Yeah, I threw in the towel after reading his set of tweets and relocked the bootloader.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] XSLdesire:
does it pass safetynet after you relocked the bootloader? maybe i should relock too
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] Msan2000:
Yes it does, I unrooted and locked it and all is good now..
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] brandon5491:
Does relocking force a wipe? (I know some devices do and some don't).
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] Badger50:
Absolutely it does. Just make sure you are full stock before you lock the bootloader. If your not, you may have a very expensive paperweight on your hands ?
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] XSLdesire:
thanks, i will relock too since not much need for me now to root the phone.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] jewnersey:
Just curious. Aside from not being able to gpay, what does this limit?
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] CBMC:
Right now there are some banking apps that use safety net, McDonald's app(at least in some countries), maybe pokeman? The fear is that more apps are going to start implementing safety net now that it is implemented correctly. Sports apps that rely on root to spoof, and apps that want to try and limit ad blocking are a couple I can think of off the top of my head. I'm sure there will be others.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] imsaguy:
As others have said, the banking apps, McDonald's, phone carrier apps, Niantic apps, etc. More than a person realizes until they aren't available.

---------- Post added at 04:32 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:26 AM ----------

It does pass safety net afterwards. I used Magisk to to do a full uninstall and rebooted. Once it rebooted cleanly, I restarted once more into the bootloader and locked. I didn't want to take a chance with bricking. On selecting relock, it wants that it will cause a factory reset. The process and restart is pretty quick and you're back to a fresh machine.

I'd suggest making sure you have the Google backup turned on and that you trigger a manual backup while connected to WiFi before the wipe. It saves your applist and reinstalls them with some of their data. It copies your SMS, WiFi, and home screen settings over. You lose Bluetooth settings and anything that used fingerprint auth. Most apps will make you re-sign in. If you used Google auth, do a Google search to find how to save and export the credentials so you can set that back up again. Going forward, make a habit of documenting those somewhere secure since they aren't backed up anywhere and you can't export them without root.

Edit: Ignore the fingerprint comment for those on the Pixel 4, that was for those on the older Pixels. The rest is all accurate.

Same here, it seems whatever was causing the issue on Googles side is fixed today (but failed two days ago). I'm fully compliant myself now (and I made no changes), it's the same OS as last week when I posted the comment about Google's issues. It's fine again today so I'm happy!

I noticed today that my google play stopped working. Running June build and was okay with edxposed and magisk. Couldn't it to work so i reflashed stock rom and still cant pass ctsprofile (basicintegrity passes).

Cant seem to get it to work now even on a clean install. is anyone working on june or just march?
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] gettinwicked:
Not working for me either. I was on 11 beta 2 and it worked fine, had to reset my phone for a screen repair, couldn't get it to work. Flashed clean back to 10, same thing. What gives?
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] 1dopewrx05:
Google has introduced a new system for checking for root (Hardware check). It's a pretty big smack in the face by Google because according to the dev that made Magisk, it's going to be damn near impossible for at least the time being to completely pass safety net. Google has been slowly rolling this change out to people for the last couple weeks now. It's completely random who's phones get hit with the change, I have two Pixel 4's and one of them got hit with the hardware check but my other one is still fine and passes safety net no problem.

If you guys are going from a clean flash and failing CTS profile, I hate to be the bearer of bad news but you guys got the new hardware checking enabled and you will never fully pass safety net unless a new method of root is invented for our phones. The good news is The only things you won't be able to use are banking apps, you can still use all the other features of root.

All of my banking apps still work as well as my Google Pay even though I fail the checks. Probably because I used the Google Pay fix by [MENTION=2449699]BostonDan[/MENTION]

Hopefully this method continues to work in the future with whatever Google does.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] 1dopewrx05:
Yes, it's because of the gpay fix. It should remain working since it works currently.

[G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ducklord:
Here's the thing: I admit I might have done some things wrong. I don't know, can't remember, but I had followed every available piece of advice, made sure to go through some guides step by step. And yet, no matter what, my wife's Moto G2 somehow always ended up having storage problems, no matter the ROM I tried.

After buying a new phone, she passed down the Moto G2 to me as a backup / toy. So, is there any ROM I could flash that doesn't have any problems installing/updating stuff from Play Store, and more importantly, comes with a fully-working-no-questions-asked Apps2SD equivalent baked-in? For the first time, I don't care about the latest and greatest, but about the most painless, stable experience. By the way, am I guessing correctly in that if I use any original, old-but-stable ROMs, they'll nowadays be "unsupported" by Play (like what had happened with my ancient HTC Desire)?

[Samsung Galaxy A50s Guides, News, & Discussion] halcyon441:
so we have already known that our man, [MENTION=7915760]redymedan[/MENTION], tutorial you guys to root your beloved phone A50s by Magisk via patch the version 19.3.

well, that's sad. :(

but that ends today.

how to do it? simple.

first, do as the man told you: https://xdaforums.com/galaxy-a50s/how-to/guide-root-galaxy-a50s-magisk-v19-3-t4001271

setup your phone and bla bla bla

next, install the Franco Kernel Manager (FKM for short).

find it or buy it to support the developers. dont "warez". i dont want to get in troubles.

install the dm-verity .zip disabler, dm-verity cause your phone to bootloop when install the new version.

visit and install .zip files here https://xdaforums.com/android/software/universal-dm-verity-forceencrypt-t3817389

go to FKM, choose the "three lines", go to Flasher, pick Manual Flasher, choose the .zip you just installed.

now, wait for it to flash :)

after it flashed, go the Magisk Manager to reboot the phone, dont reboot it by physical volumes buttons, or else you will lose root. (if it occured, power off your phone, hold both volume up and power buttons when you reboot it)

since things been all set again, update to new version and enjoy :)

all test on SM-A507FN/DS (android 9), pls test on android Q for me to see if it works. :laugh:

I've upgraded from the Samsung Galaxy S7 to Galaxy S20. The S7 was on Android 8 and had the option of swiping diagonally from the corner and having floating windows. This feature is NOT the split screen view, but each enabled app could literally "float" on screen and be resized. This way I could have videos playing in Youtube and have something else such as a browser or other app open in another.

The S20 does not seem to have this any more. I have looked in all the menus and played with the recents buttonand can only get split screen.

I also did a search and could not find anything. Any other S20 owners find the same issue or have you found a way to get the floating windows?

Note: the S7 did have multi windows as a specific listed configurable item in the settings menu. S20 doesn't seem to.

3. Install Fine Lock Launcher from Google Play Store - > Install Multistar from Apkmirror (it's an app from Samsung) - > It has the exact option you're looking for and more. Just customise it to your liking.

My dash seems to be really laggy lately.

I forget where in the default tmo Rom is task manager, but you could always kill text messaging after you're done using it.

I updated my dash to ricky's rom maybe the 2nd day after i bought it, its got omap overclocking and i've sped up my dash that way.

Perhaps you need to see what programs that you have are running all the time (with task manager) and see if disabling/uninstalling apps would help.
