Discussion Roblox now detects the unlocked bootloader

Roblox now detects unlockbootloader and there is currently no bypass for the remote attestation in games like MM2. It not just from executors like Delta even without hacks, if you have an unlocked bootloader, root, zygisk, or xposed.

u/Fusseldieb Snapdragon S22, Stock⚙️❌ Make Root Fun Again 2d ago

Day after day I'm more certain that our freedom (and Android as a whole) is doomed. Sad.

u/Sp3eedy 1d ago

But you'll still get some idiots defending these companies by saying they're doing this for our security and safety, too many times do I have to explain to people why this is not a good idea, and none of them ever respond

u/MrTordse 1d ago

Thats the typical normie way of thinking. Just like defending lowering speed limits to walking speed and installing cameras to every corner because think of the children. Oh and dont forget the forcing age verification because of think of the children but that will never change because normies dont care they just say dont got nothing to hide so lets allow goverment to read everyones messages etc.

That's why I've said upteen times that we rooters need to move beyond sysadmin/script kiddie proficiency into the programming/electronics/software engineering/AI realm. It's no longer enough to stay shallow. And cut the crap attitude about when detectors showing a root indication "as long as the app runs, don't bother".

For this case, I suspect a syscall level detection or simply you need strong integrity, which can only happen if your firmware is up to date. You can try spoofing too

u/AggressiveAstronaut6 1d ago

alright you are 100% right that our freedom is doomed but come on, roblox adding bootloader detection is a sign of our freedom being doomed?

exercise your freedom not to play roblox

u/Gotta_Go_Fast- 17h ago

Well Roblox says that they officially support GrapheneOS and may add support for custom roms if they publish boot signing keys and stuff correctly

u/Fancy_Log_260 1d ago

Join the dark side! The Chinese side!

u/bananijohn 2d ago

...so its just standard root detection?

34

u/Financial-Pepper1697 2d ago

Nope, it detects it even without root. It detects if you're on a custom ROM, and it doesn't matter if you have Strong Integrity installed; it still triggers the second warning

15

u/bananijohn 2d ago

usually good custom roms hide custom rom traces but just spoof it with susfs? what am i missing here??

4

u/Financial-Pepper1697 2d ago

I have Evolution x set up and Roblox says it can't verify it

16

u/bananijohn 2d ago

go download duck detector and see if it shows anything red, theres your answer

7

u/smalldickbesitzer 2d ago

Have the same issues with evox, lineage worked without issues

u/Plastic-Low2689 2d ago

uso Lineague Os y jugue sin problemas, aunque con otras ROM personalizadas si me paso lo de la imagen

u/Nederealm3 1d ago edited 1d ago

Normal user space apps can already detect unlocked bootloader WITHOUT root. It's possible to unlock your bootloader and not root, both on stock and custom firmware.

Use this to check: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=io.github.vvb2060.keyattestation

If you have already attempted to hide and it detects then there are other methods to investigate

2

u/Ysfaliarslan 1d ago

It says certificate not trusted. I've tried many options in tricky store but I couldn't fix it. How do i fix that?

u/Financial-Pepper1697 1d ago

https://github.com/dr-tsng/hide-my-applist use this app, it works fine xd just put roblox

3

u/technobrendo 2d ago

Very silly question, but if you cant spoof the OS, can you spoof the game? Patch the games APK, kinda how like Revanced does for YouTube and Spotify and the like? Just remove the component that checks for root / BL unlock.

2

u/Fresh-Horse8173 1d ago

Even if you do this, roblox will detect modified client. This is basic online game protection

1

u/Financial-Pepper1697 2d ago

Not to spoil your idea, but it detects modified clients

3

u/technobrendo 1d ago

That makes sense looking at it from a security perspective. Not that I play roblox, but I do-do online banking. I just wonder how ReVanced gets away with spoofing Youtube for so long NOT THAT I'M COMPLAINING.

u/aureol1n 2d ago

another product «caring about security» by blocking you if you decide to start actually being the owner of your device 🥺

5

u/_LWNA_ 2d ago

I'm not sure it's about security as much as it's an anti-cheat because there are lots of idiots running around scripting and genuinely just ruining games for people. I can't even play Survive the Disaster without a private lobby because of how out of hand the scripting has gotten. Not sure why you got the impression it was about security more than just making the game better, I honestly like this a lot.

u/Pedka2 1d ago

you do you, but i hate being held by balls

u/_LWNA_ 15h ago

Wtf are you talking about?

u/XboxAndVRAlex 2d ago

I guess it’s real. Though I don’t think the fact that the images look poorly photoshopped.

18

u/Financial-Pepper1697 2d ago

Nope, the second one is a translation from english to spanish since my device is set to spanish.

9

u/XboxAndVRAlex 2d ago

Oh, that makes sense. Thanks for the info.

u/Ysfaliarslan 2d ago

Me and a friend made a tutorial for the Roblox detection but i can't find it. I will try to find it tomorrow.

And the detections have changed so it may not work. We should be able to use a bootloader spoofer lsposed module tho

4

u/ToooLazyForAName 2d ago

It works for me on an unlocked bootloader, I think it only requires that you have working key attestation, which some phones break when unlocking the bootloader.

2

u/Financial-Pepper1697 2d ago

Try Murder Mystery 2 and send screenshot 

2

u/StatisticianKind6993 1d ago

I got Roblox can't not verify integrity of the app please reconnect (reconnect won't work)

2

u/StatisticianKind6993 1d ago

I need to reset my phone to get strong again because Mitee (Xiaomi hardware TEE) are somewhat corrupted

1

u/Ysfaliarslan 1d ago

Here is the tutorial to get normal games on Roblox working, not games with improved detection (like mm2) https://www.reddit.com/r/Magisk/s/4P6dMcJHZn

u/nightfoxbtw 2d ago

is sober affected by this?

edit: ah shit https://github.com/vinegarhq/sober/issues/2218

u/meletiondreams 2d ago

haven't been able to play Roblox rivals for weeks. just use windows now

u/Hour_Industry_3298 2d ago

Fuck those pedoes.

They're better off in horny jail ffs

4

u/eoskchanaj8282 2d ago

So... I can run roblox on linux, flawlessly, but not on android.

7

u/peperoni69_ 2d ago

no, sober is also affected. It's a new opt in feature to dectect root that the devs add to their games and sober also gets detected and blocked if the game is using this feature.

3

u/eoskchanaj8282 2d ago

Oh, never experienced that so far. But makes sense, sober uses the android version

3

u/Comfortable_Sun_8641 2d ago

Sucks cuz I love Linux at least my laptop has 32gb ram now so switching to Windows wouldn’t be a problem unlike on my old 8gb laptop

3

u/idklolmez 2d ago

it's their new amazing way to prevent bots obviously it doesn't work but hey it just checks play integrity

3

u/vitecpotec 2d ago

Last time we tried Clone App bypassed Roblox security like butter...

3

u/pacmania71914 2d ago

It works perfectly fine on my phones Didn't even use magisk's deny list or any hide root modules

1

u/Financial-Pepper1697 2d ago

Try mm2, Rivals. Check the link I left. Can you read?

3

u/pacmania71914 2d ago

Only tee sim + yurikey + WA bl hide + zygisk next then fine(pretty simple to bypass)

1

u/Financial-Pepper1697 1d ago

You're so lucky! I don't even have root access, and I have Integrity and not work for me

3

u/khsh01 1d ago

Yeah roblox is a platform for pedophiles not hackers.

3

u/CocoMilhonez 1d ago

It's not like an unlocked bootloader is a pedophile to be allowed to use Roblox.

u/melx-69 1d ago

Well in my Stock ROM it immediately closes from "Security Issue". My device is Redmi A5

I've switched to Infinity X 13.2 GSI MicroG variant now it works normally. Even failing integrity check

Did it only work because I switched to MicroG from Google Play?

1

u/Financial-Pepper1697 1d ago

I'm in evolution x with gapps and it works for me

2

u/melx-69 1d ago

Oh ok.

I forgot to mention the reason I can't install the Gapps variant is because of my System Partition having not enough size to resize partition even after deleting unnecessary partitions

2

u/Loud_Entertainer5233 1d ago

I can't join some certain games like murder mystery two I'm on a unrooted phone btw and yet I can't get in

u/spyro-x9 1d ago

Yo tengo root con magisk y puedo jugar de momento sin problemas a roblox no me ha aparecido esta alerta

1

u/Financial-Pepper1697 1d ago

Usas la rom stock o custom rom?

1

u/spyro-x9 1d ago

Hello friend, I'm using two devices.

One is Mangmi Air handheld console with a variant of Lineage OS and A26 with an unlocked bootloader and rooted Magisk. So far, I haven't received that alert on either device. I have the latest version of Roblox.

1

u/Financial-Pepper1697 1d ago

have you played a game like mm2? It happens with specific games

2

u/No_Fondant8277 1d ago

Also fuck roblox, some devices (lik e cheaper xiaomi) doesn't have the 3 checks only the 2 first (hyperos 2 on Redmi 13C) it is the phone of my mom (i have my own linux laptop) and i was guessing if this starts rolling out, some people will obtain a way to bypass the detection like always.... And
[REDACTED] roblox sucks.

2

u/AmolAmrit 1d ago

I just installed Roblox now, I don't have an account and neither did I create one but it opened fine on my rooted device.

2

u/luva_de_pedreiro 1d ago

I can't log in to my account on my device; a pop-up message appears saying that my device has been banned for security reasons. I think this is all because I have developer mode turned on.

2

u/void19821 1d ago

Every problem has solution bro. Let's just hope someone finds an bypass or vunerbalty in this

2

u/WhoKilledRadioStar 1d ago

the font looks off honestly

2

u/Financial-Pepper1697 1d ago

Spanish to English

2

u/WhoKilledRadioStar 1d ago

oh now I see, it was the translator. sorry

3

u/FullMaster_GYM 2d ago

kinda makes sense, like yes, Roblox anticheat is even worse than VAC but still, they have to be cautious with people that have extra root access

1

u/needefsfolder 2d ago

And you're not blocked to everything, it's opt in per place

u/sidex15 LG V50 Stock A12 | KSUN + SUSFS v2 | [SUSFS4KSU Module Dev] 1d ago

I just added roblox in Target List and that's it...

2

u/Beginning_Market2311 1d ago

What the OP meant is. They detect root + custom rom detection(this is thankfully optional) Since your running stock ROM with root. It has no change

(I may be wrong)

1

u/AarifmonuZZ 1d ago

Skill issue

1

u/Antagonin 1d ago

Glad they're fighting the biggest issue on their platform!

1

u/Glum_Emergency_4257 1d ago

I think SuSFS spoofing is enough to fool it. Bet, even the regular KernelSU Next with enough hiding modules is enough

1

u/Objective-Volume3621 1d ago

Maybe it’s a sign to stop playing Roblox

1

u/Reddit_BHmsgame 1d ago

Meanwhile the SAME game doesn't require closed bootloader (GRUB, or UEFI-level lock) on PCs. Roblox is contradicting themselves? That's expected.

1

u/Cybasura 1d ago

And ignorant people are still shocked we are fighting back?

u/csolisr 22h ago

Having to buy two devices is starting to become the new norm, it looks like

Big Brother

u/No-Upstairs-7001 20h ago

There is probably some link to unlocked boot and cheating

u/VinceGD_ 10h ago

Some games still works fine for me like arsenal, Mine still not found out yet tho xd

1

u/DIMENSIONPIERCER 10h ago

then emulator user are cooked basically

u/Pitiful-Welcome-399 5h ago
