Does Mi 8 Global Version NFC work with GPay (Android Pay)? I'm in the UK.
Good question, does it?
Google Pay won't work with an offical xiaomi rom neither official global stable nor china stable or beta and so on ...
This is due to xiaomi's roms doesnt support google pay in their roms.
You'll need a costum rom that offically support google pay like xiaomi.eu.
I'm using xiaomi.eu beta on my Mi8 and i can confirm it works great with this rom in Germany even with magisk root.
Global beta wont work
I tried to use GPay in Germany with official Global MI8. It seems to work, but my financial institution doesn't support this nice feature
Can someone confirm or not that it will work _safetynet pass_ with global rom and Magisk hide enabled ?

Will be really surprised if it doesn't work. Mi 6 with global ROM works perfectly fine for GPay.
Will try out with a Mi 8 next week for GPay and update you whether it works or not.
Google Pay and nfc both work on the global stable (OEAMIFD) version 9.6.7

Which bank card does it work for you?
I get the following error message (Visa -DKB):
Pay could not be activated because the phone was rooted or changed in a similar way

Is android pay working for anyone else?
When I try to add a credit card, it says
Android Pay can't be used on this device
This may be because your device is rooted, has an unlocked bootloader, or is running a custom ROM. As a result, Google can't confirm that your device meets Android Pay's security standards.
I just got phone today and haven't done anything to the device as far as the FW or root.
It's on MIUI Global 8.0 Stable 8.0.8.0.0
Thanks for any help provided.
Happy Holidays.
You have a vendor rom.
Theres no global rom for the mix, only China Stable, Dev and an unofficial eu.
It looks like it's MAHCNDI which I think I can get an update for here. But I understand what you mean by the vendor rom.

Does anyone else have any problems w/ android pay on the normal EU ROM?
Under the default wallet in settings, it shows Mi Wallet or Use HCE Wallet.
and Tap & Pay, the payment default is Android Pay but no other options.
Anyone else have any issues?
I'm using EU rom (6.12.8) now. When I tried to use Android Pay, the app said that it cannot be activated on this device because it seems to be "rooted, bootloader unlocked and/or using custom ROM".
Changing default wallet in settings doesn't make any differences.

What do you mean by a Vendor ROM? It literally says MIUI global, there isn't any Chinese bloatware, and it automatically has the play store installed.
I am using China Stable and Android Pay is reporting the same message.
Same on miui global 8.2
The only way is to install custom ROM with Magisk hide and Xiaomi Fix
there is no chance to get a workaround to relock the bootloader in a chinese device running global rom?
Probably not.... Maybe someone make a hack... but I had Yotaphone and there was option to install RU (global) rom - problem was only with no supporting bands and hacked baseband to partially fix it. But here is the problem... damn bootloader - maybe some one will be able to hack and replace vitaminised bootloader with official ?
Development is still weak, we do not have kernel source code, which is a bit difficult but it should appear in the future.
well someone has found a workaround for the Mi Mix 2S?

I also bought chnina version with global rom and unlocked bootloader
Misled by the seller showing large photo with official global rom, but in description with small lethers:
OS ------------ MIUI, Unlocked Bootloader, Official Global ROM, China Version, Support OTA Update.
(Inquiry is necessary if want to reflash firmware)
I`m still waiting delivery, but after I red what I bought I start looking for solution for relock bootloader with Global Rom. So far, no one manage to make it. As @gugugrp said, we have to wait for solution in future (how long, no one knows).
I have one question too, is it posible OTA Update of the global rom already instaled without locking bootloader?
Hi, why do you want to relock BL with global rom?
I have a CN version with unlocked BL and global rom, but it seems useless to me to lock it, or not?

Some apps don`t work at all or don`t work properly or need third party apps to work. Also, if you use the phone as work one, you would prefer OTA update This is my persional opinion of course. If you are about to use custom roms and to play with the phone, it is beter to leave it unlocked.
The problem is not the unlocked bootloader, but the fact that the MiUI 9 stable play store is not sertificated for this deviece... . You also have OTA with the official global and unlocked bootloader.

Google pay does not work with unlocked bootloader for sure (as far as I know). I red some threads for worckaround with third party apps, but....at your own risk. I`m not a dev, just wanted simple phone with OTA update and decently security. If the problem is only in MIUI 9 and when MIUI 10 Global Official comes out fixes this, I`ll be ok, but anyway...would like to know I can lock bootloader with global rom
That would be my exact question in 12 days. Let me know if you know
Same situation for me, using the Chinese Rom instead which allows to lock the bootloader. I will move to the global one when (or if) this could be done...

I doubt xiaomi will ever rollback on the policy, however if the certification on google play is what u are concerned about, installing an older version of magisk and using the universal magisk patcher can mask the unlocked bootloader

As I said I am using the chinese ROM to avoid having the bootloader unlocked. Therefore I had to install the google play myself . Inside the google play settings, the play protect certification field says: Device is not certified.
I found somewhere that this is the reason why NFC payments do not work.
Do you think that the trick with the magisk old version will fix this?
Other than this the Chinese ROM version is working perfect!
Hello XDA community,
I've bought a mi 8 on aliexpress, chinese phone, unlocked bootloader, global rom, i want to use google pay, but it doesn"t work. Couldit work with magisk manager? Does it hide also the unlocked bootloader to google? And how cani install magisk manager
Thank you

The problem is not the bootloader but the play store is not sertificated on the Global. Xiaomi.eu does not have this problem.

So i have to flash another rom?
I have Cn version with opend bootloader and Global rom. No problem with Google Play Store.
I think he is talking about Google PAY, not google play.
In my case, CN with unlocked bootloader, 8.8.30 Beta Global. Google Pay doesn't work.
Imma trying installing twrp and magisk and tell u later.
Be careful. I got global version of mi 8 + locked bootloader and with MIUI 10 global beta Google pay/play store certificate does not work as well...need to go back to global stable or wait for MIUI 10 global stable.

Ok, try to install Netflix via play store. Can you? I wasn't been able to do it with global miui 9.5.13.0 and 9.6.1.0.
I'm talking exactly for the play store. Your device is not sertificated, and that's why you have problems with some specific apps like Netflix and Google pay. I was with global miui 9, global beta MiUI 10, and xiaomi.eu 8.8.16/24/30. I know what I'm talking about.
My phone is Chaina version with unlocked bootloader.
I don't have problems with Netflix or Google pay, and my Google play is sertificated with all the xiaomi.eu ROMs I used my phone with.
Imo, Xiaomi.eu is more official than the official global, and it also have better support. Everything is working as it should. The best from the CN and Global + some more tweaks.
It's a big mess with Xiaomi ROMs right now.
Best regards! Take care, since you can brick your phone.

Everything is working fine with xiaomi.eu rom, if something fail its your fault.
Safety Test is false because its libraries are out of date, try "SafetyNet 'attest' works great and its safe. google pay is also in play store and works fine, i paid two days ago the last time with it.
Maybe google pay isnt rolled out in your region yet?
Even root with magisk doesn't break Google pay or play store certification.
Thank you,
So it's my first post, should i close it?

Google Pay does not work because of the root, Raiffeisen bank app also. I use Google pay and Raiffeisen bank app in another country with xiaomi.eu 8.8.30 without any problem. You need to hide the root, if you want to use these apps. I can't tell you how to hide the root, I don't use it and I don't need it.
Hide it with magisk manager, and it will work fine
Hello everyone,
Xiaomi shocking me a Little bit offering a Special EEA Rom for the Mi 9 in Europe.
I am a Long time Xiaomi user. My last device was the Mi Mix 2 from wich i cam from to the Xiaomi Mi 9.
Overall its a great phone, especially the Hardware parts.
But i am not happy About that there is no EEA Global Beta Version available.
So i thinking about to unlock my Mi9 an flashing the Global Beta und relock the Bootloader after that. (Xiaomi.eu is no Option)
Does somebody had some expierience with that?
The Points are:
- Is it possible to relock the Bootloader after the Flash from EEA Global Stable to Global Beta via miflash or does this brick the phone?
- Is Widevine L1 available on the phone after the Flash from EEA Global Stable to Global Beta?
-Whats are other difficults? Means wich are the generell dificullts between EEA Global Stable and "normal" Global?
Thank you very much for your advices!
already answered the question, read ?
https://forum.xda-developers.com/Mi-9/help/eea-stable-global-stable-t3916135
I'm wondering this too, but I want to go from EEA stable to Global ROM stable and then lock the bootloader. I don't think anyone has attempted this yet.

me, I install the version dev global and re-lock the bootloader without problem. I think this is possible also with the stable version.
I did it boys ?
Nearly **** in my pants at first boot, but it worked.
Widevine L1 is there anymore.
I flashed 9.22.3 (only getable Fastboot beta) gpay doesn't work and play store wasn't certificated.
After update to 9.2.4. gpay work with PayPal and play store doesn't show anymore a certification.
Tomorrow I will test if payments really work.
@meuhmeuh51 , wats up with your payments and certification in play store?
Where do you get new Beta updates, is it also OTA like in Stable?

nicpas said:
yes, i did.
But i dont see any Benefits with it at the Moment.
Play store ist not certified anyway and with locked Bootloader you cant patch safety net.
But before the massage came that ist not certificated i could bind my PayPal with gpay.
So now i will test today in a shop or supermarket if payments will really work.

Yes. I did relock the Bootloader. "Flash all and lock" via Miflash.
But i dont see any Benefits with the re-lock. Cause PlayStore is not certified. And with locked bootlaoder you cant patch that via magisk (safety net).
But before playstore Show that is not certified i could bind my PayPal with gpay.
Now i will test today in a Supermarket if payments will really work.

I am interested in getting a Mi 11 Ultra, just wanted to know if this would still be a good choice now in Feb 2022. Seems like I can only get my hands on a CN version with Global Rom loaded. I will be using it in Canada. The 5G bands don't really matter to me, as long as the LTE is working I'm ok. However, I have concerns that not all features may work, such as google pay, which i use very frequently. Can anyone confirm whether or not the CN version vs the global version is the same, and whether these features will work for me in Canada?
CHeers
I'm in the US using the Mi11 ultra with the Xiaomi EU ROM on the ATT network that I flashed over the Global ROM. I use Google Pay and all the apps I have used on non import phones. The Global ROM was less usable for me, for instance I couldn't sync my galaxy watch with the phone. I believe I got Google Pay working with the Global ROM but I had far more failed transactions. In short I have found this phone to deliver what I want with the eu.rom.
i am using the global rom on t-mobile in boston. after rooting everything works fine including google pay
great, i've also read that the EU rom is more usable than the global one. I may jump on it and root it as well as use the EU one.
I'm running China version with EU weekly Rom on t-mobile rooted. Everything is flawless

If u want to use gpay or some banking app that check phone's unlock status, just root it with magisk and use safetynet fix module

I have a Mi 11 Ultra CN version unlocked and flashed to .EU ROM. It has worked great, and supports NFC payments and Netflix Widevine L1. I am not rooted, but I have heard plenty of times that you can root just fine and use a root hider (safetynet fix) from the payments apps to retain NFC payment capability.
I Just got mine a week ago and switched to ATT but am una le to activate the sim card and am getting no service. Anything special I need to do? Thanks for the help.
Working great with Bell as well as Fido. Have used Google pay in past , was working fine (only used bcoz applied for replacement card, not a gpay fan). Using EU ROM. I got it from pdaplaza when it released so i got CN version.
Even today in my opinion its good for buying as i like its rearview screen. Using from more than 1 year and Satisfied with its performance.
