[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] schwags:
OK guys, sorry I know this has been brought up a bit, but I've been determined to find a solution. I've been trying to get Samsung Pay to work. More specifically because I use it a lot and have a Gear S3 that I want it to work with.

Yes I did research before I rooted, and it appeared there were many solutions to this problem, but I've tried them all and none have worked. I just want to see if anyone at all has got this working. Maybe I can update with different things everyones tried as we go. I feel like there HAS to be a way to make this work. If anyone has gotten this to work in any way, please post!

My Phone: SM-G950F

Knox Status: 0x1 (Faked 0x0 by Magisk)

ROM: Renovate Ice 5.1

CSC Version: SPE (Spain)

From my research, the SPE seems to be open to Samsung pay along with some others. I have encountered different error messages with different combinations of software, hiding Samsung Pay in Magisk, etc. It might just be due to newer and older version of Samsung Pay

Things I've tried:

Fake 0x0 with Magisk, v13.6, 13.7, 14.0

Hide root status with Magisk

1.3.7 Samsung Pay Gear Plug-In (I found somewhere that said this version works, although it just keeps updating for me)

Moved /system/xbin/busybox to SD card

Error message I'm receiving on latest software: Access Denied: Samsung Pay has been locked due to an unauthorized modification. Tap the link below to call customer service and unlock Samsung Pay (RD-SXA).

Note, I have not tried calling customer service yet, that will likely be my next step. I will just tell them I bought the phone on eBay and I'm getting this message. I doubt there is anything they can do, but it's worth a try.

Please don't grill me, I know basically everyone claims this is NOT possible with 0x1 due to hardware fuse, etc. I know this community is strong and I've seen people pull off the impossible before, just hoping to get this to work so my S3 Gear doesn't become a paper weight.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] idler1984:
The actual functionalities of Samsung Pay (MST for example) are handled by trusted apps running in secure world. Root in normal world does not affect anything there. Saying that we can fool normal world apps, we still can't fool the TA running in secure world. So even though Samsung Pay app can launch, it won't be able to function in the end.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] schwags:
OK, I have an update. I was able to get Samsung Pay (mobile version) to work! The regular version still gives me an error, but if I launch from my watch, it pulls the mobile version instead.

Here's what I did:

**NOTE: This only works if you have a Gear S3, I have not been able to get the full version of Samsung Pay to work on the phone yet.

1. Boot into recovery

2. Wipe all partitions except the SD Card and OTG

3. Installed Renovate Ice 5.1

4. Select Custom CSC during install and chose "214 Spain"

5. At the end of setup, don't reboot, flash magisk again manually (It's installed in the ROM, however this is the only way I found to get the icon to show up)

6. Open Magisk Manager

7. Click Menu and go to "Magisk Hide"

8. Search for "Pay" and check all apps that show up

9. Update all apps and connect S3 as a new device (you can restore apps/settings)

10. Use root explorer to /system/xbin and move busybox to your SD card (Make sure it doesn't exist on internal storage, if it's present, app will fail)

11. Launch Magisk Manager again and search for "Pay", again make sure all are checked, for me there was another new Gear version that I had to check to hide

12. Reboot the phone

13. Hold down top button on S3 to launch Samsung Pay

14. Proceed through wizard and add a card or "Launch" Samsung Pay on the phone from the S3

15. The Samsung Mobile app should open correctly on the phone and let you add cards etc.

If you try to add busybox back and reboot, it will not work. And again, the actual "Samsung Pay" app on the phone does NOT work, I still get an error. Maybe it's not possible.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] idler1984:
Nice findings! So Gear S3 has stand alone pay capability even with non-Samsung devices?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] schwags:
I'm not sure about non Samsung devices. All I'm saying is there are 2 versions of Samsung Pay on the S8, one standard version that you would use if you didn't have a Gear S3 and another version that s triggered from the S3 but then runs on phone. That's the one I can get to work.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] srn9118:
Does this method work with renovate 7.2? I have followed the steps and appears denied access
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Xgztylm:
Same problem here, and I live in Spain too!

Does it work with other rom?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] schlomomotin:
I have an sm 930f with 0x1 status, also. since the error message has changed and suggests "call customer service to unlock samsung pay at 0330 726 7729" I just got off the phone with UK customer service.

1. agent didn't know anything about unlocking samsung pay

2. since I reside in the U..S he suggested I had to call U.S customer service which I have already done and they know nothing about unlocking samsung pay. Perhaps there's a change in the works but not yet.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] schlomomotion:
I wonder what happens if the flash counter hits 0x9. One more flash and it hits 0x10 or does it go back to 0x0??
[Pixel C Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mr_silas:
i was just thinking about googles new keyboard patent. Than i was thinking about what google has made so far. Chromebook 1,2 and the Pixel C. And i remember reading alot from everyone talking about how the Pixel C possibly was orginally being developed to run Chrome OS. I cant remember finding out why that didnt end up happening. So my prediction they will come out with a new Pixel C that runs Chrome OS. Anyone else agree? Thoughts? :)
[Pixel C Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] efan3719:
i think there is a place for a Chrome OS tablet but i'd much rather have an 8 inch Pixel C that runs Android. Chrome OS is good in a lot of ways but i still really do prefer Android. maybe the days of Android tablets are gone and i'll just have to accept Chrome OS to fill that use case gap.....
[Pixel C Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mr_silas:
Ya I agree. I prefer Android too. Although with chrome 53+ makes a great case for where its heading. A "blend" of the two. I'm so curious to see what they have planned. If anything at all. I have two Pixel C's, two Pixel XL's and a new Acer 14 with the i5 and 8gigs of RAM and I love them all!
[Pixel C Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sbuttler:
I ordered a Pixel C two days ago, before the leaks showed up. Love the Google design language its infintely more appealing than anything Apple has come up with in the last couple of years. Thinking about return the Pixel C. Why do you guys prefer Android over Chrome OS. I had access to a Chromebook for a couple of hours about a year ago but I don't remember it too be much different from Android?
[Pixel C Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] liam_davenport:
This was just leaked. I have a Pixel C and use it like once a month Android tablets are useless it's just a big Pixel phone it has no "Tablet" features that make it more justifiable.. And pricing of this is just DOA..

[Moto Z2 Play  Questions & Answers] kewynferreira:
Hello!

(Before start, please, ignore any english errors, i'm brazilian and i'm writing in english now)

When i try to set up my LIFX lights (or any other Google Assistant accessories), the Android send a command to "open Google permission URL" on the On Screen Browser. But, the new On Screen Browser on Moto Z2 (It is like a big PIP on the center of the screen, and works like a separated browser) are not returning the SUCESS message from Google website for Assistant app (It simply try to open the message like a URL). When i close the browser using the CLOSE button (or the back button on the phone), the Assistant just turn back to the inicial set up screen...

How can i turn off this browser, or come back to the old browser (like on the Moto Z 2016)?

Thanks in Advance!

thanks for your help mate
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] VerucaSalt:
Hey mate.

No, not me I'm afraid, but the dev who did this has done a handful of other builds from source it seems. I think the AOKP one in the dev forum is his which was smooth as. With the exception of no NFC.

Can't wait to flash and see what is working with LOS 15.0 though.
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] darudedudedocta:

Did you factory reset after install this happens sometimes a factory reset normally does the trick.
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] hands0m3:
Did this work for anyone didnt boot for me.
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] albertoduqe:
I wonder where are device sources for that build... There is no oreo branch sources for lithium that I can find... Although of course I just do not know how to look for them. Or maybe the developer made compatible tree, vendor and kernel himself and haven't had time to upload yet :)

What's strange is that that man builds a workable (if it is, I don't know) oreo build for Mix and doesn't share anywhere ... I would've done immediately :victory:

Anyway it is good news at least that someone's working on it albeit not yet successfully!
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] gavin19:
We can be 99.9% sure that we'll at least get a working Lineage build, and almost certainly one for RR too (Papps has already said it's coming). I know the OP2/3 have booting Oreo builds, if not fully functional just yet.

Pretty sure that if this actually worked it would already be in the ROMs section, as you said, but I tried it anyway. No luck. Factory reset, installed along with the GApps zip from the 24/8, using TWRP 3.1.1.2. Just sits at the MI boot screen. Maybe it'd only take an updated TWRP to boot, but as it stands it does nothing.
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] albertoduqe:
Not wanting to criticize in the slightest but it truly amazes me that a rom that does not boot is uploaded to AFH or whatnot ...

Anyway, I am in no rush for any oreos for the Mix. Always been more of burgers and fries than sweet stuff myself :)

Sorry I correct myself: device and kernel for lithium are there in LOS github for Oreo :)

[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] jutley:
Maybe we need a Oreo 8.0 Firmware will it boot with a 7.1 firmware?
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] VerucaSalt:
Didn't work for me either of course. Full wipe each time, tried the available kernels, always stuck on the MI logo.

Oh well, it's positive at least that there is some work towards Oreo.

The rom didn't brick your. Phone, you did by flashing it. Read the title, it refers something challanging. If the rom would be known as stable or super smooth or promised to be so; it would has been shared under development forum, not here. Be aware of the title and some rom OP's which always recommend you to ''take a nand back up before flashing'. Thankfully you atleast did one of them.

Nope, I havent tried it yet. It used to fix error 7 in some cases. That's why I suggested. I actually can try flashing it only through dual boot patcher since I've got 11 roms installed. Let's see.

---------- Post added at 01:57 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:12 PM ----------

So here is a way to flash this rom:

Decompress the rom zip and go through file explorer(i.e ES file explorer);

Remove this line in META-INF » com » google » android » updater-script(first line):

assert(getprop("ro.product.device") == "lithium" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "lithium" || abort("E3004: This package is for device: lithium; this device is " + getprop("ro.product.device") + "."););

Why it prevents flashing don't know but it definitely does.

And if you wanna avoid the firmware mismatching issue which also prevents flashing, remove this line too:

assert(xiaomi.verify_modem("2017-07-05 22:52:07") == "1");

Then re-compress the rom and flash the modified rom. If boot loops; just give up mayte.
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] Jester646:
Erro fixed, but will not boot at all.
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] Konstantine34:
Last sentence of my previous post, is a good suggestion ?
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] Constrabus:
FYI, I've been working on building lineage 15 from source for lithium for the last week and a half, so that i could share it with you all.

But their branch 15 code base simply is not ready for complilation yet. Until it is, any build you find is probably fake or just not working.

When their code source is ready, I'll have a build ready asap. Stay tuned.
