I tried and it didn't pass Safetynet, something wrong with ctsprofile:false thus I couldn't use Google Pay and other features.

Relocked my bootloader to back to and I lost the lastest update .151 and eRecovery downloaded and installed .130... that sucks

If anyone who got their phone root and passes safetynet, let me know how you did it...

Never had a problem with safetynet. I'm currently on latest magisk 16.7 beta and no problems whatsoever. Running B152C432.

Unlock bootloader (hope you still got your code)
Flash Unofficial twrp
Flash magisk 16.7 via twrp or via magisk manager.

That's it.

.151 hasnt certified by google. Thats the issue. Try to root on .150 or .131 that should be fine

I still have my unlock code.. I have it backed up on google drive, my pc and Imgur.. haha

That might be why I wasnt able to get it to work. Wish I saw this post before I reverted back to .130
I might try again over the weekend.

Changing fingerprint might help as well
After unlocking bootloader, fingerprints and passsodes are erased as it starts from fresh start.


Thanks all for your input.

Its not that fingerprint, LoL

What he means is device fingerprint (more like identifier line), which responsible for cTS profile matching, (confusing, i know)

There's a magisk module for that, allowing you to change device fingerprint to other model (example, samsung or pixel) which can pass safetynet check.

I tried that though on .151, i change it to older P20 pro fingerprint, didnt work.

.152 fixes playstore not certified I had with .151 also.
In the end if firmware is not certified to flash on FF it means something.
Good to know all this stuff

yeah uhm so I'm on L29 .152, Magisk Manager, TWRP Flash

at the time I don't have a Custom ROM because ROMAur is dead (no support) and LineageOS isn't mine cause I ain't enjoying it that much.. [emoji16]

Q: Any new ROM's beside ROMAur / LineageOS for .152 L29?

Sent from my CLT-L29 C432
