I have decided to go with OP8T after all
<sagematt>
I feel rather comfortable with Xiaomi devices but I think I'd like to allow myself be rid of their bullshit if at least just this once
<sagematt>
Also I'm only going for OP8T because of how well-priced it is right now (compared to alternatives).
<sagematt>
I'll still be paying almost 40 bucks more than the Poco F3, but I'll hope for the best.
<sagematt>
Also I might end up bothering you about that overlay apk you proposed for the lineageos dialer if I happen to not have call recording activated in my country :)
<LuK1337>
k
<sagematt>
That being said I'm curious about building LineageOS myself since I've never done it, I might actually just try that instead.
<LuK1337>
if you're going to build then you may as well include partner gms / mtg and ih8sn (for safety net)
<sagematt>
<LuK1337> if you're going to build then you may as well include partner gms / mtg and ih8sn (for safety net) <-- I won't have the phone with me until early december, I'll ask you again about it then.
<sagematt>
and ih8sn (for safety net) <-- no idea what this is
<sagematt>
judging from commits, it's to spoof props and fingerprint?
<LuK1337>
fingerprint is prop too
<sagematt>
Fair enough.
<LuK1337>
main.cpp shows all props that can potentially be spoofed
<sagematt>
Yeah all that sounds mighty fine.
<LuK1337>
it's bare minimum to get snet up on device without hardware snet
<LuK1337>
all current OnePlus devices are software only
<sagematt>
I'll make a mental reminder to keep note of device props before I purge stock.
<LuK1337>
when bl is unlocked
<LuK1337>
i use 8t so i can just give you my config
<sagematt>
Oh.
<sagematt>
Okay then.
<LuK1337>
it works for google pay
<LuK1337>
can't promise anything else tho
<sagematt>
Well I do not depend on Google Pay so it's fine.
<sagematt>
As long as I can buy gacha currency that's more than enough for me.
<sagematt>
Like, pay for app subscriptions and the like.
<sagematt>
And like, pay for app subscriptions and the like.
<LuK1337>
well, stuff like this doesn't require snet
<sagematt>
Correct.
<LuK1337>
but games themselves might do
<sagematt>
None of the ones I play check snet anymore, luckily.
<sagematt>
FGO which required to fake props years ago, completely purged its root and safetynet detection a few years ago.
<sagematt>
And that incidentally sped up the game.
<LuK1337>
was root detection even worth it
<sagematt>
Ah.
<sagematt>
"I hate safetynet"
<sagematt>
Of course.
<sagematt>
<LuK1337> was root detection even worth it <-- Well, funnily, topjohnwu would use FGO as a benchmark to check his root detection countermeasures.
<sagematt>
But for the game, not really.
<sagematt>
The stuff that actually makes them money is checked server-side.
<LuK1337>
not sure why they put effort to detect it then
<sagematt>
And the game has no PvP (player versus player) features that would merit implementing root detection.
<LuK1337>
also no need to explain things like pvp to me lol
