For this guide, I'll be using a Moto X Pure Edition on Android 6.0 Marshmallow that has been rooted with SuperSU v2.78 and has TWRP 3.0.2-2 to demonstrate how to unroot and get rid of Xposed. If you can't do that, you must fully remove any form of root access and Xposed. topjohnwu recommends that your device be restored to a stock system and boot. To use Magisk, you'll need a device with an unlocked bootloader that is running Android 5.0+. The installation of Magisk will also enable Android Pay.ĭisclaimer: Android Police isn't responsible for any harm to your device - proceed at your own risk. Since Pokémon GO also uses the SafetyNet API, several users have found out that Magisk works for it as well. Magisk first gained some popularity when it was discovered that it could enable Android Pay on rooted devices, due to its ability to go around the SafetyNet API. Essentially, Magisk (which is short for Magic Mask) "aims to overcome these difficulties and create a universal interface for everyone to develop and use systemless mods." Magisk is a mod developed by XDA user topjohnwu, who is also responsible for the systemless Xposed flashable zip. Not to worry though, as there's a fairly simple way to circumvent this block. For those of you who fall into both of those categories, you're probably frustrated that with the latest version (0.37), you'll now be forbidden from playing the game on your phone, just because some no-gooders used GPS spoofing and/or Xposed modules to get ahead. It's also very possible that you play Pokémon GO, which can probably be considered the fad of the year.

If you follow Android Police, there's a good chance you've got a rooted device, whether it be an easy-to-root Nexus or something like a Galaxy that takes more effort to do so.
