Help Android Pay

[Aliloopy]

When I try to set up Android Pay, I get the message "Android Pay can't be used. Google is unable to verify that your device or the software running on it is Android compatible" Is this because my Nexus 6p Android Version 7.0 is rooted? If so is there a work-around, if not, what's wrong? Thanks.

Yes, your are correct that Android Pay will not work on a rooted device.
Is there a workaround? Besides unrooting, not that I know of.


More clarification on the subject

The only way that I know of that might work is to use systemless root and use a custom kernel that hides the fact that that the bootloader is unlocked.

I thought that got patched up with the latest Pay update? Not sure as I cannot root, so I really don't keep up on it

There is a method on XDA using Magisk.

Not sure if it still works. I could not get it to work on my phone.

Thanks to all, I'll check out magisk

I don't even think magisk works any more. If your bootloader is unlocked Android Pay won't work.

I have heard that on the pixel, ElementalX kernel hides the bootloader tamper flag... This is why I said it's a maybe. It's possible that a custom kernel on other devices will work as well.
