(Advice): How to use snapchat with root (no Xposed needed) - Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion

If you are currently using snapchat with are rooted device you may have had the problem of not being able to log into your account. This is due to snapchats new update which allows it to block your account if it detects a rooted device.
There is a very easy fix for this.
steps:
1- you need to get rid of your root ( normally if you go in the SuperSu app' there will be an option)
2- Once unrooted, login into your snapchat account which should work now
3- If you are sure it worked. You can re-root your device by flashing SuperSu again
thank you for your support !

If you have any problem, just tell me and I will try to resond as soon as possible

Another option is to use titanium backup to do a backup of Snapchat while logged in, then proceed with root and xposed. You can restore the backup and it'll work. If at any time you accidentally log out, you can just restore the app again.

Don't you already have to have root to use titanium backup?

This did not work. I am still getting a please try again login failed error.

[Q] Titanium Backup not working on Lollipop no matter what

Hi guys, my Titanium Backup 6.2.0.3 has backed up 80 apps on android KitKat. Everything was allright back then, all backups were verified. So i tried Lollipop yesterday, and i tried to restore those apps. Nope, it just hang. TB was allright, i tried to change everything in settings, every mode etc. but it just didnt work. Nothing. So i flashed SuperSU 2.40, as some people talked about it on the forum (i had Ressurection Remix, last version). Nothing. I changed my ROM, now i have Vanir. TB restores DATA, but just data. It can not restore any app, even without the data. The android installer method works (user installation of apk + TB restore of data) but doing that to 80 apps? Seriously?
I solved it, I wrote a How-To here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g2/help/how-to-restore-kitkat-apps-titanium-t3005385
So i verified those backup in Lollipop. It says 162 errors. In 80 backups theres 162 errors. I did not do anything with the backups. What's the problem? Why is it corrupted? I don't get it.
So i went back to KitKat and guess what? All backups are confirmed as allright, i can restore them and everything.
I found a solution to this.
Which is?

batch restore
Some apps are not compatible with Lollipop, so when you do a batch restore using TB, take note of apps that breaks the batch restore process and exclude them in the next batch restore attempt. Or else it will keep breaking the restore process. I have used TB on Lollipop successfully.
Thank you very much.

That was not the problem. On the ROM's thread more people complained about the problem, some people even suggested using Helium instead. However, I found a solution that restored ALL apps without any problem from the backups created by Titanium Backup.
Here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3005385
No need to do all that. The problem is with Lollipop denying permissions from apps to modify folders and files. Just enter SuperSu and in Settings, under Security, find "Mount namespace separation" and untick it. Then restart your phone and Titanium Backup should be able to back up and restore again.

Snapchat after root

I recently did a full restore and re-rooted after running into some issues the first time. Now Snapchat will now allow me to sign in because of the device being rooted. I have done some googling and have tried the "rootcloak" method through xposed but it seems as though it is not able to hide root from Snapchat like it is supposed to. Does anyone have any ideas as to how to get past this without doing another restore?
Are you having an issue logging in? I had an issue logging in, but I disable xposed using the uninstall script, logged in, and reinstalled it (with all my settings intact) and it has been working fine since.
Thank you! Was just able to sign in after uninstalling xposed signing in and re installing xposed. Haha I was over thinking and trying too hard.
You can use Casper.io if Snapchat keeps being an issue.

The uninstall script that I have used in the download link in this forum :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/unofficial-xposed-samsung-lollipop-t3180960
Im not sure where you got your xposed install or if this will work or if it will cause problems so use at your own risk but it works perfect for me because I got my install from this post
Doesn't work for me on S7Edge.
Running just a debloated version of stock software. Uninstalled framework and Xposed App but still the same SnapChat Login problem. Anyone else have any ideas how to get around this? I'm considering changing back to stock.
Make sure your account isn't locked out. I ran into this issue with note4 after rooting.
Where is the uninstall script, because I have this same issue on my galaxy s7 Verizon after I rooted and I want to try to uninstall xpossed and then reinstall it after I log into snapchat.

In the Xposed sub-forum.
Another option that works is to log into Snapchat before rooting the device. After rooting, make a titanium backup of Snapchat (including the data, of course). Once you've done that, you can just use that backup file to restore the data on any version of Snapchat, and it will function correctly on any Android device, even if the device is rooted.

Hey, I actually did that, but as soon as I try something in Snapchat it will log me out. Any ideas?
I have s7 edge, rooted with xposed.
I wasn't able to log into snapchst until I did this.
1, used a different phone that was rooted but didn't have xposed installed.
2, logged into snapchat
3, used titanium backup to backup snapchat
4, I used titanium backup on my s7 edge to backup snapchat
5, I renamed the files, 3 of them, from the working backup to the same name that titanium backup saved the file names on my s7 edge.
6, I used titanium backup to restore the data,
7, opened app and I was logged in and haven't had issues so far.

Snapchat no longer letting me sign in

I have a G935A. Snapchat was working fine, then i rooted and it was still working fine. When i installed xposed it stopped working. I read its a common problem with snapchat, so i uninstalled xposed and it still didnt work. I tried restoring the phone 3 times and nothing has worked. All it says is my login failed. I can sign into the account on an iPhone and i can make a new account on my S7, but i cant sign into my regular account. Any suggestions?
Did you remove xposed app or uninstall xposed ? You must flash xposed uninstaller via TWRP.
Happened to me once on a different phone after xposed was installed.
Two methods are:
1. Flash Xposed uninstalled with TWRP - login to snapchat, installed xposed frameworks again.
2. Have another rooted device (no xposed) - sign into snapchat, use Titanium backup to backup snapchat, Make sure u CLEAR the data for snapchat on that phone or delete the app, don't log out!, Use titanium backup on your root S7 Edge phone (with or withour xposed) and restore that file.
You should be automatically logged in.

Yes uninstalling the app directly from your phone just stops u from controlling xposed u have to Uninstall the framework with flashfire or TWRP.. If you have already tried that I had this same problem the other day.. I actually heard that snapchat is now checking for actual just root as well.. I Uninstalled root completely logged in then re rooted and re installed xposed. Sounds like a lot but it's worth it. Only takes 10 minutes.
if you have a backup like titanium backup of the snapchat app AFTER you've logged into it, i think you should be able to restore it without having to uninstall xposed..

I've tried flashing the uninstall package multiple times, the Xposed app says no framework is installed. I've also reflashed the stock firmware multiple times trying to fix this issue and NOTHING is working. I tried backing up snapchat on another rooted phone and restoring it on the s7 and that didn't work either. This is extremely frustrating

Did you clean up and fully unroot your phone? Root is now being checked for
FIX
ONLY FOR THOSE WITH SUPERSU ROOT
Facedthe same problem today mate this is how i did it and just takes you couple of minutes
just temporaily unroot your phone with your SuperSU app if it still does'nt work. if you uninstalled xposed.
you will see that you are gonna be able to snapchat right the moment you are unrooted.
login
grab yourself a flashable zip of supersu to re-root your phone and flash it with TWRP
you should be logged in and have you root
make sure to get titanium backup right away if you didnt have it already and BACKUP your snapchat app + data.
saves you from doing this all over again if you ever should be logged out of snapchat.
for the new roms with magisk v7
i cant figure out how to do since since we cant en/disable our root anymore (correct me if am wrong cause i dont know how to do it with the new magisk manager )
automagisk wont do the trick so i dont know
hit thanks if this helped you.

you have supersu or magisk root?
if you updated form supersu to magisk without wiping data this could be you problem..
go to twrp ---> wipe ----> Format data
type yes
log in with your unrooted phone
re root phone
get yourself a backup of the app with titanium backup
please let me know if this worked for you
Hello,
I've got a question about snapchat.
I'm sorry if im posting this in the wrong place, im new here!
I want to use snapchat 9.3.1.0 so i can use snapprefs.
I'm rooted and have xposed framework installed.
I am currently logged in in the newest snapchat version.
I made a backup of my snapchat with TB, deleted the new version of snapchat, installed snapchat 9.3.1.0, opened titanium backup and restored 'DATA ONLY'.
When i open snapchat, the app says: There are no snaps, and it says i've got no friends (which makes me sad). Any idea how i can fix this?
Thank you!
Lorenzo

Hi mate,
I wanna do what you did, as in full unroot then login then re-root. I just wanted to ask do I need to have any custom recovery software installed before doing this? I rooted my phone with ODIN. I DONT have XPOSED installed contrary to what EVERYONE in this forum keeps saying that i only have to uninsall xposed lol.
I have a rooted s5 too so could I potentially login on snapchat on that then create a titanium backup of the app+data then transfer across to me s7edge? That is how I initially remained logged in on snapchat when switching from the s5 to the s7 edge.
Please help! everyone else is just being vague!!

You could just fully unroot within the supersu app re login and then use Odin to re root. .. Or use your s5 to log in and back it up and transfer to your s7.. But you'd have to unroot your s5 if you did it thst way.

Thanks mate. I did it the s5 way and created a back up to restore on s7 edge device. Could have just done it the s7 unroot reroot. Would have been easier lol. Thank you.

I love casper for that function exactly, you can watch peoples stories (stalk) without them knowing. The root session used to keep me logged in on both but I think SC have found a way to detect root use of a third part app which is a shame. Not sure if anyone knows how to mask casper from SC at all on here?

I never thought about that. But yes casper was nice for that. And if I could mask it I would again use it.

Root breaks Snapchat login but once you're logged in, you can root and it will continue working. Unfortunately though, since you're already rooted, you can try to use something like RootCloak (no idea if that works with Snapchat) to hide the fact you're rooted or else unroot, login and then re-root.
@treela is correct.
I am on Nougat (NPJ25.93-14).
What I did - Rooted my phone using Magisk and enabled Magisk Hide.
Snapchat logs in even after rooting.

I'm confused what version of Xposed should I install? Arm, Arm64, or x86? I need Xposed before I get root cloak.
phh's superuser works fine with SnapChat. SuperSU does not in my experience.
Although, the foolproof way is to, on another device, install Snapchat, log in, THEN root, and install Titanium Backup and make a backup. After that, copy the files from your /storage/emulated/0/TitaniumBackup or whatever other directory (there should be a couple gzip files), and transfer those to an SDcard. On your new device, pop in the SD (or usb-otg), install Titanium Backup, transfer the files and then restore DATA ONLY. Just make a backup once and you shouldn't have to do it ever again.

Snapchat on rooted LG V20

I am trying to login to Snapchat but it keeps saying there's an error with the login and I found out it is because I am rooted. A fix I found involves full unroot and I don't want to do that. Can anyone help me?
Snapchat
Ive used snapchat rooted. On mutiple roms.
Snapchat for some devices (like the v20 now) is checking for root. It's hit or miss really. On my VS995 Snapchat wouldn't work till I did suhide. So you'll have to most likely use Magisk or SU-Hide or some kind of root hiding thing to get past it.
Just install Snapchat on a other device, log in, make a backup with Titanium Backup and load it on your main device.
This worked for my rooted S5 KLTE

magisk hide is option 1

full unroot, sign in, then re-flash the supersu zip to re root is option 3
restore a app+data backup from a logged in device using backup app like titanium is option 4..

Personally i feel option 2 is easiest but not all kernels like it.
I wish these things could be put in to roms so when we flash them, there's no alternate flashing needed that could cause issues.. I had nothing but issues tryna get both of those options to work, but again it was probably kernel related so I just gave up on it..

Actually, the Stock deOdexed US996 ROM has them built into it, also allows for hotspot provisioning without having to edit anything. I've been running it for a few months now, and been flawless on every aspect, other than it disables the ability to use MyVerizon apps, and Verizon's visual voicemail.
