This is a fix for google wallet to let you login and has been confirmed it will let you buy things after doing it. I am making a new thread so it doesnt get buried in the Google wallet stuck at initializing your device thread. Be sure to thank jkt97401 for finding it and DZLRULZ for doing it and confirming he could buy things again in the thread posted below. I also did it to confirm it works to allow login again.

THIS WILL NOT FIX SECURE ELEMENT BRICKS!

EDIT: this fix has been blocked from my understanding in order to continue to use wallet you have to leave the change and not revert back to the original build prop however you are welcome to try out reverting it.

+1 another one confirming this fix works. I'm HTC dev unlocked as well and the unsupported device message comes back but hey at least it works.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] ckoadiyn:
It only comes back I'd you re enable root tho :p
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] kcodya:
Woo hooo, it worked! Time to get my Cherry Berry Chiller on at McDonald's!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] frieked:
Not sure if it's related but twice since I implemented this fix, I've gotten stuck at "unlocking google wallet" after I enter my pin. I reboot my phone and it works normally... at least for a while.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jgalan14:
Not really unsupported will be there ifyou grant access or not, it will still work tho that's a diferent thing, any developers thing this will mess up and try to changed device to evo? Like for example if Google wallet will recognize the build.prop was changed? I mean there is a reason why they blocked the evo
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] wytecaztle:
It Worked google wallet activated without turning off root I used Romtoolbox lite check out the sig.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] PaulHBK:
Nice to see there is a workaround but Im waiting for official support, seeing how sensitive the Wallet app has been. I don't want to do anything that may risk breaking the secure element...
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] butterbuns:
The services are back up and running.. i did nothing today and my card has been added..
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] brnail:
I also would prefer not to change the build prop. I am still stuck at activating account, so I don't think this is officially resolved yet.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] wytecaztle:
Can someone post up stock builprop from these two edits for the EVO didn't save it.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] nabbed:
You should remove the picture from your signature. It makes you look like a coal and oil industry stooge.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Curb71:
So without root there is no fix?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] gpz1100:
Mine activates fine, but gets stuck on adding the google prepaid card.

Fully stock but rooted here.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] ckoadiyn:
Weird I couldn't get it to do anything even log in did you already have it set up but no card added?

nope not at the moment.

and you did this fix? And reverted back to stock build prop? It took mine a minute but it ended up adding it..
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] ckoadiyn:
Also I was some what scared to do this too but I'm not going to wait forever for them to fix this problem. Since it could take as long of a wait as we may need a OTA. As long as you do what's posted it will work if you do something diff well ymmv... The secure element may be somewhat fickle however I feel ours is not as fickle as the other devices. As I have seen people say they didn't clear it ran ruu and rooted and it still worked...
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] gpz1100:
Negative. After bricking my last evo 4g lte's nfc, i'm being very cautious with anything pertaining to this.

I did call google wallet shortly after posting and they confirmed that it's still not fixed for the evo lte. While this work around may work, it's troubling that google doesn't officially whitelist the device again. There has to be a reason for this. I prefer to wait until it's cleared through official channels.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] ckoadiyn:
O ok lol and yeah I don't understand what happened either... Would be nice if we could get the dl did they do something to a server was this device not supported officially but worked w gwallet something ya know. Where we all not to get the 10$
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Cuppeerr:
If it helps when resetting google wallet after the fix it would get to 100% and not hang on 99%:)
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] ckoadiyn:
I hadn't tried to reset yet as my phone is good atm as far as tons and go so thanks for the test man!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] ckoadiyn:
No need to clear settings unless you are going to be using wallet n what not and it will always hang when the build prop is at original state due to Google blocking us that goes from clearing to setting g it up.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] ckoadiyn:
If you replace it make sure it is good before you walk out of the store and if you don't need wallet right now don't touch it root unlock and flash away then you can worry about wallet after Google fixes it.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] JT114881:
I was able to reset right after adding the prepaid card and it reset all the way this time. Now doing htc unlock and installing a ROM. :)
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] FlowingAway:
Wtf is this? I see some others have this too... Something smells fishy.

I think they locked us out on purpose until they find a safe way to clear settings on this phone without bricking the secure element...it's not so simple.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] StormMcCloud:
Hahaha what the hell. I reboot my phone and for some reason google wallet initializes when it boots back on. So I type in my pin and see nothing has changed so I close it off. I then decide what the hell I will try an activate my card thing on there for sh*ts and giggles. I go to open google wallet again and BAM "Unfortunately Google Wallet has not been certified in your country or on your device/carrier."

**edit** Upon further investigation it would appear this is now a common issue.

WTF google?

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] klbjr:
I did the buildprop edit & finally got my card added but it seems like there is a problem linking my original account with this new one. See by the first pic they gave me the $10 again for signing up but it doesn't have the money that I added when I first set it up a couple weeks back. Its in my transactions but it doesn't show in my current balance.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] JT114881:
Speaking as someone who did phone support for 4 years, this will accomplish nothing (except annoy innocent people) if you are only talking to tier 1. You need to talk to a manager or the manager's manager and bug them.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] detox702:
I just reset my build.prop to see if wallet has been fixed. With an original build.prop file, it's working. No GT-I9300 fix necessary. Haven't tried purchasing yet, though.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] dpilcher:
Found out that I did not change the first of the three changes in build prop. Changed all three, uninstalled the update to wallet, cleared wallet, disabled SU, rebooted, installed update to wallet from market, opened wallet, added card....FINALLY have my $10!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Neipas09:
you're lucky it worked. This is what i get on a stock build.prop

View attachment 1134818
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] dpilcher:
Looks like you may have left one unchanged since ur Sig is still showing 9300
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Neipas09:
No that is what it shows on a STOCK!!! build.prop

My phone says 9300 because i put the build hack back on my phone.

9300 = Good!

Stock = shat!

I think what some of us are forgetting to do is the hokey pokey, and then turn yourself around. I've done the hokey pokey without turning myself around, and I've turned around without doing the hokey pokey.

Google Wallet fix:

Use at your own risk... I'm not responsible for any damage to ur phone.

You need a file explorer that can change read/write permissions, I use root explorer.

I cleared Google wallet from settings, apps, all apps, select wallet. I cleared all and cache.

Open your file browser, system and find build.prop

Make sure to set file browser to read/write, on top of screen with root explorer.

Select build.prop with long press, open in text editor.

I've included photos, change lines lines 13 & 64 only. Make ur 2 lines like what my photos show... Read carefully....

ro.product.model=

ro.product.device=

to both equal this: GT-I9300

Save while exiting out of build.prop, go to super user settings. Turn super user off.

Reboot phone.... Test Google wallet to see if works, better use wifi to register first time, takes time to configure....

I turned super user back on after getting wallet working.

Worked for me, let me know or pm me questions.

I don't claim to be the one who figured this out, worked for me, trying to help others.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] PaulHBK:
Well, finally gave in and did this hack. Appears to have worked (although i didn't turn Super User off before rebooting). Just have to try and make a purchase...
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] StormMcCloud:
No joy. Followed the steps to the T and am still getting not certified device.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] imex99:
Take screen shots of what u edited in the build prop, u cleared wallet also?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] StormMcCloud:
You have to first be able to get into wallet to clear wallet.

As far as screen shots go it's not really hard to match up words. Plus you saying edit lines 13 and 64 only doesn't exactly make sense, "ro.product.model=" is line 10 in my phones build.prop and I highly doubt "ro.product.device=" is line 64.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] ckoadiyn:
The fix above is diff from op how other then ur line numbers?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] ckoadiyn:
Super user off is just to get rid of the unsupported device message.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] StormMcCloud:
As far as I can tell it is the same "fix" but now with pictures.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] butterbuns:
Yea and if you can't clear the google settings its pretty worthless. I'm not breaking my secure element
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] aFoodStampBaby:
Is it GT-19300 or l9300 or I9300
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] aFoodStampBaby:
Never mind I figured it out. Worked great I'm back in action. Thanks bud. Hey do u think if I change it back to stock it would work this time?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Socrguru:
I get tired of editing things manually, so I made a script to edit the build.prop for us! (Based on the HTCLinkifyDispatcher Fix by smw6180).

This will fix the lines in build.prop so you can try to fix Google Wallet. Steps:

1. Reset Wallet from within the app (if you can)

2. Uninstall Wallet updates through Play Market

3. Settings > Apps > Wallet - Clear Data (mine was grayed out because of uninstalling Wallet first) and Stop the app

4. Reboot into recovery

5. Flash WalletFix.zip, clear cache/dalvik cache, and reboot to system

6. Update Wallet through Play Market

7. Setup Market - should work!

8. Reboot to recovery

9. Flash WalletFix-revert.zip and reboot to system

10. Done!

Thanks....it work for me

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Knight2011:
Would leaving it at GT-I9300 cause a problem? Every time i set it back to the original i get the "not certified in your country". Google needs to fix this.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Socrguru:
I was having that problem too. I've left it as a GT-I9300 all of today so far and haven't had any problems.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] imex99:
If they don't match up, different phones build props could be different bc of rooted roms...

Use the guide as reference to change the lines according to ur build prop...
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] imex99:
Clearing google wallet is through settings of ur phone, apps and all, go to wallet and clear... Settings aren't ur wallet settings.

Go into ur phone settings and apps.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] xSLAYERx:
I just tried this and it does work with a changed build.prop, however one thing i noticed is that it borked visual voicemail, i had 3 messages i didnt listen to and the message indicator turned from green with original build.prop to red with the changed build.prop indicating VVM was broken. I set it back to the original build.prop and I cant get into google wallet again. Google needs to fix this. There must be a way I can have both VVM and Google wallet.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] reissc1:
Thanks for making another easy to use zip! Worked perfectly
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] salvasaur:
So for everyone getting the "not certified" error, aFoodStampBaby might have found a fix.

Just change ro.product.device to read "htc_jewel" instead of just "jewel"
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Socrguru:
Google Voice, maybe? They really do need to get this crap figured out, though.

No problem - glad I could help!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] ipclark1:
So for those of us that can't even get into the app to clear settings because of device/carrier certification error are we screwed?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] JT114881:
I am interested as to why this would work. Has anyone tried changing ro.product.device to anything else?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] unknown_owner:
I at least got past that damn message that it was unsupported. I think if you change it to anything other than jewel, it will get you past the unsupported message.

EDIT: Won't let me add prepaid card though. I'll just wait for a fix from google or for Sprint to release their wallet.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] moses2303:
^^This...I didn't root before using wallet and now I can't get into the app because of the device/carrier certification error. Can't change my build.prop without root right?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] butterbuns:
Correct
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Socrguru:
Not necessarily, especially if you're already rooted. I've had that a number of times (after setting Wallet up). I've just uninstalled Wallet updates from Play Market and cleared the app data through Settings > Apps, then done all the build.prop stuff.

That being done, you can then clear settings from within Wallet to be able to flash a new ROM.

If you're not rooted, rooting doesn't wipe your phone, right? Just unlocking does? You could root to change build.prop without unlocking...?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] unknown_owner:
I don't think that secure element is broken unless you get the actual secure element error msg which people have gotten: "The Secure Element has stopped responding. Please contact Google Wallet support."
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] ipclark1:
I finally got back in by editing build.prop after all..just needed a reset derr
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] leebo:
Tried this. Didn't work.

But then I thought to UN install the Wallet update, clear the Wallet data, and reboot.

Presto! Of course, now I'm back to the "can't add card" problem.

But hey, at least I have a different screen to look at now!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] salvasaur:
You have to reboot after every build.prop edit
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] unknown_owner:
I was able to add a prepaid card but every time I switch back to the stock build.prop, I get the unsupported device error.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] butterbuns:
That's cause the network sees you as a LTE user and google turned off the service for LTE users.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] StormMcCloud:
Exactly, basically the only thing we can do right now is wait and hope that google decides to fix this.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] moses2303:
I contacted support for google wallet, pretty much got the story that everyone else is saying with it being down so they can repair it etc. I asked if it was FOR SURE coming back and wasn't dropped by Sprint or something-as thats been rumored here. He assured me that it would be up and running with the dreaded "SOON" moniker.

So no eta, but it will be back, at least according to this guy in tech support. He also sent me an email and said I would be on a list of people to be notified when it would return. His follow up email is below.

Thank you for getting in touch with our team. Google Wallet is temporarily

unavailable on your device and our engineering team is working hard to

make sure Google Wallet is working as intended. We will be sure to let you

know when full functionality has resumed.

Thank you in advance for your patience and understanding.

Sincerely,

Got it to work by changing the lines 11 and 64 to htc_jewel like that previous post says, the fix that aFoodStampBaby posted in the thread here. I see my $10 prepaid and I'm going to add more to make sure that works. I'll try and purchase something with it tomorrow morning. It doesn't even show the unsupported devices as a warning banner (yellow banner I got when using the GT-I9300 model name. My signature now says the htc_jewel which I can live with until Google fixes the problem with the jewel name.

EDIT: Added $20 with no problems
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Bulls729:
If you would like this problem fixed sooner, we can all show Google the amount of users wanting this problem fixed to up the priority in the que. The easiest way to do this is by filing a support request through the Google Wallet support number (855) 492-5538. I called them earlier today, they said I would be added to an notification list for when the issue is resolved and that my account had been noted. I also inquired about an compensation given the nature of some of us not being able to access our own money, the agent claimed that compesation has bee handed out in the past for issues such as this however nothing has been officially stated as of yet as far as our devices go, but my account would also be noted for that as wll.

Just change the build.prop lines back to GT-I9300 and unsupported device/carrier will dissappear. I posted this hoping it would fix this on someone's comment on G+ around a week ago.

can that be done without rooting the phone?

I don't plan on rooting this phone until i find a solid reason....and this isn't it.

This phone was sold to me with wallet working. If they intentionally disable it, they should announce it, provide a reason, and a grace period to get my money out. I spoke to money network and they mentioned 30 to 45 days to transfer money away....
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Socrguru:
No it can't. You need to be rooted to edit build.prop.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] EPayne123:
It doesn't matter to these companies what we think they SHOULD do. It's what they DO do that we try to do in this thread but no there is no way to do this without rooting unless you want to root and then unroot.
