[Q] lost root with update, now google services won't work. - AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey everyone
I got the update from att and I lost root (rooted on mj5 before). I didn't actually want to update but I checked for updates and it did it automatically. My fault I know. Anyway, I had freedom installed and now I can't connect to any Google services. I removed my Google account and now I can't re add it.
I tried removing freedom the exact way it says to and it didn't work.
Any suggestions on what to do? I tried to re root with Kingo but it tells me "no support", which is strange to me because others have successfully used kingo with this update. Even if I'm not rooted, I just want google services working again.
If I was rooted again, I have read a few ways to try to fix the error.
I did try clearing app data for Google services and play store.
Thanks all

[Q] Unrooted supersu google play stopped working

Hey guys, im running a galaxy s4 active i9295 with android 4.2.2.
Everything standard except it was rooted, decided to unroot so I could upgrade to 4.4
and used the supersu unroot to do so, unfortunately as I I did this my google play has stopped working :/.
Ive done all the date/time methods cleared all the data from the apps, even removed my google accounts. Its not even letting me sign back into them or make another account. Im very confused and have little knowledge of what else to do!!
Also rerooted my phone deleted host file and that didnt work, then re edited it like it says in a couple of guides. Also uninstalled google play store with titanium backup and re installed it from a different source and still no luck

Can't Root, Cant access play store, wish I never rooted.

Hi there so heres my story shortened:
>for some reason was getting en error on google play store "insuffient space to install apps" despite having 2gb free space
>saw a root only app they claimed to fix this.
>managed to root device by going down to 10.5.a.0.230 rooting with ezroot then back up too 10.5.1.a.0.292 and was successfully rooted.
>then attempted app that claimed fix didnt work
>tried to sign into banking app i use daily didnt work because they dont allow rooted devices
>since the fix didnt work and i now longer could access my banking app i decided to unroot using SuperSU's interal feature
>then could only access google play store on 4g wifi came up with "check your connection and try again" which you can fix via having root access i believe and changing the hosts file
>at this point i was unrooted, banking app still wasnt letting me in though
>tried same process to reroot, but its not working, in ezroot is says success but flashtool tells me the device doesnt have root access and i cant seem to edit the hosts file so i guess its right
>playstore still isnt working, tried to reroot about 5x and have even done a complete backup and restore in pc companion and it changed nothing.

Flash C6603_10.5.1.A.0.292_Generic_NCB.ftf using Flashtool.
It should solve all of your problems.
As for rooting, I suggest that you follow the guides in this forum because they are already verified to work with Xperia Z.

you
Its easy dude...if u want ur banking app to work on rooted device...just use. ROOT CLOAK. APP...
Hope this helps.
I know it's been said 1000x and I've def been there before. But again, if you've never rooted a device, do yourself a favor and take some time to at least know what you are getting into. It's not for everyone. But just knowing the basic pros/cons, would of helped avoid or solved all of these issues, even prior to rooting. There is a ton of info that's super easy to find on xda that'll save yourself from a headache and hours wasted.

Android Pay Issue with Root

Hey Guys,
I have an original (2013) Moto X 1060 (Verizon) that I rooted using this method. http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x/general/moto-x-root-pogress-60-t3071602 It's been working great with no problems until today when my phone decided to update my google wallet app to the new android pay. Whenever I try to add a card to android pay I'm getting the error "Android Pay Cannot be used...... Google is unable to verify that your device or the software running on it is android compatible."
Googling has led me t believe that this is an error related to the app detecting root. I tried both of these methods, but neither has worked. http://bit.ly/1LnwzAZ http://bit.ly/1LnwEog . I've tried each separately with rebooting in between as well as trying them together all to no avail.
Other than following the guide above the only root-related things I have modified on the phone are the removal of some verizon apps via titanium backup and adding the following xposed module: "NoSafeVolumeWarning".
One thing that I noted was when I uncheck "Enable Superuser" inside of SuperSu 2.46 it displays a message saying "Uninstall Failed !" It still displays the "Superuser is disabled and hidden" underneath the box and if i enable it again and disable it it does not pop up with the uninstall failed message. Does this have something to do with write protection?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
Adam

Having the exact same issue. Just upgraded to 5.1 today, xposed Rootcloak as well as No Device Check installed. Also tried Disable SU. Still get the same issue.
Same. I tried uninstalling SU, Hide My Root, and Rootcloak...nothing has worked. Found out today that the app updated when I went to buy something at Walgreen's. How ****ing embarrassing is that?
So I have not yet found a solution to this and am still hoping someone has one. In the mean time, you can install this app http://www.apk4fun.com/share/7185/ (doesn't need to be from this site, it's just an old version of google wallet, and the one I used), go into settings>apps>google play services>manage data clear all data, and reboot. I just tried it at cub foods and it worked fine, but of course you do have to go into the app first, and I had to disconnect it from the app store with titanium backup so it wouldn't update to android pay again.
Was able to get Amex card working after uninstalling Xposed. However, I think I'm going to pass on Android Pay until they allow pin codes on the app, not the phone.
Same problem, few apps frozen with TiBu and xposed installed. Any other work around? s

check to see if your phone allows pin codes to be deactivated at times. I have mine set to not be used at home work and if I am carrying the phone. It is quite useful feature in settings Lockscreen but I am on COS 12.1 OnePlus basically CM
I haven't tried it yet, but I think they only way we'll get this working on root is to install it on stock unrooted, back it up with TiB or Helium, root and then reinstall/restore.
Lots of fail here as well. All the tricks you all listed + some others. It seems there is a lack of consistency for those that resolved. Some just say disabling root, uninstall busybox, uninstall xposed, rootcloak, device checker for play services, etc.
Nothing yet has worked for me. Luckily I backed up Wallet just before taking the update, so I may go back until the community has a solution.

I'm in the same boat. Couldn't get AP to work. Just loaded up the previous version of Wallet. Now have two wallet apps, but whatever. Both appear to be working.
Has anyone tried to get Android Pay working by re-locking the bootloader and temp unrooting on a Nexus device (say, a tablet), then getting AP up and running, and then checking to see if it was usable on your other device(s)??....I was curious if Android Pay would work on ALL of your devices once it was set up properly. Working with lock, unlocking, rooting, etc. is much easier on a Nexus than it would be to work on a Moto, or similar.
Does this make any sense?

Tried AP for the first time at Panera today and failed...seems even with Root Cloak on AP and Google Play Service as well as No Device Check, it still fails.

Try adding another gmail account to your phone and then choose the new account in the playstore app..once everything loads, choose your original account back...should work

This is what shows after I open Gmail app. I don't understand, google play services is in my app list and appear to be running. I'm going to do a factory reset on my phone and start over the process.
