Basically want to know from users of ExistenZ ROM specifically? But anyone rooted there experience on this matter is kindly appreciated :good:

Are you successfully able to run your banking apps on the rooted custom ROM experience on our XZ?

Particular interest on UK banking apps if any users here.

Thanks in advance.

I'm itching to root and go custom just for the sanctity of my inner geek.

But I really do need your first hand experience with your banking app usability. Success or not?

Some banking apps e.g. Barclays (OKish) or DKB (refuse) make a fuss after root detection.
On Marshmallow I did overcome this via Xposed module "Rootcloak".

But generally I found these apps of the banks I am doing business with a royal PITA ergonomics and functionality wise.

On the "compromised" devices I use their normal web presence (not the castrated mobile view) to do what I want to.

Talking to customer service of one affected bank about why they block the apps when I happily can use the browser. They answered:
"We know. But root detection made it in the spec cheet for the programmers and our compliance guys can sleep better and we have already paid for that "funtionality" in the app. We do not actively recommend your "solution"."

Thanks.

I remember rootcloak from a while back but it didn't work for me back then.

On that note if your saying rootcloak does work then I'm gonna have to atleast wait until xposed becomes available for Nougat correct?
(If I want to specifically use Existanz ROM nougat and not marshmallow.)

Otherwise I will need to bite the bullet and resort to using website banking rather then through apps.

Cheers,
For information....swiss bank app doesnt work....waiting for xposed to update...

Cheers raffa
Thanks for that.

I would therefore assume UK banking apps will definitely not work. As they are extremely tight on there security especially with preventing users with root.
