Does Google pay work with a custom ROM/root? - LG V30 Questions & Answers

It looks like it should with Magisk, but I can't seem to get it to work. I have pay hidden, using magisk 17.1 and passing safety net. It sticks at card verification. It says "verifying with bank", then kicks me to the payment screen where it says "verification needed". Clicking on that gives me a momentary waiting circle, but nothing else happens. I've tried it with 2 different cards. US998, RR oreo 8.1.

That's not an issue with Pay. If Magisk was being blocked by root/unlocked bootloader, you would get a message when you first fire up Pay that your phone can't be verified so "Google Pay can't run on this device".
Have you contacted your bank to make sure they support it? If it's not being verified with your bank, sounds like you need to call them. For the last few years, my bank didn't. It wasn't until this past year that they actually allowed it.

I'm not sure what the issue was. It wasn't with the bank(s). I was having the same issue with all the cards I tried. Eventually did a wipe and it worked.

Well that's weird. Glad it's working though! :good:

After installing Google Pay, hide it using Magisk Hide, and Hide Magisk Manager in Magisk Settings. Then remove phone permission from Google Play Services and Play Store. Now you can register Pay on your rooted phone. After registration is complete, you should allow phone permission to Play Services and Play Store. This trick works always, I've tested with multiple custom roms with and without selinux enforcing.

If we want to reuse root features should we give phone permissions again ?
If we want to use Google pay again later should we re hide magisk and permissions ?

Phone permissions have nothing to do with root features, I didn't exactly understand what do you mean by reuse root features but I don't recall any root solution app or framework asking for Phone Permission. If you are asking about granting phone permission to Google Play Services after Google Pay registration, you should do it, it's not recommended to deny phone permission to Google Play Services. And once you hide Magisk you don't need to change it's state as Magisk will continue to work as expected whether it's hidden or not.

Am I doing something wrong? I did everything but when I deny phone permissions I get a pop up saying its required to open google pay and cannot get passed that

Did you by any chance remove phone permission from Google Pay app? You need to turn off telephone permission from Google Play Services and Google Play Store. Google Pay app needs phone permission to verify the phone number, don't turn off phone permission from Pay, do it for only play store and play services. Hope that helped.

Does not work
Once I renable telephone permission for Google Play Services, googlepay does not work anymore. Asks me to register and then I cannot register as I dont pass the security test. I am on lineage os 15.1

Non rooted lineageOS
I am a real newbie but i do use google pay a lot.
Will google pay just work on lineageOS that wasnt rooted or with magisk install, only with an unlocked bootloader. Or will i need extra work to do before i can use it?

Extra work? There's no extra work to install Magisk. It's part of the instructions when unlocking the bootloader and installing TWRP. Magisk Hide (part of Magisk Manager) lets Google Pay work.
When you unlock the bootloader and install TWRP (which you need to install ROMs), the next steps in the process include flashing three files IN TWRP: the no root checker, the no encryption and Magisk. I'm not clear why you would just stop short of finishing the process.
Unless you use Magisk Hide, simply unlocking the bootloader will cause Google Pay to then fail -- even without installing TWRP or a ROM.
Unlocked bootloader by itself -- without Magisk Hide (a part of Magisk) -- will cause Safety Net to fail. Google Pay will not work.
Why do you want Lineage OS without root? That's like owning a car with internal combustion engine, but refusing to put in gasoline. (or refusing to charge a Tesla.) You can do it, but to me it doesn't make sense.
You might as well stay on stock unrooted firmware.
I have stock rooted firmware. I'm not using any custom ROMs -- but at least I have root and my Magisk mods.

Thank you. Just flash magisk and hide google pay using it. From what i under stand is i have root access+ unlocked bootloader+ google pay functionalities. And the reason not to root is just because i want the feel of stock android+some nice modification

Recently had this problem with G Pay also. Found where some just deleted 'cache' and 'data' from Google Play and Play Services. That worked for me too. Of course hide Magisk etc first.

Thank you. That's all I had to do to get it working for me.

Hi, I'm not able to get Google Pay working on my rooted V30. I unlocked bootloader and flashed TWRP, no checker, no encryption, using chazzdave's WTF tutorial. Now have Havoc installed. I have hidden root from play, play services, and pay. I've hidden magisk by scrambling APK. I've cleared cache and data of play, play services, and pay. I've revoked telephone permission for play services and play store, although I had to re-enable play services telephone permission during card setup because pay wouldn't go any further. But nothing. Just error message that root is enabled and cannot proceed.
One of my banking apps which didn't work on root is working after hiding from magisk, but no Google pay. Has something updated and a loophole been closed?
Thanks

The device doesnt pass the safetynet test due to CTS PROFILE MATCH failure. This in not a rooted device. No magisk on it, only flashed LOS16 on it.
Would this device have to be rooted to get magisk hide? Is there any non root solution considering the device isnt rooted?

Any not root solution on LOS for someone who doesnt want to flash magisk or root the pocophone but yet access payment apps?
Not that I know of, though Im not really acquainted with it either, but there are some disclaimers when you install a banking app, for example an NFC payment one that does state that bootlocker unlocked, rooted or any devices that have their software tampered with are not eligible for use of such apps. (Or so)

You will not pass safetynet if your bootloader is unlocked
Google has updated their safety net api to use hardware attestation to pass. If your bootloader is unlocked, say goodbye to netflix, McDonald's, poGo, banking apps and a lot more that use safetynet.
The developer of magisk has stated nothing can be done about it, you can look up his twitter and XDA. Google will start implementing the new safety net with hardware attestation stage by stage to all devices in coming days.
For now not everyone is affected but eventually will be since it is being rolled out in stages. You're one of the guys that got affected in the early stage
You have to either choose between banking apps or a custom rom/unlocked bootloader/root.

I don't know if you're wrong or not, that's not for me to decide, but banking apps are working now, EVEN NETFLIX. If you have xposed, just uninstall it. Install magisk hide module from magisk manager and hide magisk from settings of magisk manager and you're good to go.

And bootloader has nothing to do with hardware attestation. It's not a physical thing that you unlock. It's software related that boots up the recovery and the OS.

HUGE THANK YOU! After a month of painful troubleshooting finally i got gpay working thanks to you. At first I Had some trouble with play services due to auto update being too fast (yeah, network was faster than my fingers and couldn't block it with afwall in time) but the second time i tried it actually worked just fine. I updated Play Services anyway since i don't need more than the card i already added, but i need the Play Store. Thank you again!
Hi, i have a new instruction from an other forum and it works for me, because i dont need Magisk.
EU 9.5.9, services 17.4.53 configured PAY without magisk \ root through TWRP
SafetyNet did a verification with the application "SafetyNet Helper Sample"
1) through TWRP in /data/data/com.google.android.gms/app_dg_cache we remember the names of the folders
2) with the SafetyNet Helper Sample application, we check, everything is green, we return again to TWRP
3) A new folder will appear in /data/data/com.google.android.gms/app_dg_cache, leave it, we delete the old ones from p1
4) set the permissions 0551 to the /data/data/com.google.android.gms/app_dg_cache folder
and try use gPay

Selecting custom rom for microG integration

Thanks to the guide created by pjottrr I successfully unlocked bootloader and rooted my device. Now I'm onto what I assume is the next step, which is to flash a custom rom via fastbootd?
Im aiming to 'degoogle' my device by getting rid of gapps and installing microG to substitute play services, though i'm not sure which custom rom is compatible with setting up microG.
Is there anyone here that can share their experience with a particular custom rom + microG integration? Or is there another method for what I'm trying to achieve

It isn't microG, but it does have FDroid app store baked in. It's a really solid ROM. The only glitch is with tethering. Tethering works exactly as it is supposed to but when you exit out it reboots the phone.

Thanks for the suggestion. Would I be able to install microG to replace the core gapps after flashing this rom onto my device? I was going to add the nanodroid magisk module to do so following This guide

There are NO gapps in this ROM. FDroid is a non google app store. You should be able to install microg without having to remove anything.

Well all that's left now is to try and give it a go. I'll report back once it's completed!
Ive flashed the rom! No problems it seems so far. Now im trying... but not sure how to install microG. The aforementioned guide says to install magisk manager to install microG. Only problem is that magisks latest release notes claim that magisk manager is no more, that its already inside the latest apk, which I installed when rooting. So how do I install microG using the manager supposedly baked into the latest apk?
Edit: I was able to install microG successfully. I didnt know that custom ROMs came unrooted. I rooted it following the same steps as the first time and then I was able to easily flash the microG module in magisk with no issues.
Thank you so much to all the people on this forum. Im a total noob and seemingly was able to successfully accomplish what I was after, with very minor hiccups(that were caused by my noobness of course haha)
Guess I might have spoken too soon.. On microG the permission to access location in the background, and permission to receive SMS arent ticked in the self-check menu. Any ideas on how I could go about easily fixing this?

You should be able to just click on the items which arent checked and microG will ask for the permissions so you can grant them in the pop-up

Ive tried this but to no avail. Oddly enough, I made a 2nd user account on the same device and on there microG has all the permissions checked.
I installed it via the magisk module. Do you think it would make a difference to try uninstalling it and maybe try installing via the f-droid store?
Check out my post here. I have successfully installed crdroid 7.4 with Nanodroid plus microG and a real Play Store.

I appreciate the tip, but this is for crdroid, I've already went with lineage and as of yet don't plan on switching to try something new. besides that, microG works fine on my 2nd user account which Ive switched to use and that I mentioned in an earlier post in this thread. And on my newly embarked journey to retain privacy and protect my data I've come to discover its better to use a second user account as your daily go-to account instead of your admin account which grants root permissions. My second use account doesn't have root permissions so in theory this should protect me better.
I guess what I thought was an issue with microG might have been a blessing in disguise since it's forced me to use it on my 2nd user account where all the permissions are granted and now I should be a bit more protected from root access attacks

Question Revolut and similar apps on device with unlocked bootloader

My question is not directly tied to Pixel 6, but since I have that one, I will post it here.
After I unlocked bootloader, I cannot find Revolut in my Play store. After I somehow managed to find it, it says that I cannot install it on that device.
Is there a way to hide the fact that bootloader is unlocked or any other way which will let me install it?
Try rooting and see if Magisk's denylist and the Universal Safetynet Fix module help. But simply locking the bootloader is about the only way for apps that detect the bootloader to work.
Tried both but didnt help.
My device is rooted, my denylist has the appropriate Google apps (Wallet, GPay) selected, and the USNF is installed. Something else is blocking you. I not only see the app in my Play Store, I installed it and ran it without issue.
Take a look at this guide, particularly Part II step 5 ("Root/Reroot with Magisk and pass SafetyNet"). You don't need Magisk Canary, but do follow the rest, particularly where it mentions "Get Device Certified". Your device may have lost certification status, and this will bring it back. You may also need Shamiko, it hides Magisk/root from some things that still manage to detect it, but there's a little controversy around that with it being closed-source.
edit: should mention, with this arrangement I am personally able to see Revolut in the Play Store as well.
Unfortunately I rooted my device, and I'm NOT able to see the Revolut app in the play store.
I have enabled SafetyNet, have hide Magisk and gave permissions to the apps, installed the systemless hosts module, and still nothing.
When I download it from apk, still not being able to start it, or it bring me to an error at some point..
Any ideas?

Make sure you have Magisk's denylist enabled, and the most current version of the Universal Safetynet Fix module as well. Revolut, as mentioned upthread, appears in my Play Store and was able to run without a problem.
I'm also rooted and bootloader unlocked and revolut is working fine for me. Maybe you're not running the correct universal safety net fix.
If you can't resolve you can try Aurora store from f-droid. I use it for unsupported app in my country, so when playstore says tha the app is not supported in Croatia i use Aurora to donwload it. Working perfect.
I have root and i am using all banking apps, gpay with no problems. Also Revolut app
So I think I have managed to understand why the revolute app is not showing up in the store.
I think it's because the bootloader is unlocked, ever since I have unlocked it, the app is "not visible in the country you are in" that's the message from the play store.
I have managed to download the apk manually, CLEARED STORAGE INSIDE APP VERY IMPORTANT, hide magisk, enabled deny list, I pass all safety net and cvt profile and the app is now working.

Just to point out your issue must be a country restriction. My bootloader is unlocked.

Before I rooted my phone, I had no problem with downloading the app from the play store...

And I have no problem downloading it now, so something in your setup differs from mine.

Wow, now all of the sudden I'm able to see it, I can even update it to a new version. Something very strange is happening, which I cannot understand, anyway I can see it...
Your problem was probably that your device was not certified.
PlayStore -> Settings: there shows that your device is certified and was probably missing before.
Cheers
Tom
I am unable to see the app on my playstore.
Using prerooted rom with safety net passing too. Google play store is certified too
With Android 13, Revolut now demands that the app is installed through the Paly store and Huawei store.

Does this mean that Revolut won't work on Android 13 and a rooted phone?

Followed the root thread in P6 pro forum,
Wipe data of, wallet, Google play services, Gpay. Install the modded USNF I attached. Install magisk prop, in magisk blacklist, gpay, wallet, play store, Google framework. Reboot. It should work, worked for me

Thanks! it worked
Got the first half...not sure exactly how to do the second:
'Install magisk prop, in magisk blacklist, gpay, wallet, play store, Google framework. '
Still a bit noob-ish with my root/magisk kung fu...
He meant Deny list in Magisk, there you select the apps
Cheers
