Android Pay not working Xperia XA - model F3115

Hi Sony,

My F3115 received OTA for 7.0 Build number 33.3.A.0.131. Android Pay can add card but payment was not successful. The phone vibrated a bit when scanned at the merchant terminal but unsuccessful to pay. This card worked before when I was using Marshmallow on the same phone.

It would be good for someone who can test or share their experience on Android Pay.

I use Android Pay all the time on my Sony Xperia XA (F3115) model, it worked fine when it came with Android 6.0 (Marshmallow), when I updated to Android 7.0 (Nougat) I had to go back into the Android Pay app and change its permissions and settings then it work perfectly again

@dobbonz Thanks for the tips. I checked and found that camera and storage were not allowed. Now I allowed them in permissions. Will give an update next time I use Android Pay again.

Update: even though I allowed those permissions it still does not work. Tried different eftpos terminals the same result. Android pay did not seem to detect terminals. Build 33.3.A.0.131. Hope someone can confirm this build works.

Update:

Found the cause was due to mobile data disabled. After enabling mobile data it was working without issues.
