Root and Magisk on Nougat?

After many many hours of flubbing around with the phone and this guide and that guide and soft bricks I have settled on Stock HTC with Viper10 Magisk sideloaded. Except that I have to disable all the Viper10 features to pass the SafetyNet check so I just have Stock HTC with MagiskSU basically.

I fully believe that on Android you can get everything you want and I want a near stock Android rom for light modifications, with root for AdAway, and passes SafetyNet for Android Pay and Snapchat. I just wanted to ask if anyone has been able to get a ROM that passes SafetyNet on their phones. What were the steps yall took? TMO US if that's important.
