Lenovo Yoga Tablet 2 830F - Android 5.0.1 - Lollipop ota update 2 from Lenovo (20/7/15)
Filename: YT2-830F_USR_S000195_1504220230_WW21_ROW_TO_YT2-830F_USR_S100067_1507101258_WW52_ROW.zip

INFO !!!
My first update OverTheAir with this file was a fail. Only black screen after update and reboot.
(I think because i did not change the country code after flashing KitKat a few weeks ago)
(If the update stuck at 100% in recovery you also have to reflash KitKat ROM)
So i flashed original 830F KitKat ROM via "PhoneFlashTool" with this ROM / Tutorial:
https://cloud.mail.ru/public/Z2US9gd..._150422_ROW.7z
http://www.android-hilfe.de/thema/tutorial-wie-installiere-ich-das-kommende-update-wenn-es-nicht-funktioniert-fuer-alle-varianten.697884/
Changed the "Country Code Setting" via ContactApp ####6020# to "de" (select your language).
And do not update any app like Chrome etc. when it reboots again after.
Then download and start the Lollipop 5.0.1 Update.
Lollipop upgrade reboots into recovery and stays 5min. at 100%.
Then reboots into some intel-flash mode and stays for 4min.
After it reboots into Lollipop OS... :cyclops:
INFO 2 !!! (if you installed Lollipop update 1 first and now restoring/flashing of KitKat ROM fails)

I have the same problem, only that I had the first Lollipop version for 1050F with root and then got the new Lollipop update. The Kitkat version fails to flash. But here is what helped: Go to this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/thi...-8-10-13-3-t2930428/post60490907#post60490907
and download the LtoKKxml.7z and copy the files into the kitkat firmware folder and then flash using flash-LtoKK-PVT-810.xml
I had to remove the parts of the XML that erase and format data. Then it worked
After that I could flash KitKat!!

LOLLIPOP ROOT
So easy, follow steps 1-8: http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/development/intel-android-devices-root-temp-cwm-t2975096
I download "IntelAndroid-FBRL-05-16-2015-PTR.7z" and "UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.46.zip" and it worked with Lollipop 5.0.1.
Make sure you have all the Android, Intel, ADB driver stuff installed (for me win7 installed another one at rooting?)
!!! USE OPTION T4 FOR LOLLIPOP ROOT !!!

Yup I got the notice a few mins ago. I also got it many weeks ago when it bricked my yoga 2 8.3
Advice, when it says Updating....100%. Leave it alone. Last time I thought it was done since it said 100% for many many minutes. So i thought it was stuck or bricked. Just let it sit. It will reboot by itself and restart to the next phase.
It will also sit on the Lenovo android screen for quite a while before it goes to Android is upgrading.
Yes, i got problems too!
- It stays for 8min. at 100%. I leave it alone...
- Then 4 chinese Buttons showed up.
- I pressed the first (reboot i think)
- it reboots, it shows the white lenovo text, then black screen with background light on.
- i waited 10min., no change or start into OS.
- then i pressed 15sek power off, light goes off.
- if i power on, again white lenovo text, then black screen with background light on. nothing... ???
i reboot into recovery and wiped cache, nothing.
i think i will make update from SD card again... see if something happend
Update again from SD dont work! it says:
"/system/app/Chrome.apk" has unexpected contents...
E: Error in /sideload/package.zip
SUCCESS, LOLLIPOP IS WORKING!!!
I Have restored original KitKat ROM via "PhoneFlashTool" with this ROMs / Tutorial:
https://cloud.mail.ru/public/Z2US9gd6f2ei/YT2-830F_S0195_150422_ROW.7z
http://www.android-hilfe.de/thema/t...icht-funktioniert-fuer-alle-varianten.697884/
This time i´ve made the "Country Setting" via ContactApp ####6020# to "DE" befor download and upgrade!
And i have aborted the automatic PlayStore updates for Chrome etc...
Lollipop upgrade reboots into recovery and stays 5min. at 100%.
Then reboots into some intel-flash mode and stays for 4min.
After it reboots into Lollipop OS...
So can you boot back into android? Even after you wiped it? If not and you can't do anything, call Lenovo. I think only they can fix it.
If you can get back into android, I would suggest waiting for the System update notice. That's what showed up this morning for me. I didn't have any chinese buttons. I didn't have to touch anything, just wait for a really long time which is unnerving because I don't know status.
I flashed the KitKat Version again, changed country code, and installed the new Lollipop 5.0.1 update again.
This time there are no chinese buttons to press. (i think because changing the country code befor update).
Lollipop is great, the display is much faster while scrolling in chrome etc.
Interesting. I wonder what the difference between the versions of the country codes are. Mine bricked last time it was updated to lollipop. When I got the repair back, it was back to kitkat and I couldn't update until this morning.
Glad to hear you got it fixed. A few of my apps also stopped working and I had to clear the cache to get it working again after the update.
There are some differences in pre-installed apps. I did not changed the country code few weeks ago because there are some apps in german setup i do not want...
**** Edit *****
Added a Link on top
Added ROOT on top
mine is failing on Lenovo Recovery. It will go to 100% and failed. I had to reboot. FYI, mine is rooted.

You need to flash the stock kk firmware.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=61955463
From my LG-G3 running Jasmine8.0/Skydragon Kernel 4.2
Yes, It looks like I cannot just upgrade from rooted KK. I had to go back to stock kk firmware provided in the OP's link and follow step by step instructions using google translate. thanks workdowg and 5m00v3.
anyone missing 5GHz band Wi-Fi support with country code DE? I cannot seem to change the country code once it has been upgraded to Lollipop.

Lollipop does not longer provide the option to manual change band... it will auto connect to 5ghz if possible.
It has nothing to do with country code DE. You can check your connection 2,4/5ghz with the app "wifi band".
My YT2 connects automatic to my 5ghz. And i have 2 networks (2,4 + 5ghz) with same networkname.
Hi,

Okay, I found the solution ! Make the tablet totaly Off, press volume up and volume down, than press power bouton, you directly acces to fastboot mode, and here you can flash with Phone Flash Tool.
Hi,
thanks for the timming TIPs !!
I can't believe LENOVO dosen't take care of this basic things !!
Thanks to you Lollipop is running on my beloved Yoga.
A little tip while we are avaiting 5.1,
Go in Parameter
Activate DEV options : About this tablet, touch 7 times on "Build Version", it will activate the Developper Menu in parameters
Go to Developpers Option (in PArameter)
UNCheck NuPlayer in multimedia.
--> REBOOT your device
It will allow you to avoid Lagging into the UI and apps.
Note that in 5.1 NuPlayer has been replaced by a bugfree version.
Now my last issue is to root the Lenovo...
I tried the rooting method : http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/development/intel-android-devices-root-temp-cwm-t2975096
but aleas I'm stick with an ugly : E: failed to verify whole-file signature
when trying to apply latest SuperSu when in recovery mode...
Tried with stock 2.46 and BETA 2.49.... same result.
Your help is kindly requested to solve this....

Googling ”E: failed to verify whole-file signature" and each one talks about a corrupt download... They are old posts from 2013 or so but they could be right.
Try this version 2.40. You can update in the Play store once your rooted.

Sent from my YOGA Tablet 2-1050F
Thanks for your help.
I tried the 2.40 version triple check the zip file, aleas same error...
Also there are not only corruptions problems related... some are related to CMW version problem and lack of "unsign" option..
Again thanks for the 2.40 link. If you have any suggestion I'm all ears.
There is a new update, to yt2-830f_usr_s100191_1511230623_ww52_row
anyone tried it already?
Looks like it requires going back to stock KitKat again just to update it.
Can't really be bothered trying it.
Hello to all,
After a long time using Android, I've come to windows with this device, but I'm facing 2 issues I cannot fix, so I thought I can ask...
1.- I can't install my self-signed-certificate so my server gets alerts, and several apps validate the certificate and crash. I've tried copying the PEM/P7B/DER. For PEM/DER it says "unsupported file" and for P7B it raises an error
2.- I tried to download the speech Spanish voice, and it got stucked in downloading since 2 days ago (using 3G/4G/good wifi/bad wifi) and it never ended... Is there a way to kill the download and restart it?
Thanks in advance!

Hi all! I know that Mobile Upgrade Q is long gone and I have a program that will reset your Idol 3 back to factory settings with the factory ROM. I have used this program in the past, but unfortunately I no longer have the device.
What you will have to do is download the program available here: https://drive.google.com/open?id=1Sd99aiZIL8JSpXwAiwGitulNFbJxi2Z4
After downloading there will be a folder named "SUGAR QCT_SP v11.1.2" open this folder and use the setup installer to install the program. After installing (assuming you have the necessary usb drivers installed that can also be found within the folder but I assume many of us have it already installed) open the program "SUGAR QCT_SP_Gotu2" which if memory serves me correctly, will be placed on the desktop.
Note that you will have to have your device connected to the computer prior to launching the application.
A window will pop up asking you for a username and password. The username and password can be found in the downloaded folder in a file named "sugarpw". The user name is "SU_IN.Panasonic" without quotations and the password is "KoD8naL2".
If any window pops up regarding updates to the program, do not update it as it can cause complications when trying to restore. After this point I cannot remember much of the program because as you need your device to be connected in order to access it, I cannot see it personally. From what I remember there is a drop-down box in which you will need to select your model of Alcatel device. Then there will be two buttons from what I remember. "Get root status" (or something along the lines of this maybe "check root" I am not sure) you need to press the Upgrade or Restore button. I am not sure past this point but I assume someone can comment on this procedure exactly but this should be enough to get you through the process.

hello, first time i write here after long time reading about idol3 recovery, i was almost out of ideas, my 6039k dual sim (italy) got bricked hard as couldn't do any backup, no usb debug no adb no custom recovery, plus alcatel do not share stock rom so this software and chewyboy0 saved my phone. thank you very much. Stefano
thank u a lot you saved my phone i was not able to restore my 6045k dual sim and i was having twrp recovery but there is no roms for dual sim 6045k exept cyanogenmod 12 which was making a lot of problems glitches very annoying . by the way it after your instruction no much left behind the most important thing is after connecting your phone usb put the phone in download mode manually by pressing volume up and down with usb connected after turning your phone off till download screen popup then press volume up continuously till screen turn off , the program can not go to download mode automatically so do it manually then press upgrade in program then screen will popup asking u are u sure u want to install this rom with firmware num etc... agree and wait till it done .thank a lot chewyboy0 god give u the right path and keep u happy in life and last thanks again
Just wanted to share my experience. I actually had to upgrade the software in order to get my 6045O from cricket to restore it back to the original cricket MM. In fact, before I upgraded the software it just said 6045 and afterwards it showed multiple versions of the 6045 including the 6045O. Anyways, I just booted into download mode and pressed upgrade and waited 30 minutes. After setting my phone up I went ahead and used Alcatel Flasher to install TWRP and root my phone again.
I was beginning to give up hope. Before updating the software I kept getting model mismatch error. Had already used Eluga, which dumped by Lte for HSPA+ and I tried flashing every radio possible, which only made it worse to where the sim wasn't detected.
If you can help, on the Alcatel website it was necessary for the idol 3 Mobile_Upgrade_Q_5.1.8_Setup.exe and in fact contact me with Alcatel support and the only thing they told me was that I had to send it, but it had a cost, and My last option was to do the trial and error, so I saved it with the Mobile_Upgrade_Q_5.1.7_Setup.exe and it worked.
Note:
My idol 3 is 6045I
Android 5.0.2
I also use Google translator, I do not know English
It worked for me!
Before opening the program "SUGAR QCT_SP_Gotu2" I had to put my mobile in "Download Mode"...
Step by step:
1: Download the program available in the link posted in the threat;
2: Extract the downloaded zip file and open the "SUGAR QCT_SP v11.1.2" folder, then setup installer to install the program;
1: Turn off your device completely and connect it to your computer with a USB cable;
2: Put your mobile in "Download Mode". For Alcatel Idol 3 6039J, push and hold the Power and Both the Volume Buttons, a Red Screen should appear in your mobile, then release all buttons and quickly hold the Volume Up Button until the screen turns Black;
3: Open the program "SUGAR QCT_SP_Gotu2" which will be placed on the desktop (when asked, allow windows administrator privileges);
4: Enter with username (SU_IN.Panasonic) and pw (KoD8naL2), click on "OK" button;
5: Click "No" to quit updating;
6: Select your device model in "Product Models" list (6039 for Idol3 4,7");
7: Click in "Upgrade" button and wait until the end (it takes a while for downloading the firmware and writing it into your device);
8: Your device should restart automatically running the stock ROM.
9: Have fun

Hi
I could restore with Mobile Upgrade Q 5.1.8
Available on alcatel-mobile.com
Idol 3 was restored to Marshmallow, so I don't know if root is possible after restoring.

Just 3 weeks ago, I was able to restore (in Canada) my Idol 3 to stock MM using Mobile Upgrade from download mode (I think it was version 5.1.7 as 5.1.8 would not do anything).
Here is a download link:

Hi All,
I'm trying to update the p9 lite VNS-L31C432B414 dual sim to the latest version B416.
The phone is always officially updated, but i tryed all 3 versions from firmware finder, with the *#*# 2846579#*# *
Select Project Menu > Software upgrade > SDcard upgrade method.
But when the phone restarts it begin to update and after a little progress it failed.
The same thing happens when i try it with the firmware finder app from playstore with erecovery, or dns method.
Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

Firmware Finder
DNS/VPN method should be the best way to try this update.
The other only method that i know is to use Huawei Recovery Updater
but you should unlock the bootloader and flash a custom recovery first.
In the end it will be a bit difficult to re-lock the bootloader, never tried to do such a thing,
but you can keep it unlocked...
Good luck dude.
Cheers
Hi Dadditz,
Thank's for your response.
Last night i have tryed with a extra wifi router to change the dns number but even when the Firmware Finder app giving me the message that the B416 is registered for my phone, when booting in erecovery it installs the B414 FULL package again.
And with in the app proxy and dns method with firmware finder, the system update app from huawei gives me the sign that a update is ready to B416 with the release notes and all but when it starts it shows a checksum error or download fail.
I have registered the IMEI but do you know if it's maybe the problem with that its a dual sim so there a 2 IMEI numbers? or is the first one enough to register?
The tip for unlocking the bootloader i have searched on, but huawei has taking the unlock service down i understand, so the dc-unlocker2client program for 4 euro is the only option i think?
The main reason that i want to try the latest firmware is that people can't hear me good with this phone, i send the phone 2 times for repair and contacted the provider but the signal looks good.
Now i have factory reset the phone for the tenth time, i was thinking maybe the eset virusscanner interferes with the build in huawei/avast scanner but im not sure if that could cause it.
Thanks and have a nice day.
Hi all
I just unroot and unlock BL my phone yesterday. First i make downgrade (rollback 6.0) via dload method. Everything going very smooth and when my phone was version VNS-L31C432B160, then i'll get all newer updates via OTA (Finland), now my phone is B416

Hey dude it's like you somehow downloaded B414 firmware and putted into
the internal memory or the SD card.
Check if you have that files and delete them, then try again with the update.
Don't know about your two IMEI, you have to check by yourself wich one would work...
About unlocking the bootloader, yes it is possible with the tip you wrote (dc-unlocker).
Before attempting to do anything try first with another sim and see if is the same as now
because if nothing changes maybe it's a hardware issue...
As suggested by @oltsuboy it's possible to downgrade to MM and re-upgrade
to N android version, you only need the correct packages..
I'm here to help you...
Have a good day..
Cheers
Hi guys,
I have tryed to downgrade to android 6, and that works, and then i get OTA to B370 and then B380 so i am android 7.0 again.
But now the OTA update find nothing, it stays on B380.
Before when i checked system update with HiSuite it says B414 is the latest official firmware, but now it says B380 is??
As far as i know i used only official updates with this phone, and i have wiped partion and system a lot of times.
And mostly there where 2 sim cards in it, i only put in SD card formatted first for the update.app
So i don't think B414 is floating somewhere, but i don't understand where it went wrong.
It's a non provider linked phone with a sim only abbo from the netherlands, i already asked a new sim card from the provider to test if the voice quality improves but it makes no difference.
I'm gonna wait a little maybe a update comes, when i put the B416 update on the sd card now and do force update VL+ VL- PW. the update fails after ten procent.
Maybe tommorow im gonna look to unlock the phone for 4 euro.
Thanks for the help!
Update: I have tried the DC Unlocker program.
And obtained the bootloader code, but what do do with it now?
Something says i did something wrong, because the options where:
Read unlock codes
Read bootloader code
Lock Bootloader
Erase Huawei ID
But no unlock bootloader, so i did read bootloader and copied the code.

Hi dude,
DLOAD aka three button method won't anyway work on android 7 versions...
Sorry did you tried with your brother/sister/friend sim and seen if it's the same behaviour ? ( about the weird quality voice ).
Keep your unlocking code safe and before attempting any unlock re-try to update via Firmware Finder, checking this way...
Obviously turn on and connect with the WIFI...
After installing the app open it and add your variant (VNS-L31C432).
Find the firmware you're looking for (VNS-L31C432B416 FULLOTA-MF 2,2GB) and tap on it.
Now check the availability, register it with IMEI for the update and use the dns change / vpn method.
Once the vpn started, check repeatedly into the stock inbuild updater for a update and the B416 version should come. If will be disponible tap and download your update (should be approssimatively 2,2GB).
When it'll be at 5% pause it for a while and stop the vpn service.
Go back and re-active the download of the B416.
If all will go well you'll have the latest firmware.... :laugh:
Let me know how it went.
Cheers
Hi Dadditz,
No i don't have tryed another sim yet, the provider has said that if i give to more telephone numbers from the same provider they can do a scan for the quality.
So maybe that's something to try.
Later at night there came 3 more updates and the latest is now B414, so i am back on the same build
Yesterday i have unlocked the bootloader, with this guide: https://forum.xda-developers.com/huawei-p9lite/how-to/guide-unlock-bootloader-twrp-root-t3405701
Yes sorry i couldn't wait so i think let's try
When i was at the TWRP part, when i must reboot to recovery mode it stays on the screen that the phone was not safe.
So that part i still want to proceed.
So i rebooted and go to sleep.
I just have tryed your tips, but i see the same behaviour, the download fails, the extra wifi router which i changed the dns to was not more in my network, so i tryed without it.
With my own wifi router at home, they don't allow the change of the DNS, can that be the problem? or if you put a extra wifi router to it it's no problem?
I attached some screenshots, do you see that the buildnumber is displayed 2 times after a row?
I maybe think that's because i tryed to register both the IMEI? so maybe that's a problem?
Sorry i don't know how to attach the screenshot's below.
So i put them in a album called B414 with my profile, i hope you can see them, sorry this is the first forum i post on.
Thanks a have a nice day :good:

Hey mate,
you're such as educated guy and i really apprecciate that !
Well... i saw inside your profile the B414 album and maybe i found the mistake...
damn ... seems you didn't read carefully what i wrote !!!
Look in previous post, you need the FULLOTA-MF package 2,2gb !!!
not the OTA-MF (incremental) one !!
Repeat again the procedure, register one only IMEI, hope this time
you'll be able to update correctly
Let me/other members know.. :fingers-crossed:
note: if the update will end correctly, it will re-lock the bootloader too.
Cheers
Hi Dadditz,
Thanks i didn't even finished my school so my english is not good, but i hope u understand.
I always tryed to install the full package mf B416 2.2gb but when i was testing it with the extra router it always shows a checksum error or download fail, tonight im gonna try that again, and let you know how it went and describe the steps that i tryed so maybe you can see where it goes wrong.
I also tryed the firmware finder windows version to register the IMEI, so maybe i make a mistake there.
This afternoon i was trying to attempt to proceed with the TWRP installation, but when i was booting with VL+ and power it won't go to recovery mode, on the xda forum i was reading more people with the same problem, the phone stays on booting
But the phone is working now so im glad i can whatsapp and watch netflix, so i will not try to go further with that, and focus on the B416 full update.
Thanks:good:

Can you describe maybe how i can insert screenshots in a post?
When i try to insert a image in a post it is asking for a link, can i upload pictures at XDA or do i must use another image upload server?

Dude,
sorry if i wrote something that someway hurted you,
english isn't my main language too...
Attachments aren't allowed to junior member, you need to post many times
in order to be authorized.
Let's go to the main problem...
If you want to try to flash the B416 version with the TWRP
you first need the correct TWRP version...
If you followed the link you posted above,
you tried to install the marshmallow version,
that's because it won't boot.
Your device are running android 7 ( nougat ) and you need a working recovery
in order to use Huawei Recovery Updater ( HuRu ) and flash that B416 firmware.
All files ( firmware apart ) you need are present on XDA, so just download and install
what i wrote you here.
Be sure you have installed Hisuite on your PC and it works.
Be sure you have enabled developer options then open it and
disable screen lock, enable oem-unlock and usb-debugging.
HERE to download and install Minimal ADB & Fastboot on your PC.
Connect the device to the PC, make sure PC recognize it allowing permissions if needed.
Then on the PC open a prompt (CMD) with admin rights and type "adb devices".
Below you should see your device as a serial of numbers and characters like
THIS screenshot. If that worked go next step.
Type "adb reboot bootloader" and it will reboot into fastboot/bootloader mode.
Now type "fastboot devices" and you should see your device as a serial of numbers and characters like
the screenshot i posted above except you'll see authorized/unauthorized section.
If your device are now authorized you're ready to go.
Type "fastboot reboot" and it will reboot into system.
HERE the link to download HassanMirza01's 3.1.1-1 EliteTWRP, flah it with fastboot command
( past a copy of TWRP into the adb & fastboot main folder )
( into fastboot mode ( see above ) type "fastboot fash recovery name_of_recovery_you_downloaded.img" )
When finished type "fastboot reboot recovery" or reboot with vol+ and power buttons.
Once you'll have a working TWRP installed reply me here
and i'll indicate the next steps.
note: with CMD prompt write without quotes " "
Cheers

Hi Dadditz,
No problem mate , i'm new to this phone flashing and was insecure if my english was good enough to communicate on the xda forum.:good:
I was just to let you know that my second try with the second router is maybe succesful for the B416 FULL update part.
I now connected my pc to it and when i changed the DNS i changed the second DNS to 1.2.3.4 and when the firmware app says registered to this ip:......, i took that ip in the second router.
And then boot in to huawei Erecovery and now the B416 2gb is downloading, why the DNS and PROXY in the app only provide the 700mb update all the time even if i registred the 2gb version i don't know.
Maybe the DNS or ip setting had something to do with it, my understanding of network settings is limited.
The download is 42 procent after a hour but it's a old wifirouter.
So i was now about to ask if it's succeed i could undo the TWRP and lock the bootloader and just read your message, so i don't know if it hurt's anything if i let the update install
I wait and see :good:
edit: i did see you message that the update will relock the bootloader but i was asking because i was not sure because i messed up the TWRP part. edit
The update to B416 was succesfull! :good:
I haven't see the warning that the device isn't save when booting and Netflix appears in Google Play store again, so i guess i don't have do anything more to disable TWRP and locking the bootloader
Thanks for the help Dadditz and sorry that i was impatient to wait on your message, in the future i ask and wait patiently, but hey i didn't bricked the phone
If the voice quality improves i now must test, and the next step is to ask a network scan from the provider on 2 more telephone number in my town.
Thanks :good:

I suggested, you did. :good:
All is well that ends well.
If you had TWRP recovery installed,
you wouldn't be able to update with Firmware Finder,
as you would have needed stock recovery ...
And yes now the device is 100% stock.
Thanks for your feedback dude.
All the best
Hello all,
My odyssey with the S8 continues.
I tried to do a rollback to stock rom android 8 and I broke nox apparently.
I am tried to reinstall again using this guide on the forum https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s8/development/rom-galaxy-s8-t3749171
but apparently my phone just doesn't want to run android 8, its stuck on android 9.
I then reinstalled android 9 downloaded from samfirm.
all ok except i found out google pay doesnt work anymore, althought the rom should be the stock one.
I tried to follow some guides on there again to fix this but my knowledge is not that deep to be honest.
Is there a clear guide I can follow to truly flash a genuine version of android 9 on my S8 and have google pay working again please?
Device is an S8 originally from O2 (O2U carrier)
Many thanks for all your help I really appreciate every efford.
Kind Regards,
Adelio

1. From the link provided you cannot downgrade firmware firmware with lower bootloader versions which is why it didn't work.To downgrade you will need the same bootloader vesion ( 5th number from right of firmware name).
2. Using samfirm or sammobil or updato (websites) firmware won't trip your Knox.
3. As for Google pay ( I don't use it ) the issue is not Knox related.Something's to try:
- In recovery clear cache
- backup phone and factory reset.
Not 100% sure but I think Google pay rely's more on safety net ( and maybe Google Play store verification ) so that maybe something else to check.

Rock ON!!
Wish my S8 Active had a Android 9 ROM, still on Oreo, which isn't too bad, but ya.
