I edited the build.prop n' all, and the phone went completely AWOL (brick/vibrating) when I tried rebooting. Had to do a restore. :crying:

---------- Post added at 08:23 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:13 PM ----------

Guess I should ask:

Do I change the build.prop then boot into recovery and apply the patch? Because I modified the build.prop and rebooted and it looped.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] darren.wlsn1:
edit build flash then dl in playstore.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Kelevro:
Thanks for the quick reply; I edited the build.prop. Double-checked completely. Checked another time before entering CWM, then flashed the patch. Rebooted. Black with vibrations.

Had to do another restore, haha. All is well, I'm just going to leave well enough alone.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] darren.wlsn1:
what rom you on? may be able to help ya
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Kelevro:
Crap, forgot to mention in my edit. I'm on Xquiz's v26. I read through most of the posts, and it looks like the people using the same ROM had no difficulties.

And don't worry about it, man! I'm just going to chill out with flashing today (I've flashed a dozen different things). After my soft-brick this morning, I'm a little off-put.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] darren.wlsn1:

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] ShermCraig:
Sorry to bump, but can someone answer this? I'm patched using 25, about to upgrade to 26 but want to know if I need to re-apply the patch. Thanks!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] darren.wlsn1:
i would just reset in gw app then update and redo process but i did do a restore from twrp and it stayed and works.

Same issue NFC is missing running todays CM10 Nightly, edited build prop, flashed, dl google wallet, get to add account, then it tells me nfc is missing so it takes me to wireless and network but the option is no where to be found? Is there a apk we can flash to get the option back? I did a search on my root folder for nfc but search came up empty, and I KNOW I HAD IT BEFORE THE WORKAROUND, I also never had CM9 to flash back then reflash cm10 and would really not want to have to reset up my phone.

Thanks Rob:cool:
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Ranger666:
Awesome job!! This worked great on my GS3.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] robandcathy:
Ok edit if you are using CM9 or 10 do not flash the fix, just edit build props, reboot and download GW from play store, I have mine all set up now and am going to test it out tonight at da store, and report back. Reflashing CM10 brought back the NFC option,"seems the flashable fix" removes the nfc option. Thank me if this helped you out.:laugh:
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] joemagistro:
this fix is only for Touchwiz roms on jellybean... on any AOSP rom, you dont need to flash any fix at all... just edit your build.prop

Dude liquid smooth is aosp.. This is for touchwiz onlyyy..... You broke nfc.... Reflash your rom and nfc will come back... The ONLY Thing you need to do to get wallet to work is changed your build.... Do not flash any fix files

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] ipguy:
Should this work with a stock rooted galaxy note 2 ? When I tried I lost NFC

To be clear, do you edit build.prop and reboot

Then apply patch after a reboot ?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] the_hustleman:
Thank you! I'm going to check this out soon!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] ipguy:
OK confirmed 2nd attempt to flash this resulted in failure

Doesn't seem doable on the galaxy note 2, keeps breaking NFC
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] SiNJiN76:
Got it downloaded no problem. I didn't even get the incompatible message. Weird thing is that it didn't want to download using my primary account. I was able to sign into Wallet using my primary, but from the Play Store... I had to use my secondary account (no problem of course). Just my experience.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] robandcathy:
Edit the build prop...save...reboot INTO RECOVERY .....flash the patch, then restart

Make sure the patch in on the phone before you reboot into recovery, otherwise do it again.

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] ipguy:
Where is the patch?, what patch?, is there a patch? or are you referring to the original zip on the OP ?

if you are i've already done exactly as the OP suggests

1) copy zip the SD

2) edit build.prop

3) reboot into CWM

4) flash zip

5) reboot

Then NFC is broken.

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] kambiz.aghaiepour:
Is the galaxy note 2 the same as the galaxy s3 ? I applied this patch on the TMO SGS3 (assuming that is the target device since the patch is listed in the SGS3 forums) and it worked just fine.

On a related note, once wallet is working, should one revert build.prop back to SGH-T999, d2tmo, d2tmo? I don't know if there is a downside to leaving build.prop to read:

ro.product.model=Galaxy Nexus

ro.product.name=yakju

ro.product.device=maguro

I've tried reverting things but it seems to cause problems with endless vibrate on boot.

I am using modaco apk. It woks pretty well with Touchwiz and ASOP,CM10.

Here is what I did:

Touchwiz:

1.Flash the zip file

2.Copy modaco wallet apk to systems/app folder and give permission. ( no need to change the buil.prop)

3. Reboot

ASOP, CM10:

(Flash the zip file only if you have never flashed it before on the phone and reflash the ROM. )

1.Copy modaco wallet apk to systems/app folder and give permission.

2. Reboot (It takes few trys to add credit card )

Canadian SIII problem

Doesn't work with my Canadian SIII, says item unavailable in your country. any way to make google wallet believe im in USA?:rolleyes:

I'm running FrostyJB v5. I have the SGH-T999V
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] ipguy:
I've got it to install straight from the market buy using :

1) tunnel bear

2) market enabler

3) editing build.prop ( add the galaxy nexus edits )

Visit Google Play, install

The easy part is done, the hard part is adding a card.

Good luck, report back with findings
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] robandcathy:
Just a note for some who may not know:

If you like switching roms as I do, you do not need to redo build prop.

Once you set wallet up and its running correctly<<<

Using titanium backup you can simply restore wallet on a new rom just wipe the apps data and cache then, reset it up.

Now on my third rom and my build prop says SGH-T999 and wallet still working.

Just mentioning this because I forgot my wallet at home when my rom crashed and didnt remember build prop settings, on the road I had to reflash the rom and thought I was s.o.l. viola it worked.

If this helps hit the thanks button.

isis in Salt LakeCity

Ok gang, I live in Salt Lake City, one of the big test cities for ISIS, the google wallet competitor. In getting ready for isis, I had to go to the tmobile store and get an isis ready new sim card. (it has it's own NFC chip. They put in the chip and I headed to the play store for the isis app. What do I get? Your device isn't compatible with this version... I renamed my build.pro back to t999 but nother. I just installed an old backup with with ics (4.0.4) and it installed just fine. So not sure where the hickup is, with jb, a rooted phone or my setting for googles wallet.

This being all and good, I hoping google wallet is accepted at the isis pay terminals. I think this system is flawed in that you have to have a special sim card which is only available on certain phones. Example my nexus 7 (which i've used wallet before) will never get it. W'ere trying to get NFC more mainstream and denying it to certain NFC capable devices isn't going to help their cause... Aw well back to wallet. Keep u posted.

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] iokke:
To save others some time searching the thread, here's how I got wallet to work on t-mo s3 with restored buildprop. It has been explained before just wanted to put it in more details for newbies like me (had to guess a few times on next step).

1. Make a backup of your buildprop (I used Rom Toolkit, very easy, go to buildprop editor, press menu, do a backup)

2: Followed those steps from the op:

... open your buildprop in text editor and edit these fields..

ro product model ..... to -- Galaxy Nexus

ro product name...........to-- yakju

ro product device .......to -- maguro

save it...

Reboot into recovery... Flash the JMJellyBeanWalletFix.zip

reboot...

(DO NOT Install wallet from market)

3. Install Modaco's Modded wallet by copying it to app folder:

Get Modaco's modded wallet from here:

http://loadbalancing.modaco.com/dow...droid.apps.walletnfcrel.modaco.1.5-R81-v4.apk

Using file explorer or Rom Toolkit Root browser paste the apk file into system/app . Fix/Set permissions (make sure for read owner/group/others is checked, for write and execute owner is checked).

Reboot

4. Launch Wallet from your appdrawer, login in to your account, add all your cards/etc. when you are finished setting up, restore your build.prop backup and reboot. Also go to playstore, find google wallet and turn off automatic updates.

Seems to be working for me though I havent made any purchases yet. Dont think I forgot any steps, & some may be unnecessary but it worked for me. Just wanted to explain in more detail how others said to use this fix + modaco's apk in order to restore original build.prop.

Thanks btw op rly wanted to try this app

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] joemagistro:
Here's what I can tell you guys... I don't know anything about the modaco wallet.. But this does work with the wallet from the market.....

Edit build prop, flash fix and download the newest wallet from the market..

As far as cm10 4.1.2?? Im on liquid and it also works... Just modify the build prop and download wallet from the market...

If it still hangs, try and wipe wallets data..

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] robandcathy:
Did this on 3-5 roms running 4.1.1 and worked like a charm, now on 4.1.2 seems broken, maybe a security patch between versions? I also read you must reset google wallet before flashing a new rom otherwise you may break your nfc chip.Im going to play around a bit more, need to find another 4.1.2 rom just to check.:confused: FYI reseting is different from wiping or unstalling. Reseting removes the data at the second level of security, while wiping and unstalling only removes itself from the first layer of security.

it does work....

by changing your build.prop back to stock, you are now letting it read that your device isnt a sprint device, causing wallet not to work..... the build.prop must be changed to a sprint nexus, or a sprint gs3, or anything else compatible....

so i did the dumbest thing ever. instead of changing the build.prop back and then going into wallet and clearing everything, i just went to recovery wiped data and did a nandroid restore. THAT WAS STUPID! as now, Im on PA 2.51 and there is no option for NFC anymore. So im guessing i just broke NFC....

You must let them know yourr are using credit not debit.

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] robandcathy:
Not true! I had wallet running just fine switching roms, after inital setup and restoring app +data for wallet it worked fine. Had the tmobile device info and still worked, I preaty sure build prop edits are simply for setting it up, once you done that you should be able to restore the data using titanium. Just make sure to reset wallet before flashing a new rom.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] joemagistro:
not on my end.. and others also reported.... the second you change the build.prop back, wallet wont open again..... i dont know why thats not the case for you, but on my end, the build.prop HAS to stay to the modified one...
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] XeoNoX:
i have confirmed wallet works and wallet will work fine and open fine if you change the build.prop as long as the you do the following in the following order:

1) make sure you have a fully functional and working copy of wallet installed using joemagistro's instuctions on page 1 of this thread

2) after making sure wallet works delete the wallet apk located in "data\app" folder

3) install MoDaCo's modified wallet apk in "system\app" folder and set proper file permissions (latest version is 1.5-R81-v4 as of the time of this post it can be found here at MoDaco's original thread ...just move his apk to system\app dont bother following modacos instructions of "resetting or clearing" anything just move and set permissions using root explorer/adb or similar app)

4) change the build.prop to the original tmobile settings or your desired phone carrier and then reboot your device.

TMO's original build.prop settings are:

ro.product.model=SGH-T999
ro.product.name=d2tmo
ro.product.device=d2tmo

Enjoy nag free and correct build.prop google wallet!!!

NOTE: wallet may stop working if you clear cache or dalvik in the future.

you have two options:

Option A)

1)From your android device go to SETTINGS > APPLICATION MANAGER > ALL > WALLET > choose (Clear data , clear cache & clear defaults) (DO NOT OPEN BACK UP WALLET and DO NOT reboot just leave the phone alone for right now)

2)then From a desktop computer or a laptop login to the google wallet website and remove your card and save

3)then reboot your android device and open wallet and then add the card... (this should work..it it doesnt then try "Option B" below)

Option B)

1)From your android device go to SETTINGS > APPLICATION MANAGER > ALL > WALLET > choose (Clear data , clear cache & clear defaults) (DO NOT OPEN BACK UP WALLET and DO NOT reboot, just leave the phone alone for right now)

2)then From a desktop computer or a laptop login to the google wallet website and remove your card. After successfully removing then add the card again from the desktop computer/laptop

3)then reboot your android device and open wallet
