Zero changes, remember I said it didn't work yesterday either but I said it might have been their reader? I made sure to avoid that reader today and use the one next to it that I have always used in the past and it worked no problem this time. Like many have stated before it could very easily be those readers (I've seen then go down many times in the past at same locations where they worked before).

Also it's VERY important that you have a data signal at the time of transaction or this will not work at all.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dseda86:
I always have a data signal, tried several locations. Duane reade and 7-11 different readers each time I've tried several time.

Since this is becoming more of a rom related thing I'm starting to think it has to do with custom features. For instance: my current rom, beans build 6 has the option to use the nfc from the lockscreen and that change where ever it is made could possibly be messing it up. Does anyone know where this is? I'm imagining something with the framework.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] open1your1eyes0:
If yourself or anyone are not sure, my best recommendation is just do a full backup of your current ROM and save it somewhere, full wipe and install the stock VRUAME7 build, set everything up and test out Google Wallet as per my post and you will know if it's your location or your ROM. Then you can make a decision from there or PM your ROM developer to see if they can troubleshoot the support on their end.

I wish I could support and troubleshoot custom ROMs but unfortunately there are too many variants to consider, I only included AOSP ROMs before because they should work at stock requiring no NFC lib/apk fixes even, but I also warned for them YMMV depending on the support in the ROM (Google Play Edition ROM might work?).
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ct_tec313:
yep just tested at Mcdonalds two for two dont need to change anything....you are the man open
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ct_tec313:
Heres the pic
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dseda86:
I'm going to a try bonestock. A user on here had success with it, so i will give it a go. If it works, then beans does not support the new wallet.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ct_tec313:
I want to give a BIG shout to open1your1eyes0 for getting wallet to work, but i also want to give a big shout out to google for making it easier to hack, no build.prop changes no exposed module, google knew what they were doing when they released this app....screw verizon:p
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dseda86:
Ahhh you were the user. I'm about to try bone stock. If it doesn't work for me, I'm throwing my phone out the window.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ct_tec313:
lol, it will work, i didn't do anything special bro.....just make sure they are tapping credit on the cash register cause if not it wont go through.........
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dseda86:
Yeah, at 711 they have to tap keypad input but I know what you're saying. At this point I'm led to believe it's a rom issue. I'll be posting results tomorrow with a purchase. Maybe tonight. We'll see! Gotta set this rom up though!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] open1your1eyes0:
Best of luck dseda86! I know you've been dealing with the frustrations on this one for a while now. We must never give up the fight against carriers banning Google Wallet NFC payments!

PS. Thankfully there's ONE thing that Sprint is useful for (files to pull for other carriers on the same device). :P
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dseda86:
Lol thanks, that's all sprints good for. So here are the steps I'm going to follow. Install rom, immediately after I will flash your zip. Set up wallet and hope for the best.

Sound about right?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ct_tec313:
GO dseda86!!!! can't wait to go into verizon tomorrow and buy some screen protectors and use google wallet to pay for it!!!!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] open1your1eyes0:
Yep, basically that's the gist of it if you're starting from a fresh flashed/wiped ROM.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ckelly33:
I can't wait to hear your results. I was gonna just try a clean flash of the ROM I'm currently running (Eclipse 2.0). Seems like less trouble (and less risk)!

Now screw tomorrow! Go buy some decaf at McDonald's!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dseda86:
So heres what happened...I flashed BoneStock 1.1.4, which I heard someone using it through safestrap had the newest version of wallet working just fine with purchases and all that. I wiped 3x clean flash of the rom. Without even booting up the rom I installed the latest flashable zip. I setup the rom and booted up, turned on nfc no problems so far. I open up wallet, set it up Tap to pay all set up right?

So I'm thinking...this is great, here we go, lets test for the fellas. I go grab my protein bar, tell the cashier credit, tap my phone. Wallet activates, I enter my pin.....annnndddddddddd......unsuccessful again. Same old message, reader detected your last purchase might have been unsuccessful.

New rom, new zip, no good. I have no effing idea :(
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] open1your1eyes0:
Willing to test the old Wallet to see if it's working for you at that same location? At this point we know it can't be the ROM or the Mod since both of us got it working (as well as a few others on other ROMs). My guess is something is either up with that location or maybe new Wallet has some updated NFC system (the readers in my CVS looked brand new so I wouldn't be surprised they're the most up-to-date).
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dseda86:
I'll try the old mod tomorrow, it worked before I flashed the new one
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] bills742:
After flashing the new version exactly following the steps, is anybody else's gps messed up? My phone is constantly "searching using GPS" and doesn't lock. I'm on bonestock by the way.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dansan382:
should be no different between this working on your ME7 build and the MDK build right?

surprised it needs a data connection to work when google wallet didnt need to before. might end up installing and testing this!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] p-slim:
After updating to the new wallet I was able to set up fine but nfc tap payments do not process anymore
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dseda86:
What ROM are you using, it's hit or miss for some and nobody knows why lol
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] p-slim:
I'm using beans rom. I'll just follow the thread till a fix is posted
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dseda86:
I can't get it to work on Beans either, the old version works for you correct?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] p-slim:
Yes the old version worked perfectly before I updated.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] croldan72:
I followed these steps to install wallet. Running stock TW, MDK - rooted with TWRP on VZW. Tap to pay is activated. Tested on a vending machine and didn't work. Will have to test at known working location.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jerrah:
just installed with that method. will try and 7-11 on my way to work in a an hour. running goldeneye 6.3 on ATT
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] JuanNut:
Just used tap and pay using this new wallet mod, and it worked like a charm. I am using cleanROM 1.6.5 on VZW :D

Oh also I am unlocked using TWRP 2.5, if that matters.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dseda86:
Just reverted to the old version of wallet and tested at a location I had failure with on the new version. It worked (old version) same location same reader that didn't work in the past.

With all the changing of roms and wiping I've done, would someone be willing that has the latest wallet working on their rom to make a backup and then try beans build 6 with the latest version and see if it works. I haven't seen one person using this rom that has had success with beans b6
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jerrah:
So after using it at 7-11 worked right away GoldenEye 6.3 ATT
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ckelly33:
I was sent a tool that supposedly works but leaves your phone thinking that it is a Nexus 4. While not ideal, would there be a downside to letting my phone think it a Nexus 4 until the real fix comes along?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dseda86:
You just told the guy credit and tapped your phone right? Did you have to verify the amount on the keypad or tap and payment went through?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] JuanNut:
I didn't have to. BTW I am on beans 6 and have set up wallet to see if it works for me, just need an excuse to go out now. I'll ley you know how it goes.

---------- Post added at 07:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:40 PM ----------

Sorry. I didn't read all the way through the post. I just tapped and it went right through.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jerrah:
i didnt tell him anything i just put my phone right to it and it paid and thats it. got the receipt in like 2 secs he didnt do anything. didnt need to tap or confirm anything
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dseda86:
Let me know what happens using beans buddy!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] JuanNut:
Sadly I got no love with beans. :confused: but clean rom works for me

---------- Post added at 08:09 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:08 PM ----------

I usually do not have great success with ME7 roms and wallet anyway.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dseda86:
I'm using the old version on Beans no problem, I wonder what the discrepancy is with custom roms and wallet.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] JuanNut:
Not sure. I was able to get old Wallet to work with beans as well, but not this new one.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dseda86:
Personally I think some place in the framework or services that allows for nfc from the lockscreen is messing it up.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ckelly33:
A few posts up, I said that a guy over in the Eclipse ROM forum posted an .zip that allows it to run and Eclipse is a custom ROM. It just tells the phone that it is a Nexus 4 rather than an S4.

I posted that to ask if there was an downside/harm to allowing the phone to be "changed" to a Nexus 4 for this purpose. Anyone know?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dseda86:
I think the issue lies within the services. Jar or framework somewhere because on this rom I can use nfc from the lockscreen without unlocking.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] JuanNut:
Well that is what this mods does. I checked in the wallet app and it thinks my phone is a nexus but only for that app. Phone settings think it is S4.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ckelly33:
Wow. Didn't know you could separate id's for a particular app only.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dseda86:
It's changed in the apk. The reason is not working on some roms is a nfc framework issue.

Is anyone running eclipse? Does it allow you to use nfc from the lockscreen?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Redflea:
Appears to have worked for me, says Tap and Pay is ready. Won't be able to try a transaction until tomorrow...

Bonestock 1.1.3.

Thanks!!

So I'm on rooted vzw S4 stock me7....thinking of installing SS....does this mean once SS is installed all I have to do is flash this to stock ROM? Google wallet is not installed yet. Just asking cause hashcode recommended not flashing to stock rom
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Bjray:
ATT user here running AOSP (SlimBean 4.3 - Build 1). I'm pretty sure this has already been tried already but... What about if I set my build.prop to the S4 Google Edition (ro.product.model | ro.product.name | ro.product.device)? since on the official website they say it's supported. But keep it set permanently, it wouldn't mess up anything would it? Seems better than forcing my S4 to have an identity crisis like it's a GN or N4 haha.

The interface is different and I was in a hurry and didn't notice that I hadn't fully set it up at McDonalds. Once I did, payment for my second cup of coffee worked fine :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Redflea:
Bonestock version?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Poofster:
did you use the download and does the download have google wallet in it so I just flash that file only and everything is good to go?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] fletch33:
Well I need to test mine again. I was in store talking to my rep and we realized I never updated mg SIM to NFC SIM. So going to install and try again cause they may have been the issue.

Will report

Every time I see your avatar I either hear the Fletch music in my head or Moooooon River.

Thanks for the memories Mr.Babar.:laugh:

And just so this isn't seen as off-topic....good luck with your Wallet transaction!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dseda86:
NFC for Wallet comes from the battery
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] JuanNut:
But you do need a NFC sim card or it will not work
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Poofster:
How do you know if its NFC sim card?

The Xposed installer has to stay installed when all is said and done to make it stick?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] crovax33:
What do I do if (after flashing and rebooting) the xposed installer is not showing up in my app drawer?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dopediculous:
Method A worked perfectly! Thanks!

BTW, I did it without ANY existing Google Wallet apk installed (just incase peeps were wondering)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] open1your1eyes0:
Unfortunately I don't have one to test it.

That's correct. The Xposed installer is what manages the Google Wallet patch.

Go into you application manager > "All" tab > go all the way to bottom and double check to see if you have it disabled.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] open1your1eyes0:
FYI guys, I'm working with my good friend DroidModd3rX to see if he can make us a nice tutorial video. :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] crovax33:
Weird. It's showing up there, not disabled (even in TiBu), but it's not in my app drawer and I can't really run it.

EDIT: Fixed it by force stopping and reboot. Shows up now, thanks!

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] JT114881:
Tested on Slimbean and this is not working. Flashing the AOSP Only zip causes all NFC settings to disappear and you need to restore from a backup or reflash the ROM to get them back.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] open1your1eyes0:
Found the bug and fixing this immediately! Thank you for pointing this out. Pulling AOSP version till then (few minutes).
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] open1your1eyes0:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] brizey:
Only for Isis. Wallet works fine without it. Well, the old wallet with the old fix did, lol.

Honestly, the old wallet works fine, and the new app just doesn't offer anything compelling. It's just a decade late attempt by Google to grab some share of the payments business from PayPal. I'm just sticking with the old version for now.

Edit: if course, my old version just failed at toys r us. Sigh...even more honestly, nfc payment is so hit or miss it's kind of worthless.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jerrah:
yea sometime nfc is meh, took like 4 tries to get a coke from the machine but i think those NFC soda machines that take credit suck anyway, i would always get declined even tho my card was perfectly fine lol.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] albertdc:
I don't see the first post updated with this. I have to wait until Tues before trying this (long story), but I want to confirm that this method looks like it is working well for stock ME7, right. I have a phone that came with ME7. I installed safe strap in preparation for installing your zip. I'm not planning on ROM's, etc. I can just install that zip to the stock Rom on the phone, right? ...or would you install a second stock ME7 as a separate Rom and install the zip to that one?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] RJV3:
Coming from darkslide rom and just switched to the newest build of hyperdrive. No instance of the old wallet apk was on the phone.

Just downloaded the test app and flashed in recovery.

Rebooted and set up the wallet app.

Tap and pay was ready to go.

Went over to my local gas station where I know the POS terminal had no issues when I ran the old wallet apk.

With the new apk, I was able to get all the way to where the transaction summation was to show up, but only got a message saying payment status unknown, check with cashier for payment status.

Obviously it did not work , but I don't know if its was an error on the part of the cashier or if something wrong with the app.

Does anyone have a successful outcome using this test zip and running hyperdrive?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jsmith45:
At the moment the only reported successes for the new 2.0 wallet in this thread with actual transaction confirmation come from the Stock ME7 ROM, and the Bone Stock ROM. Others seems to be able to install and run, but not have the transactions succeed.

It remains unclear why other TW derivatives are failing. It is known that non TW ROMs lack portions of the NFC framework needed. I tend to suspect that if Hyperdrive were working with transactions, somebody would have confirmed it already. It sounds like you may be confirming that it does not work, or at least not reliably.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] RJV3:
Just received a pm from another member who is confirmed. ING to have the new wallet app working on hyper drive rl9.1 build.

I do not have his permission or consent to post his reply on here as this member does not have enough post to reply directly. Once I get more specifics on his install and try out the method for myself I'll reply here. Looks like there may be hope yet.

Just wanted to give an update. When I tried the first time to make a purchase at whataburger the transaction went through. Then I tried at Walgreens and got a error message. The next day I tried at McDonalds and was successful. Later that day I tried a soda vending machine at work I had used with the previous wallet version which had worked, it didn't work. I just went to whataburger again and it worked flawlessly. It seems to be hit or miss for some reason that doesn't make sense. When it was unsuccessful, i received the same error msg as everyone else. Running Verizon SCH-I545, odex, MDK and xposed region disable is unchecked.

Does Wallet read/write to Urandom? I have been trying to figure out why I cant get it going. I tried it while running Crossbreeder & KT'S kernel which I think uses the newer Frandom file, & I can't even get Wallet to open. As soon as I install it, it force closes. I'm currently running Wallet just fine on MDOB with the stock kernel & Crossbreeder installed. When I was running KT's kernel on same ROM, logcat said that the error came from not being able to read/write to Urandom. Anybody in here have any experience with this?
