Is using the "nfc libs" different than flashing the Google Wallet .zip file that the OP put in the beginning of this post? Is this an easier way to do it since you can then get the stock app from the Play Store?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] eatonjb:
ok.. here it goes.

looks ok, not even an error. going to reboot the phone and open GW and see what happens. I will try with a Bacon Egg Bisquit at McD's tomorrow morning and see whats up.

no errors at all.. ok.. tomorow. Mc D's it is.. i will report back!

Are there any plans to get us a flashable zip for 1.5-R79-v5? and to update the instructions on the 1st page? I would rather flash a version posted here then try to trick the market. I have a rooted S3 on Verizon.

does the new wallet from play break when you revert the build.prop to stock?

I'm guessing it does

Here's what I don't understand about your last comment - I have followed the instructions (using CM10 so no need to flash the lib) - the instructions say to flash the GW app which is currently R75 v6 - that is running on my phone well - are you saying that now I should change my build.prop file and then go to the Play Store and download the latest version and it should all work fine?

Thanks in advance - I just want to be 100% certain before I start messing with this.

Thanks,

New Update does NOT work

I just set up google wallet again (after a ROM flash) and got it all working with cards, then went to play store (with build.prop still set for htc_jewel) and installed the update. The updated google wallet said that it is not available for my device or network and wouldn't let me in. Uninstalled and now have to re-setup.

I'm using an AOKP JellyBean build on the AT&T variant of SGS3.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Mayze23:
Worked perfectly for me as well. Thanks for the tip
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] dschamis:
When you say you "Uninstalled and now have to re-setup" you mean going back to using the .zip file in the beginning of this thread, and therefore not using the latest update from the Play Store - right?

Has anyone done this and gotten the updated version from the Play Store to work?

---------- Post added at 02:39 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:38 PM ----------

So which version are you running? R75 v6 or R79 v5?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] joshw0000:
I've been checking the Play Store and I don't have an update. Actually, the app doesn't even show up as one I have installed. It does, however show up in app manager as a system app. Running R75 V6.

Maybe it's my Play Store being buggy. I'm seeing an update for Netflix but when I click on it my only options are open and uninstall.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] eatonjb:
did you relize that in the build.prop file that the text in there says "ro.build.product is obsolete; use ro.product.device

so you need to change that instead. works fine for me!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Mayze23:
R79 v5.

Change build prop to Gnex, Reboot, download update, open wallet to make sure it worked, change back to GS3 build prop, reboot, viola! :)

Edit: So far I'm 0-3 using the update with this method on paypass terminals. I didn't get any errors doing this but when I scan my phone nothing happens. Going to try another McDonalds to see for sure but I may have jumped the gun on this working without a hacked version.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] techgov8:
You can only flash the version that's modded in here to work. If you update it from the market when you have your build.prop changed it'll update and then not open and tell you this isn't for your device or something. So flash the version that's in here until the next one gets modded. Then you don't have any errors cause you can change your build.prop back to your original phones settings so you wont have errors in any apps

Tap'n
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] merpius:
I mean uninstall from Play store; I didn't need to reflash. I'm now using r75 v6; R79 v5 - from the Play store, gave me the message that it is unable to work with my device or carrier.

In my previous post I forgot to mention that my carrier is AT&T, I think. Given that some people have had some success, it may be the device, ROM, or carrier differences that are making it work for them and not me; you could be one of the lucky ones.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Nullnix:
There are way too many conflicting reports on here about whether one should install the Play Store update with a modded build.prop or not. Some people are saying that it works for them, others are saying that it is not. I tried it and post-update Google Wallet gives the message that the NFC is disabled (using official 9/05 CM10 build)... cleared settings (initialized the secure element) and then reverted back to a pre-GW 09/05 nightly backup; modified the build.prop, installed GW r75, installed update, reboot, restored stock build.prop and this time Google Wallet would not move past "Adding your Account" (waited a full 5 minutes).

Reverted it all back to the pre-GW-update state and all is well and good.

If the app from the Play Store was able to work on our devices, there would not have been a modded wallet app in the first place.

Those who are reporting that the update works, please try using it to make a payment, or try adding another card and report back.

Something definitely breaks when you install the update with the modified build.prop and then revert back to the stock build.prop.

For the sake of most of us here, do not utilize this update by tricking the app store, wait for a modded build to show up here... then run a build.prop modification routine (or script), flash the new modded GW and restore stock build.prop.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] merpius:
Yes, I realized this; I had ro.product.device ro.product.model and ro.product.name all set to htc_jewel (per OP). I did NOT set ro.build.product, but, as you say, that is obsolete, so it "shouldn't" matter.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] eatonjb:
i changed it in both, just in case, works fine for me!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] McAwesome:
To clarify some of the confusion here I will thoroughly explain my situation. I am using a AT&T Galaxy S3 on the stock root injected rom. I flashed the mod'd version of wallet along with the the libs and was running the R75 v6 no problem. I have play store set to auto update and when I woke up this morning it showed GW had updated. I have just left my mod'd build prop the way it was because I was to lazy to change it back. I can confirm that with mod'd build prop active at time of update and after update it does in fact work. Now you get the unsupported device banner at the top of the app when you open it but like CM10 users will be familiar with it still works even with this warning. I have yet to test reverting my build prop but will after post if it does not work I will edit. Hope this was helpful.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] JoeFishNC:
Verizon GS3

I tried the "Change build prop to Gnex, Reboot, download update, open wallet to make sure it worked, change back to GS3 build prop, reboot" on the Wallet Update.

When I rebooted with the Original Build.prop it says this device cannot use it.

I changed my Build.prop back to the nexus one I have saved and rebooted and now it works with the new update.

I am going to leave the build.prop as a Nexus, I hope it doesn't screw something up...
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] McAwesome:
I'm no dev just a user but I know I used a mod'd build prop all the time with this and have never had any issues. So in my opinion you should be fine. Some things will be a little wonky like taptalk will sign your sig Gnex not S3 but personally I could care less about that.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] eatonjb:
In some cases you will get MORE available apps too cause at&t stops some apps in the store.

where were you trying to pay? at the local streetside vendor?

also why did'nt you flash SGS3-TW-US_variants-lib&nfc-fix.zip as stated in the op?

there is also a link on the op saying "where google wallet works"
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] pozer69:
I really don't remember why I flashed that one instead of the one you mentioned. Maybe bc I thought it was version 2 or an update. Since there seems to be a lot of confusion maybe the op can get rid of the extra downloads.

I will reset my wallet and try that version of the fix.

Is there a difference in the three versions of google wallet?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] ogdobber:
the instructions are pretty clear. the three versions of wallet (and other zip files) are there for archive purposes.

I did tidy up step four and no longer give a "choice" of wallet version

lastly, if you are still having a problem, it might be your rom. people have stated on the new tmo ota of having troubles.

if so, try another rom

I tried updating to the new wallet through Google PLAY. I'm currenty using Kyan ROM.

1) I reset my app

2) restarted my phone

3) Updated Wallet

4) Restart my phone again

5) Registered my account

It seems to work well for me. Although with the update, I see a message stating UNSUPPORTED DEVICE. which pertains to rooted phone using unauthorized operating system.

I have't tried using it for payment though... but I see my google prepaid card and visa.

lol, yes, however 99% of the problems are from people not following directions or taking shortcuts.

So the next game is to try and figure out where they went wrong.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] McAwesome:
What exactly happens?? Does it recognize the paypass device and vibrate and make the sound then say ask cashier if the payment went through or does it not recognize the thing at all?? Also I have had issues with one register at a local McDonalds but the other ones work fine. So I would make sure you try this device at multiple places. No one ever uses the paypass thing around here so these poeple don't know when they are broken.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] pozer69:
I put my phone on the pad with the screen on and it didn't even register. No vibrate nor sound, some times it locked up my phone until I removed it from the pad. I tried three different stores. It is probably the NFC fix I downloaded. According to the op I downloaded the wrong one (same file name but with a -2 at the end I thought it was an update. I have the right one now, I just need to test it out.

I read the OP, and just want verification that someone has got this running and working on CM10, im on CM10 9-7 about to flash 9-8. I tried the steps 2 days ago with no luck, but just don't want to waste my time again. When I flashed the option for NFC dissapeared, and had to delete the modified wallet apk and re-flash CM10 to get my NFC back.

I had to restore my nandroid. At first, my Google Wallet worked, but then it updates off of Play and then tells me that my device is not supported. This is despite my build.prop being modified with HTC_Jewel. The wallet app I had was com.google.android.apps.walletnfcrel.magn2o.1.5-R75-v6-1.zip for Verizon.

Not sure if I should I retry using the most updated wallet here...

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Morkai Almandragon:
I am having similar problems, however mine does not even lock up, it is as if NFC is not on (it is). I did however notice this morning that my wallet app had updated to R79v5 before i tried it again, so that may be the issue.

I will try again with 75v6 (hacked) but to be honest I do not see why it would not work with the new version. If you follow the first post he lists exactly what is hacked out and as long as I kept the sprint entries in my build prop I would think any version of wallet should work.

I will post later after I get the chance to test it again, and by the way the files I flashed were

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

and

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

I am on the US Verizon Galaxy S3 running CleanROM 2.1
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] ogdobber:
read. if you have cm or any other non-touchwiz rom you only flash the wallet apk and not the libs fix. I don't know how the op could be more clear about this

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] ogdobber:
if it was easy as downloading from play, there would be no reason for this thread.

If your wallet was updated from play, uninstall the updates and uncheck auto-update
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Morkai Almandragon:
I believe I stated specifically that I was going to do so. I posted this so that I could educate myself on exactly how and why this works.

No offense but your reply did nothing to help that at all. I put down a very logical reason that I did not understand why the new un-hacked update would not work, and if you read exactly what was hacked out it is not hard to understand why I would wonder about it.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] ibby03:
I really respect and appreciate any time you took to post this fix for us, but I don't know if it's "you" that didn't read my post correctly, but I did flash the correct zip and followed the steps correctly to my knowledge, the intent of my post was to get verification from anyone on cm10 w/ a newer nightly, because I couldn't get it working due to NFC disappearing, I tried both build.prop edits. Please don't take offense to this as I said I appreciate any work a mod does to help and support our community, I just don't like being flamed on for correctly explaining my situation and asking for someone else's experience. I can and did read. Now can anyone answer my question? before I try this again?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] ogdobber:
-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

wallet is not available for the sgs3 (except sprint versions) although when you install this patched version it does link it to the market, even though it does not show for some.

So if it does show and you update it won't work, unless your build.prop is kept modified, still may not work for some and can cause other problems

I did not intend to flame, but if you flashed com.google.android.apps.walletnfcrel.modaco.1.5-r75-v6.zip then it is impossible for your nfc to break. so you must have flashed the WRONG zip.

I believe this is caused by a "feature" in jellybean.

It is a check that disable apps on boot. the intention was to prevent pirated apps from being able to be used, however google disabled this feature because it was causing problems with legitimate apps (like this one...sort of)

Carriers may have put this "feature" back in and that is why the app is disappearing

read about it here http://blog.gsmarena.com/google-disables-jelly-bean-app-encryption-after-issues-with-several-paid-apps/

the answer is to use a rom that disables this feature

It is possible that something could be flashed to disable it on "any" rom, I will look into it
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Metups:
OK.

Has Play been trying to update Google Wallet for anybody else?

Update: Well, I had to turn off automatic updates for Google Wallet from the Play Store. I didn't set it myself, so that was a surprise. In fact, I had to turn off my phone while I went about turning off automatic updates. This stopped the automatic download, and I ended up with a partial download of the Google Wallet showing in my notifications. I got rid of the partial download notification by pressing on the partial download notification, which took me to the Play store and then manually canceling the download. Yikes.
