[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] pTeronaut:
My pixel is fully updated, been unlocked, custom kernel, and rooted before returned to stock and locked (using the image from developer.google.com) and passes the safetynet helper test, and gets past the add card page of Android Pay.

No help I know, but what build numbers are those that are failing on?

Mine is NDE63V (In US)
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] DaveHTC200:
I'm running the NPF26J in the UK (side loaded) but stock recovery and kernel.

Edit: it's me being retarded, having an unlocked bootloader without custom kernel will cause failure!! My bad ?
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] 4umexdeeay:
Same; NDE63V (US)

Still requesting assistance if anyone has suggestions...
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] DaveHTC200:
You're completely stock? You haven't unlocked the bootloader?
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] 4umexdeeay:
Correct.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] DaveHTC200:
Have you tried a factory reset, I know you lose your data though :(
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] 4umexdeeay:
Yes, same result.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] pTeronaut:
What's your device's model number? (In Settings > About Phone > Regulatory Labels | United States Of America) Mine is: FCC ID: NM8G-2PW2100
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] pimfram:
My XL had the same issue with AP. After a couple factory resets, installed updates, and about 20 emails back and forth to Google, I finally gave up and unlocked and rooted because if I wasn't able to use it, I might as well not be able to use it for a reason.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] DaveHTC200:
If you unlock and use a custom kernel (no root) then you'll be able to use it! No idea why not as stock though!!
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] 4umexdeeay:
"model: G-2pw2100

fcc id: Nm8g-2pw2100"
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] pTeronaut:
Well, the foundation is identical.

The only thing that I can suggest is to reset your phone to factory, set up as new, do not restore any apps, install Android Pay, and try that.

If AP still fails, use the system image from:

https://developers.google.com/android/images (Instructions and links to images for all builds)

https://dl.google.com/dl/android/aosp/marlin-nde63v-factory-a66866ba.zip (Latest official build for NDE63V)

IIRC, the batch file formatted the partitions before flashing them, so it might clear out any corruption in your system.

Some sections took a while so don't be impatient.

Seeking a less drastic solution.

Waiting to hear back from Google after they review my bug report, will reply back here if there's anything constructive.

Any further troubleshooting is welcomed.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] milan187:
It's really not hard to use flashall. Only part that is a little work is unlocking bootloader and locking again.

In simple terms.

Enable oem Unlock in developer options.

Boot phone into Fastboot and on your pc run fastboot flashing Unlock.

Run flashall from google.

Lock your bootloader by typing fastboot flashing lock.

Only thing you will need is fastboot.exe.

Google won't be able to fix your issue without doing this or replacing your device. This way you will learn something :)

I finally received a response from Google where they confirmed that it is a bug....

Below is their quoted email response to me:
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] texascfdad:
An update is supposed to come out around Dec. 5th. Hopefully the bug is fixed in that update
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] slickromeo:
I'm curious if this bug is affecting ALL Pixel XL phones (currently on Nov 2016 Security Update) ?

or is it only some Pixel XL phones on the Nov 2016 Security Update?

If your phone has updated to the Nov 2016 Security Update and you have a Pixel XL and you have never tweaked, modified, rooted, flashed, rommed, unlocked bootloader, etc. your phone, Please let me know if adding a debit card to Android Pay works for you....

if it does then that means this bug is only affecting some phones.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] Okmed:
Android pay will not work on a rooted phone.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] slickromeo:
Google is asking me to verify that my bootloader is locked because they suspect it's unlocked....

I had always assumed it was locked because it came directly from the Google Store.... But what's the best way to check?

What is the most conclusive way to determine if this phone I purchased directly from Google, if it came with a locked or unlocked bootloader?
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] uicnren:
if it came with an unlocked bootloader, it was certainly an error.

when the phone boots, if the bootloader is unlocked, you will get a warning splash screen that the phone cant be verified.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] JimSmith94:
Reboot into bootloader and it should show on the screen as LOCK STATE, either locked or unlocked.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] DaveHTC200:
He did that, back on page 2 and it shows as locked ?
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] slickromeo:
Yes. It's definitely locked, I thought I had checked incorrectly but I didn't.... I was starting to doubt myself...

Turns out different Google employees respond to my email and the latest one hadn't noticed that I checked that bootloader was indeed locked... So I responded to the Google employees email with photos showing its locked (I've attached them here also)....
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] slickromeo:
My build number is NMF260, I'm wondering if these bugs are only affecting specific build numbers or not...

Just wanted to chime in with my device failing CTS verification too today. Never been rooted or had bootloader unlocked; build NMF260.

Had been working fine prior to the update :-/
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] Okmed:
Not that it helps but I have. 128 GB XL from the Google store. I did the upgrade and mine is fine.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] harmohn:
Mines a 128Gb XL from Google Store (UK), device model G-2PW2200.

Hopefully the next update will sort it.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] slickromeo:
I also have the 128gb Pixel XL and I am also on build NMF26O...

BTW, i've been emailing back and forth with google android pay support for about a month now, so if any of y'all want to mention my CASE ID# when you reach out to google, please feel free to do so

Google Support Inquiry CASE ID# 3-5759000014700

BTW, I'd like to please ask all of you to keep updating this post with any status updates y'all may have (Especially if you're on an unmodified, unrooted, never-unlocked bootloader Pixel purchased straight from the Google Store)

THANK YOU !

[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] 4umexdeeay:
Man, no matter how many times we spell things out, they just gloss right over it...so exasperating. Sheesh :silly:

Anyway, a slight development though not a resolution; I'm getting a fresh warranty replacement phone mailed to me within a week due to a separate (or maybe it is related?) defect...so I'll test that one out for this AP bug too...it's worth reiterating that Android Pay did work on this Pixel at first back in November before the recent 7.1.1 update.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] harmohn:
Just a quick note to let you guys know that I managed to get SafetyNet passing CTS profile match & Android Pay working after flashing the full NMF260 factory image.

Note: I had to update platform-tools to the latest version using SDK Manager in order for fastboot (version 1.0.36) to recognise the Pixel's partitions correctly..
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] slickromeo:
I wonder why you chose to flash NMF260 but the google support team told me to Flash the NDE63P.

also, i'm not sure what you mean when you say you had to "update platform-tools", and I also do not know what you mean when you say you had to use SDK Manager. Is SDK manager the thing that ensures you have all the android drivers for the Pixel XL ?
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] Drashnar:
Yes, SDK Manager is what allows you to use adb and fastboot commands directly to your phone. There are other versions available to be used, but they aren't always up to date, so it is always best to use the official google version.

--------To Flash--------

Note that you will need a Laptop or Desktop computer to complete the flash.

https://developers.google.com/android/images

That is the link to the full builds for your phone.

You want a build from the "marlin" for Pixel XL list.

The rest of the flashing instructions are on that site.

That site has the link to the SDK Manager, download and install that, then follow their instructions for flashing. Included there is also the command to lock your bootloader.

If I were in your spot, I'd run the command to lock it even if I thought it was locked already.

Hope this helps.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] harmohn:
Hi mate, I flashed NMF260 as that was the 7.1.1 build I was experiencing CTS profile match failure on. As most people on this build had no issues, I concluded that it must have been the OTA that had corrupted the system in some way. Hence I flashed the full factory image to see if it resolved the issue, and it did in my case.

Drashnar above gave a good explanation of the other queries; SDK Manager & platform-tools.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] dsmitty166:
I had the same results as here. With the OTA, Android Pay did not work. I wiped everything, still did not work. Manually flashed the fully image and now AP is working successfully.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] 4umexdeeay:
Replacement phone received and running on 7.1.1; Android Pay working again...no rooting/flashing was required.

Possibly we were sold faulty devices to begin with?

No sé.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] slickromeo:
Folks, my problems adding a debit card to Android Pay are fixed no thanks to Google....

I'm not sure if this is what fixed it, but this is the only thing I did seeing as I never rooted, never unlocked bootloader (I also never unlocked & relocked), factory data reset was the only thing I did and not even that fixed it.

I'm on the January 5th, 2017 security patch level on my Pixel XL.

Here is what I did...

1. I clicked on a Facebook advertisement saying Chipotle was offering free chips and guacamole.

2. It led me to their web promotional offer where you play a game to get rewarded with free chips & guac.

3. After the game, I won the free chips and guacamole a QR Barcode was presented that I am supposed to show the cashier at Chipotle for her to scan so I could get the free chips and guacamole so I took a screenshot of the QR code. However I also saw the webpage had an option to "Save to Android Pay" (see attached photo)

4. I clicked the save to Android Pay button and it saved the QR code as a coupon in my android pay app! Which is really nice.

5. At this time I decided to attempt adding a debit card again figuring that if I could add a coupon then perhaps I could also add a debit card..... AND IT WORKED!!!! I added 3 debit cards!!!!! (See attached photo)

6. I opened the SafetyNet helper app and it said I passed the SafetyNet test!!!!! How is this possible if I literally did NO changes? All I did was update to January security patch and add a Chipotle offer to Android Pay.....?

I don't understand how this can even happen....

Here's the link to the free Chipotle chips and guacamole if any of you want to try it out

Hi I made my samsung s6e+ looks like a no back case (teardown) see attached photo just edit it to fit on your note 5 this size is standard for s6e+ print it on a bond paper or photo paper depends on what you want cut it then put it inside your clear case no need to paste it just put it in so your case and phone doesnt have smuges of glue.

here's the link

thanks no need to paste just print the design put it inside your clear case and bwala your clear case now have a new look

oh and dont forget to cut the camera part enjoy
[Galaxy Note5 Accessories] Taylor_Swift_Fan:
Thank you for this its great but it seems that is about .5 cm too short. Thanks anyway :)

---------- Post added at 01:23 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:18 PM ----------

Too short in height
[Galaxy Note5 Accessories] imfuzzyyy:
you can resize it anytime, resize -> print if still not fit then resize and print it again try and error maybe 2 to 3 try will make it fit on your case

the standard size of the file is for s6e+ because that is my handset but you can edit it a little to fit on note5
[Galaxy Note5 Accessories] Taylor_Swift_Fan:
I know I can resize :) just since it is in the Note 5 section it should be a bit taller. And it's just me some people don't even mind its just it drives me crazy XD.
[Galaxy Note5 Accessories] imfuzzyyy:
i see I just posted it since that teardown is originally for note5 design, so maybe a little effort to fit on your case, btw can you show picture if you already put it on your case? or if you manage to resize it for note5 then share it here so users will no longer resize it, I cannot make the standard size for note5 since Im not using that handset
[Galaxy Note5 Accessories] Linux:
Not right dimension, could you post original file with true dimension?Thanks
[Galaxy Note5 Accessories] imfuzzyyy:
sorry I cant make the right size for the note5 since my handset is s6 edge plus but you can resize it maybe 2-3 tries then I'm sure it will fit on your note 5
[Galaxy Note5 Accessories] datawrhsdoc:
Updated Image

I've removed the watermark, cleaned up the battery image, and resized the image to fit the Note 5 perfectly. Enjoy!
[Galaxy Note5 Accessories] imfuzzyyy:
awesome! that was cool bro, mind to share now your note 5 picture with the case and that print out?

Make sure that you print to actual size in the Adobe print dialogue.

wow that was awesome bro! its so clean

edit: btw bro its on pdf I cannot edit it so it can also fix on my s6e+ gonna replace mine with yours since you make it clean

yes, that's what i did. but it is short.

[T-Mobile LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] D200P13:
i was rooted but went months without touching os or using heavy root apps besides like greenify and tasker. the other day it just randomly rebooted twice and never booted on the 2nd time. stuck on life is good screen. in twrp the phone would restart without touching. had a lot of trouble to enter twrp just to copy some internal files. luckily i was able to back up the internal files i wanted but have not been able to go back into recovery. was able to sit on fastboot and download modes without it rebooting. ran the unroot tutorial and finished 100% without it restarting during. when finished flashing stock unroot, it was supposed to reboot but still stuck on lg life is good. the phone is 1 year and 15 days old so i doubt tmobile or lg are going to care about it. looks like im screwed huh.
[T-Mobile LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrswegyolo:
happened to me a few days ago. it is fried. just re lock the bootloader and send it to t mobile. they will send a 2016 model which will not fry,
[T-Mobile LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] D200P13:
thanks! can you please provide me more info on how to send it to tmobile? i already flahsed a stock non root and does not give me the relock bootloader message so im assuming its locked. i tried to see the tmobile site but the nobody is on the chat support. tried to get out 1 of my older backup phones but realized the sim is a nano and spent about 30min trying to position it just right to be able to get some calls/texts. i failed.
[T-Mobile LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iphone5sf:
Do you try to use LGUP to flash stock rom likes H901_20L.kdz or H901_20J.kdz ? After add kdz to LGUP and then click Refurbish to start. Don't use upgrade. 20L kdz you can find the download link at Andy rom page 24.
[T-Mobile LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] D200P13:
yes i was successfully able to do that but still stuck on the LG lifes good screen. life is NOT good. tmobile will not help since the phone is 1 year and 15 days of purchase. tbh i REALLLLLY wanted the v20 and was going to buy 1 or 2 next week, maybe as early as the 20th to try and get those headphones but i hear a lot of complaints about LG's not booting up. i have a friend that had issues with 2 g4 and a g5 that would not boot also. he did not root or anything. he was able to do some trade in that got him $200 credit for turning in the last refurb phone he got as a replacement. im just so worried the v20 will not last me 3 years max. the reason for 3 years is because i like to have a good backup for moments like this. since they are so expensive i dont like trading them in. the v10 according to tmobile is worth $24 credit.
[T-Mobile LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrswegyolo:
t-mobile will replace it. their warranty ends in 2 years. they will send a 2016 model. call the support number. ask for a rep. tell the rep what happened. make sure you do not mention anything about rooting. the rep will transfer you to a tech. tell him/her the same thing. they will ask for your account verification and such. then ask if your address is correct and they will send a replacement overnight. make sure you lock the bootloader again if it was unlocked
[T-Mobile LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] D200P13:
ok thank you i will call them tomorrow. i was in chat and they said because i dont have insurance and it is not under warranty that i need to contact LG. i will call tmobile directly.

how do i verify if the bootloader is locked? i did the LGUP and selected REFURB on the file i flashed and was successful. does it mean its locked? also did thiis...

Mine went into boot loop at one year and one day (purchased 11/14/15, boot loop 11/15/16), called T-Mobile, and was told too bad so sad - you can get credit toward a new phone. T-Mobile warranty is 1 year - not 2.
[T-Mobile LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrswegyolo:
when it is in the lg screen does it say in the top left "bootloader unlock" or something like that?
[T-Mobile LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] D200P13:
yes, i went to lg website and they instantly sent me a shipping label to print and the status is currently repairing but i have no clue if i am going to get a bill or anything. nobody even reviewed it. i just entered my phones imei and personal info and description then it just gave me a label and have not had any communication with anyone at lg about it. hopefully none will be needed and just praying that i get an update on the page saying shipped!

no, it did not say anything like that. i flashed that stock rom posted somewhere here that says unroot and entered that fastboot code above. hopefully that was enough to hide my root traces. if this is legit and they fix my phone or give me a replacement, ill opt in for the v20 even tho i missed out on the headphones deal.
