I can’t root my phone because I don’t have an image for it (Moto G73) although I’d like to, but for some reason my banking app thinks it’s rooted and refuses to work. This happened just after I updated it, it wasn’t happening before.
Edit: I’m regretting not getting the Motorola Edge 40 Neo, which also costs £250, but is slightly better in multiple ways, and seems like it has better root support.
Would not recommend rooting anymore, as many apps that have a financial/banking/CC aspect will stop working. Like this one. Rooting used to serve great purposes & had no drawbacks; now there aren’t many perks and many punishments. Even your Snapchat will refuse to work, probably because “you can use Snapchat to send & receive money”. No one does, but that doesn’t matter.
That sucks & I’m sorry. This (probably) wouldn’t have helped with a banking app, which forces you to update frequently, but I do not update apps unless: they are buggy, there’s an update I’d really like, or I am forced. Not all updates are good.
This is misinformation in the sense that with Magisk, Magiskhide and its denylist, I haven’t seen an app that detects root. Everything works for me even though I’m rooted.
Not saying there aren’t cases depending on phone and apps where it couldn’t happen, but usually rooting is not a problem.
Oh that’s fine, I’m glad it’s working for you. I just remember I tried to put some form of Magisk on my rooted S8 Active & it was just a whole thing, I don’t think I was successful. My financial stuff, my Samsung wallet, and even Snapchat didn’t work.
Next phone & on, I thought about the reasons why I rooted in the first place. Enough of those reasons are resolved, or a non-issue now. I’ve turned into a more boring, regular adult that streams, surfs web, checks email, calls/texts. I’ve grown tired of jumping through hoops. 👍🏻 😴 Definitely miss making my battery last forever, though.
