[Q] PNC Banking App Requesting SUPERUSER!? - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So I have the PNC smart access (for PNC's prepaid card) app and it requests SUPERUSER.. *gasp*
App here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.monitise.mmb.client.android.pncSmartAccess
I've done some tests and apk break downs and I've found out this.
1. Using root cloak on it will not allow me to login and will throw some error. (on a unsupported xposed lollipop device now so I can't show screenshots)
2. Yellow smiley app doesn't show any ACCESS_SUPERUSER modules in the apk. Wat? yet......
3. SuperSU has a record of PNC Smart Access of requesting superuser in its log. Speaking of SuperSU...
4. Denying it access will allow me to login but only after I have to send a email verification. EVERY TIME I WANT TO LOGON IT NEEDS TO VERIFY MY EMAIL.
5. I spoke to PNC tech support and they didn't know jack what I was talking about.....
6. I have not given the app superuser permissions so I can't see the effect of it being allowed.
Edit: it works fine. Giving in and allowing root
Maybe someone can look at the APK and solve this mystery??
I've SuperSU and Logcat logged with no joy /_<

Well first off don't mention lucky patcher. It is banned here. Next the link you posted is not showing up at it might only be available in some areas. Your best bet would be taking a logcat and then sending it to the app developer.
Many banking apps are made not to work if root is detected. And no the root cloakers don't work well.

@zelendel
Changed OP and removed screenshot 1 for offensive app. (my bad) (might want to change your post to remove all traces of it)
Changed play store link to correct one.
It works fine with superuser access but it makes me verify my email every time if deny access

[Q] Xposed + FF XIV Libra not working

Hello,
I own a HTC One_M8 with MaximusHD 4.0.0 (almost stock, rooted), completely S-OFF and previously a Desire HD also S-OFF with different ROM's (original Sense - AOKP).
I installed FINAL FANTASY XIV LIBRA EORZEA. This App is working fine til now.
Second i installed Xposed Framework and rebooted. FF XIV App is still working at this moment.
Then i downloaded some Modules and rebooted again. FF XIV App is force closing all the time without any Error message; half a second later, when i launch it.
I found that the type of the Module is irrelevant. Doesnt matter what Module is active. But as soon i activate any Module, Final Fantasy App keeps force closing without any error message. Its on both of my devices the exact same.
Any ideas what exactly causes this? Or how i can solve it? Workaround? (Really dont wanna miss Xposted)
App wants to Access a local database or something. Maybe this helps a bit...

Hey all. Can anyone elaborate on the prior post about XPrivacy being able to help run Libra Eorzea? I'm having the same issue, and no matter what I do with XPrivacy, I just can't get it to work.
I could never get XPrivacy to work the way it was described here, but I did find a workaround.
Using Titanium Backup Pro, convert everything related to Xposed and it's modules to system apps. This basically hides Xposed and anything associated with it from anything Square-Enix, whose app coding conflicts with Xposed.
Works 100%. Glad to be able to use both together now.
I got this info from another post on another site and take no credit for it. Just passing it on. ^^

Nice! Thank you, johnequickii. Working like a charm.

[APP][XPOSED] Kapuer : Information and assistance to protect your privacy !

What is Kapuer ?
Not yet just another permission management application ! Kapuer is way more than that. It is a recommender system that helps you deal with the difficulties to protect your privacy from all your apps.
How does it work ?
Each time one of your app wants to use some of your private data, Kapuer first informs you of that request, gives you details on concerned permission and asks you if you want to allow or deny this request.
Your decision allow Kapuer to understand how you want to protect your privacy. Then, after some requests, Kapuer will propose you an higher level rule to manage a whole set of permissions or a whole set of application. Suppose you always deny games to access the Internet because you play only solo games. After few interactions with Kapuer, it will understand that you don't want to let games access the Internet and it will propose you a rule to deny all upcoming requests from games to access the Internet.
Kapuer is the result of a PhD and is still at its early ages. Updates and improvements will come. This implementation of Kapuer has been build with Xposed.
Even if Kapuer is and will stay free for public, it is not open source. We still plan on a possible commercial use of the decision support system behind Kapuer but privacy is important for us and we wanted to share Kapuer with everybody. We do not use information about you or your data, everything stay and will forever stay on your device.
Kapuer hasn't been tested for the moment with Xposed for Android 5.xx
How can I test it ?
Kapuer is still in beta and lots of updates will come.
You can find more information on Kapuer and download it at : http://kapuer.org/en/index.html

Report any findings here in this thread. So we can all see if they're individual bugs striking a certain user or universal bug happening to all users.
Successful odin flash, nothing went wrong, watch was rooted and now it's not rooted again, but I couldn't try sideloading any apk's @Skin1980 requested cause Opera Mini wouldn't load the page correctly.

Whoops at my silly newb ass sideloading his preselected apk's from phone to gear fails rn...
Open Invitation to Any Other Gear S T-Mobile Users
See if you can get Skin1980's app's to load, this is based off of OA7 Firmware install as you'd normally install any odin firmware.
Maybe someone in here can help me he needs a app that was installed with Gear Manager and Galaxy App Store, I can't find where those app's are located since they don't show up in the app drawer or app manager on my phone, he needs a pulled one so I can he can compare the installs and see why sideloading apk's are failig rn with unknown sources allowed in Gear Manager, would Gear Tasks work or if anyone has a pulled app from the app store they could upload and send to him that would be great.

Can't make a user app an system app. Link2SD/LuckyPatcher/TWRP storage error.

Hi guys and gals
I'm in need of some help guys. The solluction will probably be easy enough, however probably due to needing to translate the errors (dutch <-> english) I can't really find anything to help me...
The phone:
LG Nexus 5 24Gb and android 5.1.0 (LMY47D).
The goal:
Have a fake GPS app installed and hiding my root to spoof my location on android 5.1 with a security patch before the march 2017 patch (in compliance with this spoofing guide.
For this I need to do the following:
Unlock my phone
[*]Install TWRP
[*]Root
[*]Install fake GPS app ['GPS JoyStick Fake GPS Location' by The App Ninjas]
[*]Generate and rename a copy/privacymode of the app
Make the renamed copy/privacymode a system app (stuck on this step)
Instal Magisk (didn't get to this step)
Hide root with Magisk (didn't get to this step)
The errors:
I used Nexus Root Toolkit to install the androidversion 5.1 on my phone. The Hashcheck failed so I skipped it. Not sure if that's what's causing the error. For the installing of TWRP and Root is used: this guide from XDA. I installed the fake GPS app and made a renamed privacy/copy. Here comes the problem. I can't make that (or the original) a system app. I tried using Link2SD, luckypatcher and directly moving in TWRP. I get the following errors (note the screenshots are of trying to install the renamed privacymode/copy):
The screenshots:

My guess is that the programs can't access the storagespace on my phone for some reason.
The question:
Who can help me to get passed the 6th (and following) steps to achieve my goal with this phone? Please let me know if any more info is needed.
Ofcourse any and all help is greatly appreciated!
EDIT: Sorry guys, not sure why the images don't show up...

Alter the IR database to send other codes to the TV - Need help

Hey there.
I have since a few days the new ShieldTV remote with IR function and netflix button. Since yesterday I try to change the NvIRTuner.apk (com.nvidia.irtuner) or its database or the IR calls. Unfortunately without success so far.
The database is built very interesting. I'm talking about the O1R_UPDATE_19NOV20.sqlite here.
In the table M_Codes you can find all IR codes. Before the corresponding Java class determines the device which one has selected in the IR-AV-Toogle menu. In my case a LG TV with the id 1970. This Id can be seen in the setup.

Here a Logcat excerpt, if I press my menu button to trigger the HDMI toggle:
07-11 13:37:30.050 4415 4601 D ShieldBluetoothIRInterface: *****REPORT*****0 - Pastebin.com
Pastebin.com is the number one paste tool since 2002. Pastebin is a website where you can store text online for a set period of time.
pastebin.com
Good to see the actual IR_Code that is taken, or its alias:
INPUT SCROLL
What I have tried so far:​-I replaced all IR codes in O1R_UPDATE_19NOV20.sqlite with Channel_UP and then moved this db to /data/data/com.nvidia.irtuner/databases with su-rights.
-> Unfortunately the system app com.nvidia.irtuner seems to read the db inital only once. I can't get it to read my db. I don't understand why. No matter if I reset the app, replaced the O1R_UPDATE_19NOV20.sqlite and give appropriate chown and chmod rights or reset the app before.
-My second attempt was a modified APK. Unfortunately, this can not be installed, because it must be signed by nvidia. I have root, but I don't know what to change in the /system/packages.xml so that the system would accept the app.
->When I try to install it, I only get the message that you have to sign this apk appropriately for the user.
-Then I tried to reproduce the service call from the logcat but unfortunately I don't know what to do.
Does anyone have a tip for me?
Greetings by Idijt
