Question Anyone having trouble install Netflix? - ASUS ROG Phone 5 / 5s

Hi all, I just noticed my Netflix app is not usable after convert CN to WW.
ROM: Tencent device with 86(latest) WW firmware.
Cannot find the Netflix app in Play Store. Installed manually from APK and the app says "The device is not support by the app."
Tried clean Play Store' cache and data.
Any idea??

Netflix is known to read device properties. Fix the conversion and you'll likely fix it. The alternative would be something like the MagiskHide Props Config module.

Thanks for your advice, just a quick question. Besides change /vender/factory/COUNTRY file, what else need to be modified during the conversion?

So I guess your one is converted version as well. Would you mind check your props got any "CN" value by run getprop? Thanks

There are none
Conversion discussion should be continued in
Some thoughts of convert CN to WW
Hi all, I am a new owner of the ROG Phone 5 Tencent version. I got it from Jingdong(a Chinese Amazon-like platform) and I have been busy flash my phone for the last couple of days. Now I got my phone converted to WW(sort of) and I am going to...

EU Chinese ROM is certified and passes safety net. Was always going to work

Magisk For Snapdragon Hong Kong S10e (SM-G9700)

Magisk can successfully be installed on the G9700 using the same Exynos method.
Follow these steps:

Happy rooting!
Do not need to use ian magisk, the https://topjohnwu.github.io/Magisk/samsung
is correct too.
As mentioned in 9700 thread: no issues running magisk, not a single reboot etc.

My mistake. I thought it was mandatory because people have been saying you need his Magisk build in order to achieve root on the Snapdragon variants. I have fixed the post. Thanks!
"4G icon still visible after disabling mobile data (and not having WiFi enabled/connected) " is a stock rom problem. I didn't rooted my phone and i have this bug.

Hi guys, the link is broken.. I'm getting the 9700 HK model this week, any luck with a clean root without the reboots issue?

I've had the G9700 for about a week, and now I'm seriously considering selling it. It's a great phone in many respects, but that awkward means of utilising Magisk makes rooting it more trouble than it's worth, and I really need my Viper sound mod.
Unless someone comes up with a Snapdragon TWRP and patches it to Magisk like this, I might as well stick with my ZUK Z2 Pro: https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...s10-magisk-t3965673/post80202818#post80202818

When restoring using HiSuite, it responds with "Failed to restore".
I'm on build 10.0.0.134 of EMUI - could this be the problem? Is that the build that others have had success with?

1. Check your drivers and make sure they're all installed properly
2. Make sure you use the provided cable
3. Need to have a Sim card inside and also logged into huawei account
4. USB debugging needs to be turned on and also the hisuite USB access.
Had the same issue too and doing all the above plus a a reboot or two and it worked fine after that. Firmware versions doesn't effect it.
Hi, plan on this phone as my daily driver so I will probably runs anything on it, including sensitive banking and security apps, I have saw lots not recommending using this method as it opened up some loopholes (i.e. Google SafetyNet failed), any source or research being done that pointed out any insecurity of using such method? (i.e. Prone to information leaking, etc.)
Thank you in advance. Great community!

No it's not working for me I did changed the package name to just "system" and also turned on magisk hide but still the app crashes I have OnePlus 7T
Thanks
Thanks :highfive:
I have gone crazy until I read this post. I reset my OP5, I formatted it and installed Android 10 and it worked, I was installing things until the crashes reappeared.
I know it was because of Magisk because when I installed it, I had problems again but I didn't know that changing the name was the solution.

I'm sure you thought of this but after renaming did you reinstall the game?
of maybe call Magisk "Big Hotdog" lol
Despues de cambiarle el nombre al magisk actualizaron el "magisk" renombrado?

Hi. Just changing Magisk package name and hiding it from CoD with Magisk Hide doesn't work anymore.
I'm using Poco X3 and as soon as I install Magisk, CoD starts randomly crashing.
Any solutions?

Can I hide the use of a custom ROM from an app?

I'm using Sony Xperia XZ2, and just flashed Android 11 AOSP (because officially it only supports up to Android 10).
There is an app that does not run and gives me an error message and I suppose it's because it sees a custom ROM (didn't happen with Android 10).
Is there any thing to do about that?
Thank you!

It's one of those fitness apps that reward you for walking/running (but it's local and isn't available to everyone).
I currently don't have root, so that's not the problem. Are you sure that using magisk will help here?
I don't mind rooting my device (in fact I want to).

ok, looks like your system integration fails,
it is one of the problem caused because of saftynet api, can you tell me which country are you from?

Sure, Israel.
But why does it matter?
IMO doesn't matter at all.
The cited "SafetyNet API" is integral part of "Google Play Services" what isn't location dependent, AFAIK.

@TheeWolf
If the Android system property values of ro.build.fingerprint and ro.vendor.build.fingerprint aren't the ones from device's Stock ROM ( which are certified by Google and pass SafetyNet ) the actually installed ROM is assumed to be a Custom ROM.

I see. Can that be changed to trick the app?
Edit: I found a Magisk module that does that. The question is, what values do I use?
Of course the values what are valid for device's Stock ROM.

Sorry, but I don't remember. However looking at the Magisk's module list I see there is a module called MagiskHide Props Config, this may be it.
