[haoyangw]

How about (because my Automate flow stopped working for some reason, and i decided to switch to magisk only methods):

Magisk Method Gpay SQLite Fix.....

Changelog:

v1.7 - 12/07/2019

Thanks to @Didgeridoohan for the updates, in all my years of dabbling in linux and bash, i'd never come across subshells....

This change removes the possible issues with other modules, such as i was having with the Nova Launcher magisk module.

An update from any version below v1.7 is recommended. For those on versions below v1.6, please follow the terminal commands shown inthe Upgrade Notes section below

New:

uninstall.sh:

- Script is now run in a subshell to avoid blocking and sleep issues with other modules and processes

gpay.sh:


- Script is now run in a subshell to avoid blocking and sleep issues with other modules and processes


v1.6 - 11/07/2019

Only Full Fix & 440 Only versions remain, the Sleep 30 Edition has gone as both the Full and 440 Only versions now both use sleep cycles to wait for required binaries and the dg.db database to be available before proceeding in the service.d/gpay.sh and modules/uninstall.sh scripts

New:

install.sh:

- Removed chattr for added complexity and sleep states that was causing delays and blocking

uninstall.sh:

- Removed chattr for added complexity and sleep states that was causing delays and blocking
- Added checking for dg.db database and chmod - sleep states added until both are accessible
- This is the 1st version of the module that *should* FULLY uninstall

gpay.sh:

- Removed chattr for added complexity and sleep states that was causing delays and blocking
- Added checking for dg.db database and chmod - sleep states added until both are accessible

Credits:

Added checking for boot complete & db.db availability due to feedback from @jcmm11
Added checking for chmod availability due to feedback from @Didgeridoohan

Both were suggesting similar things to me via different methods at the same time

Older changelog hidden below...

v1.5 - 06/07/2019

Only Full Fix & 440 Only versions updated at this time....

New:

install.sh:

Attributions for those who made this all possible

-BostonDan - for the OP and original fix

-braveheartleo - for the chattr suggestion

-Didgeridoohan - for the working method to hide Google Services Framework sub services (and therefore Google Services Framework as a whole) via magiskhide in a script loop

-Updated some wording....

gpay.sh:

-Added better permissions checking and logging of actual permissions. If there are issues with chmod then it should be eaiser to see...

-Adding better error checking and logging where i can....

Fixed:

install.sh:

Google Services Framework is now hidden via magiskhide via the install script - thanks to Didgeridoohan

Outstanding issues:

uninstall.sh:

Uninstall script still fails to work, working on it.....


v1.4 - 04/07/2019

New:

install.sh:

Install time info, so people will know without having to go to terminal to see if SQLite3 or Chattr are found.

No more terminal troubleshooting, hopefully....

Required files/packages are now checked and their paths shown (if they exist) or warnings given (if theyre missing), to user at install time:
--BusyBox (to provide chattr)
--SQLite3

Packages being hidden by MagiskHide are listed and their hidden status shown to user:
--<packagename>: hidden successfully - for packages newly hidden
--<packagename>: already hidden/not hidden successfully - for packages already hidden or unable to be hidden (assume the former (already hidden) more likely than the latter)

Packages having their caches/storage cleared are listed and their clearing status shown to user (currently only Pay):
-- <packagename>: successfully cleared
-- <packagename>: not successfully cleared)

gpay.sh (renamed from server.sh in common (was being renamed to gpay.sh on copy)):

On first run a log is written to /cache/payfixfirstrun.log, logged are:
--SQLite3 and chattr binary locations
--The output success/fail of chattr, permissions and SQL commands

uninstall.sh:

On uninstall a log is written to /cache/payfixuninstall.log, logged are:
--SQLite3 and chattr binary locations
--The output success/fail of chattr, permissions and SQL commands

Fixed:

Slight boo boo at not adding chattr to the end of the file check eval in gpay.sh - now all possible paths (termux/bin/xbin) are checked for chattr. Been hella busy, bound to miss stuff, sorry folks....

NOTE: Only the Full Edition (first link) has been updated to v1.4, the others will be done later today


v1.3 - 20/06/2019

Added additional system/bin path for sqlite as per issue reported by 00formulahawk:



Note: this would have stopped the gpay.sh script in /data/adb/service.d from doing the required sqlite3 changes, rendering the fix invalid under these circumstances...

Loophole closed.

Added extra chattr path possiblity
Added sleep between commands


v1.2
Changed module name to a shorter name without the typo (calling it Google Play lol)
Shortened zip and module name to make it easier to read when selecting and installing from local storage
Added hiding of the suggested packages via install.sh:
-com.google.android.gms
-com.google.android.gsf
-com.google.android.apps.walletnfcrel
Added clearing of Google Pays cache and storage via install.sh
Add uninstall.sh to:
-remove chattr blocking
-reset /data/data/com.google.android.gms/databases/dg.db to default 660 permissions
-remove /data/adb/service.d/gpay.sh
Changed 444 permission only version to 440 according to many recent posters 440 is good enough

v1.1

-All editions now using service.d by default (instead of post-fs-data which is blocking), on install service.sh is copied to /service.d/gpay.sh

Special thanks to V4A Magisk Module which i noticed copies a service.sh to service.d...i backtraced their install routine and borrowed (stole)
their method (using the $NVBASE variable) which i hadnt seen documented before...thanks V4A crew

They use (in part of their on_install() routine:



I borrowed (stole) this idea and cheekily changed to



Install.sh and module.prop also tidied up

Requirements:

SQLite3 binary - i have included one on my github for armv7 chipset devices. SQLite3 binaries for other chipsets may be found on Magisk Repo

For arm64-v8a (aarch64) users, an SQLite binary is available from the Magisk Repo: SQLite for ARM aarch64 devices

For all/other architectures, theres some provided here (untested by me): https://xdaforums.com/general/general/binary-sqlite3-binary-android-pie-t3721530


Installation:

1) Install an SQLite binary (i offer an armv7 one in my downloads section below)
2) Install a Gpay SQLite Fix zip form below (Full Edition highly recommended for most people)
3) Add card
4) Reboot

It *should* be that simple.


Upgrade process (version v1.6 and above):

- Uninstall previous version
- Reboot
- Install latest

Upgrade process (versions below 1.6:

Because the new version no longer uses chattr, for anyone using a verison older than v1.6, you will want to issue the following commands via a terminal to put /data/data/com.google.android.gms/databases/dg.db in its original state before installing the latest version:



- Uninstall previous version
- Reboot
- Install latest


Uninstall:

1) Remove via Magisk Manager - all changes except packages hidden via MagiskHide and clearing the cache of Google Pay are reverted
2) Reboot

Just to share, full edition worked perfectly on my Google Pixel 4 XL running Android 10 rooted with Magisk v20.1. Magisk Hide enabled but only for Google Play Services(which is the default). Didn't turn on Magisk Hide for Google Pay, but could already add a card in Google Pay. Haven't tried paying at a terminal yet, but I believe it will work Gonna update again when I get to try it

 

[prgopala]

This is not working for me anymore.
I updated my Pixel 4 to Nov Patch. Did everything like op (which worked before on Oct Patch).
Google Pay states that Device is rooted when trying to add a card (tried various) No attest values in dg.db.
I'm using stable magisk 20.1 and safty net passes.
Anyone else?

I managed to get this working only by running magisk in 'core only mode' on a Pixel 4 (latest November update). I could add a card which could not be added earlier. Also i haven't tried paying using the phone yet so will have to wait for my next purchase.
It also means i cannot run any module.

Just to share, full edition

Sorry, but full edition of what? You mean stable magisk is it?
Would you mind putting down a step by step method ?

Sorry, but full edition of what? You mean stable magisk is it?
Would you mind putting down a step by step method ?

Oh I meant that I installed the variant of the Magisk Module(quoted in my post above) called 'Full Edition'. All I did was install that module, install the SQlite for Arm64 Magisk module, and reboot. Then Google Pay allowed me to add a card even in non-core only mode. I'm on the latest November update as well.

Hide all Google play services you'll be good

This worked for me on my Pixel 3 XL. Thank you!

november?

Yeah. Just followed the above steps after installing the November update and rerooting. No issues after that.

Thanks.
I figured out that xposed was causing the issue and once i hide xposed installer app(edxposed) in magisk hide google pay worked fine.
So if people are still having issues then try hiding xposed as well.

Edit: So adding card worked and is still working fine (added another card). But could only pay once and the next time i tried to tap for a payment got error that the phone cannot be used to make payments. So something is definitely being detected outside of this 'dg.db' file thing.

 

[Ch3vr0n]

I'm not using ANY module outside of magisk' systemless hosts, no Xposed or anything like that at all. Guess I'll try to steps again

[dipstik]

i was able to add my card after this:
Hide Google pay, Google play services, Google services framework,
clear Google pay data after update
and apply module.

OMG! Been trying to fix Google pay for ages on my Samsung A70 running Lineage 16. This works thankyou so much for this script! Magisk need to get this in their repo so easy.

I also had to change build fingerprint as I was failing safteynet profile check which I did a while ago but would still not add cards to Google pay.

Installed "full" version of the script and BOOM everything works

I don't have /com.google.android.gms. What should I do with it? Thank you.

 

[sliding_billy]

I don't have /com.google.android.gms. What should I do with it? Thank you.

That's because it is /data/data/com.google.android.gms. What you do with it is explained in the OP.

 

[Kohba]

Thank you. I don't have it there.

 

[qman66]

Randomly root got detected today by Google. Tried op again didn't work then tried the full version module 1.7 and that didn't work either

 

[simplepinoi177]

Thank you. I don't have it there.

Would you be able to put up a screenshot...? It might help things...

 

[Kohba]

I've done a complete reinstall and it works. I do not know what went wrong. Thanks.

Magisk Module Update


Just checking on some other code on my github and noticed some open issue reports on the module, one reporting an incorrect path for Termux's sqlite binary...from some time ago, weird, i didnt get any notifications, but ive updated the module as per the request

This only affects new installs for those who use Termux....maybe youre Termux user and tried the module and it failed, time to try again, and sorry, but i got the paths included in my script from a termux user back when i first made it, as i dont use termux i took that path as correct, maybe it changed since then? who knows...anyways, my bad....fixed now


Changelog:

v1.8 9/11/2019

As per issue request on github from Mexit & nyetwurk
Sorry to took me so long to reply to the issue ...i didnt get any notification....

Minor bugfix - for new installs, for users of Termux

install.sh:

-Update termux's sqlite3 path from

/data/data/com.termux/files/usr/lib/sqlite3

to

/data/data/com.termux/files/usr/bin/sqlite3

gpay.sh:

-Update termux's sqlite3 path from

/data/data/com.termux/files/usr/lib/sqlite3

to

/data/data/com.termux/files/usr/bin/sqlite3

p.s. i took the original paths from a termux user, maybe they got it wrong, or its changed?
Anyways, hopefully thats a fix

For those looking for it, the Gpay Fix Magisk Module is in my sig below, or here .

Works perfectly on my OP6T, big thank you to anybody who put time and effort into this, much appreciated
