I seen it in a thread. I hope there is a fix good luck :)

Sent from my GNex {GSM} T-Mobile

there MIGHT be a fix. some of the reps are claiming that they will supposedly send out a update or allow a master reset from there end. The problem is that this is effecting a phone (galaxy nexus) which they are not supposed to support. This means that this could in fact be a fix that wont help us in the slightest.....

Could you elaborate on the latter part of this? I basically backed up my apps with titanium and then installed my new rom and restored the backups.

Unless I missed some random step along the way and broke my nfc chip, I have to think this is related to the prepaid business being down at the moment

the prepaid is shut down, yes. the problem lies in the fact of if you have already once been issued a prepaid card, if you go and remove the card or reset the wallet app then you will be screwed like the rest of us. YES, you can tibu the data and app of wallet and then restore it upon a new rom flashing however if you go to use it after that restore then it may not work at all though looking fine on the phones end. In my personal experience with my first gnex I did that very thing and it will look fine on the phone end, you will go to use it and it wont process the transaction. You reboot the phone and it will remove the card claiming that the your card was removed from your phone by your bank. contact money network for further instructions. it is at this point you are royally screwed and need a new device.

Updated to 1.1-R52v7 via the Market and my Prepaid card is still unavailable -- was hoping this would fix it.

C'mon Google -- I wanna use my phone to pay for stuff!

I called Google, they gave me Money Network's contact number. I called them, asked for a master reset/clear of my account. The rep told me that she would look into it and get back to me. She called me a few hours later and told me that they cannot do a master clear of any account NOW, but a new Google wallet update is on the way; and when that's done then they can go ahead and perform master clears for folks who have the SE error.

This makes it sound as though it's still something that has to be pushed from Money Network's end. Hey dcdevito, call 'em back and try it out!!

My wallet "reset" after my first attempt to use it and a google pre-paid. Then I could not re-add my google pp card. Called Google and they indicated this was a know problem but that it is fixed for most people via an update. Mine should be updated in less than a week.

See email below.

Thank you for contacting Google Wallet. I understand that you are unable to provision your Google Prepaid Card and I apologize for the inconvenience this has caused you.

The Google Prepaid Card is temporarily unavailable and will be available once again soon. If you're still having trouble after a week, feel free to get back to me.

Thank you in advance for your patience and understanding.

Regards,

Ruth The Google Wallet Team

As I recall, the issue at hand in my post was the Secure Element not responding error, not the prepaid card problem. Am I right, dcdevito?

    Google Wallet Prepaid Card Provisioning RE-ENABLED as of 09/03/2012!

    Read me first!
    Please use the APK method below, or attempt to install Google Wallet from the Play Store/Shop - note that the old browser trick appears to not be working since the Google Play branding appeared.

    Please star this Android issue to draw attention to it! Thanks!

    MoDaCo Custom Patched APK Allows easy use with all devices

    This allows easy use and I'm currently using this too!

    See Paul's thread over at MoDaCo for more info: http://www.modaco.com/topic/354635-region-device-root-patched-google-wallet-apk-11-r63-v12/

    Download the patched APK here - DOWNLOAD (ROMraid) - MD5: 34d6d1afe316df8fca9d7aaad02431ce
    This APK must be installed by putting it inside /system/app and NOT by installing it manually.

    Google Play Store (more up to date! recommended!)
    Google Wallet can be found on the Google Play Store here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.apps.walletnfcrel

    chart


    APK method
    Prerequisites
    You need:

    General Instructions
    1. Pull down the notification bar and hit the settings icon next to the date. Then choose "About phone" at the bottom. If "Android version" is NOT listed as "4.0.2", "4.0.3" or "4.0.4", you need to update to a new version. Do that before continuing.

    Now, what needs to happen next depends on where you are:
    I'm not in the US!
    If you're NOT in the US, you'll need to be rooted. Grab Market Enabler from the Android Market and install it.
    Run Market Enabler and set yourself as "US T-Mobile".
    Now follow the US instructions.

    I'm in the US!
    Open the Wallet APK on your phone e.g. using ASTRO/File Expert/Root Explorer/the download manager.
    Now just open Wallet, and it should correctly authorise.

    Troubleshooting
    Help! Google Wallet says "Unsupported Device!"
    This means that you're on a rooted device, and is perfectly normal. Transactions will still work - it's just Google's way of letting you know that you may be less secure than you would be normally, as rooted apps will be able to access Google Wallet internal files. Be vigilant when approving root access!

    Secure Element not responding!
    If you have a Nandroid backup of a version of Wallet that worked, try restoring to that. Otherwise, you're screwed unless you get a new device. The Secure Element in your phone has now locked you out.

    EDIT: research seems to show that Android is not actually enabling NFC-EE, which might be why it can't communicate with the SE. This needs further research.

    To try to avoid this, before flashing a new ROM please, please, PLEASE: open Google Wallet. Open the Wallet Settings menu. Select "Reset Google Wallet" from within the app. THIS IS NOT THE SAME AS SELECTING "CLEAR DATA" FROM WITHIN MANAGE APPS!
    The Google Wallet reset system will disable it's background services, reset the secure element by deleting the Google Wallet applet (which is what you want!), clear the database, ping C2DM that it is now deprovisioning, clear the shared preferences, clear files and cache, and finally shut itself down. Clearing data from Manage Apps will only delete the database and shared preferences: it will not deprovision, disable background services, and most importantly will not remove the Wallet applet from the secure element.


    Insufficient Privileges. Insufficient secure element privileges for this system image (release-keys)
    Err, what? This should only occur if you previously used the ZIP method. If so, you'll need to manually restore the old versions of the files.
    This can be achieved by either restoring a Nandroid backup from before you flashed OR by following instructions in this post.

    I have something not answered here!
    Post in this topic and it'll probably get answered pretty quickly.

    I restored a backup and Wallet isn't working
    Try uninstalling then reinstalling the APK. This should get the SE back in sync with the Wallet status.

    Changelog
    09/05/2012
    APK updated to 1.1-R57v5 from my device for those who still can't get it on the Store. Sorry for the slow update - it's exam season in the UK!

    02/05/2012
    Added note about Google Play Store. I'll update the APK soon, but I recommend using the store - seems that Wallet is even appearing for me in the UK now.

    ICL53F 4.0.2 STANDARD APK works!

    The standard Google APK works on ICL53F / 4.0.2

    Just tested this ; NO FC's - No errors on provisioning card, etc.

    This was pulled off by another user, I MD5'd it to the version I got from a Sprint Nexus S

    MD5: 3729ced6fbee0c8c642fe074e893846f

    http://www.megaupload.com/?d=GQ6YS0KM

    NOTE: I installed this on ICL53F CLEAN install with NO older Wallet ever present. I did NOT wipe or do anything else. So as long as Wallet was NEVER installed on your /system partition or you didn't replaced NFC files this should just work out of the box. If you ever did any of the above get a clean ICL53F installed FIRST (root or no root, doesn't matter) [mine was rooted but a friend got it working no root]

    Wallet PIN Vulnerability

    I am finally able to disclose a major vulnerability I found in Google Wallet. Basically, I am able to uncover your PIN without a single invalid attempt.

    Please see below for our press release, detailed blog posting, demonstration app and source code.

    Feel free to ask me any questions or report any issues.

    The app is also able to give you some useful information about the state of your secure element. This may be helpful for people with SE issues.
