Comdirect photoTAN app detecting root

Search This thread
Can you go into more details about that process? What is it called and where can I find it to select it for magisk hide? Ty!
I think they renamed the isolated process.
After updating to 8.4.0 there are still 3 processes in MagiskHide for photoTAN:
com.comdirect.phototan
com.comdirect.photot.......activity
(isolated) com.comdirect.phototan:yy.[X]

The last one had a different name before and therefore I had to activate this again. ( btw. [x] should be a character that can't be displayed ).
Clearing cache was not needed for me because I did this before opening the app.

Warning for all.
Dont update to the last Canary from Magisk, magiskhide was removed.
Oh no, I just updated!
Where can I get the last version that has MagiskHide?

Edit: I found version 23001, but flashing it does not help, no root aftwards. Using the alpha version with denyList also does not work, the denyList option won't stay enabled.

Take unroot tool of magisk and flash unroot. Boot twrp and perhaps you'll have to delete the folders data/adb and adbroot manually. install 23 zip again. Reboot, It should work

Thank you so much. I had to flash 23011 first to fully enable Magisk again and be able to fully uninstall it. After that I only had to flash 23001 via TWRP. Now MagiskHide is back.
PhotoTAN is now working even without Riru installed and without passing SafetyNet, seems like MagiskHide is the only requirement, at least on my phone.

I have a custom Android 12 ROM (OnePlus 7 Pro). Hence I guess Magisk NoHide is the only option to have root access? Any solution available in order to run Comdirect photo TAN app in a rooted Android 12 ROM?

It should be fine a while longer to root and hide. Don't update magisk, change update url to a non existing url and you don't get annoying update messages.

The steps described from edwardenglish worked for me:
- Lineage 17.1 with Android 10
- comdirect photoTAN App 8.4.2
- Without Riru it did not work
- All data of the photoTAN app had to be deleted and the registration had to be made again

    To my experience a deletion of any phototan related data is not needed. If one can get rid of the root cause, the app continues to work.

    You might have a look to the path /system, especially /system/addon.d . If you find this directory on your phone, and is contains a file with "magisk" in its name, you should change the permissions of addon.d to 700 (chmod 700 /system/addon.d), so that the phototan app is not longer able to find the file.

    Thanks, it worked with com.comdirect.phototan version 8.13.0 (deleted cache and storage)
    LOS 19
    magisk (hide app, deny list) 27.0
    shelter (net.typeblog.shelter) 1.9.1

    done it with nextapp.fx version 9.0.1.2 # System (root) > system > menu Mount Read-Write > select addon.d > menu Security > change to only root with rwx (700) > menu mount read-only

    I am prepared to upgrade to LOS 20 now....

    Since version 8.3.0 additional measures to detect root have been added, do not update as MagiskHide won't be able to prevent detection. Until a solution is found I would recommend staying on the previous version for as long as possible.

    Finding out what exactly is causing the root detection is beyond my technical abilities but I would provide as much information needed to those willing to help.

    Update: December 14th 2021 - Method no longer sufficient

    The solution found by @pxrave appears to be working:


    Hey fellas I got it working and others apps detect magisk before.

    Update to latest v23
    Install modules riru and riru unshare
    Remove data from tan app
    Go to magisk hide and tick all process to hide included the isolated
    Start the tan app and do the activation again.

    Problem you need wait 2 days to activate because comdirect use new activation process for photo tan app.

    Working fine all version 8.3


    Link to the Riru Unshare module:
    11
    1. deinstall old magisk-app
    2. install canary.apk
    https://raw.githubusercontent.com/topjohnwu/magisk-files/canary/app-debug.apk
    2.1 install safenet-fix modul
    https://github.com/kdrag0n/safetynet-fix/releases/download/v2.2.1/safetynet-fix-v2.2.1.zip
    (will not be active until you finished step 3.)
    3. repatch boot.rom with "install" & "direct" (installieren & direkte installation)
    4. after that reboot, etc... it should look sth like this
    1.jpg

    5. go to settings (red arrow)
    6. hide app (2.), enable zygisk (if not allready running) 3, enable deny-list (4), config deny-list (5)
    2.jpg

    7. enable all 3 processes
    3.jpg

    8. add other apps you may need in deny-list... like google pay & google play services

    during the hole process you may have to reboot your phone

    To get rid of the Airplane mode (or toggling data off/on) I figured how to block the connection to the upgrade service right on the phone. The requests go to 'api.comdirect.de'.

    Use blacklist in TrackerControl
    -> Settings / Advanced options / Import hosts file (append)

    Create a file on the phone with this content:
    0.0.0.0 api.comdirect.de

    This way I can leave the connection to the internet on when starting/using the app.
    No version check can be performed, so the app should work forever ...

    One cannot use the TAN push service anymore but only the „photoTAN Grafik“.

    So guys
    My favorite solution:
    Magisk canary
    Riru
    Riru unshare
    Riru lsposed
    Xprivacilua 1.30

    Safety net is ok
    Phototan working
