Any luck playingthe latest Pokemon go? - Redmi Note 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Bought this phone a while back for my wife. Everything is stock, but apparently Pokemon go detects root access and locks her out after the latest update. Is there any way to play this game on the redmi note 2? She has no use for root access anyway.

Try installing stable rom, because Developer rom has integrated root.

Will try that! Thanks!

This is the simplest solution and worked like a charm!! Thanks!
I'm glad I didn't have to install a different ROM and wipe everything clean. While I'm all in for testing out new ROMs and Kernels, my wife does not share my nerdy enthusiasm.

No issues at all after using it. However, kingroot will install its own superuser app and I have not been able to replace it with supersu (It should be possible with a custom recovery).
Root works fine without supersu but you could try following these instructions after you root if you want to get rid of king root: http://www.yomitech.com/2015/02/how-to-replace-kinguser-with-supersu.html
I got root failed with king root?!?! edit: I used kingo root and that worked. You know if xposed works on this tablet.

I forgot to mention that I did not allow the software update to run before I used king root. That could be the only difference between the 2 tablets. I won't try Xposed until we at least get a custom recovery

I hope there's some development for this tablet.
Have had mine since release and I love it I own a Nexus7 2013 and it is as fast as that one , it so far has handled all the emulator games I have thrown at it like a champ I have loaded N64 games and some NDS games I got and has played them great. Also I love the fact I was able to add a 64GB micro in for extra storage well worth the 199.00$ price tag!
Got rooted with KingRoot and later replaced with SuperSu
See here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=61168022&postcount=30
Didn't try Xposed yet, but should work under SuperSu
Give exposed a try and let us know if it works. Thanks
I used King root and it worked just fine...until my son used it and did an update. Now it is bricked. Here's hoping that it becomes popular enough to have its own forum and someone creates a decent ROM for it.
For the price it has good (enough) resolution, color and speed.
Have you tried holding power and volume up for about 10 seconds to get into recovery and do wipe/reset?
I did. I can get into recovery, did wipe and restored factory but nothing. It looks like the files created by kingroot were not compatible with the update.
BTW sent a PM

Thanks. I will.
I just got this tablet and it's pretty f'n sweet. I want to do my usual Root/ROM dance but I am not gonna touch it just yet. I am gonna wait until there's some real dev work (done by trusted devs) behind the solutions.

Bypass Android pay root detection?

So recently i was successful in rooting my device. Well i have heard of root cloak and i installed it from my xposed installer. Im currently running the Sky Dragon stock rom for 5.1.1. And even though I've installed root cloaker and activated and rebooted my device, i added the Android Pay app to the list. I then force closed or stopped the Android Pay app. So it gives me the error about it not being compatible so why or how is it still detecting my root? Is it cause the custom stock rom?

there's a post in p 11/12 of the CM13 thread where someone used a nexus 5x build.prop, unrooted, rebooted, added android pay, then. Re enabled root, and kept android pay functionality.
I did this too, and it worked for me. Even updated to latest nightly and kept functionality. Good luck.

Do a backup/ nandroid first. I screwed up when I first did this and it was a disaster trying to fix it.
1. download his attached build.prop.
2. Backup yours.
3. Replace your build.prop with his.
4. Disable root/unroot.
5. reboot.
6. Open android pay and add your cards.
7. Re-root/enable root, and enjoy.

Does the phone has to be on CM 13 or will it work on stock root?

if you're stock, I think you just need to disable/un root, set up android pay, then re root. Not positive though, been on cm since the day bump was released, and haven't looked back.

Well see im on a stock based rom called SkyDragon so will it work for that?
It might. Nandroid first, and please report back for anyone else who might be following this.
I have the sky Dragon rom with xsposed installed running the 5.1 or whatever their newest one is for. It didn't work

Pokemon Go - not compatible with my phone

Hi,
I dont think that my LG-G3(LG-D852) was rooted/unrooted correctly and I am not able to connect to pokemon go. My phone has been rooted for a while with no problems. Yesterday I attempted to unroot my phone and was left with a few problems. My play store was not connecting, my browser did were having DNS errors and my pokemon go was not connecting. I followed intsructions on editing the root/etc/hosts file and fixed two of my problems. Trying to log in to pokemon go gives me a message saying it is not compatible with my phone. I used Root Checker and it said "Sorry! Root access is not properly installed on this device". How can I unroot everything properly to get pokemon go to connect again?
Thank you!
The newest update of Pokemon Go basically banned anyone from playing if they have a rooted phone.
Here's a fix so that way you can still play while keeping your phone rooted:

Thanks for the suggestion. I would rather not re-root my phone and install/setup a root cloak unless I need to. Some comments from your link are saying that it does not work anyways.
I used "terminal emulator" and it said su is not found so I think that my phone is unrooted? Why does pokemon still think my phone is rooted?
You'll have to reload the original firmware.

I just finished trying Rootcloak and it didn't work. So now I'm looking for an alternative solution. I don't want to re-root my phone either.

I have CyanogenMod with a custom Rom and I am not using Magisk to turn on and off my root access every time I want to play the game. I'm pretty mad about this but I'm having a hard time finding a solution. Has anyone found anything useful?

1) The only reliable solution is to use Magisk.
2) Have you modified your system partition (installing Xposed or any other mods)?

Since CyanogenMod is a custom ROM, there won't be any support for it.

Is this as of 0.37.x? Because I and many others have had no issues with emulators prior to 0.37.x
When i said what about emulators - i meant, are there any emulators out there at the moment that are compatible with magisk?

No. They started to ban users that spoofing GPS and using emulator since days ago, then followed by blocking rooted (and system-modified) users from entering the game since 0.37.0.
Even if it's compatible with Magisk, you'll be banned because you're not using a real device to play.

[Q]Magisk support for S5??

Hey all, I've been having a lot of fun playing pokemon go but recently the newest version of the game has blocked users who have rooted phones, there's a hack called magisk that will allow the root to be toggled off while the game is being played and then back on when it is not. I am having no luck installing it though.
Has anyone else tried and succeeded to run this mod?
I'm running OL1 (5.1.1), stock rom.
Thanks!

I'm running it now. Although I've read that it can be done without doing a full Factory Reset, per the instructions, I wasn't able to make it work. There's a tutorial from Android Police that explains everything and provides links to the various files needed. Google search "magisk Pokemon go". You'll see the link. It's not too complicated of a process but make sure you have everything backed up.

I also have had no luck installing it. I have a sm-g900h on marshallow 6.0.1 and I've tried 5 times on doing it, but it still won't work. I've looked for a week for different drivers and archives to do it but I can't find any that work.
I'd really like help because I'm a total newbie in this and I don't know what to do or if I'm doing something wrong.

I don't know what I'm doing wrong because all that sounded pretty much like everything else. I've tried nearly every combination of flashing files, unrooting, leaving root. When I unroot I cannot boot to the OS, I was able to play the newer version when I unrooted but I don't think I'm going to do that. Guess I'll just play the old one as long as I can before the force the update and then maybe stop playing :-/

Yeah, I considered upgrading to Marshmallow because I've seen videos of it working for an S7 edge running Marshmallow and thought that Magisk may have had better support with 6.0. I really hope I don't need to get an S7 to get the game to work while rooted...The S5 is still a much better featured phone IMHO and I'm going to use it until it doesn't work anymore because it's so rock solid.
I already solved the problem I had installing it.
Turns out I was replacing the compatible version of super su that comes in the .zip without noticing.
It was all because I didn't read the instructions provided and let TWRP install the super su before rebooting.
I just didn't let TRWP install super su and it worked like a charm.

And this is on Marshmallow or Lollipop? I'm going to try updating to MM and then trying the magisk stuff again, maybe that's the key.

Cm13 to krexus?

Hey, me and my Mrs both have rn3p's and both have cm13. About a week after I flashed hers, the Pokemon go root ban came into play and now she wants a non rooted phone for that, her bank app and a work app. I was just wondering how I go about flashing krexus(non root I believe)? Is it just a matter of flashing it and it unroots it's self and does everything or is life less simple?
Hi,
I think that you can just unroot it while running CM13. In my opinion, it will be working fine without root on it.
Thanks.
