Kind of a long story:
I have the TIM branded Zenfone 3 Deluxe 570KL and everything was ok (safetynet pass on both CTS and Basic integrity with Magisk root).
Then i updated Magisk to the 15.0 version and got my device encrypted randomly at the restart (and yes this is a problem with this version but hangon), after the upgrade to 15.0 and the device encrypted now the CTS verification fails so i tried to downgrade back to version 14 of magisk to no avail.
From there i downloaded the WW version of the firmware, formatted the phone (inc data), convert the zip to a flashable img file and flashed the stock WW with no root.
Device still encrypted despite the complete format and fails again the safetynet.
Tried to flash the TIM version downloadable from ASUS with the same result.
Somehow i flashed the stock WW and safetynet fails only on CTS but as soon as i install the version 15.1 of magisk and enabling Magisk hide on google apps i fail safetynet also on basic integrity.
Do you know any way to remove this dammned encryption since there is no option to disable it in the security settings and flash a fresh stock firmware that passes safetynet?
Maybe with a twrp backup of a stock firware i can do something?

I am having the same problem with Magisk v15.1. What I did for a temporary solution is I flashed back to Magisk v14.0 and it now passes safety checks. I am using Android 7.0 and I have the 2.15 ghz version of the phone (Asus_Z016D) Hope this helps.

Thanks for the suggestion. Flash back the 14 is the first thing I tried but it failed and then I tried to reset and reflash the stock firmware but now, like I said, nothing that I tried works.
I know is asking a lot but can you make a TWRP backup of your phone except the data partition obviously? Maybe that encryption f** up something that I can't fix just by reset and flash the stock
I have the same problem. Safetynet fails... Are you sure that encryption is the cause?

I believe so, i got encrypted only when i installed the 15.0 but even if i format system and data and i flash a clean stock the options says that my phone is encrypted even if the phone has no password or i didnt activate it

Would be nice to pass also CTS like before but Im ok with just the integrity check.
And yeah i can confirm that it works now with 15.2.
That was driving me mad; interesting fact: Fire Emblem Heroes go into connection error loop if the integrity check fails or detect that the phone is rooted and that happens at random times. I hate this approach of Nintendo and such, if i want to have control of my phone you shouldnt penalize me for that.
Anyway if someone is brave enough to share a stock/rooted backup that pass the CTS i would gladly try it out.

I agree. Even Gangstar New Orleans isn't downloadable if you have root. It's root the cause! I tought it was the fact that it's available only for some devices for certain reasons. Now even gameloft seems to penalize root users...
Did you go on magisk hide section and selected the apps/games which you are interested in?

To download the apps/games, obviously, you have to use hide on google play then, when are installed, on the apps
Since i want to use Android Pay but got this issue, is there any stock rom which passes certification?
Could you please check:
Open the Google Play Store app Google Play.
Tap Menu Menu and then Settings.
Under “Device certification” you’ll see if your device is certified
Edit: After some research i can say it happens because of unlocked bootloader.
Any solution to pass cts verification?

sorry guys Magisk currently does not pass safetynet checks (24-06-2017) so this guide is a bit out of date but you can still use it, I will make another guide for this once magisk v13 comes out and fixes this problem
Hi guys! just a quick guide on how to install magisk, re-enable use of Samsung Health, and pass SafetyNet and be play store certified.
This guide will be pretty brief as i don't have the time or commitment to do an in-depth guide and I believe if you are here that you should know what you are doing (if anyone wants to make this in-depth, please be my guest).
this guide is for people who have tripped knox and still want to use s health while still getting the most out of their phone
You will need:
Odin:
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=529152257862705230
TWRP for your device (you should be able to find guides with the download link)(you should also flash back to complete stock if you are already rooted to avoid any problems with previous roots)
no-verity-no-encrypt_ashyx.zip:
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24591000424951049
Magisk v12.0:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/magisk/official-magisk-v7-universal-systemless-t3473445
Now that you have those 4 files we can start.
Skip steps 1-6 if you already have root and only wish to use samsung health
1. put magisk v12.0 and dm-verity patch onto the sdcard in the phone
2. flash TWRP using odin
3. boot into recovery and swipe to allow modifications.
4. under wipe there should be a button to format data (its in the bottom right). you will need to do this to flash magisk and dm verity.
5. flash Magisk and THEN dm verity
6a. boot into phone and complete setup to get to home page.
6b. download any systemless root app that you want (adaway works you just have to turn on systemless host files in magisk settings + viper4andriod has a module in magisk that you download for it to work)
(DO NOT TURN ON HIDE MAGISK UNTIL THE END)
7. download the app buildprop editor, open it and grant it root. search for the line ro.config.tima=1 and change the value from 1 to 0.
8. reboot the phone and you should now be able to use s health.
continue following if you wish to pass safetynet and be playstore certified (set up your root apps like viper and adaway before doing this)
9. go into magisk settings and enable the setting Magisk Hide. reboot phone. check that you pass safetynet in magisk manager after booting up again
10. go into app manager, find google play store, tap storage and then clear the data.
11. open app again and you should be certified. (this took me a few tries. not sure if it was play store needing to update the property or me needing to reboot the phone)
12. Yay! your device should now be able to pass safetynet and will be play store certified in the play store app. you should soon be able to see netflix in the play store again.
source: I done this on my a520 just on the weekend to be able to update netflix
I'll try this next update, thnx!

According to the XDA page of Magisk it already supports dm-verity and forceencrypt. So is the separate download of no-verity-no-encrypt_ashyx.zip still necessary?
Edit: What does the change " ro.config.tima=0" do?

oh i did not know that it supported it already so maybe its not? not sure, try it out and see what happens?
the config change make it so that the rom thinks you still have knox enabled to you are able to use samsung health still (it got a "security update" that makes it so that phones with knox tripped will not be able to use it)
Good to know ! Thank so much !
But what's the real possibilities of this recent "magisk" ?
It can root with systemless ?
And in theory with systemless-root ,that don't trip the knox and we can use all apps and full hardware ....because it consider that the system is safe and untouched ===> i'm truth or wrong ?

According to some other threads (and if I remember correctly from my own experience with the S7) Knox gets triggered as soon as you flash a custom recovery.
A positive effect of Magisk vs. SuperSU could be that system updates are still possible as the system partition is still unchanged. On the other hand the custom recovery will most probably cause the update to fail.
What seems to make Magisk superior to SuperSU is MagiskHide so that the system appears to be unchanged for PlayStore and apps using SafetyNet.

Thank so much for sharing Samsung experience
Before i have had olds goods samsung fully customised ! It was funny before ,at this time ....and then always have had LG phones and just an unlock of bootloader+Systemless root din't have problem at all (full playstore&experience)
Now with the samsung evolution and my new A5 ,i don't want at all loose OTA updates,knox flag.... and all functions+playstore as you have said . And magisk is recent...
I want to be sure at 100....0000% that "magisk" systemless root doesn't affect anything .
i'm not interested at all by TWRP ...completely useless until there eventually have "real" customs developments and many things can be flashed by flashfire,flashify....

I doubt that FlashFire or Flashify can flash anything without root. The website of FlashFire for example says "FlashFire is the most advanced on-device firmware flasher available for rooted Android devices.". And the same for Flashify: [APP][4.0+][ROOT] Flashify.

1.You Need Magisk Manager (Removed Form PlayStore) So this is the Download Link https://mega.nz/#!olRzFRTZ!eNOb6yVtvsAlb3V8sIOaRRfsHtQG952_WU--3TCDvck
2.To Use S Health On Rooted Phone You Need To Edit /System/Build.prop
and Change ro.config.tima=1 to ro.config.tima=0 using (Es File Explorer or Root Browser)

Dis any one could enable the fm chip in nougat once rooted ,in Canada Samsung disable the fm chip and i would get it back
why does flashing magisk wipes all user data including internal storage?
Samsung A5 sm-a500f
I had to completely wipe my phone since recently the battery life started tanking hard, and I couldn't figure out why. I decided to just start over from a clean slate, since I had the same configuration since I got the phone about a year or two ago (stock Android 9, unlocked, and rooted with Magisk and EdXposed).
I figured that I would flash the July image without wipe first, but the battery issue persisted. I then decided to just flash it with the wipe (after backing up data, of course), and the battery seemed to be a bit better while I was setting up.
The problem I'm now having is that my device seems to be missing Play Certification. I noticed this when I was unable to install Netflix from the Play Store (although Google Pay seemed to work fine?). I've tried flashing the image several times, and even tried older images, but I can't seem to keep Play Certification.
I tried locking the bootloader after flashing the July image, and that finally gave me Play Certification and I was able to download Netflix.
Obviously however, I need to keep an unlocked bootloader for other things too.
Is there any way to get Netflix (and Play Certification) to work with an unlocked bootloader?
Doesn't MagiskHide provide just what you're asking for? If you don't want to use Magisk, maybe try PeNoire's SafetyNet Spoofer which works without Magisk but still requires a custom recovery like TWRP.

How would I get MagiskHide to work with Netflix without being able to install the app from the Play Store? Would enabling hide for the PS work, or do I need to sideload the app and then use Hide on the app?

Netflix doesn't care about the existence of Magisk once it is already installed on your device. So don't get confused there. You're problem is with the Play Store, specifically with SafetyNet. One step at a time;
When you unlock your bootloader, you are going to fail some SafetyNet checks. This will result in a restricted Play Store, meaning, certain apps won't be visible to you. To circumvent that, you flash something like Magisk or PetNoire to hide your bootloaders state to SafetyNet checks. This will result in an unrestricted Play Store. Unlock, install Magisk or PetNoire and then you should be able to get unrestricted access to Play Store apps.
Unlock the bootloader of your device
Install the latest version of Magisk
MagiskHide should be enabled by default, if not:
Download and install PetNoir's SafetyNet Spoofer

I've tried this, but something seems to not be working, or I'm doing something wrong.
I have Magisk 19.3 installed, and I can see that MagiskHide was automatically enabled for ”com.google.android.gms.unstable" under Google Play services, but Play Store Certification still shows that my device isn't certified, and Netflix won't appear.
The SafetyNet check in MagiskManager passes, however, so I'm wondering if there's something else going on. I'm going to try the other suggested SafetyNet bypass.
EDIT: Installed the other Spoofer, and the Certification listing in the Play Store disappeared, but Netflix is still nowhere to be seen. I tried uninstalling all updates for the Store and clearing storage and cache, but still nothing.
Wondering if I should just sideload Netflix and see if it works fine.
EDIT2: After a few moments, the Play Store now says that my device is certified, but I'm still unable to find Netflix in the Store for some reason. Tried rebooting and clearing cache but still nothing.

I'v been been having the same issue for about 5-6 months now with both Android 9 and 10. It was working fine on Pie and showing up in Google Play, but then after I flashed one of the monthly system images with a wipe, the app no longer showed up in the play store. And after I restored the most recent Netflix app at the time from a backup, it would constantly crash. I have all Google Play Services, Google Play and Netflix selected in Magisk hide. Google Play says my device is certified. Magisk SafetyNet test passes along with any SafetyNet test app. Logged out of my Google account, wiped data for Google Play, Google Play services and Netflix, rebooted and signed back in but still not showing up. Downloaded and installed the newest Netflix app from their site but I get an error stating the device is not supported with the app which clearly isn't the case.
Can you select this link and have it open in the Google Play app on your phone: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.netflix.mediaclient&hl=en_US
It shows up for me but says in red font: "This app isn't compatible with your device anymore. Contact the developers for more info". Which I did...went back and forth with Google and Netflix for hours yesterday, but both of their support is completely useless.
The newest version of the app that works for me is version 6.26.1. You can download it here if you haven't already: https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/netflix-inc/netflix/netflix-6-26-1-build-15-31696-release/
The only thing is how long is it going to continue to work. A future update will most likely break that version as well.
Have you made any progress since July?

That's actually the exact same version of Netflix that I was able to get working, and I've been using it since July.
It works exactly as it should, but the resolution seems to be capped at 480p or 720p, as I notice a lot of blurriness. It's still usable, but I'm considering getting rid of Magisk and going to 10 to avoid these issues.
Reading on what you've done, it's exactly what I went through in July.
I'm not sure what's changed since prior to updating to another security patch, Netflix was working completely fine from the Play Store with Magisk.

Yeah and also after a few minutes of watching a video, the screen dims like right before your phone auto-locks itself due to inactivity. So far the only way I was able to get it to show back up in Google Play was re-locking the bootloader, but that's not really an option for me since I want to stay rooted. But it really doesn't make any sense since all the SafetyNet compatibility tests pass and the device is certified. Maybe I'll try reaching out to the Magisk dev and see if he's willing to take a look into it.

I don't seem to have that screen dimming issue, so it's possible that something else is going on on your end for that.
It's possible that Netflix is able to detect root through some other way that's irrelevant to Google Play Protection. And it could also be a thing where the resolution is limited if you're not on the latest version.
If I do figure something out in the future, I'll be sure to post here again.

I don't think the issue is because of being rooted, but instead the unlocked bootloader as it still doesn't show up after uninstalling Magisk or after a system image flash with wipe. Like I mentioned earlier, the only way I can get it to show in Google Play or have the newest version work when side loaded at this point is when the bootloader is locked. So if you don't mind not being rooted or being able to manually flash updates without a factory reset each time, just re-lock your bootloader (just remember to backup your data since it wipes your phone) and Netflix should work normally again.
But I'll be sure post here as well if I come across anything that works.
What you both need is to install/flash a custom kernel...
On top of many multiple things a custom kernel can do, one significant thing is to be able to mask root on many/most root detecting processes. When I first rooted 2 years ago, I couldn't get Google Pay to work because of the root detecting. I had inadvertently flashed a custom kernel, and was pleasantly surprised that Google Pay began to work (back then, but now more than a custom kernel is required).
The best general all-around custom kernel was called Flash, but that became EOL and stopped development, but one called Caesium was built based off of Flash and continued from there; even collaborated with the maker of Flash.
Give it a try, and see how it works wonders for both your issue (root detection) battery life, and even responsiveness of the system!
Hope this helps...

Thank you for the suggestion, I'll make sure to try this after updating to the latest Pie build. I'm sure that this will work, as I remember using a custom kernel last time that Netflix was working just fine for me.
I also just found a thread with a stock kernel infused with a SafetyNet patch that says that Netflix and other apps refused to work on unlocked bootloader devices because something trips in SafetyNet, leading me to believe that this is what me and @giants8058 have been experiencing.
I will let everyone know if this works later this week.

You have to flash a custom Kernel to hide bootloader unlock. After you flash the custom kernel the play store will still show as not being certified. You will have to force stop the play store then delete the cache and storage. When you reboot it will show that it is certified.

I flash the August stock build along with the Sultan kernel (as I couldn't get Caesium or the SafetyNet patched kernel to flash), and followed your instructions, but my Play Store isn't showing my device as certified yet.
Is there something else I need to do?

1. Download TWRP 3.3.0 img file
2. Download TWRP 3.3.0 zip file (optional)
3. Download Magisk 19.3
4. Download kernel of choice. (I use Sultan)
5. Boot to fastboot
6. Boot to TWRP. (fastboot boot TWRP. Img) I shorten the file name to make it easier.
7. Flash kernel first if using Sultan
8. Flash TWRP zip. (optional)
9. Flash Magisk 19.3
10. Let phone boot then delete data/cache in play store.
11. Reboot phone
These are the steps I use. If I remember correctly there was a couple of versions of the play store that showed uncertified no matter what. The latest play store version is 16.5.15. I can confirm it works. I also hide Google Play services in Magisk hide but I don't think that's needed unless you want Google Pay to work.

Those steps are actually exactly what I did, but the certification label in the settings is missing, and Netflix won't appear.
If it means anything, I noticed that I actually had Sultan kernel installed before doing any of this, so it might be that the kernel isn't working on my end.

Well...I can say, at least, that I am having the same experience as murphyjasonc and am able to get "Play Protect Certification" certified and I have an unlocked bootloader with root and even a custom recovery.
I would make sure you do as he suggests and at the very least disable or "uninstall updates" for the Play Store and Google Play Services. But, also, custom kernels are things that also need to be updated; so this might be the explanation on it no longer working. But I know you had recently reflashed Sultan, so it is rather puzzling that you are still having those issues.
Just making sure, you are using TWRP to install the latest version of those kernels, correct? Also, when you had ran the August patch, did you use the Full Factory version? Are you able to pass safetynet currently?
Hopefully retrying these will get things up and running...

I used the latest version of TWRP to install the August OTA patch, as well as to install the latest Sultan kernel.
I just ran a SafetyNet test in MagiskManager and it passed correctly.

Give this a try...
instead of the OTA, try the Full Factory version -- and be sure to remove the "-w" in the flash-all to keep your data intact -- and then, also, be sure to disable/"uninstall updates" for both the Google Play Store and the Google Play Services (you can enable it after disabling it of course). After that, boot up TWRP and flash the Sultan kernel and Magisk and see if you don't have the certification after all that.
If you don't know; you can't simply run the Full Factory .zip's in TWRP, so if you don't know how to do a Full Factory version, I can point you in the right direction...
Good luck!
Hi all,
Got a new phone and finally decided to see if I could root the old Pixel 2 XL. It's unlocked, bought directly from Google. Never before unlocked bootloader until now.
It was flashed to factory Android 11 2020-12, and rooted from there. Magisk 21.1 beta was installed from zip while booted into TWRP 3.0.4, as advised in this thread. The latest Play System Update (Oct 5, 2020) was automatically installed while I was messing around afterwords.
I confirmed root access thru a checker and Termux, which is pretty neat! Hadn't rooted a device in a long time!
Unfortunately, device certification fails in Play Store, Magisk SafetyNet check and being unable to add a credit card to Google Pay. Magisk says basicIntegrity passes, but CTSprofile fails.
Things I've tried, mostly from this exhaustive guide:
Hidden Magisk Manager
Enabled MagiskHide, rebooted
Remove Magisk zip from storage
Lock bootloader again, rebooted
Clear app storage for Play store and Play services, rebooted
Disable USB debugging
Disable Play Protect scanning
Looked over XDA boards, Magisk changelog/documentation/guides
Things I haven't done (yet?):
Spoofing device fingerprint. I wouldn't expect this to be necessary, since it's actually authentic! But maybe there's more to it that I don't understand?
Start over from scratch, with Magisk Canary build - doesn't appear to be any improvements to MagiskHide according in current release notes
Is this possible to achieve?

Google I believe is using hardware-backed CTS profiling, which Magisk cannot circumvent. Your only chance of passing CTS is to hope Google ISN'T using the hardware-backed version, so you can employ one of the workarounds I gave in the link above.
There is a setting in magisk manager that let's you switch the attestation check. I'm having a brain fart as to where it is atm but I'll poke around and if/when I find it, I'll reply again.

Apparently we're both having brain farts. I didn't even think there was such a setting. Then again, I don't use Google Pay.
Since updating to C.48 (2125 [phone], coming from C.47, my Google Play and Pay have stopped working on my rooted phone (Magisk 24.3), even though it passes SafetyNet with YASNAC. When I try to open Play I get a "Try Again" screen. When I try to open Pay, I get "Google Pay is updating right now...". I've got Universal SafetyNet Fix 2.2.1 and MagiskHide Props Config installed, and Play and Pay in the Deny List. Tried using Shamiko 0.4.4 (while disabling deny) with no better results. Cleared cache and data on both apps multiple times. Uninstalled Magisk and unrooted, and everything worked again. Re-rooted w/o opening either app, put them both into "deny" and, for a brief time, both worked -- but eventually (without my doing anything that I could tell), they both reverted to the behavior described above.
I'm wondering if this behavior has anything to do with the April security update included in C.48? Because it's really odd that I YASNAC still shows safetynet as having passed. More likely, it's user error on my part, but has anyone else run into this yet on C.48?
I have a LE2127 running your firmware and I don't notice issues. One thing you could try is just flashing the update zip over your current OS using the OPlocalupdate apk here https://oxygenos.oneplus.net/OPLocalUpdate_For_Android12.apk
Thanks. I presume you're rooted? Which version of Magisk are you using and are you using Deny List or Shamiko?

Yes, I'm rooted. I'm using Denylist on Magisk 24.3.
No problems on my end with Gpay while rooted
I gave up and did a total restore with MSM and then made sure to root and fill up the Deny List (and add SafetyNet Fix) before opening up Google Pay or Play. That seemed to work. Not sure how I messed it up in the first place, but I think it was in upgrading from C47 to C48 and my sequencing of unrooting, upgrading, clearing storage in the apps and re-rooting. Thanks all.

The update is available through Oxygen Updater app
First thoughts on OOS 13 are really positive, smoothness is the first thing I noticed, it's day and night with OOS 12
The UI revamp is very satisfying to me
Overall, it feels more polished than OOS 12, with the sense of details in every feature/setting, and some new unique features
Thanks. Looks like I'm getting IN2025, so will have to do the patched boot.img myself.
Time to find my old notes somewhere
Is your Fingerprint Sensor working with A13? Mine not.
I assume same issues as we had with A12 and USNF

Edit. Gpay works
Hey guys, what version of Magisk (and branch) are you using to root OOS13?
I am still on 11.0.11.11 with Magisk 23.
What is the procedure to upgrade to OOS13 from OOS11 without losing root, Magisk modules and all my data?
I tried downloading full OOS12 using Oxygen Updater app, ran Local System Upgrade, it finished normally, then installed Magisk to inactive slot (after OTA) and rebooted BUT after reboot - the system stays 11.0.11.11. And the attempt to Local System Upgdate for OOS13 fails right on start.
What am I missing?
Please help

In magisk go to settings then make sure zygisk is checked and activate denylist. In the denylist check google services is check.
Then install the module universital safetynetfix v 2.3.1 by kdrag0n
To me netflix and other apps work.
In the google play store you have many apps that can check if your safetynet is verified after it. If its verified it should work
To me vanced manager do not work when i try to install youtube vanced. It says that i tried to downgrade paquet but i did not. I uninstalled every youtube upgrade. If somebody know

Flash Universal SafetyNet module in magisk (kdrag0n) and Magisk Bootloop Protector (just in case)
Check your status after a reboot with YASNAC from Play Store
Force the Magisk DenyList, and when configuring it, develop the apps and check all the tick boxes manually (to be sure)
Uninstall Netflix and install the latest .apk from APKMirror, can't help as other app (banking too) works fine
Isn't vanced dead ?
YouTube Premium Argentina is very affordable fyi ....
