Z5 Compact, custom ROM android pay - Xperia Z5 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Okay, who can help lol
I simply cannot get AP to work, all safetynet passed however at the POS Android Pay it does not register.
NFS works using the vanilla NFC apps on play store.

I have same problem on official LOS 14.1, all checks passed. Can anyone help, please

Anyone successful yet? I have the same Problem...

similar issue : LOS 14.1 all checks pass , android pay is not reacting in anyway with a POS terminal .
i have seen some posts that there was a bug that was supposedly been fixed (if memory serves me right from nexus forums?) , and i have tried some mods with the bug fix , but no luck .
any help would be greatly appreciated.

Pokemon GO on rooted device

Hey guys,
Since latest update (v0.37.0) of Pokemon Go, rooted devices users are blocked from entering the game. See this article on xda-dev.
The only (known) solution to bypass this is to follow this guide : http://www.androidpolice.com/2016/09/11/guide-play-pokemon-go-0-37-rooted-android-magisk/
BUT...
It seems that flashing Magisk-v6 modifies kernel or something because on Mokee's CM13 ROM, i don't have GPS or internet data anymore.
If i restore boot from TWRP, GPS and internet are working again, but not Magisk.
Is there a CM13 ROM for Kenzo (usable as a daily driver) that works with Magisk?
There is another alternative by chainfire, but need the latest systemless supersu v2.78 SR1!
It is experimental and may not work for everyone.
Also I don't think it works with xposed!

Thanks for your help! Since it won't work with Xposed, i will wait for a stable release.
It's good to see that Chainfire is involved.
That's good news. will give it a shot sometime. If anyone tries it before please let me know what you did and how it went
If this gets a stable release I might give it a try. I'm running official CM13.0 btw.
Okay, latest stable release of CM13 official works perfectly with Magisk-v6 on my Kenzo.
But to play Pokemon Go 0.39, systemless Xposed need to be disabled (so a reboot is needed).
Plus, SafetyNet Helper app returns "false" to the "CTS profile match" test. So i guess Android Pay won't work.
i just stoped playing since they forced me the update
no harse feeling. wasnt fun anymore anyway
was lvl32 and used pokemon go controls to get to the nearest city 25km from my house since there is nothing around me.
i played once a day toke gyms back if they where taken thats all .
anyway i dont miss it to much trouble to get it working no worth it

Max 2 fails SafetyNet, does it have malware?

So I got a Max 2 x829 which came with a case. It's running Android 6.0.1. It fails SafetyNet CTS and Basic Integrity, so does not run Pokemon Go. Is this expected, or did a reseller add malware on the device?
Mine suffers from the same problem. Where did you buy yours?
I wouldn't put much stock in safety net.

What do you mean? Not passing SafetyNet means not being able to play/download some of the best games on the PlayStore. I think it's relevant.
Same here. I'm using cuoco92 ROM. I tried safety net that comes with magisk manager, but it doesn't work. I really doubt that there is malware installed, but I've no idea why it fails...maybe because ROM is rooted?!
Let me think about this... Most people have buy this device from a international reseller shop instead of the official Leeco store or online shop. Makes sense cause I'm pretty sure that most of the users here on the board are not living in China or India.
Every online shop is installing a custom ROM to make sure that as many languages as possible are supported. The most installed "Shop-Rom" is couco92...
As far as we know every Android device that is able to run a custom ROM needs an opened bootloader and especially couco92 comes with the ability to run SuperSU and Root!
If you just search Google for "SafetyNet" you find an official statement why it's not possible to run Banking or
Pay-Apps and why there's no possibility to run games like Pokemon go on rooted devices!!!
So let me think again about this...
Sorry guys but I also don't understand why the hell this device isn't able to pass the SafteyNet check! It must be because of malware or something like this!!!
Sorry for being so damn ironic! Hopefully it's self explaining why I wrote a post like this and you are able to get the informations you are looking for from the text...
Thanks for the answer, albeit the unnecessary sarcasm. Assuming that's true (which sounds quite reasonable) would the original ROM fix the problem? is the original ROM maybe supporting english language? And could anyone confirm such ROM does indeed pass SafetyNet checks? Thanks!
So ended up flashing the last Indian stock ROM. That solved the "basic integrity" check and now I can download from Play Store apps not previously visible. However, still does not pass the CTS check.
I believe such checks are over exaggerated, hackers can hack strongly locked iPhones or anything similar, so it doesn't matter CTS pass or fail as long as you keep your phone fully scanned with reasonable antivirus/security apps.
I think thats because your phone has bootloader unlocked.
This is the reason:
Devices that ship with Google's Play Store and other apps installed must pass Google's Android “Compatibility Test Suite”. Rooting a device or installing a custom ROM prevents a device from being “CTS Compatible”. This is how the SafetyNet API can tell if you're rooted–it merely checks for CTS compatibility. Similarly, if you get an Android device that never came with Google's apps–like one of those $20 tablets shipped direct from a factory in China–it won't be considered “CTS compatible” at all, even if you haven't rooted it.

Heyyo, use the official LineageOS MM ROM. It passes safety net. There's some other ROMs but I'm not sure. I'll try it on Mokee MM build and report back.
RR N fails Safety Net as it is pre rooted and some other tweaks that cause it to fail.
Oh, another reason why it can fail safety net is modem firmware. You might have to revert to a Chinese or Indian or international modem firmware. I don't think developer firmware works for SafetyNet

I can't pass SafetyNet with latest (04/29) LineageOS 13 nightly. I tried with Chinese 23S modem, wipe everything except Internal Storage, and install Open GApps Pico. I still get CTS Profile Mismatch. I tried with it as my Internal ROM under MultiROM, which I believe should be OK. I think it's expected to fail if installed as a Secondary. In any case, I have no particular reason I need to pass SafetyNet, I just thought I'd try. I've read that on newer Android devices, an unlocked bootloader can cause SafetyNet to fail (unless kernel is patched). I didn't try re-locking my bootloader so that could be it.
Heyyo, hmm well I tried ASOP based DU rom but it failed too but then again I'm using MultiRom as well so I'm unsure if that messes with it since it's a custom boot.img which I think is part of the SafetyNet check...

Problem with google app.

Good Morning.
I came here to ask for help for a problem that has been happening to me since 2 weeks ago.
I have a Cubot S200 mt 6582, and have long been using custom roms.
I now use Lineage 6.0.1 R79, and everything was fine until to update the rom, I installed it again.and now I have a problem here.
I can not access any Google app, or even access the mail, as it gives me: device not certified by google.
I have read out there that google has in the playstore now certified devices but I find it strange that badly install the opengapps zip flle, I can not do anything with google.
and stranger, does not seem like anyone complaining about it?
I forgot, IF INSTALLING the original rom kitkat everything works.
If anyone can help, thank you.
thank you

Huawei device "ptrace" implementation issue

Being a no good dirty cheater, I'm a big fan of Game Guardian and I use it with great success on my HTC U11 phone. I recently discovered that it can be used without root, by using a virtualization environment such as Parallel Space or VirtualXposed. As I haven't rooted my M5 (SHT-09), I downloaded Parallel Space and GG and got it all running. However, I've found that I cannot make any edits to game memory space from within GG.
The are a number of posts on the GG forum suggesting that there is a bug (or security feature) in many Huawei device cores / firmware that relates to the implementation of the ptrace system function call. Something in the firmware seems to prevent the GG process from modifying the child process memory space using PTRACE_POKETEXT or PTRACE_POKEDATA.
The suggestion of the developer of GG is to "change the firmware so that there the ptrace system call works normally".
Anyone aware of this "feature" of Huawei device firmwares? Is there / could there be a solution to modify the firmware to "fix" this behaviour?
I saw you posted on my thread. Thanks for that. I wanted to see whether flashing a different kernel like Serenity would help. But i doubt it. Might be worth a try. Would have loved to know that beforehand. :/ Any other ideas? What I am seeing is that it needs a competent developer to recode the Kernel. I would then flash that patch. Other than that it is defined as unfixable. That we'd have to change the device. :/
It's the main reason that I haven't rooted / unlocked the bootloader, as running GG is pretty much all I use root for on other devicxes. And the fact that rooting / boot unlock kills Widevine level 1 support, which is madness on a 2k device like the M5. Wouldn't want Netflix streaming SD content only.
From what I understand, which isn't much, the issue is buried deep down in the kernel. Not sure if a custom kernel would solve the problem or not. Knowing XDA, I'm sure someone will be crazy enough to try it at some point in the future!

Yeah I get that, but some games dont have a cloud feature. Making parallel space useless. Plus I appreciate some other root features. I have a note 8 which should work GG without root, but I'll see how it goes. Oh really, I'm a big time stream fan. I havent tried Netflix with root yet . Should still work tho. I think. Hmm well, problem is all kernels are made for devices like the mate 10 or the P20. Not sure if they will work with the M5, wouldn't want to brick after all the trouble. [Edit, found the nextflix module apk. Can flash that with Magisk. Makes it work again ]

Alright guys, I found this out today (I'm also Kr1msonReaper on GG forums);
Huawei kernel prevents GG from working in Android Oreo HOWEVER-- If you downgrade to Android Nougat, I find that it works perfectly. Hope this helps!
Just a note, when you are, of course, debloating Nougat, make sure to disable Huawei system update app so you don't find yourself in Oreo the next day.

How do you downgrade to nougat? Any reason not to do it? And will I retain root ?
I actually like Nougat more than Oreo as it fixes issues such as the ptrace error and seems to have more battery optimization. It's been a long time since I downgraded to Nougat and since then I got a new phone but here's the tutorial I followed. @mrmazak has helped me out of se sticky situations and his tutorials have never failed me. https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-7x/how-to/guide-honor-7x-flash-oreo-update-t3781649/amp/
I believe you will lose root but you can easily flash magisk again after installing the downgrade package.
Hope this helped!

I am not sure this would work on the Huawei mediapad m5 tablet. As far as I can tell it never had a nougat firmware to rollback too. I looked for sht-w09 and the all the files appear to be for Android 8 and none for 7 nougat. Unless I am missing something??
Other than they locked out ptrace stuff and that it appears unlikely to get Android 9 in the US for my mode l its a pretty good tablet. Maybe I should just sell it and move on to a tab s6 that can be rooted.

Hey! You're right I couldn't seem to find a nougat downgrade. On the bright side, I did find a Pie update for your model. Who knows, maybe ptrace will be fixed in that version?

NFC not working [PE AOSP] [10.0] [MI 9SE GRUS]

Hello everyone, I have a Xiaomi Mi 9SE which is rooted and safetynet check it's Ok. I did have had installed Havoc OS 3.3 and the NFC didn't worked... I've tried to use apps to make payments with nfc and everytime it crashes... Now I've installed a Pixel Experience 10.0 Rom (unofficial) and I have the same problem.. I've searched on Google and I saw many people with the same problem but didn't got a solution so far. Do any of you have an idea on how to fix it? NFC was working ok with the original rom (now I am not able to installit again, everytime I try to flash and boot I got back to TWRP).
Thanks in advance. :good:
@beastball2
You've overwritten phone's Stock ROM., hence you've no chance to install it anymore, unless you backed it up.
This is the price that people who think they must put up a better (?) ROM than that what gets pre-installed by OEM/Carrier pay.
