock ROM and Magisk, you should be fine.
Hello,
is anyone else experiencing any issue with NFC on 5.1.9?
Looks like I'm not able to read my tags for some reason.
Pretty sure Android Pay worked after the upgrade, but didn't have a chance to test it today (I just found the issue with tags).
EDIT: Android Pay working fine but none of the Leap Card (Dublin's public transportation card) I tried seem to work.
Weird.
No I haven't. I've been using Google Pay since I've gotten the phone which I rooted day one. I'm on 5.1.9 rooted with TWRP and EX Kernel. Also works with stock kernel too. Maybe a clean wipe and install is in order if you continue to have issues?
I'm on 5.1.9 and I use an app to write to nfc stickers and it is working fine. Reads the stickers no troubles too...
This is very odd.
Android Pay works flawlessly, every single time.
But I've tried with three different NFC based Leap Cards and none of them is triggering the NFC.
Tried them on another phone and they're absolutely fine.
Will try to get a couple tags different tags and I'll try again.
Thanks for the feedback tho!
So, tried with a couple other tags and I can read and write no problem.
Some weird issue with the Leap Card chip...
works fine here.
I had the same issue until I went into settings- more - tap&pay - and changed 'Use default' to 'always', now it works for leap cards
Dear all, I am writing here because I have a very specific issue and I need to deal with it myself.
I have Xiaomi Poco x3 nfc, and I love this phone to bits. I never bothered rooting or flashing any roms so far because I was always happy with stock. Recently however, an issue has popped up.
Grindr, an app I use regularly, has recently pushed an update down our throats that cuts off your access if you are spoofing your location. This is a hazard for me, because I cannot have strangers know exactly how many meters I am from them. So far, I've been able to use mock gps fine, until this update. Mock GPS works even if your phone is not rooted so I used that. However, it no longer serves me now
How can I workaround this? Would root/installing a custom ROM, help with this? Is there a superior way of spoofing your location that Grindr wouldn't be able to detect? Please advise, I literally have no clue how to do this, the last phone I rooted and flashed was the Galaxy S lol. (Original one)
Appreciate the views but a response would be helpful. I can't be the only person on this forum interested in spoofing location

The app is detecting that you are spoofing the location. To bypass that in unrooted device, you will need to decompile the apk and remove the checks which do that. If you are in rooted device with Magisk, you only need to install this LSPosed module: https://github.com/ThePieMonster/HideMockLocation
If you can't find a modded apk or made one yourself, you will need to root the phone
Ok thx for the help. Will Grindr detect magisk?
Or maybe are you able to provide me with a modded Grindr apk?
Lastly. I'm in stock. Never rooted or unlocked anything. How do I get started?
