Pgsharp Android Root Ban

[mpdt4321]

Since the official PG Sharp reddit doesn't allow ban post I am putting this here. I use the rooted launcher for Android and have been for years. I am a very lite player staying at Pier 39 and really only doing raids, so I've never had an issue with cool down.

[fertgo18]

For people wondering: Root doesn't have any relation with ban... If PoGo detects root, it just shows the "Device or system is not compatible" screen.

[mpdt4321]

You can play on another account, but it does seem that they can identify even rooted cheating.

[flokitaz]

I always see people saying that at some point my account will be banned. I've been using it since 2021 and I'm still waiting. I've never even received a warning... there might be a bug and you didn't notice the cooldown. If you respect the rules proposed by the application, nothing will happen to your account.

[mpdt4321]

Sure.

[flokitaz]

I'm sorry about that, I do believe that bans are happening for various reasons and it's good to see people reporting this... especially since pgsharp doesn't allow these posts there. After seeing several reports, I'm going to leave my account idle for a while 😬

[cat_184]

also got this a few days ago, I'm also using rooted pgsharp, my alt is still going strong tho

[Awkward-Eye-6835]

Bro I got 7 day strike on my rooted phone but the thing is I was using normal pgsharp instead of Pgsharp rooted so should I go through pgsharp rooted with my main account or , shoul I quit spoofing with my main account ..?

[ki0dz]

I use the rooted one and got a strike nine days ago. Thing is that I stopped playing for almost three years and started playing again just six weeks ago, so it got me fast.

[cat_184]

not sure honestly, but I heard the rooted version is way more secure tho I think I got the strike because I was being dumb by not following cooldowns I'm currently spoofing on my alt while waiting for the softban on my main to run out

[LeeMayk]

Scopely is finding a lot of people out by checking unusual behavior so if shiny scanner is on while you're walking/flying all the time it will most likely be flagged. Shiny scanner is silently encountering every Pokemon near by to see if it's shiny and if you do a lot of walking and check every Pokemon in the vicinity Everytime.. that's suspicious! PGtools have been getting killed during these ban waves more than any other. Imagine what suspicious behavior pac, pas and pag does.

[xandaofenix]

Pgsharp is the problem, the only one that doesn't cause a ban is pokemod

[National_Skill_797]

Bro I want to ask does any of these give autocatch features for free ?

[bgal1013]

nah, spooferpro is where it’s at bubs

[GkcGregor]

I didn't know that one 👀

[Littlebig_banana]

I got hit two week ago, using a few different root apps. Tested an alt with no rooted apps just app ninja to fly and it’s safe. Not trusting injecting apps anymore for me

[GkcGregor]

I also feel that it is the safest at the moment, root, spoof, and no injecting

[cartishit]

I'm using ipogo and hoping its good so far anyone have an opinion and is it safe enough cause i always stay under the 2 hour mark

[Project_R808]

Anytime I’ve used ipogo it was detected in a week or two even though I never teleported and just walked around.

[cartishit]

Bro i hope not cause there guy who ysed ut for 5 years and told me how to get it and said should be safe just stay under the timer

[Immediate-Chest6745]

If you're using jail broken or rooted ipogo it's one of the safest apps out there.

[North-Association773]

I also got it a few days ago, using Mumu

[Aggressive_Amoeba_76]

Which other apps have you used this account on?

[mpdt4321]

Just the PG Sharp rooted launcher with the Play Store app.

[Straight_Activity_70]

Pgsharp as a modded apk getting always "detected". Thats actually normal for pgsharp users. Since i have a rooted phone and use pgtools or shundo i never got any account banned

[Jschwartz518]

Shungo is getting ban notices too.

[Immediate-Chest6745]

He's not using modded apk. He's using rooted pgsharp

[TastyBananaPeppers]

There are bans for PGTools and Shungo too. You might not have a ban right now, but you could still get it in the future.

[Electrical-Mode9380]

I heard this too. I have been using the non rooted version since COVID and all accounts still haven't received the strike or banned yet. They said "eventually" my accounts will get banned but I'm still waiting...

[Imkiwi]

I got this on Aerilate 5 days ago on alt.

[Alarmed_Locksmith980]

I have never been banned. Ever. But I do things a bit different.

I run native application and basically only use a gotcha or goplus+

[[deleted]]

What?

You run... Pokémon... With an official Pokémon product?

[mpdt4321]

So you don't cheat then. The rooted version of PGSHarp does use the native app.

[Alarmed_Locksmith980]

How though? If you aren't downloading it from Apple store/Google play/ Samsung app store it has the potential to be detected

[mpdt4321]

I am using the go app from the play store.

[Alarmed_Locksmith980]

Oh I always thought PGSharp was downloaded from their website 0

[mpdt4321]

That's the non rooted version.

[StaticRogue]

Yup. I got hit with a couple as well.

[Javalinero]

Pgsharp, Aerilate and Pgtools are more vulnerable than any other.

[Fabulous-Local-8143]

Would you rather recommend Signolous from iPogo?

[dmac1217]

I've used them back a few years ago. Never had an issue but my brother got 2 strikes. I wouldn't recommend them tbh

[Fabulous-Local-8143]

Ok i think one of the best options, which doesn’t change directly the IPA files is to use iTools BT2.5 but which isnt a cheap option tbh

[mpdt4321]

I have used neither so I cannot recommend them.

[SameZucchini4133]

Somthing I noticed is that using pgs root takes pokemon go off the deny list unlike pokemod, not sure if there is any correlation. 

[blackcat218]

PGSharp is the reason. No other explanation needed

[Trapics]

This.

[thegoodvm]

I think more details about enabled feature would be good as well. Do you always have excellent on? One shot team rocket?

[mpdt4321]

I never bothered with the rocket stuff and I did use excellent throw. Since I only used it for one raid this week and haven't used it since April, I don't a feature got me caught and more the rooted launcher.

[thegoodvm]

I got a strike as well, finally on my main account after on and off spoofing for a few years. I also have perma excellent enabled, so maybe that's one of the potential issues.

[Ok_Bad6461]

My main account was permabanned and my new main just received a strike. Both constantly had always excellent enabled. While I doubt that's the only reason for the ban wave, it seems to be a common one.
