That is the current method to obtain root access. I would follow along with the video and double check to see if you have the latest .zip file for CWM v5. QB does a great walk-through for rooting your device. From what you have provided, you're on the right track thus far. When you state "system recovery" are you on the factory recovery or clock work recovery? Can you clarify that so I could help you out.

If you flashed Odin using the latest .tar file and it went successful you should be on CW recovery, not factory. It should be stated at the top of your screen when you're in recovery CMW-based Recovery v5*

If this is valid all you need to do now is flash Team Epic's recovery file to root the device. The tail end of QBKing(s) video shows how to do that. Once rooted you will see Superuser in your app drawer to let you know you have root.

If you haven't gone that far and are missing something, start over from the beginning using the latest videos to help guide you along.

Stick with this(you already have this from above) to d/l the appropriate files:

It is factory. Odin passes and executes but recovery isn't Clockwork. I shouldn't have done anything that is irreversible; I will retry with the new rooting method. Thanks!;)

Keep us posted.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] rwright64:
I had the same problem. I re-installed the samsung drivers on my computer and then it worked.
[Nexus 7 General] matrix0886:
Ok guys, as i'm browsing, I keep seeing the same questions over and over gain in different threads talking about Google Wallet. I want to put everything out here in one thread. Keep in mind i'm in the US, I know our foreign friends will be different as Google is still working on getting it working outside the US. So this guide is for you US peeps.

1.) Yes, GW works fine on rooted devices. A banner will show that your device is unsupported, and a warning may appear during checkout...ignore this.

The app still works just fine.

The reason it says "Unsupported Device" is because when you are rooted, there is a security risk for GW (just like there's one for you device as a whole).

2.) GW will not appear on the Play Store from your device. However, if you go to the

Play Store

on your computer, it will be there.

3.) You have heard there was an update that allowed you add all major credit cards, but you can't see how to update it. You have two options:

~a.) My most recommended option. Go to the

Play website

using your computer. Click on 'My Android Apps'. Choose the Asus Nexus 7. Scroll through the installed apps until you find "Wallet." Click it. Click on 'INSTALLED' and it will offer to send the update to you. Send it to your N7, you may need to be on wi-fi, I'm not sure about that. Now you'll have the other options for credit cards.

~b.)

IF IF IF IF IF

and

ONLY IF

the first option does not work, you can use the

hacked apk found here

. Just follow the instructions. Now if you are outside of the US, there are instructions in that thread for getting GW to work outside of the US. If you have issues, post them there so the developer can work on it. It is his apk, so he needs to know of issues, not me.

4.) You have added your credit/debit card. When you use GW, it will actually use your virtual master card that goes through Google, which will then debit from your actual card. What does this mean? It means that if you get any kind of rewards for using your card at certain places, you may not get those rewards or only part of them, as your billing statement will show that it was a Google purchase.

5.) No. You do NOT have to have a data or internet connection to use GW.

So there you have it. And just point out the most frequently asked questions: no data/internet required, works on rooted devices regardless of the warnings you see, only shows up in the Play Store on your computer browser. There, those have been repeated twice, so you should not be asking anymore :P
[Nexus 7 General] sRDennyCrane:
That's awesome. I'd added a card online, deleted an old one, but the damned app on my N7 just showed a Citi card, and no option to update. I felt retarded... I'm glad this is finally set up. Thanks.
[Nexus 7 General] ba_hamilton:
My N7 is rooted. I've installed the latest wallet and I've entered one of my credit cards. When I did that I got an email from google stating that my wallet was set up and ready to go. To test it I should open wallet and tap my card to authorize its use. It doesn't matter how much I tap, touch, or rub the card on the N7 it doesn't appear that it is reading my card.

Is it working properly? I'd kinda like to test it out before I actually take it in someplace and try to use it.
[Nexus 7 General] reuthermonkey:
Is your card a paypass card? Never seen it ask to tap the card to the phone. Not sure why it would, frankly.
[Nexus 7 General] matrix0886:
I was about to say the same thing. You can't tap just any ole card. Doesn't work that way. The card needs to have an RFID chip in it, or some sort of NFC chip. Someone correct me if i'm wrong.
[Nexus 7 General] Krunk_Kracker:
Installed yesterday from the link that was posted and this is what I get.

Thoughts?
[Nexus 7 General] Heaterz16:
I am not rooted and I tried it at a Walgreens, but it didn't do anything. Can someone explain in elementary steps how it actually works when using it at a store? I just figured I had to have a data connection and that is why it didn't work, but this guide says otherwise.

Thanks for your help!
[Nexus 7 General] adamhlj:
First, download the PayPass locator to find which stores near you actually have a console that is compatible with the device. Some Walgreens DO NOT have the mastercard paypass system. They have some other kind of technology. I tried at a walgreens by my place and felt foolish when the girl just looked at me weird.

You can use this at ALL McDonald's. Go there and order something. Turn your device on. Make sure NFC is enabled in the settings. You don't need to have wallet open already, but it would speed up the process. If you don't have it open, but with the phone screen turned on, rest the back of the device to the paypass surface. They need to be physically touching. You may need to move the device around just a bit. You will hear a ringing noise, and then google wallet will be active. It will ask you to type in your PIN and the press the device to the surface to complete the transaction. Sometimes you have to tell the person at the cash register that you are paying with credit. Once you tap it a second time to the surface of the paypass thing, it will say transaction complete.

NOW, sometimes it doesn't work 100% flawlessly. SOMETIMES you have to tap the device to the pad over and over again. Or move it around on top of the pad until it goes through. And sometimes, even tho it goes through on the end of the cash register, the device still tells you that the transaction may not have gone through. If the person smiles at you and gives you your receipt, it went through just fine. But the device will ask you to tap the paypass pad again. Just take the receipt and wink at the person if they are cute because they have never seen it before and they are probably blown away by it.

Oh, and even though people say that you don't need a data connection to use it, I have always been connected via wifi to my phone or the wifi at the restaurant when I use it.
[Nexus 7 General] Heaterz16:
One more question, I am getting annoyed by the "you need flash blah blah blah", so I am going to root.

In the past I thought I saw articles saying something about resetting google wallet before you root or it messes it up, but when I go into Wallet to reset it - I don't see that option.

Is this something that is still required? If so, what are the steps?
[Nexus 7 General] Groid:
I was under the impression that you don't need a wi-fi connection to complete a transaction at a PayPass terminal. Has anyone used it successfully knowing there was no wi-fi connection?
[Nexus 7 General] adamhlj:
From Google wallet, go into the menu from the google wallet home screen. The three dots up in the right hand corner. Then settings. Then reset google wallet.
[Nexus 7 General] lilphil240:
You do

not

need a wifi / data connection ! How many times does this need to be stated?!
[Nexus 7 General] matrix0886:
.....................really dude? Did you read the whole thing? I even said it twice. Let me quote myself:

See? I put it in there twice. I'm not trying to be a jerk, I just have little patience for people who don't read and ask questions that were already answered. Hope the bluntness gets the point across so this doesn't happen in the future, that's all.
[Nexus 7 General] Heaterz16:
I can't believe I didn't see that until now, I tried that about 4 times using the menu button but it never had the settings option....before I realized I was within a card which didn't have that option. I had to hit the back button twice to get to the "homepage" of the app, then I saw the settings, reset option...

Thanks!
[Nexus 7 General] demandarin:
Thanks OP. Your method of updating the app worked flawlessly for me. Now I added another card. Can't wait to try this out.

Quick question: lets say I get a galaxy S3, it has Google wallet on it or I install it(I believe that device has nfc also, all I would have to do is sign in and data transfer KR copies to new device? Or will I have to set THST device up all over again ?
[Nexus 7 General] computerking:
Here's an odd question:

Let's say you're at the end of your funds on your debit card, and you don't want to charge the whole amount on your (different)credit card. Is there a way to use Google Wallet to pay out the last of the debit card's funds, THEN cover the balance of the purchase with the credit card?
[Nexus 7 General] Krunk_Kracker:
I'm running Team EOS Rom build 19.

Nothing else would work for me, so I did this method.

I have tried installing it by just tapping the apk and I have also put the apk in /system/apps and set permissions. No matter how I do it, I always get this.

Any thoughts?
[Nexus 7 General] superchi:
I can verify that this works when rooted on the stock ROM AND WITHOUT INTERNET CONNECTION. When I have used it on my Nexus 7, I have had the app open as it will ask you to put in your PIN number on the device.

Few things to make sure you have done before scanning. Make sure you have a card selected before hand WHICH DOES REQUIRE INTERNET CONNECTION. I have tried to scan my Nexus 7 and Galaxy S III without a card selected (although I'm not sure why the card was deselected) and neither would work.

When you scan the device at the NFC point of sale, make sure you center the "U" in "Nexus" on the back of your device over the scanning area (this is according to the instruction manual on the device). You can test this for yourself if you have another NFC capable device, using Android Beam. You will find that the scanning range of the NFC is very specific on both devices.

Sometimes, it will take a little bit of time for the device to be scanned and for the transaction to be completed. You will hear a sound from your device indicating that the NFC has been scanned, after which the Google Wallet app will pop up prompting you to put in your PIN or that the transaction has been completed, showing you a receipt.
[Nexus 7 General] Groid:
I read the OP entirely and thought, hooray! In post 7 someone said his didn't work and questioned the data connection. Post 8 said he was successful and stated he had a wi-fi connection with his phone at the time. No one before my post had verified wi-fi or data was not needed except the OP. Trust, but verify. I just wanted one other person to say it worked.
[Nexus 7 General] ale896:
Just curious if there was a way to reload the virtual card without having another credit/debit card added as an available card in GW? Is there a phone number or website where we could add funds, so the virtual card is the only card listed in GW?

How does the Seidio cases stack up with the Otter? I bought the Otter this past weekend at BB for $49.99. Kinda steep. Just want a fair compairson of the two incase I want to return and get the other and save a few $$.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] rodger-sp:
The Samsung dock that I use is the multimedia desktop dock it has audio out. I use it every night to charge my phone. I like the Seidio case for how slim it is it gives some good protection without adding a lot of bulk. That s3 retains its slim feeling with the Seidio case IMOP. For me the Sedio case and the dock are a great combo.

---------- Post added at 03:17 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:15 PM ----------

The Seidio if you are comparing it to the defender it does nit give as much protection but it is way thinner. If you are compering it to the commuter it with give about the same level of protection but with a slimmer profile.

Because it wouldn't look as good as it looks now. If it would have full bottom and top protection I wouldn't even consider buying it tbh. So its just personal opinion.
