Question Issues with running Mass Effect infiltrator - OnePlus 9 Pro

So this is an old android game. However, I have a patched version that'll run on more recent android versions. It requires you to have the data files with the downloaded updates because the servers are dead.
So far the game works on a 5T running LOS 18.1 and a S20 on stock.
However, on the 9 Pro with LOS18.1 the game says 'Update Checker' or 'Download these files' despite it already having the required files in 'Android/data'.
Also you're supposed to block the app in a firewall program or turn off WiFi and Mobile to prevent the 'Update Checker' from running. But despite doing both of those actions on the 9 Pro the game won't progress past either screen on the 9Pro.
I'm not sure how'd I'd go about solving this problem or if anyone has similar issues with old android apps.

In need of Deploy-able Store

I've been trying to get my Ativ SE working on Windows 10. I can get it to 10166 and 10512, but wifi does not work. The only way to get the wifi drivers to work is a hard reset. This method works, but the only apps which are installed afterwards are the core functions (ms-wifi, bluetooth, etc) and those which are mandated/default by Samsung and Verizon. The Settings hub is missing, so I can only get to settings which are able to be accessed by holding them in Action Center. When I try using any missing features (like Settings), I'm prompted to download them from the Store. Unfortunately, the Store is not installed either.
Is anyone able to extract an xap for the Store or capture a cab for the Store? If I am able to deploy the Store, I think I'll be able to resolve the other issues.
Is it possible that the store is on the device, but at a different URI than the OS is attempting to access? If someone could make an app for me to deploy that had links for all known Store URI's (windows 8 and 10), that would be great.
EDIT: Another thing that would be useful is the URI for Update.

Problems installing Floating Apps on the new 2017 Nvidia Shield Pro TV?

When trying to install floating apps on my na shield pro tv 2017, it comes up with a screen called "Required permissions: floating apps needs two important permissions. Without them, it cannot work properly". The permissions are as follows:
1) grant access to storage. (This is easily done with no problems.)
2) enable drawing over other apps. (This is where the problem lies. When I click the enable now button a message box comes up saying, "Internal Android Error occurred. Configuration screen `Draw Over Other Apps` cannot be opened. Please open it manually and enable `Draw Over Other Apps` for Floating Apps. How can I do this on the new Nvidia Shield Pro
TV? Can someone help me with this problem?
I think you can enable this in developer settings - dont hold me to that though
Did you ever get this resolved? I'm having the same problem on my Shield 2017.
Me too ! having same issue. Installed older version seems to be working ok.

HowTo setup Shelter or Island with debloated stock ROM One Ui 3.1 and Android11 ?

Hi everyone,
Iam running my G981B with Android 11 and One UI 3.1.
- I debloated it using the following post Ultimate Debloat S20.
- I reinstalled "com.samsung.android.knox.containercore" and "com.android.managedprovisioning"
When I try to setup Shelter I get the message "Device cannot be setup. If you need assistance please contact..."
When I try to setup Island I get the message "Setup of the work profile not possible. Security rules of your company..."
For Island there is the possibility to do a manual setup: Island Manual Setup
However, if I execute "pm create-user --profileOf 0 --managed Island" I get the most useless response "Error: couldn’t create User".
fw.max_users is set to 10...
Is that a common problem or do I just oversee anything else which I might have debloated and blocks the process right now ?
Thanks for any help !
Okay... obviously tripped knox prevents the device from creating a work profile.
Seriously...
So is there any viable workaround to get something like Shelter or Island running ?
I'll ask to move your thread to Q&A.
I kind of solved my problem by facilitating Samsungs' Dual Messenger functionality.
If dual messenger gets enabled it sets up a separate user profile which is used with a workprofile in order to run multiple messenger app instances.
The beauty is that you can use this to install any app within that profile using adb. So basically the feature is not limited to those few apps you can tick from the settings menu.
Credit goes to @VincentThacker who is describing the procedure here:
Add non-messenger apps to Samsung Dual Messenger?
So the creation of parallel workspaces is blocked in the Security Policy of 8.0, preventing multiple copies of the same app. However, Samsung's Dual Messenger still successfully copies apps it sees as messenger apps, and allows them to run just...
forum.xda-developers.com
One additional hint from my side:
- If you install aurora through ADB in the work profile all apps you install from this version of aurora automatically get installed on the work profile as well. So no need for installing apks through adb afterwards anymore.

Actually, it doesn't seem to be Knox related: If I setup the phone (Samsung S20) from scratch without FBE encryption (by flashing multidisabler), I can set up Island with the root way and/or by ADB.
If I set up the phone with encryption, Island can't be set up like described here.

Good to know. However having the device unecrypted just to use Island is not an option. Currently Iam quite happy with facilitating Samsungs Dual Messenger functionality for it.

Lineage OS 19.1 on Pixel 5a: Now Playing not working

As the title states, I have a Pixel 5a running lineage os 19.1 with Android 12. I am unable to get the Now Playing feature working. It keeps saying either "No internet, connect to wifi" (even when I'm connected to WiFi) or it will say "waiting to download database" but never does. I'm not sure if I'm missing a Google services app or if I accidentally uninstalled something I need. I do have Magisk and am play store verified if that helps. Thank you!

Question Security message when running an app

Hello
I installed the Marriott app this morning, and when I go to run it, i get that security message along the bottom third of the screen, and the app shuts down.
What is causing that?
It is detecting root/magisk.
Add Marriott to Zygisk hide list, then clear Marriott storage&cache, force close and reopen.
I downloaded the app and installed it to test. If you don't clear the app cache (and only force close and reopen) it will not work. You must clear that before opening again
Thank you App
I followed your instructions, but I still get that message.
Should I have rebooted after adding to the list??

No. That's not necessary. The following 3 steps is all you need
I cleared storage, force closed, and run it.
I get that initial welcome screen of the app, and before I can press on the SIGN IN button, it closes forcefully.
This happens no matter how many times I repeat the steps.

What magisk version and modules are you using?
Also, what Android/oos version are you using?
Do you have device certification in play store? Or what's your YASNAC result?

After some more poking around, that app detects everything. I attempted to monitor the https traffic to see what contacts are made at app-boot. It detects that I'm monitoring traffic. I attempted to use frida to bypass the ssl pinning so I can monitor traffic. It detects that I'm using frida. All of those cause a close condition.
This could mean, if it detects anything abnormal, you're gonna get force closed. The whole toast not showing up is annoying. You might be able to adjust your font/text size for the system in Accessibility, to see the full text.
If you have busybox or anything else you can think of that might be detected, try disabling them or any questionable modules like lsposed, restart, then see if you can open the app.
I looked inside the app and don't see some of the stuff as strings, and existing strings are already using some reflected values in another index. It appears to use some kind of library that is checking for root, certification, ssl certificate pins, frida, probably xposed and so on. Then retrieving the response from an api.
My thought was to repackage the apk without root checks for you but if they're doing that much for security, there's almost no chance I will be able to launch the app with self signing for the apk.
Having the full toast response would be helpful here
Wow App.. How detailed, you are.
Here are my modules plus Universal Safetynet fix. I'm running a13 f.17 build.
I'm not sure how to proceed. I installed it on my wife's phone and used it..
Here's a reddit thread with someone else fighting with the Marriott Bonvoy app.
old.reddit.com/r/Magisk/comments/yf8gyu/help_hotel_app_detecting_root/
Its quite ridiculous that a Hotel app is so restrictive and difficult.
I just (briefly) tried running the app inside Island, but still got the toast nags / close.
Interestingly I get one of two nags "you're on an unsecure network" or "we've detected magisk, etc)
I wish that I had twrp to blame, but I don't have it installed.
Hey there,
I did some looking at older versions of the app (apkpure has them). On my phone (Android 9, Magisk 23) the last version that will run (using MagiskHide with all the 3 boxes ticked for the marriott app), is 10.4.0.
Marriott Bonvoy™ 10.4.0 (Android 9.0+) APK Download by Marriott International - APKMirror
Marriott Bonvoy™ 10.4.0 (Android 9.0+) APK Download by Marriott International - APKMirror Free and safe Android APK downloads
www.apkmirror.com
Version 10.5.0 starts giving me nags.
(Sometimes it is just easier to use an older version of an app, than fighting to get the very latest to work!)
Mine is 10.13.1. not sure what got updated. I usually don't want to get stuck with old version, so I'll just use the website to make reservation and redemption. Yikes
I heard Magisk Delta by HuskyG could hide it from detection. Has anyone been brave enough to try? Well, I tried and it didn't work. I tried the whitelist mode by leaving Marriott out of the SuList and many other banking apps too. But it still detects root. Marriott app version 10.13.1. Older version say 10.12.0 and below should survive.
