How to Get google Call Screening - OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers

Anyone been able to get it on the OP 8 Plus? I have this guide, https://oneplus.gadgethacks.com/how-to/get-googles-call-screen-feature-your-oneplus-0210322/, but haven't been able to get i to work.

Have you tried that Magisk module that gives you all the pixel features? I thought I read that the call screening could be had.
I just unlocked bootloader and rooted yesterday but haven't tried anything yet.

Yep, in addition to the guide I posted, I also tried Pix3lfy. No luck.

I was able to get call screening working but you have to use an older version of Google dialer and will not work on newer versions.
Install Google dialer framework, BusyBox and systemizer in magisk.
Reboot.
Download version 38 to 40 of Google phone app and install.
Install terminal emulator and systemize Google phone.
Reboot.
Set Google phone as default and disable OnePlus dialer.
Install preference manager and open, go to phone and search for speak. Change all instances of speak from false to true.
Call screening should show up in settings.

Fire HD 6 Root success with KingRoot APK

Hi!
Today, while doing my daily reading blogs, I found an article by El Android Libre (in spanish) of an app for rooting Android devices quickly, so I decided to try it on my own and effectively, the application success to root my Fire HD 6!. His name is KingRoot. I'm very excited, it worked, and so far I have not noticed errors in the operation of my tablet (at least, today). I could say that this is the ultimate solution to root the Fire HD 6.
WARNING: This is a Chinese application, so I can not guarantee that it 100% safe to use . IF YOU INSTALL THIS, IT IS AT YOUR OWN RISK. I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR BUGS, BOOTLOOPS OR SOFTBRICKS..
Antivirus information:
If the antivirus software on your tablet shows this application as a virus, it is evident: for root you device, this app made a series of exploits to the operating system, and obviously the antivirus will display warnings before or during the process
I hope this can be useful to someone.
(Sorry for my English, I am using Google translator)
UPDATE 12-05-2015 02:01 AM
This process is not yet totally safe and we have very little information. Indeed, it is possible to root the Fire HD 6/7, but there's a very high risk of the device is unable to boot.
Unroot instructions:
Open the KingUser app
Press the Settings button (upper right corner)
Then press the "Remove Permission Root" option
Confirm and wait a few minutes.
Reboot
Yay!!! Thank you for posting this, I will try it now
great news! plz report how it goes thx.
Made a quick vid. Thanks for the info! How to Root Fire HD6: www.youtube.com/watch?v=KcQ30qcImJc
at last my hd6 is rooted now thx
Trying it on my HD7 now. Are we forced to use the king superuser or can we switch to superSu after?

The SU binary will be saved in the /system/bin folder after rooting the Fire HD 6, so I think that while this binary is not deleted you can use any other app for root management like SuperSu.
Suh-weeeet! Can confirm, works on HD7!
Confirmed, my HD6 (well, my mother's HD6) is now rooted :3
I seem to have lost root on reboot though
Or maybe it's because I un-installed the app?
Now to figure out how to get the Play Store working...

I restarted my Fire several times throughout the day and still root.
What is the app you've uninstalled?
Here is a screenshot of Root Checker on my tablet right now.
Yeah, it's because I uninstalled KingRoot. Need to get SuperSU in here... somehow

Well, I try sideload SuperSu directly on my Fire but when I open it, the app ask me to update the su binaries, and a few seconds later shows me an error...
Any suggestions?
Has anyone successfully installed the Google Play Store?
Unfortunately, no. Android root stuff isn't something I'm too familiar with. I think we've still got a long way to go...
So what does the development road look like from here? Do we need a custom recovery before any roms start coming?
Thanks for this, I am excited to get home and play with my tablet!

I'm wondering how similar this Kindle is to the previous version software wise. Maybe some of the older methods will work now we have root?
This is the situation right now:
It is now possible to root the Fire HD 6 (and 7, as I'm reading)
The root is persistent while you don't uninstall the KingRoot app.
For now, you can not install the SuperSU app (throws an error)
Installing System Tuner Pro gives you the ability to uninstall system applications, review the logs of the kernel, modify the file build.prop, among other things (Other apps can also be used for do this...).
It is not possible (for now) install Gapps until to find an advanced recovery that it works with this tablet. Despite this, you can install some Google apps like YouTube, Google, and Google Search taking an alternative way. Read this thread for more information:
(Yes, there is still road ahead ...)

If Phone is Rooted and At A Store You Want to Use Google Pay..

If you have rooted your N6P and you are at a store and want to use Google Pay, is there a way of quickly (on the fly as it were ) unrooting the phone,, making purchase and then rerooting?
Go into SuperSU. Uncheck Enable Superuser. Add your cards. Turn root back on and you're good to go. It appears the only caveat to root is that you're unable to add payment methods. You should be able to pay.

Have you actually tested this at a terminal? Everything I've read says root or custom roms will not work with Android Pay. You can unroot and add the cards, but it will still not function at a POS terminal. I am yet to find someone that can confirm it works the way you mentioned. Everyone agrees that you can add the cards... but that's where the functionality stops.
Tried this method on my Nexus 6. It knows I'm rooted, even if I've disabled SU entirely and rebooted.
Have a search about, at least one of two people have confirmed that they have paid with root disabled, but only if the system partition hasn't been changed
So how do you ensure the system partition is not changed?

Pardon my ignorance here... but doesn't rooting the device modify the system partition? If not... maybe that's the difference with the other threads I've seen. Everyone was using custom roms as far as I know. I'd like to be able to root so I can use adblocker and still use Android Pay. I can live without a custom rom on stock android... but I really miss adblocker.

There's a root without changing system. As I said, have a search about. I read it earlier today or perhaps yesterday. There's a thread about the root without system.
Thanks... found the link.
http://www.xda-developers.com/chainfire-releases-root-for-android-6-0-without-modifying-system/
cool, no worries.
So I can confirm that Android Pay will not let you add cards while rooted, but it will let you complete a payment at a terminal while root in SuperSU is enabled. So once you have your payments setup, you can root and use Android Pay.
I own a store with a terminal that accepts Android Pay and have tested it a few different ways over the past 2 days. Every way worked. Unrooted, root simply disabled, root enabled.
The only thing root does is makes it so you can't add a card.
And I have regular root, not the new systemless root.

Can you still pay after a reboot? Thanks.
It works. I wish the misinformation would simply stop. It has worked on devices in the past, it works on devices now and it will most likely work on devices in the future. We had threads before launch how root would disable bank apps, fingerprint sensor, android pay etc and it is all simply untrue.
It works.

Yes, but Google stated that Android Pay can't be used with root. So of course there will some question to it.
source
And root absolutely does effect Android Pay. However if seems only while adding payment methods, and nothing once they are added.
What Google is using to determine if the device has been tampered with: https://koz.io/inside-safetynet/
Its definitely an interesting and pretty secure setup. Since it seems to happen real-time, maybe they turned off the "su_files" check and thats why Android Pay works on rooted devices now.

So tried it again today after rebooting with root enabled and it does not work. So there you go. Android Pay does not work while rooted, period.
It does work with root simply disabled in the SuperSu app and then a reboot.
Maybe the new systemless root, though chainfire said if it does work, it was unintentional and Google will probably patch it.

This is correct. If you try to pay, after adding your cards and re rooting, it will fail.
You must disable root again to pay. You can reenable after.

Android Pay Cannot Be Used

first of all i'm sorry if this has been answered already, but i could not find the answer.
My 6P is setup as follows:
MDB08L build
rooted with systemless root and TWRP
xposed v78 sdk 23
xposed mods:
greenify
gravitybox
App Settings
No Lock Home
Snapprefs
Xinsta
Custom Share
i try to activate my AMEX on android pay and i get the error message stating that Google cannot verify the software (same message as if i was running a rom)
i have tried to unroot in SuperSU and then add the card...no difference
can anyone help me out here?
It won't work if you are rooted. Some people have said that temp unroot works, but I've never been able to get it.
Xposed modifies system, pay won't work

alright. i'm going to try to uninstall xposed. add the card and see what happens then i guess.

No AP with root, even systemless root. There might be a few that have said they have figured it out but in general 99.9% of people say it will not work.
I came from an Lg G3 with root and Xposed.
You cannot add cards if Xposed is installed. FIle systesm is checked.
You need to uninstall Xposed.
Once the cards are added re-install Xposed and root.
Use the module "No Device Check" to be able to use Android Pay.
I have Xposed and root and use Pay with no issues.

I too am having problems adding a card to Android Pay due to the "Google is unable to verify. . ." error. I'm on stock ROM, and followed the directions for system-less root (thanks for that thread!).
One thing I'm starting to suspect is that when I first booted TWRP, upon being asked to keep system read only, I chose to "swipe to allow modifications".
Does anyone think this action, of allowing TWRP to modify the system partition, is the root cause for Android Pay not working? Is there a way to undo this action in TWRP, to put the system partition back to read-only?
Thanks!

i'm assuming you're rooted with SuperSU 2.62?
you have to delete SU/Bin i think to get it to work
It is available on this device, but is geographically dependent. If you live in a location where Android Pay is available and are completely stock and unrooted it will work. You then go into the lottery once you start looking at root etc.

Google assistant

Has anyone received Google Assistant on their phones yet? Just curious.
Yep. You can force it with a build.prop edit. It worked for me, but I think there are mixed reports. Root required.

I'm surprised to hear some people still don't have GA natively. I'm a long time HTC user, but I just bought my 10 last Fri. it's pretty sweet. although, I must say, I still REALLY like my One M8.

I unlocked my bootloader Saturday but I'm reluctant to root because I don't want to lose Android Pay. If I can modify some the build.prop for Google Assistant and get wi-fi hotspot then reboot so I can use Android pay then I might.

I know, but I've rooted and messed with custom ROMs on every phone I've had and I'm kind of tired of messing with that stuff. Really I think the best thing I could do is buy a Pixel. I'm tired of the different phone manufacturers and their bloated ROMs and the constant problems that custom ROMs have. At least for right now. Thanks though. I'll keep it in mind if I ever feel like jacking with that stuff again.
"OK Google" Always on!!??
So has anyone else noticed this?
The attached screenshot shows the settings for the "ok google" always listening feature. I know this feature is useful to launch google from any screen or even when the screen is off but I do not want this on for privacy reasons. I was always able to disable it on Marshmallow but now with N even when i turn it off it turns back on.
How to try to reproduce:
Turn off the feature
Exit the settings menu
Go back to the Ok google settings and see if its enabled again.
Is this happening to anyone else!?

I'm confused . . . My bootloader is unlocked, has been since I got my 10 last summer, and I just used Android Pay this weekend, and Magisk Manager says I'm currently passing SafetyNet. Android Pay is checked in Magisk Hide.
Are you saying that unlocking the bootloader alone will cause SafetyNet to fail, but Magisk Hide will then allow it again?

yes, merely having the bootloader unlocked even w/ 100% stock ROM, safetynet will fail....the beauty of magisk is that it hides it
I think at this point I'd rather relock my bootloader and go back to using my Galaxy S4 while I try to sell my HTC 10 and then put that money towards a Pixel. Anybody wanna buy a phone? ?

Is magisk a ROM or more of a mod? And what is magisk su? I'm going to try and get my phone rooted this weekend but I can't find a tutorial thread, it seems to be scattered everywhere. It seems like I fastboot TWRP, flash SuperSU, flash magisk then install magisk manager from Google Play?

Has anyone been successful in editing their build.prop file to activate (or deactivate) Google Assistant? I actually want to deactivate Google Assistant but I can't seem save changes to my build.prop file.

Maybe a Q: Easy way to unroot/root?

Hey everyone!
In the 6 years or so that I have been rooting/unlocking the BL, this thought has never crossed my mind, until now. Unfortunately, there are some apps I need to use that wont work with rooted phones. I think this is incredibly [email protected]*king dumb, but there is nothing I can do about that.
SO the question I have is there a way to disable the root/unroot the phone/make apps think the phone is unrooted for just a few mintues so I can use the app, then quickly put the root back? Any thoughts, insights, advice, etc. would be helpful.
Thanks!
