Works pretty well, but there's more setting up to do than SnapFreedom. You're a lot less likely to be banned though. I haven't been banned in months.
[Xposed Framework Modules] tycoon78[stoner]:
You must be on oreo. Coz the problem of ban starts only when I upgrade to pie
[Xposed Framework Modules] TevW:
I used to be on Oreo, then I upgraded to Pie, but I'm still not banned yet. I know there's been a few things with EdXposed lately with it not passing SafetyNet, so maybe it's that? Idk. Maybe I'm doing a few extra things you might not be to avoid detection?
[Xposed Framework Modules] TevW:
Figured I may as well post a small checklist of sorts for potentially reducing the amount of bans from Snapchat.

This is what's used with SnapTools, so it may have an effect with SnapFreedom. You never know.

XPrivacyLua

Install it from FDroid or Xposed Repo and check the boxes for "Determine activity" and "Get applications" in Snapchat's tab. You can also enable the "Get location" option to use SnapMaps without giving Snapchat your location all the time. I don't think you can edit what value XPrivacyLua uses, so you're always south of Ghana.

Magisk

A few points, these probably don't apply, but they're still worth doing.

Repackage it through Settings -> Hide Magisk

Update to 19.0 in the Beta channel

Make sure to block all components under "Google Play Services" and "Google Play Store". There's a few things that aren't blocked by default that might trigger SafetyNet.

Snapchat

Hoo boy...

Don't use anything higher than, and including, 10.41.6.0. It's pretty much a ban-fest. With SnapTools, we use 10.20.5.0 and 10.26.5.0. Those are probably your safest bets. Also, if you plan on downgrading, use 10.39.7/1.0. Something in how logins work has changed in the later versions, so apps like Preferences Manager don't work.

Theming your app should be okay. I did it for months and never got a ban.

Only give it the bare minimum permissions. Storage, Camera, and Microphone. Location too, if you're into being tracked by your friends and Snapchat.

Do NOT use modified apps. At all. Ever. They're the easiest things to detect, and they're not worth it when apps like SnapFreedom and SnapTools exist.

If you want to block ads reliably, you can use this Magisk Module. This WON'T stop bans.

Snapchat also logs your device ID. If you've received a temp-ban prior to this, make sure to change your Device ID. If you're on Oreo, you can use this app. If not, you can use Titanium Backup to change it. The latest version with this function is version 8.2.2. But honestly, the most reliable way is to reflash your ROM.

Just as a suggestion to the mod author, think about adding a function to repackage SnapFreedom to a random string. If Snapchat catches your package name and checks for it, you're going to get banned. XPrivacyLua should stop this, but I wouldn't leave it up to the app alone. Users however can try doing this for themselves with APK Editor Pro, which has a function to change package names. I haven't tested this myself, but I don't believe it should mess with the app's functionality.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Inferi0r:
I am on Android 9 with:

Magisk 18.1

Riru Ed Xposed 0.3.1.7

EdXposed Installer 2.2.4

SnapFreedom 2.9

Snapchat 10.52

- Magisk SafetyNet check fully working

- Snapfreedom reports that compatible Snapchat is installed

- I have used Magisk Hide for Snapchat

Still cant login: "there was a problem connecting to the server. Please try later again"

Same Snapchat account is working on my iPhone as it should.

[MENTION=1800422]Inferi0r[/MENTION] Have you turned off EdXposed when logging in?
[Xposed Framework Modules] tycoon78[stoner]:
Which version of snapchat n snapfreedom u using? Did u put snapchat in magiskhide? R u using xprivacy lua
[Xposed Framework Modules] PoochyX:
Putting Snapchat in Xprivacy one of the quickest ways to get a ban on Snapchat and have to unlock your account

[emoji3436]I Willl Scarfice For Those That I Love [emoji3434]
[Xposed Framework Modules] TevW:
Ah, I've been banned using SnapFreedom on both Oreo and Pie, and on a few different Snapchat versions.

Using MagiskHide shouldn't really matter, as root detection doesn't cause bans. It only stops you logging in.

Also, yeah. As said, I was using XPrivacyLua at the time, and I still do with SnapTools. Haven't been banned in months with ST.
[Xposed Framework Modules] PoochyX:
You don't use the xposed module xinternal with your daily driver right?

[emoji3436]I Willl Scarfice For Those That I Love [emoji3434]
[Xposed Framework Modules] TevW:
No. Also, spoofing Snapchat requests through XPrivacyLua is a big step in not getting banned.
[Xposed Framework Modules] PoochyX:
That module interferes with snaptools I have to turn it off so I can use snaptools and then turn it on when I'm done with snap just use snap to talk with thots low key [emoji1006]

Wym xprivacy helps with Snapchat I have the module and just use it for the gms hook so I won't get annoying message to download Google play games while Im playing games

[emoji3436]I Willl Scarfice For Those That I Love [emoji3434]
[Xposed Framework Modules] TevW:
How so does it affect it? Also, as I said in the post above, make sure to only select "Determine activity" and "Get applications" in the drop down menu, though I have been told that it works with more than just those values checked. I very much doubt whatever was messing with your setup was XPL.
[Xposed Framework Modules] PoochyX:
Na xprivacy wasn't messing with my setup xinternal was cause it only reads the module pack from SD card with the module enabled and even when I go in xinternal and disable it for snaptools it only still reads module pack from SD card that in itself isnt bad what is bad is when I direct video snaps to download they always fail to download to the SD card or internal storage when the xinternal module is off the videos download just fine to the SD card or to internal storage

[emoji3436]I Willl Scarfice For Those That I Love [emoji3434]
[Xposed Framework Modules] TevW:
Well that sounds like a weird pathing issue you have. SnapTools is localized to the folder at /sdcard/SnapTools/. I haven't heard of modules not being readable, or the use of XInternal in my time on the support server.
[Xposed Framework Modules] PoochyX:
Test it for yourself

[emoji3436]I Willl Scarfice For Those That I Love [emoji3434]
[Xposed Framework Modules] TevW:
What, SnapTools with XInternal? I don't use an external SD card

I'd assume using that to change the default paths in the android API as it describes broke it in some way.

I'm not a dev. Just a support monkey.

[Xposed Framework Modules] TevW:
If you're using Xposed, that may still be getting you banned.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Artnig:
Guys it's simple as snap detecting the riru core and that's it. Just use the oldest version that let's you login before you re-enable Riru and you won't get banned. Running for a month now no bans with no snap modules either, but other edxposed modules working fine.

It doesn't detect anything aside from riru core in later sc versions, but maybe it's been fixed in the new version 18 riru core. Cbf to try it because I'm fine with whats worked for me over a month now, if anyone wants to give that a shot.

[Xposed Framework Modules] DawoodSahi:
What version are you using?
[Xposed Framework Modules] TevW:
Not sure where you're getting that from, but Snapchat doesn't detect Riru Core. Or at least, it doesn't flip it's lid if it does.

Also, you can log in and use whatever version you like. Just log in to 10.39, back up your preferences with Preferences Manager, then install the version you want and restore those preferences you backed up.

Development on SnapTools has recently started up again, but just because it stopped doesn't mean it doesn't work. To be honest, people are being banned less with ST than SF. Not sure if that's SF or a lack of preparation. I can't say.

[Xposed Framework Modules] Artnig:
Just because you can't login while having riru enabled in magisk, have it disabled and it lets you in right away, even if you still leave the edxposed module enabled. At least that's what I think after trying a couple of different combos to get some mods working.

No, my "solution" is only a solution for people that can live without SF/ST and don't want to get banned for using EdXposed + Riru + Magisk

[emoji3436]I Willl Scarfice For Those That I Love [emoji3434]
[Xposed Framework Modules] TevW:
It would help if the module itself didn't tell you to use literally the worst versions for remaining undetected. Plus, it doesn't warn you that you can be banned, and it doesn't suggest any ways of preventing it.

I've been using 10.49 for a while cuz anything else autoupdates to the new UI (why does SF even have them supported if Snapchat autoupdates itself serverside no matter what ?) and I've had no issues, my last ban was when i had to deal with these ****ty new Snapchat app versions and SF (before reverting to 10.49 cuz it's the last version that doesn't autosabotages compatibility with SF)

---------- Post added at 01:24 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:22 AM ----------

Snapchat versions 10.50 and older autoupdate themselves upon being opened, UI redesign that breaks compatibility with SF and cannot be reverted unless you use 10.49 or older

---------- Post added at 01:28 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:24 AM ----------

Ok but did you use xprivacylua to deny snapchat access to certain permissions? Did you use AppOps to deny snapchat the permission to sniff through your installed apps?

Also you said you got 3 bans from using snaptools, which isn't supported anymore and gets detected, if you wanna use the newer SnapTools go to their discord or whatever to find the newer version or use Snapfreedom
[Xposed Framework Modules] xringo:
My bad I meant to say I got 3 bans from using snapfreedoms, not snaptools. I did not use Appops but I did use xprivacylua and selected determine and get applications and still nothing.

Idk what his emoji was since for me it's just text but he was kinda being sarcasticly making fun of what you said

---------- Post added at 01:45 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:31 AM ----------

You need to use appops to access snapchats hidden permission and deny "request install packages"

After you got that and xpriv set up to deny those things

- clear snapchat app data

- go to magisk and disable xposed (unless you have an xposed module installed or such that lets you sign into snapchat by bypassing safetynet requirement and stuff.. if that's the case just sign back in and use snapchat)

- reboot, sign into snapchat.. as soon as it finishes showing the login screen and you see the camera force quit snapchat and turn off wifi (temporary) then clear snapchat cache and open any file manager you got

- go to /data/media/0/download/ you should see a blank file that has a weird name (letters and numbers, mine for example is "2811fb90a1302h") delete it, it's a file snapchat makes

- open magisk, turn on xposed & reboot

- upon reboot turn on wifi and open snapchat

Also just in case you should add snapchat to magiskhide before doing all this, just sayin
