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?

    I was in a similar boat to you but never take my wallet anywhere so needed Google Pay. I used to use the options other mentioned like Magisk but odd days it didn’t work after an update meaning NFC didn’t work. I couldn’t risk it so decided to stop using it. I only really needed adblocking and you don’t need root for that anymore.
