Magisk Manager Removed From Playstore

The popular root access granting app Magisk Manager has been removed from the Play Store and there are talks that the project might stop.

According to the developer topjohnwu Magisk Manager, com.topjohnwu.magisk, has been suspended and removed from Google Play as a policy strike because it violates the malicious behavior policy.

What is the so-called “malicious behavior”? From what I’ve suspect, viewing the definition of malicious behavior, most likely I violated the two following policies:

• Apps that introduce or exploit security vulnerabilities.Apps or
• SDKs that download executable code, such as dex files or native code, from a source other than Google Play.

For the first policy: Magisk bypasses Google’s strict compatibility check – the CTS check on tampered devices (SafetyNet checks CTS status). CTS is what Google judge whether a manufacturer can ship a device with its Google services, so Google is definitely really serious about this issue. Also, Magisk roots your device, patches tons of SELinux policies (all rooting method do) etc, which is also an obvious security breach. However, I doubt this was the main reason, since many superuser management apps are also on the Play Store.

The main reason should be the other one.

The second rule I listed can be translated to: you cannot have anything “market-like” to let users download and run code on your device. Apparently, Magisk’s Online Repo is a complete violation against this rule.

But we don't have to worry the developer as issued that he will continue to provide the app from XDA or from other 3 party sites so its ok. Mostly it should be released on XDA since it is the android development hub.

OnePlus 5 Leaks Out In first Official Image

OnePlus 5 features a horizontal dual-camera setup, which OnePlus previously teased. Additionally, the device will come in a nice shade of black, similar to OnePlus 3T. The OnePus 5 appears to feature nice curved edges for improved ergonomics. Aside from that, it’s difficult to tell if the design will differ drastically compared to the OnePlus 3 and OnePlus 3T. It doesn’t appear the device will feature an edge-to-edge display, something we saw from the LG G6 and Galaxy S8. We already know the OnePlus 5 will come with a Snapdragon 835 processor but other internal specs are unknown. OnePlus also confirmed it worked with DxO to ensure its camera is the best it can be. At this point, we pretty much know all there is to know about the OnePlus 5, including, it seems, the final design. OnePlus will officially unveil the OnePlus 5 on June 20. Source: Technobuffalo
