I always favored rooting my phone, used to have a redmi 4x with magisk and lineage os. It was time for a new phone, and got a xiaomi note 10S.

On the 4x I noticed that play store did not list revolut and other banking apps, and the bank Im using said I can’t use the app on rooted phone, so I decided not to root my 10S.

However I still think about unlocking and rooting it, but I’m afraid of my banking apps no longer working.

I still would like to use my phone like I did before: NFC payments (google pay), banking apps, play store for said apps, google maps.

Is it possible to create a setup like this? Should I even try?

    What a coincidence, today the first major roadblock was met: Google Wallet: It won’t allow using google pay on their device, probably because SafetyNet fails. Although it also should be circumventable, going to look into it on weekend.

      Tip in advance: the universal SafetyNet bypass will give you a software backed green tick, but that doesn’t fix Google Pay. I can’t use it anyway for weird country exclusivity reasons, but I noticed it bitched about my device when I accidentally opened it.
