Edit: for anyone looking at this post for answers:

In my case the culprit seems to be 'ambient music mod'

Once deinstalled, LuxTrust is happily starting!🙌

Moien,

Freshly arrived in Luxembourg, I'm going through the motions of getting settled.

One step is getting a bank account. The banking part went surprisingly smoothly, thanks Spuerkees.
But alas, I stumbled upon an issue that, in the words of the bank advisor, she has never seen.

When trying to activate LuxTrust in order to log into S-Net, my phone redirects me to the following page:

Before calling the folks at LuxTrust, I went through the usual debugging routine:

  • Turn the phone off and on again

CS GoaT

  • Disable developer options
  • Deinstall any “suspicious” app (Shizuku, ReVanced, etc…)
  • Change phone region and langu*ge to Luxembourg/French
  • Clear LT cache, deinstall LT, reinstall
  • Change play store region to Luxembourg
  • Change Google account main address to Luxembourg
  • And multiple combinations of the above in various orders… and probably stuff that I forget, including human sacrifices.

Nothing helped… so I finally called LuxTrust.

Here's in summary what they said (paraphrased):

We know that some Google phones (I have a Pixel 8 Pro) never work with LuxTrust mobile. Nothing we can/want to do anything about.
Either you buy a new phone, or you come to Capellen and buy a LuxTrust Scan (105 EUR).

I was wondering if anyone on this sub have ever been confronted to this issue?
I'd like to avoid nuking and reinstalling my phone completely (don't have time for this sh*t right now).
Buying a new phone seems overkill, and the Scan thingy is just extortion at this stage…

I am hoping maybe someone had the same issue and was able to work around it.

Thanks for reading 😉

TL;DR: Any way around "LT_HOOKING_DETECTED"?

  1. I have a Pixel and I never had any problems with Luxtrust regarding your issue.

  2. I assume you have an android ROM with root permissions? It might not work even after uninstalling the root apps.

  3. When one company controls digital access in Luxembourg, the least they owe citizens is proper compatibility…

  4. Sounds a lot like you’ve rooted your phone. Most luxembourgish apps related to banking & security tend to not work with a rooted phone.

  6. Rooting your main phone is a thing of the past. Unfortunately.

  8. What’s more important to you. Online banking or random apps?
