Are there any rooted ROMs out there that support Samsung Pay or is it currently a choice of one or the other? I'm currently on a stock OE2 (5.0.2) with root and flashfire. I don't care whether the ROM is 5.0.2 or 5.1, my main goal is to get Samsung Pay working.
Thanks,
Nick
Unfortunately it is one or the other. All these roms came out before Samsung pay came out.
This is the only thing that I wish I had working too

Hello,
I recently upgraded to the Sprint Galaxy Note 5 from a Sprint Galaxy S3 stock rooted.
Note 5 should arrive by mail this Friday. I would like for the Note 5 to be stock rooted.
Can anyone advise the best way to do this? I was able to be stock rooted on my S3 via Odin and the S3 has been awesome.
An opportunity presented itself in which I was able to upgrade to the Note 5.
I don't plan to flash custom roms in the short term, but perhaps in the far future I might.
I read about tripping the Knox counter and how it affects Samsung Pay, but I had never used Samsung Pay before.
If I have to give up Samsung Pay to be stock rooted on the Note 5, then that it fine.
Once the Note is stock rooted, I'll like to do the following:
1. disable/freeze some bloat apps via Titanium Backup
2. underclock the processor while my screen is off for maximum battery life.
3. install Xposed and some of my favorite modules
Thank you in advance for anyone's help.
P.S. Sorry in advance if my new thread is in the wrong forum. It has been a while since I have posted in any XDA forums.
Hi, reading through the forums, it sounds like rooting a Note Pro 12.2 on Verizon is either very difficult, or impossible? I'm going to buy one of these for either VZW or AT&T to test for my team of 6 salespeople to use in the field and would need it to be rooted so we can use multi window on all apps. Would prefer VZW because I have most of my devices there now and use Message+ which is awesome for texting on all my devices. But if I have to go AT&T to root, I'll do that - I think this functionality is more important to us. I'd appreciate any input you have on this, and also if someone would be willing to walk me through the rooting process I'd be happy to compensate. Thanks, Scott

Rooting the Verizon model is very easy as long as it is on Android 4.4 (Android 5.1 was recently released for it and is not rootable)
The instructions here are what I used, they are very straightforward: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2795630
The downside to the carrier models is that they have locked bootloaders.
So even though you can get root access you wont be able to install Roms or alternate recovery images and such, so you would be stuck on android 4.4.
You would be able to do everything you normally could do on a rooted 4.4 stock rom though.
I have the Verizon model (SM-P905V) and I love it, I currently have a T-mobile sim in it and it gets LTE with no issues.
if you want to be able to root, install a custom recovery and install roms as well as have mobile Broadband you would need the international LTE model (SM-P905) but they are increasingly hard to find for some reason.

This is not true, I rooted and installed a ROM, was unhappy with it and went back to stock ROM with no root. I use Samsung Pay all the time.

6 months ago it was true.........and i think still is
On this thread they claim is possible to have Samsung pay on a knox tripped device...but
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s7/how-to/knox-samsung-pay-root-t3549935
No real proof on thread that is really working.....
full stock and knox tripped i do not think so
If device is less than a year old
Contact samsung a claim a warrenty repair, i called uk line & it was an automatic service i was sent a box to return it with ups & i got a refurb phone 10 days later, i might of been luck though
I searched around and found these threads:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3495229
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3508319
Which covers a few questions but not all.
I currently own a OnePlus 3, if I were to flash 7.1 would this break Samsung Pay inside the watch? Based on that thread above, it seems it does for the Pixel.
Would it be possible to be rooted systemless (pass Safetynet) and use Samsung Pay? Has anyone tried this using magisk root to pass safetynet and use Samsung Pay on their watch?
Thank you guys for your time answering these questions. :good:
Android 7.1 isn't supported yet, as far as I know it has nothing to do with root if you're not on a Samsung phone. You should be fine as long as you're on 7.0 or marshmallow.
Awesome, so even if you're rooted and on 7.0 you can still use Samsung Pay?
I'm on 7.1 and rooted. It works fine.

Yes, from what I've read. And judging by the other comment it is possible on 7.1 now, not sure if it was some update or what that allowed it but you don't have to worry about root being the cause of you not able to use Samsung pay.
So I plan on buying a used Galaxy S6 and wanted to know which version (SM-G9XXX) is the best (most compatible with mods). Because I plan on rooting and modding the crap out of it . The only reason I ask this is because I have bought phones before with the intention of rooting and modding only to find out that it's not possible.

Well depends on where you're from and whether you will be using mm or nougat. The international version g920f seems to be the more supported version kernel and rom wise but there other models such as the g920i/g920w8/t which have a level of Rom and kernel support, do not get the g920a though that has no chance of mods, there are also a few other obscure variants which no one really supports either.
Well thanks :good: . Looks like I'm going to get the G920F.
