Is it possible to run snapchat on a rooted device anymore? I guess snapchat decided to up their security again. It seems to be that the only thing out there that will bypass safetynet is magisk, but I don't think that we can install that with a locked bootloader. Has anyone had any success besides unrooting the device?
Apparently I answered my own question myself just now playing around lol. It appears that Xposed is the culprit and uninstalling it, then logging into snapchat does work. (at least for now)
EDIT: xposed randomly let me install it finally and I am still logged into snapchat
Hi guys,
Since the last few days my snapchat keeps getting temporarily blocked, I'm on a SM-G960F (Galaxy S9_9.0_JULYSecurity) rooted with Magisk and flashed with latest Ambasadii Rom(19.0). The first 3 weeks using snapchat with root & custom rom there weren't any problems at all. Can somebody help me?

A lot of people are having the same issue. Magisk Hide doesn't seem to work with the latest versions of Snapchat. No matter what you do you will keep getting locked out of your Snapchat account. I'm a bit of a NOOB when it comes to this stuff but here is what has worked for me so far. Firstly, you have to serve your penance. There's nothing you can do about that. My most recent ban was 2 weeks. When your access has been restored delete the Snapchat app. Download an older version of Snapchat from apkmirror.com and install it. Version 10.540.31 worked for me. **IMPORTANT** You must untick auto-update of the Snapchat app in Goggle Play. Hide the Snapchat app with Magisk and then hopefully you should be OK. It's only a workaround but it's the only solution I've come across that works. Having said that, it's only been several days but so far so good. If I get locked out again I'll let you know. Good luck.

Same issue here and Im on a SM-G960FD with lightROM v23 and magisk 19.3. I tried randomly with 10.60.5.0 but it didnt work. I will try with version 10.540.31 of snapchat when my 2 day ban is over.
It's been 2 weeks and Snapchat hasn't locked me out using my workaround. So far so good. :good::good:

Follow these steps to use Snapchat with magisk -
1.) Update to latest Magisk stable build v20.0 - https://github.com/topjohnwu/Magisk/releases/download/v20.0/Magisk-v20.0.zip
2.) After updating magisk, Go to Magisk Manager > Magisk Hide and check/enable Snapchat and Google Services (all services have to be marked).
3.) Hide Magisk Manager by it self, go to Magisk Manager > Settings and "Hide Magisk Manager" so it will repack Magisk Manager with random name.
4.) Delete "busybox" binary from /system/xbin directory and install BusyBox module from Magisk Manager > Downloads.
5.) Clear data and cache of Snapchat, try to login this time, it will work for sure, if it doesn't, login to this and click unlock my account - https://accounts.snapchat.com/accounts/login?continue=https://accounts.snapchat.com/accounts/welcome
I have tried this myself and it works, my first main account was permanent banned on magisk canary build, After that I deleted that account :crying: and started out with fresh new account.
Tested on -
Samsung Galaxy S9+
Rom - Ultimate Rom v11.3
Magisk - v20.0 (Stable)
Kernel - ElementalX
Cannot delete system apps while rooted and on 11.2.2.2LE15BA.
Tried with TB, LP, and Mixplorer which all show Superuser access in Magisk.
The message I get is "Failed to locate the apk file" in TB, LP can't do it, and Mixplorer says it can't delete.
Anyone have an idea? TIA!!

Yeah it's a known issue, system is RO. You can delete via adb. I use an adb tool on the computer, very easy and it saves the deleted apps in case you want reinstall them. https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...app-manager-debloat-tool-for-android.4147837/
or use the magisk module "debloater" if you're rooted

That is a very good option and the one I have used in the past. But trying to modify the list of apps to debloat for me is time consuming, much prefer to see the apps listed on a "big" screen and simply choose what to uninstall or disable. But hey, to each their own.

Thanks for sharing this seemingly great tool. Trying to remove YouTube so I can install the Vanced version without ads and promo skipping. It cannot install over the current YouTube because the Vanced version is lower than the version of YouTube the phone came with (so can't click on uninstall all updates to revert to a version earlier than Vanced current version ).

I used "Debloater" tool (installed from magisk repo) to remove YouTube, reboot, then install Vanced. This used to be my normal process before Vanced Manager anyway, and it has always worked reliably. It requires root, but doesn't require a computer like the adb method.
I also like that I can maintain a text file of things I want to debloat after each OTA and not have to do each one separately in the future. I'm a little hesitant to do a lot of experimental debloating until we have twrp though, so right now YT and YT Music are all that's on my list.

After removing YouTube completely, Vanced still gives me an error that it cannot install due to a newer version on the device so I just ended up installing with settings changed to nonroot. The problem I had before doing it this way however was that YouTube links in a google search result would only open with the YouTube app from the play store and not the separate Vanced YouTube and if I tried it, it would take me to the play store to install YouTube. I hope I don't run into this same issue.

Last time I installed the nonroot way I also had that issue. You should be able to fix it by going to Settings > Apps > Default Apps > Opening Links and changing the settings for Vanced YouTube.

I'm not positive, but I think I've tried that when initially setting up Vanced way back on my OP7 Pro. Cannot confirm though. Did this method fix it for you for sure?

I just tested and it seems to work fine. I don't have regular YouTube installed currently, but links open fine in Vanced YT.
Using termux on rooted 1+9P
In termux enter su and grant Magisk if not done already.
Then do: pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.google.android.youtube
Voila, official youtube is gone
Anyone tried to debloat also "file" app just to keep OnePlus app as default system file manager?
So, I managed to root this beauty 1+9 Pro relatively easily.
I got Magisk installed, and hid all the Apps that needed hiding.
Even Google Pay works.
But I can't for my sanity figure out why Netflix or Android OS 11 is refusing to let me install Netflix.
Everytime I try to install the Netflix App latest APK, extracted from my old working phone ( Razer Phone 2 also rooted), it will just give me the error message " Sorry No Application Available "
Does anyone have a clue what can be done to make Netflix install in a rooted 1+9 Pro ?
Thanks.
BTW i tried several Netflix App version already.
Also I do know the APK works because I used it to install on another Tablet that will not show up Netflix on Google store.

Is Netflix currently installed as a system app? I wasn't able to uninstall that or get it working, so when I was on 11.2.2.2 I managed to fix it by installing a *newer* version of the Netflix apk that I grabbed from apkpure.com, over top of the system app. Then I had the same issue again on 11.2.4.4, and that method didn't work anymore. However, that time it let me uninstall updates to the app and then update in the play store.
I dont know how exactly, but Netflix still detects the rooted device and denies the install from google play, I think based in the unocked boot loader not sure.
I managed to install from apkmirror and is working fine now.
there is a catch though.
They are moving away from simple apk install and using apk bundles, like some sort of tarball with several apks in it, so you will need this apkm installer app for it to install the newer version. to get this installer working you need to disabled MIUI optimizations from dev options. thats all, I got mine working this passed saturday that way
EDIT: never mind with that MIUI option i thought this was a diffirent model, none the less the apkmirror is still worth a shot
I some how managed to force install it via Titanium Backup, but then it gives me another error when I try to run Netflix App.
" This device is not supported by the app "
it's running the latest version Netflix v7.102.0 build 12 35461
You have to install Magisk Canary, once you do so reboot the phone. Wipe Google play stores data and cache.. magisk hide Netflix and the Google Play Services reboot once more. That's how I got mine to work.
Install: liboemcrypto disabler
from Magisk, reboot ....enjoy

Just tried, it did not work unfortunately, it's probably related to that SafetyNet error I have in Magisk.

Yeah, I got the SafetyNet thing fixed.
However still unable to install Netflix.
still getting "App Not Installed" error, when I try to install the APK.
I tried installing the "liboemcrypto disabler " as suggested a few messages back, and also doesn't seem to make any difference.

I just did after reading this.
It's not showing up in Google Play store.
It's just so weird, everything else works, Google Pay (wallet), Pokemon Go, Banking Apps, everything else that usually will complain and refuse to run when Root is detected, are all working fine, except for Netflix.

I'm thinking maybe I'll need to un-root my phone, update Netflix, see if it runs without root, if it works, then try to root again and figure how to go from there.
... what a hassle

I did this and had the same problem while unrooted, so it turned out to be a waste of time. It seems to have an issue with the unlocked bootloader, not just root. At least with root you can hide unlocked status, which is a step in the right direction. Hide root from Netflix, and also hide magisk app itself in magisk settings.
If you're trying to install Netflix over the system app, make sure to first uninstall updates to the system app so it's the oldest possible version. Then make sure whatever version you're installing on top (whether from play store or APK download) is newer than your installed version. Older versions will not install over newer ones.

There are sai versions floating around here that work search xda also make sure you magisk hide Netflix before you open it initially. Or hide them clear cache and data on netflix

Update.
Minor good news.
I wiped the phone from recovery mode.
So, the phone is kind of factory mode, I completed the "new" phone setup thing, and the first thing I went to try was Netflix and it worked.
So... it appears to be something to do with Root and/or Magisk being detected.
Update 2
More good news, I rooted it again, installed Magisk and Netflix is still working.
Not sure why it wasn't working before, also not quite sure what was the actual fix.
I don't really consider a full system wipe a "fix" but well that did it for me.

So, I just imported Apps and Data from the old phone again via Google "setup my device" transfer, and now Netflix got disabled again.
I'll try again and skip Google transfer to find out if that helps.
I can always use One+ Switch App to see if that is better.

Seems like it worked,
I installed a full APK from my old phone and now it's able to run.
However it still doesn't show up in Google Play store when I search for Netflix.
I have been using canary successfully all week. Today I woke up to a message saying I needed to update magisk canary. When I clicked the message to open the app and see the issue it does the normal splash screen then disappears. Unlike the main version of magisk that changes it's icon and doesn't even try to open this tries. I have uninstalled and reinstalled and there is no difference. I still get su prompts when using new apps that require root, but the app itself will not open fully. Thoughts?
I was going to delete this post but I discovered downgrading from the newest magisk canary to magisk canary version 831a398b fixed everything, thought that info might help someone else.
The latest build fixes the crashing. 25208 works well.
