This worked for me. But there is a problem.
Every time I try and set up a card it says "Request failed"
I removed my name from the screenshot obviously.
I have 2 Credit Cards and 1 Debit card. None of them work and all of them give the same error. I tried removing the cards, and then adding them again. It also asked for a US address before I removed the cards first, (it said we only need this once). I put in a fake address, and it still gave me this exact same error.
I removed them, input the card details again and then this time it doesn't ask for US address information. But it does ask for a ZIP code. I just put in 90210.
Now I am getting this error no matter what I do...
Is there any fix?
This guy seemed to have the same problem but no one ever replied to him:

I really want this to work. This patched .apk installed fine for me and was set up fine but I still get this error.

I need to know the following infor before helping you:
What debit card?
Which country?
Are you sure you're entering the correct card info? Triple check!
Thanks,

I think it may be that Google is making changes to its Google Wallet system atm, they're rolling out a new update soon. Not sure when, but it's probably that. Sorry for the inconvenience!This worked for me. But there is a problem.

The card is through my bank which is wells Fargo and its a visa I live in the U.S...and I am entering the correct information in I tried it like 5 times with the same results??? Why does it say unsupported device on the top when I open Google wallet?

I'm going out on a limb and saying you are rooted. Wallet will say "Unsupported Device" if you have rooted your phone.
I had issues with adding the card until I used the APKs (both older and newer versions) linked to in the OP. I added the card via the website. It appeared after using the APKs and pushing to both directories (and chmod-ing). It did have me fill in information regarding the address the first time I selected the card, but it clearly stated it was a one-time setup (for the address).
what is chmod-ing? and did you just install the google wallet app from this post and filled out the info on the website and everything worked?
Short for CHange MODe (Change mode) which is a unix command that allows the user to tell the system how much it is allowed to access the file.
For all having trouble: have you tried changing your build.prop?
Worked for my S3 and I've reinstalled Wallet 3/4 times this week because of rom problems and having to re-flash..
ro.product.model=Galaxy Nexus
ro.product.brand=samsung
ro.product.name=yakju
ro.product.device=maguro
change it using root browser, reboot then try and add your cards again
P.s. New version is out. Any chance of a patched version?
Cheers!

Yes. Essentially, I did exactly what the OP said.
I downloaded the new APK (linked at the top right after the video). On Windows, I loaded up command prompt:
> adb push C:\location\Wallet.apk /data/app
> adb push C:\location\Wallet.apk /system/app
> adb shell
# chmod 0644 /data/app/Wallet.apk
# chmod 0644 /system/app/Wallet.apk
Done. I checked the owner:group and they are apparently set correctly via the "adb push".
For those wondering, chmod: Wikipedia. TL;DR: Can be used to easily change permissions, and -xr-x--x-- (stated in OP) is 0644 (octal).
Thanks for the post. I've been plugging at this since yesterday but still to no avail.
I rooted my phone successfully (on ICS stock root)
I downloaded the 2 apps ( Wallet & Patch)
I copied the patch to those 2 locations and set the permissions.
Now about the wallet app, am i to install it or place it somewhere like the patch?
I tried installing it, but it failed.
Any help i can get is greatly appreciated
UPDATE:
So i got the wallet app to install fine. But upon selecting my account, the screen continues to display "Adding your account". And eventually after sometime, it displays "unfortunately wallet has stopped" and then exits. I tried creating a new account, but the same thing happens. Any idea? I've read numerous threads but none of them seem to know how to fix this.
Thanks

I sideloaded wallet previously.. however, now when I open up wallet it says I need to update the app because this version no longer supported... and of course it won't let me update via the play store.... When I sideload this r79 version it says app not installed.
Questions:
a) Can I use the listed method to update it safely such that my secure element doesn't get damaged?
b) Anyway to reset my secure element before I do any updates?
I'm on the phandroid ROM.
Thanks!
EDIT:
Problem solved. I sideloaded this: http://www.mediafire.com/?1vqdpd4qf8198zu

I live in Australia, and have an Australian Visa Debit card. I also have a legit US address through HopShopGo. If I rang up my bank and somehow convinced them to add that address to my card, would it then work with Google Wallet? Considering it checks with the card's address?
When using the latest wallet, is it suppose to say "unsupported device" on top?
If you're using a Nexus S, then that usually means you're rooted.
That's not a good idea, and has a very good chance of failing. My FAQ refers to that problem and where you can purchase a special digital card.
did you get this to work at the end ?
