Samsung pay with root?

Anybody with a rooted phone try out Samsung Pay via the Gear S3? I have the S7 edge and haven't rooted it because I like using Samsung Pay, but if the watch can do it by itself then maybe I can root my phone and enjoy Samsung Pay all in one. Wondering if anyone wants to give it a shot if it hasn't been tested, I would but I'm waiting for Verizon to start selling it, not sure when that will be...
Thanks for the replies and/or help.
**Edit**
Recently Samsung pay for the gear now detects root. Here's the latest as of 11 April 2017:

after looking at what version of Samsung pay had on the watch which was 1.3.1703, I was able to find an apk from sammobile for version 1.2.5202. After downloading that version and I had to manually uninstall Samsung Pay through your phone settings and application manager or installing the older apk on top of the newer one would fail, I was able to access Samsung pay with no problems on my phone and was able to add back my card like i was able to do before. after adding my card I was able to blanch Samsung pay on my Watch but due to my watch Samsung pay version being higher than my phone version due to when Samsung pay updated before, it wouldn't let me use Samsung pay until my phone version was back to version 1.3.1703. but I was able to access Samsung pay on my watch with my cards showing up now. I haven't tried to see if it works but I assume that since the card is on the watch now It should work now. ill attach the older apk for anyone else to try.

I am rooted, getting an S3, was exactly about to post this question. I don't know if I can install Samsung pay on the S3 with rooted phone....
Guess I'll find out.

you cant install it on the gear3 cause it have to be setup on the phone first so maybe unless you unroot and set it up and then re-root it might stick and work idk

I wanted to know this exactly too. If the Gear s3 samsung pay works with rooted samsung phone this will be an instabuy for me. I'm quite hopeful since Samsung pay for gear s3 is supposed to work with non samsung phones which don't have knox to begin with.
Do let us know the answer when you find out for yourself! Would be very grateful.

I haven't received my Gear S3 yet, but I have a Gear S2 with Samsung Pay setup up in the Gear Manager (it's a separate app from the phone Samsung Pay app). It works perfectly on my rooted Note 4 (which doesn't run Samsung Pay itself), so I suppose it will work the same way after I get the S3.

I think it depends if your root method triggers KNOX. Samsung Pay looks to see if KNOX has been tripped and if it has, you can't add cards. Since you need to setup cards on your phone before you can use them on the watch, you won't be able to use Samsung Pay on the watch either.

Yes that's true for Samsung pay on samsung phones. Apparently however the gear s3 samsung pay uses a separate app on the phone.

That's a good sign. Do update us when you've had a chance to try on the s3!

I have a rooted Galaxy S5, I haven't been able to add a card through Gear Manager. Does it not work since I have a non-compatible samsung pay app phone or is it because its rooted? I heard that samsung pay won't work for android 4.4 and above till they release an update for samsung pay so I'm hoping that is why I can't add a card.

It seems to work with rooted phones. I have a rooted lg v20 and was able to install and set up samsung pay on the watch. I set it up with a card but havent tried it out on a terminal since its really late. But seems like it works perfectly.

Good Morning
You who have the watch, can you tell me if the Portuguese language is available?

I just updated the plugin app and was able to install Samsung Pay on my rooted Nexus 6. I have the T-mobile LTE Gear S3. I was also able to add three cards. Now I just need to make sure I can actually buy something.

That's great news! Would be perfect if anyone with a rooted Samsung phone (ideally one which would be able to run the phone SPay if it hadn't been rooted) could confirm this though. It's entirely possible though unlikely that the Gear SPay works differently on non-Samsung phones.

I have an S7 edge with Knox tripped and I cannot install Samsung pay. Has anybody else been successful?

Samsung pay for the watch or phone? Also do you live somewhere where Samsung pay may not be available? Only reason I ask is because the way to root for the US versions doesn't trip Knox.

I have the international version with custom recovery Etc, knox is definitely tripped and I'm in the US. It won't install on the phone or the watch when paired to the phone.

I am thinking there might be away to install Samsung pay with another phone or device to the watch then use the watch with the rooted phone afterwords.

I tried that, and it makes you reset the watch to connect to another phone, but if there either way please let me know

You have the F firmware, the US international is the U firmware. Maybe you'd have to change your CSC to an area where Samsung pay works.

Samsung Pay for Canada??

Did you guys have to install Samsung Pay on your watches? I can't find it on the watch and I can't find it in the store. I have it on my phone and have cards registered so why not the watch?

I don't see in Gear Manager either. It's the entire reason for this watch. It's going back to the store if Samsung Pay isn't happening or if Android Pay comes out first.

I called Samsung Pay support and they told me Samsung Pay isn't available in Canada. I told them they were incorrect as I have it on my phone already. I don't think he believed me but his comment was, we will see it in Canada when Samsung Pay is available??? I said, then it should be there already.

Since Samsung Pay already works in Canada, there should be a way to get it installed manually on the Gear S3.
Can someone with Samsung Pay on their Gear S3 extract the installer?

This issue is strictly location based. My phone is actually an AT&T G935A phone. It is unlocked, not rooted. I have it because I travel a lot into the US. I have a valid AT&T SIM and Canadian Roger SIM. I have installed the AT&T SIM and tried to reinstall Gear Manager and it still won't install Samsung Pay. During install, Gear Manager asks for permission to determine your location. If you deny it, Gear Manager won't initialize. My next trip to the US, I will try it again and see if Samsung Pay installs.

I tweeted SamsungPay and asked why we can't use SamsungPay with our Gear S3 in Canada. There response was that Canada is currently trialing SamsungPay and will get access to our S3's when it is officially released in Canada. I was not aware my access to CIBC was only a trial.

Samsung Pay not Showing up in Gear Manager Help

Hey everyone! Just picked up a gear s3 frontier (international version shipped from Korea since I live in Japan). I am pairing it with a OnePlus 3. The oneplus 3 is rooted but im not sure about anything else like Knox etc. Id like to get Samsung Pay working on the watch but of course nothing shows up in the Gear Manager where pay should be.
Not sure where to start, as Id like to keep root if possible, but definitely want to get Pay working with this setup. Any ideas would be appreciated!
I have the option to OTA update to most recent Oxygen OS and that looses my root, which i might try if I get no suggestions. TIA
Phone- Oneplus A3000 android 6.0.1 rooted, oxygen os 3.2.2
Watch- SM-R760 international, tizen version 2.3.2.1, software version R760XXU1APK6

Hi, some of us in Singapore bought Korea set also faced the same issue, I'm currently using Huawei P9 but I didn't do any modification to it. So I doubt rooting is the reason. Just give them sometimes perhaps? I just tweeted to samsung pay twitter to check on this too.

Thanks for the reply! Please update me here if you get any kind of answer. I might have to try and sell this off and get a US version to use Pay.
Im trying a big list of things, but nothing has worked so far. On the watch under NFC settings it says no tap and pay app is installed, so at least the watch is capable i think...

Samsung pay is only found on US, Australia and Singapore watches. If you didn't buy from one of those countries, you can't find Samsung Pay

Thanks for the answer. Do you think I could GPS spoof my location and get it installed, or could i install as a developer if I had the app? Or should I just return and buy the right version?

Yes, I managed to get Samsung Pay installed in Gear Manager by using GPS spoofing but that didn't put the app onto the watch. It appears if the app isn't on the watch, the Gear Manager app fails. I tried*enabling debug mode but that didn't help.

Are you running a nougat rom? I had the same problem when I tried a nougat rom on my S7E. It says installation failed and pay does not show up in Gear. It works perfectly on a MM rom

I tried a TON of roms last night, Updated my stock rom to newest MM, tried the beta Nougat, and CM13 as well as CM14 nightlies. All came up with nothing. BUT if you're saying I can GPS spoof and get it to install the app on my watch I may give it another try.

I thought it was weird Samsung didnt have Pay in Korea. But maybe its just the S3 for now? This watch came direct from Korea so I may fool around with GPS and see what happens. It definitely didnt come with the Pay app on the watch.
Ok, GPS spoofed in the US and nothing shows up in Gear Manager.. Going to try other areas but i think im SOL...

I am in the US- I am saying that I was able to get SP working on the watch only on an MM rom. I also have tripped knox and the phone is rooted, but still works perfectly. I tried several nougat roms and could not get SP installed in the Gear application- it says installation failed...

I check with Samsung Pay Singapore, and they said "only Singapore version can work with it". Screw them, everything is the same, there has to be a way ~
Now waiting for global samsung pay representative to reply

Based on other thread posts, so far all the Gears that have Samsung Pay were pre-installed in the factory with it.
Samsung Pay WAS NOT installed by Gear Manager.
The only watches with it preinstalled are ones from the supported countries.
Thus there's nothing you can do to Gear Manager to make it install Samsung Pay on the watch.
Even people who have Gear Manager in supported countries can't get Samsung Pay on watches purchased from an unsupported country.
Someone please find a way to extract it from the watch as no Gear Manager will install it.

i am using the USA t mobile model and install the Samsung pay.
you need to install the gear plug-in separately from gear store or google play store.
Have been paying for NTUC purchases and restaurants so far it is all working except for on place, the machine just prompt "void"
initially i have problem installing and USA has a 5 digit zip code whereas we have 6 digit when i was adding the credit card details.
So i Wrote to Samsung pay and ask why i cannot get it working....the answer from them is that USA gear S3 cannot work with Singapore cards!!! i thought i was doomed.
so i tried my luck again, i just entered "00000" and Bingo! it works!
i even enter Alipay now and will try in China soon.
i also wish they have WeChat pay which i used it a lot in China. it has been popular for about 4-5 years now for cashless payments.

Everyone has gear plugin app installed (it's a mandatory install after Gear Manager), but not everyone has the Samsung Pay app appearing on watch, especially those in unsupported countries or those with watches sold there.
People are able to get Samsung Pay to appear in Gear Manager with GPS spoofing but it still doesn't appear in the watch.

Where do you find the Gear Plug In separately from outside?

Perhaps the reason why it shows up is because the preinstalled software just needed to be enabled. This would explain why watches sold outside of supported countries never get Samsung pay no matter what is installed on the phone.

Samsung Pay on Gear S3 in India

Samsung Pay is officially announced in India and works on selected Galaxy Devices. I got my Gear S3 frontier from US and decided to try Samsung Pay on my watch. To my surprise, Samsung Pay on Gear S3 works perfectly fine and accepts Indian Card. I tried HDFC Debit Card and my friends's ICICI Bank Credit Card and it works perfectly fine. Samsung Pay is working with some POI's with Gear S3 and for other POI's , the machine says International Card not supported.
I guess the International card not supported error will go once Samsung officially updates Samsung Pay app for Gear to work with Indian Cards.
Update (04/07/2016): The update to Samsung Pay for Gear app (Version: 1.3.1703) , now doesn't works on rooted devices. In other words rooting your device will break Samsung Pay. If credit/debit card is already (using older version of app) added then still payments can be made with watch.
Update (23/11/2017): @adfree @Quick Silver, @aslam4580 have found a new method to run Spay on Gear S3 (any region). The method is tested and is working for many users. Head over to post https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=74602496&postcount=290 for instructions.
New cards can't be added on rooted devices
DON'T UPDATE SAMSUNG PAY APP FOR GEAR IF YOU WANT TO USE SPAY ON ROOTED DEVICES
Workaround: Use magisk hide to continue using spay app on rooted devices.

Currently I dont have any Samsung Smartphone. I am using SPay on Gear S3. The watch is paired with my Oneplus 3 which is rooted. Can you flash complete stock ROM on your s7 and try SPay. If KNOX gets triggered then SPay won't work.

Hows ur experience with the OP3 + Gear S3? Any challenges w.r.t features and functionality?
Also - From your post it seems Samsung Pay works fine if OP3 is rooted but safetynet passes using mahiskhide. is that correct? pls let me know.. thanks!!

wrong. root doesnt matter with Gear S3. if you purchased from US Then spay will work without any glitch. my friend using spay which imported from US. it wont work for those who bought S3 in india. update will come soon for Spay support

SamsungPay CH getting installed instead of SamsungPay UK

Hi,
I had officially (official Samsung reseller) bought my Galaxy S6 when I was living in Switzerland. I now live in UK.
Today I wanted to setup SPay so I have upgraded to Nougat and automatically Samsung installed the Samsung Pay app on my Galaxy S6 but i cannot for the love of god manage to find how to install it on my Gear S2. the option is simply NOT THERE.
Also I just realised that when I go in the Galaxy Apps it says "SamsunPay CH" ...
I have successfully added a UK card though.
I think this is why in my Gear S2 settings there is no option for Spay... because of the samsung Pay country version..
Can anybody tell me how to manually switch to SamsungPay UK ? Or can anyone give me the UK samsung pay apk I can try install it myself?
thank you

I'm also getting this problem, but I've never been to Switzerland and I've got a UK S7 edge, and UK sim card ?
Would love a UK apk for Samsung Pay.

After searching it appears that clever samsung didn't actually release Samsung Pay for any Gears in the UK.
No ETA announced... this probably means never

I don't care about having it on my S3 frontier at the moment, I can't even get the UK version for my phone!
Spoken to almost every department in samsung support today with no answers.

You can find the apk online somewhere instead of installing the app from playstore.
Do a Google search for:
"SamsungPay.apk UK"
Then go to system settings>security and turn on "allow unknown sources"
Then manually install the app from the apk that you downloaded.

Even if you install the Samsung pay gear manually when you try to lunch it it says "This gear is not compatible"

Change the phone's CSC code to "UK" should be worth a try.
