Hi y'all, first off I have the G920P, just recently upgraded to Nougat QC7 stock ROM, modified and running the SkyHigh kernel v5.01 with Magisk v12. Everything runs pretty smooth, even got Liveboot working successfully (there's a reason I mention Liveboot.) Now I decided to try to get Viper4Android to work. Of course, installing the standard apk fails when it comes to installing the driver. So I tried the V4A Magisk module and it installed fine, however on reboot, my Liveboot no longer works and when opening the V4A app it asks to install the driver, I hit yes and it says it successfully installed and to please reboot. I reboot and of course Liveboot still doesn't show, but otherwise it boots fine. Once I re-open the V4A app it is asking me to install the driver yet again, and the whole system at times seems a bit unstable until I disable the V4A module in Magisk Manager. Does anyone have any ideas, or has anyone gotten this to successfully work? If so I'd love a suggestion lol. I really would like to keep my Liveboot working, but I'd kinda like to get Viper working too. Thanks in advance for any help, suggestions, ideas, etc.

I could not get the V4A module to install under Magisk 12; however, it works just fine with Magisk 13.
This is the version that I used: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=745425885120735287
Magisk Uninstaller (should not be needed, but if you want it) is here: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=745425885120735289
NOTE: You are, I believe using the @tdhite kernel, which is based in Magisk 12. Not sure what the impact of installing Magisk 13 will be.
The kernel is fine with Magisk v13 (beta, to be sure is all that is released there). Magisk v13 beta still has problems, so beware. The SkyHigh kernel and module are v13 compatible as much as v12, just so you know. The reason v12 is packaged in is v12 is the only stable Magisk version at this point.
The bigger issue is Magisk v13 beta working stably and reliably, but if you are willing to debug its failures, it's ok. There should be no need to uninstall to upgrade if you want to play. Reloading the kernel flash will cleanly load up v12 if all goes badly.

@koop1955 Thank you for that information! I will bookmark those so I can get back to them once v13 is reliable and stable enough for my kernel
@tdhite Thanks bud as Well! I think I will just stay where I am until the kernel and v13 play nicely. Just got this thing as perfect as I can for now, well other than ram use creeping up, but that's only every now and then, and for another topic. I *might* get my nandroid current and play a little if I get bored and want to tinker. I guess I can safely assume then the reason Liveboot stops working with the V4A module installed is because of Magisk v12...?
Thank you to both of you guys for the help and advice. At least now I know it's not some dumb issue with my device lol.

@digitalchaos1980 and @tdhite, I have had a good experience with one particular version of Magisk 13, which is why I added it to my AFH. Other and newer versions...not so much. To be expected with a work in progress.
At some point, Magisk 13 will be final and we can move forward.

Just to be sure, folks realize there is full equalizer support in my SkyHigh kernel and the bands are all adjustable, even per channel if desired, in Synapse, right? Just noting in case that's all you need, because it is a no-CPU-load way of getting it done.

What apps/modifications would you suggest for a rooted OP5T which makes rooting worth the effort?
Any magisk modules as well! Just wanted to get some idea on the best customizations for OP5T.

It's a magisk module that's flashed in twrp. It also includes adaway and viper4android as add-ons if you want. Magisk modules like camera mod m no longer work in pie, so you have to do some searching and reading to figure out which ones you like and still function. Youtube vanced can be problematic in magisk, especially if youtube has been updated in the background. New Pipe (from F-droid) is a great alternative and doesn't require magisk.
XPOSED and Safety Net PASS -- Instructions How To
I've been using Xposed because it has functionality that I don't want to give up. But "regular" Xposed won't pass Safety Net.
Thanks to @drewcu, I now have found a way to use Xposed and PASS Safety Net.
This is important enough it deserves its own Guide thread. All credit goes to @drewcu -- and of course the edXposed devs! Go here and THANK this post. Full exchange is below, but please go thank @drewcu in that post.

First hearing about "edXposed". Quick Google search, sounds interesting, and some say it allows you to pass Safety Net, which regular Xposed (I use) doesn't. Is that true?
Which Magisk version are you installing with that?

drewcu said:
Latest Magisk 19.3.
YES, EdXposed absolutely passes Safetynet (both ctsProfile and basicIntegrity)! Install instructions here: https://github.com/ElderDrivers/EdXposed but see below for the specific EdXposed version I recommend using.
I personally use magisk-EdXposed-sandhook-v0.4.0.1_beta-SNAPSHOT-release.zip found https://www.lanzous.com/b642738. Newer Sandhook versions with resource hooking like v0.4.1.2_beta and v0.4.2.3_alpha (and the YAHFA versions too) found https://github.com/ElderDrivers/EdXposed/releases introduce some LAG for me that isn't present on 0.4.0.1. Haven't tried newer ALPHA versions like 0.4.3.7 but you are welcome to see if you experience the same lag. Would have to separately install both versions, start opening apps, clicking around, and counting time till the V30 responds to see the lag I am referring to. Is subtle but most noticeable in 0.4.1.2 and less so in 0.4.2.3.
The only Xposed module I use is GravityBox(O) and there is a version specifically for EdXposed -- 8.5.3.1-edxposed (https://github.com/GravityBox/GravityBox/releases/tag/v8.5.3.1-edxposed_o), although I updated to general version 8.5.4 (https://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/modules/app-gravitybox-v8-0-0-beta-1-tweak-box-t3739929) and have no resource hooking problems with 0.4.0.1 like I thought there might be and had with general version 8.5.3. If you use any OTHER Xposed modules that require resource hooking, you will need to use an EdXposed version 0.4.1.2 or above which has resource hooking but also possibly some lag (perhaps none in the latest alpha I don't know).
So I stay on magisk-EdXposed-sandhook-v0.4.0.1_beta-SNAPSHOT-release because it works with the latest version of GravityBox no problem, has 0 lag unlike newer versions (I think an Oreo problem), and passes Safetynet just fine.
Not sure if some of the steps I took after reading a forum about Safetynet were necessary but I did them anyway -- namely:
1) EdXP Settings - Enable Black/White List
2) Black List Google Play Services and Google Play Store
3) Magisk Hide - ALL of Google Play Services

When I go to download the file, it's in, I assume, Chinese characters.
Any help.
Never mind, figured it out.
This is great. I'm so happy to have Gravity Box again.
I too had a problem with lag with newer versions of edxposed. I switched to the version recommend in the OP and all is well.
If you comfortable using "chinese" app. Taichi is simpler solution (personally), although not much modules currently supported. Both edxposed and taichi are available on magisk repo
Thanks @ChazzMatt, finally got around to installing Xposed again. Thank god for GravityBox!
edit: after playing around for a day, I'm disabling edx. I'm getting lag, force closes, unresponsive back button, and major battery drain. Sad to see the framework hasn't changed much in 1-2 years. It's not worth it for a single Xposed module.

Right. Didn't have riru-core module installed.
Thanks a lot for this guide . It's great to have xposed and safety net passing.
soo I tried to install edxposed sandhook (latest version), after a couple reboot, all went fine, but now I lost wifi and data connection (they cant be turned on), any ideas or fix? is it linked to that version of edxposed? I have a Lg ls998 converted to Us998h, thank you

Just wanted to share my experience with NFC banking and FullHD working Netflix. Managed to delete everything google and installed Microg only (to get Gcam to work), my banking app, Netflix app, Canary EdXposed and it works flawlessly! Could never get FullHD and NFC banking to work previously with Xposed. Of note was the fact I am running Xprivacy, too. Just make sure you blacklist the apps in EdXposed and also hide them in Magisk and it all works
Hope this helps others as it really made my NoGapps/Rooted stock phone experiences significantly better.

I'm having trouble getting EdXposed to activate. I'm on a fresh clean install of the TWRP flashable version of US998 30b with Magisk 20.1 installed and working, and while i've got the Riru - Core module installed (v19.5), no matter which Riru - Ed Xposed module I use I get the following error message from EdXposed Manager 4.5.2 explaining why it's installed but not activated:
There seems to be a known issue("Wrong base directory: /mnt/expand/7f941a12-b7aa-4d2a-a664-f89a46b7d86c/user_de/0/org.meowcat.edxposed.manager") with your ROM.
Suggestions on where I go from here?

Safety Net Fail w/ Gravitybox
It looks like as soon as I enable the Gravitybox module that you recommend, safetynet fails. Are you still passing with your setup (I'm wondering if there has been some update that this version of Gravitybox no longer passes)?
UPDATE: even though safetynet shows up as failing in Magisk, I am still able to use Google Pay, so maybe it is working? I'll update this post once I've tried using Google Pay to pay for something.
UPDATE again: after a couple of days, Google Pay showed a pop up message saying that it would no longer work. Uninstalling and reinstalling gets it working temporarily again it seems.
Dear @ChazzMatt
Should I install the old beta in the last page or the latest canary to avoid safety net and which versions is the best?
Note to everyone: installing xposed framework will trigger safetynet....and uninstalling it will do as well
And i don't know how to solve this except flashing a new rom
Hey guys, has anyone gotten Gpay to work on lineage 19.1? I have done the following and have had very odd results. Firstly, I am passing safteynet and my device is registered as play certified in Google play store. I'm seeing where sometimes gpay won't open at all and when it does it says it is unable to load my payment methods.
Specs:
OS - linageOS 19.1 (latest build as of this post)
GAPPS - Mindthegapps (latest build as of this post)
Steps taken:
Installed magisk, enabled zygisk and rebooted
Installed magisk hide props module then rebooted
Installed shamiko module then rebooted
Installed universal safteynet fix (zygisk) then rebooted
Configured denylist in magisk checking GPS (all), and Gpay (all) rebooted
Changed device fingerprint with magisk hide props module to a certified one then rebooted
Additional steps taken:
I cleared data from GPS, play store and Gpay and rebooted
I tried a different device fingerprint and rebooted (clearing data like above afterwards and rebooting again)
I have done a complete fresh install of my OS and tried again from scratch.
I also tried seeing is renaming magisk would help at all, it didn't
It appears I'm getting nowhere with this. If anyone has gotten it to work and has some insight it's be greatly appreciated!
Nevermind, looks like it was an issue from having the pixelify module installed as well. After I removed it it started working just fine.

Hey deathblade!
Thanks for helping me out on the other thread.
Just wanted to check in, did you use the official build or the unofficial one with the Pixel Goodies? I'm intending/hoping to have full functionalities of Google Pay using the unofficial build, but from your post it seems that I can't have the Pixel experience if I want the ROM to work with Google Pay?

Not that I've found, however I did notice if you install the pixelify module then uninstall it, it does seem to leave some stuff behind. Like I still have the option to use Hold for me and direct my call. So it might work out where you can install it to get the things you want then remove it to get Gpay working

Nope now playing is still there. I really only used it the module to force call screening to show up. But I have pretty much everything I remember from stock plus a few phone related goodies. I never tried the unofficial build but on the official I do not have that issue

Just also wanted to clarify in the case I decide to install magisk, which module do you install exactly? All of them? Zygisk/hide props module/shamiko/universal safetynet fix?

Ok so here is the breakdown:
Zygisk is not a module, but an implementation method used by modules. Magiskhide props is used to change the device fingerprint to a valid one that registers as protected by google play. Shamiko is for hiding root from Google play services, and Gpay (and whatever other apps may need it). Universal safteynet fix is used to help pass google safteynet checks (security). Not listed is the pixelify module used to add pixel exclusive features but of course with it install it cause havoc on Gpay and other apps so once installed it should be uninstalled.
TLDR
Yes all of them

Nope, I didn't. Other than the modules to hide from banking apps as mentioned above, I installed a pixel launch module here to make it for pixel-like: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/app-mod-pixel-launcher.4442077/
Other than that nothing else.
It doesn't;t work in the sense that it does not pick up music, even popular ones. The settings are there though, I can see them. It just doesn't identify any songs

I've searched XDA and tried all the suggestions, but I still can't get Magisk to open on my Tab S. It is rooted with Lineage 17.1. I downloaded Magisk V26.1, renamed it to a zip file and installed with TWRP. I uninstalled and installed 3 times and still no luck. I also cleared cache and storage. There is no hidden version of Magisk. Anything else I can try? Maybe an older version of Magisk? Should I try wiping Dalvik cache using TWRP and if so, before or after installing Magisk?
Thanks!

As you say it's rooted already why do you need to install Magisk 26 again at all, the current version already is 26.2 btw.

Thanks, but it looks like canary only supports 64 bit systems. What is the difference between delta and the official Magisk? And if my tablet is already rooted, do I even need Magisk?
You don't need the Magisk app any longer. But honestly, as long as it is rooted I simply wouldn't touch it anyway. Just leave as it is.
The newer Magisk version is rather suitable for Android 13 and younger. Doesn't need to bother you and for < A12.

Now I remember why I was trying to install Magisk I can't install Netflix from the play store (message says will not run on my device). But I found some comments here (https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...m-t705-sm-t800-sm-t800-sm-p600.4270943/page-6) who used Magisk to get it to run:

I installed magisk v23 via twrp (renamed apk to zip first),
rebooted, used magisk modules liboemcrypto disabler and magiskhide props config and rebooted, enabled magisk hide
installed netflix app via sideload and tick box in magisk to hide this app
went to netflix account to enable HD streaming for the device

I tried searching that thread for any more clues, but I can't get the "Search this thread" tool to work and didn't want to read 73 pages of posts. Anyway, do you know another way to get Netflix to work on LineageOS 17.1?
I've Netflix installed on my SM-T805 (LineageOS 18.1) without any Magisk modules. Runs fine.

Thanks again, Toscha. I wonder if it is because I only have LineageOS 17.1, the latest available for my T700. Do you remember if you downloaded it from apkmirror?
Actually I'm not sure. At least in the settings for Netflix app it says 'Installed from Play Store'. Not sure though whether it's the same for apps installed from APKmirror.
I did that a while just for test purpose. Not using Netflix actively on the tablet. And yes, it might have been from APKmirror.
Cheers

I appreciate all your help, Toscha. I'll try some other versions....though I think the one I used should work on the T700 processor.
Much obliged!
Hey Toscha, just wanted to let you know I got it to work. I was using TWRP to install but all I needed to do was use APKmirror installer app! All is good now
Tom
Glad it worked finally!
Cheers
