What's the current status of rooting a 6p in dev4 N? I've tried to search and look around and from what I gather there was a systemless root which worked well, but Google has caught on and it doesn't work as well. My primary concerns are I'm on Project Fi, and having Android Pay work.

Searching the internet for an answer, haven't found one yet. Any way to be rooted and use Xposed AND use Android pay?
I haven't found one, but I remember reading in the PureNexus thread that someone thought they're working on it. Its still early days.
Root there is a way, xposed there is not as it modifies a few system libs.
No, you cannot have Xposed and working Android Pay.
Yet....
hey, I'm an avid Samsung user who's taken the plunge to the Rooted Nougat firmware. Now I understand that there's no xposed progress, but my question is: Does anyone know of a method or app to hide Root from basic applications with Root detection ? my job requires an app, and it just recently started denying access to rooted devices. The built in disabler for Supersu does not work. And I know it isn't safetynet based because the xposed module "Security Bypasser" is all that was needed to get by it before I switched to Nougat. any help or insight is appreciated.
Hello good folks of XDA
I have a stock A2017G. I would like to have root access as I really like safety and flexibility that Titanium Backup gives me. I would also like to be able to play Pokemon GO and perhaps use banking apps and Android Pay. I am a big fan of FolderMount too but perhaps with 64GB internal memory, this won't be so important. I'm not really bothered about custom ROMs as there tends to be issues (I spent ages getting everything to work on Ambasadii on my SGS4) but may move to Resurrection Remix once it's settled down.
I think that means that I should install Magisk. Can any UK user share with me a set up that will give me systemless root on an A2017G? I've read the forums in detail but I can't see anything definitive and there's lots of discussion of various modems etc.
Thank you!
Hello
I've read around this a lot here and elsewhere and I can't seem to get a definitive answer as to the best solution to the root I'd like. I would like to use TiBu and play PokemonGO (and perhaps use the Barclays UK banking app). It looked like Magisk was the way to do this with Nougat 7.0. This video:

Which is also shown here in a series of screenshots:
http://galaxys7root.com/galaxy-s7-s...s7-or-s7-edge-on-android-7-0-nougat-w-magisk/
...would seem to do what I want. But I expect I would use updated versions of Magisk etc.
I can see threads on here that would indicate that Magisk is now not able to help you pass safetynet with a rooted phone but I think that may be for updated versions of Android and 7.0 may still be OK.
Can anyone confirm that the rooting method shown here is sensible. Or, failing that, the best way to achieve what I want with a currently stock G930FD running 7.0?
Thanks
Maqgisk does by pass safetynet.
Magisk has it own root now built in.
the links you have provided user older versions of magisk without dated installation methods.
Install twrp on your phone then magisk v.14. you do not need any other files.

Thanks! That's the kind of definitive answer I was looking for.
Btw, which Android version are you on? I have an update available that I can download but not sure I should. As I said, I'm on 7.0 so not sure what I'd end up on if I updated.
As I like TouchWiz but would like to reduce the bloat, I am tempted by the Superman ROM, which makes the update point moot.

I am on a custom s8 7.0 rom called galaxy project.
So not seeing much on Google when I tried which is to be expected really... I'm calling for a little bit of help so I can make a modification to a particular line in the build.prop for the Z5c.
Since I flashed LineageOS during the night, I'm mostly back up and running save for one thing: Google Pay. Because of that pesky SafetyNet API (curse you Google...), I can't use it right now because the CTS check fails in Magisk. I've tried a couple things already to no avail, since that error is related to the certification for device compatibility for Play Store and other things.
Code:
resetprop ro.build.fingerprint OnePlus/OnePlus3/OnePlus3T:8.0.0/OPR6.170623.013/12041042:user/release-keys
I took this from another thread in the Magisk forum, but I need the stock Z5c fingerprint for whichever release, preferably the latest 7.1.1 Nougat firmware if anyone has it available. If I'd known I would need this, I would of gotten it myself. Hopefully someone can help out with this since that blasted CTS check is what's preventing me from using Google Pay at the moment.

1. You can install Universal SafetyNet fix and CTS will pass.
2. Google Pay won't work anyway because NFC issues on Lineage.
I went through like 40 of those pages and I've seen many conflicting reports about that particular module either working or not. Plus, it hasn't been updated since v14 of Magisk making it fairly old.

It works, I'm using it ATM.
So it is apparently. Too bad NFC is utterly broke for me in LineageOS.. oh well.
