Sky Go still blocked when rooted? - Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys, is sky go still blocked on rooted devices? I have an S5 that i rooted a while ago but returned to stock for the purpose of sky go, Has anyone found a way around it? i know there was rootcloak and a few other apps to try and prevent it but those didnt work back then, Hope for a reply. thanks alot guys.

Wasn't there a sky go xposed module for this? I maybe wrong... I use "hide my root" and a stock kernel when using the "all 4" channel 4 on demand app. Maybe the same will work for you? Root cloak didn't work me, the normal or xposed version both were fails for me. But the app I mentioned did the job.

I felt I had a simile but without effect hoped for , try this

There's finally a way round the restriction that prevents people with rooted Android devices from being able to use Sky Go.
Follow this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software/mod-magisk-v1-universal-systemless-t3432382
It involves:
1) returning to stock ROM (unrooted)
2) installing a custom recovery such as TWRP and booting into it
3) installing Magisk
4) installing Magisk's version of phh's Superuser
5) rebooting into system
6) installing phh's Superuser app
7) installing Magisk's management app
8) whenever wanting to use Sky Go, disabling root in Magisk's app
9) re-enabling root afterwards in the same app.
I can confirm this works reliably. I have it running on my rooted LG V10, having never managed to get Sky Go to run on a rooted device before.
Do bung the developer who invented Magisk a donation if it's worked for you and if you can.

My device: Gt-p7500 with lollipop aosp.
Sky go was detecting the rom (not rooted ) wasn't stock and it considered that as a root problem showing the error message. After many tests I assumed sky go was detecting the aosp rom by reading a string "key tests " in the build number and looking the SeLinux mode permissive.
The solution was: rooting the device, mounting system with twrp, downloading app "prop-editor "(play store) , edit the parameters of the build.prop file (under folder system) and replace every "key tests " string( with whatever you want) in the parameters., set enforcing mode of Se Linux by flasing a zip file ( https://forum.xda-developers.com/devdb/project/dl/?id=12047) After that full unrooted the device, reboot....and finally everything works. I hope it will be useful. Ciao.

Any temp unroot solution for S4? (4.4.2)

Does anyone know of a temporary unroot solution that works on an S4 with Android 4.4.2? I'm trying to run the Three Intouch app and Rootcloak/RootCloak Plus don't do the trick for me.
what i'm doing now works...but it's kind of long winded.....good solution if you want TEMP ROOT, but usually NOT ROOT. Maybe not so good the other way around, but it will work still.
1 - root with towelroot
2 - install SuperSU from PlayStore and attempt to open and update binary (it may fail)
3 - reboot and open SuperSU again, if it again asks to update binary it will work this time, reboot once more).
4 - set up your options in SuperSU (e.g. no notification, trust system user etc).
5 - do whatever you need to do with root
6 - to UNROOT just choose "Full Unroot" option within SuperSU app, THEN also uninstall towelroot.
7 - Reboot and you'll be UN rooted and apps like SkyGo etc will work perfectly.
8 - If you need to re-root, repeat the process from step 1.

Thanks. I'm already rooted with CF-Auto Root but will bear this in mind. I was hoping for something I could run from a command line which would temporarily disable root while I wanted to run the app.
Yeah, I'm not sure that any of these really work well. It seems that some apps work fine using the temp unroot/rootcloak/hide root solutions, but any apps that are not working with those need a full unroot before they will play ball. At least until geohot comes along and makes a magic one button root toggle (which of course will also reset Knox trip back to 0x0)

I did see someone on a message board who managed to get the app working with RootCloak/Cydia, but don't know which phone/OS he was using
interesting......if you find out, be sure to post back, as this app is the main reason why i need to stay unrooted, most other apps i care about work either with root or while root is hidden.

Towel root

Does towel root method work on AN12 update. I have read the root methods for under AN12 but since this update has been out for a while now i thought maybe they got towel root to work.
Thank you in advance.
Sent from my GT-N5110 using XDA Premium HD app
Short answer is yes, however, you will need to ODIN your kernel first then gain root with towel root. Read this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2784860
Towelroot v3 refuses to install on Galaxy S5 from Verizon.
I'm having problems getting Towelroot v3 installed on my Verizon Wireless, Samsung Galaxy S5 16mb phone.
We were running fine while being rooted under V4.4.4 and Rom *NHA*.
We removed SuperSU, and uninstalled. it.
We installed the update, with no problems.
We rebooted, into Download mode, and flashed Kernel *NCG* .
We copied Towelrootv3 over and attempted to install it... (This is where the problem begins...)
We attempt to install TowelrootV3.apk. We get the popup that gives us the warning, along with the checkbox, we select the checkbox, which allows us to go ahead with the installation... the install begins but then suddenly says, "App not installed". (??????)
I have ensured that we are booted up under the NCG Kernel, and that we have selected:
Settings ->Security->Unknown Sources [ck'd]
Settings->Security->Verify Apps [Ck'd']
Developer Options->USB Debugging [not Ckk'd]
Developer Options->Allow Mock Locations [Chk'd]
No matter how many times that we try to install it, with different settings etc.... it fails with "App not installed!"
What could possibly be the reason that it refuses to install when we are using the *NCG* kernel?
I removed the NCG kernel and put the NK2 Kernel back in, and rebooted for the time being. It's working well, I just cannot get TowelrootV3 installed so that I can install SuperSU.
I've rooted another S5, using the very same procedure, and had absolutely no problems.
What am I doing wrong on this phone? It's driving me crazy, and I don' t have too far to go...:silly:
Thanks in Advance!
Please Help.

Problem fixed... working now, successfully Rooted
Well,
I found that if you do not copy the towelroot.apk to your internal memory, it will not allow you to install towelroot.
Instead of Downloading towelroot.apk from the website from the phone itself, I downloaded it onto my PC. Then connected my phone to my pc, and placed it into "Access Picture" mode so that you can upload and download pictures into the phone's internal memory. I used that mode to copy towelroot from my pc to the phone.
I used Odin3 to load up NGC Kernel.
Then I disconnected from my pc, rebooted the phone, and was able to install towelroot with no further warnings.
Once that was done, I was able to use Odin3 again to load back up the NK2 original Kernel. I then rebooted again,
and then I could "Make it Rain". After a nice summer rainstorm, I was able to install SuperSU from Google Playstore and install it.
I sure hope that when 5.0 comes to our Verizon Android S5 phones, it's equally as easy to get root access as it has been for 4.4.4. I would surely be hindered without it as my phone relies upon a lot of apps that require root access. Unless Verizon changes their ways, this will be the last Samsung Galaxy I will ever purchase, so that I can move over to a Nexus device.
Thanks to everyone who has stepped up and helped us keep our phones productive and rooted.
Cheers,
-Stone

[ROOT] (Updated) Official Stock Nougat 7.0 (100% Working) - All Exynos Models

ROOT for Official Stock Nougat 7.0 (100% Working) - All Exynos Models (Tested it on SM-G930F/D SM-G935F/D)​
By rooting you may lose some and gain some. Be careful in what you are doing.
Read each and every step mentioned in this post carefully and then start working on Root.​
If you've any fear about the root. Please stop it here and close the window :angel:
Desclaimer:
[*]This is working on Exynos (SM-G930F) S7 Flat and (SM-G935F) S7 Edge models! (Should also work on all the Exynos Models)
[*]This will erase your phone so be sure to backup anything you need
[*]Your warranty is VOID Knox flags 0x1 or 0x500
[*]I'm not responsible for damage to your mobile or loss of warranty!
Things that may not work:
No official OTA updates (Of-course)
All Knox Based Apps (Samsung Pass, Secure Folder, Samsung Pay, S Health)
But you can get the above working - We have some ways to make them work even after root. Please Check that after the root process below
Here are the instructions to root your Nougat:
Instructions are similar to Marshmallow. Main thing to note here is - Use the latest supersu build.
Prerequisite:
Samsung Drivers
ODIN
SR2-SuperSU-v2.79 and above versions.
twrp-3.0.2-4
Instructions:
Enable OEM unlock & Debugging Mode in the Developer Options
Reboot your device into Download mode. To do this, hold the [Volume Down] + [Home] buttons for a while.
Once you reach the Download mode warning screen, press [Volume Up] to continue.
Open Odin and place that TWRP tar file in the [AP] slot and disable Auto-Reboot and click on "Start" by connecting your phone.
When its done flashing, Hold [Volume Down] + [Home] + [Power] to get out of Download mode and immediately swap to [Volume Up] when the screen blanks.
If you don't see TWRP boot splash, try again.
At this point, you will reach the screen asking you if you want to allow system modifications.
By swiping right, you will trigger dm-verity, and if you don't follow the next step you will be unable to boot!
If you are going to root your device and follow the rest of these steps, then it is safe to swipe right and enable modifications.
If you want to use Systemless DevBase, then do not swipe. Keep it as read only.
Go to Wipe and click on format data. Type "yes" and it will format.
Now go back to home and click on "Reboot" then click on "Recovery" Option.
Now Transfer the above downloaded filed into your Phone or Memory Card or OTG Pendrive.
Now again click on Install and flash the Super SU. Only the latest Super SU is working fine with no issues. Do not use the old versions.
You can now click on reboot > system
It will take about 5 Min and boot. Done. You've got the Nougat rooted.
After the fresh boot, you will setup everything. Once you are in, you can observe a notification.
This is a security notification - unauthorised actions have been detected. Restart your device to undo any unauthorised changes
Disable the notification permissions in settings and restart your device by using power button.
Do not restart it by using the option mentioned in that window!
Now go into supersu app. A popup will open to disable the Knox. click on OK. It will take some time to disable it. If its taking more than 5 min and failed to disable, then restart the mobile again and do the same step. it will work now.
Note: You can ignore the last step, If you want to use KNOX - do not disable it.
How to Disable the notification permissions:
Slightly move the notification to the right. You can see a 'settings icon'. Click on that and you'll be taken to notification permissions.
If you see "Allo notifications", disable it.
or
Go to Settings > Applications > Click on 3 dot menu on the right corner and select "Show system Apps". Find "SecurityLogAgent" and open it.
If you dont see that option to disable the notifications:
Go to settings > device maintainance > Device Security > Click on scan device once and close the settings.
Open the supersu app and you may see the popup to disable KNOX. click on OK. (If you've already done this, just restart your mobile)
Restart the device. Done.
If you the see the notification again, install titanium Backup app and Disable/Freeze - SecurityLogAgent & SharedDeviceKeyguard.
Restart your mobile.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I've Mentioned that some of the things may not work. But, You can make it work if you follow some of the other threads posted for our S7.
Here is the list of all the different threads about Root:
1. If you dont need anything except root : Follow the above root process and you are done.
OTA Updates & Knox based Samsung Apps (S Pay, S Health, Secure Folder & S Pass) do not work.
2. If you want to tweak your device with Mods & Apps:
This includes Custom Kernel Installation, Some Mods/Apps -
Custom Kernels for Nougat:
Super Kernel
Super Stock Kernel
TGP Kernel
Mods & Apps:
UniMod script
The Sound Mod Thread by ZuBi182
Zero Camera Mod v8.1 - Bitrates | JPG+ quality | Latest Camera - G930/G935 - New App
Viper4Android
Viper4Arise
ADDONS-v11.0.by.ambasadii - This will contain all the above mods and ROM control options.
Google Assistant
3. If you want root with most of the things working: Use this method only after flashing the Official firmware through odin.
Use knox and Samsung pay with root
How to use snapchat with root (no Xposed needed)
Nougat w/ working Samsung Pay STEP BY STEP Guide
Samsung Pass and OTA updates May/do not work here.
4. If you want root with OTA updates and some other things:
Follow this thread - SYSTEMLESS DevBase

Special Note:
Please do not use the old versions of supersu on Nougat. You'll have some problems with the root. You may get the root but some of the things may not work well.
Camera doesnt work, flash light doesnt work, wifi problem, delay in response, keyboard doesn't work properly, App closure etc etc.
So, use SR2-SuperSU-v2.79-SR2-20170103215521 and above versions for better results.
Phsuperuser and magisk will also work but, you may have to use custom kernels.
Did you brick your device ?
Then flash the official firmware using ODIN. Download the official stock firmware from sammobile.com or by using this tool
Hit Thanks if it helps :fingers-crossed:
have a good day:good:

Some of the members are unable to see this option. Members who have upgraded directly from Marshmallow to Nougat are having this issue. You cannot change the notification permissions for system Apps. And for those who have upgraded from Beta, they have the option to disable. not sure why.
If you dont see that option to disable the notifications:
Go to settings > device maintainance > Device Security > Click on scan device once and close the settings.

We have some MODs available to remove knox and bloatware for Marshmallow and Beta Nougat. I did not test any mods on this official Nougat.
May be after sometime this procedure will get easy.
Hope that helps :good:

I think it's your first time to root your phone.
Snapchat will not work on Rooted devices. Its blocking the user to login on rooted devices.
But, we have many threads in XDA on how to use snapchat despite the root. You should takeout some time to search on google
Here is a thread by @TheGejr - Snapchat on rooted devices without Xposed (Nougat)
Another Thread : Snapchat and Root
Or you can use the following steps:
unroot your phone and Restart : Open Supersu > go into settings > go to 'Clenaup' Category > click on "Full unroot". It will remove the root.
Login to your snapchat.
Root the phone by super su again.
You can use the snapchat again.
Hope that helps

Yeah Right. Its not needed (as per the comments in that thread).
I have observed the same in MM as well.
In most of the rooting method threads, everyone recommended to flash the no-verify zip. So, I did the same.
Will see if it works that way with the new supersu.
May be you can try that when you get the nougat update

In the new official Nougat, S Health app is checking the KNOX flags due to updated security policy. If your knox tripped, then it wont work.
I've tried removing the knox, Removed S Health app and installed it as user app. Nothing worked.
This is working in custom ROMs. Anyway you want to root the official stock, so using custom roms is almost the same. Try them instead of this
[MENTION=817964]@Killer333 yeah, I know mate; becouse of that I'm waiting for new superman rom

I didn't try it myself but maybe it will work:
Just delete S Health completely from system/app and get an older version (e.g. 4.8) from apkmirror. Install that apk as a regular user app and let it update. Some people claim that this method worked for them.
Root dont work

S6 SM-G920P BoostMobile G920PVPU3BOL1 5.1.1 STOCK Root XposedFW Viper4A 2020

Stock out of box Samsung Galaxy S6 From Boost Mobile.
Disclaimer >>>Might Work With the Sprint S6, since Boost is just the prepay of Sprint, the same phone I think...
First to say this is a rare find (2015 Release) but if you can get your hands on this awesome handset it has, 8Cores, 32Gb of Memory, 16mp.Cam, and as far as i know the Last Samsung Galaxy With the iR Blaster. So I take No-Responsibility to any Malfunctions or Broken Devices. Personally Had Little to Zero Problems Achieving this I would say This is the Best, Most stable Rooted Device i'v ever owned.
Im Posting here expecting that everyone knows what ROOT, TWRP, CWM, SuperSU is, Developer Mode/How to activate, how to reboot to recovery/Download Mode, Flash via Odin, and use TWRP.
I'll try to put this whole thing in chronological order. so out of box... or anyone who can restore their device back to this build BOL1It Works Flawlessly, Very-Fast/ResponsiveSystem Wide Equalizer>V4A-starts on boot, Xposed FW, Xprivacy, Lightning Wall, and The Google PlayStore still works.
Take Phone out of box [UNACTIVATED/NOSIM/AIRPLANE] LoL... Turn on at home alone... DO NOT CONNECT TO WiFi/DATA it will force update BOL1. Dont sign in google Acc. or Samsung Acc. SET UP http://wakasoftware.com/app-freezer-setup/ Once Completed With Freezer App Set up Reboot and Freeze The following Apk.'s
Search (Update) in Freezer app. You should find [com.sec.android.fotaclient, com.wssyncmldm, com.sec.fwservice, com.sprint.ce.updater, and [NOT100%ON com.policydm] Disable them. Next search sprint in Freezer; Disable every apk. listed under sprint search [com.sprint.zone, com.sprint.psdg.sw, com.samsung.sprint.chameleon, com.sprint.w.installer, com.sprint.ce.updater, com.sprint.w.prefact, com.sprint.dsa, com.samsung.sprint.setupwizard, and com.sprint.voicemail]
You can probably leave voicemail enabled boost has theirs installed anyways. Not sure if sprint-Vmail works or not. Go ahead and freeze any bloat ware or apps you don't want. Disable at own risk. If something messes anything up, reboot to recovery, factory reset, then start over lol
THIS WILL TRIP KNOX
Alright now go developer options and turn on OEM unlocking (allow the Bootloader to be unlocked) Now im going to thank (spammy l) XDA Member for this post https://forum.xda-developers.com/sp...ainfire-autoroot-stock-custom-kernel-t3294308
Follow That Root Method-Just USE THE LATEST SuperSU & TWRP instead. Im on [SU 2.82-SR3] & [twrp-3.3.1-0-zerofltespr] Once obtained Root, an have installed TWRP&BUSYBOX; Create a Custom Recovery backup-TWRP BEFORE you go on to install XposedFW.
You can connect to WiFi/Data, set up google, samsung accounts, and activate wireless services/put SiM Card Back/Disable-airplane-mode now that you have the sprint apps disabled. WARNING if you root this without sprint apps disabled sprint will detect root on the phone and try to force update and continuously restart the phone only 10seconds or so after bootup. I did not know this when i first activated my services. Even after i turned off wifi and pulled the sim card out it was still rebooting only 10seconds after bootup. Giving me only moments to navigate to freezer app and search ''sprint'' and freeze freeze freezze.... so thats why we freeze them first. Also by disabling the sprint Apk. s it Removed the Boost Mobile Boot Animation not sure which one but just FYI just see stock samsung boot.img cool still.
Next have to Thank (wanam Contributor/Developer) For Their Forum( https://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/unofficial-xposed-samsung-lollipop-t3180960 ) on how to install XposedFW For [5.1/6.0]Lollipop/Marshmallow. Follow That to get Xposed Installed properly. Once flashed it dose take a few minuets to startup, it will boot cycle a couple times, be patient.
Last but my personal favorite piece of software to place in to the system, ViPER4Android-FX 2.5.0.5
My last shout-out goes to (kevintm78 Senior Member) for his method on installing V4A The Proper Way. Here (https://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4/themes-apps/how-to-viper4android-install-proper-t3691597) after all that you should make a new custom recovery point to save your work. Thanks to all just wanted to put all that into one place for this specific build of phone.
A Few Apk. s to Mention
--Galaxy Universal Remote Version 4.1.3 out there on the web<<aptoid
--XBooster-Free Version 5.1.2 PlayStore
--Physical Button Music Control Version 4.0 beta6 Xposed Module
--lightningWall Version 3.9.2 Xposed Module
--APM+ (Advanced Power Menu) Version 17.12 Xposed Module
--XPrivacy Version 3.6.19 Xposed Module
--Flappy Bird Version 1.3 lol...

Not hiding root

Hello, I've recently installed the newest version of LineageOS17.1 on my beloved S5. I'm using Magisk (latest version) and I tried hiding my root via 1st - changing the package name and 2nd - Magisk Hide. I used to play a lot of Pokemon GO and it was working perfectly fine on LineagesOS 15, back then. Sadly, it's no longer working - this time, however, I'm using my phone not only for Pokemon GO (that inflicts a problem with rooted phones) but also a bank app. It's crucial for me to use the bank app as it has a limit and whenever I'd like to spend >50$, I have to enter a code which is generated on the app only. So, is there a way to properly hide my root?
I'm on LineageOS17.1, with mod for increased speaker volume and custom kernel (Tuned Kernel by fbs).

Did you try toggling Magisk hide off/on as per Magisk support thread?
https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/magisk/mod-magisk-v1-universal-systemless-t3432382
@Didgeridoohan has a good article on the matter here:
https://didgeridoohan.com/magisk/MagiskHide#hn_Hiding_root_from_apps
Principially Magisk Hide is working in this state and e. g. my banking app was, too.
Other users have full support, but i don't know what's wrong here.
Everything Magisk was special when i tried Los17. Bootlooping after a Magisk update with successful reboot after the umpteenth time.
Endless boot after installation of the Youtube Vanced module. Entering TWRP at boot also was impossible(but you could access Fastboot), but there seemed to be some watchdog timer and after about 30min Twrp came up instead of the os.
