I always favored rooting my phone, used to have a redmi 4x with magisk and lineage os. It was time for a new phone, and got a xiaomi note 10S.

On the 4x I noticed that play store did not list revolut and other banking apps, and the bank Im using said I can’t use the app on rooted phone, so I decided not to root my 10S.

However I still think about unlocking and rooting it, but I’m afraid of my banking apps no longer working.

I still would like to use my phone like I did before: NFC payments (google pay), banking apps, play store for said apps, google maps.

Is it possible to create a setup like this? Should I even try?

    Just use a second phone for that proprietary stuff. So you dont have to comprise privacy/security on your main/private phone. Also a huge fan of xprivacylua to isolate proprietary apps and feed them random data.
