Yeah, I even ran the RUU that Football posted, without wiping my Google Wallet data first. Why? Because I did it before the thread was posted.
I followed the directions that were posted here, and my Google Wallet worked fine. Then I rooted, and made this video!

I flashed viperboys de odexed and it messed up my wallet .
Than realized I backed it up via titanium restored data and it was perfect well says not supported device but 10$ is back

I don't think anyone made the claim that unsupported error made your wallet not work. The error everyone is talking about is the "secure element has stopped working" which is a complete different one and it DOES mean that you will NOT be able to use the secure NFC capabilities ever.

The Unsupported Device error only comes up when you have root and has no effect on functionality.

EDIT: While this is awesome and shows people that the unsupported error is nothing, anyone that wants to keep wallet functionality and flashes ROMs should do the following before flashing anything:

Launch Google Wallet
Hit menu button> Settings> Reset Google Wallet

Everyone that said that gwallet work for them and is rooted, when you open your gwallet it doesn't say unsupported device on top? Because if it does then your gwallet is not working.

Just noticed, this makes google wallet unsupported on out devices.

To fix, DENY ROOT PERMS! My stupid self mustve hit allow

Here (and my Reply). There are SEVERAL more, and I could spend all day finding posts like I qouted and linked to above. THAT'S WHY I made the video. Not because of the whole (NOT RESETTING GOOGLE WALLET) Thing, and then it not wanting to work. I just stated that I ran the RUU without resetting google wallet, followed directions, and got it to work just fine. Have I made my point?

All it probably means is that google will not secure problems with unsupported devices. So basically if your rooted and you use google wallet they want none of the liability. You SOL if you loose your phone.

no se error

So I acadently forgot to reset my wallet before wiping my system and data like 5 time and I booted everytime and I forgot to reset it before flashing vipers Rom and I have yet to receive that error. So is everyone that says it get broken have proof on the EVO or are they going on the proff from the nexus?

I recommend MeanROM ICS! He has the latest Google Wallet that doesn't even check for root.

I'd rather push the apk that disables root check and keep my cm10 haha, made the mistake of not backing my Google wallet info and account creation is disabled

i do perfer cmx due to it having jellybean, i'm still new to this so after i flash cmx how would i go about pushing the right apk file??? as always thank you for any help

 

[om4]

Someone has to supply an edited apk from the root of the file system you then over write the file and change the permissions and reboot, of course some one could always provide the full apk and you can uninstall the market version and install the modified. A CMX nightly is supposed to be coming out with a fix soon

well thats some good news, one stop shop for me then i guess, thank you all who have helped, i guess i'm just gonna have to watch for cmx updates now

 

[om4]

The problem is they mentioned the fix like a week ago lol i guess I gotta be more patient.
Edit: you could always flash back to sense enable wallet, back up data for wallet account, reset wallet ( from inside the app, its the only way) and then flash back and just restore app data. I would have done it by now if I wasn't so lazy

hahaha, between lazyness and not knowing, i mean even with all the vids and discussions and staying up way late reading everything i can i still needed help just rooting my phone i'm lucky one of the guys at the store i go to was doing his at the same time and helped me with mine

 

[om4]

Its takes patience which is why I'm surprised I didn't run into any problems. Then again I have a good grasp on most of the theory. I can very easily trouble shoot most problems with out having to read up in anything, the procedures are what vary but I can still point people in the right direction about 85% of the time
Just thought something and I need to confirm

In the Evo 4g lte themes and apps subforum here, there is a thread about wallet. There is a link there for one from modaco website. DL it, move it to system/app and set permissions to rw-r-r and reboot. Doesn't matter what ROM or version you're using. I used it on sense 1.13 and now on AOKP.

[om4]

Haha that's the one I was talking about, I just didn't know how recent it is and right now I'm too lazy to hop on over and check, also nope I knew my idea wouldn't work and just had to see it through lol
