Android Pay with Root
- Thread starter jgummeson
- Start date
After flashing the updates and installing the test TWRP, I installed SU from /sdcard (I had placed it there before the update, and I don't format userdata.)
After rebooting, the permissions were good, but the xbin_bind was created. Just had to delete that and AP worked.
Hm, yeah the only thing I did differently from the instructions was used the no-force encrypt boot.img, rather than the OEM one, in order to remain decrypted. I wonder if that's a factor.
I didn't format userdata either.
I use stock boot.img, I don't think systemless root works with anything other than stock boot.img.
You wouldn't have that folder. SuperSU 2.68 prevents it from being created already.
With xposed being able to change system at such a low level, i'm surprised they haven't released a module yet to allow android pay to work. I used to do this with verizon's soft card a couple years ago to get free jamba juice for a year.
You guys are freaking awesome. Tested with newest update, SU 2.68, and I'm able to add cards. Assuming I'll be able to pay. Thanks!!!!
I was able to add my card yesterday, today I went to pay at a terminal and received a message about not being able to verify my software. Checked my su folder and the permissions for bin was correct, but my xbin folder I deleted got regenerated. Deleted it, removed my card and tried to add my card again, I'm getting the same software error. Have any of you guys been able to pay recently?
One thing I did that might have resulted in the problem is I installed xposed last night. Any of you guys have android pay working after installing xposed framework?

I received that message as well and i did what the person said above and it worked!
Delete /su/xbin_bind with a rooted file explorer (I use ES File Explorer)
Reboot
Use Android Pay

19Guys,
I made a post a couple of days ago over on the 5x forums: http://xdaforums.com/nexus-5x/general/passing-safetynet-root-t3307659. With this permissions fix I have Android Pay working without having to enable/disable root in the SuperUser app. Hoping it will work on 6p as well.
Anyone willing to give this a try on the 6p? You would need a stock ROM (or possibly another ROM that previously worked prior to Google's recent change that broke it) with systemless root installed (I'm using 2.67). Basically all you need to do is:
-Run "adb shell"
-From the shell run "su"
-On the # prompt run "chmod 751 /su/bin/"
So far this has worked for me and a couple of others on the 5x (both adding cards and making purchases). Let me know if anyone can confirm that this works on the 6p.8For those who are confused, here are my steps for using Android Pay while rooted.
1. I reset my phone to factory defaults by installing all original software.
2. Unlocked the boot loader.
3. Installed TWRP, but kept it read only.
4. Installed Beta Super User 2.67
5. Through Android terminal after entering su and allowing terminal emulator root access:
6. rm -r /su/xbin_bind
7. chmod 751 /su/bin
Android Pay works, root is still active. Thanks all.5
Don't forget Busybox. Using Pure Nexus ROM, a clean flash is not necessary. I have dirty flashed Pure Nexus from the 203 to 218 build but had to reflash SuperSu 2.67 along with the echo commands and permission changes. Don't remember if I had to reflash busybox as well. Doesn't hurt to do it again.
Do NOT use UnSu.zip at all, even on a clean flash. It removes the SuperSu app within the ROM and will not show up even after flashing SuperSu.
*Delete any cards from Android Pay before proceeding.
Flash rom (Pure Nexus recommended)
Flash gapps provided by op (if clean flash)
Twrp terminal echo commands
Flash SuperSu 2.67
Flash BusyBox
Boot into rom and make sure in settings of SuperSu, under 'System', option is greyed out and reads 'not currently available in systemless root mode'.
Change SuperSu bin folder permissions to 0751 (rwxr-x--x). (I use a root file explorer)
Reboot
Use SafetyNet app, which should pass. You should now be able to add cards to Android Pay.
Test with a beverage machine so you're not holding up the line at a retail or grocery store.

I just did it with Root Explorer. I changed the permissions for the /su/bin folder to 751. SafetyNet checks are passing now, but I haven't actually tried to purchase anything.2
I'm systemless root with SuperSU 2.66. I deleted xbin_binds after I was rooted. All I did was chmod 751 (I did the same thing via ES File Explorer) and AP works for me.
