Hey,
phone unlocked/rooted with Magisk 17.3 - now 2 issues:
1. apps with root rights can not always use them. I have to start magisk app manually, close and reopen the app (e.g. SD Maid cleaning app) and then it has root rights again and works properly
a big problem seems to appear then on AFWall+, which is super slow for me. have to reopen especially instagram 3 times to get connection. I guess this is connected to the same issue with magisk, would be worth a try at least. anyone got an idea how I can fix the magisk issue?
2. apps that check for root (my online banking wont work on rooted phones) cant be tricked by the "magisk hide" function apparently. anyone got experience with that? what can i do?
thanks in advance guys :good:

Flash latest magisk
yup for everyone who missed it....we had to skip v18 but the new v19 seems to be fully compatible #magisk
Hi all,
Let's tell you my story,
OP6, unlocked, no TWRP, Magisk 20.3 (safetynet is OK) , I used to use my contactless payement app (French Banque populaire app called "Paiement mobile") thanks to Magisk hide, never had to pay more attention to hide root, no need to hide manager, always works with Magisk Hide only.
Updating from OOS 10.3.2 to 10.3.3 and Magisk 20.4.
Everything seems to me fine. I launch once the payement app, no warning.
Thinking about tweaking to make work VoLTE, I tried to find a way to easly save precious data (can't remember the name of the partition name), and finally found that Wanam created an app called "Partition backup and restore" which do that job.
I Installed it and accepted to grant root access.
And at this moment, I got a toast message from my bank app tells me it has detected a security problem.
Since the message, evreytime I open the bank app, it detected the root...
I tried to reinstall it, verify hiding, clear caches, uninstall the partition backup app, contact Wanam, he doesn't understand how his app can reveal the root to my bank app, hide Magisk manager, disable dev mode, oem debug, phone permission to Google Play Services and other, and maybe other things I don't remember... Read so many threads...
My other root-needed apps work.
Rootbear tells me all is OK except BUSYBOX BINARY (can't find something about it).
You're my last chance before getting stock with MSMTool (don't need root anymore).
Thanks in advance guys.
Edit : used Msmtool to go back to stock. No more problem.
Hello,
In order to do online banking I need to receive the TAN.
But this app won't let me even start, it opens the browser and tells me it detected root,
so I disabled root in the settings, restarted, even cleaned the cache and reinstalled but it still won't let me use it.
Do you know any ROM that supports my banking app?
Or another question: Does it even matter which TAN app I use?
I'm all new to online banking.
Maybe you can check if it works on your ROM, please let me know.
Thanks for your time in advance!
You can use the banking app with magisk. you need the "airfrozen" app and freeze the magisk app before you use the vr banking app and it will work.
This doesn't work here.
Hiding Magisk with "Airfrozen" on a rooted S8 with stock rom let VRSecureGO-App still complain of the device being jailbraked or rooted.
I froze Magisk
root checker app says device is not properly rooted
deleted all Date of VRSecureGo in Settings/Apps
VRSecure not working as described
On a Lineage 16 on installed on a S5 mini without root VRSecureGo won't work either.
Hi All,
I have recently updated Barclays mobile app on my OnePlus 6 rooted running LOS 19 but the app today detected the root (probably the latest update enable that). So I have cleared the data and cache however I cannot go through the menu to access my account and I get error 00006 now.
I have magisk hide enabled and this has been working with Barclays and the other banking app for a year now (excluding Santander which detects the root anyway)
Do you have any suggestions, please?
I'm in the same boat. Magisk delta with zygisk and app hidden etc etc incl. deny list latest Barclays app still detects root. Have even tried deleting Fox folder, in case it starts seeing that recovery folder. Tried lastest canary build, still the same. Anyone had success with running the latest Barclays app rooted? Poco F3 user BTW, but the principles should be the same...
Do you know if removing the root (magisk) fixes the issue?

Nope, haven't tried yet... But i'm guessing after removing root and clearing app data it would work...

Actually, the app might still recognise custom rom. Can't face stock miui just over banking app. What a blow

Is there a way to hide also the unlocked bootloader? We won't know until we try it I guess. There is also a Reddit post where many people seem to have the same problem.
Keep an eye on that too until we find a solution.
Do you know where we could get the version of the app that still works with magisk? Is it possible to export the app? Maybe we can find someone with an old version and ask them to share the apk?
A way to roll back has been posted by u/SuzannaBadger in the Reddit thread, pasting here for visibility:
Hi,
I've found a temp fix for this for now.
Steps are as below:
1. Uninstall the current Barclays banking app.
2. Go to play store,settings,network settings and turn off 'auto update apps'
3. Download the old Barclays app from: https://barclays-bank-plc-banking.en.uptodown.com/android/download (it's legit)
4. Install the app.
5. Go into Majisk, settings, configure denylist and tick all Barclays options (may already be ticked, if this is the case ignore step 5)
6. Restart phone.
7. Open Barclays app and setup as you usually would.
Hopefully this works for you. Applist detector is even detecting I have the Majisk app (even though I have Shamiko and have hidden it) but the Barclays app still works as it's the previous version.

Not sure about hiding unlock BL, never looked into it. If you've used the linked 2.72.2 barclays app, as i have, be sure to disable auto update in google playstore
EDIT: just seen it in step 2!! however, i just selected do not auto update for that specific app, rather than all apps

Yes it does fix the issue. I've checked and now have a hard choice of either restore magisk needing BCR heavily.

Hiding unlocked bootloader most likely wouldn't help as just removing Magisk leaving bootloader unlocked makes Barclays app working perfectly. So they still just detect root and Magisk some other way. What was interesting was that when I removed Magisk and Barclays functionality was restored I run hidden Magisk app to restore Magisk. It asked to restore main Magisk app that I did. And even without restoring Magisk partition and rebooting Barclays stopped working having only Magisk app installed without root.

Try downloading an app called Ice Box and freeze Magisk with it.
That fixed the issue for the bank app I use.
See my replies here guys Post
All I've posted my notes on the reddit page above
Also I have a Santander account and I could never get this app working either!!!
Note this method still doesn't work on Santander!!

Followed steps exactly. Still root is detected

Thanks for replying back.
What issues did you get, ie FC, root detected etc..?
I'm going to keep trying on my phone and see if I can get this working
Ok guys, this method works 100%!!!
Test on my Samsung Note 8 (Android 10, Custom Rom)
Install this module:
GitHub - HuskyDG/MagiskHide at v1.6
Portable MagiskHide. Contribute to HuskyDG/MagiskHide development by creating an account on GitHub.
github.com
and wipe Barclays data, thats it!!!
Best to have Zygisk off and configure the denylist to get this working
Configure Magisk apps
As Magisk app does not allow you to configure denylist when zygisk is off. You must toggle Zygisk on temprorily (not reboot) to configurate denylist and toggle Zygisk off after done.
Note that any modules that uses Zygisk will be disabled!!

I'd tried this with Zygisk off but then USNF had become off and device didn't pass Safetynet. Then with Zygisk on and this module on Barclays still showed 0006. Denylist was configured for Barclays and not enforced.

Try switching Zygisk on and off.
Reboot phone, wipe data and cache for play store and Barclays and try again mate

Well. Have to put thoroughly what exactly I meant been done.
1. Added Magiskhide module to Magisk and turned it on. Magisk was last stable 25.2
2. Uninstalled Barclays. Installed Barclays without running it yet.
3. Add Barclays to Denylist. Turn Zygisk off.
Reboot
4. Checked Safetynet with YASNAC. It failed. Checked modules page in Magisk - USNF was off apparently as Zygisk was off. YASNAC had been passed before all this attempts with this module when USNF was on.
4. Run Barclays - 0006.
5. Clear Barclays data. Turn Zygisk on in Magisk.
Reboot
6. YASNAC passed as USNF became on.
7. Run Barclays - 0006
And may I ask to give some light on what is meant that "it is better to keep Zygisk off". What does this "better" mean? Must be off? Then how do they mean to bypass Safetynet with USNF off?

Hi
By all means you can try my setup:
Modules enabled:
Magiskhide (by Husky)
Magiskhide Props Config
Systemless host
Magisk v25.2 hidden
Denylist has been configured and Zygisk switch is off.
In Denylist I have the following as blocked:
Google play store
Google play services
My bank app
Oysercard app
Please note I've messed around extensively trying to get this to work and a lot of stuff I've added and remove to test out, so some modules (or even apps on the denylist) may no longer need to be there.
Also on step 3, could you turn Zygisk on (the app will tell you to reboot to apply changes) but do not reboot yet!!!, then turn off Zygist then reboot your phone.
Once rebooted clear cache and data for play store and Barclays
Then try banking app again.
If this still doesn't work, you may have a module triggering Barclays to recognise you have root, in which case you may need to disable/remove said modules.
One prime culprit would be Lsposed, if you have this then remove this as well.
Also please note, taken from developers site:
Configure Magisk apps
As Magisk app does not allow you to configure denylist when zygisk is off. You must toggle Zygisk on temprorily (not reboot) to configurate denylist and toggle Zygisk off after done.
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..
