I always wanted to try it, but my bank wont let me login if I'm not on on the devices OG OS, I used to run Custom ROM until that started to happen.

[–] kalpol@lemmy.world 16 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Meanwhile, the OG OS has more vulnerabilities probably

[–] GOTFrog@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 7 months ago

Yes so freaking annoying

[–] skuzz@discuss.tchncs.de 6 points 7 months ago

Try the bank’s web site. Companies all push apps to harvest all your data. Very few compute services actually need them.

[–] mudeth@lemmy.ca 4 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago) (2 children)

There are workarounds:

Install magisk, add the app to the zygisk denylist before first run.

Install ~~universal safetynet fix and magisk hide props config (modules for magisk).~~

For some apps, you may have to install them in island so that they can't detect the magisk app.

[–] moitoi@feddit.de 3 points 7 months ago (1 children)

You need play integrity fix instead of safetynet and just activating zygisk should be fine on latest magisk.

[–] mudeth@lemmy.ca 2 points 7 months ago

Thanks. I have a pretty old install so my module list is a relic of the time but it makes sense why it still works for me. I'll edit.

[–] MigratingtoLemmy@lemmy.world 1 points 7 months ago (1 children)

SafetyNet is deprecated on newer versions of Android

[–] FrameXX@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago) (1 children)

There are new solutions constantly developed such as PlayIntegrityNEXT. With some effort you can get rooted Android 14 device with custom ROM pass Play Integrity attestation.

[–] MigratingtoLemmy@lemmy.world 1 points 7 months ago

Very interesting, thanks!

[–] Cosmocrat@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 7 months ago (2 children)

Sounds like you should switch to a credit union.

[–] LordSarcasmio@lemm.ee 1 points 7 months ago (1 children)

And when it comes to apps, credit unions aren't always better... In fact I've noticed they almost never are.

[–] Ilandar@aussie.zone 1 points 7 months ago

Why do you need an app for banking...?

[–] laughterlaughter@lemmy.world 1 points 7 months ago (1 children)

That's besides the point. We don't know why OP needs to bank with them.

[–] Cosmocrat@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 7 months ago

Yeah I was suggesting really any bank that doesn't have asinine requirements, I just default to credit unions since they are better for clients.
