Re: Google wallet fix for SGS3 US variants AT&T, T-MOBILE, US Cellular, VERIZON, etc

upgraded fine. didn't reset or change build.prop. I've never had a problem upgrading. went from v 87 to v96

new app is much smaller and has seemed to get rid of the issue about it not knowing if transaction went through intermittently.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] robertlewisca:
I just have a quick question on the process of upgrading to the newest Wallet version contained in this thread if I already have R87 working. So, if I already have R87 working, and want to install the newest version on this thread, do I:

1. Edit my build.prop

2. Go into existing wallet (R87) and reset it.

3. Uninstall existing wallet (R87),

4. Boot into Recovery and Flash the library fixes.

5. Flash new wallet version (R96).

6. Restart, then go into Wallet and setup my cards again.

7. Revert to original build.prop.

Is that the process? I wasn't clear in the Op on whether to uninstall old version of Wallet, or whether flashing the new version would overwrite the old version. I also wasn't clear if I needed to re-flash the library fixes before installing the new version, if I've already flashed the library fixes with R87.

Thanks for your help.

I don't think there is any need to get a replacement phone. First try restoring your last or any other Nandroids you have on your SdCard. If you don't have any, shame on you!!

EDIT: The second step is to type "Secure Element" in the search field of this thread and read through the results till you find the answer. It's been encountered before.

Well I did a restore to a rom I was in a while back which had gw on it so went through the steps and setup process and found that wad able to get gw working and secure element v1.6 gw app version 1.5 R81-v4 so I went ahead and reset the wallet app it hung up at 98% so I restarted and opened gw app it had been reset so I did a nandroid restore to my latest rom wickedv6 ans installed the latests gw fresh....I am attempting to add my card at the moment seems to be taking to long anyone else having issues with the latest gw and adding cards? As I was able to log in the other rom and achieve secure element I don't think I am having a secure element issue

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] 78Staff:
Wait... I've never had to turn off updates. Wallet doesn't even show up in my play store installed apps. I mean, that is one of the main advantages to using the patched version, right?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] RobbieL811:
Re: Google wallet fix for SGS3 US variants AT&T, T-MOBILE, US Cellular, VERIZON, etc

Its not really an advantage. The updates have to be patched out of the apk. If it updated, Google Wallet wouldn't work on our phones. Plus it would be constantly nagging you to update the apk.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] 78Staff:
Exactly. That's my point. I've never needed to turn the update off b/c it's patched out of the apk in the OP. The app doesn't show up in Play Store, thus never gets updates/nags for updates, etc.

If the app is showing up in play store and triggering for updates, then something went wonky during the install process. And in that case, I would recommend uninstalling completely with TiBu, then deleting it from play store, and starting the process over from scratch.

This is not accurate. If you properly install Wallet, it will show up in the Play store and allow you to check, or un-check automatic updates. When updating to the latest in this thread mine defaulted to auto-update. I had to un-check auto-update in Play, then delete the app data to revert to the downloaded version. After that, everything works as intended.

Question regarding nandroid backup

Are we albe to make a Nandroid Backup with GW working or should we always Wipe the Data before making a Nandroid back up?? I know when ever flashing a New Rom we should wipe the data, but what about making a backup?? Thank you!!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] cjranucci:
Honestly, I never tried restoring Wallet from a nandroid. Every time I flash, I just change my build.prop, flash wallet, revert build.prop. Literally takes less than 5 minutes.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] 78Staff:
Hmm... not sure what to tell you. It's very accurate, I assure you, at least the way I install it.. :) I follow the instructions in the OP of this thread, and have installed it several times (maybe a dozen) on Task's AOKP, after each new release until I found a way to avoid that., Also note that when I updated I did not do an in place upgrade, but rather removed r87 before installing r96. So possibly the way you upgraded makes a difference?

The only time the app has ever showed up my play store was once when I didn't change the build prop back to stock and reboot right away after configuring wallet. During that bit of time, Play store saw the app on the phone and backed it up per my google play settings. So it showed up both in my installed apps and of course in the play store. I promptly removed it with Tibu and deleted it from play store and then re-installed/rebooted in a timely manner and no more in play store.

IMO the best way to avoid play store detecting anything is the just freeze it before installing and unfreeze after you reboot back to stock build prod. Never had an issue doing it this way.

Re: Google wallet fix for SGS3 US variants AT&T, T-MOBILE, US Cellular, VERIZON, etc

Noah. Your wrong. I definitely properly installed wallet. It works & I use it all the time but it definitely doesn't show up in my play store. Like a user above me said it might show up after you get done setting it up while one the Galaxy Nexus build.prop but that's it. If you are on the SGH-I747 build.prop & Google Wallet is showing up in your play store, you did something wrong somewhere.

Whew, this turned out to be a false alarm! GW is still working but I think I have to be careful about how I position the phone on the sensor now that I have that Qi coil in the back cover. Tested two times today and went through!:cyclops:

---------- Post added at 09:33 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:25 PM ----------

What happens is that in the process of installing GW, when one reboots right after flashing the GW .apk but before setting up any cards, the Playstore will auto-update the GW .apk because the build.prop is modded to read a Nexus phone. That is why it is necessary to have auto-update of either all apps or just GW turned to "off". It's been hard to get users to understand this. Once that puppy auto-updates, you can set it up but it will not work except maybe on some AOSP ROMs. On that last point I'm not even sure.

---------- Post added at 09:37 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:33 PM ----------

Lol, you can search for places from within the app itself where Paypass is used, but look out! Lots of beauty supply stores, massage venues, prescription glass sellers, etc. There's lots of places, but are they places you would go to...:laugh:?

---------- Post added at 09:40 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:37 PM ----------

The OP, Ogodobber, recommends this. It's in the first post somewhere. So, yes, it is possible.

---------- Post added at 09:46 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:40 PM ----------

No, you are both right! Auto-update is the problem. Just freeze PlayStore during the whole installation or turn off auto-updates. I have properly installed wallet multiple times but don't run into any problems because I don't use auto-update for anything! Really, I always read what changes are coming in important updates especially permissions! Why turn on auto-update! That's just crazy! You've got to keep an eye on what you're installing no matter what it is.:eek::eek::eek:

Well I wasnt able to successfully setup wallet on my current rom wicked v6 idk if I have an issue with my phone personally but does anyone have a confirmed working wallet on wicked v6?

When I have time to I will restore to the rom I can get gw working and do a complete new install of the wicked v6 from that point where I have a working google wallet which is on freegs3 rom
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] RaymondPJR:
I felt that way too at first, but then I just put the pertinent files in a folder on my extSDcard (I always stay with Samsung based ROMs), including a saved copy of the modded build.prop. That means all I have to do is remember to reset GW before I flash a new ROM. When new ROM is flashed it's a cinch to reinstall GW!:good:

---------- Post added at 05:23 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:17 PM ----------

I ran Wicked V6 forever with GW installed. You must have done something wrong. I was running the file that eded in 87 plus the latest "fix" file and the Nexus build.prop edit. Make sure you don't have your Playstore set to auto-update. If you do change that setting beforehand or freeze Playstore. You can reverse this after you change your build.prop back after successfully adding your card/s.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] 1Shotwonder:
Re: Google wallet fix for SGS3 US variants AT&T, T-MOBILE, US Cellular, VERIZON, etc

I was running the 4.1.-1 fix file is there a newer file than that? I didnt have the gw on auto update I checked it after seeing some issues with that from others. I have had wallet installed before as I said on freegs3 and if I restore back to that rom I'm on v87 and all I have to do is change build.prop and log in, cards setup quick and then change back buil.prop and works perfectly. As soon as I restore to my current rom change build.prop and flash that 4.1.-1 fix file and new gw app I can get logged in but the adding cards takes forever then eventually fails says error adding cards reboot phone or try again later so thays why I'm wondering if maybe my secure element is fine back in the gs3 rom but now in the v6 somewhere between the two roms something went wrong so maybe I need to go back and start from that backup
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] RaymondPJR:
I don't know what else to tell you. All I did was reset GW before I left Wicked V5 (open the app, go into settings and reset). Flashed V6 and set up phone. Later on I modded the build.prop then went into recovery and flashed 4.1.-1 fix file and 87 GW file. Booted up and opened wallet. Card was already there like it's supposed to be since reseting doesn't delete your card. It prompted me saying "Setup Required". Tapped and card was successfully setup, then deleted modded build.prop and restored build.prop.bak. Rebooted and went to test.

EDIT: Actually I'm using the 97 GW file this time. I used 87 on Wicked V5. I always follow the same steps and have no problems setting up. I've never had the secure element problem either. I'd just search this thread up top using only "secure element" and read some of those posts to find out where to look for the Secure Element version.

EDiT: I racked my brain trying to remember where to find it and it's in the GW app itself. Tap icon>put in password>hit menu button>tap "About". Mine says v1.6
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] 78Staff:

Not exactly. When you mod build.prop the original renamed to .bak is created automatically. I just copy/saved the modded version to sdcard before deleting it and restoring the original. That way next time just name the original .bak manually and copy/paste the modded saved version from sdcard. Saves a little time.
