I seem to have royally screwed up Google Wallet - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III

So I changed ROMs and forgot to wipe the secure element so I went on googles site and reset my device that way.
It said it couldn't do it so I restored a backup with wallet already configured.
It's been stuck on Initalizing device for an hour, if I uninstall it, it gets stuck on Adding Account...
And my device is still not reset according to google. Did I **** up?

Did you backup before changing roms?

No, but I had a backup with my secure element from the very first time.
It's stuck on initializing or adding account if I do a fresh install.
I've searched around to no avail.

Is that backup before or after you logged into wallet? Like I made a backup of a rom immediately after I logged into wallet, now if I forget to reset wallet and flash a rom I can restore that backup, reset wallet in the restore then re flash whatever new rom and ill be good.

After. But it still doesn't work.
Also I get a [DF-BPA-21] error whenever I try to purchase any apps. It doesn't even recognize apps that I have purchased in the past.

IV had to try multiple roms to fix it on my own even roms that previously worked wouldn't but then the next one did. I had it hang at initializing also at adding card. My best advice, even tho you have tried is restore, reset wallet, wipe data/cache/system/dalvik, then try a couple different roms that have wallet working or flash the files via cwm that enable wallet I can link you if you need. I'm really sorry if none of this works I know every situation is unique

Did you use a method that changed the build prop to make wallet work and then after you loaded your cards did you change your build prop back? If so you may have made your nandroid after changing the build prop back to factory. If so try redoing the gw hack.

ok that makes sense just never seen that before

Your id number has changed???

Please I am super new to most of what I am trying to do with my phone and I pretty much have two thirds of it down. I have my stock and current rom backed up, contacts as well as my apps with tibu.
I am successful wiping and clean flashing the selected rom and I get it to install no problem. My biggest problem is when I go to restore apps with tibu it says that my Id
Number has changed and I am left with 3 options accept new Id, ask me later, and restore my old/ original one. Now when I pressed restore original it immediately rebooted me and it when restarted
It brought me to a disoriented lock screen that would not unlock.
I am currently running clean rom 5.5.1 and tried to install galaxy mod rl 15 on my Verizon galaxy s3
Any comments or help offered would be greatly appreciated

Your most likely trying to restore a system app or data. This is fine if your on the same rom but will only cause problems when your restoring to another rom. Backup only apps you have installed and use mybackup pro or go backup for sms mms call logs and the such. If you do this you won't see that issue arise again

On galaxy mod you need to disable ripple effect in lock screen options due to use of a custom lockscreen. Do a battery pull, reboot and go straight to settings and disable that and you will be good.

He is on stock and CR so he doesn't have the lock screen problem others face. His problem stems from system apps being restored on a different rom

My real question is when in titanium fresh after a flash with intentions on restoring my app only no data it stops me and says "your id # has changed, would you like to accept new number, ask me later, or restore original and when I restored old id # it rebooted me and locked me at the lock screen and would not allow me to unlock resulting in a battery pull and a restore of original rom what am I supposed to be doing to get past this ignore it change a setting in titanium or accept new number and does that hurt or change any thing on my phone

http://rootzwiki.com/topic/27224-ever-have-titanium-backup-tell-you-that-your-android-id-has-changed-do-you-restore-it-or-not/
Seems like the ID is used by some apps to keep track of devices their software is installed on. Not restoring it will muck up some.
This was added to TIBU months ago on all fresh installs of TIBU. It is there to allow you to access games and such that you have been banned from as they use this ID to mark your account. Just hit the restore previous. It wii reboot and all will be good.
OK maybe some one could point in the right direction of how to back up android id and by the way everyone has been super helpful thank you guys a ton

[Q] Help me recover contacts after installing custom ROM please?

So here is what happened.
I had a stock 2.3.4 droid 2 global from Verizon with the .629 update.
Used Framaroot to root it.
I used Titanium Backup to backup my contacts being the idiot that I am not thinking it wouldn't work. I also thought I had the contacts backed up to google but it seems I didn't.
I flashed over to this custom ROM LiquidICS 1.6 unofficial droid 2 global version which I can't link to.
Now Titanium Backup isn't letting me restore the contacts that I backed up.
For whatever reason even though I used ClockworkMod to backup my current ROM it isn't in my SD card which really pisses me off because I confirmed it was there before flashing over to liquidics.
If anyone knows either a way to get the contact files from 2.3.4 working with 4.0.4 or knows of a place where I could find just the ROM of the stock 2.3.4 or a different custom ROM that would work with the contact files from 2.3.4 that would be great.
I would prefer not having to go find a flash drive or a CD to use to SBF back to 2.3.4. But if that is my only way to do it I will do so.
So please help.
Did you back them up through Verizon because if you did you can easily restore them from that.

I thought I had but, at least for now anyways, I keep getting various errors where backup assistant is just not working at all for me. So I was hoping for something besides that.
Here are the apps/files I have backed up in Titanium Backup
ContactsData 2.3.4
Contacts Sync 2.3.4
Contacts 4.0.4-e(displayed as contacts 2.3.4 (10) by the actual restore button)
I am really hoping there is a way to somehow get those files working with my current system. If not I have to decide if it is worth rolling back and then going back to my new ROM and setting everything up again. Honestly not sure if it is just to get the contacts back.
Did you try going to verizons website and see if your contacts are somewhere on there and cam be pushed back to your phone.

...Just like I said in my first post backup assistant is not working for me. As in both the website and the app.
I really doubt you will be able to use Blur's contact data on a non-Blur ROM.
(And your main mistake, as I see it, was using Phone Contacts instead of syncing contacts with your Google account.)

So do you know where I can get a .ZIP of the Blur ROM?
And yea I know I messed up.
Try looking on RootzWiki; I remember someone posting a clockworkmod backup of stock 4.5.629.
I don't have one since I am still on 4.5.608 (and not planning to update — I like having the ability to downgrade if I want to).

Emergency..... Need help!

I updated my phone through Kies and now it just hangs at the AT&T screen after Android does it's optimizing thing. I have no idea what's going on but I CANNOT lose this data.
The factory Hard Reset is NOT an option!
Where to start?

You have to do a factory reset in recovery. You won't loose pictures, music, etc on your sd card. You will loose all your apps which you'll have to reinstall if you don't have them backed up.

Did you have those backed up to Google? It generally does that by default. You're kind of between a rock and a hard spot. If you can't get past the boot screen you'll have to do a reset, but contacts and text will be lost if they're not backed up somewhere else

That's why you should always nandroid. Lesson learned the hard way.

Flash a custom recovery through Odin then do a nandroid on the data, then download the firmware you were running and Odin that, flash custom recovery restore the nandroid. In theory u should be right back to were you were minus apps??

You both probably just need to manually set your APNs. It's different for every carrier so you'll need to Google your carriers APNs.
If I had a dollar for every time I said that, I'd be making money in a very weird way.
Aah, thanks for the hint! You were exactly right.
Luckily my ROM on system 1 works fine so I booted into it, backed up Phone/Messaging...(SMS/MMS/APN) with Titanium Backup, then restored it in my 4.4 ROM. Working like a champ now.
