What I Did

1. I flashed the decrypt kernel for the N Beta through ADB

2. I did a factory reset to finish the decrypt process

3. I booted into TWRP using ADB (I did it this way to keep stock recovery, you can just flash TWRP if you like)

4. Once in TWRP, though ADB I typed "ADB Shell"
Then typed "echo SYSTEMLESS=true>>/data/.supersu"
Followed by "echo BINDSYSTEMXBIN=false>>/data/.supersu"

5. I proceeded to flash the latest Supersu Beta

6. Set up Android Pay and profit!

It is pretty much the exact process for Android Pay with Systemless root, but you do HAVE to have decrypted or else this will not work.

I am system rooted with BusyBox and V4A installed and SELinux permissive on DP3. I haven't tested Android Pay, but I was able to add a card without a problem. Is that indicative that it should work? I had the opportunity to test it today but didn't.

From my experience, if you successfully add a card then it works. Usually prevent you from adding a card. I also use Safetynet Helper Sample and make sure it passes

Mine passes lol. I'm confused as to why it let you add a card!
Guy in the N development thread showed AP working for him and he is system rooted as well. Probably a bug... but it'd be nice if Google were allowing rooted users to use AP since they know we find workarounds anyway. :p

That guy was me. Passes safety net fine. All I did was root and added the card. Not sure probably a bug that will be fixed. Until then I'll enjoy not having to make any extra steps.

Don't like me......... BITE ME!!!

It is possible flash a custom kernel and still have Android pay working?

It works with current and prior Pure Nexus (MTC19T). Lately, I have flashed the FiFix_ Google Dialer zip (as noted by Beanstown) after the other steps to make Android Pay work. Using it on Rooted N now but just came from Pure Nexus.
