[Xiaomi Mi 8 Lite Questions & Answers] cidxtc:
The best custom rom for your device is the one "you" like best. If you want an experience like stock google then try Pixel rom. If you want massive customization then try havoc. If you want a better miui experience try xiaomi.eu or mi-globe. If you don't know what you want try them all.

Pixel Experience for the Mi 8 Lite is dead it would seem....

[Xiaomi Mi 8 Lite Questions & Answers] androidext:
What rom are supposed to use now? Evolution X seems dead like Pixel experience. The only ROM that seems alive, Miui apart, is Mokee, because in their website are updating nitghlys almost everyday, but I'm afraid tot test it... Someone here is using the mokee rom? Thanks.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Lite Questions & Answers] cidxtc:
Not used in in a long time. Mokee is basically a lightly modified Chinese version of CyanogenMod/LOS. Which is why it has nightlies.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Lite Questions & Answers] peestandingup:
I believe they're bot builds anyway, as the maintainer left some time ago.

I personally use the official Syberia ROM. Its super fast. Before that I used beta AOSmP for a while. It too was fast & lean. Some ROMs/kernels are kinda laggy, those are not.

The private beta of miui Q just got released for our device so there should be some builds come along soon using the PHH base for custom aosp Q roms.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Lite Questions & Answers] androidext:
There is no platina device for Syberia ROM, at least in his official site. And the last AOSmP ROM is on September. This looks very bad... :crying:
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Lite Questions & Answers] peestandingup:
You're right (its not official). Still darn good though. https://drive.google.com/open?id=1ADil-K8rEd4yB9hnKtBq2A5v0E2f3WLL

Get Edxposed, Magisk, and GPay to work together.

1. Install or make sure you are on latest Magisk Manger (7.5.1 or newer)

2. Install or make sure you are on latest Magisk (20.3 or newer)

3. Hide the following in Magisk Hide

-Google Pay

-Google Play services, only select the following

-com.google.android.gms

-com.google.android.gms.unstable​

-Google Play Services for AR

-Google Play Store, select everything but com.android.vending

-Google Services Framework

-Nfc Service​

4. Install the following modules

-GPay SQLite Fix (Full Edition)

https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=79643248&postcount=176​

-SQLite for Arm aarch64 devices via Magisk Manager

-hardwareoff by [MENTION=6345368]Displax[/MENTION] (Thanks to [MENTION=5058180]Kris Chen[/MENTION] for making me aware of it) or use MagiskHide Props to set check to basic and fingerprint to Pixel 3a
​

5. Reboot

At this point make sure you have GPay working before installing edxposed. If for some reason you are unable to use GPay try deleting data for Google Play Services/Google Play Store/Google Pay

After you confirm that GPay is working then move on to installing edxposed

1. Download and install Riru - Core via Magisk Manager

2. Download Edxposed Manager (4.5.4 or newer) (Don't Install Yet!)

https://github.com/ElderDrivers/EdXposedManager/releases/​

3. Download Edxposed (4563) (Don't Install Yet!)

I'm personally using the YAHFA version.

https://ci.appveyor.com/project/ElderDrivers/edxposed/history​

4. Once you have all these files downloaded turn on Airplane Mode and install the Edxposed Magisk Module (Magisk -> Modules and press the + sign, find the downloaded zip and select it, Magisk will install it) and Edxposed Manager APK and reboot

5. Once booted up remain in Airplane Mode

6. Open Edxposed Manger and go to Settings and turn on "App List mode"

7. Exit and reopen Edxposed Manager

8. Go to Applications on the side menu (should say "Black List" on top) and select the following apps

-Google Pay (may not be needed)

-com.android.nfc.auto_generated_rro_product_

-com.android.nfc.auto_generated_rro_vendor_

-Nfc Service

-pixelnfc (new in Android 11)​

9. Go to Settings on the side menu, at the bottom of settings find and enabled "Pass SafetyNet"

10. Reboot and turn off Airplane Mode

11. Optional* Hide Magisk Manager

Note. Steps 4-9 should be done in Airplane Mode, this will keep anything tripping safety net during the setup process.

Thanks for this [MENTION=2067958]eg1122[/MENTION].

After soft-bricking on my first try, I've been wondering what the working version combination is.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] xdeslitx:
The one that is available to me is an older version maybe that's what caused my bootloop? Why does my screenshot look like crap?

How does using Xposed affect monthly security updates? Do you have to disable or whatever? I'm not sure I want to do this, I'd rather not cause problems.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] tardis_42:
Got xposed installed and running thanks to this thread, but the module download screen is empty - just shows the refreshing icon and "module list will be loaded in a few seconds" forever. Anyone else seeing this?
[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] eg1122:
I disable big modules like Xposed when I update. Then re-enable them once update is completed. I'll put a step by step here.

When phone detects update

1. Disable any desired Magisk modules, ex. Edxposed

2. Reboot

3. In Magisk, select Uninstall, press Restore Images

4. Do NOT Reboot

5. Install OTA Update via Settings -> System -> System Updates

6. When prompted to reboot, Do NOT Reboot

7. In Magisk Manager press Install

8. Select Install to Inactive Slot

9. Reboot

10. Enable the Magisk modules one by one

In case of bootloop after enabling a module there are 2 ways that I know of on how to retain root and fix bootloop.

One requires ADB

While phone is stuck in bootloop, connect phone to PC and run this commands via ADB.

adb wait-for-device shell magisk --remove-modules

adb reboot

This will remove all modules and you should be able to boot.

The second way is via fastboot. More information in this thread.

How do you install edexposed via magisk? I haven't rooted since the P1 so I'm out of the loop here sorry.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] eg1122:
In Magisk, go to Modules and press the + button, then find the zip and select it.

Thanks...

FYI, Riru - EdXposed v0.4.6.0_beta (YAHFA) via Magisk also works.

Did someone install the new riru 19.6?
[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] eg1122:
Installed here, no issues. SafetyNet still passes
[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] TheBobMiller:
Anyone else having Safety Net trip all of the sudden?
[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] eg1122:
Yes, I opened magisk and edxposed manager then closed them and tried testing it again and it passed.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] TheBobMiller:
That's odd. I just tried the same and it's still failing. I had an update to the Google app last night and I'm wondering if that was the culprit.

Edit: I hid Magisk Manager app and it passed once I did that. Not sure why all the sudden it required that but hope this helps someone.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] dortok:
It's not working for me all of a sudden either. How do you hide the app?

Edit: I opened Magisk and EdXposed as eg1122 suggested and it worked.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] kidhudi:
thanks OP i just finished the process and eager to try it out tomorrow (fingers crossed)
[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] neo_lithic3K:
I also just started getting that Gpay/Magisk warning this morning. As TheBobMiller mentioned - you have to go into Magisk Manager, Settings, and use hide "Magisk Manager." It'll then repackage the app and you can give it a new name. I rebooted right after hiding Magisk; not sure if it's required or not. Then I went into Gpay and clicked on the warning to check software again... and it passed.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] dortok:
Has anyone updated to Feb release and can confirm Gpay still working?
[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] eg1122:
I've updated but haven't used gpay. I have opened the app and everything seems fine, cards are there and ready to use
[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] finshan:
Just got the Pixel 4 XL. Rooted, feb patch comes out so I uninstall via magisk and reboot (I want to do this, because I wanted to purge root), do OTA update through settings, download new image for boot, patch through magisk and flash in fastboot, now I have root again, everything's great. THEN.....

Install riru core > reboot > everything's good > install edxposed yafa > reboot > stuck at google boot logo

What do I do from here? Is there a way to uninstall the edxposed stuff via ADB or something so I don't have to totally start from scratch (assuming my phone isn't a permanent brick right now)?
[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] eg1122:
No brick...try the following

While phone is stuck in bootloop, connect phone to PC and run this commands via ADB.

adb wait-for-device shell magisk --remove-modules

(this will remove all modules)

adb reboot
[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] finshan:
Oh my God you're a miracle worker!!

BTW you don't need adb reboot, the first command immediately reboots the phone.

Ok so at this point I have basically a stock brand new pixel 4 xl, rooted on the latest February patch. The patch was taken via natural OTA (not sideloaded) and rooted via official stable magisk manager patching the stock February boot and flashing it in fastboot.

At this point, what can I do to get exposed working? I don't use gpay or anything, I only want root for gravitybox and adaway.

By the way I should say: my magisk has added systemless hosts to make it work with adaway, if that has any effect.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] eg1122:
Flash riru core via Magisk, flash yahfa 4.6.1 (attached in op), reboot. Don't flash earlier versions of edxposed that will cause bootloops
[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] finshan:
Thank you. How do you "flash yahfa"? I've only ever flashed anything via recovery but I assume nobody here has twrp...?
[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] eg1122:
In Magisk go to modules, then press the + sign, then find the downloaded zip and select it.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] finshan:
Ok you have been exceedingly helpful and generous. I would suggest updating the OP with questions I asked if it will help others, but do what you think is best.

Thank you so much!

I'm using 4.6.1 (not the Snapchat module) that is found under canary section. The setup as far as what is hidden is exactly what's in the OP
[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] eg1122:
I can confirm that following the OP with march update, everything is working as intended.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Soumy1234:
I have an OP7Pro running OOS 10.3.1, Edxposed version 4.6.4 (Juxstin's Snapchat Yahfa Sepolicy version found in Snapchat tab of Edxposed Manager). I have followed the instruction of the OP but after a while, Netflix and others disappear from the Play store, even though I pass SafetyNet and my device certified in Play Store. Is there any workarounds for this? Maybe it's Widevine?
[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] eg1122:
I haven't had that issue, maybe hide Netflix and those others in the edxposed blacklist?

Also, somehow NFC detects edxposed and it gets disabled and gpay will refuse to work. I ended up black listing 3 nfc apps in edxposed and it's working again. If anyone can confirm this I'll add them to the OP steps.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] eg1122:

[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] brandon5491:
This is exactly what I was looking for and can confirm. I also had to blacklist NFC Service in Magisk as well for NFC to work (change to say "hold to reader") after a restart.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] eg1122:
Good to know, I'll update OP

BTW, ever since I blacklisted nfc I don't get any more random safety net fails
[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Neff_V:
I can also confirm adding NFC Services to the blacklist solve the temporary failing safety net.????
[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Soumy1234:
I only have these apps for NFC on my device. Is this enough?

Just a heads up, ctsProfile has been coming back false all day and it is not an edxposed issue. I removed edxposed and same thing happened. Looks like we need a magisk update or there is an issue on Google side of things.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] brandon5491:
Can confirm... I have it too. Nothing new installed either.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Neff_V:

[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Kris Chen:
It seems to have something wrong with pixel4xl for ctsprofile fails because my another phone - OP7Pro without problem and it can pass safetynet check.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] eg1122:
Others are starting to report issues in the magisk thread. Probably affecting pixels first because of the feature drop or March ota, I'm sure it will get around to many more in time.

I managed to get everything passing. Just install the following Xposed module.

It seems like SafetyNet is back. For now at least...
[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Kris Chen:
Yes.

That proves why some of guys can still use gpay even safetynet check - cts fails.

Or even me to use the way that eg1122 said here to make safetynet check all pass and use gpay in the store ok.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] ncsuwolfs:
only works once

every time i follow these steps it works, i add cards, and it will work one time.. i think it stops working when i reboot, not sure, any ideas? (nothing i searched in this thread has worked). When i safety net check in magisk it fails too, but passes at first
[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] eg1122:
I've had to keep edxposed manager open in the background to keep it working. Try opening edxposed manager before you pay to see if it works
[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] ncsuwolfs:
only works once

Tried it at same store and no go
[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] i5lee8bit:
Weird thing... I have a Pixel 4 XL and my wife has the Pixel 4. I pretty much set up both phones identically (mods-wise). Stock ROM and kernel March 2020 (XL and regular), Magisk root, EdXposed, all latest versions, etc. Same Magisk and EdXposed modules on both.

In trying to make Play Store certified again, I noticed my phone's SafetyNet would pass but hers kept failing. Long story short, I boiled it down to the one thing that would trip SafetyNet was when Google Pay was checked in the Black List for EdXposed. Somehow, and luckily I guess, I must have forgotten to check it off on my phone. Neither of us actually use Google Pay (I used to but it's been like a year) so it's not super important. Not sure if it still works without it being checked off in the Black List, but it's a better trade off for us to be able to use biometrics for some of our banking apps that disable it if device isn't certified / SafetyNet fails. Although when I open Google Pay, it does say it's ready to make contactless payments or whatever and doesn't indicate any problems.

Figured I would post this here in case anyone else is having the problem.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] eg1122:
Just unchecked it on my end and still passing safety net and can use Google pay. Nice find.

[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] eg1122:
That's what I'm on right now
[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] kveikur:
I have a banking app that is able to detect EdXposed.

As soon as I disable the EdXposed module in Magisk the app runs fine.

I have already tried adding it to Magisk Hide and the blacklist in EdXposed Manager (deleted the app's data afterwards just in case).

SafetyNet is also fine (ctsProfile and basicIntegrity are both true).

Is there anything else I could try?

I'm running:

Magisk 20.4

Magisk Manager 7.5.1

Riru Core v19.7

EdXposed v0.4.6.1 (4510) (YAHFA) (tried Canary builds as well)

EdXposed Manager v4.5.5 (45510)
[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] eg1122:
Maybe XprivacyLua can help? Not sure to be honest. If the app has a permission to see package names or get app list disabled it via XprivacyLua.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Soumy1234:
Maybe try Storage Redirect from the Play Store? It helps with apps that detect the TWRP folder, for example. Not too sure if it'll help but it's worth a shot.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] kveikur:
Thanks for the suggestions, no luck unfortunately.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Soumy1234:
Maybe try the root cloak Xposed module, then? There are certain keywords that you can hide from apps, and I think it has the ability to remove native root detection. Or maybe there is a modified version of your banking app that removes its detection?
[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] TENN3R:
Definitely worth trying, I used rootcloak in the past with banking apps, and I can confirm if you want to hide root/xposed from some apps this is a must.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] kveikur:
Thanks, RootCloak didn't help either, unfortunately :/

I'm not aware of any modified versions, the app is still fairly new (and it's probably too small anyway).

If you want to try for yourself: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=at.rsg.pfp

It will either detect just root (warning message only, app is still usable) or when EdXposed is active (SafetyNet passes though), it will launch a website in the default browser and prevent using the app.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] eg1122:
