Hello, anyone know or can even think of an option on how to bypass this mechanism when i install an app?
also if it only work on older version
also how to install third party apps without the user to manually allow it?
think about it as wild as possible, even running code in root.
Any kind of knowledge on this topic will help.

Hello!
I have some basic questions about the security of rooted android devices. I'm running Cyanogenmod 11 actually on my SGS3. Of course I rooted it to install custom Recovery and ROM. So is there any possibility for an App to get Root Access without recognition?
I dont need the Root access anymore, I only wanted to install Cyanogenmod and thats it. What to do to fully unroot Cyanogen?
Another question:
If i have enabled "only install from trusted sources" am I safe? Or could there be sort of drive-by-downloads for example on this site sometimes i get the pop-up "your phone has (13) viruses, click ok ...".
Yeah thats it, I'm a little bit paranoid especially according to my passwords, are they safe!?
Thanks a lot and Greets from Germany!

You can't be unrooted and have CyanogenMod installed; that's an oxymoron. You can, of course, be unrooted without CM installed, but you can't have 'em both.

You're safe even without "only install from trusted sources" turned on. Just make sure not to install anything at all that you didn't specifically tell your device to install.

Unless you have an actual trojan or virus installed on your phone, your passwords are perfectly safe.
To check and make sure you're secure, download and install the avast! Mobile Security & Antivirus app from Google Play, and run a device scan.
Is there any possibility for getting installed without recognizing?
Can an app get Root permissions without giving them?

If you're not already, you need to use a Super User app like SuperSU (the best one). It allows you to grant/deniy apps root access. If it asks to grant/deny permission to an app that you didn't install or isn't a function of CM, or simply don't want to grant root access, then deny it permission.
EDIT: As Nookie said, you can't accidentally install something even if you allow installations of apps that aren't from "trusted sources". If you do install apps from non "trusted sources", just be smart about it.
I have kenzo cyanogen ROM installed (13.0-20160617 unofficial kenzo) I have used Lloyds banking app for a long time but tonight it tells me I can't log in as using a rooted or jail broken device. I haven't updated the app for a while or ran any other updates.
Is this room rooted by default? As I didn't think it was and I didn't think I had root.
Is there a way to fix it so I can use my banking app again?
It has a root option which you can enable. I can suggest trying root cloak but that also means you'll have to install xposed. Make sure root is turned off in dev settings and clear the cache/data of the banking app before trying root cloak. Otherwise you may have to settle for their website.
Root is off in the developer options. I wonder if the banking app can see the ROM or something else is not stock? Its frustrating as it was the reason I didn't root my phonephone/want it rooted.
I noticed that even installing an older version of the app I get same error so maybe something else has changed . if a system app has somehow updated and caused this? I am still on the original ROM from june. I haven't installed nightlies.
Either that or my account has somehow been flagged so even old app versions dont work(deleted data and folders etc from the app first.)
regarding ths problem - Im guessing its not looking at root as this is disabled, but it can see either an unsupported rom, or something else. Can i flash a different rom (prefereably not Miui) and regain the banking app? a rom that would be classes as supported?
I want to be very clear that I have no problem paying for apps, supporting developers and that sort of thing. I recently installs VMOS to spoof my location in an app.. a dating app that is free, and also for free the app allows you to browse users in other parts of the world.
However I wondered if I could do the same thing with Tinder.
The issue I've ran into is I cannot get Tinder to install within VMOS.
So my main/actual phone is a Samsung Galaxy Note 10 + running android 9.
And the fake/vmos is 1.0.49
I uninstalled tinder on my main phone, went to google and found a website where I could download tinder 11.6.0 apk… but I needed something called SAI (split apk installer)
So I downloaded the apk, then opened the files within SAI and tinder installed and works without a problem....
However when I go to my fake phone and download the same files from the same sources tinder does not install and gives an error pretty much saying "failed to install- app not installed- Application is incompatible with this device"
I am obviously not sure what the exact reason is which is why I'm here.
When I tell it I want more details as to why it did not install I get "java.lang.Exception: application is incompatible with this device at com.aefyr.sai.installer2.impl.rootless.RootlessSaiPiBroadcastReceiver.onReceive(RootlessSaiPiBroadcastReceiver.java:57)
at android.app.LoadedApk$ReceiverDispatcher
$Args.run(LoadedApk.java:908)

android.os.Handler.handleCallback(Handler.java:739) at android.os.Handler.dispatchMessage(Handler.java:95)
at android.os.Looper.loop(Looper.java:135)
at android .os.HandlerThread.run(HandlerThread.java:61)
Obviously that doesn't really tell me anything in particular.. because I don't have much programming/script knowledge.
But it makes me feel there are protections in place to keep people from doing what I'm trying to do.
So if anyone is willing to help that would be awesome!
I'm unable to get the app to install via the play store.. because it doesn't even show up there by searching directly.
But when I follow a link to bring up the app within the play store it just pretty much says it's not compatible.
So is it because of protections being in place... something wrong with my vmos environment or what?
When I tried installing it on fake phone I had root turned off along with developer options also turned off.
I had install apps from unknown sources turned on.
I'm not sure what other info to provide...
I can get the same apk to work on the real phone and install..
Just unable to get it to install on vmos.
I tried File Transportation in vmos and that didn't work either... it times out or whatever.
So in general... whether it be tinder or whatever app.. how do you get something to install when play store says incompatible and file trapsportation does not work?
Maybe the apk file I have is in fact incompatible with something within vmos??
I tried some stuff within xxxxx but was still unable to get the app I mentioned earlier to install. Not really sure what needs modified/patched or whatever.
any ideas please? how does someone get an app to install within vmos that doesn't seem to want to?
Working

What I usually do is use the root permissions in vmos to force install the apk as a system app through lucky patcher. Before doing this I would reccomend making sure that the version you are using is compatible with the vmos android os version you are running before attempting and that the package isn't considered corrupted. Also please note that when installing an apk as a system app it becomes difficult to uninstall. If you'd want to remove the icon then you would need to disable the package also through lucky patcher. I'm just throwing the idea out there and I'm not sure this solution would work for any other so hopefully it'd work for you.
Has anyone had any luck getting vmos running on an android 9 device??
If so pls let me know so I don't waste too much time trying I tried the standard one and it didn't work so I'm downloading the pro version which will take a long time
Hi
Is there a way to disable installing apps (that if you try to install an APK it won't work)?
Thanks
Just found this on a other fourm can someone explain this to me
"Yes, remove the permission to install package to the target user by making the account a managed account, or hook system to intercept installation window and ask for a password or outright kill it. (What you are looking to intercept is probably com.android.packageinstaller.PackageInstallerActivity). Going to intercept route means you may need to block app stores the same way as they can bypass this if installed on system partition. It will still be possible to install over ADB or recovery if left unprotected."
Thanks
Apparently, my bank updated the app with a new feature that doesn't let me access it anymore, it says that the operating system is not supported, i use a custom rom(AEX) in my Redmi 4x, i believe that the rom is the problem, the root is being hidden with MagiskHide and i have no problems with SafetyNet, maybe i can change some parameter in build.prop to make it work? i did something similar to try to run Fortnite in my phone a while ago, any ideas on what parameters may be relevant to that?
It's a brazilian bank(Banco Inter)
Need Solution for this Problem as Well
I have the same problem.
The new app version 8.4.6 is not working while up till version 8.4.5 it was working just fine.
Their support is absolutely clueless on how to help, but as @Levyks said, apparently they are blocking custom roms now.
Is it possible to make the custom rom look as an original rom from manufacturer?
Same problem.
I'm with the same problem...
IMHO has nothing to do with fact whether it's a Custom ROM or a Stock ROM. Any app ( banking apps included ) easily can find out whether present Android OS got tampered or not.
Same problem any help? Can't use my bank app... WhatsApp also can detect I have a custom ROM, any solution?

Many apps like banking / payment apps today detect whether Android is got rooted or not: it's an easy for them to do so.
Same problem here in Lineage OS 18.1. My non-rooted device pass safetynet and CTS by default. But many Banking application had started detecting that I am using custom rom and don't open at all. Then I rooted my device with magisk and enabled 'magisk hide' but no success.
Hi! A solution that worked for me: use the renaming function in Magisk (you can find it in the Settings).
I had the same problem on a Redmi 4X, LOS 16, no working banking app even with Magisk hide. After renaming Magisk, I was able to log in and use it as intended. Also I left Magisk hide turned on.
My guess is that these kind of apps are looking specially for Magisk, and if it's detected, they just won't let you use them.
