Wonder if anyone that flashed takju is using Google wallet
Or any other way

I'm pretty sure it wouldn't work because it would detect your carrier as a Canadian one and would just say unsupported.

It is restricted and is locked by your location although I'm sure there are some applications that can mock your location.

You CAN use it. You just need to be using something like MarketEnabler, which makes your device look like it's using an American carrier.
Try Tim Hortons, they have Pay Pass.

I have mobilicity in Toronto, and I ended up with the latest MoDaCo rom on my GN and it came with google wallet. I didn't have any problems activating it and even getting $10 credit on there. I just don't know if it would work when I would go and try to pay for something..
Anyone have any idea?

It will work anywhere that has Mastercard PayPass terminals... off the top of my head they have them at McDonald's and Tim Horton's although I have never seen one work at Timmy's (not NFC, my regular PayPass cards never register with their terminals).
Market Enabler?

Do you have a link to an up-to-date Market Enabler? Something that works with Jelly Bean and the Play Store? I've been digging through threads looking for one, and I can't find an official thread for one. There's one called "Market Access" (sorry, I don't have enough posts to include an outside link here) that will apparently do it, but I'm hesitant to install something from a random link.

Try to add money to your Google prepaid card. It did not work for me, even if my Canadian Visa has a US billing address. I think it detects the institution who released the card and blocks it. I purchased my Nexus directly from Google Play, using the same card. From what I heard, they detect also if your phone is rooted or non-stock ROM:
We strongly discourage gaining system-level "root" access to your phone if you plan to use Google Wallet. We are unable to support devices with unauthorized operating systems as the security layers of the device may be limited.

My phone is not rooted, and it does not work on Bell network:
It does work properly when I use my T-Mobile SIM card:
I used the market enabler, but it says my Nexus S is not supported by Google Wallet. Is that so? I don't see why since the The Nexus S has NFC just like the GNEX.
how long did it take you guys to set up... mines bee "verifying your account" for about 10 mins now...

Do you really think Google is that stupid to allow adding a credit card with a fake address like others are trying to do?
Anyways, I have a Canadian credit card with an official US billing address on it. Guess what, Wallet does not work at all on Bell. Even if I put my T-Mobile SIM card on the phone, I'm pretty sure it will not work also with a Canadian card as the financial institution is not registered into Google's Money Network.
We have to wait like every one else... until Google decides to open Wallet in Canada, if it will.
At the rate they open products in Canada, we should have it enabled in about 10 years.
Ya I agree. Its stupid. Sorry Google but USA isn't the only country in the world. This the usa likes to think so. Lol

I just ordered the verizon LTE version and I have read that the phone dialer is there but not accessible.
Has anyone figured out how to get it working?
Thanks in advance

You'd probably need a modified framework, but there's no chance as its impossible to modify anything in system with your device. No root available as yet.
I live in the UK and I'm a little bemused as to why US carriers lock down their users so much:?

It's like an abusive relationship. They abuse us because they can.
On a side note. I didn't end up getting the tablet because apparently Best Buy had the wrong price on Ebay. They cancelled my order and refunded me.
I think they should have had to honor the price but there is no way to open a dispute since the item didn't ship on ebay.
Given that the international devices for the S7 / S7E can manually get Samsung Pay to work (after flashing and installing the apks), how likely is it (theoretically) that Samsung Pay would work for the Note 7?

In relation to what countries? I've got the S7E international version here in Australia (Telstra - G935F) and Samsung Pay works out of the box.

Use android pay samsung pay is said to work at more places because it uses nfc and magnetic reader, it may only work for a credit visa or master internationally otherwise both have a list of banks not very broad, but I belive I saw a Asian bank named. Good luck.

No just like the note 5 international version does not work with Samsung pay in the USA. Not sure why samsung does this. I also want the exynos version and Sim free unlocked but we sacrifice samsung pay

It should work as long as you flash a CSC that supports it. So as long as there is some country somewhere that supports it on the Note 7, it'll work. Just make sure you use the US Samsung Pay apks.

I live in Europe and I am an owner of an A5 2016. It didn't come with spay like every other international phone. I was searching aimlessly on apk mirror and one of them with its framework worked !
I cannot justify if the payment worked because I am not allowed to just steal my dad's card and start making payments with it but it most likely worked.
I am after a format so I can't find the apk. I don't really have that much time to dig in the site again because of homework but I guarantee that one of the apk mirror apks will work.
I really want spay too so if you find the working apk and framework post it so that I can install it again. It won't be useful to me anytime soon but I am on a quest;
I want to make my midranger (in terms of software) as good as any other flagship.:laugh:
So I just tried to setup my Samsung Pay and it says this device is not compatible??!!
I have unlocked model on Sprint.
Just wondering if anyone else has similar issue to know it will self-resolve over time maybe or if something is funky here.
Very annoying as I used it a ton on my S7....
I have no issues using it on my unlocked S9.

I have never used Samsung Pay but Google Pay is working fine on my S9 :good:
I set it all up and went to add my cards but all of them were incompatible. My banks prefer to use their own contactless payment methods or Google Pay.

I"m having the same issue to. Anytime I try to use it, it says to update it. The samsung pay in the galaxy app store is updated. So uninstalling that one and installing the one from the play store says it's incompatible with my phone.
But, it sounds like Samsung is aware of the issue and will be updating the galaxy apps version soon

So I flashed my phone to the sprint FW and that one seems to work fine so must indeed be something with the US unlocked ones maybe on some providers or how it was updated etc.
I just tested mine and it works on the unlocked version.
For those that are working are you US based or intl?
I'm also wondering if it's app ver related, carrier related for unlocked or what lol.
I now have another issue with VM not working so am torn what FW I even want to run now lol. Downfall of early adopter I guess hah
Mine works fine with tmobile
Mine does not work. US unlocked snapdragon model. Keeps telling me to update app but there is not an update.
On T-Mobile US, and it works fine here. I didn't try it until after the day 1 update they pushed yesterday, so maybe that was the key?

I've been having the same issues on my USA unlocked S9+, but there's an update in the Galaxy app store today that finally gets me past that "need an update" screen. Go check!!
There is an update for Samsung pay that came out last night and now it works for me. I updated through the Galaxy app store.
When I use it my phone get stuck in wireless charging mode and to remove it igot reboot phone
I have the S8 Plus Hong Kong variant. Samsung Pay only worked for Hong Kong based banks. Uninstalled the app then installed the latest version on Play Store. Works fine now so Samsung did update the app. I'm pretty sure whoever you bank with needs to have a processing application which is compatible with Samsung Pay.
Does anyone have Samsung pay working on there A70 in Canada? I am on the bell network and it keeps coming up that my device is not compatible in the galaxy store?
Same here
Same as I'm seeing as Samsung Pay, GPay and others won't work. I am on Freedom Mobile and Rogers (personal and work sims). I can't even install Samsung Pay, GPay installs but just does not work.
I did get RBC Wallet to work, so if your bank has their own app then that might be the method to get NFC payments working.

SM-A705MN VERSIONS OUT OF LATIN AMERICA *DO HAVE THE CORRECT RADIO BANDS FOR 4G LTE IN THE UNITED STATES* 1,2,4,5,8,12,66..

OP,
I thought I would just piggyback off your thread instead of starting a new one.... hope that's ok.. :angel:
Sorry you are having the same trouble in Canada.. I am still in my "Honeymoon Period" and can return my unit.. I'm in the middle of assessing whether it's viable to keep my unit based on where I shop...
Samsung Pay works EVERYWHERE here in the U.S.. So I need to really assess whether Google Pay / Walmart Pay cover enough of the merchants I frequent the most or just move over to a Country Specific Galaxy device.. :fingers-crossed:
It's Almost 2020....
Tap-And-Go is the way to go for this era...

Samsung pay was one of the factors to me for upgrading to the A70. I was thinking of flashing the Canadian software for the A705W via Odin but I am pretty sure that won't help.

Please Fill In Some Blanks For Me If You Don't Mind..
So.. you are in Canada, and they have a version of the A70 ( The A705W you mentioned ) that is native to that region and it comes with Samsung Pay already installed?
If that's the case.. may I ask, are you a transplant to that region? why did you not buy a SM-A705W from the start?
I may be *100% Wrong*.... but after my MANY conversations with Samsung Pay Tech Support they said there was no way around it.. that, there are enough Red Flags that a device knows its not in it's intended region and will not allow you to setup Samsung Pay in a different region than where the device was meant to be sold.
S-Pay would not even show up in the Playstore.. Google's or Samsung's for me. I sideloaded it.. older versions.. older framework.. Nada.... Nothing.
But I No Longer Care..
I went out today and tried Google Pay for the 1st time...
YES!!!! :highfive:
"EVERYPLACE " I shop.. Google Pay works! Even the Gas Pumps.. :good:
So that confirms for me that I'm keeping the A70... Now, Stereo Speakers are the only thing I feel is missing but Bluetooth earbuds and some 3.5mm stereo computer speakers in the garage really negate that final complaint.. So, I'm good with what the A70 brings to the table.. Battery and Screen are simply incredible for me.. Fingerprint Recognition is a non-issue on my unit.. as are Ghost Touches.. Face unlock is INSTANTANEOUS . :angel:
Final Question.. It's been so long since I've used Odin.. ( not since 2016 when I murdered my Note 4..) I can't remember... can you flash one software version over another without Root Access? if you can, then what you propose is most certainly worth a try.
But if you need Root Access to switch software versions.. you know you will trip Knox... and you will FOREVER loose the ability to use Samsung Pay..
I hope all works out for you!
Please comeback to this thread and keep us updated! :good:

Ok very valid points here. I did not buy the Canadian Variant as the A705W is $699 CND from the carriers here in Canada. I bought my 705MN unlocked from Amazon for $429 CND.
I have not used ODIN or rooted a phone since my S7 edge. I have yet to confirm if Samsung pay works on the Canadian variant or not. I asked a bell salesman and I got 2 different answers one yes and one no lol.
You are 100% correct that if Knox is tripped even flashing back to stock won't bring Samsung pay back (learned the hard way on my S7 edge).
I am loving the A70 as it is a nice upgrade in my opinion from my S7 edge. Only 3 down falls I have with the phone. Two are the same as you...No Samsung pay...no stereo speakers and no IP rating...other than that I love this device.
Excellent Price You Scored!

I'd Say You Saved A Couple Of Pennies vs Going For The "W" Variant..
Hopefully.. going *Price vs Satisfaction* does not leave you with any remorse.
Honestly.. I know nothing of Canada.. Is there no way Google Pay is a Go up that way?
That's the ONLY thing that swayed the tide as far as me keeping this device.
I don't care about root anymore and it appears between Samsung's Lock on SD SoC's and Developers skipping this device at it's price point..Custom anything may be a No-Go.
So, with the A70's features and Good Lock and (for me) Superb Battery Life.. Widevine L1 and not forgettting G-Pay :good: I'm a happy camper.
At Least.. Until Black Friday / Cyber Monday...

Samsung pay does work here in Canada on all samsung flasgships from S7 up. Unfortunately not on the A70 I guess. I am going to look into Gpay as I hate carrying both a wallet and cell phone all the time lol... phone prices here in Canada are just ridiculous. A new S10+ is $1499 ( from carriers). I am hoping to get a good solid year out of this phone then I may just bite the bullet and go for a Note 10 or Note 11 by that time.
It does now
Samsung a70s Samsung pay is now available in the galaxy store.... It's not available in the Google Play as of yet.

What is your exact model number
SM-A705W
I have a Canadian A70 and I use Samsung Pay. You have to sideload the app though. Get it from apkmirror, along with Samsung Pay Framework so it's all up to date.
While you're at it, get Samsung Internet Browser from there as well. I honestly don't know why Samsung region locks so many of their apps or doesn't update the ones that are already in the device.

Samsung is particularly picky in allowing which of its phones access to Samsung Pay. If your phone isn't intended to be sold in your region(eg you're in Canada but using a Latin American A705MN model), then you won't be able to use Samsung Pay. Only if you had the Canadian specific A705W model would you then be allowed access to Samsung Pay.
I know it's very weird and anti consumer decision but Samsung does this to make the local wireless providers happy.
btw; which model do you have and what's your home country?
