8 Ball Pool v5.12 Detects Root - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

What can I attempt to hide root from 8 Ball Pool
I know for certain because as soon as I remove root, the game works. The following is what I have done to Hide Root:
1. Configured Denylist within Magisk hiding root from 8 Pool, Google Play Store, Google Play Services, Carrier services, and Android System
2. Installed the Modules MagiskHidePropsConf and Universal Safety Net Fix and set to enforce Denylist
3. Installed the Module Shamiko (and disabled enforce Denylist)
4. Installed the module LSPoded and installed Hide-My-Applist -> Activated Hide-My-Applist in LSPosed and set a whitelist rule preventing 8 Ball pool from seeing all Apps
All of the aforementioned steps did not work. So, I tried the following:
5. Installed Magisk Delta
6. Used Island/Shelter to create a work environment and cloned the app as a work app. Did not work. Interestingly enough, my Banking apps stopped detecting root at this point.
7. Froze Magisk before opening 8 Ball Pool using various different freezing apps
8. Installed VMOS Pro (Virtual machine) to see if it would run there. Crashed Immediately no matter the version of android within the virtual machine (ensured root was disabled within the settings)
8 Ball pool still detects root.
NOTE:
I cleared 8 Ball pool app data everytime before I attempted to open it and did the same for Google Play Services and Google Play Store.
I ensured that the root detecting apps such as RootBeer and Applist Detector Passed.

Same issue, tried using gbox and gspace both didn't work as well. The game digs really deep into the system to still be able to detect root even after multiple magisk masgisk modules. All my banking apps work without any issues and all other games work as well.
The game still works on V5.11.2

Yeah it works on 5.11.2 but there are a lot more hackers there which is why I want to move to the next version

Any luck?

---

Still any update yet?

the game have been updated to 5.12.3 and still no answer to this question

Many cheaters that are using cheeto or similar hack since past 2-3 years will again start using them and ruin the game's experience for everyone.
So even if someone finds out a way to bypass the root check they won't share or I would say should not share.

You can fix the problem by switching to magisk alpha it's basically the same magisk but better

Can confirm this works, but I'm unable to login with both facebook or google play and am forced to use a guest account. New to this so I'm unsure if that's intentional?

I'm playing with my Facebook account. I wasn't able to open the game when I was using normal magisk but when I downloaded magisk alpha i can play it and I downloaded it from Google play. I think magisk alpha is much better at hiding even other apps that I couldn't open, now I can bypass their detection. And the cool thing is you can switch between the 2 magisk alpha and normal magisk by just pressing at the app you want to switch to. then pressing update then reboot without needing to flash using custom recovery.

I was talking about that 5.13 beta that was posted just above, it works but yeah, just logins are busted and I'm unsure if that's due to me having something in denylist or something unrelated.
Would also rather keep using the official magisk tbh.
