Activate Android Pay on a rooted phone

I'm on M3 rooted with Despair kernel.
Got Android pay update and tried to activate it by adding a credit card information. It bailed out saying that my phone can't be trusted, I figured out that's because of root.
I tried to unroot in SuperSu. First by disabling Enable Superuser root button, second by Full unroot. Both methods didn't work, Android pay still couldn't be activated.
I then tried to format and flash boot, system, recovery MPA44I images. I started to get a RED message your phone can't be trusted on boot. Android pay still couldn't be activated. NOTE: I didn't erase data partition.
I don't want to do a full factory reset.
What are my options now ?

Paying with money.
(Just joking, forgive me. I just got a message of the bank that we have to pay for nfc paying)

Same here. Nexus 6, latest chroma build, rooted, bootloader unlocked, using xposed RootCloak and the No Device Check modules. No dice.

Is there any way to revert back to the old Google Wallet?

Go to the Android Pay app info, and uninstall updates. This will roll it back into Google Wallet. You should also go and uninstall the new wallet app if you have it so as to avoid confusion.
After that, I had to find an APK site that could update my wallet app back up to Version 9.0. I've since disabled auto-updates to the Google Wallet app until I see some signs of support for root.

I'm unlocked, rooted, and running Xposed w/ Android Pay setup and have had no issues...

Have you actually been able to make a purchase? I got everything setup and activated but received an error message when I tried to use it. I then disabled root and rebooted to try the payment again. Did not get the error message this time but the transaction did not complete.

I made a payment this morning using Pay without a problem.

Weird since Google has already announced on the complaints in GPS that currently Development Builds and Rooted Devices are not supported. Is Xposed Masking root for you?

Have you tried to make a purchase? @ethan.r.besbris was the only one I know of that has successfully purchased something with root. I too have everything installed but the vending machine and whole foods today gave me errors when actually trying a transaction. I am trying to figure out what the difference is. As of now I do not have Xposed installed.

Android Pay Issue with Root

Hey Guys,
I have an original (2013) Moto X 1060 (Verizon) that I rooted using this method. http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x/general/moto-x-root-pogress-60-t3071602 It's been working great with no problems until today when my phone decided to update my google wallet app to the new android pay. Whenever I try to add a card to android pay I'm getting the error "Android Pay Cannot be used...... Google is unable to verify that your device or the software running on it is android compatible."
Googling has led me t believe that this is an error related to the app detecting root. I tried both of these methods, but neither has worked. http://bit.ly/1LnwzAZ http://bit.ly/1LnwEog . I've tried each separately with rebooting in between as well as trying them together all to no avail.
Other than following the guide above the only root-related things I have modified on the phone are the removal of some verizon apps via titanium backup and adding the following xposed module: "NoSafeVolumeWarning".
One thing that I noted was when I uncheck "Enable Superuser" inside of SuperSu 2.46 it displays a message saying "Uninstall Failed !" It still displays the "Superuser is disabled and hidden" underneath the box and if i enable it again and disable it it does not pop up with the uninstall failed message. Does this have something to do with write protection?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
Adam

Having the exact same issue. Just upgraded to 5.1 today, xposed Rootcloak as well as No Device Check installed. Also tried Disable SU. Still get the same issue.

Same. I tried uninstalling SU, Hide My Root, and Rootcloak...nothing has worked. Found out today that the app updated when I went to buy something at Walgreen's. How ****ing embarrassing is that?

So I have not yet found a solution to this and am still hoping someone has one. In the mean time, you can install this app http://www.apk4fun.com/share/7185/ (doesn't need to be from this site, it's just an old version of google wallet, and the one I used), go into settings>apps>google play services>manage data clear all data, and reboot. I just tried it at cub foods and it worked fine, but of course you do have to go into the app first, and I had to disconnect it from the app store with titanium backup so it wouldn't update to android pay again.

Was able to get Amex card working after uninstalling Xposed. However, I think I'm going to pass on Android Pay until they allow pin codes on the app, not the phone.

Same problem, few apps frozen with TiBu and xposed installed. Any other work around? s

check to see if your phone allows pin codes to be deactivated at times. I have mine set to not be used at home work and if I am carrying the phone. It is quite useful feature in settings Lockscreen but I am on COS 12.1 OnePlus basically CM

I haven't tried it yet, but I think they only way we'll get this working on root is to install it on stock unrooted, back it up with TiB or Helium, root and then reinstall/restore.

Lots of fail here as well. All the tricks you all listed + some others. It seems there is a lack of consistency for those that resolved. Some just say disabling root, uninstall busybox, uninstall xposed, rootcloak, device checker for play services, etc.
Nothing yet has worked for me. Luckily I backed up Wallet just before taking the update, so I may go back until the community has a solution.

I'm in the same boat. Couldn't get AP to work. Just loaded up the previous version of Wallet. Now have two wallet apps, but whatever. Both appear to be working.

Has anyone tried to get Android Pay working by re-locking the bootloader and temp unrooting on a Nexus device (say, a tablet), then getting AP up and running, and then checking to see if it was usable on your other device(s)??....I was curious if Android Pay would work on ALL of your devices once it was set up properly. Working with lock, unlocking, rooting, etc. is much easier on a Nexus than it would be to work on a Moto, or similar.
Does this make any sense?

Gmail and Exchange - Accounts vanish from device

Hi all,
Wondering if anyone else is running into this. I installed the Exchange Services APK from apkmirror, and was able to get Gmail to support exchange accounts. However, after a period of time, the account vanishes from the device. I found some threads on the S6 forum where this also occured, but can't seem to locate a solution anywhere. Anyone have any ideas? I've tried all the usual suspects such as clearing data/cache, etc. No luck. Running stock 5.1.1 on a 920i.
Thanks.

Oh, good! I'm seriously glad that I'm not the only person this happens to. Perhaps if we compare notes, we can isolate the issue.
I'm running an OH6 firmware (stock for the n920i) and had package disabler pro disabling a bunch of things (but nothing that I wasn't disabling when the problem did NOT occur on either an 'a' or 'c' variant.) I've also tried with the gm.exchange apk installed as a user app and as a system app.
Most recently, I tried it with package disabler pro completely removed from the device to see if that matters. (I'm now rooted and can use titanium backup to disable bloat.) Same results.
I've also tried with samsung's exchange support disabled and enabled (it didn't matter.)
I'm almost considering to just use samsung's email program for the exchange server and gmail for .. well.. gmail. I'd rather that both accounts are accessible from the same program, but I'm not willing to use my gmail account from the samsung program (as it doesn't support advanced gmail functionality that I need.)

Had the same problem. Went back to using k9. Would love to find a solution.

That's based on Tmobile's N920TUVU1BOH6. Do you know if anyone else running that firmware is using exchange via gmail - and if it's working or not?

I have the same issue until i install the com.google.android.gm.exchange_5.0.101238867-502287_minAPI19(nodpi).apk

Well, if anyone actually did wish me luck, it seems it might be working. With 5.0.101238867 (likely taken a nexus marshmallow RELEASE image), I've now been 24 hours without losing the gmail exchange account.
However, I am noticing another problem: On my phone, I can't edit any of the contacts sync'd via google's exchange. I can view them, but there doesn't seem to be any mechanism to edit them with Samsung's contacts apk. (The option to edit is there, but when I select it, I can't actually change anything.)
Edit: If I sync the contacts with Samsung's activesync/exchange support, I can edit the contacts... so this might just be a case of gmail contact sync being incompatible with samsung contact sync. In order to edit the contacts sync'd with gmail's exchange support, I have to install the google contacts apk from a nexus device running 5.1.x (or from apk mirror.)

Strictly speaking, you don't need root to install the firmware - but you will trip KNOX when you install TWRP or Philz CWM (which is the only way I'm aware of to get the 't' system on a non-t variant.)

Disabling the knox software won't prevent the knox fuse (or flag) from being tripped if/when you flash a custom recovery.
However, the knox software will stop working once the fuse/flag is tripped.

I have no idea if it's good or bad for you and your circumstances.

I ended up giving up on Gmail and finding a better solution anyway. Aqua Mail can be made to look almost exactly like Gmail, so I went that route and it works perfectly. I also like the additional customization it allows for. Also, Boxer has a nice Gmail clone that Cyanogenmod is using that looks promising as well.

Is root worth it? What do I lose?

As the title says...I'm considering doing root in my V2. I just got my replacement note an hour ago. I immediately paused the update because I read somewhere on here that once you update, you won't be able to root. I was looking forward to root till I started thinking about what types of abilities I would actually lose by rooting?
What I can think of from the top of my head is:
1) No Samsung/Android pay
2) Some games won't let you play if you're rooted.
3) Some games won't let you play if you have xPosed installed (such as Marvel Future Fight)
4) Can't do software updates to make my phone faster/fix anything that is wrong (can't I just install the software updates after installing root? Or will that just remove the root?)
5) Voids warranty
Anything else I might lose?
I'm excited for xPosed cause I need me some modules such as snapprefs, and youtube playing in the background. I also like having the ability to change things around the device and such
Is there a way to get around the "xPosed detected" in those types of games by the way?

Luckily for you, the current root does not trip knox
1) Samsung pay will not work, but with right xpose set up Android pay will. The good news is if you ever go back to stock, Samsung pay will work again (knox not tripped)
2) Some games indeed will not work, but with the right xpose app you can fix this by hiding root from it.
3)I did not know that! They getting fancy now...but I can see reason why. I guess no Marvel Future Fight for you if you have xposed than. I know you can hide root from apps, not sure you can hide xposed from apps.
4)You cannot do software update, this is true. The run around for this is to wait for a developer, or even Jovy do a deodex of the new update and you can install that while keeping your old bootloader (for root to work). There is a possible downside to this...samsung is known to make their software run very funny if you are not on the corresponding bootloader. P.S. I never recommend taking a software update while you are rooted (assuming it will even install depending on what you have frozen or block). Just dont risk it.
5) TECHNICALLY your warranty will not be voided with current root method. Knox not tripped = Warranty in place.
As you can see, you are not really loosing much.

Root cloak fixes every problem with root.

Help with uninstalling xposed please

I have xposed installed without a custom recovery by using Flashfire but Flashfire doesn't seem to be working without the paid version and I can't pay for it now because the app closes down for non paid users and the only way to pay for it is through getting onto the app. Can anyone help me out with this predicament? Is there any way for me to flash xposed uninstaller without flashfire or is there a way I can get flashfire pro that you know of? I can't make a custom recovery.

But you managed to use Flashfire to install Xposed?
So what changed between installing Xposed and now trying to uninstall it? Any new apps installed that might interfere with Flashfire?

Sorry, I should have added more detail I wrote this late at night.
I have an S7 and I'm using stock Marshamallow. Basically, you can use flashfire to flash the xposed installer zip and install exposed and when you want to uninstall it you just have to flash the uninstall zip and so on. I usually repeat this about once every 3 months to log in / out of Snapchat. However, Flashfire no longer works for non paying customers and the only way to become a paying customer is to get onto the Flashfire app and pay for pro. But, as soon as you open up the Flashfire app it checks for pro and closes down when it detects you aren't a pro member. So I'm stuck at the minute and have no way of uninstalling it without wiping my phone which I can't do yet. I was wondering if anyone knew a work around for this problem.

That's right... The freeloader time bomb went off a couple of weeks ago.
I believe some users have had success with setting their device time back to the end of March and then purchasing Pro.

Free loader lol. I didn't know the app even had a pro version I have only ever used it for a few seconds to flash a zip. They could have sent out a warning and earned a few extra £ ?. Do you have a link or guide to something that shows me how to roll back date and get onto flash fire to buy pro? I'm very amateurish on this I have no idea how I haven't bricked my phone yet. I'll have to put a back up on my pc. If I brick my phone how would I fix that by the way? Just factory reset from pressing the pin in and then get the back up from pc?

Anyone?

You can usually change the time and date in the Android settings.
For help and info on how to keep your device up and running, it's usually best to look for info in your device's forum. There's usually a guide section with stickied collections of info to use.

Thanks, I've worked out how to use date, anyone have a link or something on how to find the correct flash fire apk I need? I can't find anything on Google

You know that XDA has a pretty nifty search function as well, right?
