According to Graphene OS, the Compatibility Test Suite and Compatibility Definition Document requirements Google says are key to Play Integrity compliance are in practice routinely ignored, and the system easily bypassed.

Just wanted to say, I use a custom ROM with software on it to circumvent the Play integrity stuff.

Oh no, my device is insecure, there could be malware on it. But people use Windows PCs to access their banking website. I’m sure there can’t be any malware on PCs!

Looking forward to this. I don’t run a custom ROM myself but I am rooted, primarily to revoke permissions from Google apps and to back up my OS and app data as I desire.

However I’d much prefer to be able to run something like GrapheneOS on a Pixel if it meant I could run apps that are picky about Safetynet/Play Integrity, such as banking apps and the like

Most things works fine, if they don’t there are ways around it, like installing the neutered play version. Only hard NO currently is Gpay.

Not missing root functionality things at all

It’s high time Custom ROMs and users alike did this. I cannot run a custom ROM on my primary device due to play integrity shenanigans some apps may have.
