Enjoy the detection too...it's been fun game with niantic ... upping each other and getting around the game.

Very soon everyone is going to quit, ban or no ban, safetynet or root...

[Magisk] PoGoZombie:
Hi, I'm newbie here. May I know how did you remove magisk from a rooted device? Previously I have install (twrp) magisk.v6 + supersu.v2.76 magisk version + magisk manager.v1.2 which everything were fine. But now "Unable to Authenticate" fail to login through my rooted phone. Same running CM13.1 on opo which i'm not planing install Xposed either.

Mind to list down a step-by-step guide? cheers.
[Magisk] Rhoban:
I pretty much already quit. The only reason I even logged into the game anymore was to collect coins from gyms.

And since winter is coming, it's even harder to play it.

I mean, who wants to stay outside in the cold hunting Pokémon.

Not to mention the damage done to the phone (low temperatures affect the battery in a bad way).

Pokémon go is, essentially, a summer game. Besides, it got pretty boring. Running around catching the same old Pokémons...

Unless they add trainer battles and/or trades, there's not much incentive to play it for now.
[Magisk] exodius48:
What is your custom rom? Cm13? RR? or...
[Magisk] rsdnt:
Which app or module did you use to pass GPS as system app?
[Magisk] Fajormein:
Aaaaaand ****, had to reflash my system. Works fine now...? Don't know why
[Magisk] Simonex16:
I m getting your device isn t compatible...

LG G3 D855 MAGISK 17.1

(Tried magisk hide,removing magisk's folde)
[Magisk] EViollet:
And have you correctly checked Pokemon Go in the Magisk hide settings?

Have you enabled the Magisk Manager application obfuscation?

Regards
[Magisk] Simonex16:
Thanks for the reply.

Yes,i did it in magisk hide.

What is magisk obfuscation?
[Magisk] EViollet:
It's hiding the Magisk App. You do that by selecting the hide Magisk Manager app in the settings.

Regards

Simple fix, get your gps joystick ready before u make it a system app, after u generate the GPS joystick with it's new name, take the newly named gos and system app that one, delete old gps joystick....voila..
[Magisk] athulda:
I'm not able to open Pokemon Go

My phone is rooted, I was using it GPS Joystick after converting it into a system app. But after 1 update - there was a speculation saying that Niantic is reading the storage to find out whether we are rooted or not. I was using Magisk, So i hide Magisk Manager itself in order to get rid of the blocker from PoGo.

But if i hide Magisk Manager, I can no longer access the privileges of root.

Is there any solution for using the root privileges as well as PoGo without any hassle?

Note - I can open PoGo If I'm hiding Magisk Manager, In that case If I need to give root access how do I do that?

Thanks in advance!
[Magisk] Quinny899:
Hiding Magisk Manager via the option in Magisk's settings shouldn't break root. If it does, something has gone wrong.
[Magisk] athulda:
I just did that, what if I need to unhide it ?

How do we manage the root privileges after hiding the Magisk Manager ? :confused:
[Magisk] Quinny899:
Magisk Manager still works after being hidden. You can restore it from Magisk's settings
[Magisk] athulda:
How do I do that? I'm trying to figure it out!

Do I need to flash the magisk zip from the recovery so that Manager will be restore completely..?

Because If the click the Magisk Manager, it says

But after clicking "yes" Its downloading the latest Manager and while installing it disappears :(
[Magisk] Quinny899:
Restoring in the settings is all that should need to be done. Otherwise what you are encountering is a bug and you should post in the general Magisk thread to get help with it.
[Magisk] athulda:
Ok, I will try general Magisk thread then, Thanks for the help :o
[Magisk] SkyLink24:
Just to clarifying, i tried with more phone and this is the procedure to run pokemon go with magisk installed:

1) Go to Magisk Settings and enable the 4th option (something like "Change Masgisk Package Name")

2) Use a File manager to delete any folders relative to Magisk or Titanium from the device (maybe it's necessary also with oter root-related app)

3) Go to Magisk Hide and select Pokemon Go

4) Chack that Pokemon Go have ALL permission enabled

5) Run Pokémon Go.
[Magisk] Simonex16:
Still getting the not supported error...why?
[Magisk] DrSeussFreak:
You've provided so much info to help diagnose the problem.

The answer is... 42
[Magisk] bxlr:
I hid the magisk manager package from its settings to get rid of the not supported error.
[Magisk] multimedias:
Hey there! I've done everything you said in past posts, but I still can't run the game for more than 20 sec "device is not compatible with pokemon go". However I can run the game, so can you help me to specifica the problem that prevents me to play the game for longer time. ( Lenovo k3 note / resurrection remix / magisk with safetynet pass / hidden magisk packages / no root, joystick or magisk files)

BTW, I did the same thing with my nexus 4 ( nitrogen 8.1 ) and everything works like a charm. I tried with nitrogen on my Lenovo too, but it does not work...

Running PoGo in a work container

I have Island working with Magisk and wanted to help explain the process...

Uninstall PoGo

Verify SafetyNet passes

Install Island (or other work container app)

Open the work container app and install PoGo from within the work container (this is important because you can mistakenly install outside of the container)

Open PoGo and profit

So long as SafetyNet passes and PoGo is in the work container it should work as the work container will restrict what files/folder PoGo can read.
[Magisk] brqndon:
Upgraded to Pie and Magisk 17.1 on September release using the Essential PH-1, and now all of a sudden getting the incompatibility message. This is l already after hiding the Magic package and hiding the PoGo app.

Any tips would be super appreciated!
[Magisk] JD. A:
Did you hide both?

com.nianticlabs.pokemongo:pgp

and

com.nianticlabs.pokemongo
[Magisk] brqndon:
Thanks for your response!

I'm only seeing com.nianticlabs.pokemongo even after searching.

Also, just wanted to mention I've already deleted the MagiskManager folder from storage. Still no luck.
[Magisk] JD. A:
Yes you need to add the pgp one through the terminal. :good:

su
magiskhide --add com.nianticlabs.pokemongo:pgp
[Magisk] brqndon:
Thanks again for the prompt response.

What am I doing wrong here?
[Magisk] brqndon:
So it seems I was able to get PoGo working by uninstalling Magisk completely thus losing root, and then starting up PoGo once before rerooting again.

Will report back if anything changes.

Thanks for your prompt responses nonetheless!
[Magisk] JD. A:
I'm not sure what you did wrong. Whenever I flash a new rom I add pogo to magisk and then I add the pgp command through terminal.

Oh did you hide the magisk app? In the settings menu you can hide the magisk app by scrambling the name.

So first add pokemon go in magisk manger or the command prompt, including the pgp command also. (I'm on phone now can't be bothered with typing the code again)

Second hide the magisk manager app like I explained above.

Third remove any magisk folder.

Fourth clear data on the pokemon app.

Then you should be set and it should work. Sometimes you need to wipe the data when the app fails to authenticate when try to log in. I'm not sure if that's because of magisk though.

Report back if you solve it. :good:

EDIT: Did you type su and granted it root and then typed magiskhide --add com.nianticlabs.pokemongo:pgp? (the command above without the smiley). :silly:
[Magisk] brqndon:
I did indeed type su followed by the command, and I was greeted with the outcome as shown in the screenshot. So weird. And yes, I did all of the above mentioned steps. What got it working for me again was to uninstall Magisk completely, followed by starting up PoGo unrooted, and then reinstalling Magisk.
[Magisk] joachim123:
You need to use terminal emulator. You cannot run magiskhide in termux. I just tested the command, I didn't test if pogo works. But in termux magiskhide is not a command , in terminal emulator magiskhide is a command.
[Magisk] negroxxx:
are you a root user? would help me to configure island being root because I can not do it
[Magisk] Wetzel402:
Yes, I am a root user. I've updated my post to mention the instructions are for setting up Island with Magisk. If you follow the instructions PoGo should work for you.
[Magisk] negroxxx:
hi i am also a root user and i play pokemon using magisk. I wanted to use island but I always get the same error in the terminal
[Magisk] Scolaro:
Thank you for your instructions!

I tried Island, but even though the app installed without a problem Pogo still didn't work for me even from within the container. Someone explained in another thread that this was because Island didn't work as many users expected and that those users had their phones set up correctly already, so that's why it looked like Island was working for them. At least that was the gist - I tried, but couldn't find the posting of that person with the proper explanation, sorry about that.)

Then I read about Secure Folder for Samsung and tried to install it on my Note 4. Of course the official version refused, as the Note 4 is not supposed to run Oreo, so I got the latest .apk. It wouldn't start though, not even after hiding root from it.

However, after uninstalling Island, Secure Folder, Magisk, Magisk Manager and Pogo I tried again to get Pogo to run with root with the following steps:

https://github.com/kantjer/MagiskFiles

-> Install latest unofficial Magisk Manager (5.9.2.r12)

-> Flash latest unofficial Magisk version (v17.2vr12) in TWRP

Restart phone

Magisk: Safety Check passes

Hide/Repackage Magisk Manager

Magisk: Safety Check passes

Rename Magisk/root files ("Magisk..." into "M_gisk...", remove the word from "Magisk Manager" versions on SD card etc.)

Install Pogo,

don't

run it afterwards

Hide Pogo in Magisk Manager

Start Pogo -> Pogo runs

I'm a bit paranoid because in the past every time I thought I had the solution, the game would stop running 5 minutes later or upon restart, but I've started and restarted the game the whole afternoon and it seems to be running without a problem. OF COURSE I immediately created a NAND backup of my current setup and will only update the ROM and Magisk with trembling fingers from now on, but currently I'm carefully optimistic it may continue to work...good luck to anyone who still has problems. :D
[Magisk] Wetzel402:
If PoGo was installed correctly it should look like the attached screenshots. Your PoGo launcher shortcut should have the work container icon.

If it still doesn't work for you then I'm not sure what the issue would be.
[Magisk] Scolaro:
That's exactly how it looked, but I still got the "device not compatible" error. Not to worry, though. It works now without Island, and even if it didn't I'd just remove Magisk again. Also, what works 100% for one phone doesn't necessarily work for another - this is not the only thread that clearly proves that. Most important is that everyone finds a solution that works for them (that's also why I posted my steps - they're not special, but they may still help someone).

Still, thank you for taking the time to help out! :good:
[Magisk] PokemonTotalWar:
Hey there, I'm trying to use strace to see what my Pokemon Go is detecting (I have two accounts, so I want one in Island and one not, like I used to), but every time I attach strace early enough to detect the file list, it crashes. If I connect it later, it doesn't crash, but obviously that's not useful. Is there any way to make strace work for this now?

---------- Post added at 05:04 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:59 AM ----------

There's no reason to hide pgp anymore -- Magisk was updated a while ago to include subprocesses in MagiskHide. Add the main Pokemon Go through the Magisk interface and take a look at the log -- it adds pgp as well
[Magisk] JD. A:
Is that oreo or pie specific? Since without hiding the pgp I cannot get it to run on my nougat device.
[Magisk] PokemonTotalWar:
No, it's Magisk 16.4 or newer. I mean, it's possible that it's broken and does help you for some reason, but it was specifically because of pgp that Magisk was updated to look for subprocesses, so you shouldn't have to
[Magisk] robbayani:
any trick, problem solving etc about pogo should placed at first page..
[Magisk] kend0g:
Hey guys I'm not using island but i couldn't get Pokemon go to stay open soon after like 2 minutes the screen would pop up saying i couldn't use it on my OS.. So thought this might help someone else... I upgraded Magisk manager and installed Magisk 7.2. I installed Pokemon go, hide pogo on Magisk manager, hide Magisk manager, cleared the repo.. And the only other thing i did was change the "Magiskmanager" folder on my SD Card too "M_giskmanager" rebooted and everything works fine now.. Btw I'm on HTC10 Viper6.0. I did not change any of the other file names with anything to do with Magisk but the one folder name that was it. Didn't mess with anything in the root folder at all.

Thank you guys for the original instructions i really appreciate it.

Need some help with Pokémon Go.

I'm rooted w/ magisk and SU is hidden from PoGo. Whenever I open my spoofing app, and go to Pokémon go it says Device or OS not compatible. Whenever I close my spoofing app I'm able to use PoGo but it throws an error (11)

Using Resurrection Remix OS on HTC ONE M7
[Magisk] SethPDA:
Which app you're using? Is it converted to a system app?
[Magisk] Scolaro:
That's pretty much what I did, with the exception that there was never a Magisk Manager folder on my SD card, probably due to my running a custom ROM.

Note, please, that unexpectedly Pogo's "device not compatible" error popped up again after I'd run the game successfully for a few days, but the same steps with a newer Magisk version worked once more. I guess it's not super stable, but currently the only way I can play without giving up on root completely.

What I can't figure out is why Magisk fails SafetyNet every once in a while. When that happens Pogo doesn't work anymore , but everything (SafetyNet, Pogo) runs fine again once I've restarted the phone. Minor issue, of course, but still puzzling.
[Magisk] Wesley_NL:
guys, magisks works fine but howcome pokemon go still detects it?

i enabled hide magisks, and it gave random name, i deleted old folders, i added pgo into magisks hide and still not able to play
[Magisk] Scolaro:
Not sure that makes a difference, but I also renamed all root-related files I still had on my SD card.
[Magisk] Wesley_NL:
I dont know if titanium backup is scanned might be that, i use it to complete backup apps, also have a magisk module to block adds that could be the problem to, thats all i use root for atm

[Magisk] 135Shadowsoul:
Good morning

since yesterday evening (~10h ago) i have problems with po/go (v 0.119.4), too.

Even it is hidden by magisk, magisk manager is hidden and SN passing, po/go tells me my devices (LG G6 with AICP 13.1 (Android 8.1) and my Samsung S4 with Opt. LOS 14.1 (Android 7.1.2)) are detected as "not compatible". Especially on my S4 i did not change anything since yesterday evening. maybe po/go got a new way to detect root/modified devices? i checked folders on internal and external storage, but none of them pointed to root, or does TWRP trigger it?

edit/addition: i even removed the external storage, still getting "not compatible"
[Magisk] Scolaro:
I'm not using Titanium Backup myself anymore, but seem to remember some posts that said it tripped Pogo, so it could indeed be a factor.

Same happened to me. Everything was working fine, I didn't make any changes or install any new apps, but when I went out to work yesterday morning Pogo 119.4 was suddenly insisting my device wasn't compatible. Usually I just flash Magisk on the fly, but it didn't work either. In the end I uninstalled Magisk completely so I could play on the way to work and later on uninstalled Pogo, installed the latest Magisk Manager version and Magisk, hid Google Play and Google Framework, hid Magisk, installed Pogo, hid Pogo in Magisk Hide and ran it. Despite the fact that this was exactly the same setup (minus the latest Magisk Manager version) I had before, Pogo was running again.

TWRP doesn't seem to trigger it, by the way, I started to rename that folder on both the internal and external SD card early in my experiments, but later forgot and the game ran fine anyway.

I do have some root related files on the external SD card, though (for flashing stuff on the fly as described), and am taking great pains to renaming everything that could be suspicious to Pogo --> my custom ROM, all Magisk/Magisk Manager files, the Pogo files and any .apk files for side-loading apps. Not sure it's what's causing your problem or if you just need to reinstall your setup again as well. At any rate, good luck!
[Magisk] 135Shadowsoul:
yeeey, thanks mate *pressing thanks button after writing ths reply*, it works (at least for now...)

edit/addition: seems to not work persistent :(
[Magisk] Wesley_NL:
It indeed is titanium backup
[Magisk] DenyDarko:
Kinda off-topic but for apps backup check out swift backup.

Not that bloated with features as titanium but in active development and not abandonware.

It gets the job done.
[Magisk] MauerTower:
I also use Titanium Backup and have no problems running pogo so I don't think this is the problem.

Yeah mine is acting super weird. After months of no issues on 16.0, I can't get anything to work

---------- Post added at 02:15 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:00 PM ----------

After months of working fine on 16.0, now i am unable to get anything to work consistently. On magisk. 17.1 I get incompatible after a bit. Everything seems good but it usually stops. As of this, I repackaged the magisk manager name, hid pgo and the other app I use, I can login fine but banding and incompatibility cause issues
[Magisk] xijar:
Okay guys, been having issues myself on OnePlus 3T on latest update (Android 8.0). Could not get pogo to work even with safetynet passing and all settings properly set up(Magisk Hide, Hide Magisk, etc..). It would let me log in sometimes but then some random amount of time from seconds to minutes the incompatible device message would pop up so I rolled back to the last update of Android 7.1.1 and now everything is working perfectly. Just thought i'd share. Using magisk 17.2.
[Magisk] Voty:
Is there anyone with working PoGo and rooted phone who can help me with some things ? Right now i have only Magisk and not sure which is the next step.

Can please someone send me a private message ? dont want to spamm here.
[Magisk] yannahzinha:
In my case I'm getting "unable to authenticate" problem on my Zenfone 2 with LineageOS 14.1. I played just ok last night but since this morning I just can't login.

Tried a lot of common and obvious ideas...no luck.

Any ideas? I'm with Magisk 17.2 already...SafetyNet shows invalid.

[Magisk] Tr4sHCr4fT:
Don't play PoGo but getting "SafetyNet response invalid" since today also.

Even after uninstalling Magisk. So looks like ZF2 isn't supported anymore by big G
[Magisk] Pavamarea:
I'm wrong, safety net is not ok here, "response invalid". Omg.
[Magisk] Tr4sHCr4fT:
Yeah looks like GPay, PoGo and other stuff is once and for all dead on unlocked ZF2. ⚰
[Magisk] yannahzinha:
Not sure if is just for unlocked zenfone 2 users...I saw some user kinda angry about this and they seemed legit players. I don't wanna lock my phone again to test it...so let's wait about some news.

-----------------------------------

Update:

I confirmed, at least about PoGo, that even legit players are having issues with the game (unable to authenticate). Don't know if we can expect some miracle or we're done with our pokemon journey with Zenfone 2 + magisk...but let's wait.
[Magisk] Tr4sHCr4fT:
done because we never got kernel sources to make one with bootloader-state-hiding patch ?
[Magisk] EViollet:
My wife had issues with her ZenFone3 phone yesterday. PoGo refused to authenticate. Her phone has NEVER been rooted. So she had the same symptoms as you are seeing. However, her problems went away once she rebooted her phone.

I also have a spare Z00D phone that doesn't have Magisk but has an unlocked bootloader. This phone no longer loads PoGo.
[Magisk] yannahzinha:
Yes, atm the only solution is lock again the phone and wait a solution/miracle for our device. My only hope remains in the fact that many Zenfone 2 users are still with problems, even without any software mod. ? So...let's wait.
[Magisk] Tr4sHCr4fT:
is relocking even possible? i know there's a thread about but i'm yet to find someone who could actually confirm it works.
[Magisk] yannahzinha:
Yeah, technically there is and I have done the procedure a few times before. I'm thinking to try this tonight....
[Magisk] yannahzinha:
Zenfone 2 back to the game!
[Magisk] EViollet:
Nice.

How did you do it?

Edit: just checked, and magically went back working...
[Magisk] Danny94:
Well i did not play for a longer time (2-3 months), it looks like i can't access anymore. (Device/software not compatible...)

Using latest magisk.

It does exist a newer list of apps wich arent allowed.

Having root or semi root apps installed like:

Afwall, Greenify, KernelAdiuter, Link2SD, Terminal editor, Titanium Backup, Leandroid, Battery charge limit, AdAway, Magisk manager

btw hide magisk manager is checked and i selected pokemon go, play store in the magisk hide menu.
[Magisk] yannahzinha:
Titanium backup and Greenify are too risky. Saw many people complaining when have one of them installed. Because of PoGo you have to be very careful with modules. Like Xposed some of them simply can't be hidden very well.
[Magisk] Danny94:
It start magically working again.

I dont know exactly how, i just delete some files on my sdcard. Maybe because i had a magisk.apk still there.
[Magisk] yannahzinha:
Aaaah, this is important... you need to delete any zips or pastes with magisk, su and anything about root. PoGo search infos inside phone internal memory.

Hello everyone, i have a question/problem.

Is there a way to downgrade Google play services? i actually managed to uninstall updates but it didn't downgrade the version, I have 14.x and wanna go back to 12.9 in order to test the fly gps in a new account.

Is there anybody who could tell me how to do that? or someone who has done it because i don't even know if it works or not on a custom rom.

Currently i'm trying it on a Xiaomi Redmi 4a with crDroid + gapps.

Thanks in advance for your help!
