Lineage 17.1 for FP2 - Second preview version

Ciao!
I did a new test of LOS 17 today, and here is my findings:

  • “Split screen with multi-resume” is working :white_check_mark: (see my other post)
  • Magisk is giving me root access :white_check_mark: (successfully tested with Titanium Backup)
  • this root access can be hidden to certain apps :white_check_mark: (successfully tested with Pokémon Go)
  • my banking app however is not working :red_circle:, it detects that the device is rooted :frowning: even if I selected it inside “Magisk Hide”…
    Seems that my bank is getting really inventive with root detection, last version is detecting root also in my “LOS 16 + iSu” configuration, while previous version was working with it.
  • after restoring a TWRP backup, reboot is stuck :red_circle:, as already mentioned by @urs_lesse
    I let it doing its animation for more that 15min but nothing…

However, if I do (1) TWRP restore + (2) Flashing LOS17 zip without wiping data, then the system is starting correctly :white_check_mark:, with all the apps/settings/… and without the “Finalizing configuration” message I had after the upgrade.

I searched the web for incompatibilities between TWRP and LOS17 but didn’t find any recent post, so I assume this bug is FP2-specific…
@z3ntu what could we do to debug this? Is there any logs usefuls?

What do you mean by “repatch the boot image”? My Magisk installation was two really easy steps: flashing Magisk-v20.2.zip in TWRP, then install the MagiskManager-v7.5.0.apk as a regular app…

I confirm that with the File-App, apk installation is possible, thank you for pointing that out :smiley:
