EVERYONE I HAVE A SOLUTION TO A PROBLEM

WE ALL WONDER WHY SOME RETAILERS DON'T WORK WHEN YOU TAP YOUR PHONE. HERE IS THE SOLUTION.

Ok guys. So what I found out and I have tested at 7 locations that previously were not working when tapping the paywave. Ask the cashier to press credit first. This for some reason activates the paywave listener service on the card readers. So when you goto purchase just ask the cashier to press the CREDIT key on their side and then tap. Works every time at every retailer that previously was not working for me. Hope this helps everyone. Warlocklord. Please post this in OP.

I didn't have to ask to push credit with my s3....
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Deckoz2302:
Im not saying you have to. Im saying for the stores that it seems like thier system is inactive. Where your phone registers thier device but thiers doesnt pick it up. Its because thier software has paywave disabled. If I try to use my credit card on the paywave it doesnt register either. But when they push credit both my card or giogle wallet work. Meaning that thier paywave reader is inactive by default until credit is selected. Some stores have thier paywave always active, this Is just a solution to the stores that seem to not register anything.

If you're running a rom based on. 4.1.2, I'm told the only thing you need is the wallet apk,. Do not flash the zip. Extract wallet from it and push to /system/app/ and set permissions as appropriate.

I have been extremely frustrated getting this working. I have an AT&T phone, but since that thread was derived from this one I figured I would come here for help:

Guys... I am getting extremely frustrated, and it seems like no one is willing to help, or seeing my pleas for help (there have been many).

PLEASE NOTE.... I LIVE 15 MILES from the nearest place to test this (round trip). This isn't exactly around the block from me, so I REALLY need some clear and concise help getting this to work. This is my second attempt at doing this (after a full wipe and upgrade to 4.1.2 I tried again) and both times I am getting the exact same result (pictured below this post). PLEASE NOTE, I would like this to work without having to wipe my device again, so please let me know what file(s) I need to delete to either restart this process or whatever.

I am going to list the OP step by step and the results I saw. I am hoping SOMEONE can please help me, because this has been quite an ordeal.

ORIGINAL POST (listed step by step).

Ok this step is really badly written IMO, but here is what I did. Using Root Explorer I extracted all of the files which extracted to /sdcard/SpeedSoftware/Extracted. Two directories were extracted (with files and directories under them) - /system and /META-INF.

I deleted the two NFC files in /sdcard/SpeedSoftware/Extracted/system/app as per this post -> http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=36004767&postcount=265

I then copied /sdcard/SpeedSoftware/Extracted/system and /sdcard/SpeedSoftware/Extracted/META-INF to /

Every file that I pasted from the zip file to / (so every subfile in /system and /META-INF I went into the pasted copy and changed permissions to 3 checks in the first column and 1 in the second.

Self explanatory. Did through Root Explorer text editor

ok

Took 1-2 minutes but DID NOT FORCE CLOSE, instead it asked me to associate the Google account to use with wallet.

ok

Done

When I did this, I got the error that my device wasn't supported despite my build.prop being changed.

I believe I was able to do this.

Did this

Done

Done

Yes they were

Done

Restored old build.prop

Someone make a video and I will donate. I had it working on Beans 3, but on Beans 4 it keeps telling me there was an unexpected error when adding the cards. Also, I noticed that after installing (even though cards not successfully added) all S-Note functions are broken. Have to reflash build 4 to get it back.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] coreydkoster:
It seems like you are set up ok. Not sure what you were doing with the META-INF stuff though as you do not have to push any of that to your system.

The error that you got when you actually tried to use the wallet app is a pretty common error and most likely has to do with store and not your setup.

One other thing I don't think I've seen mentioned in this thread. Sign into Google wallet on your pc and make sure that your cards have the correct billing address associated with them. Not sure if it was just coincidence but I had the wrong address associated with my card and I could not get my wallet app to work until after I changed my address.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Taxmaster:
Can someone confirm this? I have seen both sides of the country on this one within this thread. .... Some say that Wallet won't work with CleanROM, and others have said that it was easy to make work by just copying a file and changing its permissions.

Once again, a video would be really helpful for someone running CleanROM that got it to work. I'm really tired of soft bricking and following the same instructions and expecting a different result each time. ...

Thanks so much for this! Worked perfectly on my Sprint Note II. Only thing I ran into is that after following steps and getting Wallet working the WiFi Tether (TrevE Mod) stopped working (It would actually turn on the phones wifi). I was able to get it working again by uninstalling busy box and the wifi app, booting into recovery, wiping cache and dalvik and then fixing permissions. Then I reinstalled and ran busybox and the wifi tethering app :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] x0lliex:
I am running CleanROM (3.5 on VZW Note II) and have Wallet working, I did the following (edited version of Twix's instructions):

1) Create a Nandroid backup in Recovery.

2) Extract the wallet APK from NoteII-lib_nfc-fix-r87.zip and paste it in /system/app (make sure you have system mounted R/W).

3) Run Google Wallet and it will most likely crash at "Setting up Google Wallet. This may take 5 minutes."

4)Remove the Wallet apk from system/app

5) Edit build.prop (in the system folder) to be a Galaxy Nexus (CHANGES MADE BELOW).

ro.product.model=Galaxy Nexus

ro.product.name=yakju

product.device=maguro

6) Save and Exit then long press build.prop and make sure permissions are Owner: R/W Group: R Others: R

7) Reboot

8) Download Google Wallet from the Play Store

9) Run wallet and when it resets and asks which account you would like to use for Wallet, close the app.

10) DELETE (not uninstall) the Wallet apk from data/app

11) Re-paste the wallet APK from NoteII-lib_nfc-fix-r87.zip in to /system/app (make sure you have system mounted R/W).

12) Long press on the wallet apk file you copied and set permissions to Owner: R/W Group: R Others: R

13) Reboot

14) Run Wallet and go through the setup. It should work now instead of crashing.

15) Reboot

16) Run Wallet. If it still works after the reboot, change your build.prop back to where it was originally (CHANGES BELOW).

ro.product.model=SCH-I605

ro.product.name=t0ltevzw

product.device= t0ltevzw

17) Make sure the build.prop permissions are still Owner: R/W Group: R Others: R

18) Make another Nandroid backup.

This is the process I followed with CleanROM 3.5 and my Wallet now works. One odd thing is that it does not work as well as it used to on my Galaxy Nexus. With my Note II I have used wallet at 7-11, Pinkberry and a vending machine, no problem, but only 1 in 4 McDonalds did Wallet work. Whereas in these same locations, my Galaxy Nexus worked. Maybe we still need some sort of hacked NFC files for 4.1.2 ROMs. All I know is that I tried the hacked NFC files in the zip files and it gave me gallery crashes, so I reverted to a Nandroid backup.

I haven't tested to see if it works, but all the steps on the first try went okay! Thanks for the mod! I do have one question now my GN2 is showing up in play as a Nexus device.

I did verify:

16) Run Wallet. If it still works after the reboot, change your build.prop back to where it was originally (CHANGES BELOW).

I cleared cache and stopped google play. Any thoughts?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] GermanGuy:
Restore your original build.prop file (if you backed it up) and your S-Note functions will work again.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] WarlockLord:
If you're bootlooping after build.prop changes, you are not setting the permissions correctly.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] WarlockLord:
The note is not an approved wallet device. You will not see it on the Google Wallet site unless it ever does become approved. Provisioning the device generates the name and we can't provision as the note 2.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Taxmaster:
I set the permissions exactly as the instructions said. This is the 3rd time I've soft bricked and I'm following exactly what people are saying I should be doing. We really really need a video.

If you people see this while using google wallet, this is due to sync issue. If you have installed this correctly, google wallet will sync properly. What can you do to fix this? None. You have to reflash your nandroid and start all over again, but not the way you installed....it just didn't work out. I try the following and it works everytime.

1. Make sure you have your nandroid stored in your phone.

2. Restart to custom recovery - > wipe dalvik cache and cache in partition -> flash Notell-lib_nfc-fix-r87.zip and restart the system

3. Open up your root explorer -> go to system -> app -> mount system as R/W -> remove Google Wallet apk

4. Go back to system folder and find build.prop -> Edit build.prop as following

ro.product.model=Galaxy Nexus

ro.product.name=yakju

product.device=maguro

5. save and exit -> long press build.prop-> permission, and check the following

Owner: R/W

R/W Group: R

Others: R

6. Restart the phone. When you get to main screen, download google wallet from play store, and don't bother opening or setting it up; wallet needs to be completely off

7. Open up your root explorer-> data -> app (double check if it's mounted as R/W) -> remove wallet apk

8. Find the Notell-lib_nfc-fix-r87.zip file again and extract it in folder -> find wallet apk in system folder from extracted file -> copy wallet apk and paste it into system/app

9. Long press the wallet apk and change permission to

Owner: R/W

R/W Group: R

Others: R

10. restart the phone -> open google wallet app and set up wallet account. If everything works properly, close google wallet completely, and open root explorer-> system -> build.prop -> edit it back to where it was, save and exit

ro.product.model=SCH-I605

ro.product.name=t0ltevzw

product.device= t0ltevzw

11. Double check build.prop permission and check following again

Owner: R/W

R/W Group: R

Others: R

12. Go to setting-> Google account -> select your google account that is under -> make sure google wallet is synced -> restart the phone

13. go to custom recovery and make another nandroid -> restart the phone and done!

***(FOR JELLY BEANS BUILD 4 USERS) Please do not fix permission on recovery....your Samsung Keyboard may not work.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Milkman00:
Is there a way to inject the software without "flashing" it??? I have the stock recovery on my Note 2 and would like to keep it that way.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dcdgoth:
If you don't have custom rom, don't even try it because this may not work if you're just stock rooted. And you must have nandroid so that you can reflash it everytime you mess it up.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] coreydkoster:
This is not true. It will work on stock rooted. You do have a good point though about being able to nandroid.

---------- Post added at 07:32 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:25 PM ----------

Yes, do like you did before in your previous post. Extract the files from the zip and place them into the correct system folders. Do not forget to set correct permissions and remember that you do not have to do anything with the META-INF files.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Milkman00:
I have seen that when everything is said and done, when in Google Wallet there is one line near the top that says "Unsupported Device", but Wallet still works.

Should I see this on my Note when the steps are complete?

Edit:

Attached is the picture that I am referring to:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] GermanGuy:
I disagree that this is a sync issue. It has something to do with the setup at the individual store. One day I had that error message come up at a CVS store, half an hour later it worked just fine at McDonald's.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] nrinzema:
I went to reflash beans and before I did so, I went into wallet and did a reset. The phone got stuck two steps before 100%, arrrgh.

Then I thought if I changed the build prop it might complete the reset, tried again to do the reset after modifying build prop and rebooting, still stuck!

At this point I was worried the secure element was toast, then I remembered you can check device status at google.com/wallet, from there I could see a gnex device and a inactive status.

Breathed a sigh of relief, flashed beans 4, followed updated op steps, went to the store checked out with and it worked, profit!

Thought I would share to compare notes on reset and also to help anyone that was concerned about reflashing their phone.

Thanks!

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dcdgoth:
Well, some sense you're right...sometimes you get that message in one store but other stores don't. And this is because you didn't tap the device long enough. For instance, when I pay with google wallet in Stater Bros, I have to tap and wait for 2 seconds or I'll get that error message. But at McDonalds, google wallet works right away upon touching it on the pad. I don't think this is the case here. If I constantly get that messages every time I use it, then I have to suspect that something went wrong....and i'm sure the google wallet is not linked properly. How do I know? I went to setting-> google account -> google wallet sync and checked the exact time that I used it.....but it had no records of being used.

I was talking about my method.....and yes, it will work. But could you enlighten us and show how to do it? Because I don't think my method works on stock rooted.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Milkman00:
Why do you think that?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dcdgoth:
did it work for you? lol
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] coreydkoster:
No need to enlighten..... follow the directions in the op. Worked for me the first time on stock rooted.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dcdgoth:
directions in which op? and which post? i think it NEEDS to be enlightened and you're not really being specific. it really needs to be addressed so that everyone can grasp what's going on. or maybe you didn't get it? lmao
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Its TwiX:
OP = Original Post (first post)/Original Poster.

There is a very detailed guide in the OP that was updated quite recently.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] coreydkoster:
There is only 1 op. I'm not here to try and rewrite the instructions over and over. The instructions in the op (the first post to be specific) work. I cannot help people follow these instructions. If they follow them it will work. I think the real problem here is people thinking that, because it did not work at the first store they went to, they botched the set up. In fact the setup is the easy part. Finding a store in which the app actually works is what has been difficult for me. My wallet app only works in 1 of 5 stores around me.

If you can open the app and see your cards and your cards are properly set up in Google wallet (check from a pc to see if billing address of card is correct) it should work. Just try it at as many stores as you can.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dono222:
Worked for me. On Bean v4. Followed the instructions on the OP. As long as you get the concept of what's being done, your steps to achieve it may be a little different because each setup is different. I already had my cards added on my nexus 7, so I didn't have to add cards, just had to click setup on the card. Everything worked... do the changes like OP said. Don't forget steps with permissions and deleting files, unziping, and placing files in the right place, editing build.prop saving it, permissions, reboot. Follow the sequence in OP. Had to do it a couple of times cause I had originally installed Wallet on my Note 2 before doing any of this and hoped it would work out of the box... haha... wishful thinking (damn VZW for crippling it, suck it to VZW :). Guess that's the new moto. So had to deal with trying to remove the one I initially installed, flashing the OP's version, etc...

Now need to go to the store and test.

UPDATE: Tested at Walgreens, but didn't work for me. It registered at the paypass card slider as google wallet, but that's it. Cashier said didn't work. Tried a couple of times, then just paid cash. But I noticed that my flashbar crashes after I flash the zip. Restored a nandroid backup, flash the zip. Flashbar doesn't work after the flash.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] lennykravitz2004:
Even those of us on Sprint are using this mod. This works, plain and simple.

:good:

Now, how well it works might be a little different story, but that does not reflect on the OP or this fix he's given us. Why?

As already pointed out, some retailers do not seem to want to work with Wallet. Only tried one CVS (but tried it a few different days), and Wallet will not complete transaction there. Two different McD's and one Home Depot, though, tell me this works.

Having said that, I found small differences even between HD and McD's.

McD's transaction gives me the "Reader Detected" error for a quick second or two, then I get a "success" message. Happened both times at two different McD's. Appears to not want to work, but it will work given a couple of extra seconds on/near the payment pad.

Home Depot transaction went through right away. Worked exactly as if I swiped my card. What was different from McD's is that I was prompted for my PIN at HD since my card is both credit and debit. Reader took card/read phone's nfc right away.

Now, these differences very well may be tied to their normal CC swipe process which is usually set up either on, or in conjunction with, their POS system.

Also, as pointed out as well, depending on what you already may have in place, your starting point in the instructions may differ. Big point (again, as mentioned) is if you already have an existing Wallet account.

Lastly, I noticed that actually using the phone (the tap-to-pay process) is a tad bit different than I anticipated. When I first got it to work at a McD's, I pulled the phone away from the payment pad too soon. Did it a second time, this time leaving it on/near the pad until I received the success message, and it worked. You will hear a tone/beep - do not pull the phone away when you hear it, as the nfc is still transmitting data. Wait for the cashier to say it went through, or for the receipt to start to pop up on your screen.

HTH.

And thanks again to the OP.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] vinas1:
You have to choose credit as the payment type of the phone just waits... working for me on a T-Mobile stock rooted gn2. I mainly use it at rite aid and meijers and gas...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] tbns:
I swear it's bizarre - I do exactly the same thing one time, do it another time, and get different results. Anyways, it *looks* like Google Wallet might be working on CleanRom 3.5 Verizon for me. My cards are setup, and I have one selected. Now I just have to go out and try it today.

I tried following OPs instructions. After initial r87 flash, I opened Google Wallet, got the setup screen for a good bit of time, then it directed me to turn on NFC. Turned on NFC, hit back button, and it was on setup screen for a while. Then I got an error message to the effect of 'device not ready, check network connection, etc.'. So I deleted APK, changed build prop to Galaxy Nexus, rebooted, installed from google play, opened, got some NFC error popups, and then Google Wallet crashed. Deleted that apk from data/app, and installed the one from the r87 zip to system/app. Opened, and everything seems to be setup just fine. Changed build.prop back, rebooted, and Google Wallet still opens, lets me put in PIN, and shows all my cards. So I'll be going to Home Depot today to give it a shot. Keeping fingers crossed.

UPDATE: I'm getting a lot of 'NFC has stopped working.' warnings at random times. Any ideas? ----- NEVERMIND, forgot that cleanrom was 4.1.2 and the nfc libraries arent compatible as suggested earlier.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] WarlockLord:
I think the not detected problem lies in our Nfc apk's. I have used wallet on the galaxy nexus, the one x, the s3, and now the note 2 and i have never had to had the success issue before, i still use wallet at all the same places.

How are users on clean rom doing with the success message? Are they getting it too? I'm curious if the 4.1.2 apk's help.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] amendolaro1:
I originally had issues with this on build 1 of beans and never tried again as everywhere I went I was declined but my actual card worked. Figured I'd try with new info from OP. Worked like a champ at BJs :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] ricekrispytreats:
So I flashed the zip from OP, was able to set up Google wallet and all my cards.

Do I need to follow the other steps? Or is flashing the zip good enough?

Thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] WarlockLord:
I started using jelly thunder blackout last night, which I ported to Verizon, and so far it's the easiest wallet setup yet with the most success.I'm thinking the 4.1.2 binaries have something to do with it. I've received permission from the dev to start a thread for a vzw port of the Rom, so look forward to that later on.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] galchristian:
@ step 3 it says if it crashes. But what if it doesn't and I'm just stuck at the this may take up to 5mins but it says that since 15 already.

Edit: Never mind. I skipped the crashing part and continued with the rest of the steps...worked well. Now I just have to use it and report if it really works :)

Edit again: Went to a CVS where I always go to and it wouldn't work as usual. I have Gwallet on my nexus then S3 and now the N2. Have never seen this message before
