Can Avast's root methods break SafetyNet? - General Questions and Answers

So, I use Avast Anti-Theft on my phone, and Magisk to hide root so SafetyNet does not trip.
Thing is, Avast has a method only available on rooted phones to install itself in a way that would prevent it from being wiped or disabled, even if a factory reset was performed. Does anybody have any idea if this method, if used, would trip safetynet?

CTS profile match:false

Hi,
I have a ZTE T610_B02 running 5.1.1 and my phone fails the safetynet test. CTS profile match:false.
Root check apps show no root. However, installing "Root Browser" seems to locate folders on the root.
So it seems the stock rom is already rooted, or at least partly. Enough so that it fails the safetynet test.
How do I pass this safetynet test? I have no need for the phone to be rooted. Is there a ROM I can get that will work for this phone and remove the pre-root and not brick the phone?
Factory reset did not help.
Running "unroot my phone" apps do not work, they do not recognise the phone as rooted.

root, install different system apps, unroot, android pay?

hi folks. i have an unrooted s7 exynos. i would like to install some modified system apps like the blackout apps. youtube, google app etc. i need root to do that but have concerns about android pay. i know this will permanently trip knox and kill samsung pay but not bothered about spay.
i also know that i can potentially use magisk and still be able to use android pay, but that situation seems fluid. anyone know if i can root, change system apps, unroot, and still be guaranteed android pay working? or is it any modification at all to /system that will block it? and if that is the case, presumably reflashing stock rom to recover android pay access should work?
cheers.
If you pass safety net then android pay will work, in theory if you successfully unrooted with no traces left behind then safety net will pass. But the challenge would be a clean unroot, I'm not sure how easy that is. Most unroot methods I've seen are a reset, so you'd lose your app changes anyway.
Magisk is quite effective, afaik the only thing it can't hide from saftey net is Xposed.

Samsung galaxy phones: Magisk, SafetyNet and Samsung pass

As the title says.
I rooted my Samsung phone however despite I hid the root from the certain applications I still cannot use them because the root gets detected. I cannot even use my network provider (says I have to factory reset the phone)!
Sure the SafetyNet must be bypassed but no luck (the problem is CTS). Used MagiskHide Props Configuration but still no luck.
Any advice?
I'm using Magisk version 21.4
Thanks!
SafetyNet API no longer queries the device for the CTS but an Google server for it. Magisk is outdated, so far, has currently lost the cat-and-mouse game.

SafetyNet Failed

After a long time I used temp root exploit and I removed it, I tried to Google Pay but does not pass the SafetyNet:
Basic integrity
CTS profile match
Currently the phone is not rooted.
Is it a consequence of this?
You can restore the SafetyNet?

Disable Knox Xcover 5 (not yet rooted)

I"d like to root my new phone before putting any stuff on it, but according to the Magisk installation guide using it will trip Knox.
Already knowing the unofficial software warning when rebooting from my current phone, this is a nuisance i"d like to avoid.
Sadly, the disable option for all Knox apps is inaccessible.
Does anyone know how to enable disabling them on the not yet rooted phone?
