Google Pay and Safetynet with unlocked bootloader? - Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC Questions & Answers

I went through multiple posts, with Xiaomi.eu and RR, but can't find a concrete answer. I bought my X3 mainly for Google Pay. Does here have an unlocked bootloader/Xiaomi.eu/Custom ROM and can confirm that Google Pay works and Safetynet passes? It worked on my Poco F1, but I'm not sure if X3 is not part of the hardware attestation.

Google pay works on any rom with this man

I have resurrection ROM and GPay works fine.
Banking apps however are more fussy and detect the unlocked bootloader (I think) and don't work.

I have MiNote 10, xiaomi.eu ROM, and GooglePay works with no problem, I have also POCO X3, this Friday will pass 7 days, so I will unlock my bootloader and I will test it in shop.
on MiNote10 with xiaomi.eu ROM my banking App detects Root, even Magisk Hide didn't work, so I don't have root, as I don't need it badly, and App is working with unlocked bootloader.

Google pay will not function with unlocked bootloader, magisk root required

Is there an easy way to relock the bootloader so I can use android pay?

I've searched around but all i've come up with are some fastboot commands that didn't work. I recently upgraded to nougat using an ruu from the collections post. It unrooted my phone but I still have s-off and an unlocked bootloader. I think this is why it still isn't passing the security check? Anyone else had success with this?
I use Magisk for root and (recently) the HTC 10 SafetyNet module and I can use Android Pay fine. As far as I know Magisk Hide tells SafetyNet the bootloader is locked and everything else is OK. So I would recommend you go whole hog and put TWRP and Magisk on and you should be fine until SafetyNet gets updated again.
I'll even give you links.

Thanks!
Worked like a charm! I had tried magisk before but the hide didn't work. Same this time, but with the safety net fix it's perfect!

Will the device pass safetynet with unlocked bootloader without magisk?

I stopped rooting my phones for some time. So I'm not really sure on how things work now. I'll be receiving my 8T(KB2001) tomorrow. I just want to unlock the bootloader before setting up the device so that I can just flash the official twrp(when it comes) without clearing data. I just want to know if the device passes safetynet till I flash twrp and magisk? I use Google pay and other bank apps regularly so it's important for me. Also, generally how long does it take for an unofficial/official stable twrp to be available?
Tl;dr - Can I use Google pay with unlocked bootloader without magisk?
Doubtful

About Google Pay, I think you can use Google pay on unlocked bootloader without Magisk, But with Magisk installed and MagiskHide enabled you can definitely use Google Pay without any problem. I have used Google Pay with magisk. And Once i forgot to add Google Pay into magiskhide list but able to use without any problem. So dont worry about GPay.
But there is big catch for other banking apps, they will detect unlocked bootloader and refuse to run which can be bypass 100% using MagiskHide. Been using phonepe, paytm , and other official banking apps ( upi too ) without any problem. ( AFAIK had trouble with Sbi pay only) All others are working fine.
Device will pass safetynet once you enable MagiskHide after installing Magsik Canary. ( by default its off , you need to turn on manually after first run) And new magisk supports with Different App name so apps can not detect Magisk as app.
But biggest disadvantage of unlocking bootloader on Oneplus device is you will lose widevine level 1, it will set to L3 instead of L1 if you unlock bootloader, So basically you will lose HD in netflix,prime and other streaming apps which uses widevine. ( No effect on local hd playing using file,or youtube)
Best luck
It will not pass safety net. I checked that just now before enabling magisk hide and renaming the app. Google Pay will not work with the unlocked bootloader, even without having the magisk manager app installed. Samsung Pay worked fine on my watch with only the bootloader unlocked.
I can also confirm this. I had unlocked the bootloader the day I got my 8T and was surprised to see Google Pay not working. It started working fine after I rooted and hide it in Magisk.

I know I'll lose widevine L1 but I really don't care about that. I also know that I can use Magiskhide to keep them working but I just wanted to wait till the twrp is available. I was just wondering if I can manage without Magiskhide for some time. But looks like I have root now for them. Thanks for the reply :good:

Ahh that sucks! Thanks for confirming btw.
I am passing safetynet with magisk root on US KB2005 11.0.1.2KB05AA. I can open Pay without any issues but have not fully set it up yet. If I recall on my last HTC with Root it threw an error immediately when opening. I will give it a shot later today.

Same, except I have fully set up Google Pay with my accounts and the app opens up and everything seems to be okay. I have not actually attempted to pay using it yet however.

Maybe and maybe not. Look here as example:

This question is relate to SafetyNet. If you can pass SafetyNet, you can have working NFC.
Pass SafetyNet on xiaomi.eu ROM
NOTE: These steps may no longer be necessary on latest xiaomi.eu builds. Check for SafetyNet status first (preferably with an app other than Magisk Manager). While the xiaomi.eu ROM for the X3 Pro is patched against bootloader status detection...

In all the comments no one knows if its works or not, may differ to one to another. I want to flash DotOS but Google Pay is essential and I want to be sure its works, sad!

You can relock bootloader with proper MIUI.
But even with unmodified MIUI, or even if you didn't unlock bootloader, you can still have faulty NFC. So you can't make sure, only try and error.
Life is just like this.

Question Poco X3 pro saftynet with eu rom

Now magisk is much complicated for me now days and I don't want to root my phone
I have indian version poco X3 pro I flashed eu rom but saftynet failed. so can I lock bootloader with eu rom and this will fix saftynet failed issue fixed .
I don't want to root my phone and magisk method is looking complicated now days so that option is not my choice so plz help me with that
Locking the bootloader means phone gets forced to boot into ROM what was pre-installed.
I think eu rom should have resolved the safetynet, you should ask in the eu rom forums.
From my limitted knowledge, if you re-lock you must only flash the same ROM that your phone was sold with, or you'll have a brick...
Unless I'm mistaken, once re-locked even EDL will not be available, so it would be hard brick.
Don't do that unless you know exactly what you're doing.
Try at your own risk though, I heard new xiaomi devices don't allow people to lock their phone, even if you want to the fastboot will simply not let you do it. On slightly older xiaomi device, it does let you lock the phone but good chance that you are stuck with that rom because you can't unlock it.

Lock Bootloader without Data Loss?

Not sure if it's possible to re-lock the Bootloader without loosing all data.
As more and more apps stopped working with some 'security warning' and finding it more and more difficult to run certain banking and other applications I decided to 'unroot' my Poco F2 Pro.
But, too bad, some Apps still complain about 'security issues' or explicitly about the unlocked bootloader - but now there is no MAGISK Hide or similar to 'cheat the system'
But, even worse, according to many posts in various forums locking the BL will erase all data.
Any idea if it's possible?
Thanks!

Unroot the phone before flashing rom.
Phone is unrooted and updated with latest Stock, so I want to re-lock the BL.
As too many apps fail working with Magisk installed, and it's a constant search for work-arounds, I decided to stay unrooted. But many apps still fail because of the unlocked BL

You can flash without losing data(use update scrip in the zip rom or twrp) and have a working phone(certified) without locking the bootloader and these roms are better than stock(choice between android 11 or 12).
Got it! Thanks!

No it's not possible to re-lock the bootloader without losing your data.
Installing a Xiaomi.eu ROM will still have things complain about an unlocked bootloader, so isn't much of a solution.
try use latest Magisk (24.3) activate zygisk and set deny list all apps that cause problem..
plus install module safetynet-fix 2.2.1 ..
