Anyone here have the Stock JB update released today working with Google Wallet? I want to update, but I want to keep Wallet working and not break it in the process. If you had success, please share what you did to keep or restore it.
Thanks!
-Rob
ive switched between 10+ different roms and had wallet workign on all of them. ive never done anything when switching. just cleared data and installed new roms like normal
i use the scripts method and flash the app in recovery after the new rom is installed
never tried on stock though, i dont see why it wouldnt work though. just use the appropriate download. theres also a new mod in teh themes and app section that is an installer. check it out. i havent tried it yet
I have google wallet working with the update by following the instructions in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1810040 . Before updating make sure you reset google wallet.

And after you install it change your build back so it doesn't try and update the wallet app

This is my thread, which has unfortunately been shutdown by mods. There is an easier method in the themes and apps section.

Was wondering what was going on. Thought you locked it for your job search. Why was it locked up?

Nothing to see here, I'll wait til the official tool is released by the dev.
Looks like Adam has combined a bunch of the best root & recovery tools into one easy to use package. The DebugFS root is also available separately here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1792342
Im too much of a ***** to try this out but im hoping for the best!

Worked fine on my GS3. Love having the ability to root, recover, flash stock, and unroot all in one spot.

Depends on the root method. If this replaces the rom then yeah you will lose everything, but if you use this method:

then you will not have to change anything and it's pretty straight forward.

I had to do a factory reset on my phone yesterday to troubleshoot another issue, so I can't say 100% but the few changes I made earlier today (wallpaper, lock screen shortcuts, ringtones, installed Pandora) stayed in place. From the script, it just copies files over and then moves them to system partition during next couple boots. It does not wipe data / cache / dalvik like when you load a new ROM.
I don't know about the java tool here but the one Aquila mentioned ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1792342 ) works perfectly.
You won't lose settings or have to clear anything. Its really useful if you're on the VRALG1 firmwares and don't want to revert to LF2 from flashing a rooted ROM.
I downloaded to my pc, then hooked up my gs3 nothing? What an I suppose to do?
Never mind it worked

Should move this Thread to the development section. And let the Devs tell us if this is good or not, Pros and cons.
just noticed that Adam is a dev.but should move to development so it can be seen more!!
This tool works well without loss to data...of course no one but you is responsible if something goes wrong but from what I see it uses the debug method I have used it and obtained root fine

I'm going to go ahead and say it...
Adam posted this in the development thread where they are working on cracking the bootloader. If he wanted the masses to be using it or if it was ready for the masses to use he would have posted it outside of that thread.
I don't know if it was bc of this thread or not, but this got picked up by droid life and he had to take it down off the R&D thread.
Stuff like this shouldn't be reposted outside of that thread until it is ready and the dev who came up with it says it is ok to do so (or just posts it himself).

It may be safe, it may not be. I would go with there is a reason he hasn't released it to the public and you should use previously established methods for all this stuff.
Good point, wonder why he held back?

Has anyone been successful installing Google Now in their Skyrocket? I have tried the directions in every thread and no luck so far. I rooted my phone today just to install it. I would appreciate talking to anyone that has been successful.
Thanks

In order to help, we are going to need to know what ROM you are running and what method of install you used for starters.

OK im sorry for the lack of info. I will do the best I can as a a noob I might not get all of the the terms right. I have the stock rom. I installed the mikeyxdav7 zip file. When I open google search it brings up google now, I can get cards but nothing with voice. The microphone turns red and pulses and there are square mars below it that usually turns into words but they just stay the same I hope this is what you were looking for. Please bear with me as this is all new to an old guy like me.
Thanks
Mike
Have you done this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=29756226&postcount=2856
I think following that guide exactly should get you where you want to be.
However, I highly recommend SkyICS by seanscreamz, it is a touchwiz based ROM that has a fully tweaked and functional Google Now. The instructions can be a bit confusing on the initial install but once you get it, everything is awesome. (You can even go back to a stock "theme" by flashing the "no vvm no theme" zip.)
I know I didn't give you an exact answer but I would leave my trust in that first post.

Help I broke it
OK I admit it im a noob that has screwed up my skyrocket, or at least all of the google search function while I was trying to get google now installed. I did so many attempts I forgot all of the ways I tried. Is there a way to re-install or repair the google apps or at least the google search to the regular ics settings. Im frustrated and lost. Please help.
Mike
Did you make a nandroid backup before you started flashing zip files? The only answer I can give is that or ODIN.

Anyone have wallet up and running on aosp ROMs yet.??
Yes. All you need to do is edit your build.prop to reflect a device which wallet can be installed on. I recommenced changing to the Sprint variant which is the SPH-L710 or d2spr.
Search wallet and you will find plenty of threads on how to accomplish this.

its right in the google wallet thread in development...in the first post...
I was looking under Themes and Apps! Silly me LOL thanks sorry im an idiot.
np wasnt trying to be a **** lol. kinda reads taht way.
I'm rooted and unlocked running the hd radio and the g7 build. I just got an ota update message and postponed it for 2 hours. Will the update just fail?
I very happy with my phone as is and would prefer to wait on the update until all the devs have seen it.
I'm surprised I can't find a thread about it anywhere but someone must be in the same situation as I am?
Thx
Well there is this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1955746
just a few posts after yours.
Did you ever update to the HE build? That's probably all this is.
Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk 2
Well there are plenty of threads already about the recent OTA's. Freeze "sdm" using Titanium Backup or your favorite app that removes system apps. Either way, if you have a custom recovery installed then OTA's will fail. Plenty of devs have already seen this update, there is a VRALHE rom already available by Scrosler.

Thanks, I just got the ota message for the 1st time and expected I could easily find the thread but could not. I am so happy with Scott's vralg7 and the hd radios I just don't wanna rock the boat.....
I'll try freezing that file, what directory is it in?
Thanks again, I'm on an (gasp) iPad and can't find a thanks button butill push it when I'm on my pc.

I'm not sure, I'm on CleanRom 2.1 and it comes pre-removed. If searching yourself then I believe "sdm1.0" is under /system/app? I need someone to correct me on that. If you open Titanium Backup and select "System apps" though then it will be listed along with every system app installed. There's no searching for specific folder paths.
I also use an iPad. I rarely use xda from mine though, it's too difficult trying to reply use any forum website on an iPad haha

Sorry Kenny, my bad.....
Thanks to everyone for the advice. I ended up flashing Scott's rooted/deodexed VRALHE. I already had the HE radio. I didn't wipe anything and so far all is well. I assume I won't be prompted anymore for the OTA ? I'm gonna go flash hie 3 in one power menu and the 15 toggle thing.
Anyway.....Thanks
I figured that I might post this to help some people as I see this posted a lot.
Are you one of the ones that tried to install a custom recovery on the MF3 update? Are you facing a never ending boot sequence or device just freezing at boot screen?
Try this to help you get a normal boot so your phone is at least usable. (Note that your factory recovery will no longer work!)
First off, do a battery pull.
After you put the battery back in (make sure it's not plugged up) go into download mode.
Click Cancel instead of continuing into download mode. Chances are your device will boot up normal. I've tried this with a device I own and also tried it on a few others (through PM and chat online).
If this works for you please let me know!
Lol I figured this out in 2 mins of owning the phone.

Yeah it'd be good to have this info in a better titled thread than it was...and an even better titled thread than this one.

Anyways, it was first discovered here, as far as I can tell:

And there's an alternative method too, if that didn't work:

Guys I'd appreciate it if you didn't spam up this topic with nonsense.
The phone is not bricked for one.
It was never publicly announced what to do one these forums that I could find.
Edit: I just read your posted topics and neither one says to do this
The questions are asked every day by people.
This post has potential to stop some messages.
Stop posting here just to get your post count up. If you don't have anything relavent to say then find another topic.
For the guys post above me thanks for adding more ways to help try to do a workaround even though you tried to undermine me here.

If you're stuck in download mode and cannot get to your OS, I think that counts as a brick! Yes, btw, post 11 in the first thread I linked shows the solution which I have been telling others to do...which you did us the favor of making a post about as well. I agree that it's good to make this post, though I think your thread title could be more useful if you edited it.
Also, should this method not work for some people, an alternative method is a good thing to have.
Thanks again and have a nice day! :good:

I think my suggestion in post #8 is still a good one.
Your current thread title makes it sound like you tried to flash a custom recovery on MF3 and it didn't work. There's no way anyone would read that title and think there's a "How To" guide in it.
Alright maybe that will work.

Lol I found this thread after I figured it out for myself. I was kind of hoping this would lead me into a way to get back my recovery.
This is how I fixed my brick.
Flashed this file in ODIN. Now my phone boots normally. Got it from another thread with a diff issue here on XDA. I tried it and it worked. Wish I could remember where and what the thread was called. I believe it was this thread. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2360859
