Eupean banking apps refuse to launch on unlocked phones. And you need said banking apps as mandatory 2fa to log into your online banking system.

So in EU you gotta choose between banking and rooting.

Don't throw in all of europe into one pot. The banks in my country still sell separate PIN machines for 2FA, which work great.

Oh right, I completely forgot about the separate device that you have to plug into your computer and then also plug your card into the deviceand then enter your pin. It's almost as convenient as having the phone app!

You are talking about the id card reader, not independent 2FA devices that generate codes. Also, in some countries you can get a SIM card with special certificates that can be used for identification and document signing, they work on virtually any modern phone. I think that feature uses the SMS protocol underneath, but I couldn't find the confirmation.

Well that sarcasm definitely backfired mate. The device I have is a QR Code scanner that works like a phone, with the important distinction that I can do with my actual phone what I damn well please.

Denylist in magisk works for me in eu

Didn't work for me on a Samsung S6 or S10. Maybe I will try again some day but for now it's not worth the risk of never being able to go back, thanks to the Samsung physical one-time fuse.

My next phone should be a Pixel with Graphene...

S10 LineageOS user here: Works with Lygisk and the Play Integrity Fix module.

Try Kitsune Magisk. I had problems with regular Magisk but this one works really well so far.

So Samsung doesn't let users go back to stock & relock? That truly sucks!

[-] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

The apps my bank uses run perfectly well on graphene

Which is only available for a limited set of devices, does not have root, locks the bootloader again and is probably professional enough to get banks to approve their signing key. For those reasons it is nor a viable solution for everyone.

Fair point, I just wanted to mention that there are unofficial, de-googled OSs that do work with banking apps so that newbies don't get the wrong impression

Depends on the bank. Mine (BoursoBank) works on a rooted Lineage phone. I only had to add it to Magisk's exclusion list.
