I think I'm obsessed... Earlier today I got it working.. McDonalds for breakfast and lunch.. Went to cvs to buy water.. Yup.. Just water.. Just because I wanted to use Google wallet again... And now tying to find a fast food place other then Google wallet for diner...

Mind u ill gain 1.5lbs today alone cause I'm on a strict diet.. But.. Can't.. Stop... Using.. Google... Wallet...

The best part is when people at the register are all surprised and asking questions lol.. So far one McDonalds lady said she has never seen anybody use "the funny thing on the credit card machine before" and a hot lady at cvs wouldn't stop asking me about my phone after I did it...

Yup.. Other stuff with work but you will have to jump through hoops to make sure permissions are correct and it didn't ruin formating of the file etc.. Spend the money get root explorer...

The following is a quote from the original OP

"-the build.prop edit is for enabling cards, once they are enabled it can be reverted

-the wallet apk has 3 features patched out. The first was a device check, the second patch was an operator check and the third patch was removing the root warning"

So anytime you want to add a card you need to go through this modified build. prop file procedure. This is what worked for me:

Steps 11 to 14 of OP

This app hangs on removing last card on step number 13, ignore and go to rootexplorer, modify build.prop, then save and

REBOOT

Open Wallet, be sure to add all of your cards before reverting back to the original build.prop files.

Did you just try rebooting after modifying the build.prop file?

Is there a hacked version of current release

Please forgive me if this has been answered. I will admit I didn't read all 134 pages of the forum. I did read the first 2-3 and the last about 10 and did a couple searches. But I am a bit confused. I am also including lots more history than my question needs because since I have it working in a pretty vanilla configuration I hope that might be helpful to others.

I installed based on the OP instructions for Stock Rom / TMOB. i.e. wallet-sgs3-att_tmo-fix.zip The $10 card works perfectly. Also adding funds to that works fine. I can't get it to take my Citi MC but it sounds like maybe I need to clear dalvik cache which I haven't tried. If that's a horrible idea please correct me.

But I do have 2 problems

1. I'd like to add a different card - Citi isn't my favorite institution. But this isn't the end of the world.

2. The BIG problem is that now Wallet has placed itself in the Play store update list such that I cannot use the UPDATE button. I have to update each app manually, which is a big pain.

Obviously I have 1.1-R67-v12. The market version is 1.5-R75-v6. But I don't want to leave the build.props saying htc-jewel. The Play store is snotty enough already about what it will and will not serve.

There are these other files on the OP that mention the new 1.5

com.google.android.apps.walletnfcrel.magn2o.1.5-R75-v6-1.zip

com.google.android.apps.walletnfcrel.modaco.1.5-r75-v6.zip

But I don't know what those are and I'm a bit spooked about bricking the security elements (or however you say that) to go randomly installing things. So the net of this rambling post that could have been the entire post all by itself -

Is there a hacked 1.5R75-v6 for a TouchWiz TMOB ROM?

EDIT:

OK, once I quit looking in /data/app I see the modaco stuff is in /system/app. Somewhere I know I read it goes in /system so now I feel stupid. I suspect the update is to:

1. put the build.props back to htc_jewel

2. reset google wallet (this sounds like it is just always a good idea)?????

3. Recovery Flash com.google.android.apps.walletnfcrel.modaco.1.5-r75-v6.zip

4. Add additional cards

5. put build.props back to correct values

RIGHT?

Thanks!

Just for the record, in case anyone is wondering, I forgot to reset the Wallet app when I installed the latest OTA update for the T-Mobile GS3 that came out last week. The OTA update removed Wallet, but all I had to do was go through the installation instructions in the OP again and it works fine now.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] wiz4769:
Well I had the old original wallet on there and have been thinking about upgrading and if it would be worth it, so today I went ahead and did it. I just changed the build.prop, reset wallet and booted to cwm flashed the new wallet zip, opened it up to make sure card was still there and then changed build.prop back and went to Jack in the Box for lunch, worked like a champ.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jaliscojorge:
Yep, I just installed it today and it's doing the same for me but nothing seems to be harmed by it. I'll have to search the thread to see if maybe there is a solution for that already or at least a reason for it.

A quick search i did indicates that wiping cache and dalvick cache up to maybe 3 times could get rid of that problem. Will have to try it when I get the time to sit through all that.

typed from my white sgs3 hungry for some Zen
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] ElCamino:
I might have to wipe cache and dalvick cache, because I am getting an error adding my CC. I might of made a mistake because I added my CC but didn't realized that the card had not been added to my Wallet and now I have restored my original build settings. I will try and clear first and if that doesn't work, I will try and put the build edit and reboot and see if that works.

UPDATE: I went ahead and changed the build prop back to the Galaxy Nexus settings from OP and booted to recovery and rebooted. Opened up Wallet and clicked on my card and within 5 minutes it confirmed my card and wanted to reboot. I rebooted and renamed my build prop back to the original. Now everything is working.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] ElCamino:
Do you still get $10 added to your Google Wallet for signing up?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jaliscojorge:
Nope, no $10 added :(.

typed from my white sgs3 hungry for some Zen
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] ElCamino:
:(

So every time yo need to add a card, you need to change your Build Prop correct?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] natemiller82:
Yeah, otherwise it will be stuck in "adding card" from my experience
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] ElCamino:
I just tried for the heck of it, and you still get the $10. Just click on to add the Google Prepaid Card and you will get $10. You will have to change your build prop. I used the Galaxy Nexus build prop settings and rebooted. Within about 2 minutes I got my $10. Now changing back to my original build prop.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jaliscojorge:
Thanks for the heads up, I'll have to do that. I just renamed the altered build.prop to build.prop.wallet.bak to avoid redoing all the changes manually :D.

On another note i thought i would get to test this app out at Walgreen's today but after several attempts at placing the phone on the sensor nothing happened until the clerk told me that sensor has never been working so i guess I'll have to wait for another chance to try it out and hope that it was the sensor and not something wrong on the phone. And yes nfc was turned on.

$10 on Google prepaid card..... check:)

Android is upgrading is still coming up after reboot and several cache wipes. Oh well don't bother me much.

BTW, I left nfc enabled since yesterday after installing wallet and noticed in increase in battery drain. Is this true for everyone else if nfc is left enabled or might i have another culprit?

k nm sorry i got it and the updated one also thank you very much for this great info now to test it lol
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] ElCamino:
I have always left my NFC on, even before activating the Google Wallet. I use the NFC tags so always keep it on and really don't see any major battery drain. On average, I loose about 3% battery life every hour. Sometimes 2%.

When I use the phone heavy and that's with 1hour and 30 minutes of talk time with several text and lots of email, in a 8 hour day I have about 70% battery life left.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] eatonjb:
might be a little off subject, but anyone have the Verizon inductive cover on a NON Verizon phone, does the NFC still work?

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] waiters:
So when I use wallet I usually put my phone on the nfc reader and wait for wallet to open on its own. The I type in my password and put it back on..

If I open wallet and type in my password before putting it on the nfc reader will it go faster or does it ask/confirm price or something else?

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] ogdobber:
see step 3. if you update through play you will more than likely get the unsupported devices error

Google Wallet to the rescue!

Props to OP, and of course to Google!

Here's my story. I left at about 5pm on Sunday from Chicago, driving down to St. Louis. Got about half way there and needed to get some gas and something to eat. Pulled to the exit, got out of the car, and realized, ****! I don't have my wallet. Searched around the car for some cash, found a shiny quarter. Was considering my options, but none of them would work. I mean, I'd need ID to get a Western Union or help from AAA.

Then I thought, what about Google Wallet? I have a rooted Verizon GS3 with Bean's Custom Stock ROM on it. I had used Google Wallet in the past on my Nexus S, and had looked at this thread briefly while rooting my GS3, but thought "maybe later." To make a long story short, I got on the web, found this thread, edited my build.prop, installed the NFS fix (SGS3-TW-US_variants-lib&nfc-fix.zip) and the Verizon/Telus Google wallet (wallet-sgs3-verizon_telus.zip), loaded up a prepaid card using the Amex card number I have memorized, and got a tank of gas (and a burger!). The look on the gas store attendants face when I told her what I had done was priceless. Ended up driving back to Chicago, finding my wallet on my couch, and then driving all night to St. Louis, arriving at 5AM and getting to work at 7.

Thank you OP and Google!!! Now, if we could only figure out how to make your phone your driver's license and ID...

Oh yeah, **** YOU VERIZON!

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] sabresfan08:
I used it today with the $10 MC gift card. Worked perfectly at Burger King!

Just so I don't mess anything up, I download the zip file, change the build.prop back to the Nexus, reboot recovery, install zip, wipe cache, then it should be updated? And then if it's working change build back afterwards correct? When I'm updating, I need to reset Google Wallet first as well?

Sorry I'm so uninformed, I just switched from an iPhone 3 days ago (loving Android already BTW!) and this is a lot different than messing around with jailbreak tweaks!

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] acloaf:
I'm looking for the same solution. My main concern is that I am unable to reset wallet now that I have no icon to launch it. I did the web reset but the app still needs to be able to launch on my phone in order for the reset to complete. I'd prefer not to risk permanent damage but it looks like I may have to take that chance.

T-Mobile, Stock rooted IMM76D.T99UVALH2 build (latest stock update from T-Mobile)

Followed instructions in the OP, soft bricked my phone. Luckily I always make a backup prior to doing anything..

First, I edited build.prop to:

ro.product.model=Galaxy Nexus

ro.product.name=yakju

ro.product.device=maguro

Then in CWM Recovery I flashed:

SGS3-TW-US_variants-lib&nfc-fix.zip

After selecting reboot in CWM, black screen. Nothing. Power button wouldn't work. Pulled battery, tried to power on. Stuck at very first Samsung Galaxy SIII splash screen. Wouldn't even get to the "blue swirl" Samsung logo part.

Pulled battery again. Booted into CWM recovery, attempted to restore backup. Restore successful, tried to reboot. Wouldn't get past the very last flashing Samsung logo.

Pulled battery again. Booted into CWM recovery, wiped phone, cache. Wiped Dalvik. Restored backup, rebooted, BAM! back to normal.

Not sure why it didn't work. Couldn't get past the SGS3-TW-US_variants-lib&nfc-fix.zip part. Not sure I want to try again.

Anyone know what might have caused this? I'm very careful about following instructions, in fact in all the years I've been flashing/rooting/modding I've never even soft bricked a phone before.

Is it because of the updated stock ROM? I searched the thread prior to doing any of this but could not find anything specific using the "search thread" function

thanks

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] ingenious247:
F*** that!

I would never use Wallet if that's the case.

But yes it looks like they require it depending on your account and what you're doing with it

http://wallet.google.com/files/privacy.html
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] YPhoto:
I had similar issues, but for the life of me I can't remember what I did to boot up. I know in TWRP I was able to rename the build.prop back to the original to reboot properly.

I am not sure you actually want to put the latest OTA on. Myself as well as others can get Google Wallet working, activated, etc, but when we go to a store nothing happens when you pay. I have restored back to the original ROM, I haven't tried paying anywhere yet. In a separate thread another user has stated that he restored back to the prior ROM and it works again. He had the same issue as I. Seems something has changed in the release that stops Wallet from recognizing the NFC tap.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] ogdobber:
you did not follow the directions thoroughly, the reason you boot looped (soft brick) is because your build prop permissions were not correct. I am guessing you either edited it wrong or used a file explorer other than root explorer (<my top guess)

Now with this being said, it is possible the SmartMx is enabled in this update (isis rollout is right around the corner) so if you want to test, you can just flash the com.google.android.apps.walletnfcrel.modaco.1.5-r75-v6.zip and see if it works

Note- you may still need to do the build.prop edit (and if you do not use root explorer you are going to end up in the same situation you were in before)
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] ogdobber:
if you have the latest OTA and google wallet doesn't work, it means the SmartMx has not yet been enabled and you need the SGS3-TW-US_variants-lib_nfc-fix.zip
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] ingenious247:
You may be right about the permissions, I did not check that. However, I did state that I followed instructions which means yes, I did use Root Explorer (I always do/have).
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] YPhoto:
I did flash that as well as the modified wallet after I realized the OTA removed Wallet. I installed the OTA at 4am and didn't think about Wallet. After I realized my mistake, I restored to where I Nandroided after originally getting Wallet to work so I could reset it. Then I cam back to the OTA. I installed both zips with a modified build.prop. It took awhile but I was able to activate and get my prepaid balance back, Multiple attempt in different stores I was not able to use it.

After I deplete my balance (I have added funds to my prepaid I want to use), I will reinstall the OTA and flash the zips again just to make sure I didn't miss something.

If you do get the OTA working yourself and are able to pay I would like to know, either PM me or reply here. Thanks.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] thekendog:
So good news...that also makes me look like an idiot. The OP wasn't kidding about Root Explorer. I downloaded it and it worked fine. Anttek for whatever reason didn't work even though I mounted RW. Thanks for help and sorry for the confusion everyone!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] moonfire711:
I'm thinking that a lot of the mistakes are being made by not restoring the file with the correct file name and/or not setting the permissions correctly. If you

use root explorer

to modify the build.prop file like the OP says, then the

build.prop.bak

that is generated keeps the correct permissions. All you have to do

after setting up google wallet

is

delete the modified build.prop

and then

remove the .bak off the original

using root explorer.

If you did it

any other way

, then you need to

make sure permissions are set correctly

and that you have the

original named back to build.prop

. If you don't, you will get the boot loop.

Did this and everything was working fine. After adding the card, i restored my original build.prop and im getting stuck. Phone boots but then goes blank. I can get in to recovery, so i figure ok, maybe a problem with that backup, ill use the one built in to the rom that im using. Use adb to push it and no dice, still getting the same problem. I dont want to reinstall the rom or restore because i followed the instructions step by step and dont have a backup from after i activated wallet and before i changed the build.prop.

Any ideas?
