Identity Secret on Galaxy S8


Xerye  trade.tf  πŸ“±βœ”

Recommended Posts

Hello :)

I got a new phone, a Samsung Galaxy S8 so need a new identity_secret.
I dont want to root my phone, so I used ADB with USB-Debugging - as allways before.

I did that on a few phones allready and it allways worked.

But on the Galaxy S8 I cannot get it to work :(
When I use "adb backup -noapk /data/data/com.valvesoftware.android.steam.community" I get a 1KB big backup.ab wich is not much bigger after being converted into backup.tar - the backup.tar is empty.

When I use "adb backup -all" it backsup all my apps into the backup.ab and is several MB big, when converted into backpack.tar I can enter all my apps and their files BUT valve/steam app is not there X_x

Did anyone allready extract the secret_identity successfully on a Galaxy S8?
I have the suspicion that the steam-app has new securitystuff implemented that excludes the app from being backup'd - could that be?
Im pretty sure I am not doing anything wrong in the console as Im totally not new to this ^^ Also the backup -all works, so my ADB is not broken, but as said the only app thats missing in the backup is valve/steam!

I would be very happy about any help.

And again, I dont want to root - I really dont want to ^^
Cheers ^^

What I also could imagine is to setup a virtual phone on my computer to use that one as the "mainphone" for the authenticator and to extract that ones identity_secret.

If thats even possible ^^ I dont know never looked into that but maybe someone allready did that? :D xD

The only options I know of:

1) root/jailbreak-> not guaranteed, I've only ever done this on ios

2) you can use Fiddler to sniff your own packets when you setup 2FA, I don't know if this method still works and I've also never done it.Β 

3) Desktop Authenticator

4) node-totp/node steam community (basically desktop authenticator in a node package, useful for things)Β 

Β 

Note that any of these methods besides jailbreaking/rooting will result in a temp trade ban (I think 7 days) because you have to disable and re-enable 2FA.

And the Desktop Authenticator can also autoconfirm trades? I mean when a correct trade is accepted by "backpack.tf automatic" then the Desktop Authenticator will confirm that former trade acception?
Thank you for your detaled answer Axle.

Maybe some side information: At the moment my "Backpack.tf automatic" accepts correct offers but I have to use my mobile phone everytime a trade is accepted to confirm the trade.
And I want this confirmation to be automaticly done like it allways have been before :)

Desktop Authenticator does have an option to automatically confirm everything coming through (whether it's from backpack.tf automatic or not). However, switching to desktop authenticator will give you a 7 day trade ban because of "switching phones" (the same that happens if you switch your authenticator to a different "real" phone). Once you've set it up though you'll be able to get your Steam login codes and confirm trades (or auto confirm everything, as I said before) without looking at your phone.

Also, there's an edit button for a reason; no need to double postΒ ;)
