Help with Root and safety net

Hi guys,
Hoping my noob self can get some guidance here.
Basically i followed this guide: https://forum.xda-developers.com/pixel-xl/how-to/guide-stock-7-1-2-root-safetynet-ok-t3617347
But after doing so it seems that Magisk isnt working.
Is there anything i can do; installing a CROM, any work arrounds?
I've tried this as well but no avail: https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/magisk/safetynet-fix-pass-safetynet-2017-07-17-t3637801

Google has just updated the play store, there is a topic on here with the commands you need to execute via adb or command prompt in order to get magisk working properly, but seems you already did that, what version of magisk and magisk manager are you using

I've tried it multiple times, even rebooting in between

The Pixel doesn't use the official version of Magisk so any instructions for how to get the official version working might not apply on the Pixel. For a while if you enabled core only mode in the unofficial version the Pixel would still pass Safety Net even though the official version had stopped working. I have no idea if this workaround still works or not since I went back to stock but if you haven't tried it yet its certainly worth a try. Since the official link for the unofficial Pixel version of Magisk is hosted in the Resurrection Remix rom thread and discussion of Magisk issues frequently goes on there as well you might want to check the later posts in the rom thread and see if there is updated info regarding unofficial Magisk.

Ressurection Remix is a custom rom? Do you know if it works with Pixel? Because i'm fine with installing custom rom its not a must for me to have stock

Resurrection Remix is a custom rom but there is no need to install it to use Unofficial Magisk. That's just where the official download link is hosted, probably because the dev has some link to that particular rom. But Unofficial Magisk is not included or integrated in any way into that rom--Magisk is downloaded and flashed separately from the rom and should work the same on that rom, a different custom rom or stock.

As a side note there's nothing wrong with Resurrection Remix but if you did want to give a custom Rom a try I would personally recommend Dirty Unicorns or Screwed. They aren't hosted on XDA but don't let that bother you. A quick Google search will turn up where they are officially hosted and in my personal experience they are easily the best custom Roms available for the Pixel. That said, I went back to stock so I could try Android O and have stayed on stock so far.

That's true but it's probably temporary. The devs have been notified of that bug and they are usually pretty responsive. I could actually see Google changing their code to deny the unlimited original photo backup to Pixels that are altered--i.e. unlocked bootloader, root, custom recovery or custom rom since Google has made it pretty clear they don't want people doing these things on the Pixel, but I haven't read anything that indicates Google has done this. But don't be surprised if they do it in the future.

I feel like the roms where it is working is just a matter of something NOT being changed in them and needing to find the delta but I agree I wouldn't be surprised if they look the stance of purposefully not allowing modded devices.

I'm not a programmer and can't say for sure but you might be right. I think the devs at Screwed (if I remember correctly) are the ones who say they create as lean of a rom as possible by removing useless code. They might have removed something they shouldn't have. It's still an excellent rom but that is a serious bug for people who rely on the photo at full quality backup feature and take a lot of pics.

xposed now working on tab s3

A modified xposed installer and framework for nougat is now available thanks to the Purify os team and rovo
https://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/xposed-android-nougat-sdk-25-arm64-t3639221
Follow the link above.
1. Make backups, twrp/titanium
2. Install the modified xposed installer first, must be done first!
https://forum.xda-developers.com/devdb/project/?id=13191#downloads
Use the top one on the list it may get updated
3. Next download the modified xposed framework from Purify here
http://fastkit.org/xposed/
Follow the links.... SDK24 for nougat 7.0..... Then download the xposed version 87 model... Flash from twrp
Again make sure you fully back up, it all went fine for me, but sometimes these things don't go right.
Plenty of posts in the linked forum but a bit of a jumble as usual, all with varied results, but the above will work for us.
Not sure how many modules are usable yet, I have one working so I know it does work.

Which are you using, and what would you like to use?

Status bar sleep.. Working
Status bar download progress.... Working (mostly)
Status bar cpu temp.. Not working
Status bar cpu frequency.. Not working
Any of the status bar theming such as wanams xtouchwiz would be good
Also xinternalsd was useful but not working

Can you change aspect ratio yet?

Not something I would normally do, is there a particular module you use for that?

It's been such a long time since I came across this, being able to adjust screen ratio and dpi on a per app basis. No real reason to now but with the 4:3 ratio on this tab, it'll be nice.
Also, been a while since I've used xbosed

I have been using it without problem for a while, but the versions used are crucial to success, I couldn't get the magisk systemless to work. Try going back to the beginning and make sure each download is correct, the method in the first post will work.

Get it work with super su but installed OBBonSD does not work (with GTA, KotoR,...). Do you have any idea?
EDIT: Found a solution with http://repo.xposed.info/module/com.pyler.xinternalsd

I have followed the directions exactly and I tried twice to install xposed on my t825 rooted with magisk 14. No luck unfortunately. Has anybody been successful in installing it ??
If yes, could he share the methodology ?

had the same problem.. remove magisk and install superSU.. xposed do not work with magisk -.-' on this tablet..

Question, how do I remove xposed again?
Can I do it with the installer app, or do I need a special skript? Never used Xposed on Samsung before and I know everything works differently.

Hello,
Your experience : Do you have a "" Tab S3 SM-T825, Nougat 7.0, Root SuperSU "" on which you have installed Xposed.
1- Does Xposed work normally with different modules?
(No Bootloop or tablet block?)
2 - Which version xposed * .zip ?
3 - Which Version XposedInstaller _ *. Apk ?
Thank you

Fairly old thread this, I have a T820, however I've made roms for both variants, the t825 thread is here,
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-tab-s3/development/rom-sm-t825-tweaked-t3769742
the earlier versions are nougat the latest 3.0 on are oreo both work fine, you'll find instructions in the thread, if changing to oreo you need to flash the oreo bootloader, through odin, if returning to nougat you need to flash the older nougat bootloader as they're not cross compatible.
Xposed works fine on both, xposed installer included after booting, start the xposed installer app and select install it picks the correct version.
Root is by magisk.

Hello Rorymc
Thanks for the answer and for the link SM-T825 TWEAKED, but I'm already Root with SuperSU + Dm-Verity with Rom ARA2 Nougat 7.0 and I just have to flash Xposed with TWRP.
So, I think I have to take Xposed.zip and Xposedinstaller APK from rovo89 in pure version without add and unmodified ?
I hope I'm not mistaken .....

Yes that's correct, just make sure you get the correct versions, if anything goes wrong just restore your backup.

[GUIDE] GSI ROMs installation tutorial. In pursuit of the best ROM that is not MIUI

Disclaimer: I am not a developer (I don't code), but I have been flashing ROMs for many devices over the years. This is more of a practical guide from an end-user perspective in pursuit of finding the best ROM for this magnificent hardware. This is more of a compilation of all the relevant information I found. I'm very open to suggestions/corrections that could improve this.
Disclaimer: Only tested with RR, PixelExperience, and ArrowOS GSI.
I haven't seen a proper guide to flash GSI ROMs for Mi Mix 3, thus I decided to share what I know that works. I put a brief explanation for each step below.
1. Unlock Bootloader - If you haven't done so yet, I recommend following the instructions in https://www.reddit.com/r/Xiaomi/wiki/bootloader
2. Install TWRP
a) I recommend to use the official TWRP from this link https://twrp.me/xiaomi/xiaomimix3.html or refer to the forum https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-mix-3/development/recovery-unofficial-twrp-recovery-t3901261.
b) To install TWRP, I recommend to follow the instructions from Xiaomi.eu. For those not familiar, the "twrp.img" in the code should be the full path of the file. Something like "D:\folder\twrp.img"
c) If you have an older version of TWRP, I suggest to update it to the official.
3. Install Xiaomi.eu - Start from this step in case of bootloops or issues (especially caused by Magisk modules by my experience)
a) This is what I do instead of the 'flash vendor.img from Chinese Dev' prerequisite mentioned in other threads. This is an easier step (just one flash in TWRP) and a better fallback (a working ROM) in case things go wrong. I have had no issues (fingerprint, calls, etc..) with this and I've done this thrice.
b) Download the latest MIUIv10.2 Stable for MIMix3 from the link https://xiaomi.eu/community/threads/miui-10-0-10-1-10-2-stable-release.47170/.
c) Wipe > Format Data (prevents problems, and removes encryption if you had it). Also do Factory Reset (idk, just to be sure).
d) Copy xiaomi.eu ROM to internal storage, then Install > Flash. No need to boot/restart, proceed to the next step.
4. Install GSI ROM - wth is GSI? https://github.com/phhusson/treble_experimentations/wiki/Frequently-asked-questions-(FAQ)
a) We can actually install any GSI in https://forum.xda-developers.com/project-treble/trebleenabled-device-development but there is an issue in installing Google Apps (Open GApps) as many people mentioned in https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-mix-3/development/9-0-resurrection-remix-v7-0-t3891975 and as confirmed by the official TWRP thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi...p-recovery-t3901261/post79035909#post79035909
b) Given the above, the only feasible options are GSI ROMs with built-in GApps and the only 2 I found are PixelExperience GSI and ArrowOS GSI. As GApps is integrated in the system.img, no need to flash Open GApps thus no issues. Having tried both, I personally recommend ArrowOS due to the performance and additional customization options.
c) Download the arm64 AB version (ArrowOS as an example) https://forum.xda-developers.com/pr...abled-device-development/gsi-arrowos-t3835111
d) Copy the resulting system.img to internal storage (extract if its a .zip), in TWRP click Install > Install Images > select system.img of ArrowOS > select System partition. You can now boot, or follow next step to root with Magisk.
5. Install Magisk
a) The Magisk version that passes SafetyNet is the builds from ianmacd https://github.com/ianmacd/MagiskBuilds look for v18.2 (newer versions might work but I haven't tried them yet). You can still use the official Magisk Manager and the ianmacd version will be recognized. Just change the update channel in Magisk to https://goo.gl/yZpnrf. Credits to this thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-mix-3/how-to/root-magisk-18-2-mix-3-t3905754
b) After flashing Magisk, boot, install Magisk Manager, then download and install the module "SafetyPatch". SafetyNet check will now be success.
c) Even though SafetyNet is passed, some banking apps still are not working. Hopefully someone can share a solution (probably MagiskHide Props Config, or canary builds?) to make banking apps work.
Final Thoughts
ArrowOS GSI seems to be stable enough and I'm using it as my daily driver now. I am so much happier compared to when using MIUI Global ROM. I really like the performance (very fluid), battery life (a lot better than MIUI Global), customizations (like traffic indicator, status bar stuff), unli Google Photos, and everything that makes AOSP/stock android awesome. No more bloatware, annoying non-dismissable notifications, and horrible auto brightness from MIUI.
The only real issue I encountered so far is the bluetooth audio/music issue, but this seems to be a common problem in GSI ROMs. Bluetooth calls work though. There is no app to handle the slider (but I don't care. lol). Lastly, the AI button becomes useless, but see below for the fix.
Optional stuff that makes things better:
1. Remapping AI button - When using GSI ROMs, AI button becomes useless. But to map it back to Google Assistant (or anything actually), follow the instructions from this thread (needs some knowledge about Tasker). https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=78523778&postcount=38 For the Tasker Task, I selected Input > Voice Command. This now assigns the button to open Google Assistant. Does not work well when screen is off though, but its just easy to unlock.
2. Google Camera - The main reason why I bought this phone. Google Camera brings out the best in the awesome camera - Use this version https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-mix-3/themes/gcam-6-manual-focus-long-exposure-t3885610
3. Stereo Speaker Mod - https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-mix-3/themes/magisk-stereo-speaker-mod-mix-3-t3900580 Makes the phone earpiece into a speaker, increasing overall volume. I personally use version 3 and I'm very happy.
4. Fluid NG - App in Google Play Store to have the same recents/home/back gestures from MIUI 10.

Not all GSI work ontop of Xiaomi Eu
Flashing magisk and safety net patch also doesn't guarantee safety net passing on a few of the GSI as well. CTS will fail for obvious reasons

Noted. Which GSI have you tried that do not work on top of Xiaomi.EU? I tried RR, PixelExperience, and ArrowOS and all work well. I can put this as a disclaimer.
Any solution for the Magisk safetynet, or is this really the best solution available so far?

Can't remember as it was a while ago, possibly OctoOS and descendant and 1 other, omni ROM maybe.
For the ones that come with SU you need to navigate to the xbin folder in the system and remove the SU file.
Then cause Xiaomi EU uses the wrong fingerprint props you need to use the magisk props config module and manually type in the mix 3 fingerprint (unless the module has been updated to include mix 3).
If you installed the Chinese dev vendor then the props will be there ready to be used so the magisk module can make them active without manually typing it. This will sort out both safety net fails.

If this was sometime ago, the features in China Dev would have already been integrated in the latest China Stable, which is the basis of Xiaomi.EU.
Maybe you can test it now to see if Xiaomi.EU really works. I tried it with RR, PixelExperience, and ArrowOS and I'm facing no issues. So flashing China Dev vendor.img seems to be an outdated instruction.

The 3 GSI you mention is a very small sample of the GSI available so you can't say it's an outdated instruction. Have you tested them all like I have? No you haven't.
Xiaomi EU does not use the correct mix3 vendor.img, that's what causes the issue.

Xiaomi EU does not use the correct mix3 vendor.img, that's what causes the issue.

Ok, I'll put a disclaimer that this only works on RR, PixelExperience, and ArrowOS. Anyway, I'm sure that the latest stable Xiaomi.EU vendor works without any issues with ArrowOS, else why would I be using it as my daily driver.

Someone know if there is a GSI with gapps and that don't have issue with bluetooth?

SafetyPatch module
reasonablebasis said:
5. Install Magisk
a) The Magisk version that passes SafetyNet is the builds from ianmacd https://github.com/ianmacd/MagiskBuilds look for v18.2 (newer versions might work but I haven't tried them yet). You can still use the official Magisk Manager and the ianmacd version will be recognized. Just change the update channel in Magisk to https://goo.gl/yZpnrf. Credits to this thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-...mix-3-t3905754
b) After flashing Magisk, boot, install Magisk Manager, then download and install the module "SafetyPatch". SafetyNet check will now be success.
c) Even though SafetyNet is passed, some banking apps still are not working. Hopefully someone can share a solution (probably MagiskHide Props Config, or canary builds?) to make banking apps work.

Issue resolved. I had to use Magisk Manager 7.x.x, I was trying using 6.0.
Installed, MagiskHide working as it should now.

Redmi note 8t custom rom and NFC

Hi, folks. I have a redmi note 8t.
I would like to know if installing a custom rom from miui (EU, MIglobe...) keeps the NFC for payments . I have heard that you can't, that you have to do root and install a magistk module...I hope you can help me with this doubt, since I have unlocked the bootloader...thank you very much!

I have MiUiMix on Android 9 with preinstalled root. I just downloaded magisk manager app and enabled magisk hide. Payments in Poland works.

Lineage 17.1 with Magisk & MagiskHidePropsConf.
Google Pay works fine (france).
Edit: Also, Widevine still L1 so Netflix in HD, Banks app, Pokemon Go works, etc..

If I got you right, you're asking if unlocking bootloader doesn't allow using NFC. If I'm not mistaken, I could use NFC when I unlocked the phone, but I'm not exactly sure.
If you ask after installing a custom ROM NFC works, for that yes, you definitely need to install magisk. Don't be scared though, it's an easy process. Just flash a ROM, then finalize it (ie. start the mobile and setup the ROM). Once you're done with it, go back to twrp and flash magisk. Then install magisk manager (apk).
When in magisk manager both parts are green (that both are installed and working right), rename magisk manager (change it to something other than manager), let it download magisk manager again, and turn on magisk hide. Restart the phone, and in the menu you'll find from which apps manager should hide itself. Choose the banking apps and you're all ready to go.
I use the same mobile, and these are the steps I took. It's simple, straightforward and intuitive. Don't worry, you'll have NFC once you follow these simple steps.

Thank you so much for your answer... I'm sorry I didn't answer sooner, but I couldn't because of my job...
Now I have the EU stable (miui11) waiting for me to update to 12 .... recommend me another rom based on miui ? .... thanks again and a greeting!

First, you're most welcome!
Second, I didn't use any miui based ROM. Of those I tried, I fancied them in decreasing order as follows:
crDroid
LineageOS
Pixel Experience / Paranoid Android
In general, I can't say I'm dissatisfied with any. It's just minor stuff that put one over another, and all have been good in general. I use crDroid now simply because it allows more customizations - albeit I can't use front and aux cams. It's a singular issue though, as I don't read this from other users.
So I'd say try any, if you want. Because I use it now, I'd recommend crDroid but you'll find fans of all, and others that I didn't mention. It comes down to trial and error in the end.
NFC works with all four that I mentioned. In the beginning, when I first rooted and installed a custom ROM, my banking app warned me that I use a rooted phone and whatever, yet it's simple to fix. Don't worry about making NFC work, it really is easy. Step by step,
Install magisk from twrp
Install magisk manager
Rename magisk manager app
Open the app and let it install magisk again
Restart
Enable magisk hide
Restart
Then install your banking app and from magisk manager, add the banking app to hidden apps
And that's it. It seems a long process but takes five minutes.

Thank you very much for your comment my friend .....I have it in mind to install these roms ....greetings!

Question Going back to original (MIUI Global stable) after flashing many custom roms

Hello, guys! I have a question for you; I hope you could help me out with this, I've been looking over the web and couldn't find anything.
First some background.
Right after I bought my POCO F3, I unlocked the bootloader and flashed the xiaomi.eu rom, I stayed there for months, but then I wanted to try some AOSP ROMs, so I flashed crDroid, it wasn't what I was looking for, so I switched to Pixel Experience, I was pretty happy with it but some banking apps didn't work even with Magisk and zygisk and all that stuff, so I tried to flash Pixel OS but their recovery didn't work for me, my last shot was Lineage OS, but it was similar to crDroid, long story short, I decided to go back to MIUI global.
I used the official MiFlash tool and flashed the latest release of MIUI global stable through fastboot.
My concern is the following, after flashing the original rom through fastboot with the option "clean_all" is the phone stays the same as before flashing all that stuff? If not, what should I do?
Somehow I feel like there is a huge mess in the internal memory and I just want to make sure that everything is formatted, cleaned and original, like it never had any custom rom installed before.

If you chose clean all it will be like Brandon new, take note if you leave the bootloader un locked it will not pass google play store of certification, how lame right ,they want you to lock the bootloader, that's why I chose Arrow

I didn't now that, I just installed safetynet test and it fails the CTS profile match
Can I just lock the bootloader again to go back to normal? I don't plan to keep messing around with custom roms again

Thanks bro, I'll do that

You don't need to lock the BL.
Get Magisk, enable Zygisk, and use the Magisk Module "SafetyNet Fix" from GitHub. The Module did the job for me.
Might also work on Pixel Experience. ^^
I'm currently just using Stock MIUI 13.

I already did that in pixel experience, but there was just one banking app that didn't want to work no matter what I try. I really wanted to stay in pixel experience but now that I'm back in MIUI 13 with poco launcher 4 it's not that bad either, at least I have Dolby Atmos, HDR and all that stuff.

Yeah because of Dolby Atmos and MIUI Camera I'm also staying on MIUI. ^^
BTW, just to really make sure, you used Magisk Module "SafetyNet Fix" on Pixel Experience, yes?
You can try deleting the folder "TWRP" if existent (some apps check for that folder, e.g. Mario Kart). You can also try hiding Magisk App (apps also check for that app).

if you want the goodies of MIUI but also to pass safetynet without issues i suggest you to try "xiaomi eu"
they are based on the chinese rom which is ahead in terms of features and bugfixes (specially the beta) and have some optimizations to make the experience better

Tried it.. it's oky... I like Google System Apps more. Call Recording Feature was nice. :v
But unfortunately, GSI's didn't work/boot with Xiaomi.eu (Generic System Images). I like to be able to use GSI's, to try out other new OSes from time to time, Dual Boot sorta. ^^
