This worked perfectly! Thank you!

Should I keep the settings" I have read that changing the setting back would interfere with Wallet. I know that this installer has the build.prop restore and I have not seen any users have a problem after restoring the values (in this thread). What happens if I keep the build.prop as it is below?

Thanks again for the assist!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Prl91:
Nothing bad will happen. You just may have a few odd occurrences, such as certain apps having different layouts, or apps like ROM Manager(on first run) not recognizing you as an S3. I would recommend the restore, but it's not required.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] mspayde:
Changed back using your app, worked perfectly and Wallet works perfectly as well. You are AWESOME, thank you for the app, your hard work, your assistance and your time! Take care!

Michael

PS, I just downloaded your ad killer app.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Prl91:
Thanks! : ) AdKiller was actually made as an appinventor app. It was a little project I took on to test out it's capabilities. It actually turned out not too bad!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] gocats7:
It looks like it's going to work for me but Google wallet says unsupported device? Card is added, seems to be setup?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Prl91:
That message just shows because you are rooted. Wallet will still work!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] gocats7:
Awesome. Will try it out today and rate after that. Process couldn't have been easier. Great app.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Prl91:
Thanks : )
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] gocats7:
OK, had a problem. Went to restore build prop and when it rebooted would show Samsung, the Samsung galaxy s3.....then blank screen. Wouldn't do anything. Restored a nandriod do I am back
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Prl91:
It sounds like there was an error backing up your build.prop. This is the first time I've heard of this happening. I'm sorry that you had an issue. I would recommend reinstalling with my program, but before you restore the build.prop this time, check under /system that build.prop.bak is there, and that it is filled with text. It sounds like it didn't successfully make a backup, or the text in the backup was erased somehow.

**You can also manually delete build.prop, rename build.prop.bak to build.prop, and then reboot if you would prefer that.**
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] gocats7:
good suggestions, thanks.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Prl91:
No problem. I just want to make sure my users are happy with my product. If you have any other questions/issues feel free to post them or pm me.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] gocats7:
The nandroid I restored was tasks aokp...was on pacman. Busy box is installed. When I run your app, it doesn't modify the build prop and wallet won't initialize. Suggestions? Have tried three times.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Prl91:
It sounds like you may have already attempted a build.prop change on your backup a while ago. It will only modify it if it's set to the correct device. If you give me a second I can update this post with the values you need to swap, and then reboot.

ro.product.model=Galaxy Nexus

ro.product.name=yakju

ro.product.device=maguro
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] gocats7:
I haven't tired to manually modify it, only what the app did. It is currently set to sgh-i747. Will try your suggestions later. Thanks
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Prl91:
The other two build.prop values were probably modified with the app. For some reason some of your build.props have different values for your device. I use the standard values to check, while some ROMs use a different value. I would just recommend using the values I gave you and put them in.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] johnnywayne28:
I had a slight issue first time I tried all went well(no custom kernel), Then I needed to do a fresh rom flash (stock rooted deoxed)to get rid of some junk files causing battery issues.

So I reset wallet flashed my Rom flashed custom Kernel (Koontez) re installed apps and then went to install wallet and bam straight to TWRP didn't install.

So I rebooted and Samsung screen only, had to do a dirty flash back to my rom since I didn't have any TWRP backups yet. then backed up immediately.

I will give it a try again now I have a backup.

Got your ad killer while I was on the play store as well tired of all the chat adds on donkey clown midget porn web site.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Prl91:
If it jumped straight to the reboot it sounds like you didn't have a good connection to download the files. Trying again with a decent connection and see how it goes. Thanks for purchasing my apps! AdKiller was a little project in appinventor a while ago. It's not a native app, but it seems to do pretty well!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] johnnywayne28:
It worked flawlessly this time.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Prl91:
Great! It was probably your connection.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] will900:
I did have the problem that when i tried restore build it didn't take then i tried again and the i got stuck in the Samsung screen but i reflashed my ROM. Retied everything again and it restored the build this time so all good now :thumbup:
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Prl91:
Glad you got it worked out!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] gocats7:
Used Google wallet twice today, worked like a champ. Thanks man. People looked at me like I was some sort of wizard!! It was funny.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Prl91:
Haha Nice! Glad you like it : )
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] MasterDecker:
Please listen to the voice of EXPERIENCE....

Lately I have been beta testing on several devices for this and a couple other apps from our FANTASTIC developers here on XDA. But this evening, oddly in between my fourth and eight beer I decided "What the hell," and installed your app to both my Asus Transformer Eee Pad TF101, and my Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket.

My transformer became a soft brick, as well as my skyrocket. Both had been pre installed with TWRP, so that is not the issue. HOWEVER after my 9'th or was it 12'th can of clarity, I realized WTH am I doing, and both had to be restored to the latest recovery. Both are Stock, only rooted.

So please folks before you go and do something dumb like I did. DON'T DO IT.

Side note, the app is still running strong on my GS III, without a single hitch out of 18 purchases.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Prl91:
Lol I'm not sure why you flashed it to your other devices! I can't tell if you're upset or are just messing around, but this is specifically only for GS3's. Also, on a side note, Google pulled my app from the market tonight, so it will be made free for all to have on XDA that are using any of the supported carrier models.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] will900:
That sucks :banghead:

I guess it was matter of time.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] ConeyKiller:
Might want to update your OP for people, since it was yanked.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Prl91:
I'm getting to it. I didn't have any free time earlier.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] crazililazn:
I've never installed Google Wallet before, but since it's winter break I thought, why not :D. This app seems to make the process a lot simpler, but I have a couple of questions:

1. Does this app backup your original build.prop and have an option to restore it later, or does it just restore a generic build.prop dependent on your carrier? The reason I'm asking this is because of the different build.prop mods that custom ROMs could have.

2. Do you still need to reset Google Wallet every time you install a new ROM?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Prl91:
1) It backups up your actual build.prop, so all mods and tweaks are saved.

2) Yes, every time you want to clean flash a ROM, reset Wallet.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] crazililazn:
Alrighty, looking forward to trying your app!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Prl91:
Okay, thanks! I haven't swapped out the versions yet, but I will once I'm home.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] crazililazn:
The stable release doesn't work for me. I select JB TW and AT&T and then the phone reboots into recovery. Nothing happens.

I am currently using TWRP 2.3.2.3. Any solutions to this?

EDIT 1: NVM, apparently busybox not only has to be installed, but it has to be in /system/bin not /system/xbin.

EDIT 2: Restoring the build.prop doesn't work for me. The device name is still Galaxy Nexus. Other than the build.prop restore issue, everything else worked fine, was able to add my card with no issues. Now to find a place where I can test it....
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Prl91:
I'm guessing you ran my app twice? If you did, it overwrote the build.prop backup. That's why the restore option didn't work for you.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] andy_d0:
Hi. Thanks for this app. I do have some questions before going forward...

1) I'm on a JB Rooted Stock ROM - how do I get it to be deodexed?

2) Is the TWRP 2 install temporary? I primarily use CWM
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Prl91:
Generally developers deodex the ROMs. Even if it is Odex you still should be good, But I would recommend using the stable version. You can flash back over TWRP anytime you want.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] crazililazn:
Oh that makes sense! My busybox was in the wrong directory, so I had to reinstall it and then run your app again.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] blackwolf13:
Ran your experimental. Worked great on mine. Running paranoid android 2.55 . Only make sure you set up wallet before you restore your backup. I had to install twice cause wallet fails to initialize after I restored. Also has an unsupported device message at the top of wallet, but it says this is due to the custom ROM. Will try it out next time I'm at the store.

Thnx man. I use CWM and have not tried twerp yet, so I had reservations. But you're experimental was flawless.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Prl91:
Okay! Glad to help.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] MasterDecker:
No, not mad at all. Just giving a bit of advice to others that may feel so inclined to do such things as I did. It was fun actually, trying to figure out what to do to get things working again. Besides, isn't any feed back good feedback to a developer?

Figures that they would pull it. More probably "forced to" pull it thanks to carriers not wanting it there.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] 416inversed:
Experimental soft bricked my phone. Reboots at to Samsung then black screen w/ pulsing vibrate.

Rooted At&t JB TW w/ busybox in /xbin.

Reflashed Mr Robinson in ODIN and Im unbrocked.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] andy_d0:
Looks like the install worked but now every time I reboot I get a message that my Android apps are being upgraded. Is this to be expected? I restored the build.prop after installing
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] ConeyKiller:
Yes, its nothing to worry about. I installed wallet manually and it does the same. I'll take a little longer boot to have wallet on my phone.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Prl91:
Glad it worked for ya!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Prl91:
Haha Okay. There actually have been a few. Several people tried flashing it on Note 2's. They weren't messing around, they were actually mad it bricked their phone. I truly can't stand people who don't read and then expect me to get them out of a situation.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Prl91:
Try the stable version and see if it works for you.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] MasterDecker:
No, I knew the risks, but for S & G I decided to try any ways. I did ask for some assistance in the Eee pad forum, but no one answered so I figured it out myself. That one was the worst. I couldn't get into TWRP or any recovery. Poor lil Andy was on his back dead. My skyrocket was no problem, it rebooted into recovery and worked just fine.

I just figured I would add in the disclaimer to NOT do what I dun did. Yup, you dun did gunna mess up dat der purdy phone of yers ifn ya dun din't listen & foller dem dar directions. Maybe, just MAYBE dat der developer here might sum day write up some code so dat it'll werk wit your new fangled devices like duh Sky Rocket, or dat der Note, an ifn ya'll dun did ask him nice enuff, he might jus make it werk fer your fancy dancy Note II.

Until den, im justas happy with muh Galaxy S III & dat der Google Wallet.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Prl91:
Haha I'm not mad at you! I just get frustrated at people who can't seem to take the time to read, and then blame their screw ups on me.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] andy_d0:
Still would be good to know as to why it's necessary though

I mean everything seems to work just fine but is it that there is a process after every reboot that needs to happen so that the wallet works?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Prl91:
I've heard of that happening to a few people after installing Wallet. I don't know why it happens. If I were to take a guess, it would be that the user also attempted installing it in /data/app, but I can't say that for sure. It's just a guess.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Zugshad:
ok. installed it and went to try and install for mine.. and got a soft brick .. just flashed logo and then stayed blank and wouldnt boot.. and my retarded self forgot to double check had current backup :P so had to reflash another backup and then reinstall /noob :P anyway.. only thing i could think of was maybe not having busybox? currently on a JB TW rom.. and used the stable version and have TWRP installed..

how can i double check busybox.. i wanna say TiBu was the one and it says BusyBox1.18.4 ..do i have?? if not.. what other way to make sure installed etc... sorry for the retardedness :(
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Prl91:
Just do a search for busybox installer on the market, and use it's smart install option.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Zugshad:
k thnx

k installed it to the /xbin right?? gonna nandroid and then attempt the install again :D
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Prl91:
Correct! Some devices seem to point to /bin instead, but generally the rule of thumb is /xbin.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Zugshad:
ok.. attempting it again.. again.. it reboots to TWRP and it is just staying here on the home screen.. am i missing something or is it supposed to sit here for a min?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Prl91:
It sounds like you aren't getting a good download. Reboot to your ROM and try it again with a good connection.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] MasterDecker:
OH, ok I get it.

So your to blame for me consuming seven beers, then looking at my old phone and tablet and thinking...(you made me think this too.) Hey I should try that app on things it's not supposed to work on. THEN to blame you again for consuming a couple more beers while I realized I dun did goof up.

Ok, it's your fault I got drunk and decided to do it. (yes this is all tongue in cheek.) The good news is that once I got sober and the liquid clarity moment had passed, I was able to get both devices recovered.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] harlenm:
I also couldn't get the app to work, but only on ultimatum 2.0. Worked fine on loserrom.

Would boot to twrp, and stay there. If I reboot, the phone was bricked and I needed to reflash rom. Tried it 3 times and no luck. Finally just installed wallet manually.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Prl91:
Lmao Exactly!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Prl91:
Sorry you had trouble. Some ROMs seem to have issues.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] metalhawj:
please excuse my noobish question.

is this app supposed to install a working version of google wallet? I opened the experimental version of this app, and selected my rom/carrier. reboots. and then?

Was i supposed to have google wallet installed already before running this app?

the directions are kind of vague.

i installed wallet afterwards and the app says my phone is still an unsupported device because of root. and i cant register my card that is already on my google account.

task aokp 4.1.2 att
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Prl91:
Sorry for the wait, but right now I'm waiting on my new development computer to come in the mail. Once I get it I will look into making a final release, and maybe adding support for other devices. Until then, I would appreciate it if other users could lend a helping hand to people who are struggling. I have a lot on my plate since it's almost Christmas, so I don't have as much time as I did before when I could respond so quickly. Thank you!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] dwd3885:
Experimental installation worked great on my S3 running CM 10.1. Thanks
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Prl91:
Correct. It does install A working version of Google Wallet. No, you are not supposed to have Wallet pre-installed.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Prl91:
Great!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] metalhawj:
if it didnt install a wallet app, is there any thing i can do to fix it? Im not going to use the flashable apk bcause i dont want to flash twrp.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Prl91:
At the moment, no, there is nothing you can do to edit the experimental version to make it work. In a day or two, I will hopefully have the newest version released which will be stable and won't use a recovery. I would recommend waiting til then if you don't want to use V1.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] peneoark:
Sorry I never tested the beta. I've been battling with 4.2.1 lol
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Prl91:
That's okay!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] andy_d0:
So it's not common? I never tried installing it in any other way but this app.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Prl91:
It seems like maybe 10% of people have that happen. I really don't know why it does that.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] gocats7:
Im one of your customers from when it was on the play store.....how is V1 coming?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Prl91:
Thank you! Actually, I'm working on V3. It should be the most stable release that doesn't use a recovery. It should be out in the next few days.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] MasterDecker:
Yay liquid clarity night. When you get some free time, if like to pick you brain like a digital vulture. I've got an app concept that I could use some thoughts on.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] djmouse:
finally

i got it working with the new version 3,im on urban inception 1.1 took a few tries but i dropped file to root of my sd internal card opened it selected tw-jb and att install wallet rebooted set it up then went back to installer and clicked rebuild and it rebooted back and says agh-1747 now checked wallet app still there and working good work.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Prl91:
Good! V3 should work better for most.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] djmouse:
stoopid question

im kinda a noob i cant post where i want cause i need 10 post, but question because this may have been the reason i had to use my back up so many times trying this, im running urban inception rom now i thought anything that wasnt stock was aosp android open source project the wallet ap wasent working when i was selecting that, i know this isnt the place go read the forums i have i been flashing and reading for the last 3 months since i got the sg3
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Prl91:
I'm not sure what you're trying to say.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] djmouse:
ummmmmmm

im saying i was selecting aosp for rom when installing the wallet it wasnt working,when i tried selecting touch wiz jb it worked,question is i thought any thing other then a stock rom was an aosp rom, so i would have thought that i would have only selected the twjb option if i was just running a stock rom that was rooted
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Prl91:
Just because a ROM isn't stock doesn't mean it's not TouchWiz based. Some developers like to create TouchWiz ROMs that seem close to AOSP, but most developers post what it is.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] djmouse:
understood

yea i understand that, you can have a rom with touch wiz or with nova launcher or whatever,i must not understand what aosp i thought any custom rom was an aosp rom, the rom im running is tw based but i thought it was asop becuase someone created it idk, the more i read i see that aosp must be the code or what they used to make a rom ,i just remember in the post for the rom im running him saying i made this from scratch im still learning all this thanks for even answering me ,bottom line is i dont know what aosp is, i know its andriod open source project i just figured every custom rom was and open source project
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Prl91:
It's a little complicated to explain, and I would prefer keeping posts to Wallet Installer issues/remarks. Please refer to threads that differentiate between the various ROMs. Thank you.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] djmouse:
no problem

no problem,I'm just glad that the wallets working how much was the app going for on the app store id like to donate after i see it work in the sotre though,haha thanks tho for letting me be a pain, one last question where will wallet work
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Prl91:
You don't have to donate, but if you want to, it was $2 on the market. There are several places. McDonalds, CVS, Walgreens, 7-11... There's a full list online somewhere.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] djmouse:
donate

done

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] llanero75:
Hello, I downloaded and installed fine, but when I went to do the set up its telling me that I need to enable NFC , I go to settings and there's no NFC, it seems that it's been removed on the rom that I'm running. Does anyone has any clue how to enable this or what I'm doing wrong.

Thanks
