Google Wallet build.prop edit

I made this for myself to make it easier to get google wallet working after I flash a rom, or when I'm just out and about. All this does is replace the build.prop with one that has the necessary changes to it.
From this:
ro.product.model=SCH-I535
ro.product.name=d2vzw
ro.product.device=d2vzw
To This:
ro.product.model=Galaxy Nexus
ro.product.name=yakju
ro.product.device=maguro
I have only tested this on my d2vzw on a CM10 based rom. Figured I would share in case anyone else wanted to save a couple seconds.
Thank's to imnuts for helping me figure out how to make a flashable zip!
EDIT: including the other zip I made to go back to normal when you don't need wallet.

Thanks
Edit : Google wallet keeps telling me to turn nfc on using aokp... Even after I do it. *Le sigh *

That's a new one for me, did you try to clear data in the wallet app? Should be working fine if NFC is turned on.

You install it in recovery, like a rom or kernel.

I'll flash aokp and try it out, is it the XDA version of AOKP, or the RootzWiki one that you're using?

Why you need to change the original version to the new one for S3? The original is not working?

Google Wallet doesn't support the verizon SGS3, so you have to change build.prop to make the phone think its a GSM Galaxy Nexus in order to get Google Wallet to work.

Should be, I tested it on a build from 2 day's ago and it worked fine for me. Flashing AOKP right now to see if it works as well.

This does in fact work with 8/31 AOKP build, had to flash this before I installed Google Wallet from the market, it installed, and Wallet booted right up for me.

I have used build.prop to get Wallet working before, but I can never seem to keep it working after going back to d2vzw. Anyone know what I might be doing wrong?

You are doing nothing wrong, if you go back to d2vzw, it won't work anymore. That's why I made the zip, for when I'm out and wanna use wallet, I can just flash the zip, and wallet works for me. Then I made another zip to flash after I'm done with it, that will flash it back to d2vzw.

TAPPED in on my (now unlocked bootloader) Verizon S3

question
So for clarity sake... If you are rooted with a custom rom... You can flash this at any time? Do you have to flash this before installing the app? And is there any harm in leaving the new build.prop file ?
Need to know what issues I might run into. I do like the easy flash method.
Thanks

It should continue to work as long as you don't clear the wallet app before reflashing the build prop back to the stock.

i have a clockwork mod recovery of my original rom (2.3.6) but cant seem to get it to install.
does anyone have another way to get my phone back to stock or anything else
thanks for the help

Need firmware info mate. Then I can help you. AT&T? 2.3.5? 2.3.6?

Agreed, Fall. The more info the better. What did you do to cause the phone to soft brick? I hope that if you were messing around with the ICS leak, you handled everything as if it were dynamite. You say you have CWM, I assume you also had/have the Atrix Bootstrap apk as well. (?) Did you install anything else, such as BootMenu? Be as exact about what happened, what you did, what all you had installed, and the above mentioned by Fall of Enosis. The more you can provide, the better he (we) can troubleshoot...

Are you sure you are using correct file? I have not fxz'ed my A2 yet but file size 2xxx seems really small. Fastboot/sbf flash files are pretty big and even bigger for A2 because gingerbread has full webtop.

Ask jim or alteredlikeness before you do this!!!
Seriously ask first!
If I understand correctly jims script and or alreredlikness's mod to said script leaves the mbm intact. You might be able to use their stuff for ics fxz back even though your only still on gb and never been on ics. The script way is simple IF they tell you it would work. Ask them personally first though. Good luck.

someone please tell what this 44mb ota update that became available this morning entails.
any way for someone with twrp recovery to install this ota since twrp interupts the update? through kies? or, any way to install the factory recovery back after having installed the twrp recovery?

If it's only 44MB, it's sure as hell not JB, so I wouldn't worry about that.
You can always get the stock recovery back by using ODIN to restore back to stock if you really want to see what the update is.

If you search, I'm sure you'd find out what is. I know its been posted already. All I can remember for sure is the new baseband.

i just found one stock recovery tar and will flash it using odin ( it is from an old post, july of this year ) and at the download link for the stock recovery tar md5 file it said it was not tested - so not certain if it is safe to not brick. stock recovery tar md5 for skyrocket is hard to find. that is what sucks, once you load a custom recovery, hope it is possible to get back to stock recovery.
thank you.

Did you change the build.prop or use the wallet installer.apk to get Google wallet working? That tricks your phone into thinking it's a nexus so wallet will work.

Possible NFC fix
Here is a link to a zip that you have to flash. A friend gave it to me to fix my nfc issue and it worked beautifully, he also used is and it fixed his nfc issue.

I take no responsibility for any negative repercussions that may occur due to you flashing this zip.
Hope this helps
Happy flashing from the cat.

Who created this file and what's it do to fix NFC? I switched to liquidsmooth beta2 and it works now.

You just answered your whole problem. Could have saved us a lot of time. If gonna jump around on ASOP based roms **** gonna be broke.

I'm rather paranoid about the secure element and potentially frying it when switching ROMs. I always reset Google Wallet and clear data before I flash in a new /system or do a factory reset.

Possible NFC fix
The zip was downloaded from a thread in the verizon general QA section. Not sure if I could find the thread because it was a friend who directed me to the zip. Also I'm not certain what is does to fix NFC I just know that after flashing it wallet was working for me.

This problem was resolved. It was liquidsmooth rc9 that was making my NFC not work. Switched to a different ROM and it worked. About to switch to rc9 and try the file in the post that a member posted in this thread though. Ls beta2 sucks!

[Q] Stock JB 4.1.2 from sgh-t989 to sgh-t769

Hi everybody...
I'm kinda new to Android...
I want to ask, is it possible to install the stock JB 4.1.2 firmware which belongs to Samsung galaxy SII (sgh-t989) on Samsung Galaxy Blaze 4G (sgh-t769)??

I would say no.

Agree with tommy.

It would solve a lot of problems with development if it did work though.

Thank you

Touchwiz jb 4.1.2+
Just curious, is it possible to port stock jb from sgh-t989 to the Blaze? Could we actually get a taste of real Touchwiz JellyBean?

I think that someone with a lot of porting experience can get this to (partially) work, I have no experience with porting what soever, but I do know Python and learning VB. Would be cool if I could use those in android

I hope someone may consider it. I am learning all this stuff with a lot of effort. I have until now been developing apps only... But ROM dev and porting, and kernel tweaking is really interesting. But you can use python in android...at least in app dev.

Wow, Somcom, you have already done it? Why haven't you posted that awesome ROM on our dev thread? But if you opt to keep it private, i would like to have a taste. Or at least teach me how you ported that ROM. I really wanna be a ROM dev and porter. Thanks for the hope.

Finished it about 3 hours ago.
WiFi is broken, keeping me from relasing.
Wasn't really a port, was more of recompiling the kernel and adding blaze support kind of thing. Only took me 9 hours...
This approach lets people flash any Hercules and skyrocket tw rom.

Do you have like tutorials for porting tw roms from similar devices(Hercules etc)? I would like to learn that. If not please give me some guidelines. I would really be thankful. Anyways you know a lot of stuff, have you ever considered passing that expertise to others? Oh well, i know there are a lot of tutorials on everything all over the forum and stuff, but maybe your way is different. You have done a lot of dev work, that's what i mean.

Ha ha.
No tutorials it's all prior knowledge.
Well here's how this project came to be :
1) read this thread
2) downloaded the source code
3) diffed the defconfigs of herc, the cm t769 and the ics apex one.
4) compiled a kernel
5) repacked boot.img
6) didn't boot
7) replaced my uber kernel with the compiled kernel
8) booted, no network, wifi, gapps.
9)Repeat 4,6,8, and 9 five times. 10) debug ril. Fixed
11) post screen shot
12) go to sleep

Thanks Somcom, I'll try that. But my ROM will probably get stuck on the bootscreen, or systemUI or android.core process will keep crashing , coz that's what happens to all my Roms. But thanks alot. I hope to see the 4.1.2 tw ROM soon. GREAT DEV WORK, REALLY GREAT...

Forgot to mention flash isn't working too

Wifi will be a while... Torch too..
They are linked to the libhardware_legacy.so lib, which can't be easily modified.

Yap, things aren't so bad. The broken features will, in time, get fixed. You couldn't possibly steal us a taste, would you?
