Hi folks,

Long time since I've been on Android (Last device was the likes of the P20, ZTE Blade, OnePlus series etc).

Picked up the Pixel 7 Pro for development purposes and flashed beta - All is well. Just struggling to get Google Wallet, Santander bank, Barclays bank or Starling bank to function with root.

I've flashed Magisk of course, installed the Universal Safetynet fix, hidden and renamed Magisk, enabled Zydisk + enforced blacklist with the bank apps, Play store, play services and wallet selected completely then rebooted. Google store says device is not certified so doesn't look like I'm passing play integrity which would explain the issues with banking apps and wallet.

Any tips or tricks or should I just unroot for the time being?

Thanks very much 👍

Update - Seems Wallet has randomly started to work (ie I've added three different cards) but still cannot access Santander, Barclays or Starling! Chase and Lloyd's worked by logging in prior to rooting and Amex worked anyway without any troubles. Just need to get them three last ones working so would appreciate any assistance!

Santander randomly worked after I switched to airplane mode to open the app then switched it off 🤣 - No idea how this even makes a difference or if it's a coincidence!

Starling and Barclays still refusing to play ball though

Sike - Santander stopped working. Looks like I'll be reflashing non patched boot.img and waiting for a more stable solution!

Welcome back!

I'd suggest checking USNF mod version. I have had issues with other versions in past but v2.4.0-MOD_1.2 works flawlessly.

See my post #426 for version I am using without any issues. Alternatively, you can download v2.4.0-MOD_1.2 if you are using any different version. This is the only version passes safety net (at least for me :))
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] CurtisAndroid5:
Thanks for that Aks! I'll give it a shot when I get a minute this weekend! Have reverted the boot.img back to stock for time being!

Have a good one!🍻
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] roirraW "edor" ehT:
Howdy! Besides @Aks's excellent answer, I just wanted to address what might have been just a typo above where you said you reverted the boot.img. On the Pixel 7/Pro/A, in order to achieve root, it's the init_boot.img you modify with Magisk (and flash to the init_boot partition). You don't have to touch boot.img or the boot partition.

You probably already know, but I just wanted to make sure. Cheers!

Hello

So i was on a14 beta 3 and it was a not a good experience. I then clean flashed the factory image with a full wipe to a13 beta 2.1. All was well until my phone got an update notice which i ignored. After a few days, i come to reboot my phone and suddenly i was on beta a14 3.1.

I lost root so i used pixel flasher to root again.

I tried using magisk stable but my banking app wouldnt work. I would click to open the app and it will instantly close. I have been living without now for 2 weeks but its limiting me alot. I need my banking app and now im thinking to go back to a13. I just today updated to a14 beta 3.2 which recently came out hoping maybe just maybe my banking app will start working but no go.

Now im thinking to flash the factory image of a13 latest june stable but im not sure if it can be done. Im thinking to download the full factory image of the latest a13 june final qpr3. will it be possible without loosing my data?
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] roirraW "edor" ehT:
Hi! There are several things to address here, so I'll take them one at a time.

If you haven't already by now, you should opt out of the Android 14 Beta program, otherwise you'll keep getting Android 14 Betas. At least, I would guess that you officially opted into it, which is why you got the OTA to it after you had manually downgraded. Your phone will definitely bet wiped if you're on the Beta and you opt out:

Android Beta Program

Android Beta Program allows you to enroll your Android device for beta releases.

www.google.com

It's possible for apps to merely detect that the bootloader is unlocked. It's impossible to hide that, however it's worth asking, are you using the latest Universal SafetyNet Fix Mod to v2.4.0 Mod 1.3 on XDA by Displax? Also wipe cache and data of the Play Store after installing that USNF Magisk Module. Do you have the banking app(s)' set to be in Magisk's DenyList, and also have you double-checked that all sub-entries of the apps you've put in the DenyList are enabled to be Denied? Sometimes apps add new sub-entries, which require being enabled to be denied, and may need a phone reboot to reflect.

Also, you've installed and followed these steps?

Install from the Play Store:

YASNAC - SafetyNet Checker

Launch it.

Click Run SafetyNet Attestation.

It should say:

Basic integrity: Pass

CTS profile match: Pass

Evaluation type: BASIC

Play Integrity API Checker

Launch it.

Click Check.

It should have the following with a green checkmark:

MEETS_DEVICE_INTEGRITY

MEETS_BASIC_INTEGRITY

It's normal for MEETS_STRONG_INTEGRITY to have a red X.

You don't have to keep these installed, although I keep them handy.

Note that sometimes it may take hours or a few days for apps to start passing integrity checks after implementing the root workarounds.

It's impossible to downgrade Android without wiping. Even if you found a way to downgrade without wiping, it's extremely likely that the phone would misbehave, or it might not even successfully boot.

Also, last note: If you opt out of the Android 14 Beta program, if you don't wait for the OTA which will downgrade (and wipe) your phone, and you manually flash Android 13 QPR3 Final, it's possible Google will still attempt to send you an OTA to the 14 Beta, before your opt-out takes proper effect.

Good luck!

It's June 19th I still haven't received the update for beta 3.1 😡
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] jhjhjhjhjhjh:
The O.P link has the 3.1 beta..

I had to sideload the ota zip .. No ota came in system settings..

3.1 is running smoothly...

Is anyone having horrible reception and wifi connections. I have to restart my p7p in order for it to grab a strong signal. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

WiFi is as usual for me but I am having trouble with 5G signals (totally gone) and data, specially VOIP calls. :(

Guess stuck with it until Aug

Hi, does anyone know how to enable clone apps?
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] roirraW "edor" ehT:
I found this information:

I don't know if that's accurate or up to date, though.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] anthonnyb98:
Thanks for your answer @roirraW "edor" ehT but I'm looking for the option to enable it via adb, I think it's possible.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] Aks:
I'm not sure about adb but I was able to enable it using AOSP mods (canary build). You can give it a try if you are rooted. Though it shows 0 cloned 0 available, it still works.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] anthonnyb98:
Thank you, I was able to enable it, are the clones created for you as if there was a work profile?
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] Aks:
Affirmative! Only difference from actual work profile is this doesn't have Play Store available. However, it does clone camera, Google drive, Feedback and Maps proactively.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] CurtisAndroid5:
Sorry to hijack!

My device (Latest beta with no root/magisk, only unlocked BL) doesn't pass the CTS profile match or device integrity and it's been around 3 days since I uninstalled Magisk/root access.

Any ideas why or what I can do about it? I'm meaning to patch with magisk again with the new fix mod once I can bring myself to possibly log back into any bank app that may break again 🤣

Don't suppose anyone is using the latest mod fix fine with Wallet, Starling, Santander, Barclays, AMEX, Chase and Lloyds too?

Thanks

Someone else also has the issue that in certain apps when you try to upload a photo or document the app crashes?
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] CurtisAndroid5:
Randomly yesterday evening my bank apps and wallet decided enough was enough and they kicked me off due to the root detection flag (Despite not having the device rooted as it was just a bootloader unlock!)

Ended up flashing the Magisk patch again this morning due to that (Nothing to lose eh) with latest Displax safetynet mod fix, passing the correct options on the checker apps and Play Store stays device is certified however Santander, Lloyds and Barclays all refuse to play ball - Any other solutions or can be chalk this down to bootloader flag?

Steps done in regards to hiding root etc;

- Flashed patched img with Magisk

- Finalized Magisk installation

- Rebooted

- Airplane mode

- Wiped Wallet/Play Store/Services data/cache + uninstalled problematic bank apps

- Flashed Universal Safetynet Displax mod

- Flashed Sensitive Props fix as mentioned above

- Restarted device

- Wiped Play/Services again for good measure

- Airplane mode disabled

- Reinstalled bank apps

Thanks

----

Update!

May have found a workaround by blacklisting some of the requests made when launching the problematic apps via Adaway - Both Lloyds and Santander are working now. Barclays however is being a pain in the arse.

Anyone else having an issue with Swift Backup not working properly?
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] 5.1:
Hi,

I restored my text messages and a few apps data with it. I didn't have any issues. Though it says A14 is not supported yet.

What is your problem?

Good luck,

Sébastien.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] motoridersd:
Yeah my mobile data on T-Mobile has been awful on Beta 3. Reception seems to be worse and often even with good signal mobile data doesn't connect. Stuck with a ! or performance is terrible in places where it's usually good. Even calls have been spotty.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] letmedanz:
Having trouble with Lsposed.

Won't open.

Notification says Lsposed loaded.

However tapping does nothing.

If i use the shortcut the i had from earlier, a bug report dialog pops up, that says

Bug reports contain data from the system's various log files, which may include data that you consider sensitive (such as app-usage and location data). Only share bug reports with people and apps that you trust.

(Not able to attach screenshot for some reason)

Magisk 26.1, Zygisk 1.8.6
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] Aks:
I had the same issue. I installed Lsposed from Play Store, made my changes and then uninstalled it. I'd say give it a try...
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] BIGWORM:
Just a bunch of random apps giving me the error that their files aren't found. I've tried pulling from Drive and restore directly from local storage, but the app refuses to see the files I've pulled. I'm unable to use roughly 80 percent of my apps from backup.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] 5.1:
Hey,

I haven't had any issue restoring from local backup (I don't use a cloud backup).

Did you try to backup one of your current applications on your device? Uninstall it and try to restore it?

Maybe your previous cloud backup is the problem? Since it doesn't work from cloud and doesn't work either downloaded on local storage, that's my best guess.

Do you have another device with an older Android version to try your cloud backup on it?

Did you contact Swift dev by the way? He may have a proper answer for you 👍

Hopefully, you'll get it sorted...

Sébastien.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] BIGWORM:
I unfortunately don't have an older Android device. I'm gonna try downloading the backup off of Drive again, and adb pushing this time instead of MTP transferring. Will report back.

*edit* Unfortunately no luck here. Was able to get all of the files pushed over successfully with no skips, restarted the app and phone, but the app still won't pick up the files. I'm gonna guess the files were corrupted or something being uploaded. =/
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] 5.1:
Hi,

Crap...

You could send a sample of a non personnal data filled app of your problematic backup to the dev. He can maybe see what went wrong here?

Cheers,

Sébastien.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] Ghisy:
Dumb question here: did you make sure you signed in with the correct Google account in Swift? I think the app signs the backup with some kind of private key tied to the Google account.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] jhjhjhjhjhjh:
Iphone user on XDA never seen this lol..

I had an iPhone eons ago like 2006... never ever will i give any closed source os my data.. Good luck on your decision...Android all day everyday...
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] dodgebizkit:
I like both systems - I use iPhone, MacBook, iPad, apple watch, pixel 7 pro, Samsung Tab, windows laptop, I love it all.

Because everything apple syncs so well I typically use all the apple stuff for personal and the android/windowd for work but I'm considering switching after the next big firmware update if Android wins in several key areas that make it really worth it.

There are great advantages with both and I love Android's better widgets and the Pixel specific features, but I also love iMessage and many perks of the iPhone.

We aren't 17 anymore and the whole sega Vs Nintendo on Android and iPhone is just silly to me, I could afford to use all of them and I enjoy all of them, I owe no company any loyalty, so why should I limit myself to one option? It's all good.

In a sandbox, I think Android phones are generally better (but only high end models) than iPhones, but iPads beat android tablets by a long way, and although I'm more familiar with windows so I use it for complex things like hacking games consoles, I by far enjoy using the MacBook more.

Your mileage may vary but if you can afford to live on the wild side, you should just enjoy everything you can techwise.

I also loved Windows Phone 7-10 while it existed. What an OS that was! If it had had more app dev support I'd have loved to have used it as my daily driver through to this day.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] BIGWORM:
Oh of course. I found a dirty work around by way of downloading the apps that wouldn't restore from the play store, then restoring just data from the cloud backup.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] 5.1:
Hi,

Nothing's dirty as long as it works 👍

I'm on the latest (according to google) of the 14 beta, UPB3.230519.014

at least that is what it says in the build number.

The "easter egg" still shows the 13 easter egg.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] jhjhjhjhjhjh:
Glad it wasn't just me who noticed but my easter egg is also a13 but on beta 3.1 ...014
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] CurtisAndroid5:
Been running latest beta for a little while now but noticed some super frustrating bugs with sharing pretty much everything leading to a crash of the app in the foreground and images not appearing in image selection/recent images until a reboot.

Nothing fully day ruining but definitely starting to be annoying!

Anyone had similar issues and has any possible fixes beyond waiting for public release 🤣
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] jhjhjhjhjhjh:
I sorta see were users claim the photos app was crashing and trying to share something was crashing..I've only noticed this once.

I flashed the ota beta zip manually after a factory reset and cleared cache data of the photos app and for over two weeks not one issue. This feels like a public beta im on..,3.1 ...014
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] jhjhjhjhjhjh:
We need a poll to see if root/bootloader unlock has any interference with beta builds.

Me being unrooted im not facing any issues..just a thought

..Like does the ota image has less bugs then the factory image..etc...
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] Lughnasadh:
Here's a potential fix for sharing until that bug gets fixed...

If the Android 14 Beta program killed your Pixel's share sheet, simply install this app

If you're having problems accessing a share sheet on your Pixel running the Android 14 Beta 3.1, this app will solve your issue.

[Google Pixel 7 Pro] letmedanz:
I've had to do a clean flash of A14 due to other issues that made it unusable after a dirty flash.

While I had the share issue after the dirty, I haven't seen it once after a clean flash. Screenshots, gallery, etc - everything works just fine
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] jhjhjhjhjhjh:
I believe a clean install is always the best way to install any new software. has been my rule of thumb since nexus 6 days..:)

btw im loving this phone..i cant keep my hands off it.. everything is buttery smooth.. the non root mods and using UAD to uninstall non used apps, disabling all background apps ,using sikuku apk and set edit 4 database apk has me with no reason to root.. Android 14 system as well as banking app developers are getting better at detecting root. .

I grew tired of workarounds for banking apps..lol
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] jhjhjhjhjhjh:
Even Dolby Atmos APK works on A14..Sounds with Bluetooth are incredible...even on high volume no distortion.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] CurtisAndroid5:

[Google Pixel 7 Pro] CurtisAndroid5:
Yeah it is. Working fine on my Bose in the bathroom!
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] dreigosh:
thank you , just tested it , it works but the volume drops somewhat
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] gpvecchi:

[Google Pixel 7 Pro] Aks:
I started facing a strange issue since yesterday. Every couple of hours, Google Wallet disappears. When I checked in Play Store, it shows app isn't compatible with your device anymore. it used to work properly until yesterday after I did a factory reset a month ago. Did anyone else notice this?
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] CurtisAndroid5:
Anyone able to find the 'Monochrome'/'Basic colors' option or is it not available on Beta 3.1 yet?

--

As we approach the next Beta update in the forthcoming week or two, just wondering how I'd update via OTA whilst maintaining root/magisk?

Could I just put my device to one side, not worry about disabling any modules etc then use PixelFlasher with the updated init_boot.img, patch that and flash via "Keep Data" mode?

A lot has changed since the days of CWM/TWRP!
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] gpvecchi:
I think it's not there anymore.

Yes to oem unlock a Carrier bought device the device must be paid off and then request an unlock which i did when I paid off the device.

I no longer have the oem not available on mobile locked devices..

Hope it's a 3 day wait to toggle oem unlock rule like Motorola devices..

Can you enable OEM unlock?

Not all

Carriers

Verizon, AT&T, etc., unlock the

when the phone is paid off. The usually Carrier unlock the phone when it is paid off.

Is there a flash all bat windows file already modified i can download? Edit I see I had to delete line 23 using notepad++ .

My question now is why do we have to flash the radio and img just to flash the init_boot.img?

I don't see the command in the bat file to flash the init_boot.img. The op says after you patch the init_,boot.img with magisk send in over back to the computer.. I'm lost there..

Do I replace the original unpatched init_boot.img with the patched one and rename then flash all bat??..i need a more detailed instructions..thanks..
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] roirraW "edor" ehT:
If you use the "Search this thread" button at the top of the thread and put 26.1, then you can see confirmation that 26.1 works fine with the Beta.

https://xdaforums.com/search/65077055/?q=26.1&t=post&c[thread]=4550933&o=relevance

There's no real way to judge which version is "best", as that's subjective, and the answer might differ, depending on the responding user's needs. I personally like to stick to Stable versions of everything unless I either have an issue with the Stable version, or I see some feature of a Beta or Canary version that I want to check out.

You're welcome! No, there isn't. Just edit the flash-all.bat that's in the firmware's zip file after you extract the whole thing, using Notepad, and save it, and simply remove the -w .

After I edit and save the file, I always close Notepad, and re-open the flash-all.bat in Notepad to verif;y that my changes were definitely saved.

Of course, some of those who have tried the Android 14 Betas have reported much better experience coming from a completely wiped phone rather than upgrading from Android 13, but it's up to you. You can always factory reset after if you have any issues.

Good luck!
