Gpay: doesn't work at new Fossil Gen6 - Wear OS Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
I thought that I have covered all basic requirements, but for some reason Gpay doesn't work at my new Gen6.
Steps of activating it:
- Installed Gpay app
- Set up my Revolut card, which I also use at my mobile
- Have NFC & location on
Any ideas what maybe is the problem?

Wow, no one has got yet the Gen6 from here?

I have a Gen 6 and have been using GPay without issue. Just to start at the beginning, you are opening GPay on the watch before trying to tap, correct? I have the top user button set to open GPay, to make it easy to get to.

I found out that the problem is related to my geo, as gpay is not officially supported in my country although at my mobile it works pretty fine without any problems like at the Gen6.

Paylib problem

Hier everyone
When I use my payment app, "ma carte" which includes paylib app for NFC payments, I don't find the way to make it work. I used this app whithout any problem on other phones. I can launch the app but the option to pay without contact doesn't appear...
If anyone could help me I would like appreciate,?
I hate to ask the obvious, but do you have NFC enabled, and are you aware that it's behind the camera screens?

Hey !
Question : Did you root your phone ?
I'm on OnePlus 6 but it's probably the same.
My bank (CIC) have enabled PayLib through LyfPay app two days ago, used it without problem to buy a beer, but rooted the phone yesterday after this, switched to Franco Kernel.
Magisk indicates that both SafetyNet tests are successful and Magisk is hidden from my bank app and LyfPay, but the PayLib section in the LyfPay app doesn't appear anymore ... Mhhh
Looks like it detected rooting although everything seems fine and hidden ... That's what i ask if you rooted, to see if it's not just an app or service bug and if it could resolve in a few days

Same here.
My bank app detect root and so I can't pay with gpay or bank app by nfc
If you are not seeing the option to make NFC payments in your "ma carte" app, there are a few things you can try to troubleshoot the issue:
1# Make sure that NFC is enabled on your phone. You can check this by going to your phone's settings and looking for the NFC option.
2# Ensure that your phone is compatible with the "ma carte" app and paylib app for NFC payments. Check the app's documentation or contact their support team to confirm.
3# Verify that your "ma carte" app and paylib app are up to date. Check the app store for any available updates and install them if necessary.
4# Try removing and reinstalling the "ma carte" app and paylib app to see if that resolves the issue.
5# Check if there are any conflicting apps or settings on your phone that may be interfering with NFC payments. For example, some antivirus apps or battery optimization settings may prevent NFC from functioning properly. Try disabling any such apps or settings temporarily to see if that resolves the issue.
6# If none of the above steps solve the problem, contact the "ma carte" and/or paylib support team for further assistance. They may have additional troubleshooting steps or be able to identify any specific issues with your account or device that are preventing NFC payments from working properly.

Can you use the in-display fingerprint reader for banking apps?

So I know you need to use the Ambient Display / wake on tap to use the fingerprint reader.
But can you use it for regular fingerprint apps, like a banking app?
I tried finding information about this in Youtube comments and whatnot, but no one replied.
Thanks!
The banking app I use along with other apps that use fingerprint work fine with a fingerprint.
It works with my 2 banking apps.
Also works with other, non banking apps...
Works for me as well, ABN Amro in the Netherlands.
Yes. Works just fine using Numbrs.
It works exactly the same as every other fingerprint reader, so yes.
I can relate. With my Samsung Galaxy S7 my Wells Fargo app would allow me fingerprint to sign in option, not anymore on the OP6T. But on the Cash app, to deposit money it presents the option for fingerprint yet oddly enough only receiving - not when sending money
Yes, works fine
Works with my PNC, Paypal and also MyBuick app
That is very weird. Maybe the app is too old? Or OnePlus has to fix the firmware?
Working on all four of my bank apps
So it was actually well hidden in the settings but I got it to work lol. Thanks for the doubt guys.
Working well with all my bank apps (CapitalOne, BoA, etc)

Sure can use it for multiple apps

Works with Barclays in the UK also(Banking and PingIt).
Works fine with USAA, CapitalOne, KeePass, Authy and everything else I've used it for.
Works with Chase, JP Morgan, Citi, American Express, discover, and google pay.
. Yes, you can use fingerprint reader for logging in to your online banking account. Have it set up before you download a banking app, once you go through initial login /password /secret words, etc, a pop up window will ask you if you want to use fingerprint for future logins. Tap yes of course and it should work. Same is for PayPal, ebay for instance
Like everyone else said it works just like any other fingerprint scanner.
PayPal and Bank of America works fine with it.
@Elloco305 the phone settings or the bank app settings?

Google Pay stops working on OnePlus 5 (NOT rooted device)

Hi all!
I'm writing here to see if someone has any idea, it seems I'm not able to understand the reason.
I setup Google Pay on my OnePlus 5 and it was working perfectly, up until some days ago. Now when I put the phone close to the POS, nothing happens, even if I open the Google Pay app before placing the phone near the terminal.
I performed a factory reset of the phone, after that, Google Pay started working again, but then, after a few hours, it just stopped with the same exact behavior, meanwhile I had restored the backup of most of my apps.
I again performed a factory reset, Google Pay started working properly, then slowly started re-installing and re-configuring my apps, constantly testing if Google Pay was working (luckily I found out how to "test" if Google Pay is working without having to buy something*), everything was working properly, but then, apparently without reason, Google Pay stopped working again in the exact same way.
I pinpointed the problem down to Google Pay and not generically to NFC, because Android Beam and other NFC apps are working perfectly. I also tried an app from Visa that emulates a credit card for test purposes (Visa Mobile CDET), this app replaces Google Pay as Tap&Pay provider and when I test the NFC payment with that app set as default, it works, the test card is sent over to the receiving terminal. As soon as I change the default Tap&Pay to Google Pay, nothing happens anymore.
Some additional info: my OnePlus 5 has never been rooted, it is up to date with the latest firmware (OxygenOS 9.0.6). Google Pay is version: 2.90.250604638
Is anyone experiencing the same issue?
thanks a lot!

Not directly, but maybe you get some ideas of those discussions for magisk/Google pay

spot on! thanks!
I never thought about Play Services, but that's the issue indeed.
The version I had installed was:
17.4.55 (100400-248795830)
May 21, 2019
arm64-v8a + armeabi-v7a
Android 9.0+

I reverted to the previous one I found on apkmirror:
17.1.94 (100400-248977010)
May 21, 2019
arm64-v8a + armeabi-v7a
Android 9.0+
nodpi

and now Google Pay is working again.
I guess this means there was a bug introduced on the latest version or something like that, it's difficult to say without a changelog
At least this explains the random behavior, Play Services libraries are probably updated in background automatically.
thanks for the hint! Now I have to make sure Play Services libraries won't update automatically and I probably need to monitor new releases as I don't want to stick with an old version forever.
Opened a ticket on the google issue tracker: https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/135132389 please "star" it and add your comments, we need to understand if this is just a OnePlus issue.
Opened a ticket on OnePlus forum: https://forums.oneplus.com/threads/...-5-after-google-play-services-update.1053102/
Possible workaround, however not very straightforward and comfortable, but could be useful to troubleshoot:
- Install Visa Mobile CDET app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.visa.app.cdet&hl=en
- set it as default Tap&Pay app
- as "Use default" option, select "Except when another payment app is open"
- open Google Pay app and keep it in foreground
- pay with Google Pay

From what I understand, it emulates different types/technologies of contactless cards, so merchants can be sure their POSs are compatible with that type/technology of cards.
It should be "safe".
I tried the workaround, and I can confirm it works.
Now we just have to organize a meeting in Bologna, the issue seems to be here

Exactly, the app itself is not useful to us, but it lets you change Tap&Pay default to another app that is not Google Pay and this seems to be unlocking Google Pay for some reason.
I'm really starting to think that the issue is only in Bologna

Which Google Play Services and Google Pay version? Thanks
Hello everyone. Finally I found someone else with this problem! Since may/june 2019 I'm having this strange issue of Google Pay not working anymore. I've been in contact with Google and OnePlus, they reflashed OxygenOS but nothing solved the problem. Google Play Services is now updated to the version 19.4.20, but Google Pay and other NFC apps still don't work. The strange thing is that some NFC apps work properly, other do not work at all... Just like Google Pay. In the meantime, did someone found a stable solution? Thank you all.
Hello Frank!
the only workaround is the one described above, unfortunately, no solution is offered, but it seems it's some kind of compatibility issue with other nfc apps.
for example, andreacos92 realized that after a factory reset, Google pay works properly, but the moment he installed Muver (an Italian nfc app to use mobile bus tickets) and after the first reboot, Google pay stops working, even uninstall ing Muver will leave Google pay broken, the only solution is another factory reset.
any chance you're also using that app? Or perhaps another one using nfc?

Pokémon GO on switch?

I was just curious if pokémon go is possible on the switch since there is no GPS. If there is a possibility even with a spoofing app, how would one go about installing it on the switch. Thanks in advance.

Good morning, a week ago I was trying to install Pokemon Go on the switch to use Fake GPS ....
Unfortunately I saw 2 barriers.
1- The Switch does not have GPS, an essential requirement for most Joysticks.
2- We cannot connect the switch via ADB. This would also be essential to use the SmaliPatcher.
3- Magisk cannot pass the second safetynet check...
I am not an expert, far from it, but if you want we can try it together. I think there are a lot of people who would appreciate being able to play PoGo on the switch with LineageOS
The latter two points are irrelevant, as with the newly released Android 10 for the Switch, I've managed to use Smali Patcher without issue and fix the SafetyCheck with just a lil bit of googling (duckduckgoing, actually, but it doesn't quite roll off the tongue). Pokémon GO runs without a hitch and the only issue right now is that the GPS Joystick app insists I turn on the location. If we can find a workaround, we're golden.

My Setup is Smali Patcher and this app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.incorporateapps.fakegps_route&hl=en_US&gl=US (I've got the paid version) I've just unticked both "Android 10 FusedLocationApi" and "Smali Patcher Mode" under App settings and it's been working without any problems.

Is there a way to have Smart lock working (MIUI Global 12.0.4) without rooting the phone?

I'd like to use Smart lock but it's not available in the menus. I read some solutions that require rooting that I don't want to make because I'm warried about the issues with Google Pay and some bank's apps not working anymore after rooting.
So, is there a way to have Smart lock back?!?
Thanks in advance

Can you please point out to any (working) solution that requires root - but without the usage of any kind of Xposed (only Xposed is a threat for Google services but I doubt that even Xposed could make it really working).
With root, you can install:
[ROOT] Smart Lock Launcher - S - Apps on Google Play
[ROOT REQUIRED] A small shortcut to open Google's Smart Lock settings.
play.google.com
and get the menus and setup Smart llck, but no avail since Trusted places, Trusted devices (except maybe for Xiaomi BT devices) and On body detection will not work
I.e., I have root and just reinstalled Smart Lock Launcher (for the purpose of screenshots below) but I'd like to see how to make Smart Lock options really working. A year ago I spent quite a time, searching through forums for various other Xiaomi devices, but no avail
It only worked (with Smart Lock launcher I got it working) with one of Xiaomi eu weeklies, but since the next week, it was (most likely, intentionally) disabled

I referred exactly to that app that I haven't tested because I've no root but I thought it was working. Thanks to you, I realize now that it's not the solution as well.
I'm really disappointed because of the unavailability of the Smart lock that I miss a lot when I'm home and working.

Added two more screenshots above, I just setup again Trusted places and On body detection, then locked the screen - but on turning the screen on it still asks me for finger or pin (although both rules for Trusted places and On body detection should have been kicked off and automatically unlocked my Mi 9T)
Currently on Xiaomi.eu, A11 beta, 21.3.18

Thanks zgfg, you saved me from a useless rooting of the phone.
I really don't understand. What's the matter?!? Does Xiamoi care about the issue? Is there a plan to fix it in the future?
