FTC Pushed to Crack Down on Companies That Ruin Hardware via Software Updates

• PlayIntegrityFix

  14 4,763 8.7 C++

  Fix Play Integrity (and SafetyNet) verdicts.

  Regarding rooted android, it is possible to bypass root-checks of most banking apps:

  - 1. use MagiskSU

  - 2. add some modules to bypass SafetyNet/PlayIntegrity (https://github.com/chiteroman/PlayIntegrityFix/releases)

  - 3. For especially annoying apps add some modules to hide well-known "root apps" from the applist, so these apps don't know they're installed (https://github.com/LSPosed/LSPosed.github.io/releases + https://github.com/Dr-TSNG/Hide-My-Applist/releases)

  My local banking apps and even google wallet work mostly fine with these workarounds. Though it breaks every few months, which is then usually fixed with a magisk+module update.

• hardened_malloc

  653 1,266 6.4 C

  Hardened allocator designed for modern systems. It has integration into Android's Bionic libc and can be used externally with musl and glibc as a dynamic library for use on other Linux-based platforms. It will gain more portability / integration over time.

  

  > Smartphones are a tragedy itself. Security theatre destroyed it.

  If you're willing to buy a new device, then I recommend getting a Pixel on sale and flashing it with GrapheneOS[0]. No rooting required. Read up on it when you have a chance. Also, if you install the sandboxed Google Play Services layer (which doesn't require any Google account logins and has very limited access to the device) you will be able to run your bank app.
