How can I change my Android Emojis to Emoji One without Root or bypass Safetynet ?

Hello Guys,
I have a Oneplus 3 with Oxygen OS 4.0.1 with locked Bootloader atm because when I try to use Android Pay with Root and Freedom OS it doesn't work
I figured out that this Safetynet fails when I unlock my Bootloader but
I would like to get the EmojiOne Emojis back in Whatsapp and Android Keyboard is this Possible ?
Is there a Way to bypass Safetynet that I can use Root and V4A again ?
(I already tried Magisk)
Greetings

Magisk has an emoji one module, root, etc while passing safety net

It doesn't work on Oneplus 3 because it's nearly Stock and the Safety Thing checks for unlocked Bootloader......
I managed it by installing a custom Whatsapp Mod and maybe a custom Keyboard soon.....

In fact, Magisk patch the bootloader dm-verity (which is used by SafetyNet to check if your device is unlocked), so juste flash a completly stock system, check SafetyNet, and Install latest Magisk with the modules you want, reboot and you're good to go !

Working perfectly with the normal way of unlocking, installing TWRP and flashing Magisk

What can you do with root before it breaks ? (Xposed,Substratum,Adblocker or V4A working ?)
What were your Steps to get it working ?
Do you still have the DM-Veriy Warning on Boot ?

I'm running Open Beta 13 with an unlocked bootloader and Magisk with Substratum. I would recommend unlocking your bootloader, flashing stock, then rooting with just Magisk, not SuperSU. I followed these steps and I have it working, SafetyNet passed.

Its working perfectly on op3 with magisk. So relax.
You must check magisk hide in magisk settings ofc.
Running latest freedomOS CE and all good. Magisk, safetynet, V4A, abblock, substratum. All working.
So stop saying it doesnt work with unlocked bootloader, thats just bull****.

Update to latest version of Freedom OS.
I think you should try updating your ROM to latest version of Freedom OS. Has everything you need.

Thanks Guys
It works

Help With Root

I'm a little lost on Root for the Pixel XL. I am currently running unlocked with Screw'd ROM - 3.1.2-****ery-20170712-1454. This is a BETA, but has been running really smooth for the last 2 days.
Security Patch Level - July 5, 2017
Vendor - NJH47D
Last time I tried to apply root while running PureNexus the phone continued to boot loop and I had to eventually flashall.bat and start over.
1. What version of SuperSU should I be flashing? The latest and newest or is there other versions that work better?
2. What are the correct steps? Is wipe cache/dalvik necessary before? Do I need to install anything on the phone beforehand?
Boot to TWRP, Flash SuperSU, Reboot? Easy as that?
I see this version being talked about a lot - SR3-SuperSU-v2.79-SR320170114223742.zip, but it isn't the latest available that I can see. The SuperSU thread states to install the latest version and using google brings me to many versions of SuperSU.
Lastly, after rooting will apps like SnapChat work? If not how to you bypass this?

So I just found some information after searching more. Some of it is dated. I currently have twrp-pixel-installer-marlin-3.1.0-0RC2.zip version for TWRP installed.
Is RC1 needed for root, and with what SuperSU version. Or which combination of RC2 and SuperSU work together?

When I was rooted I initially was using RC1, I think my supersu was V2.8? And no Snapchat, Pokemon go, and Android pay, etc, will not work. So a little work around for Snapchat, you need to log in first then flash supersu, or just go with magisk and enable magisk hide to make life easier.

Yeah I found the guide. It seems I need to flash stock image first before. So Magisk gives you the ability to root first, then download apps such as snapchat and still login if you use magisk hide?

Correct, downloading isn't a problem, but it'll just prevent you from logging in since supersu, trips safetynet

I read through this thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/pixel-xl/how-to/guide-stock-7-1-2-root-safetynet-ok-t3617347
Seems pretty straightforward, however currently I have a ROM installed I'm really liking. To do this I would have to flash back to stock image, then go through the root process. My question would be after rooting, if I went to flash Screw'd again, doesn't it wipe everything and I would lose root again, then just have to flash it after the ROM?

Myself I've never been on screwd before, I would assume so, but in my experience the pixel XL is more complicated than my previous phones

If you just want root you shouldn't need to flash the stock image again. You would need to do that if you wanted to flash a custom kernel but not for root. You need to download the modified version of Magisk for the Pixel XL. The official version doesn't work on the Pixels. I'm not currently rooted as I went back to stock but I was using Magisk. At that time the latest version wasn't stable but it might be fixed now. You need to boot into fastboot TWRP, flash the Magisk zip, flash the TWRP zip and then boot up. After you are booted up you install the Magisk Manager app. The tricky thing is installing the right version of Magisk Manager that works properly with the unofficial build of Magisk that you are using. You can get more information in the Resurrection Remix rom thread which for some reason is the official place where the modified version of Magisk is hosted if you can't find good info about which combination of unofficial Magisk and Magisk Manager you should be using. Also when I used Magisk you needed to enable core only mode for it to pass Safety Net but that may no longer be the case. You should be able to find the most up to date info either in the thread you cited or the RR rom thread. Just remember that official builds of Magisk do not work on the Pixel. You need to stick with one of the unofficial builds.

I think I got which versions of magisk and magisk manager I need to use from the other thread I had posted earlier. This helps to clear some things up for me though. I have both the .apk and the zip on my phone now. Getting a bit of a charge and I guess I'll go ahead and try it.

It worked, I'm officially rooted .Thanks for the help!

New 2XL - Starting out info..

Hi Guys,
Forgive the noobie Question; I am searching, but I’m after verification and advice;
I’m very new - I’ve just purchased myself a Pixel 2XL 128Gb today.
I’m coming from a Note 4, that had Magisk and systemless Xposed. (And TWRP)
From what I’ve researched so far, I can install root via Magisk, following this procedure;
https://www.xda-developers.com/how-to-unlock-bootloader-and-root-the-google-pixel-2-and-pixel-2-xl/
https://forum.xda-developers.com/pixel-2-xl/how-to/guide-unlock-flash-root-pixel-2-xl-t3702418
https://forum.xda-developers.com/pixel-2-xl/development/2017-11-6-root-pixel-2-xl-t3701176
And possibly get Xposed via here;
https://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/unofficial-systemless-xposed-t3388268 (anyone know which version?)
My questions are, for those who have a Pixel 2 XL, and are Rooted/Xposed..
1) Are these the best guides to follow?
2) Should I back anything up (EFS/IMEI etc) before I do any modding? If so, how? (when it’s unrooted / locked)
3) Is there any point having TWRP?
(I used to use this for backup / restore / flashing, but I can flash stuff via ADB, is there any advantage to having it?
I would like to update OS as updates come along, but if TWRP is going to cause issues, then I can go without..)
4) is it safe to use Xposed? I have a few modules I want to continue using, but read it can cause issues. What’s the safest way to set this up.
5) Is there anything else I should know / consider before I set this up / unlock / root / xpose etc?
6) Should I stay on stock, or change Kernel? Which Kernels are considered the best for the 2XL?
(I may have more questions..)
Thanks in Advance!
Brik

Dang! That's a lot of questions! Lets see....
1. Look at this guide...https://forum.xda-developers.com/pixel-2-xl/how-to/guide-unlock-flash-root-pixel-2-xl-t3702418
2. Backup EFS after twrp is installed.
3. I like twrp to backup/restore and flash kernels and magisk. Monthly updates won't harm twrp, you just install it again.
4. Many use exposed without issue. Follow the guide you already have.
5. Make sure you unlock _critical when you unlock the bootloader.
6. I like custom kernels. Flash kernel is the most popular, and is updated regularly.
7. Next question ?

Thank you very much Badger50! I'm very keen to play with this, but obviously don't want to brick it!
What's the best 'Order of operation'?
Unlock > Flash TWRP > Backup > Flash Magisk > Flash Kernel > Flash Xposed?

Run BOTH bootloader unlocking commands, this will wipe your phone!!
Reboot, then do a minimal setup, leaving your lock screen set to either swipe or none.
Fastboot twrp, once in twrp, flash the twrp installer zip, then the kernel zip(optional) then the magisk zip. Reboot and you should be rooted.
Then go ahead with your xposed installation

Bugger.
Ah.. The kernel only hides bootloader unlock, not xposed.
Can safetynet be "untripped" if a new method of hiding xposed is developed?
Apart from 'Banking' etc, is there any benefit to keeping safetynet?
(i tend use xposed mods more than nfc payment apps)

The Devs are always working on things for xposed and magisk, so maybe someday a true fix can be found. However, as of now, it's either...don't use exposed and use your banking apps, or, use xposed, and pull out your credit card :good:

If you depend on Google Pay or an app that requires SafetyNet validation, then you can't use Xposed. The purpose of SafetyNet is to check the integrity of the system, and installing Xposed framework changes that. There is no way around it.
However, some Xposed mods are available as Magisk modules, which remain hidden from SafetyNet. Open Magisk, tap the hamburger menu at top left and check the "Downloads" list. If the mod you want is not listed, then you must install Xposed and give up SafetyNet. Unfortunately, that is just the way it is.
I understand why people prefer using their bank's phone app instead of using a web browser.
But I don't use my bank's app because if I lose my phone, I don't want the person that finds it to know I which bank I use. That is just one step closer to someone gaining access to my account.

Huge Thanks for your reply @Badger50!
Managed to sucessfully install TWRP, Magisk, Flash Kernel and xposed, all without issue.
Cheers Mate, very appreciate your answers & tips.
Not fussed to lose SafetyNet. Still use cards when shopping, and much prefer xposed functionality.

Hey Guys,
I got a System message that says my XL tried to install a critical update and failed.
I assume this is because I'm running the FLASH kernel.
My question is do I need to flash this, or will the patches be incorporated into a FLASH release at some point?
Do other people bother with these? or just swipe away?
Cheers!

How to install magisk in Oneplus 5T?

I have a OnePlus 5T locked and unrooted phone having OxygenOS 5.1.7 installed. I am new to rooting and related kinds of stuff. Can someone help me to give some instructions to install Magisk in my device? I know the below steps, but at the same time, I am having some questions in my mind.
1. Unlock bootloader - I saw some commands here to unlock bootloader - https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=74504347&postcount=4 - looks like these are outdated, last updated on Dec 2017. Are those work today also?
2. Install TWRP recovery - I heard that, OxygenOS 5.1.7 is having Project Treble supported. Can I use the same TWRP recovery mentioned in the above link?
3. Root using Magisk or SuperSU. What is the difference? What is systemless root? Anyway, I need to install Magisk Manager finally - Please suggest a way.
4. And the last one, How do I unroot my device if something goes wrong? Or is that possible?
5. I don't want to install any custom ROMs, I am fine with OOS.

1. Yes the unlock commands remain the same till date.
2. Use the latest bluspark twrp which has the treble support, link mentioned is fine and if you need the direct link, its here
3. Use the latest Magisk as SU is a dead project now.
4. Whenever you want to unroot just dirty remove/uninstall all the mods, dirty flash the latest stock rom > Factory reset in recovery and lock the bootloader. I did a post here for the 6T and it should work the same way on 5T.
5. You can stay rooted on OOS no need of custom roms any more :good:
Let me know if you want to know anything else, Thanks.

1. Yes, but your phone will download the whole firmware at each update instead of the ota.
2. Yes
3. Yep you can.
4. Yes of course, but some apps will detect root. So you will have to use Magisk Hide (inside the Magisk Manager) to hide root from these apps.
Note : I didn't use OOS anymore but it seems to me that OOS overwrites root everytime you update, so keep in mind that you will have to reflash it everytime

1- Yes, but you will recieve full sized zip (1.5+)GB automatically in rooted OOS. Incremental small sized ota won't work in case of root, and don't bother with it.
The downside of updating full whole zip is that you will loose root & twrp recovery after the update. So keep in mind, you will re-install both of them later.
2- I haven't tried beta, but i am sure yes
3- any switch between those requires clean flash in TWRP (wiping dalvik cache, cache, data, vendor and system). So, make sure to have backup in safe place.
4- yes, as long as you passed the safety net in Magisk. Magisk has a feature to hide root on certain apps of your choice, so you can use banking apps later
All my magisk installed whether in oos stable or custom roms, passed the safety net out of the box. So I haven't faced issues there.

grab the latest full ota from oxygen updater by downloading it to device storage - go to system update; local update - install the ota but do not reboot - once installed go into magisk and install to inactive slot (after ota) - reboot and profit

grab the latest full ota from oxygen updater by downloading it to device storage - go to system update; local update - install the ota but do not reboot - once installed go into magisk and install to inactive slot (after ota) - reboot and profit

I assume you disable all magisk modules prior updating.

This is rather annoying. Why are we left behind?

I think it's because the Global ota's are being stored on Google servers instead of the OnePlus servers for some reason

I updated my BA using oxygen updater (download full os, settings/system/system updates/lokal update) without touching magisk at all. reboot, bootloader, reflash https://mega.nz/file/bNozXKJI#0zNfKtRw1IBqG6ojFuW3830dxXLgewmtsbbh4T4WGzs (I know its 1.1.2.4.4, but it works...) done

Flashing a non-matching boot image is a rather bad idea. Install the update, don't reboot. Then install Magisk to INACTIVE slot and reboot. Done.

I decided to unroot and take the update. I'll just wait until the full OTA comes to us before rooting. :/

Exactly, and thx for your info!
One question. Why is it necessary to deactivate the magisk module before the update? Maybe somebody knows. I forgot to disable some of them without any issues. Just out of interest, as it is mentioned or recommended from time to time.
Happy Sunday to all..

Some of the modules may not be compatible with upgrade, causing issues like bootlooping. That makes it a pain in the butt, to enter recovery and and delete the module.

There isn't a recovery yet (that can delete Magisk mods). Some mods might copy system files during installation to mess with them. Keeping the module means you might carry over system files from an older system version, causing trouble with new updates. Hence: turn them off before the update (except for stuff where you know it won't cause harm, like systemless hosts). And _reinstall_ those that modify system stuff, e.g. Qualcomm Wifi Bonding. This won't e.g. cause boot loops, but on my sons phone wifi was dead until I reinstalled the module.

Thx for your answers!! Nice to be back to Oneplus. Great community here...

Does anyone know if oxygen updater from the play store is a trustworthy source for these OTAs?
