[Q] Google wallet +NFC with root?

I'm trying to set up my phone to use google wallet and NFC so I can use it to pay for things, but it says unsupported device, and when I click on that, it says it's because I am rooted, and because there's some exploit associated to rooted phones.
I'm ok with that, I just want NFC to work. Is there a workaround so you can still use NFC and wallet when rooted? I've got a 9020a. Thanks
Edit: A lot of people are saying that their phones work just fine even rooted and the message is just a warning, but mine is not working at all. I tried to buy lunch at Jack in the Box the other day and I got stuck there looking like an idiot when it didn't work. I checked and NFC was enabled, so I don't know what the problem is.

Same for me. I'm unable to use Wallet on my phone. I can use the NFC for things like paypal transfers though, so it's not a broken phone.

So I got mine to work today. I returned my device to stock, and it still didn't work. However, I disabled wifi, disabled and re-enabled NFC, and it started to work. Not rooted anymore, but I'll spend what I have in the account and then re-do my root and see if that works with wifi off.
Would you mind trying it rooted with wifi turned off and see if that helps?

What happened to Google wallet?

Did Verizon lock out the tap to pay feature on Google wallet with this last update? I went to set it up after flashing viper and noticed that feature is turned off.

Working fine for me, I just checked it only thing it said was it wasn't working due to an unreliable internet connection (3G) I tapped it and it switched to ready to pay.
Stock Rooted.

Fine here.

Wallet was acting weird for me last time I tried to use it, walked in to the store, turned on NFC, checked wallet, everything looked good to go, got to checkout and wallet all of a sudden said it wasnt the default tap to pay and would not let me use it at all. ISIS has long since been uninstalled, no other tap to pay or even NFC apps installed, had data connection etc. but no dice. Had to run home for my wallet that I originally forgot, pretty frustrating and havent tried it since.

I flashed Viper 3.1.0 when it was released and I noticed the same thing; yesterday I also had problems with Hangouts not signing in.
I remembered in the past that if had issues using any Google app, there was something getting blocked as far as DNS resolution.
I have AdAway installed and figured there might be something wrong with the HOSTS file like in the past.
So I disabled & renabled the creation of a HOSTS file and automagically Google Wallet & Hangouts signed in without a problem.
Do you guys have a custom HOSTS file?
If you do, try recreating it and see what happens.

Problems with GPay

Hello everyone,
Got the problem with GPay yesterday, and cannot resolve it yet.
Performed the clean install of 9.0.2, wiped everything, all is working fine except adding my debit card in GPay.
What happens:
I open GPay app, it shows the card linked to my Google account, and says that i must 'Set up in-store payment'. When i tap the card and enter the CVC code, it starts to load something for an instant, but then just returns to the starting screen of the GPay app. Seems like it can't connect to the bank services.
What i tried:
- Linking this card to my wife's GPay - works fine.
- Linking my wife cards to my GPay - fails as mine.
- Flashing different official ROMs - 8.1.0, 9.0.1, 9.0.2.
- Wiping everything, locking bootloader etc.
- Setting the phone anew with a fresh new Google account - GPay returns an error with 'OR-TAPSH-15' code. Google does not show any info about it.
- Talking to tech support of my bank and Google - they only say that my firmware is or was modified and cannot help me because of that.
It seems that I wiped something that I shouldn't. I thought about EFS at first, but the wi-fi and cellular data works fine, and IMEI is shown right.
Maybe there's something that i miss, or there are some thoughts about this situation?

Check playstore/ settings scroll down to the bottom to see if playstore is certified. If not and you still have a locked bootloader Wipe playstore data to become certified.
If you have an unlocked bootloader you need to flash magisk then Erase playstore data to become certified.

I cannot get GP certified, it is not or it shows nothing about it.
At local russian forum another person encountered the same situation after full wipe, but he's got a xiaomi

Thanks for your attention, the resolution was really blunt
Just had to switch phone to russian, and it worked allright.
Never expected that =)

Dude you just made my day. I had been battling with the same problems with GPay for past 2 days on my new Pixel 3... Tried just about everything. Switching to Russian, doing all GPay setup and then switching back to English finally resolved everything. If I could buy you a beer - I would

It's not me who you should say thanks =)

I know it's an old topic, but after upgrading at Android 10 yesterday I lost my Revolut card from Google pay and there is no way to set-up again the in store payments.
Anyone found any new solutions?

Google pay on Ultra

Hello,
Is gpay working for you? Tried with gpay open - no reaction when holding near the bank terminal. Tried from home screen - the same. Previous devices like s9, note9 worked fine. Now I cannot find the reason

Turn on NFC?

Nfc is on, and it works, tried with bank card reading

Found out that other nfc apps are not working too. Seems that it is nfc problem with third party apps

I'm having an issue with google pay where it keeps telling me I moved the phone too fast. even though it hasn't moved. I haven't been able to get it working as of yet.

note 20 ultra google pay and nfc doesnt work

works for me. i have the N986U.

Same issue, tried everything. Hoping next OTA fixes it, otherwise I'm servicing the phone.

Has anyone here managed to fix a broken Google Pay on the N9860?
I contacted Google Pay support and they're saying the configuration appears ok but the terminals aren't communicating back to the phone. I have tried changing the secure element to all three options, removing and adding the cards again. This all worked on my previous Note 8 so it seems to be a problem with the N9860 and not my cards/banks.

Google Pay not working fix
Hi
If your Google pay isn't working try these 2 options:
1. Uninstall google pay and re-add the payment method (card) even if you already see the card is there
2. I think this is most probably issue:
When you go to NFC settings in your Samsungs settings not Google Pay app, you'll see "tap and pay",this option will be activated as your nfc is on,tap on the writting and on the bottom of the screen you will see 2 options,left is Payment and right is Others. Tap on "others" and you'll see 2 options: first is Nearby(tap 2 phones to transfer photos/data) and 2nd is Google Pay,make sure that is SELECTED.
Once I selected that option, Google Pay worked.
I contacted Google before, but their brilliant support team and account specialists couldn't figured it out

Another fix... None of the above worked for me and Google support couldn't help either.
I had my giffgaff SIM in slot 1, tried all sorts of stuff for weeks and nothing worked. Eventually I put an O2 SIM into slot 2 and added my cards, problem solved! After a successful transaction, I was then able to remove the O2 SIM and just leave the giffgaff one in and it still works.
I don't know if the problem was the giffgaff SIM, the slot it was in or something else but I honestly tried the above and so much more to no avail. If you're having issues, try swapping SIM slots or put a second SIM in.

Issues with Google Pay in the UK.

Hi I have my 3 bank cards set up with Google Pay and although everything set up fine & looks ok in the app I am unable to make payments using the phone.
I have tried in 3 different shops & keep getting an error, it's a big circle with an exclamation mark with text underneath saying "That didn't work"
I thought it must have been an issue with the terminal, but I have tried in other stores and have the exact same issue on all 3 cards from different banks.
I did have a message pop up a few days after the first attempt saying my phone can now be used to make payments. But I am still getting the same error.
Has anyone come across this error before?
Hard to tell if the issue lies with my bank, Google or Xiaomi hardware.

Settings > network connections> tap and pay > choose hce wallet.
Go to manage app and clear cache for Google pay, Google play service and Google services framework.
Restart phone and set up Google pay again.

Thanks for the tip, I'll give this a try

Still no luck on this.
Gonna have to try a factory reset I think.

I'm using this phone with Google Pay in the UK, had no issues myself. I didn't have to make any settings changes, etc.
(I got my unit from Xiaomi UK)

you can try this.

I am having the same problem (in Italy). I setup everything ang Google Pay tells me that everything is ok, but then when I try to pay a red exclamation mark appears. I tried to enable HCE, uninstall and reinstall Google Pay but no luck. What can I do? @jusumgeezer did you by chance debloat something or have you tried a factory reset?

Just FYI, a factory reset fixed the issue for me, I tried this morning and it worked on the first try!

Hi,
Quick update on this.
I managed to get it sorted with a factory reset.
After resetting I skipped past adding the Google account & went in to the app settings & enabled all permissions for Google pay & disabled any MIUI optimization.
I also did the same for my banking apps before logging in.
After that I was able to add my cards to Google Pay without any issues, following the normal process & now everything works fine with 3 cards added.
