Ok, I rooted my GS3 a few weeks ago and now my Isis wallet won't work. it gives me an error stating that my phone is rooted. I think it has to do with superSU being installed on the internal memory. Someone told me to uninstall SU and then reinstall onto the SD card and it would work. I tried that and ended up having to flash a back up, then re-flashing the Rom. I don't really want to screw this up again but I really need to get Isis working. Please help.

Most XDA users that live in locations that ISIS is active (such as SLC) are boycotting the service because scumbag VZW blocked GWallet. It would be easier to load Wallet on your rooted phone.

Thats about right, I live in SLC and refuse to let ISIS anywhere near my phone. Not even when they had the promotion that was basically free public transportation when using ISIS to pay.
Isis is active everywhere, i live it in nj and used it all the time before root. I wish someone could get both google wallet and isis working on verizon galaxy s3.
waking an old thread but rooted and would like to use isis, how would one go about? i have nfc sim

I highly doubt you will ever find a solution to this. As I stated before, Verizon blocking Google Wallet ticked off most potential isis users. Anyway, good luck with finding a fix.

I have had the phone for 2 months and it has been rooted and I was using it with TrickDroid V4.3 for about a month now. All of a sudden this morning, the phone stopped connecting to any tmobile towers and has been displaying no service all day. I tried the usual fixes (re-seat SIM, hard reset, restore to stock) and nothing has fixed it. All the other features of the phone work, just cannot get cell service. I have tried a different sim card in the phone and it doesnt work, and my sim card works in another phone so that narrows it down to my hardware.

Connect to a wifi network and search for an update. One was released a few days ago with a new radio an firmware. Maybe thatll help. If not, have you dropped it recently? You may have damaged an antenna if so

Yeah, looks like it was blocked because the person i bought it from on craigslist never paid the installments for the phone. It seems like a very stupid system that t-mobile would block the IMEI instead of just going after the person defaulting on the payments.
Given that I will not be able to unblock it using conventional methods, is there really anything else I can do? Would it be useful to somebody in a different part of the world? Can I use Att on it? Will Straight Talk work on it, or does that eventually get routed to tmobile also?
Thanks!

You can purchase an unlock code for $4. It supports AT&T's 3G/4G bands.

You don't need to party for an unlock code. There's a tutorial in the dev section to tell you how to get it.
That's why you really have to be careful buying on Craigslist.

Yeah, I know about that way to get the unlock. Kinda a pain in my opinion, I'd rather pay $4.

OP,
Beware that some carriers share their blacklists between each other in an effort to "help" each other avoid bad customers.
Just food for thought.
Also, just thinking about this. You say it was working just fine then suddenly quit working. The story behind the phone's failed installment payments doesn't sound logical to me given the fact that you say it was working until just the other day.
Same thing was happening to me... I was confused.
But must have just been tower issues for me.

Sometimes it does take a while for the blacklist to kick in. Think about it, if the guy is not making his monthly install payment it might 30 days+ before they bl the phone.
I'm setting up a VZW SGS3 for a relative but can't activate it on his line until I see him next week, so I've been using my own SIM to set everything up. If I install Google Wallet and then swap SIMs, will that cause any problems?
Thanks
Don't think so.
The checks that are done to verify whether you are eligible for installing the app are based off of the build.props file. And, SIM card doesn't have anything to do with it.
Yeh sim don't have nothing to do with the Google wallet

As of approximately 12:00PM today I cannot get service on my rooted SG3 running the stock rom. After going to the Verizon website, it shows the device as being "non-vzw"...All other devices on the plan work fine. The only major system modification I have made is that I disabled OTA updates.

Is it possible that Verizon is blocking rooted devices from their network?

I went to the Verizon store and got a new SIM card, but I still can't get service for my phone. After some investigation, it appears my ESN/MEID is corrupted (reads B000000). I have read that this can be caused by a bad flash. Does anyone have any experience regarding ESN corruption?
check your imei?
First up if im posting this in the wrong place im sorry before hand.
with that said here my question.
Im going to china (specifically chengdu) with my unlocked t mobile note 2. How can i use google and other blocked services on my device. im gonna use translator,gps and google drive to backup my photos
Btw i may use either tmo recently annoced free roaming there or just buy a sim for my device. depending on which is better option for data heavy user like myself
anyone?
Use a VPN?

Your unlocked phone should work anywhere on the planet, provided you have a connection somewhere nearby.
A new sim is roughly $10 USD from T-Mobile in Abilene Texas, $20 if your a current customer.
I'm not sure why your Google crap is blocked, mate. It sure should work if your running a version of Android Linux. Perhaps something is borked.
I'm no Unlock expert, but if you do choose to buy a new Sim card, I'd definately look into weather you need to Unlock that one too FIRST.

My wife is in China now and seem to access his Google apps just fine from the phone.
She use a local sims.
Yes, if you have google apps already installed on your phone, you don´t need anything else.
It will work normally.
The issue, is only if you don´t have those apps. But that only happens with chinese un root phones.
cheers
so if you buy a unlocked Nexus 5 from google play and have a t-mobile sim and service will you be able to use Google wallet?

You will be able to use Google Wallet with any carrier with the Nexus 5. The issue before was carrier issued phones like the SG3 were sometimes prevented from properly using Google wallet. Verizon is a good example, they wanted to create their own "wallet" like app, so they disabled you from downloading Google Wallet from the Play store.
so you're saying tap and pay would work just fine on a nexus 5 on T-mobile's network?
I thought T-mobile was blocking its use, therefore you had to modify build.prop and/or go thru other monkey-motions (wallet installer, etc) to get it to work. I'm currently on vzw with a GS3 and have to do all the nonsense to get tap and pay to work. I know the latest version will work on any carrier but tap and pay will not (unless you modify things to make it work)

A 100% unlocked phone directly from google will not gain or lose any functionality just because you pop a sim card in it. Tap and pay will work. I use it all the time on my Nexus 4, and it worked fine on T-Mobile back then, works fine on Aio right now.
Check T-Mobile's coverage in your area, if you live in a pretty dense city/outskirt area, their coverage is usually good. If you're in a smaller town or country side, good luck. Talk to people you know, check coverage maps. Look at Net10, Aio Wireless, and Straight Talk as options too. They all run off the AT&T network. You'll probably have better luck going with a carrier that piggybacks off a real nationwide coverage carrier like AT&T.
This answered my question. Getting a N5 and going to be using ATT sim. I figured it would work being a 100% unlocked phone. Just didn't know if they could enable some block by an att Sim being installed. I guess that sounds silly after typing it out. Lol

Running on Tmobile and it works.
I've used tap and play with Google wallet a few times now with no issues on T-Mobile.
Used mine yesterday at McDonald's, usually I'd have the app opens and with my pin entered. Yesterday I just turned my screen on and tapped it and the payment went through. I was it bit surprised that it didn't ask me for my pin but then I found out it was set to a 1-day timeout.
I have tried using tap to pay with eport vending machines and also at McDonalds. Google wallet always says the status of the transaction is unknown and to ask cashier. The vending machine will say, "sorry, unable to authorize," even after entering my pin and tapping again. I've tried two credit cards. Shouldn't google wallet work without rooting the phone?

There's no such thing as a T-Mobile branded Nexus 5, they're all the same. The carriers aren't allowed to modify them in any way.
