eToken BCR - APP detects root and can't be used. PLS help - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I've been struggling for a while now with getting a Romanian internet banking app (eToken BCR) to work on my Samsung Galaxy J3(2016) running RR-OS 5.8.5 // Magisk 17.1
I tried using several apps to hide the root and to uninstall magisk / remove root.
Basically the app tells me it can't run on rotted devices. I can't use it with or without root since custom rom :/
I guess there is one file containing the root check but the problem is I'm not even close to understanding coding and how the app works, I have no programing knowledge.
Can someone help me bypass this check? Or recreate the app without the root warning?
Thank you.

Magisk mask can be used to hide root
Alternatively, Xposed module "Root cloak" may also be helpful
Try one of these

Instead of installing the app on phone
Try installing on parallel space, 2 accounts, Dual space etc.
These all apps are available on play store
Do tell me if it works

With latest Magisk (20.0) eToken doesn't detect root if you use Magisk Hide

I don't think so. You need to root it again, if your device is unrooted currently.

No, root access is global. You can however use Superuser or SuperSU to restrict root access to only one app, if you want.
Out of curiosity, why do you wish to unroot, yet retain root access with one specific app? What exactly are you trying to do? If you want to unroot because a certain application (such as banking/payment software) won't work if your phone is rooted, you can install the Xposed framework and use RootCloak on a per-app basis to trick the app into thinking you're not rooted.
Thanks you,:good:

This is good idea,
But i supposed (in Linux) if an App has Root access (777 permission) and Root Owner, the App is able to do any thing!
so what is wrong? what is different if an app has (root permission/root owner) or not?

Help with custom ROM detection (Fate go)

Hey there, I'm running resurrection remix m on lg g2 and apperantly a game called fate/go is detecting custom ROMs. (Its detecting any emus,root related stuff even dev settings & app modification) I keep getting root detection message even after removing root. Safetynet works fine stuff like pokemon works okay but it's detecting somehow. I've tried orion and cm so far and never got this working. Is there any chance to avoid this or find the way it detects me? Something like checking certificates. Thank you all in advance.
if it is detecting your root status then try hide my root app or if you want change permissions then install xprivacy which is a xposed module

Nope, I removed the root itself and safetynet is working fine. They prolly are checking custom roms in a way.

Remove root or make apps believe there is no root access

Hi there,
configuration: LG Nexus 4 ("mako") with lineage OS 14.1, root access
I have root access as it is very useful for many apps. Unfortunately, many banking and verfication apps do not work when root is installed. For some, google app store prevents installation, others cannot be used and a security warning is given.
Is there any chance to "pretend" root acess is not given, either to all apps or to some speficif apps?

You can try RootCloak. It is an Xposed module.

There are far too many files to make banking's apps flag and always ends in wasted time, it is far better to just use the banks main sites with a good browser.

Thats right, but I need the banking apps to generate TAN to verify the money transfer.

Thanky! That does not help. I tried different solutions.
I am now thinking about using dual boot. Otherwise I need to switch back to the normal rom.

Banking app on pixel experience rom

I am unable to run apps like "tez" , "bhim" on pixel experience rom installed in redmi note 3. Apps say that my phone is rooted but its not. I confirmed it by installing"root checker" app. My device is not rooted. is there any solution for this problem? is it because of permissive Selinux?

Install magisk 15.3 or whichever is latest and hide all the apps that don't require root in magisk hide, after that clear data of playstore and apps like tez etc. I used this method, it is working perfectly fine.
Hit thanks if a solution works. it will encourage us to answer queries.

I dont want to root my phone. Will magisk root my phone?
Easy & fast track method is just flash Magisk.zip and enjoy any app in any custom rom.
...but it will root your device!

Yes it will root your phone. But there won't be any root detection problems. I use snapchat, Tez etc on my phone

Is it safe to use banking apps on rooted device?
Yes it is safe to use banking apps on rooted device , if you're concerned about safety just don't install cracked apks or apps from outside other than playstore and use jio security or any such antivirus app
Simple method: you don't have to root the device. turn off play protect and find my device. You will get the OTP and you will be logged in. Then turn play protect and find my device on. (Tested only on Google pay. Don't know about BHIM).
May be because of unlocked bootloader

Restore Pocophone after Unlock and rooting

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.
