Possible Fix for Pokemon Go? - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

The latest Pokemon Go update has blocked access for rooted users
In searching for a root fix, other than rerooting with the Magisk method, I discovered a solution that uses RootCloak and This App to get around a block put in place by a previous app for a Nintendo game that was blocked. I know the issues are probably different. I already used to RootCloak to block Pokekemon Go from seeing root, but no success. I'm tagging developers involved in the previous app to get their thoughts. Azbulldog ChrisJosten.

Hi,
i have got an idea how it could probably work, but my programming skills and knowledge are too low to try it. The idea is the following:
With any kind of "minimal virtual machine" for just one app, which connects to GPS/WIFI/... from the real device, with faking OS version, root and so on (but takes REAL!! values for position for example). This idea would be very special for Pokemon Go and i think there would be just 1 problem: even if it works, this vm-app would maybe count as "emulator" which niantic not allows.
Would be nice to get any answer like "good idea" or "will never work" or something like that
If you like this idea, feel free to try to create such an vm-app for Pokemon Go
€dit: another idea, but most likely forbidden by Niantic: reverse engineering of the .apk and delete the SafetyNet check (I think this would could as modified client...)

Good Morning,
i found at random something interesting: http://repo.xposed.info/module/com.pyler.nodevicecheck
Since i do not have xposed installed atm on my GT-I9505 (CM13), is there any chance to ask for some1 else may try this? @KoolCharisma, i am interpreting your first post as "i use xposed", could you maybe try it?
And if it works for you, would you please add some information about your device? Especially Firmware and Xposed versions.
Thanks

Natwest App

I'm currently using the latest MiniCM7 on my X10 mini.
The one app I'm really missing is the official Natwest App. It doesn't appear in the market on my phone and if I look it up on the android market on my computer then I am told it is incompatible. I'm just curious as to whether people on other ROMS are able to download it? Maybe I could modify something to make it compatible.
Apparently a lot of people have had similar problems, trying to run a UK banking app on anything other than a stock ROM.
I had a quick Google hunt about this and quite a few people suggest using the app, Bank Control, which apparently works with Natwest as well as some other banks. Some have talked about editing the phone's build.prop as well.
Not much help, I know, but hopefully this may be useful to you.
I've been reluctant to try Bank Control as its not officially supported by Natwest. I've finally given it a go and now can't register with it for some reason.
I'm interested in modifying the build.prop. People seem to have had success on other phones by editing the ro.build.fingerprint. Could somebody post that line from a stock X10 mini so I could give it a go? Or could I use the ro.build.fingerprint from a different phone without it affecting anything?
Well, I could..but it might be easier if I just gave you the whole thing and you can pick the bits you need..
I've had to zip it because .prop files can't be attached here.
Worked like an absolute charm, thanks a lot!
In case anyone searches for this I changed the ro.build.fingerprint line to
Code:
ro.build.fingerprint=SEMC/U20i_1238-7173/U20i/delta:2.1-update1/2.1.1.A.0.6/-X_d:user/release-keys
Didn't have to change anything else.
No problem, I'm glad it worked out.

A way to check if any app has exploited 'Exynos Mem Bug'

First, I just finished reading 50 pages of Chainfire's thread and my eyes have had it. So I have tried to find the answer myself. I'm also posting it here as the hacking thread says "no noobs" so if this isn't the place, please move it for me.
I simply want to know, in lieu of the fact that a lot of apps got updated like crazy after this bug was discovered, I'm thinking that these fixes might be a waste of time for a lot of us as we may have been comprimised already and simply checking SuperSU won't help (apparently).
So my question is, is there a way to 'scan' to see if any app is using the exploit? If not what can be done? ie. remove all apps and reset phone and leave it bare, and change all email passwords etc, until Samsung fixes this huge problem?
Thanks
perhaps some antivirus apps will check this vulnerability soon

You misunderstood, I already know I'm affected. I'm looking for a way to see if any playstore apps have taken advantage of the exploit. I already have Chainfire's fix installed. I'm worried that somebody has already used the expoit. All my apps are from playstore but that doesn't convince me that all playstore devs are "ok". So I want to know if there's a way to see if any app I had already installed before I installed Chainfire's fix is/was taking advantage of the exploit.
Thanks

Root a HTC One to gps spoof

Hi there, I'm new to rooting but want to give it a try on my old HTC One phone with Android 5.0.2
Reason I want to root the phone is quite silly, and perhaps dumb.
I simply want to GPS spoof on Pokemon GO as there are nothing in my area of interest.
I know Pokemon GO is about going out etc. but this is just something that motivated me to try to root my first phone.
So I am wondering which root I should pick to root my phone, and later on be able to GPS spoof and make the Pokemon GO app think I'm somewhere else, without the app noticing I'm GPS spoofing, and also hiding the fact that the phone has been jailbreaken from the app.
Thank you so much in advance.

[Lucky Patcher] How to use LP for offline apps??

Hey guys, I've been looking around on how to use this app for a while now, but haven't exactly found anything detailed and applicable. All I know is I need it activated as an Xposed module and that it works only on offline apps.
Right now, I'm trying it on this game called Implosion(but haven't been successful), and I want to learn to use it on other apps as well. So I hope someone can help me out with this.

Modding an APK?

Hi guys! :victory:
I'm new around here, nice to meet you all. This is my first post and I wasn't exactly sure where to ask this so feel free to point me in the right direction if you have a better place.
I'm sure this question has been asked time and time again, so I understand if this comes off as annoying or redundant, but I need some serious help here.
I'd like to start off by saying that I have no knowledge of Android development further than installing ROMs and working with Xposed framework, so please bear with me here.
I need to disguise an app. I have an APK file, and I would like to change the name and the icon, and if possible, somehow lock it. I tried using Hide it Pro, but it refused to actually lock the app. I need this done ASAP, and I'm willing to do all the research and work on my own, I just need pointed in the right direction. I made it so far as changing the icon and name using an APK editor, however I could not log into the app afterwards, and the icon changed itself back to the original.
Any ideas?
Thanks!
-Ryder
Quick edit here: This APK isn't for me, it is for my boyfriend, so I would need to test it and send it to him, and see if it works on his side.
