I just finished installing Walet. Everything seemed to go fine. However, when I select the app it says " Setting up Google Wallet" then after a few seconds it says " Wallet is unable to proceed until this device is fully initialized. Make sure the device has network access and try rebooting if the problem persists". I've waited an hour and rebooted twice with no luck. I'm rooted running the stock ROM.

Download, install and run busybox
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] valorian13:
I did that. Is there something specific i'm supposed to do in busybox?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] fastmatt613:
Just an update. Worked like a charm! The cashier at Wawa was blown away. So was my friend lol. Great job op! How do I send you a donation? Didn't see any link in the first post

Are you trying to download Google wallet in the app store?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Prl91:
Did you open up busybox and run the smart install? The busybox app on the market is just a wrapper. You need to install the actual busybox executable from inside the busybox app. If you want to check for a successful installation, go under "/system/xbin" and see if "busybox" is there.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Prl91:
There should be a donation link under my name in the users box appended to each post. You'll have to visit the site via a computer or from the browser to see it. I'm glad it worked for you! And thanks for considering a donation!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] valorian13:
Thanks for the help everyone. I made a stupid mistake when trying it the first time. I rebuilt the Build.prop before setting up Google Wallet. :o Redid the steps the correct way and it worked.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Prl91:
It's fine! Everyone makes mistakes : ) Just glad you got it working!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] annoyingduck:
One thing I've noticed with the general operation of wallet - the directions say to unlock device, tap, done, "you may be asked to type in pin, type pin and radio again". All of this is true, but I am always asked to type in the pin, I have never just been able to do one step and just tap.

Pre-loading wallet (opening app, entering pin) then tapping works, but again the pin needs to be entered. In curious to know if always entering the pin is required for us because we're running a modified variation of the app. What do you guys think, has anyone actually been able to truly do the "one step" method without entering your pin?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Prl91:
As far as I know, you always have to enter your pin. Unless you setup a longer timeout.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] TechSavvy2:
I would think that would be a rather hefty security issue with no pin. Anyone could pick up your phone and pay for whatever the hell they wanted as long as it was NFC capable. No bueno.....

Unless I'm misunderstanding exactly what you're asking???
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] calaski8123:
Thanks for the great work. I had this up and running in no time on my Verizon GS3 with Synergy ROM. I began to have some issues with Synergy recently so I just switched over to Hyperdrive ROM and so far I like it. I have everything up except for wallet. I actually tried installing with your wallet installer and got all kinds of errors because I didn't reset wallet before switching ROMs. It hung at setup, then I remember I didn't reset it so I switched back to synergy but it was too late. I got a msg to reset it and I tried but then it hung trying to delete my data and payment cards and then it told me my device was not fully initialized.

For those with the same problem, this is how I fixed it. I restored my last good backup. Wiped data in application manager including any updates and wiped TB. Then I uninstalled wallet. Then I went online to Google then the wallet section and disabled the app on my device. Then I rebooted into recovery and wiped the caches. Then I restarted and then used wallet installer. After the reboot it optimized my apps. I started wallet and it updated the app and did the setup screen. It finally got to the screen to choose which account and setup wallet. It setup OK and my cards appeared. Then rebooted and then I reset and removed all the data and payment cards from within wallet.

I have now reinstalled Hyperdrive ROM but before I try wallet installer I have a question. I know it changes your build prop so that it thinks your GS3 is a galaxy nexus to work but this particular ROM has my model number thinking its a galaxy note 2. Under about phone it says the model is SCH-1605 and the hardware version is I535.10. So, will wallet installer work on this particular ROM when it already is showing a different model number? If the installer won't work, can I install wallet by manually editing the build prop? It was working flawlessly and I really want it back.

Thanks for everyone's hard work. If anyone needs extra details on how I fixed my messed up wallet above let me know.

Jim
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Prl91:
I'm glad you've had success with it! As for the issue with your ROM, as long as the build.prop isn't changed already it should work.

Device not ready

I'm trying to get wallet to work but I keep running into a device not ready error. It tells me my device hasn't been initialized. I saw another case buried in the thread but the solution given didn't help me.

What I have done:

Fresh rom install. Basic set up. Select install wallet. I wait. It restarts. Screen saying Android is upgrading. Wallet app in app drawer. Turn on NFC. Open Wallet. I get the error.

ROM: Hyperdrive RLS6

Rom Type: JB TouchWiz

Kernel: imoseyon leanKernel v1.8

Model: SCH-I605

BusyBox v1.21.0

Wallet Installer v3

-JB TW

-VZW

Am I doing something wrong or am I just unlucky? Also, I looked at my build prop with root explorer after receiving the error and noticed that it was blank. I replaced it with a backup build.prop and it didn't change anything. Also also, I tried manually altering the build.prop but it refused to save anything besides the original build prop.

EDIT: I found my problem. In my build.prop, the product model was SCH-I605. I think it was so my ROM could use some Note 2 applications. I changed it to SCH-I535 and Wallet Installer worked like it was supposed to.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] calaski8123:
I have not edited the new ROM's build prop but I just went and looked at it and this is its current form...

ro.product.model=SCH-I605

ro.product.brand=Verizon

ro.product.name=d2vzw

ro.product.device=d2vzw

Do you still think it will work with the model listed as a note 2?

As for the poster above... I fixed mine by playing around but I had a good working backup to go back to and then reset it. I'm sorry I can't help you more. Have you tried going online to Google and resetting it from within the Google website?

Jim
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Prl91:
You will need to change it to an S3.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] calaski8123:
OK thanks.. Bear with me, I'm good with ROM's and mod's but not editing. So I just make a backup copy of this build prop, then edit it so model reads SCH-I535. Then save it. Then run wallet installer and then once I add a card, I can rename my original build prop backup?

Jim
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] calaski8123:
Ok actually I found out how to do it from within the thread on the Hyperdrive ROM. After using Wallet installer, I had to edit the build.prop and then reboot. I was able to get Wallet installed and its up and running, but whenever I restore the build.prop back to what it was SCH-I506 or edit it to be SCH-I535, I get an error and Wallet will not run. It says that my network or device are not supported. I'm not talking about the little notice of an unsupported device at the top of Wallet while it is running... This is a message that comes on when you first start the app and it will not run anymore. I edited the build prop back to Galaxy Nexus, Yakju and maguro and rebooted and it seems to be working again... I'm just not sure what propblems I will cause if I leave the build prop that way?

Hey, I am also using CM 10.1 nightly on my at&t gs3 and google wallet is not working. I want to use this app to fix it. But I am not sure which ROM setting I should chose in the application (Wallet Insataller)? Should it be AOSP? Help is appreciated.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] smelkus:
Yes, CM is based on AOSP (Android Open Source Platform). The other choice is for TouchWiz (ROM using Samsung's base/overlay).
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Mikestony:
Hey Smelkus! THE smelkus! Developer of the best recovery for the Evo4G!! I know you don't know me but had to slightly derail this thread to say hey:)

o.k..back on topic...sorry...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] IISaintII:
Thanks for the reply. I did what u said and installed googlr wallet. However i get message on top of my wallet app "unsupported device". Is there something i am missing, again?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] dmalakianic300:
Card Error

I installed everything and set it up perfect, I even changed back to standard build. I have an Amex card linked on my app and when I try to use it (vending machine at work) The pad on the Machine says Master Card not Amex. I ended up just swiping my card, is there something I did wrong, or has someone else experienced this issue as well?

Thanks.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kentedman:
it says "unsupported device" because you are rooted. Ignore it, the wallet works anyway.

---------- Post added at 04:06 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:01 PM ----------

I havent used it with Amex, but I've noticed when I use it with my Visa, the last 4 numbers of the card on the printed receipt don't ever match. I believe it's due to the way Google Wallet is acting as a virtual intermediary in the transaction. Store | Google | Amex | You. The store isnt actually charging Amex, It's charging Google, who in turn charges Amex.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Menardo:
Has anyone got this working correctly on the latest galaxy mod rom?! 16
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] MIKEYFTP:
I for some reason can't restore my build prop through the installer. It goes through the process reboots but still says in a galaxy nexus in about phone. Is there a trick to it haha? I'm sure I'm just a dummy and its something simple. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] natsnation87:
I have got it working but appears to have messed up my TW stock exchange email. Nothing refreshes and doesn't show any previous emails.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] vudugan:
Can't figure out the deal with exchange either but you can delete account and re add to get it going again.

Caution

Dude, l had the same issue. And when i used this app to restore my phone back to SGS3, it didn't restart. I had to run recovery and even had hard time trying to enter recovery mod. Nvm i m not messing with this for a while.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] WettbackMartyr:
1. Have you ever messed with your

build.prop before manually??? This could effect the apps ability to restore the build.prop because I believe it is looking for a stock gs3 build.prop.

2. You are using a galaxy s3 correct?

This app has worked flawlessly for me around 10+ times now regardless of ROM. Just have to remember to reset wallet from within app before wiping and flashing and delete with TiBu for good measure and it's good to go for the next ROM! COULDN'T BE EASIER!!!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Prl91:
Thanks for the positive input WettbackMartyr : )
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] calaski8123:
I have a suspicion that Google has changed something. I went back to Synergy ROM because I wasn't happy leaving my build.prop as a GNex... When I used Goo Manager, it thought my device was an AT&T and could have easily screwed things up. I wasn't going to take a chance installing the wrong app or file by mistake.

Anyway, I had Google Wallet up and running without any problems for a few weeks and made about 20 flawless purchases with it. I had some unrelated issues with Synergy and tried HypderDrive. I went back to Synergy (a newer release than before) and I installed Wallet again. I got it up and running but as soon as I restored the Build.prop, rebooted and tried to start wallet I got an error that stated: Unfortunately, Google Wallet is not yet available for your device or mobile network.

Now here is why I think the change might be on Google's end. The first go round, when I used the Wallet Installer app, it just installed Wallet and then I set it up. This time around, I installed wallet and then I saw that Wallet updated via the Play Store to a newer version. The new version would not work like it had before.

Is it possible that Google Wallet now checks build.prop even after setting it up, meaning that we can no longer install by just changing the build.prop and then changing it back? I'm not a DEV but I can't think of any other reason why Wallet worked 100% before and now it won't. Although it is a different release, it is the same ROM. The only other thing I could do right now to test is to restore the older version of Synergy ROM and see if it works or not but I don't have time right now. I need a working phone and am very busy at work/training/school until the middle of March.

Any thoughts?

Jim
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] calaski8123:
OK I got Wallet to work! I couldn't use the Wallter Installer though and I am not sure why. I just did the manual procedure where you edit your build.prop manually. I did do two things differently: 1) on the manual instructions, it says that in addition to resetting any existing Wallet app on your phone, you also need to go into application manager under settings and if there is a button that says UNINSTALL UPDATES you need to hit that button. I did, and reverted the Wallet app back to the original form. Second, I downloaded a newer updated patched wallet APK from the manual post. I'm not sure why this one would work and the one downloaded via the Wallet Installer would not? The new version is 1.6 R96-v13. I have restored by original build.prop and it is still running. I have not tested it with a purchase but I'm confident it will work. I am not even gettign the Unsupported Device warning at the top of the app. It looks golden.

Here is the link to the manual procedure. VERY SIMPLE. Download the proper APK to your SD Card. Edit your build.prop, reboot to recovery and install and then setup wallet and edit the build.prop again. Very happy to be back. Follow the easy instructions here:

While its apparent you're only trying to help, posting a link to that particular thread is disrespectful to the OP of this thread. He has provided countless avenues of assistance and help to people and has always kept his app up to date for the most part. He is selling the app and in my humble opinion deserves whatever funds he gets from the sales. By posting that link you completely side swipe him and divert people to choose another way to install wallet in HIS very own thread.

Not trying to sound mean or anything but seeing as how he's replied to every post I see when I pop in this thread, it shouldn't go unsaid.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] calaski8123:
Wow.. I thought the Forums were here for helping people. I appreciate the OP and what he accomplished. I used his app before and it was excellent and I expressed that. I have since run into problems and have been trying to figure this out. I posted a link so that anyone else here having the same problem might be able to also fix their issue. I have a suspicion that Google may have changed something in a recent update that prevented the installer from working... I would think this info might be beneficial to the OP since he may need that to update his app. Have nothing against the OP, quite the contrary, but the primary purpose of forums is to help people not a commercial to sell items. I posted another method so people had the correct info and didn't brick their devices following my general recap of what I was able to do.

Jim
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] WettbackMartyr:
I think what fafinaf is getting at is that this is the correct place to discuss the wallet installer app and any issue associated with it so we can collectively solve as many issues as possible so anybody can benefit from it. The proper way to send people off into another direction if they were experiencing the same problem as you would be to invite people to PM you asking you what solution you found for the problem you were having.

Bottom line is your input is appreciated and welcomed, but there is a proper time and PLACE for all discussions to be had.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Prl91:
Sorry that I haven't been able to reply quickly lately. Anyways, I don't mind people sharing other methods, I just ask that it is done via PM. I only enforce that because people sometimes jump between forums and ask other Devs/OPs questions about alternate methods. It can be confusing and sometimes even detrimental to the user's device. Most users already have tried, or have heard of the other methods anyways. I do ask that you take the link down, since I personally direct users with problems to solutions. Not trying to be a dictator! Lol I'm just trying to look out for users.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] calaski8123:
Fair enough... I hear you.

I was posting here because I had used this installer before and it worked but I tried to now and it wasn't working. I was trying to figure it out so that I could still use the installer. I have posted a bunch of times in past few days here. My last one was simply to say I figured out a solution and suspected there was a change that prevented this wallet installer from working and that info could be used to update his app.

Jim
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Prl91:
Thanks for the information Jim! Sorry it took so long to get back to you. Since no one responded I forgot to check the thread.(No notification) Anyways, Wallet Installer is still working. It just seems to bump heads with certain 4.2 ROMs.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] celyko:
Is there any chance this will work on the note 2?

Troubleshooting...

Used the Wallet installer on a rooted/stock SGS3... install went perfectly.

NFC is on.

Can add additional cards, etc.

However, I can't seem to make a purchase. When I place my phone near a reader nothing ever happens.

Is there any troubleshooting tips that might help me figure out how to resolve this?

Thanks all!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Lilrascalsinc:
Not to sound like a jerk but the nfc is turned on. Also battery might be bad. I have found I need to touch the bottom part of my phone to the reader. Have you tested the nfc/s-beam with another phone and see if it transfers
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] rexxcastle:
I used this on my Note 2 from ATT and it worked fine using cleanrom ACE

I chose "JB TW" and "ATT"
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] hxphan:
Works great on my at&t GS3 with CM10.1 rom.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Prl91:
That's great! Technically the only reason this won't work is because of your build.prop, unless you mod it to a supported device. I also wasn't sure if the libraries would work. Glad to hear that they do though!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] annoyingduck:
That's interesting, so does your app use a script for the build, or does it copy the build. I can only see it working if it copies the build first, or you'd be restoring an s3 build. Curious because a friend has a note 2 vzw and wants wallet, but he's shaky on the current method for thier device
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Prl91:
It renames the stock build.prop to build.prop.bak, then filters through the build.prop.bak, without modifying it, to create a new specially modified build.prop for the device it's running on.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] 56K:
I get a FC if I try to look at transactions.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] WettbackMartyr:
In the 10+ times I've used the installer this has never happened to me. If you have not restored your build.prop I would do that first... Then I would suggest resetting wallet from settings within the app > clear data and uninstall with either TiBu or root file explorer >and reboot... Then reinstall the installer and run it again. Could have simply been a corrupt download from servers. It's the easiest place to start.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] 56K:
How do I go about restoring the build prop?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] WettbackMartyr:
Open wallet installer app. There's a button below carrier and ROM selection that says "restore build.prop"
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Prl91:
Thanks for helping, WettbackMartyr!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] WettbackMartyr:
Not a problem friend. I owe you for creating this awesome app!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Prl91:
Thanks! : )
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tducote:
Also, as an f.y.i.: If you somehow manage to lose your build.prop in all the flashing and wallet installation processes (like I did a while back), re-flashing your ROM will restore your build.prop. This will also, of course, remove Wallet. So if you are having a bunch of trouble and need a fresh build.prop, you can re-flash your ROM, re-run Prl's kickass Wallet Installer to install Wallet, and then re-re-run Prl's Installer to restore your build.prop.

Hopefully, you can avoid all this hassle, but I figured I'd mention it for the other newblets like me.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] lvgdgts:
I just flashed Hyperdrive 8.1 and this requires an edit of the build.prop to reflect the device as a Galaxy Nexus. I think I backspaced too far and goofed something up. Will someone look in their build.prop and tell me what the line "ro.product.mode" line should read? TIA
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] WettbackMartyr:
Wow! You did back space too far. That line is "ro.product.model" = "SCH-I535" for a Verizon Galaxy S3. But entirely depends on what carrier you have so if you don't have vzw then its different! Let me know if you can't figure it out.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tducote:
It should be "ro.product.model=SCH-I535".
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] lvgdgts:
With Hyperdrive, the phone model gets listed as an SCH-i605, so this needs to be changed to Galaxy Nexus.I didn't have the "l" in model. Thanks much!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kteicher:
Install went perfectly. Was able to add cards without any error.

NFC is working as I can read/write nfc tags.

However, Wallet doesn't seem to work. Touching the phone to a reader at the store does absolutely nothing. No beeping, prompting, etc.

Any ideas on how to troubleshoot would be appreciated.

Thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] MorphiousGX:
Your screen must be on first. Not unlocked (although preferred), but on.

You will then get a prompt for your pin and follow directions
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] annoyingduck:
The quickest way to do it is to set the wallet app as a lockscreen ring target or a lockscreen shortcut if on tw rom. Then just go to it quickly while your in line waiting to pay, or right when you get to the register, enter pin before you tap the phone, and then pay in one step.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] MorphiousGX:
Nice. Why didn't I think of that?
