S-Off WIth Mobile Iron and Stock Flash

Hi all
I have a small issue. I have a M8 which I love great device. I managed to gain full Sim Unlock via S-Off, Super Cid and a guide on here.
I flashed back to my Stock back up that does not have root and flashed stock recovery.
At work we Use a MDM call Mobile Iron to gain access to emails. Since doing all of this my device is never compliant due to the system thinking something is up with my device. Now since I think I am back at stock for my device it should be.
I am trying to find a Stock RUU to see if it helps. I have locked the boot loader again and removed the Tampered flag. But still the same issue. Any ideas ?

Hi, did you manage to get around this? I am in a similar situation, but the HTC has yet to arrive..

Just don't root it. I found that Super SU apk was in a app folder .I deleted this and was all good

Did you try formatting the phone and setting it up again? That usually solves issues with major Android releases.

Yes, factory reset. Still no changes. The phone is slower than ever and the battery life is horrible.
I just want to downgrade it back to Lollipop.

Hey, thanks for replying. I'm a total noob at this. I don't know what these terms mean s-off or flashing. I did tried to google them but to no avail.
Can you guide me a little as how do I turn s-off?
My device is the middle eastern version.
I'll follow rest of the guide.
Is it safe though? Any risk of bricking?

htc desire eye returned back to stock but now HOME BUTTON is missing + Unable to install any apps. Plz help

I still have a lagging problem and unusable camera after numerous factory resets, cache clearing and removing disabling apps. Is there a definitive solution out there? I'm willing to downgrade to lollipop if it means my phone is restored to working properly. My phone is not rooted and I'm a complete newbie as to attempting to do that. Any tips/suggestions would be greatly received as I'm at my wits end. Thanks in advance

Dude go to play store find the app called "HTC Speak" uninstall it from. There and see if it fixes. If not then u r probably suffering from mobile data active error fix It Install exposed module Mobile active fix

Thanks for tip. I tried uninstalling "HTC speak" but still getting problem. Where can I install Mobile active fix?
Thanks again.

Install Xposed installer and install the framework. You can find guides about it all over the desire eye forum. Then open the installed app i.e Xposed Installer. Go to downloads and search MobileRadioActiveFix. Download and install it. Then go back to main menu. Go to framework and reboot device from the framework.

then rearrange the sequence for the shortcut (say Back-Home-Recent apps or Recent apps-Home-Back)
As for Unable to install apps, try this:

Device is not certified Error

from miui global stable 10.0.6.0 I downgraded to 9.6.4 global stable by fastboot method and unlocking the bootloader but its showing device is not certified on play store hence I cant install netflix and use other banking related apps
PS: I'm not rooted and on stock recovery too just bootloader is unlocked
is there any way I could fix that without relocking the bootloader again? I dont wanna root

Try using Mi Flash Tool and selecting "Clean All" but not "Clean All and Lock"

That's what I select ofc while flashing 9.6.4

It is expected since bootloader is unlocked..

i am on a custom rom, rooted, but safetynet passed
just magisk it, place safety net in play , HIDE magisk from Playstore and try!
also! if playstore is not allowing! just download the netflix app from
1. apk mirror
2. apk pure
3. uptodown etc
why going thru so much of reflashing / wiping / rooting not rooting hassle?

Its doesnt matter. You have unlocked bootloader and it is a reason. To pass safetynet device need fulfill some criteria like no root, no unlocked bootloader, stable rom etc.

Here is the solution:
Install this app https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=673956719939830832
You'll find a Google Services Framework Id , copy it and go on this website https://www.google.com/android/uncertified/
Paste your GSF id and click register. Your device will get registered with Google. This might take some time to reflect in your PlayStore
Hit thanks if this works

No, you won't be notified just check your Playstore after a while and it would show "Device is certified". Mine was also not certified and got it certified by this.

Relocking bootloader

To use Google Pay, you need to pass Safety net.
It is not related to bootloader.
And relocking bootloader without losing any data is possible if and only if you did not flash any custom mods like recovery , kernel ..As it validates md5 checksum

You don't need to re-lock the bootloader to use Google Pay. Install TWRP as your recovery and then install Magisk!

You will need to relock the bootloader then, you may lose data. Just back up everything first like pictures and videos. All your apps will re-download when you sign back into Google

Not able to add a visa card to Google Pay when unlocked

Hi there,
I'm in contact with google support to add a visa card to Google Pay. After several issues finally sorted, I have now a message saying I can not add a card because my phone is altered.
Is the fact that my phone is unlocked won't allow me to use Google Pay / NFC feature?
Thx guys

I managed to make work my banking app and Google Pay with these steps:
1. Enable Magisk hide + enable hide for Google Pay and Google Play services
2. Repackage Magisk Manager app (you will need to enable installation of apps from USB source in system developer settings)
3. Force basic Safetynet test by installing MagiskHide Props Config and selecting Mi 10T pro as a phone model (as a bonus, AR will work too)
Reboot phone and it should work now.

Hummm... after some research, it looks like this method won't work for a long time. Can I unlock my device for the time being? It's unclear how I can do it...

Maybe it will, maybe it won't.. There is a secondary method involving modification of Google Pay sql database which might work for a longer time.
Anyway, to unroot your phone and to pass safetynet you'll need to reflash whole ROM and lock the bootloader (make sure that phone is working before locking).

My Google Pay NFC visa was working after passing safetynet on magisk but stopped working today. Tried to unroot but still got the same error.
I didn't update the app at all so I'm guessing on the server side they did some changes to detect for root / custom rom /unlocked bootloader or something.
Now I'm gonna re-root since removing it didn't helped. Lol

Is a factory reset will do?

Safetynet will fail with unlocked bootloader, you need either unlocked bootloader + Magisk hide + basic Safetynet test (can be forced with using for example Mi 10T pro as a phone model), or completely stock rom with locked bootloader. Mine Google pay seems to be still working (at least app doesn't complain about anything ).

All versions are 5G - check which MIUI version exactly do you have now (settings->about) and then download a ROM for the same region.

Long story short. After bricking my device (XiaoMiTool V2 hit it hard), I managed to get it back and flash a Fastboot ROM (through XiaoMiFlash).
And Google Pay still say I can not add a Visa Card because my Device is rooted or is altered in a way. I downloaded a root checker and it says I'm not rooted... WTF???

"Clean all and lock"

Yes, flash all and lock is the right script. But it's a good point to lock your bootloader only after you are sure that your phone works.
When you are sure that you are with a fresh stock ROM, reboot to fastboot mode and issue command:
" fastboot flashing lock"
Beware, it will erase your data and if you by any chance have modified boot or system partition, you will brick your phone and it must be revived by EDL mode.

I tried the command but the device says it was not a "known command" so I flashed it again with the right script (I had to remove the antirollback section tho)
I'm restoring at the moment. Will tell you if I can add my VISA soon

So it works but Google Pay is saying that my Bank does not support this feature (Welcome to Canada!)
All of this for... NOTHING °*&(?$?&)
Ah ah ah... At least, I know how to properly flash my device. Thx a lot _mysiak_
