  1. Wow, seems I haven't been up to date with regard to Magisk... Looks like not only MagiskHide, but also everything related to SafetyNet is removed from current Magisk releases. (See John Wu's statement in https://topjohnwu.medium.com/state-of-magisk-2021-fe29fdaee458) now that he's working for Google, and also this XDA Developers thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/discussion-magisk-the-age-of-zygisk.4393877/.) That said, MagiskHide seems to be in the state of being replaced by the Zygisk (Magisk running in the new Zygote mode) "deny list"... And the tools to ensure Safety

  2. Me to, I use stock android on my daily driver, and apart from the need for occasional boots (roughly twice a month), when it forgets it has a fingerprint reader, it works fine for me. I seldom do voice/calls, and when I do almost always with headset. But yes, certainly disappointing with the lack of updates.

  3. Thanks for the answer. My experience with the android stock software was fine (with the workarounds suggested by the users, I could use the phone and the banking apps were working). I am disappointed that there will be no update. I wrote to fxtec customer service to get official statement about android use and implications in terms of data safety (Does fxtec officially suggest to move away from android?).

  4. Also for me... anyway, Magisk has started to notify an update is available few months ago which lead for disabled notification for Magisk on my phone as I did not want to update to the "dumb" version. (Also, one of my friends did it and Safetynet has stopped working.) However, I am curious of the new solution but I will stick to LineageOS 18.1 till I don't see it is working...

  5. Basically I can use banking apps which need to pass SafetyNet test using Magisk... However, there were changes around Magisk and I don't know what the current solution is instead of MagiskHide which also needed for these apps to work. As far as I know, current version of Magisk has that removed but old version still works on LineageOS 18.1 (Android 11), however, I doubt it will work on any later major Android version(s).

  6. The polemic answer is: Yes, do not trust a phone as a safe place for data, no matter the OS or security update level... But then the big question always is HOW big the risk is, if we choose to take the chance anyway? Strictly someone could snap it out of your hand while you are using with your banking app open, so you NEVER get it completely secure... There are a lot of other things than security patch level in play. e.g. the security of the net you are using it on. That is the reason why my 'Paranoia' never would let me connect my device to a net where I do not feel they are su

  7. Excellent - Thank you. I think I will stay with what I have.

  8. I would not say it is safe considering it is more than a year since it was updated... I have used stock OS because it was set up and it is a bit harder to do a major update on a daily driver without a proper way of backup/restore in case something went wrong... However, stock OS simply had a lot of problems and LineageOS works as good as possible, the only problems remained were built into kernel, so they are basically not LineageOS-related. Device is really fast, NFC payment is working, every functions work as they should...

  9. You also might want to remember that there still is a probably small, but unknown amount of unfulfilled Pro1 orders which were converted to Pro1X orders that I very much hope will be served first! 😉
