[Nexus 6  General] JW09I4:
Again, Android Pay will never work properly

on a rooted device

due to the serious financial issues it would create within the world's economy. Once the device is no longer rooted, Android Pay will function normally (unless running a 3rd party ROM, such as CyanogenMod, which Android Pay will also not work on). There will never be a workaround to allow Android Pay, in it's current form, to function fully on a rooted device, not now, not in the future, never.

Will exploits be found in Android Pay at some point to allow it to be fulling utilized on a rooted device, absolutely... but no one will pass up a significant payday from the app devs, and the financial institutions they in turn protect, to freely offer such an exploit to the public. Again, this isn't some trivial roadblock to make the lives of superusers inconvenient... this is in place to literally protect the entire world's economy.

The only way it would ever be allowed to fully function on a rooted device is if the transaction authorization keys are no longer generated on the device itself and the device contacts the financial institution's secure authorization servers for the authorization keys [which defeats the purpose of Android Pay].

This has been written about quite a few times by individuals working in the banking sector to explain exactly what occurs on the backend when an online purchase is made and conversely how that transaction is handled by Android Pay, how they're different, and why Android Pay functions in the manner it does.

This is device specific and

does not

apply to the Nexus 6

Again, your post contained no

new

information to this thread, and was simply a repeat of what's been covered in over 50 posts by other users like yourself who can't be bothered to SEARCH a thread

prior

to reposting the same information over and over again (I even took the time to link to every post after #200 that covered, or referenced, the information in your post in my prior reply, post #287).

This has never been about what I find useful, something I've made quite clear if you've read my replies. It appears you have a problem with doing your due diligence, whether it's utilizing search and thereby respecting other community members, or fully reading posts you're replying to. As I mentioned previously, why not try for some personal responsibility?

It's not as if THREAD SEARCH is difficult to find... it's in big capital letters in the right hand column

You cannot seriously believe any thread benefits from the repeated reposting of the same steps over and over again if the site implements thread search. Since you obviously never bothered to read the posts I linked to in my previous reply, the OpenWrt WRT1900AC thread demonstrates what occurs when sites don't offer thread search, as the thread is 13,157 posts long as of 21:08 yesterday.

How many more repeat posts to this thread will it take, how large will this thread have to grow, for users like yourself to realize you're making it harder for everyone else to find the information they may need in this thread. Many will take the time to skim a thread with 50 posts., but most won't be willing to skim a thread with 300 posts due to the amount of time it would consume, preventing them from finding a nuance here or there that may be important to their current experience, but not something that would come to mind to search for.
