I can't believe I'm saying this, but thank God my country developers are incompetent.
I was greeted with this message:"This app can't be used on a rooted device" And I was prepared to go through hoops to get it to work. you know, fucking safetynet and all. But it turns out that the solution was just enabling zygist on Magisk.
Same, hiding root from my bank app was easy, no safetynet needed.
But their NFC phone payment was something else. I had to use safetynet and google play integrity fix with fingerprint that need to be renewed and other bullshit. I sent my phone in a boot loop too because the latest version had a bug for my specific phone ...
My bank app had this and i had to go through quite a lot of hoops. Then i didn't have root for a while (new phone) and when i got root again i also only needed to enable zygist for it to work. So i guess they changed it?
Zygist is a way of hiding the fact that you have root access . Likely your bank changed absolutely nothing.
Well zygist didn't work before so i thing the did change something, wich is also likely cause it seems like they redid the whole app
Or maybe the magisk devs made it more sophisticated.
What does zygist do?
It's just a technique that prevents selected apps from knowing that you have root access instead of just denying them the privileges.
Thank you!
I was disappointed they didn't actually restrict the app for router devices.
yeah.... in a way I was both happy and disappointed
Lmao, same.
I am both happy and slightly worried. Hapied?
