Hi! I am trying to enable in-store payment with GooglePay, but it does not allow me to do so.
I am on a stock official ROM, no root and BT unlocked. I tried it with several payment methods.
If your bootloader is unlocked, you might as well root it. Then hide root in Magisk for Google Pay. My phone is rooted and Google Pay works.

I have a Samsung j5 2015.
I want to temporarily root it.
After I restart my phone, I want it to act like it never was rooted. Ever. If I give it to my carrier, even, and they investigate it, they won't be able to find it. its status also must be official after doing this.
Is this possible? I don't need a custom ROM or anything, I just want to remove the pre-installed crapware.
just root it and unroot if you dont want it anymore, its that simple(but it might still void your warranty but eh)
That's not much problem my device warranty is already voided. The problem is when i root it it shows root failed i think its is due to locked bootloader. I want to unlock bootloader without wiping data. Is it possible...? @dankfrank33
btw what android ver are you using? did you root it thru twrp(flash method)?
6.0.1 Marshmallow
What you suggest me how to root it...?
i tried kingroot and kingoroot it failed always...
Hello,
Before rooting and custom rom, I wasnt able to pay with the phone. After custom rom and root, Im still not able to pay. When rooted, I wasnt able to add the paying card to the app, so I fully unrooted the phone. Then I was able to add a card, but still I cant pay with the phone. I have tried 3 batteries, with NFC.
Is there a fix or some kind of update for it ?
Lots of apps are beginning to block me from being able to use (Prime Video, ADT are a couple) with bootloader unlocked. It's not the root, because I have Magisk Hide. Is it possible to relock the bootloader and keep root and twrp? This is the H918 running 10s debloated.
No. Unlocking the bootloader is what stops it from checking the integrity of boot and recovery. If you lock your bootloader, it will bootloop.
This is where all other models have an advantage. The debug bootloader reports that it is locked even though it isn't.

I am able to play prime video content on my h918. I do not know about adt, but I am able to use bank apps with magisk. I suspect Google Play thinks your device is "uncertified". Go to the Play Store then settings and check the very bottom for device certification. I find a lot of apps use this check to disable app/content.

Before I did the update to 10s,it did say uncertified. Now it says certified, so it's not that. Directv now wouldn't work until I hid root, but both those apps still said my system was modified even hiding root from them. Oh I should also mention Netflix works fine. Those 2 apps tho, they will not.
Benefits/downsides of doing that?
Thanks
I think you can't. Magisk overwrites your boot.img and that's the issue. Guess your phone won't boot afterwards.
Indeed. I tried it and it just got to the mi logo and rebooted itself over and over.
You can lock bootloader by restoring previous boot image in Magisk manager, then you should be okay.
You can't or it will show something like "Your device is destroyed"
You cannot lock bootloader after *any* system mod. Plain and simple.
Hi, please I have a question about this.
So, How do you use banking or paying apps like Google Pay if it checks for unlocked bootloader?
I would like to use Magisk + Google Pay and I dont see the way.
Thanks!

With unlocked bootloader, you must install Magisk to pass SafetyNet. If you don't have Magisk installed and you have an unlocked bootloader, you will fail SafetyNet with ctsProfile being false, rendering you unable to install and run apps requiring you to pass SafetyNet. As long as you pass SafetyNet, you can run banking apps and Google Pay with no problems.
why so many people afraid to keep bootloader unlocked? ok is a security risk, but if high unlikely to have issue if you dont install/run bad stuff on your phone... or i mistake?
I have a 3 year old galaxy s7 edge. And recently i tried to root it, and i think i didn't succeed in that completely. Because with root checker my device shows its rooted. But my supersu got disappeared after couple of hours. And i tried to install other root managers (king root) but now i cannot get root access to any apps.
My device is still rooted as per root checker. What should i do now? How can I unroot the device?
Which rom are you running?
And is a custom recovery installed on your phone?
Ultimately you want to unroot your phone?
Just want to do some banking
Stock android 8.0. And i haven't installed any custom recovery either. This is not my daily driver. This was my brother's old phone. So i haven'tdone any thing interesting to this device. I was simply using this for a second sim card only. Now i want to do some banking transactions from this phone and those apps doesnt let me from a rooted device. Is there an easy way to unroot this? Or an easy way to hide the root for the apps to work?
