Cannot unbloat my Android - General Questions and Answers

Hallo All.
Apps that are unbloating Android are not working for me (System App Remover, Root App Deleter).
F.e. when when I use SAR, it is granted with SuperUser rights but at the end I get message "16 failed uninstall", where 16 is number of programs. Similar wit RAD.
I use Android 7.1.1 on my Sony Xperia Z5 Compact with latest version of Magisk & with kernel changed via Rootkernel tool (kernel without DM Verity & Sony RIC ).
Other Apps works properly with root.
Any thoughts on this?
PS. On Lineage it was working like a charm ( but I had to go back to stock Android because of poor camera quality)...
Please help

You could try doing it a different way, use a root file explorer and just delete the junk apps. Probably a good idea to make a backup first if you can.

check linux mode , set SElinux mode to permissive

Well both of your solutions have worked for me. So - thank you!
Just I do not know why I encounter this problem with applications that should debloat Android. Should not apps with root granted by Magisk had already have been launched in permissive mode?
Universal init.d app does not work either.
I am just still not sure if I configured my OS properly.
And I did no have found similar problems to mine on this forum.
Should I be worried & looking for another process of building my Android?

Hide root for play store app "vipps"

Hello,
I'm trying to use an app from the playstore called "vipps".
It's from a bank in norway called DNB, and it let's you transfer money near instantly from one to another.
This app refuses to run on my phone because it's rooted and have a custom rom etc.
I'm running Xtrestolite Deodexed with the included alliance firmware.
I have read somewhere about Rootcloak Plus with Cydia (no idea what this really is, but i understood cydia is like app store for iOS jailbreaked phones?)
I'm wondering if this exsists on 5.0.2 lollipop (and how to get it / install it if it does), or if there is any other known way of bypassing this applications refusal to run on my device.
I'm on a SM-G920F (international version) if that helps.
Any tips / questions / help regarding this is most welcome and much appreciated!

I tried to get xposed, but it's not yet compatible with the S6 as far as i know.
Something about SDK version 21 and arm 64 (no idea what this is, but that was the error when trying to install it)

Cydia is for ios based devices and if s6 had xposed that module called root cloak will work for what you need it for. but since theres no xposed. You cant run it.
I second that!
I have the exact same problem! Please let me know if you find a way to bypass the app restrictions!
Same here:
Cyanogen OS 12.0, android 5.0.2, OnePlus One
Tried RootCloak plus app, add no.dnb.vipps app but still does not open.
I have the same issue with a Huawei running 4.4.4 Vipps by DNB does not work.. Xposed says that there is a known issue with the room installed. I deactivated the Resource hoocks, but it did not solve the issue.. BALLS!!

Hi,
I was able to fix the Vipps issue by using Rootcloak version 1.4 (not the newest one), and adding no.dnb.vipps to the list.
Works like a charm on SGS6
Hope this helps!
OPO CyanogenOS 12.1.1 Android 5.1.1 rootcloak vipps
I have a oneplus one With CyanogenOS 12.1.1-YOG7DAS2K1 and android version 5.1.1. The phone is rooted and I have twrp installed.
I used twrp to install Xposed framework 85 trough the link provided in this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3034811
Within the xposed installer app I downloaded the module RootCloak version 2.1.0
In rootCloak I added no.dnb.vipps (add/remove apps -> three dots -> add custom app -> write "no.dnb.vipps")
Now I can run vipps without any problems.
Vipps on OPO running cm14.1
Sorry to bring up an old thread.
I've been using this Norwegian bank app on cm12/cm13 with rootcloak for a while now without any trouble. Lately the app just crashed on login when using rootcloak so i decided to flash cm14.1 nightly and see if systemless root and magisk would do the trick instead. I flashed cm14.1, fully unrooted the phone, flashed magisk and phhs systemless root. I downloaded SafetyNet playground, and my phone passes all SafetyNet checks. I also downloaded pokémon GO to verify, and that works flawlessly. Vipps however, does not work... The app does not crash anymore, but i get the message "vipps doesn't support rooted devices".
It seems to me like the app detects that i'm running cyanogenmod. When my oneplus one was new, the app wouldn't work even though i had a locked bootloader and no root. I actually had to unlock bootloader, root, flash xposed and install rootcloak to get it working.
Is there any workaround for this problem? It seems to me that rootcloak did something more than just hide the root from the app. Is this correct? I can upload the .apk file for Vipps if that would be of any help. The app force closes before login with the message "Vipps doesn't support rooted devices", so i dont think region will be a problem.
I too am curious of this.
Is there a way to "fool" an app from checking if there is a custom ROM or original ROM?
I assume the app only checks ROM info, and perhaps that can be easily edited?

com.android.phone
no.dnb.vipps
not sure if these are needed as well

[Completed] SuperUser is not being detected by some apps.

my phone is 100% rooted and has the latest su binary installed.
most of root apps work fine but recently i have faced problems with two apps which are Psiphon and Tasker.
-When i tick "force root tunnel" in psiphon, it says "root mode is not supported for this version of android" and confirmation box of superuser didnt show at all.
(force root tunnel means tunneling the device without using the built-in VPN service API like in android 2.3)
-Tasker does not request for su permission when force kill (root access) is checked.

Greetings and welcome to assist. Have you tried usinf phh Superuser instead of SU to see if that makes a difference ? Flashing the latest phh superuser will also remove the su apk for you as well
Good Luck

I solved it.
installing phh needed the latest version of twrp (3.0.2)
after a successfull flash of the zip package (superuser.zip), I lost root access and the old superuser app from chainfire was deleted.
Can you tell me how to install phh step by step?

Do you not have the new superuser app anywhere it should be there. Try installing the app from play store and see

The problem is due to missing Tun module which is not available for my device. Galaxy core prime comes with a preloaded Tun module in the kernel and it's not replacable nor compatible with Psiphon.
Old VPN clients do not depend on the built in VPN service API but require a custom Tun module to perform the tunnel in root mode.
As for the tasker, a recommended modification on the build.prop fixed the issue.
Thanks anyway.

How to Root XZ2 (probably also XZ2c) in Android 10

Android 10 comes earlier than expected, but there's no twrp to flash Magisk to gain root access. I tried to use SAR method to patch boot image, and it actually worked:
Requirements:
- A PC with ADB environment setup. * If you are using macOS, try to use a Virtual machine instead.
- XperiFirm to download Android 10 firmware.
- Magisk Manager App.
- unsin.exe program to extract sin file. Download here.
Instructions:
1. download the latest Android 10 firmware from XperiFirm, the current one is 52.1.A.0.532
2. open the downloaded folder and find boot_X-FLASH-ALL-B6B5.sin file. it may vary on XZ2C, but it surely will start with `boot_X-FLASH-ALL` .
3. drag the boot_X-FLASH-ALL-B6B5.sin file over unsin.exe to extract boot image, then you will get boot_X-FLASH-ALL-B6B5.img in the same directory.
4. Copy boot_X-FLASH-ALL-B6B5.img into your phone.
5. Install Magisk manager app, and make sure your phone is connected to the internet
6. Press Install → Install → Select and Patch a File, and select boot_X-FLASH-ALL-B6B5.img
7. Copy the patched image from your device to your PC, then flash it with fastboot command:
Code:
fastboot flash boot_a magisk_patched.img
fastboot flash boot_b magisk_patched.img
fastboot reboot
after reboot the devices, your XZ2 is should be rooted, but it probably not pass SafetyNet Check, you can use MagiskHide Props Config Module to fix it.
I can't find the way to leave the boot image and patched boot image down below as the attachments, but even if I did, I still suggest to do it manually, just in case I am an idiot and it might broke your phone.

This is independent of any android version.
Unlocking the bootloader means erasing all important cert keys, image enhancements (both on screen and on camera) and revoking the security verification of some applications.
Thanks for posting this! Figured I'm chime in with my experience:
1. I'd recommend wiping userdata when upgrading to Android 10 - I don't know if this is strictly necessary, but I do know that I haven't experienced the unresponsive fingerprint sensor issue others have mentioned, or any other issues.
2. If you want to use Xposed modules like GravityBox, don't install EdXposed! The versions in the Magisk stable repository are not compatible with Android 10 and will bootloop, and even the beta version 0.4.6.0 from https://github.com/ElderDrivers/EdXposed/releases doesn't work with any module I tried.
3. Fortunately, https://taichi.cool/ works perfectly with GravityBox! Install it along with its Magisk module, and then install GravityBox Q beta 6 from https://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/modules/app-gravitybox-v10-0-0-beta-1-android-10-t3974497.
works on my xz2c
@everyone who is interested in getting EdXposed working with Android 10
You need to add the following Magisk modules:
1. Riru - Core 19.6 from here
2. EdXposed-SandHook-0.4.6.1 from here (not the YAHFA version!)
Further you need to install the most current Xposed Manager app from here (the default Xposed Installer app won't work, so deinstall it!).
After a soft reboot, it should work :good:
Most probably it'll break Safety Net (have a look inside Magisk Manager). As a workaround, you have to open Xposed Manager and black-list the following:
- Google PlayStore
- Google Play Services
- Google-Services-Framework
Reboot system
Done!
> Apply your modules (maybe not every module will work. I have successfully tested AFWall+ and XprivacyLUA)

Hello, thanks for this little tutorial !
However, on another thread, ppl aren't singing the same tune ! Look at this answer that I get. @Ænimal explained me that YAHFA version should be better, especially if I want to use XPrivacyLUA.
I guess I should follow your instruction, but I downgraded my XZ2C to Android 9 from 10. I don't know if it will work as you.
I tried with this version of EdXposed : magisk-EdXposed-SandHook-v0.4.6.0_beta.4471.-release.zip and after installed Riru succesfully, I installed SandHook v0.4.6.0 and I get a bootloop issue on my phone.
So I guess I have to try SandHook v0.4.6.1 and if it doesn't work I should try YAHFA v0.4.6.1.

I've always used to install YAHFA builds till android 9, with no issues. So, while you're on android 9, YAHFA is the answer!
SandHook builds, on android 10, FOR NOW, seem to cause less error than YAHFA (at least in the logs - verbose/modules), that's why I'm using it.
But, as soon as EdXposed's dev releases an android 10 YAHFA fixed version, I flash it!

Backup TA
Thank you for your post
Sorry for going offtopic, but can someone give info on how to safely backup TA? I spent two days but couldn't find any info on how to do it on (at the moment, latest) stock Android 10 (52.1.A.0.532) on H8324 (XZ2c).
The way I understand for this root procedure to work, I need to unlock bootloader, and that means losing DRM keys. Is there any info on how to restore bootloader and DRM keys after I finish rooting my device?
I tried to:
1) Downgrade to stock Android 8.
2) Use backupTA_v2 or FlashTool to backup TA.
But that doesn't work.

Hello there,
If you unlock your bootloader on Android 8, DRM keys will be lost on Android 8 so you'll lost camera definitely.
However, on Android 10 and 9, you won't lost DRM keys. Take care, you'll loose camera preview on Android 9 with this version of build and lower : 52.0.A.3.84.
So better to upgrade at least to Android 9, and the lower firmware where camera isn't bugged at all when you unlock bootloader is Android 9 (52.0.A.8.131).
Conclusion : for rooting your device, you need to unlock your bootloader. If you're running on Android 10 (build 52.1.A.0.532) then, everything will be ok, I did it myself and everything worked fine.
If you need more help on how to downgrade your firmware, just let me. Personally, I didn't like Android 10 so I came back to Android 9 (52.0.A.8.131)
So, if unlocking bootloader on android 10 we won't lose the DRM keys or any other functionality?

IndOASIS - Indian Bank App not working due to Root - Magisk Hide not working

I tried to hide my root on other financial apps and everything other app is working fine.
Only the IndOASISAppVTwo is not working.
Attaching my screenshot:
The mentioned app not only tests if Android got rooted ( means SU-binary got added ), but also tests if any modifications were made on Android ( means whether Android got tampered ).

Barclays App Not working anymore

Barclays App used to work just fine until about one week ago, when the latest version has been pushed. And they are now switching to an app-only authentication method (no more SMS, no more PINSentry, and definitely not possible through their website). So, if the app can't be used, I will have to either stop using root (which has been really helpful so far), or find a different bank which has an app that works (I believe it's very unlikely).
The Barclays App Version is: 2.73.2 , released in 16/02/2023
Specs:
OnePlus 7
Android 11 (OOS 11.0.2.1GM57BA)
Unlocked Bootloader
TWRP
Rooted with Magisk (25.2):
magisk app hidden
Zygisk enabled
enforce deny list: Enabled (I tried with enabled and disabled)
Deny List:
ALL Google stuff (absolutely anything that had "google" in their name)
Phone (just for safety, I added everything related to phone and dialer)
Barclays App
Magisk Modules:
App Systemizer v17.3.1
Buybox for Android NDK v1.3.4.1
Debloater (Terminal Emulator) v17.3.3
Disable Screenshot Camera Sounds v1.4
Energized Protection v1.3.5
Magisk Hide Props Config v6.12
OnePlus 7 Volume Booster Mod v2
OOS11 Debloater v7
Shamiko v0.6
Systemless Hosts 1.0 (Magisk)
Universal SafetyNet Fix (kdrag0n, modded by Displax) v2.3.1
Play Integrity API Checker:
device integrity: YES
basic integrity: YES
strong integrity: NO
What is happening:
Barclays App is starting
It prompts for registration (asks to set up a PIN)
Throws Error 00006 (which, after some research, seems to be related to Root)
What I did:
Looked for TWRP folder to delete it (I couldn't find it, perhaps I deleted it in the past, however if you can point me to all possible locations where it could be, I'd greatly appreciate it)
Tried both Shamiko and Universal SafetyNet Fix
Deleted storage, cache, from google, barclays, reboot, even uninstalled and reinstalled apps, all the works...
I tried with both Enforce Deny List Enabled and Disabled
​Nothing of the above helped with making Barclays App work. Any Suggestions?​
Best option atm is use the last version of the Barclays app which still worked (2.72.2) and disable auto update.
Any official way to get the 2.27.2 version? Obviously, because is a banking app, I don't trust mirrors and unofficial repos.
Thanks.

That is the one I used. I understand your concerns, I was in the same boat before I downloaded it.. But I really need the app working myself. Worked fine though..
