Nexus 6, Samsung Pay (via Gear S3) and Root [6/27/17] - Nexus 6 General

Figured I'd start an official thread on this subject since it's a little test project of mine.
AS ALWAYS, WHEN MODIFYING YOUR DEVICE, MAKE A NANDROID BACKUP FIRST!
First off, your ROM needs to pass SafetyNet for Samsung Pay to work. Secondly, Samsung Pay looks for certain things in the ROM. If it detects these things, it will error out saying the device is rooted, even if not rooted.
In order to get Samsung Pay working on a rooted ROM, you need to use MagiskHide, hiding the Samsung Pay app. I have used both Magisk 12 and Magisk 13 beta (96f8efc) for testing.
What I've found is it looks for and throw a root error if it finds:
Not passing SafetyNet
Busybox
Test Keys in build.prop
I have found the remedy for the root error is to delete Busybox (typically in system/xbin or system/bin) and editing your build.prop, replacing Test-Keys with Release-Keys.
If you don't want to mess with these steps, here are the ROMs that I've found work and don't work with Samsung Pay out of the box:
- Pure Nexus = SP detects root, even if unrooted.
- SIX = SP detects root, probably because it's based on PN
- SCREWD = SP detects root (don't recall if this passes SafetyNet)
- Resurrection Remix = SP detects root
- Factory = SP works fine unrooted, works fine with root and Magiskhide
- Vanilla ROM = SP works fine unrooted, works fine with root and Magiskhide, works fine with stock kernel
- LineageOS = SP works fine unrooted, works fine with root and Magiskhide, works fine with stock kernel
- Crdoid (LOS Based) = SP works fine unrooted, works fine with root and Magiskhide, works fine with stock kernel
- Dirty Unicorns = SP works fine unrooted, works fine with root and Magiskhide, works fine with stock kernel
2017-06-27 Update:
Updated to Magisk Beta 54e6a79
Installed Osm0sis's Busybox, which installs as a Magisk Module
Installed HEBF Battery Optimizer
Safetynet still passes. Samsung Pay still passes.

Magisk should be able to hide its built-in busybox (up until v12) or a busybox Magisk module (like the one in osm0sis' Odds and ends thread.

Great! Didn't know osm0sis had a BusyBox Magisk module.

It's an all-in-one installer. If it detects Magisk it'll install as a Magisk module. It has to be flashed in TWRP.

Spay is working fine with root but the app can't be used since it detected root.
Has anyone manages to by pass it?

That's what the OP is all about.
I'm currently on SIX (Pure Nexus base) and it's working fine. But I had to modify the build.prop, remove BusyBox and make sure the kernel is set to enforcing.

I'm running the Pixel, I'm going to give this a run on LOS and report back. Thanks for putting this together.
Update:
Switched to a LOS rom, still had test keys in the build prop so I fixed that. Passing safetynet. Used Magisk hide on everything pay and samsung related but it is still detecting for me. Again this is on a Pixel so take my experience with a grain of salt and don't let it stop you from trying on your Nexus.

Omg
I think @MrBrady is a genius. Delete busy box and checked if release keys is there fixed the issue.
Look
This needs to be in gear 3 sections and s8 plus one too

I too was trying to figure out the culprit for months and felt "stuck" to sticking with ROMs I'd prefer not to use. It's a cat-and-mouse game with the manufacturers, but I'm glad we're ahead of the curve for now.

There are a few different places Busybox can live. I don't know all of them off the top of my head, but I'd suggest using a root file manager and search for Busybox. Alternatively, you can look in system/bin or system/xbin or /bin. I think sometimes it can be in the /vendor folder (or subfolder) as well.

Yeah I searched didn't find busybox. I also missed one of the callouts for test keys, fixed that but no dice.

I will flash Dark Rom + Franco Kernel + Magisk, will test on Gear S3 and report here

It is also worth trying iSu:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/isu-simple-app-to-deactivate-activate-t3478348
Use it instead of Magisk on LOS-based roms.

Had a strange issue yesterday and unfortunately didn't take a scientific approach to it.
Installed an older May security release of Blackbird kernel (went from June or May) and also lowered my screen resolution to 1080 (makes my phone run smoother).
I think one of those things borked Samsung Pay. SP on the phone didn't report any issues but when I open it on the watch, it shows my credit card, then has an alert saying "Contact Customer Service) or something along those lines.
I undid both the things mentioned above, deleted my card, readded the card (called bank to verify) and all is good again.
Even updated to the latest Magisk beta released this morning and things are fine still.

Tried dark rom + Franco kernel + magisk 12.0 with magisk hide but safety net didn't pass. Uninstalled 12.0 and installed beta 13, safety net passed and could run Android pay too but Samsung Pay detected root even with busybox disabled and Magisk hide enabled. Any workarounds available?

Make sure BusyBox is deleted from the ROM, not just disabled in Magisk. Make sure build.prop says Release Keys not Test Keys.

I installed busybox to check if it's installed or not, it says it isn't. I anyway clicked on uninstall in the app. Also, could you guide me for replacing test keys with release keys? Do I just need to replace test with release in build prop?
Edit: changed build prop to release keys and now Samsung Pay updated to 1.5 and doesn't detect root! Thanks a ton! :highfive:

Empty galaxy rom...
I just wanted to let you know that I have it installed and have been messing with it for about an hour. Everything seems to be running quickly. So far the only thing I have noticed is that it seems to be running a little warm. I will report back with anything else I come across. Good work!!
I've been working on the theme but the ui is new to me. Still finding stuff. Thanks though @ITSAHERO hopefully as it set in it evened out the temp.
Couple questions
Hello there,
I am interested in installing the completely debloated version you did. Is the IR Blaster and the finger print unlocking the device working? Thanks in advance!!
I haven't tried the ir but finger print works. And you're very welcome.
I'll try the ir and report back. I'm in the middle of an install so it'll be a few..
Added
IR: Tested and fully operational
Best rom I've used.
Hi, downloaded the empty ROM on my tab s t700. Personally I'm not a fan of Nova so I tried installing google now launcher but it doesn't work for me? It installs and stuff alright but it just force closes on me. Now, I'm coming to this ROM from ironrom on which I was running google now launcher but I just can't get it to work on here. Am I the only one a facing this problem?
I'll download and try and report back.
Added-
Yes. You're right.
I removed Google search, sometimes I use yahoo so I like it out.
To use Google Now you need to first install Google search and go through initial setup then download and install Google Now.
The OP has been updated and the Empty Galaxy version has been updated to 1.3.
I had hoped to add a theme to it but it's taking more time than I thought to find everything.
If I get to a usable point with it I'll upload.
The rom ive been waiting for.. thanks dev.. what kernel suits best with it? Can you recemmend any?
I've been using the stock kernel so I can't really recommend yet. I'll give what's available a try today.
I'm using sky-high kernel with this rom, I have to say, my tab S 8.4 has never been smoother, almost as quick as my nexus 9.
Is this a US firmware? I have been using it and lost access to wifi channels 12 and 13. The tab could not detect my home network anymore. Europe here... Thx for all the work you've put into this.

My apologies, that didn't even cross my mind. This is a backup ran through a rom kitchen and cleaned up. But it was an ota so I've got to assume it's US. If I get a chance I'll look into it.
Best RoM used yet! Keep up the good work.
Thanks.. I'm not sure where I'm at with development on the tab s. Glad the roms are getting used. I'm still waiting for the official nl2 download. My favorite thing about the tab is having a device not connected to a carrier! And it really makes it so we don't need very many apps to start.

Rooting the Sony Xperia and installing Xposed installer, my nightmare and you.

Hey guys so I had a REALLY hard time rooting my Sony Xperia Z3 phone without breaking BL and then installing Xposed was also a nightmare because the system wouldn't go writable. So I thought I'd document my experience for others below and what I did to over come after much google searching.
It begins: The flash
So flashing the phone was a nightmare and it will be for you to if you use Windows 8. I followed the guide here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/z3/general/guide-rootrecovery-how-to-root-install-t3017056 to downgrade my kernel to a rootable version of Android KitKat. However I couldn't get the flash tool to see the phone. To overcome this I had to install the flash tool drivers (Which are in the flash tool folder) installing flash tool drivers and Sony Xperia Z3 drivers in the list. To over come this you will need to disable driver signature verification or the install will fail. Guide on doing that here: http://www.howtogeek.com/167723/how...8.1-so-that-you-can-install-unsigned-drivers/
Once you've done that you can install the root in the original guide no problem. Installing Xposed Framework is another matter because you will probably find that you receive an error regarding unable to write to system or mount it as readable. To fix this some suggested downloading ES File Explorer and mounting the system there. This didn't work for me either because it just came up with an error after popping up SuperSU for permission. So to fix this I searched for "Mount system ro/rw" in the Google play store and it's very easy just one click on RW and you're done! go back to Xposed and you'll find that you'll be able to install the framework in system. Here is the one I downloaded: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.blogspot.superthomaslab.mountsystemrorw&hl=en_GB
I thought I'd write this because all of this information seems scattered across the internet and hopefully it will help someone else and save them a day and a half of headache. Good Luck!
Thanks for the guide.
The RW permission may also be obtained by flashing RICDefeat.zip at https://github.com/dosomder/SonyRICDefeat by using recovery.
Seriously? You must not have flashed a lot of phones. Flashtool is a breeze compared to other ****s out there, it only gets a bit harder because of windows 8. Once the drivers are installed you are good to go.
HTC phones, on the other hand....
I had Samsung and HTC for the last few months (and Z2/Z3 of course) and I can say one thing...
Sony is the most user friendly among all the others...
We have Flashtool and awesome devs that are working fantastic things for us...
For us, users that have Xperia devices for a long time, flashing ftf, setting recovery and rooting Xperia with a tools we have is a few minutes task...
Xposed is working without any problems also

Funky what did you do for working Xposed? I didnt tried it yet, i dont have Time to reinstall my Phone if its not working even tho i think i get it working but i rather wait until its stable or someone confirms it

Luck has nothing to do with it....Rovio69 has
Simply install xposed framework shell and restart to recovery.
You have to flash xposed-arm-20150308.zip from recovery because you can't install framework from xposed like we used to do...

The only flaw is : when you restarting device you have to clear davlik cache - and that's really not that difficult..

very well I knew that.. but for me when I clear cache every time I reboot the modules are active but not working.. for example "20 MP superior auto" ... I'm using xposed especially for this module.. I hope there is a way to make 20 mp in superior auto without xposed

You need to have proper setup, then 20MP Superior Auto works with exposed and you don't need to clear Dalvik and cache on reboot.
First you need working root, recovery and full rw system.
Second you need SELinux permanently set permissive, as it blocks 20MP Superior Auto module from working.
First and second you can achieve by installing Xzdualrecovery.
Third you need to remove lot of Sony crap from firmware. There are two threads by @serajr and @moly82 who made debloating zips that you can flash. Unfortunately we don't know yet which of this many removed apps causes bootloops.
So once again, Lollipop, root, Xzdualrecovery, SELinux permissive and massive debloating makes Xposed working.

Yes, there are minimally 4-5 threads on this topic. As Xposed for Lollipop is alpha, there are probably compatibility problems with some apps. Removing majority of Sony apps (like Lifelog, small apps&framework) and Google apps (Books, Movies etc.) makes it better, removing bootloops with some modules (20MP Superior Auto for example). However, we dont know exactly which app or apps are causing that problem. So majority of people remove just everything except essential services and some camera add-ons.

[Guide] Bypass Safetynet on MM with Custom ROM & Kernel

(Please note that I am not responsible if your phone bricks etc. Please use at your own risk! Myself and others who have also tested this bypass have had no reported issues of this bypass causing some sort of brick etc., but I cannot guarantee anything.)
__________________________________​
*UPDATED*
Since October 2016, Google has (yet again) changed their way on how SafetyNet works and how they can now easily figure out if your phone is rooted or not. This caused many issues for rooted Android users who wanted to play games such as PKMNGO and use apps such as Snapchat. However, there is still ways to bypass SafetyNet.
Tested Devices:
- Samsung Galaxy S6
- Samsung Galaxy S5
- Samsung Galaxy S7
*Looking for people with other devices to try and see if it works for themselves so I can add the device to the list.*
__________________________________​
Requirements:
- Basic Understanding on how to use Custom Recovery, flashing zip files etc.
- Running on Android 6.0+/7.0+
- Phone has a custom recovery (I suggest TWRP) and on a Custom ROM. (Stock roms "should" work too.)
- Rom should have November 1st Security update or older updates. (Have not tested with roms with November 5th Security update and higher.)
- Magisk V11.1 & Magisk Manager 4.1
- SafetyNet Checker
- Phh Super User APK. PlayStore or 2.0 Beta
- Root File Explorer. I suggest Root Browser
- Kernel Adiutor
- Root Checker
(If you cannot bypass with Xposed, use Root Switch!)
Tutorial
**WARNING: BIG IMAGES** (Had no time to resize them, but will soon.)
Before we begin, I suggest that you make a Nandroid backup through your preferred Custom Recovery. I suggest you use TWRP however CWM "should" work, but I have not tried myself.
Step 1:
Clean Install
The first step 'is' optional, however it is recommended that you do a clean install. I will be using Alexis Rom 8.0 Beta 2 for my Galaxy S6, but any rom should work. (Other than certain GraceUX ports, but am able to get it to work with other ported rom like CoreUi (a MIUI port) for the Galaxy S6). You should also flash a kernel now as well. I use to personally use Arter97 as SuperSU is not installed in this kernel, however Arter97 is slowly starting to become unstable as it hasn't been updated and there is better kernels out there. For this tutorial, I will be using Twisted Kernel.
Step 2:
Removing SuperSU
This step is 'also' optional, but ONLY if your rom/kernel does not automatically install SuperSU for you. In my case, it is automatically installed.
What you will need to do is to go to the SuperSU app, go to settings.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Scroll down until you see "Full unroot" and click it.
A popup will come up and click "Continue", then followed by another popup and click "NO".
Once you click no, your phone will freeze and then reboot. You should then install Root Checker to verify if your phone is unrooted.
(If for some reason, you are unable to use the SuperSU app but you know SuperSU is installed, I'd suggest you download UPDATE-unSU-signed.zip and flash it as it will manually remove SuperSU.)
Step 3:
Installing required APKs.
You will now need to install MagiskManager 4.2.6, SafetyNet Helper Sample, PHH Super User APK, Root Browser and Kernel Adiutor.
Step 4:
Flashing MagiskV11.1
You will need to reboot into your custom recovery and flash "Magisk-v10.2.zip", followed by rebooting. If you receive ERROR: 1 in TWRP when it is trying to mount SU, I suggest reflashing a kernel (and re-remove SuperSU), uninstalling Magisk with MagiskUninstaller (in Magisk thread) and reinstall Magisk V11.1, or reinstalling your rom.
Once you have flashed the file, reboot into System and open Magisk Manager to verify you have installed Magisk. A little pop up will open to allow Magisk to have root. Make sure to click allow and set it so it has root for "Forever".
If it states that root isn't properly installed, manually flash PHH Super User V266-2. (Useless now as Magisk-V11+ has MagiskSU built into the main file and the Super User manager is built into Magisk Manager.)
Step 5:
Enabling Magisk Hide
In Magisk Manager, go to the side menu and go to "Settings." You will see an unchecked box that says "Enable Magisk Hide." Select it and reboot. Re-open Magisk Manager and verify that it is now check marked. If the App crashes when you select "Enable Magisk Hide", reboot your phone and retry.
Step 6:
Set Permissions
In Root Browser, go to the directory "/sys/fs/selinux" and find the file "enforce" and the file "policy". On the file "enforce", change the permissions of the file from "644" to "640", and for the file "policy", change the permissions of the file from "444" to "440". If MagiskSU pops up and asks for root access, click "Allow."
Once you are done, open up SafetyNet Helper Sample and it 'should' pass. If you are getting "Response Validation Failed" and the background is blue, uninstall Magisk by flashing Magisk Uninstaller, flash UPDATE-unSU-signed.zip, then reflash Magisk V11.1. Then, go back to Step 5 and enable Magisk Hide.
Step 7:
Use Kernel Adiutor to automatically set permissions in init.d
This last step is 'optional', however it automates the permission setting as every time you reboot your system, the file permissions will reset. Open up Kernel Adiutor, go to the sidebar and scroll down until you see 'Init.d'. Click it and make sure "Emulate Init.d" is enabled.
Then click the plus button, set the name to "Permissions" and then add the following script:
"chmod 640 /sys/fs/selinux/enforce" and "chmod 440 /sys/fs/selinux/policy" and save the files.
Also allow root access to Kernel Adiutor!
Step 8:
Reboot
Reboot your device, let Kernel Adiutor do its countdown (you will see in the notifications drop down) and once it says "Applying settings completed!", open up Safetynet and you should be passing!
If you're still not passing, try disabling USB Debugging in Developer Options!

Thanks. Been using this way to bypass for 2 months now and when I realized not a lot of people knew how to do it, I knew I needed to write a tutorial. It has only not worked with one ROM I tried but worked with a variety of other roms. XtreStoLite, Alexis, CoreUi, MIUI Port etc. Note, I did not originally "find" it but there is no real guide to follow it like how I have written it above.
Thank you for this it works great! Pokémon Go here we come ?
You could also make a "stock" kernel with only the bypass by SultanXDA to make it easier for users

Worked well for me on Galaxy S7 SM-G930F with SuperMan-Rom 1.18.1
I'll try with Xposed later.
Thanks for sharing this great tutorial!
EDIT : This method with Magisk 10.2 + Xposed does NOT work
very interested to see if xposed can be bypassed

Haven't really went and tried it yet. However I don't think it is currently possible. Been busy recently etc etc.
Also, there 'is' supposedly a bug where settings would crash and that would cause issues. If that is the case, I suggest try flashing Magisk V9 as it worked for me as well before.
not work with stock kernel. Any guide with stock kernel?
Hmmm... Twisted Kernel is only for G920F... what is F? Sorry for my ignorance. Tried googling it. Still unclear.
I have Sprint G920P. Anyone know if this would be devastating and irreversible to my phone if I tried it?
Every other method has failed for me and/or is incompatible with my Sprint phone. I'd love to try this and not brick my phone. Thanks!
F is the international variant of the s6, mainly European, might be wrong.
On my Note 4 I am currently running DevBase 3.8 rom, Enforcing RamKernel V5 R1 and Magisk 10.2.
When I enable "Magisk Hide" I don't have to fiddle with any file permissions at all, SafetyNet is passed "out of the box". :good:
Thanks you so much!
Works perfect on Nexus 6p and 5x running latest 7.1.1 stock with Elementalx kernel.
Just had some problems with changing permissions but it passes anyway. Danke!

[ROOT] [MOTO G5] How to root Moto G5 very easy on LineageOS

How to root Moto G5 very easy on LineageOS
Since iv been reading some very strange ways people have been rooting this device I will tell you how to root this phone very easily if you are on LineageOS
This is for LineageOS 14.1 only
For LineageOS 15 please use Magisk

TWRP Recovery
LineageOS rom or based on LineageOS rom
SU zip in attachment
How To
Once you have installed LineageOS (or any rom that is based on it)
Go into TWRP Recovery
Install Zip
Select addonsu-14.1-arm-signed.zip
Wait till flash has finished
Wipe Cache
Restart Phone
Once phone has restarted do the following
Open phone settings
Go to about phone
Keep pressing on build number until it tells you that you are a developer
Go back to phone settings
Select Developer Options
Under Root access select Apps and ADB
Done - you now have a rooted phone
Don't install any other superuser/supersu app as it may conflict
Is wipe cache really needed? I don't want to setup all my apps for the third time this week (root on stock, then installing LineageOS).

wiping cache does not delete any app data or removes any apps
Cache is a temp folder that apps use so things can load quicker - wiping the cache is always recommended after flashing any zip (the option wipe cache/dalvik will appear after flashing zip)
What you are talking about is data - wiping data would remove all user data/apps and at no point do you need to wipe data in this process

Probably who ever built the rom hasn't used lineageos sources for rooting/settings
You will have to take it up with them
ok - i get root with this no problem, but i need superSU (standard, not addonSU) for foldermount that doesn't like the addonSU.
what to do?

Supersu zip - Flash in twrp
https://s3-us-west-2.amazonaws.com/supersu/download/zip/SuperSU-v2.82-201705271822.zip
i had already in fact tried this very ZIP. now i tried it a 2nd time. flash completes, but with RAMdisk errors: Extracting RAMdisk -- failure, aborting.
and booting with it, the system boots, but i don't have root.
are you saying you've succeeded with this?

On previous versions of lineageos 14.1 yes (but not tried it for ages as didn't use it for my root so kernel may have changed)
If you are using lineageos 15 you need to use magisk
k. i don't really fancy going back in history on lineageos...
unfortunately i can only use superSU as that's what foldermount expects to see. and the developer for it is AWOL, so he won't be fixing this anytime soon.
or - do you know of any alternatives to foldermount?
or2 - perhaps the lineageos developer could make it compatible with superSU?

I would advise using lineageos 15 & then using magisk
The chances are there is a magisk module that will do the same/similar job
Linking things to sd card isn't really advised - it slows the device down & makes it laggy - the g5 has 16gb internal storage so what benefit are you looking for as just installing apps I can't see anyone filling up internal storage & anything else can go on sd card like music pictures downloads etc

is 15 better than 14.1? there does seem to be magisk module that attempts to do this, but seemingly not ready for prime time yet.

right, it's no longer about space. it's about: setting up a removable hard drive (=sdcard), and with it, being able to houseclean for misbehaving apps. in my case it's mostly wechat, that will fill any amount of space and not provide tools to keep it operational. and yes, i got a fast sdcard, speed shouldn't be an issue.

Well it's oreo as opposed to nougat
Only main bug is camera apps crash after taking 1 pic but I'm sure that will be fixed in next build
Since I don't use apps like that I can't recommend anything
Thank you for creating this. I tried to root Moto g5 lineage 14.1 using SuperSU. Unfortunately it doesn't work. I tried the latest beta 2.82, 1.97, etc.
Although magisk works, it wasn't as simple as SuperSU
So this app is great substitute. I hope you can make it work for lineage 15 also

at the end of the process,
what if i disable now dev options(toggle to deactivate) with the root access apps and adb allowed(as you described),
will i remain root?
anyway, how come i dont find any supersu app installed? did i do something wrong then? or is the addonsu-14.1-arm-signed integrated by flashing it in custom recovery?

Snapchat root check bypass?

I pretty much have given up trying to pass or spoof Safetynet but does Snapchat use Safetynet to detect root or is there still methods to get signed in to Snapchat on Oxygen 10.5.12?
Works without issues for me. Rooted with magisk, safetynet passes and Snap hidden in magiskhide.
To pass safetynet:
Install busybox (magisk module)
Install MagiskHide Props Config (magisk module)
Reboot
Install terminal emulator for android (app, Google play)
start Terminal emulator and type:
Su (Grant root when prompted)
Props
1
F
Choose your phone model and install fingerprint.
Reboot.
In magisk, enter MagiskHide and hide snapchat.
Done. If you still can't login, clear clear snapchat app data.
Bonus: to get play store certified (after passing safetynet) clear app data for google plat store and google play services.

If you're running edxposed thats your why, safetynet cannot pass with it. I know there is a module for xposed that fakes the SN result (mostry visually), but that's useless.
If I were you I would actually use a fastboot rom to reset the device and start from scratch. Or msmdtool if that doesn't work, but be prepared to use the fingerprint enrollment fix if you do use that method.
There's just too much apps dependant on Safetynet... Netflix L1, Google Pay, Snap, among others.

Just tried completely uninstalling exposed with no luck as well. Gotta keep trying to get safety check to work..
I just recall that a read somewhere that magiskhide could not hide the bootloader state anymore which may cause safetynet to fail.

That hw check (bootloader unlock check) isn't implemented by Google yet, so thats not the issue. It definetly will become an issue when it's implemented, but we're not there yet..
Another reason for fail could be the kernel, it you have some strange one flashed. If that's the case, try Omega Kernel., it always worked for me.

Oh, thats good! also, if you have started snapchat, clear appdata for it too. And then add it to magiskhide before you start it, and you should be good to go.
I forgot to answer your question about TWRP - I don't use it, dont see the point as system is read only anyway. some apps can also scan for a TWRP or TitaniumBackup folder and "fail" the check only because those exist.. so watch out for that one.

Whenever the bootloader check is implemented will you avoid failing the test by not updating the os or is it a hardware hotfix which you cant avoid?

I don't remember exactly how its implemented, but I think it's a check in play services that Google just need to flip on. We might be able to force basic check somehow, for a while, but it probably won't take long before the advanced check is mandatory to pass..

Dude you are actually a legend, I literally didn't think of this myself after thinking of a bunch of stuff e.g. xposed and magiskhide being disabled for snapchat was causing the problem but still getting the login problems.
With that said, it still won't pass SafetyNet no matter what I do (but this is on a custom ROM on a Moto G6) but Snapchat login now works!!
