PayTM App Asking For ROOT Permission But Why?

Image
Banking and Payments applications are the ones which deny to work on devices with Root access. Many banking applications give you warning if your device is rooted, such as UPI app BHIM, whereas some apps don�t work at all if they detect root access on your phone. This is done to make sure that safety of your banking details isn�t compromised while you�re doing any transaction on your rooted device, since rooting is considered as harmful (and it can be, sometimes). But, what happened recently, completely shocked me. Something unexpected happened a day before. I�m using a Xiaomi Mi A1 device which is a great phone. But the front camera performance on this phone was pretty average in my opinion So, I enabled root access on my device using the Magisk method. Magisk is a wonderful tool, developed by the folks at XDA. Since, Magisk is a systemless root method and OTAs are not affected, so I went ahead to root my new device. I installed Google Pixel 2�s ported camera app, which captures amazi...

Xiaomi has always been know for great products at really affordable prices without compromising on the hardware, software or the quality of the product. This is the main reason which made them so popular in such a less amount of them.

Last year�s Redmi Note 4 was a huge success, which sold more than 9.6 Million units (in 2017)  as per the company claims. The other offerings such as Redmi 4, Redmi Y1/Y1 Lite, Redmi 5 and the Android One device Mi A1 contributed to make Xiaomi as the No. 1 Mobile company in India in the last 2 quarters of 2017 which is nothing less than astonishing for a company who is considerably new, entered the Indian market just a couple of years back and it dethroned the Market leader Samsung to gain the top position in the smartphone industry.

Restrict/Block Internet For Apps on Xiaomi Mi A1 Running Android Oreo

Google has been continuously trying to improve the Android experience with every version of Android that it pushed out every year. It added some really great multitasking features such as Split Screen in Android Nougat 7.0 and now, Picture in Picture (PiP) in Android Oreo 8.0. Google is enhancing the Android OS with every update trying to improve the end user experience. But, Android being an open source OS, OEMs are free to tune it in however way they want it to. But, personally I love the stock Android experience as it is clutter-free and smooth. With Android Oreo, Google majorly focussed on improving the performance rather than just loading it with new features. Surely, they added Autofill, PiP and other cool features, but their main focus was to improve the fluidity of the OS and giving the user more control of how they want their phone and apps to behave. They revamped the Settings menu, concatenated the like-settings to one category making it easier to access. Now, you get a noti...
