Itsme not working

[Timmmmaaahh!]

It's in the playstore app : on the Itsme page, select the 3 dots "..." and uncheck "automatic updates". This setting is per package, but I don't know if istme will be forced if I select "update all"

When any installed app on your device has auto update disabled in the Play Store, and you tap 'update all', it will ask you every time for each such app if you want to update it anyway. Play Store is very persistent about updating apps and at some point it will even update (or trick you into updating) these apps, regardless of your settings. It's notoriously known for re-enabling the auto update setting of individual apps after some time. There's more rigorous ways of preventing this, like with TeMeFi, but these are quite destructive so use these at your own risk. It's safer and easier to just revert to an older version using something like TitaniumBackup.

i'm using mindetach to prevent updating. No issues so far...

You can also use HMA to hide itsme from playstore

I can only find a VPN app under that name, is it that?

No, it's the one @oniemjan has mentioned above this post.
Please note that you need lsposed for this to work. You could say that HMA is an lsposed module, and lsposed is a magisk module.
Do some research on xda prior to diving into this. Read different tutorials up front.
There is also a very good and recent HMA tutorial here on xda on how to configure it.
I use HMA to hide amongst other apps: itsme, youtube and youtube music from the play store (the youtube's are because they've been altered by revanced).
If you look up those hidden aps in the play store, they'll appear as not yet installed, so the button asks you to install. Logically, you should never click on it

I'm currently sticking to 3.11.0 as 3.12.0 is detecting root again.

All versions of Itsme work perfect for me with Magisk Delta Canary .

Make sure that zygisk is disabled, the magisk app is hidden and that Magisk hide is active. Then add all necessary apps to denylist.

Make sure to add following apps to denylist :

Carrier Services

Google play

Google Play Store

Google Play- services

Google Services Framework

and of course Itsme and all the other apps you want to hide root and magisk from.

Itsme, Payconiq, Belfius, KBC,.... all work.

No need for CTS module.
No need for Shamiko. ( Shamiko does not work with Magisk Delta Canary)

Source of what? The HMA tutorial? Easy to find with search function

And yes, I reverted to 3.11 too and then added itsme to HMA hide from playstore so it won't update automatically.

did all that and banking apps are ok, its me 3.12 still sees root.

Edit: Installed the Debug version of Magisk Delta and hid magisk and used magisk hide to work with banking app and its me and its me worked this time. I didn't hide any of the other apps you listed btw....

 

[dewingerd]

also add following to hidelist :

- Android Services Library
- Android system Webview
- Google Play Servidces for AR
- Home
And of course Itsme !!
Did you hide the Magisk app in the settingsmenu "Hide the Magisk app" ?

Ok, great. For me the canary version works great. The reason for all the other apps is to pass safetynet Attestation.

Is there a specific reason you need to pass safetynet, like Google Pay or something?

 

[Pandoriaantje]

Is there a specific reason you need to pass safetynet, like Google Pay or something?

I believe a lot of apps use that as a basic tool/framework/API to detect a modified/rooted systen. It is imperative to pass safetynet and google play (store) protect certification (playstore settings/About/Play Protection certification) as wel as 'phone status' "official" under stettings/about phone/status information. Another trap could be developer options/USB debugging.

Other then that, apps can use custom code to detect (as they see fit) unwanted apps. And therein usually lies the cat and mouse game.

 

[Bubble-be]

I have seen the USB debugging warning, but I have not encountered anything that trips over Safetynet other than Google Pay, which I don't use. So I don't feel it is imperative as you state. It keeps things a lot simpler because there's fewer running parts to keep track of.

It is a API/framework that can be implemented in any app, to do basic systen integrity attestation. So it could be a first line of defence in any app. So i'dd say it does help in some cases, depending on the app and if it uses the API.

But, I also found this:

In order to call the methods of the SafetyNet Attestation API, you must use an API key. Because the SafetyNet Attestation API is deprecated, new keys are only granted for exceptional cases.

Source: https://developer.android.com/training/safetynet/attestation

So it might indeed not be that 'imperative' anymore?

But it surely doesnt hurt, that's a fact. I always found it good practice to make sure safetynet passes.

 

[dewingerd]

Also important if not passing safetyNet Attestation : You also won't be able to install some streaming services like Netflix, (if you already installed Netflix your quality will be limited to 480p) since they don't want you to possible download their content on modified devices

I would like to report about my personal experience:

• Phone: Google Pixel 6 Pro
• OS. Android 13 (TQ1A.230105.002)
• Rooted, with Magisk Delta Canary latest version (a8bbf631)
• Zygisk not enabled
• MagiskHide enabled
• In MagiskHide all of the apps below, and anything else which looks necessary
• No modules installed
• Magisk Delta hidden

Working:

• ItsMe version 3.12.0
• Microsoft Authenticator
• Google Authenticator
• Keytrade Bank
• BNP Paribas Fortis Easy Banking
• AusweisApp2
• Commerzbank photoTAN
• SpardaSecureApp
• And many others where I am not certain whether anything special needs to be done, but which I added to the Deny List just in case

Not working:

• Google Wallet
• Microsoft Outlook via Company Portal

Google Wallet used to work with the Universal Safety Net Fix. For that, Zygisk needs to be enabled, but then ItsMe doesn’t work.

Microsoft Outlook via Company Portal never worked reliably, whatever I tried.
