Hi,

I can confirm that removing the animations had fixed the problem on my phone.

Settings => Accessibility => Visibility enhancements => Remove animations

NOTE: In Developer options all 3 animations (scale) settings are turned off as well.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] x7nofate:
I also had all of those animations turned off before I did wipe partition cache
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Trexwarrior:
This worked for me too.

---------- Post added at 03:09 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:05 AM ----------

This worked for me. Thank you.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Kincsem:
Confirmed

This is the right solution for this issue.

Thank you! :good:
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Bhonka:
I tried OLEDsaver from the app store but it creates artifacts and banding on images and messes with the contrast.

Wiping the cache partition stopped it happening for 1 day but then it came back.

I've now set animations to .5 to see how it goes.

Device is a Galaxy S9.

Guys i need urgent help i am rooted with magisk and have installed latest version. i have magisk hide enabled and have chosen snapchat in the options. Magisk hide perfectly works with other apps that i want to hide it from but it doesnt with snapchat. I now have been locked out of my snapchat account for 1 week and i urgently need help. i don't know what the issue is my snapchat i downloaded clean from the playstore but it keeps saying you are trying to access snapchat from third party apps. literally any help appreciated.

Thanks

Also i do not have xposed
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] Amos91:
Unroot. Install snapchat and confirm it works. Then root and hide with Magisk.
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] vinct94:
Or you can do my trick, take a backup of Snapchat (and it's data) with titanium backup, then uninstall Snapchat and restore it with Titanium Backup, I never had to put magisk hide like this for many years now and it has always worked even with rom updates and every flash of roms I did so far.

Hope it helps.
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] Mofo50C:
Do I back it up when I'm rooted or do I unroot then take a backup?
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] poezeu:
1. Uninstall snapchat

2. Flash magisk uninstaller in recovery

3. Start phone

4. Install snapchat and login

5. Reinstall magisk an enable magisk hide bevore opening snapchat
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] neonixxx:
You're the first other person I've been able to find online reporting this issue. I've had the same problem and it started in December.

It doesn't seem to have anything to do with Magisk being hidden or being logged in beforehand. Even if I restore a logged in backup from another phone or unroot, log in, then root again, Snapchat force logs me out after a day or so. Then when trying to log in again, it'll say the account has been temporarily locked, and eventually if I wait long enough, I can log in again and have a message from Team Snapchat telling me my account was locked for X hours. I got up to 72 hours and gave up on Snapchat. Tried making a brand new account as well bad same thing happens.

I'm not sure what the hell they are detecting or how. I've never used any third party Snapchat clients and Magisk is the only thing I'd suspect them to be looking for. But I've no clue how and why no one else in the online world seems to be having this problem but us two... However, OxygenOS could possibly be a contributing factor in some way as we both as OP device (I have a 6T).
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] Mofo50C:
no i actually don't have substratum i really don't know the problem, i unrooted and rerooted however i cant actually check because im still banned for a week from snapchat i think im just gonna give up. however no i have a new problem when i reboot the phone i get the red message saying its corrupted and may not work it still boots tho but that message is really annoying
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] neonixxx:
You mean the screen that says "the device cannot be checked for corruption"? That doesn't mean it is corrupted. It just means through bootloader is unlocked so it can't guarantee the system hasn't been modified from stock. But that's the whole purpose of unlocking the bootloader, so you just have to live with seeing it whenever you reboot.

---------- Post added at 09:31 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:27 PM ----------

It's so stupid. They send you so message through Snapchat itself from "Team Snapchat", so of course, you don't know how long you were locked out for until after the fact ?

It seems to start at 12 hours and go up by 12 mkre hours each time they lock it.
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] Amos91:
Its not Titanium Backup. I have it and Snapchat with no issues (Magisk). I don't have any theme modules though.
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] neonixxx:
So the other night, I uninstalled Magisk on my old OP5T bad logged into Snapchat. Its been a couple days and I am still logged in and they haven't locked my account or anything. So it seems that somehow, it is detecting Magisk on our phones, despite any attempts at hiding it. ?

I'm just absolutely puzzled by how this is only affecting a few of us. I suppose there could be more of us out there who just haven't posted about it, like myself until I came across this thread.
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] vampyre_masq:
Something I have noticed that may help people on OOS. I have Snapchat cloned through Parallel Apps cause I have a few logins, it seems the accounts that always get banned and detect Magisk are running on the original app, the cloned app hasn't been banned once.
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] Totone56:
Snapchat can be i PITA when rooted ... Magisk Hide works currently for me on OOS 9.0.3 though.

Don't know if this changed, but it only checks for root at login. So Unrooting -> Logging in Snapchat -> Rooting with Magisk Hide enabled worked previously for me.

But right now, Magisk Hide seems to fool it even during the login process, didn't get any error message like "We can't login right now" (Which it used to say when it detected root)
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] DevonDeception:
Guys this is really lame. It started for me a few days ago. I have Pixel 2 XL and I am up to a week now as well. I love SnapChat. I did not have an Instagram until this happened to me the first time. Let them lose valuable active users when they are trying to secure more. The SnapChat update for Android is kind of trash from the few minutes I got to use it like. The camera already was supported on my device well. Now I cannot share multiple memories in one message from chat. I have to go to memories and individually send them. *edit: replaced a censored word with 'trash'
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] RiTCHiE007:
lose active users? You do understand that root users are like less then 1 or 2% so they dont really care about those uses if you can make the system more secure.
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] DevonDeception:
There are dozens of us! Yeah, well I am, or was pretty active. I don't disagree that we are small in numbers, and I'm not sure if the amount of people rooting is growing or shrinking. I have not installed custom ROM in years, but still root.;
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] qbanlinxx:
My banking app seems to recognize Magisk after a couple days no matter what I do as well.
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] DSD_CYRO:
Got the same problem on my S9. Magisk 18.1 on a modified samsung ROM. Works flawlessly without magisk, pretty much instant account-lock when I install it. Hide or not, doesn't matter.
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] RJASSI21:
Ok so I read this whole thread up to now and I have the exact same issue with an Xperia XZ Premium. Now I only rooted and unlocked my bootloader around a week ago. Prior to this when I was on oreo I used the Andromeda substratum non root method and even modified the theme on Snapchat without issues no ban what so ever. I then updated to pie on locked bootloader and still fine. Only to the point I rooted did I get ban issues. So I have no magisk modules and only around 3 root apps (one being substratum which wasn't even working for me anyway).

Yesterday it would not let me login and I found that my safetynet checks were both false and I'm not sure how they were because every other time I checked they were true and I never flashed anything. I managed to fix this by uninstalling magisk and restoring my system backup. I then installed magisk again and used magisk hide. I just got banned not too long ago.

I think they must be detecting the actual magisk app rather than root itself. That's my theory, the only way to know for sure is just to have the APK installed without magisk flashed but I don't want to get the account banned again. For now I've decided that I'll not have magisk flashed and that I'll just go without it since I wasn't really using any root apps anyway. If I still get banned after that then we would know that it's not magisk but I can report back after. I've noticed that the ban happens at 5.40pm UK time for me every 1 day.

I have an Xperia Z2 which has super su installed but it isn't rooted since I just use it as a spare phone I used Snapchat on it temporarily and didn't get any bans on that. I'll try it on my XZ Premium as is without magisk installed and if I still get banned then I'm not sure what it would be.
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] RJASSI21:
Okay so after not having magisk installed I now got a 2 day ban and I'm not sure how because I do not have root installed and all my other apps that are installed are the same from before I ever even rooted so I'm unsure as to why I have this ban now which is beyond stupid. The only thing I can put it down to now is the screen recording app I have but I don't even have magisk installed so I don't understand how it wants to decide to ban me for an app I don't even have installed. If anyone can work anything out with this is would be great. I do still have an unlocked bootloader.
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] dumbasPL:
even if you did not modify it it's still a good idea to reinstall the app after ban(or even wipe data if possible). I had this problem before when after unrooting i got banned, i formated data and then i was fine.

In the discussion of the commit we see that some people dont want this to be merged to EdXposed.

I uninstalled EdXposed and hope that snapchat wont care about Magisk so much that I will get unbanned :)

No issues here.

I don't know why is everyone here facing an issue with Magisk and Snapchat.

I have Snapchat installed after Magisk Root and everything works fine. Snapchat never caused any trouble.

ROM: EvolutionX + Magisk + Custom Kernel
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] Belvin02:
>My one user experiance negates all other reports

Magisk dev has even stated he no longer manages or cares about the hide module since march. Magisk can no longer been trusted.

github. com/topjohnwu/Magisk/issues/1152
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] kotfiol:
That's a pity. I have no idea if Vantom Kernel has anything to do w/ that. Maybe that's the cause in my case...
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] vampyre_masq:
My issues with this in the past came down to a bad revision of Magisk after they updated something which killed hide, all the latest revisions have been fine. Take note that if you use Xposed in any form even edXposed hide will not help you, Snapchat will detect it, the same goes for any apps that edit system files like happy patcher. If you have just a straight rom, Magisk and what ever kernel hide should work as intended.
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] zoltrix:
Had the dev for my ROM implement code that re-enables the "private screenshot" flag when snapchat is open.

So far so good!

Thanks!

EDIT: Nope never mind. Lasted about 30 hours. Back to the drawing board.
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] Floodland:
A sincere question: Why do you insist in using a social app that pursue users with administrative privileges? It is just so wrong that wouldn't cross my mind to even install it.

There are plenty of social engines to even worry about this loser one. Let Snapchat die alone with their policies...
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] Belvin02:
If you can make all the people that i know, the people they know, and all the people they know instantly switch overnight to a new platform, sure lets do it.

No one is going to download some weird app just to talk to you. If you can move 500,000,000 people to a new platform, and it has the capacity to handle that load, well why arent you promoting your new app and doing exactly this if its so grand?
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] Floodland:
No need to reinvent the wheel, there are plenty of alternatives to snapchat already, depending on the continent you live and the functions you use, from Telegram to Whatsapp, passing to others not so common, everything is covered, and no other is so dumb to forbid access to users with administrative privileges to the devices we own.
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] Belvin02:
Two text messaging apps are no where near the functionality of snapchat though.

"plent of alternatives"

Name some, cause you havent and keep strawmaning this mythical app.
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] scousethief:
Had this problem return.

Bought a brand new Lenovo Z5 for my daughter for Xmas. Phone works perfectly ...... except SnapChat refusing to allow a login. After a week of nagging i asked in the Z5 thread and was told to Un-root and flash the original firmware ( ie Chinese rom) as the phone was probably a Chinese Rom that was rooted and patched for the English language. Play Store etc.

Flashed the phone etc and made sure it was not rooted and everything worked including SnapChat............................. until last Saturday when for no reason SnapChat reverted back to the refusal to log in. Nothing has changed on the phone, updates have been turned off and the firmware is that same version as i installed previously so this is something SnapChat have done to their app recently. SnapChat have been contacted but they couldnt care less, literally no help at all. Lenovo are just as ignorant, despite talking to a dev theres nothing in the the thread i started 6 months ago, no suggestions, no "have you resolved this" not even a Gfy .

I was hoping you guys( and gals) on XDA would have figured this out ( as it looks like a far few people have this issue ) but it looks like im back to square one.
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] Belvin02:
You need to lock your bootloader as having one unlocked will trip safetynet and have snapchat ban you
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] olik2000:
Here is what I did and it's working for me at least,

I had snapchat on my rooted op 6 oxygen 9.0.6 and it was fine. When I installed game guardian I got banned. I uninstalled the app and logged in again after they unlocked my account, but got banned again. So, what I did was using the guest account on my phone. I used root checker and it said there is no root. I installed snapchat on the guest account and logged in using my other account and no ban. My first account is banned for 2 weeks, so I'll tell you if they ban that account again. But so far, the second account in the guest account is perfectly fine. I've been using it for days and nothing for now.
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] Belvin02:
It is just a matter of time before you get banned, because the root file system is still the same, and snapchat scans your system every time you start the app for certain folders and files

This link has an in-depth analysis of a more recent version and how snapchat will ban y ou

https://aeonlucid.com/Snapchat-detection-on-Android/
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] olik2000:
I see what you're saying, but I've been using it for about a week. I have left the app open for almost 10 minutes or more now, because I thought maybe it needs to stay open for a while to do the check and finish it. Yet, nothing. You can try it, make a new account and see what happens. I'm just waiting for my main account to try it on the guest account. That's when I will have the final answer.

Snapchat has automated systems that try to detect when accounts are being used for things like spam. Unfortunately, sometimes legitimate accounts get locked by mistake, and it looks like your account has been locked.

[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] JellyLP:
Workaround

Hello guys found a great workaround that works for me (i'm on pie and using Justin's EdXposed)

I'm using newest Snapchat version

So lets get started:

1. Hide Magisk in its Settings page

2. In Magisk Hide: Block Snapchat and all components under "Google Play Services" and "Google Play Store"

3. Download and install XPrivacyLua (can be found in EdXposed Manager App) and enable it in EdXposed Manager

4. Open XPrivacyLua and select "Determine activity" and "Get applications" under Snapchat's dropdown menu

And thats it
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] leekzyy:
Yeah, and i just used MagiskHide Props Config and it's the same. I think my device got a problem because even with fingerprint changed I can't pass the both SafetyNet check
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] Belvin02:
In about a week you will receive a ban. Magisk dev no longer cares about hiding,despite it being the 2nd thing that he advertises his program does(check his github,he longer cares about programs even if they have 1 billion downloads.they arent popular enough for him to dedicate time to it). Snapchat looks for many legacy programs as well as xposed and even TiBu paths on startup, if you have any you will be banned. It is not a IF but a matter of WHEN.

I read that, I haven't gotten banned and have been using tb forever without a ban
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] scousethief:
This happened again ( excuse my random interjections) , i reverted the phone back to its original state using the "reset" option in Settings and everything works again after reinstall..

Previously Updates were/are turned OFF etc and the phone user wouldnt know how to undo what i have done..............................................sometime later days/weeks SnapChat refuses to login. Its a very strange problem but one that stems from SnapChat and nowhere else. SnapChat were contacted and they continually blamed the Phone or the Firmware and when shown that the phone was in its original state and unrooted with its bootloader locked they switched and blamed the user.

What works temporarily is to format the phone (3-4 minutes) then block updates and reinstall. Sometimes it will last a week sometimes a couple of months but as the problem is 100% a SnapChat software issue there is really nothing that you can do.
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] spr33:
A simple workaround if you don't need notifications is to create a second user profile and use Snapchat in that.
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] Belvin02:
Even if you use shelter or island, it just mirrors the filesytem and you have all the paths they search for. Much less for creating a guest profile or a secondary user, the filesystem remains the same and all the paths they are looking for at bootup and during the use of the app are still there.

Just having root and tibu installed(which predates snapchat by over a decade) is enough to get you banned.
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] spr33:
# deleted #
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] non1oson:
interesting this, so this will avoid any bans like a loophole somehow?

tbh I like the notifications hmmm
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] spr33:
It's not really a loophole. Just make sure that Magisk is set in the main profile to be enabled only on that profile. That way, on the secondary profile, it's basically a new phone which isn't rooted so any app which searches for root won't see it, therefore, work absolutely fine.
