Rooting your Galaxy S6 will disable one of its most useful features
If you’re considering rooting your Galaxy S6, you may want to listen up, as it has been brought to our attention that doing so will disable Samsung Pay — a service you may not think you use, but probably do.
For those unaware, Samsung Pay allows customers to authorise payments through their smartphone using their fingerprint. This not only applies to Play Store purchases, but PayPal transactions, too.
However, that’s not its only use.
Thanks to the South Korean company’s recent acquisition of LoopPay, Galaxy S6 owners can now use their smartphone’s integrated MST chip to pay in retail stores. When users tap their handset on the side of a card reader, their debit card details are transferred, and all they have to do is enter their PIN.
So if you want to start or continue taking advantage of this feature, we’d recommend that you don’t root your device.
