Unless I'm missing something obvious, I didn't have chance to freeze it. I installed it from apk earlier in this thread, then activated with PIN. It then configured, and while I was waiting for it to finish, I looked up, and it had locked and disabled me. I guess I was hoping the initial config would fly then I would freeze....but no go.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Zirillian:
I may be missing something, but I'm not sure why you are freezing GFE at any point for any reason for a normal install. The steps I would follow (that have worked for me in a similar situation...I just did this today):

1. Once root is detected, just close out of GFE.

2. Clear data/cache for the GFE app.

3. Reboot, install xposed, reboot.

4. Install xposed GFE blocker module, reboot again

5. Install GFE 2.4 apk.

6. Type in a new PIN from IT.

7. Profit.

Quite literally did this today and it worked fine. The only case I can think of needing to go the freezing route would be if you upgraded your ROM. This was the reason for my reinstall today...I upgraded from PA 4.41 to 4.42 and completely forgot to freeze GFE and make sure xposed was working properly before reopening GFE. My mistake.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] CannibalAngel:
Currently on GFE 2.5.1.363. Will this module work for this version of GFE?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] clintonroche:
It is working on that version for me.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Hilbe:
How'd you get it working? Just run the xposed module?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] pamulli:
Changing ROMs?

Sorry if this has been answered. I looked through a lot of posts and didn't see it.

I currently have the latest GFE working with the Xposed module and would like to switch ROM's, but requesting a new pin is very problematic. Does anyone know if I can freeze it with TB, back it up, change ROMs, get Xposed working again and then restore the backup without triggering a pin reset? Also, if there is any step I missed please let me know.

Thanks,
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Zirillian:
Not 100% positive it would work during clean rom switches (with a factory reset and everything). However, I did that last night when upgrading PA versions (dirty flash). Anyone else have experience with freezing and restoring with ROM switches?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] hawkeyejoe:
I've never had any luck with restoring GFE data via TB. Even with Xposed module I get a compliance failure when restoring data. I just bite the bullet and request a new pin. But I have access to a webpage to request a new pin whenever I need to so it's not that difficult. What process do you have to go through to get a pin?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] thatguy222:
I'm using a Nexus 5 with XPosed and this module. On both Paranoid Android and CM, when Good gets to "Retrieving Settings" it closes. No error message.

I ended up going back to stock and it works fine.

A few weeks back I was using it on my GS3 with Xposed and this module (same version: 3.1, I believe) and it worked just fine.

Any ideas what might be causing this?

Thanks!

Hello guys, Im back and......It works!

Hi, my situation "Android wise" has changed and I must go rooted again. Therefore I returned to check up on the current status of this thread.

I read everything through here and did the following install procedure (Just for everybody, like me, who are not to deep into the technical stuff)

1. Installed Xposed-framework via this link: Xposed framework 2.7 experimental1

2. Installed the Xposed module from Phantasm4489 via this link: Xposed GFE module 3.1

Set Xposed to "no auto update of xposed app or modules" in settings / Download (Unceck "enable downoads")

3. Reboot via xposed app (full reboot)

4. Installed GFE earlier version via this link: GFE-2.4.0.315

Set the GFE to "no auto update (see below for info)

5. Started GFE and entered the PIN. It took like 5 minutes for the "starting services" but everything went fine.

6. Updated to the newest GFE over googleplay: GFE 2.5.1.363

7. Shut down and started Android like normal (no quick boot at next startup)

Everything fine so far.

Big thanks to calisro & Phantasm4489 & everybody else who contributed

Edit: Forgot this info:

Device: Lenovo P770

How to set only the good app to "no auto update"

:

i. start Googleplaystore

ii. go to "my apps" and click on the app

iii. on my phone it is on the "menu" button on the bottom of the screen

iiiv. uncheck the "Auto-update" -> Done

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] clintonroche:
On beans ROM note 3 and the module is working fine here. I have root and gfe is working fine

Probably helpful if you let people know what device and ROM you are running. I can't help but the OP might be able to

Is it working for you in PA and CM as well?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] McKayCR:
I'm not successful, I got it installed include the latest 3.1 update. Good just crashes during "Retrieving Settings"

UPDATE: I need to learn to read... disregard. I'm up and running, however updating the Good did not work, I will have to remain on the version I download from this post.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] akarol:
Same here. Really annoying considering I can't do UPDATE ALL on the PS anymore.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] hawkeyejoe:
Same for me as well. I've tried a hundred times and can never get the new version to work. It always gets stuck retrieving settings.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] akarol:
Well. I just found out that Titanium Backup can detach the app from the PS. This removes the app from always trying to update.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] McKayCR:
Thanks for the heads up. Just detached.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] McKayCR:
Never mind, Titanium shows it detached but marketplace is still asking me to update it.... I must be missing something.

You need to use version 2.4. Later versions don't work.

Apparently we have to detach it after every reboot. Sigh
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] McKayCR:
I was toying with the idea of a scheduled task in Titanium. It has the task of detaching, but it doesn't have "upon reboot" condition, only date and times.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] akarol:
I wonder if Tasker can handle this for us. I'll look into it and report back.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] akarol:
After some research I have found a solution! Here are the steps:

The only way to do this I've found so far is to :

* Download the gfe_3_4_0_315.apk

* Install ZipSigner from play store (FREE)

* Re-sign gfe_3_4_0_315.apk using ZipSigner by selecting the apk as the input and choosing a different name as the output (MAKE SURE TO CHANGE THE EXTENSION OF THE OUTPUT TO .apk) and selecting "testkey" as the Key/mode

* Uninstall the original app and install the re-signed Apk

* DONE!

Give this a try and let me know. If you're having difficulties, let me know and I can send you the re-signed apk that I created.

Hey all,

is this xposed module device related ?

Does it work on all devices the same way ?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] hawkeyejoe:
Once again this post has saved my ass as I accidently updated GFE and for some reason I always get a compliance failure no matter what I try when updating. I think I'll keep this apk on my SD card from now on...

Good on Nubia Z7 mini

Hello,

i have a Nubia Z7mini, Rom 1.42, but still to be detected as Rooted.

SuperSU has to be updated when i run it, be installation doesn't succeed.

So as i can't be unrooted, i tried to hide root for Good.

I tried to use Connectbot but without success.

So i tried to use Script manager.

When i run "egdr", i got this message :

sh -e '/system/xbin/egdr'

/system/xbin/egdr[6] : basename : not found.

what's wrong ?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] cruise350:
2.6.0.363 is the new version of GFE is trying to update. Does anyone know if the current fix is working with the new version they are pushing today? It won't let me uncheck auto update so eventually it is going to come through.

Edit: I just let it update and the newest version fails the compliance check. I uninstalled and restored my TB backup and all is good. Whatever you do, don't let the 2.6 version install until an update to the exposed script is available.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] jonsharky:
I had no issue. Just updated the app via play store directly. No issue at all. Still works! Awesome!

after restore from TB backup, it can open but unable to get new mail
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Phantasm4489:
Stay well clear of today's update for time being.. they have added new security features including what looks like the ability to detect the xposed framework. This will most likely require quite a bit of work to update the module
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] cruise350:
You can't just restore from TB. You have to delete data after restore or only restore the app. You have to let it go through the whole setup again, including entering your pin.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] hkfriends:
yeah... cool, it works now
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] mcastagnaa:
Too late for me unfortunately. I updated and the compliance check fails.

Unfortunately I don't have the titanium backup (yeah, lazy me). Any other workaround besides waiting for the new version of the xposed module? Thanks.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] dabrowsk:
Not exactly...

For me what is working is:

1. Go offline in Good and quit it

2. Backup with TB

2. Try to update Good

3. If it doesn't work (I mean compliance issue), I uninstall Good, and restore from backup. It works without going through setup.

Device Administrator

So I dirty flashed a nightly update to the ROM I am using and forgot to enable xposed before running Good and I got a compliance failure. So I had to uninstall Good and install again. I installed the 2.4.0.315 apk that I have saved on my SD card. After going through the provisioning process I am now getting a screen saying that Good needs to be activated as a device administrator. I've never had this before. Is there something I'm possibly doing wrong or is this a setting on the server side that my employer must have just turned on?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] clintonroche:
You need a new pin. From your employer usually IT.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] hawkeyejoe:
Not sure if you were replying to me or not. The new PIN is not the issue. I can generate a new PIN whenever I want to from a self-service portal. I did a backup in TWRP and then allowed Good to be an administrator. The message said it would have access to wipe my phone, disable camera, enable lock screen, and a few other things. Appears the only thing it did though was force me to turn on a lock screen. I never use one so I was thinking this was going to be a pain in the ass but it turns out that I can set a gesture unlock so I set it to be just the normal swipe to unlock that I do all the time anyway. So no biggy actually. I'll be pissed if they end up disabling camera or wiping the phone for some reason.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] vault1965:
This is normal if your IT has enable it in console. Good in this case will have unlimited access on your phone and in case you disable this function it will fail compliance check even if you are not rooted.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] hawkeyejoe:
Ah ****, it wouldn't let me keep the swipe gesture to unlock. Had to set a PIN or password. Probably for the better anyway. I shouldn't have been rolling without a PIN for so long.

Edit: So I tried pattern unlock and that works. I wish gesture would work. Still a pain though.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Noname-2013:
Hi, what a bugger. My phone updated the app for some reason automatically. I could swear that I disabled the "auto update".

Any idea if there will be an update o fthis Xposed module for the updated GFE App that was rolled out on Sept 3rd?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] clintonroche:
The OP already said that it would take a few days since it is very code intensive.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Phantasm4489:
I just started looking into this in more detail today. The security stuff is much more well implemented this time around. I think it should still be doable and I've got some ideas how I might approach it but it will be Monday before I can spend any more time on it
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] vivelafrance:
Thanks. I wasn't being impatient though, I was just enquiring cause for other Xposed modules, for instance the Barclays one, it came to a point where it wasn't possible to go forward and now the Barclays app is not working at all anymore on rooted device. So just wanted to know if it was going to be the same thing or if there was going to be a solution. Thanks again!

I was also asked because I'm gonna have to ask for another PIN to my employer and they have to be entered within 12 days time. So I can't ask for it too early either. lol
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Phantasm4489:
if anyone wants to help out with testing on the new version of GFE and doesn't mind potentially getting locked out numerous times and can easily request or get activation pins for their account feel free to give me a shout. Please consider though that you will be running completely untested xposed modules on your machine that probably won't work at least initially.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] vivelafrance:
I wish I could. Unfortunately the way it is set up for me, is that if it detects root, not only the PIN becomes invalid but my whole account is deactivated on all of my other devices so... sorry
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] hawkeyejoe:
I could probably be good for a test or two. I can get a new PIN at any time through a self service portal so that isn't an issue. The issue is the potential email downtime though till I get a chance to request a new PIN. So I could do a few tests for you but not more than once or twice a week. Just let me know!

GFE v2.4.0.315 auto updates even if....

.. i have the auto update unchecked. That is not good. It happens almost instantly after the app is started even before I reached the "enter key and email page". Any ideas why this is happens?

I have now tried to install the v2.5.0.350 from the link from "techepet" above. Started the app again but cancelled at the"enter key and email" screen. It still have not updated. I will wait until tomorrow to enter the new key as I really have issues getting new keys.

Could it be that the app only accepts one below latest version and overrules the disabled "auto-update"??

Thanks to all for your effort.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] hawkeyejoe:
I'm still on v2.4.0.315 and it does not try to auto-update. Maybe it's a server side configuration by your IT department to enforce auto-updating? I don't know if that is a possible setting or not though. Maybe someone with more server side configuration knowledge could chime in.

No idea what I did differently but I don't want to mess up the good thing I have going (pun intended).
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Phantasm4489:
the updated module shouldn't be too much longer now. I've got something that seems to work - just doing some final testing now before release.

i'll most likely post something on here later on today for more widespread testing before i update the xposed module repository with the latest version.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Phantasm4489:
As promised, here is the updated module which should stop the latest version from detecting root.

There is still some issues with GFE just closing itself down which may or may not be security related but at least there's no root detection so it won't lock you out. This module still includes the old patch code so should still work with the older versions of the app too.

Report back how you get on with this and if there are no major issues i'll update the xposed module repository with this version.

Maybe its device dependent ? Dunno if HTC Android handles the stuff like Samsung Android. I think there might be a difference.

Maybe even there is a difference between rooted Stock ROM vs rooted Custom ROM.

Maybe we should gather some information when something is not working.

Which device? Whicher Superuser app? Rooted Stock Rom or custom Rom ? Which Xposed Version ? Which Androidversion ?
