Please HELP get Redmagic 5G NFC GPay fix: Takes 10m of time!

[mslezak]

Guys - the easiest way to get development started on a new device is to NOTIFY the device manufacturer that there is a NEED for the company to fix issues. The first issue is THE BOOTLOADER UNLOCK METHOD BREAKS THE FINGERPRINT SENSOR. This is obviously highly undesirable for anyone who wants ROOT. *** NOTE THIS CAN BE AVOIDED ENTIRELY THROUGH THE ROOT BYPASS METHOD (FP STILL WORKS), AND A USER HAS FOUND HOW TO RECALIBRATE THE FP SENSOR AFTER A BL UNLOCK, XDA POS: https://forum.xda-developers.com/nu.../guide-calibration-finger-print-loss-t4132961

The main issue is Google Pay does NOT WORK with NA and Global ROMs. It reports 2 cards instead of 1 card when you go to a terminal, so you can NEVER make a payment!!!

So how can we fix this issue? COMPLAIN!!! We got source this way already (THANK YOU FOR YOUR HELP GUYS WE DID IT!)

METHOD #1
EMAIL Nubia customer support (probably our best path) at [email protected]

You can simply report the issue similar to this message in your email:

Google Pay does not work with NFC which your Global and North American ROM claim to support. It reports 2 cards at the terminal instead of 1 card so payment fails EVERY time. This is an issue across the world for everyone with Google Pay. WE NEED THIS FIXED AS IT IS A LISTED FEATURE OF THE PHONE THAT DOES NOT WORK.

Please fix as soon as possible.

Post something like I did here - GOOGLE PAY DOES NOT WORK. FIX NFC ON GLOBAL AND NA VARIANT ROMS ASAP.

Please start posting comments here to release the source code so we can begin custom kernel and ROM development as soon as possible! Thank you everyone who contacted [email protected] or posted to the original GitHub issue, now we just need them to follow through!!! WE HAVE STRENGTH IN NUMBERS.

I just did it too(both ways), but I don't know how much they care about the emails, I sent 3 before, for other things, without any reply

How much pay?

 

[nexuses]

Guys! They do care about the device! I've emailed them three times, and I've got replies everytime!

ZTE released the source code for the Red Magic 5G... hopefully this will kick start development for this phone because it has so much potential.

Try asking about an older device that they dont produce/sell anymore. If they eager to answer they might care about devices that are older than 1 or 2 months

Well, the future updates are the only reason that hold me back from buying this phone! So I'll give it sometime to see what happens.. We will see..

 

[mslezak]

Keep contacting guys..

Nevermind you closed the one with the new title ... Keeps this alive. Thanks Admins.... I don't see why closing this and opening another that resolves remaining ones is a problem. When I link it elsewhere it still looks like the original issue where we fixed or worked around 2 of them and now the last to address is GPay.

Also, the bootloader unlock on the Redmagic 5G disables the fingerprint sensor completely - the error message says to contact Nubia support. The device will not even allow a fingerprint to be added. The Android installation detects the sensor on the "back of the phone" i.e. missing the Goodix in-screen fingerprint location, so it can not be added. Later trying to add an FP results in an error:

Loss of fingerprint calibration data
Loss of fingerprint calibration data was detected.
Currently unable to complete fingerprint entry,

Please fix as soon as possible.

You can enter *#*#9959#*#* on the dial pad to enter fingerprint calibration mode, and then calibrate the fingerprint, it will return to normal

Sorry, it does not work here. I dialed the code but It doesn't do anything.

Johnny can you explain the calibration steps for everyone with this issue? We've seen the factory calibration device that no one can find for sale anywhere. But some have managed with using their finger, a piece of dark paper, and the back of a fingernail. But that doesn't seem to work for all.

You can use special fingerprint calibration weights to calibrate fingerprints. You can use weights to calibrate at some professional repair points.

That dial code doesn't work for some reason.

 

[mslezak]

Anyways the code is *#9959# to start calibration off the TG group it works. Although what to do after launching it I have no idea.
