Android Pay can't be used - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer

So Android Pay isn't working on my device I get the following error
"Android Pay can't be used
Google is unable to verify that your device or the software running on it is android compatible"
I was using it before without issue, then it just stopped working. I have even factory reset my device and I still am not able to get it to work. And no I have not used Package Disabler to remove anything, in fact, I do not even have it on my phone. And I am obviously not and have not previously rooted since (last I saw) it's not even an option.
Any thoughts?

Do you have displaying scaling enabled to condensed or changes your dpi?

That's your issue right there lol
You'll have to disable it to use android pay.
One of my friends had the same issue, you'll most likely have to wipe cache and data for android pay after you disable condensed mode

Thats so dumb, do you know if there is an ADB command to modify Buildprop to change the DPI?

Thanks for your help good sir, I am sorely disappointed that this is happening. I love the condensed look....

I have the same issue with condensed dpi. Anyway, Samsung Pay works better.

Moto 3.0.49
Moto Actions 1.11.33
Motorola Boot Services 4.0.0
Motorola Camera 5.0.47.7
Motorola FM Radio 02.00.0045

Handful of new permissions too... Didn't keep track as they went by, just approved them all.

Sometimes the Play Store gets bugged and doesn't notify you of updates right away then weeks later they all show up at once.
Hey guys I actually noticed something.
The playstore updates of these apps removed the moto option from settings.
Running factory image.

New Moto Camera update broke the camera on my XT1550.. using it with dpi modded to 280. Front camera / video recording buttons are out of place, which means tapping them takes a picture. Uninstalled and reverted to original version.

What exactly does that matter? I just checked and it still shows up on the apps menu which is probably the only place it should be anyway.

Same here lol flashed a few different roms and then went back to stock just to see. Kinda stinks because I like to use nova to hide any apps that can affect system wide functions so when it was in settings it had a nice home.

Why don't I have new features?

There are some new features like Display Scaling and Identify callers, but my up to date S7 edge doesn't have these features in settings at all. What's going on? I have all packages enabled.

Display scaling you can easily get back through an activity selector (or just use Nova launcher)
I use this for display scaling

There is also a white page app you can use to block unknown numbers

Moto Z DPI change

Hey guys I changed the DPI of my Moto Z from 640 which is so annoying to 580 on the phone. When I did this on my Galaxy S7 Edge everything looked great but now the play store looks a little weird (coloums where you see your downloaded apps and some weird triangular looking icon appears), also in Chrome in Bookmarks the icons next to the website are all big and fuzzy looking. Is there anyway to do anything about this or am I SOL? Please advise, anyone with knowledge of this... Thank you so much in advance!

Did you use ADB to change the DPI? Try resetting data on the Playstore and then rebooting. That may fix it. If it does, we can talk about the bookmarks. For the record the DPI is totally wrong and you were exactly right to change it. With Android 7.0 it is right in the settings and we don't have to root or use ADB to change it or deal with any Playstore problems.

Did you reboot?
Changing DPI causes some weirdness until a reboot.
I changed to a few different DPIs earlier, 534, 540, 560, 580 and 600, all throw Moto Display off. That was a deal beaker for me.
-edit: Just checked at 560, no weirdness in Chrome Beta or the Play Store.

No problem.
For what it's worth: After I disabled these I booted to Recovery and wiped the cache partition.
It was stuttering and laggy for the day, but after updating everything and a couple of reboots things have seemed to settle in nicely. Good luck!

It was either AudioConnectionService or SapaMonitor.
You can tell if you go:
Settings>Sounds>Sound Quality and Effects>Adapt Sound.
If adapt sound opens up then you are good. If adapt sound doesn't open after you tap on it, then you would need to re-enable one of the above. Sorry I don't remember exactly which one it was. But, its one of those. I actually have them both enabled with no change in performace or battery life btw.
Let me know if you need more help.

Searches are great things.
Flash the U firmware.
Yeah? Cause searching has provided terrible results on the mobile app and I'm currently throttled so Google results take forever to load and yet I still tried and came up with Jack ****. So do you actually know or not?
