When I got my OP6, I unlocked my bootloader and rooted my OnePlus 6 when it was running 5.1.9. However, SafetyNet Check would randomly sometimes pass and sometimes fail for a while, after settling on failing. I was and still am unable to use google pay or install netflix. Other apps could also detect I was rooted and would not run despite me hiding root from them using magisk hide.
I recently upgraded my phone to 5.1.11 using the OTA update. This removed root, so I assumed these would start working again after the update, but they still do not. Various apps still think I am rooted and do not run.
Does anybody have any insight about what can be the cause of this, or how I can get SafetyNet Check to pass? I don't even care about root, I just want to be able to use google pay
Have you tried locking the bootloader again? Often times, an unlocked bootloader will simply cause a fail for Safetynet. Again, not 100% sure this'll work, but it's worth a shot.
Your bootloader is unlocked check your bootloader if bootloader is locked then you need to wipe your data most of devices need to be wiped after you unroot your device.
easy fix and all you need to do is clear the playstore data so that it gets a fresh start and then reboot and check the google play store settings and see if its ceritfied again.

Google pay will work if you re-lock your bootloader. Not sure about Netflix as I don't use it on my mobile.
Edit: as for insight into why, it's a security thing. When you unlock your bootloader you compromise the security of your device so certain things won't work by design.
People need to stop suggesting to lock the bootloader. It's not needed! I have an unlocked bootloader and everything works fine. You need to install magisk and clear play store data like I told you in the second thread you created.

While you do not need to lock the bootloader to use Netflix, you do need to lock it for HD playback. Netflix uses Widevine DRM and you need Widevine L1 for HD playback. If your bootloader is unlocked you only have Widevine L3. L3 will still allow you to view Netflix content, but you won't get 720p and up without L1. You can use the "DRM Info" app from the Play Store to confirm your Widevine level and use the "Test Patterns" videos inside Netflix to confirm what your max resolution and framerate are.

As said there are only two solutions, either go entirely locked and stock(ed) or do what yldlj said. It actually quite simple people.
If you unlock your bootloader, you HAVE root with Magisk and make sure you hide root for all mobile payment apps. Just having an unlocked bootloader WILL FAIL SAFETYNET CHECKS. So you either lock your bottle or unlock it and root.
The Netflix thing is if you unlock you won't be certified in the play store so you won't see Netflix to install it. If you download the apk you can install it and is it without root but your widevine security is L3 and can only playback a Mac resolution of 480p. You will have to have a locked bootloader to to playback anything 720p, 1080p and 1440p

My bootloader is unlocked and I am not using magisk to hide anything yes I am still certified in Google Play and Netflix is showing up to download. Make sure you are in a country that supports Netflix. Netflix is not available in every country. Also my Magisk is passing safety net checks with the unlocked bootloader

Maybe something changed because it was that way but it's still the same deal for the widevine security that you cant be unlocked and be level 1 (L1) that you can't change with root or hiding anything.

You might not be hiding those specific apps but the magisk hide toggle will be enabled which is enough. So yes you are using magisk hide. anyway the OP hasn't even been replying so yes either fixed the issue it doesn't care anymore.

I stopped rooting my phones for some time. So I'm not really sure on how things work now. I'll be receiving my 8T(KB2001) tomorrow. I just want to unlock the bootloader before setting up the device so that I can just flash the official twrp(when it comes) without clearing data. I just want to know if the device passes safetynet till I flash twrp and magisk? I use Google pay and other bank apps regularly so it's important for me. Also, generally how long does it take for an unofficial/official stable twrp to be available?
Tl;dr - Can I use Google pay with unlocked bootloader without magisk?
Doubtful

About Google Pay, I think you can use Google pay on unlocked bootloader without Magisk, But with Magisk installed and MagiskHide enabled you can definitely use Google Pay without any problem. I have used Google Pay with magisk. And Once i forgot to add Google Pay into magiskhide list but able to use without any problem. So dont worry about GPay.
But there is big catch for other banking apps, they will detect unlocked bootloader and refuse to run which can be bypass 100% using MagiskHide. Been using phonepe, paytm , and other official banking apps ( upi too ) without any problem. ( AFAIK had trouble with Sbi pay only) All others are working fine.
Device will pass safetynet once you enable MagiskHide after installing Magsik Canary. ( by default its off , you need to turn on manually after first run) And new magisk supports with Different App name so apps can not detect Magisk as app.
But biggest disadvantage of unlocking bootloader on Oneplus device is you will lose widevine level 1, it will set to L3 instead of L1 if you unlock bootloader, So basically you will lose HD in netflix,prime and other streaming apps which uses widevine. ( No effect on local hd playing using file,or youtube)
Best luck
It will not pass safety net. I checked that just now before enabling magisk hide and renaming the app. Google Pay will not work with the unlocked bootloader, even without having the magisk manager app installed. Samsung Pay worked fine on my watch with only the bootloader unlocked.
I can also confirm this. I had unlocked the bootloader the day I got my 8T and was surprised to see Google Pay not working. It started working fine after I rooted and hide it in Magisk.

I know I'll lose widevine L1 but I really don't care about that. I also know that I can use Magiskhide to keep them working but I just wanted to wait till the twrp is available. I was just wondering if I can manage without Magiskhide for some time. But looks like I have root now for them. Thanks for the reply :good:

I am passing safetynet with magisk root on US KB2005 11.0.1.2KB05AA. I can open Pay without any issues but have not fully set it up yet. If I recall on my last HTC with Root it threw an error immediately when opening. I will give it a shot later today.

You can relock bootloader with proper MIUI.
But even with unmodified MIUI, or even if you didn't unlock bootloader, you can still have faulty NFC. So you can't make sure, only try and error.
Life is just like this.
Not sure if it's possible to re-lock the Bootloader without loosing all data.
As more and more apps stopped working with some 'security warning' and finding it more and more difficult to run certain banking and other applications I decided to 'unroot' my Poco F2 Pro.
But, too bad, some Apps still complain about 'security issues' or explicitly about the unlocked bootloader - but now there is no MAGISK Hide or similar to 'cheat the system'
But, even worse, according to many posts in various forums locking the BL will erase all data.
Any idea if it's possible?
Thanks!

Unroot the phone before flashing rom.
Phone is unrooted and updated with latest Stock, so I want to re-lock the BL.
As too many apps fail working with Magisk installed, and it's a constant search for work-arounds, I decided to stay unrooted. But many apps still fail because of the unlocked BL

You can flash without losing data(use update scrip in the zip rom or twrp) and have a working phone(certified) without locking the bootloader and these roms are better than stock(choice between android 11 or 12).

No it's not possible to re-lock the bootloader without losing your data.
Installing a Xiaomi.eu ROM will still have things complain about an unlocked bootloader, so isn't much of a solution.

Hi, i am looking more styles for EdgeLighting. before, we could use EdgeLighting+ but now its not working on android 12.
there is an app called muviz edge that contains excellent styles but app does not work properly. so i am looking for a better app for replacing edgelighting+ with beautiful styles.
can we install S21 or something else edge lighting app on our A51?
do you have any recommended app?
Funny thing is, your phone already has all the edge lighting effects built in, the only problem is that there is a specific file called floating_feature that's missing one text line that would make all those extra edge lighting effects appear
So to answer your question, to get more styles for edge lighting you need to root your phone and edit the following file:
system/etc/floating_feature.xml
And add the following line inside the features:
<SEC_FLOATING_FEATURE_SYSTEMUI_CONFIG_EDGELIGHTING_FRAME_EFFECT>frame_effect</SEC_FLOATING_FEATURE_SYSTEMUI_CONFIG_EDGELIGHTING_FRAME_EFFECT>
Save, reboot and your phone should now have all the effects available that Samsung enables on their flagship phones.
And before you ask, no, there is no way to do this without root.
Tnx, but with root, secure folder will be disabled. and i cant root my phone.
in android 10 We could install edgelighting+ that installs additional styles. (without root).
so Did EdgeLighting+ somehow edit this file?

I have no clue. But as you said, edge lighting+ no longer works so on newer Android versions, rooting is your only choice.

You will need to root, yes. Since you will edit it, it will lose Samsung's trusted signature and will therefore count as a custom ROM

As far as I have researched, it does not seem to require root, but we have to open the bootloader or OEM Option in Developer Mode.
People are also talking about a tool called Odin Patched, which can bypass some verifications.

Hey no worries, XDA is meant for a place to learn and I'm happy to try and help/educate in any way I can.
Opening the bootloader is step 1 in getting root access. You may think that root is the equivalent of installing Magisk and that's what root is but it's a lot more than that. By installing something custom you've in some way obtained root access by editing your stock ROM.
But anyway, going back to your original question/answer, the patched Odin can only bypass some verifications on Odin's side but it can't bypass the verification that the phone does itself. The patched Odin is mainly for installing U firmware on U1 variants and vice-versa, something that you can't do on the original Odin. It can't really bypass checking the validity of Samsung's signature on stock firmware. Even if it could bypass that check, the phone also checks the firmware it's being installed so it will detect it as a custom fw file
So, long story short, if you edit stock FW with any tool it will break Samsung's trusted signature and both phone and Odin will pick it up as a custom firmware (i.e. custom ROM) and you will only be able to install it by unlocking the bootloader. Flashing anything custom will break/trip Knox and it will be broken forever
Let me know if you have any more questions I can help you with.

Thank you, now many things are clear.
I want to know if unlocking the bootloader is worth it?
I have no problem with the warranty, I have the phone for more than 2 years and Samsung has no after sales service in our country. But for me, the use of banking app, Secure Folder, Samsung Pass are very important.
Is there a way to make all these apps work without problems by unlocking the bootloader?
Surely the OTA updates will also fail with this work, right?

Some banking apps are harder to trick than others. I have no problems hiding root from my banking app but I've seen others struggle to hide from theirs, can't really comment on it. Secure Folder has a fix in Android 12 so it should be able to be fixed. Samsung Pass is something that still has no fix as far as I know so if you decide to root/blow knox fuse, this will never work again even if you lock your bootloader again. I've made my change to Google Pass which works with root so Samsung Pass isn't important to me anymore.

This is correct, OTA updates stop working when you unlock your bootloader but if you re-lock your bootloader, you may get OTA updates again.

No, this will lock your phone. Once you edit anything with root or install a custom fw (rom) then it will always count as custom for the phone. If you lock your bootloader while you have custom fw installed, your phone will be stuck in download mode telling you that your phone has custom fw and will refuse to boot until you flash stock fw.
Thank you very much for your very detailed explanation
So, for this part, I need Magisk, which probably Hide all banking apps in Iran

According to your explanation, This is my decision: I can unlock the bootloader and flash the modified ROM (I can apply the necessary fixes for Secure Folder and other changes to the ROM (Can i?)). The only thing I miss is the Samsung Pass feature, which I can replace with Google Pass, OTA updates can be ignored and do not have much priority for me.
The only important thing is the banking apps.
When the bootloader is unlocked, is the root status rooted or un-rooted? Because I feel that some banking apps only check root access and have nothing to do with bootloader (At least in Iran).
If the root status has not changed after Unlocking the bootloader (I think the root status changes after installing Magisk or SU) I think that I can do the above steps and reach my goal

This is where it can get a little tricky and depends on each app because it's not a standard. If your banking app checks if your bootloader is unlocked then you pretty much need Magisk to hide your bootloader unlocked. Without Magisk, any app will be able to check that you have an unlocked bootloader
If your bank app checks to see if you have Magisk only then you can certainly avoid having to flash Magisk if you're not going to use it anyway
If your bank apps checks safetynet then you will again need to flash Magisk and flash a patch to pass safetynet tests
Again, it's not a standard so it all depends on the bank app in question. You can certainly try to unlock your bootloader and stay in stock and check if your bank apps detects your unlocked bootloader. Just unlocking bootloader shouldn't blow knox yet.
