On my gnex I easily changed super user apps. I don't know if it's because I'm still on a TW rom or the way the device is exploited it's not able to or a different process to change the app? Everyone uses supersu by chainfire but I would like to change it to superuser by clockworkmod. I've tried the uninstall for changing apps but I just lose root access.

Keep supersu installed, download superuser app of choice, update binaries of said app, then uninstall supersu. Worked for me.
Is it possible to prevent an app from reading the phone's root status? Can lucky patcher or something similar help?

Lucky Patcher is forbidden to be discussed here given what most people use it for.
I'm not aware of anything that will hide root on a per app basis, you can only 'hide' it on a system-wide basis in SuperSu (uncheck Enable Superuser in settings), run the app you want to run, then unhide root (recheck Enable Superuser in settings; you may need to reboot to re-enable root).
This will work for some apps, but it depends on what the app actually checks for when it checks for root. If it only queries if SuperSu/similar is enabled, then that will solve your problem.
There's actually two ways to do this that I know of, there's an Xposed module, Root Cloak which will hide root on a per-app basis. There's also Root Cloak Plus on Play Store which requires Cydia Substrate to run (both apps/methods are called the same thing but are different apps/methods of hiding root). I've never used either of them, but I know a lot of people have success with the Xposed version, Root cloak.
Short story, install Xposed framework if you haven't already, and then install the Root Cloak module from XDA and see if it works for you.
Good info Hopper
Tried the first method by disabling root in super su, that did work. And a reboot later, root was back. But once you disable root, it's so for all apps. I'm going to try the xposed module now. Thanks a lot for the info.

Hi, So I recently ran into the problem of not being able to use certain apps such as Snapchat and banking apps while having Xposed Framework installed even if I do not try to modify that application. This problem has forced me to stop using Xposed. So I was wondering, if there was anyway to cloak Xposed. Don't suggest things like root cloak because the apps check for Xposed not for root. Thank you
There are none that i know of. But you can use systemless xposed and toggle it off from Xposed Installer when using apps that detect it. That's currently the only simplest method.
Hello, I just flashed a ROM that allowed me to utilize Magisk but it's very new to me. Is there a way to hide root with Magisk from certain apps that block rooted phones? I have Xposed installed but RootCloak doesn't seem to work, I tried checking Hide Magisk in the settings but no luck. I'm trying to use Vudu's disc to digital option, which seems to kick an error when root's detected. I got around this with RootCloak on my last ROM, I'm hoping there's an alternative. Thanks in advance.
Magisk hide should work for banking apps now. Please update and see.

Uninstall Xposed first, then update Magisk.
Safetynet detects Xposed, that's why you won't be able to use banking apps when Xposed is installed.
HIT THANKS IF FOUND USEFUL
Hey mates
I recently rooted my pocophone and before I did that I did a "adb backup –all –f c:\backup.ab"
That worked fine, but now i have some Apps not working which I really need. Mainly a banking app.
So im considering going back to unroot the device.
What would be the correct way to do that? Use Xiaomi Flash Tool and then do the restore or can I do the restore just now?
Also is there a way to backup some apps like google authenticator?
Thanks for the help!

thats exactly what it does
Just to post my solution here...I tried using magisk hide which sadly didn't help.
But finally I solve it with the app Island in Google Play Store (Can't post links yet)
I've also flashed the custom rom Pixel Experience
Thx for your Help!

Yes It Will But If It's Still Doesn't Work Then Hide Magisk Manager (By Hiding It Will Repackage The App With An Random Name So Banking And Other Apps Doesn't Detects Root Access) And Re-Install The App Or Clear The App Data (You Doesn't Need To Clear Data/Uninstall And Install The App This Is Just To Make Sure That The App Doesn't Detect Root Access Even When Root Access Hided Apps Like Fortnite Detects Root Access After Hided So You'll Need To Uninstall/Clear App Data)

Can you please stop using caps for the first letter of every word? Makes reading and understanding difficult.

Simply go to Settings in Magisk Manager, the option to hide is the fourth from the top. Then uninstall and reinstall the app which is giving you trouble (HSBC app).

No. What you are talking about is Magisk Hide in Settings. What I was talking about was Hide Magisk Manager, the fourth option in Settings. This hides Magisk Manager itself by renaming it. You simply click it and you will get a popup saying that the Magisk Manager was renamed as xxxx. Try it.
