So I want to spoof my phone and make it so an app that requires new users in exchange for points can be unlimited. I want to do this by spoofing my device and making the app think im a new device registering for their app.
So far I have:
Galaxy S7 Edge
Rooted the device
Using Magisk Delta
Hide all the root stuff
(Root Undetectable)
If someone could suggest an apk or module that would do just that please lmk
This can be done by changing the related entries in Android's system file named build.prop: requires Android is rooted.

Or what is the exact mechanism behind this in Android? I have been using GNU/Linux for many years so I understand the original concept and would not want every app to have root privileges.
The Superuser app allows you to accept & deny all root apps. You can also choose to always allow certain apps, but you don't have to.
I don't quite understand this. Who gives the apps the privileges. I suppose the Superuser app is only the frontend for some system service. And does it work as a white list or as a black list. Meaning: Does every app get root priviliges by default on a rooted phone or do I have to manually give root privileges to desired apps but the rest doesn't even realize it's on a rooted phone.
By default, apps are denied root privileges. If I restore an app that runs as root in the background -along with its data - the app won't work until I launch it & grant it superuser permissions. Droidwall is a good example of this. Droidwall works by denying or allowing 3g and/or wifi access to apps based on your input. It does this by changing the iptables. If I flash a new ROM & restore with Titanium Backup, I usually forget that Droidwall isn't doing its job until I notice ads in an app that isn't supposed to connect. Once the app is launched & I choose to apply the rules, Superuser prompts me to allow the changes. If I do not make a choice within 10 seconds, SU automatically denies the root request.
In short, an app will never run as root (aside from superuser itself, if that counts) without you first allowing it. Also be aware that most everyday apps will never ask for root access as they don't need it to run. Only apps that are making changes to the system (reading or writing) will need root access. As far as accessing your contact data & other stuff you may worry about, any app can do that if it has permission (not root) to do so. When you first install an app, you will see a list of permissions - usually an app needs those permissions to run and there's nothing to worry about.
OK, thanks I understand it more now. What would happen if I didn't install Superuser. Is there a built in daemon for superuser privileges?
Don't fight the powers that be. Install superuser. You need it.
I'm pretty sure you'll get error messages from most root apps. I could be wrong, though. Next time I'm about to flash a new ROM, I'll remove Superuser after I do my backup, just because I'm curious. I'm pretty sure that Superuser or an alternative - if one exists - is necessary. I know the ability is there in the os, but I would think that it would need some kind of vehicle (such as an app) to relay the information. I certainly hope apps wouldn't automatically be granted root privileges, but I'm not sure. It's an interesting question, though.
Roms come pre-loaded with Superuser, and any auto-root method does as well. You would only be without it if you root manually, stay on stock, and choose not to push the app. Or, I guess, if you choose to remove it.
Hi!
I have a Moto G8 Plus and I rooted it yesterday. Running Android 10.
I'm trying to change my device Id, but the apps from playstore are not working for me (One of them even says it changed the ID to the same number as before... It makes no sense)...
Anyone can suggest me any app? Or any way to verify if its really not working?
Root checker says my android is really rooted
It can be achieved by using Device ID Changer app, which is actually a module for the famous Xposed, however, on Android Pie+ it's called EDXposed, and you'll need magisk with another two modules to get it to work.
But the good thing is, it gets the job done (as long as magisk and exposed are active).
EDXposed on Android 10.
Search for "device id changer exposed apk", download, install, and activate it. You'll need to buy the Pro version to insert a desired value, otherwise, it randomly changes the id.
Thanks man,
Only i can't find the device id changer exposed apk
Any tips how to get to that?
I'm working on porting "CIT test" application from MIUI to custom Android 11 ROMs (for calibrating proximity and fingerprint sensors), with end goal of creating a Magisk module. I'm stuck now with the application calling android.os.ServiceManager/addService, which fails with SecurityException -- I presume because I removed android:sharedUserId="android.uid.system" from its manifest, so it doesn't run with system app permissions. Currently I place it in /system/priv-app instead, which allows me to give it at least all the manifest permissions that it requires.
AFAIU, there is no way for me to simply use android.uid.system, as it requires one to sign the package with the same keys that were used for the ROM itself. As my idea is to have a general Magisk module, this is out of the question. However, because obviously I expect devices to be rooted (and can require Xposed), I want to find some way of circumventing signature check for this one package. Say, using Xposed to patch signature check, and to allow my public key to be used for android.uid.system apps. I don't want to completely disable signature checks, as this greatly compromises security.
I also thought of somehow using su to run this application as root, but apparently this is also not possible.
Is there a way to do this or something similar? Maybe I miss another way of implementing what I want? Any help or links are greatly appreciated.
I am curious about this too. It would help install the nReal nebula service on non-carrier devices and use nRreal Light AR glasses with the Nebula app.
Re-add the android.uid.system line
disable your Android Signature Verification
install with magisk to /system/app or priv-app
As the title suggest, I'm trying to bypass a root check for an app, more specifically MyMazda App. I have tried several different methods ( repacking Magisk, Root Cloak, LSposed/Xpirvacy, Unviersal SafteyFix Patch ). None seem to work, my bank, credit and stock exchange apps work completely fine along with every other app except this one. I'm running on a complete stock ROM.
I am running:
Oneplus 8 Pro
Android 11
OxygenOS 11.0.10.10.IN11AA
Magisk v24.1
This raised a few questions:
1. Is it even possible to bypass this apps root check?
2. If it is and when I do bypass it, will all the features work (ie. Remote Start/Stop, Remote Lock/Unlock, etc.)?
3. If there is no way, will downgrading Magisk to when MagiskHide was in the app?
4. And if I do need to downgrade, is there aspecific procedure for the Op8 Pro or is just like any other phone?
Sidenote: I am very new to this, I only just rooted my phone 2 days ago, without any issues thankfully, so I may have missed something important to one of the modules for it to work. Thank you in advanced!
Checking whether Android is rooted or not basically requires only 1 line of program code.

Interesting, then how come this app is causing so much issues compared to my banking apps and such?
Rooted therefore lost Secure Folder.
Is there any way to get the Secure Folder working again whilst rooted? (I think some custom ROMs manage to do this...?)
Or is there a (preferably System level) reliable App lock alternative?

No. Secure Folder is tied to Knox. Rooting breaks Knox. Even if you go back to stock, it still won't work.
I understand about root breaking Knox.
But I've seen previous Samsung posts about getting Secure Folder to work with build prop editor mod/ Magisk fix module/ custom ROMs with working Secure Folder etc.
So just wondering if any expert or experienced person on this topic.....
as to having back knox, I think is not posible, but, I recall reading somewhere about hiding the rooted state to make some apps to work
Secure folder is working on both rooted VN and Dr. Ketan's rom. S22U 908E
I've hidden root successfully for relevant banking/ monitoring Apps, which otherwise wouldn't have worked if root not hidden.
Exactly my point, if custom ROMs can make Secure Folder work (Knox is still tripped), then is it possible to port this component over to rooted s22u - to have a working SF?
There is a TWRP group on Telegram for this device. Just look for afaneh92 Magisk modules. Secure folder is working fine on rooted Phone with this magisk module.
