Snapchat, Snapchat, Snapchat....help please

So, i've used Snapchat on both
Stock (5.1.1 - Oi1 Rom) and Custom Rom (Renegade)
I can't seem to get it to work on the custom rom, i've always had to use the stock rom and it would work just fine, but on the other it would say "temporarily logged out" or something different, but when i boot back to stock, its fine and doesn't hesitate to say that.
Am i missing something here?? i've already tried resetting my password 5 times to be sure.
Snapchat 9.1.17.1.0 -- Xposed Snapprefs 1.6.2

Snapchat and Root
I don't use Snapchat, but this might explain your issue:
http://www.xda-developers.com/snapchat-is-at-it-again-and-blocks-root-users-but-for-how-long/
Snapchat detects Root and stops working, XDA builds a work-around into Xposed, Snapchat puts out a new patch and repeat.
Found something new: Try updating to Snapprefs 1.6.4. And you will find more help here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/modules/app-snapprefs-ultimate-snapchat-utility-t2947254

Thank you!
I've actually ended up researching and figuring it outmyself my way or work around.
Snapchat checks or scans to see if "Xposed" which leads me to not log in.
So in order to use Snapchat with Snapprefs or 3rd party, you would need to either
Install stock and root it, then log into snapchat with the latest version and then go to recovery to install xposed.
or
Install stock and root then boot to recovery to install the custom rom and do no install xposed framework.
Once done with booting up and setting up, install snapchat latest version, log into it and then install xposed.
once thats done download 'xinstaller' and check to enable downgrading and updating and then install 'snapprefs' for all the
juicyness of customizations.
Profit!
My configuration.
Snapchat -
9.17.1.0
Xposed -
75 wanam 20151008 - seems to work best for me on both roms instead of v79.
Snapprefs -
1.6.2

I found a work around for it my phone died and I signed into my sc from another device used it and logged off when I tried signing in on my phone I got temp login failure notice this is what I did to get back on:
On a second device, download latest version and sign into Snapchat
Once done, root second device and download titanium backup
Make a back up of Snapchat from second device and send the .tibkp back up or whatever to the first device
On first device download latest version of snapchat and titanium back up and restore the data only from the file you sent to the first device from the second device
Once done use sc like normal
Works fine unless you sign out from Snapchat on the second device so what I did is I froze Snapchat on the second device and erased the back up.

Why does Snapchat do this? Does anyone have any idea why?

They make a silly app with an unenforceable premise, the app sucks and they block third-party alternatives, their security is awful, their background data drain is known to go nuts, and now they are blocking root users so they can better charge you for replays??
But still they can't tame the root..

Camera not working after root

So I have the xt1710-01 variant of the z2 play and I just got root with magisk. I went on Snapchat and tried to respond to my friend, and it says that my camera wasn't working. I went to the camera app built into the stock firmware and it says to restart my camera. I then got an app that restarts it with root privelages and I still get the same error.
I found somewhat of a fix, but I have to uninstall magisk and reboot without root, then I can use the camera. Then flash it with TWRP again later.
Can someone please help me find a fix? I'm on the stock firmware up to date as of 10/5/17and with the latest magisk update.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

(Guide) To Install Google Floating Dialler on Mi A1 without root or MOD

Hi Mi A1 Device Holders,
I was curious of Google Floating Dialler on my device running Android O. So tried a modded APK from one of the threads. However I couldn't install the mod on to my device when it was in Beta stage. After several attempts.
Now Google have released a new version v17 in which the floating bubble dialer is enabled by default. You may refer to the below link.
https://www.xda-developers.com/enable-google-dialer-floating-bubble-2/.
So I wanted to try it again and went to Playstore and it doesn't allow me to download. Tried downloading and installing from Apkmirror. However I couldn't install it.
But I managed to install it with a small tweak.
Here is the Guide:
1. Hold the Phone app Icon and Click App Info
2. Scroll down to Option Phone App. If it is showing YES, you will not be able to install the new app. So you need to change it NO.
Note: You will not be able to do it without another Dialler app installed on your phone. For this, I installed TrueCaller App and then changed it. You may try with other dialer apps.
3. Install the latest app downloaded from ApkMirror or the one attached below.
4. Again, hold the Phone app Icon and Click App Info and shift the Phone App from True Caller(in my case) to Phone app.
5. You are done.
Enjoy :good:
Hit a thanks if you like it
P.S:
I was using v16 which got automatically updated from Playstore from the previous version. On top of that I installed the V17. My device is not rooted and using stock os...and I find absolutely no issues or lag or whatsoever

well in my case i just installed it and it worked voilaa.... Thanks for link

Thanks for the APK. I was able to install but now I can't search for contacts using T9 dialer. I now need to manually tap the search bar on the top and type in the letters.
Even manually searching is really slow and delayed.
Any fix for this?

Edit: The problem goes away if I roll back to the default Phone app, but comes back once I reinstall the above Apk.
What's going on here?

It's working fine with me.. I find no such issues. You may try clearing the cache/data of the app. See if it helps.

I tried that but it didn't help. Any other ideas?

I figured out the issue! For some reason Google Phone v17 did not work well with Contacts v2.4.
T9 dialling was very slow to search the contacts (10-15 seconds).
I tried everything from reviewing permissions, clearing cache, removing accounts etc. But nothing worked.
Finally I decided to manually check apkmirror and update the Contacts app to v2.5 and presto! Reduced lag when using T9 dialling!!
There is still an ever so slight lag compared to when I roll back to the v13 Google Phone, but it's much more usable now. Hope this helps!

Sent from my Redmi Note 4 using Tapatalk

Have you tried setting the new phone app as the default and disabled the old one?

I was using v16 on January stable build and all was fine then i downloaded apk of v17 from apk mirror and it was also working fine aftert that i changed my rom to new February beta and now after installing v17 when i open phone app a popup appears everytime with a message that this app is not compatible and calls may not work correctly. Even though app was working fine but that popup was irritating me so i modded my phones build prop to pixel xl 2 and now Phone app is compatible with my Mi A1 and i can see it in play store aswell ??????

I was using v16 which got automatically updated from Playstore from the previous version. On top of that I installed the V17 and I find absolutely no issues or lag without build prop changes. Moreover, my device is not rooted for your info...

nothing for now.

How have you enabled HAL3?
I tried TWRP terminal, TWRP File manager, Magisk root and several apps to enable it with no success like BuildProp, Root Explorer and so on.
Every time I edit build.prop it is reverted to original values.
I have been able to even downloaded to my PC and the values are changed but after restarting or after changing the folder the file is reverted to its original values.
Thanks

Give up and using Android 9.

why do other android 10 devices have it tho? is it just a lack of developers for the max 3? I mean we had it already so technically it should be possible

I think some module in the Android 10 on the Mi max 3 are missing ,that why we couldn't have Camera 2 Api is enable... wish we could have a patch to add the folders and files we need to add the option . Like other we can't add some values in the build.prop ,it's restore to the original value .

Gcam works on gsi with a10 vendor, so it's something messed up in system

How has you enabled it?
I tried Magisk and HiddenProps config modules with no success.
I'm currently using MIMAX3Global_V11.0.1.0.QEDMIXM.
Thanks

I have managed to enable camera2api, however some library is missing and no camera app seems to work, not even OpenCamera app. The steps are provieded, however beware that THEY WILL BREAK ANDROID OTA UPDATES - You will have to flash everything from fastboot to unroot and restore OTA before further firmware updates.
If someone has libraries/apk to provide I'll be happy to test!
Done on: MIMAX3Global_V11.0.1.0.QEDMIXM
The steps for rooting are following:
fastboot boot orange-fox-recovery-10.1.img (recovery.img file)
install latest magisk zip from magiskmanager[dot]com (roughly 5.7MB Download)
reboot
open magisk manager, the following steps are done on the start screen of magisk manager
uninstall -> Restore images.
Advanced, uncheck Preserve AVB 2.0/dm-verify
Install/update magisk again, but from from inside magisk manager
reboot
add 'persist.vendor.camera.HAL3.enabled=1' and 'persist.camera.HAL3.enabled=1' to /system/buld.prop
reboot

Did you try GCam and if with the good version if it's working?

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

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 ....
