Trick the Kia Connect app into not knowing that the phone is rooted
Hello. I have a Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S with LineageOS, rooted with Magisk. When I open the Kia Connect app, it tells me that I cannot use it because my phone is rooted. In Magisk, I have the Play Integrity Fix module and Zygisk Assistant installed. What I usually do when this happens is mark the app in the Magisk deny list, but even when I do that for this app, it still detects the root. How can I fix this? Thank you very much.
I think it may be caused by an old version of Magisk. Which one are you using?
28.1
Hmm then it shouldn't be the issue. Did you clear the Kia app's data after enabling all the hiding stuff?
Yeah, I have tried several times, reinstalling, deleting all the data, etc.
I don't know what is happening. With another app that I installed today, I had the same issue as with the Kia app, but I did the same thing and it worked. With the Kia app, there’s no way.
Hmm maybe the Kia app uses another trigger. You see, most apps will say "root detected" even if the thing that triggered them was not root. It can be the unlocked bootloader or many other factors. I'd suggest joining the official Telegram group for your phone. People there should have more knowledge on spoofing.
Where can I find that Telegram chat? The truth is that I don't want to use Telegram, but if I can solve it, I'll give it a try.
On the other hand, I have launched the two apps mentioned in https://github.com/chiteroman/PlayIntegrityFix:
And these are the results.
I think it might be the problem, but I really don't know how to fix it.
According to what I read in the PlayIntegrityFix module, MEETS_BASIC_INTEGRITY should pass and ctsProfileMatch should be true.
I got it working with Play Integrity Fork.
Thank you very much for the help
It looks like your phone is so old it's not even in the Xiaomeme Telegram federation. That'll make finding a solution a bit harder.
In case you didn't know, Play Integrity Fix is currently broken and doesn't work reliably. Fixing it is like rolling a dice unfortunately. It's pretty much random. The recommended solution now is getting a second phone with the stock ROM installed and using that for apps that require Play Integrity. Google is planning to make passing it even harder on custom ROMs soon anyways.
