Wallet not working on JB

So, after flashing JB and playing with it for some time I downloaded the Google wallet apk. When I wanted to install it, it asked me if I want to replace a system app. But I didn't have it in the app drawer. So I installed the downloaded apk, but it still doesn't show.
Additional info:
*I am not in the US
*I have market enabler

This is a preview build, certain things aren't going to work right.

I was able to set up wallet just fine on my phone w/ jb.

wallet works fine on jellybean...just used it this morning
if you live outside the US you need modaco's patched version.

So i found the problem!
With root uninstaller I could see that the app was "DISABLED"

well thank you soo soo much k.janku1 it was indeed disabled as was Google sound search music recognition and google magazines so im a happy bunny now.

NBC Olympics Live Extra APK

I was wondering if anyone could post the apk file for the NBC Olympics Live Extra app as it is only available to Americans and living in Canada I would love to be able to view the olympics on my phone.

thanks!
incompatible with my SGS2 on tmobile too
but your download link apk is installed and working fine! Stupid NBC
Thanks!

Thanks for the dropbox link worked like a charm on my SGS3, tested a video working great as stated can't test live until olympics start but don't see why live wouldn't work.

But the reviews aren't good. Seems as tho it doesn't 'just' work.

Thanks all! it works great

Guess that means people are reviewing without trying it or maybe they have an incompatible phone I can confirm the AT&T Galaxy S3 works.

On the app's page it states that "additional support for phones and tablets will be added". So I wouldn't be surprised if we see a fully compatable and optimized app before the Olympics.
EDIT: reinstalled from review horizon and now for some weird reason video works, oh well, as long as I can watch the Olympics

Can anyone put up a tablet version? The phone version doesn't rotate for landscape mode.
Thanks.

Hi
Can anyone post the main NBC Olympic apply
Strange but even fir gs2 it says incompatible

Can someone please post the version they updated to today? (7/25) The last one tries to force an update which is still 'not compatible'.

Yes, someone please post. Maybe it would be good for someone to post directions on how someone who has the app can ID and upload the apk for us. I would, but never done it. I think look in /data/app directory

Play store just compatible the app with Nexus 7
uninstall the old one if you sideloaded, then re-download in Play store if you are on Nexus 7
and I dont know how to take the apk out,,,,,sorry

UPDATE: On my S2 (SGH-i777) running CM9 nightly (July 23) build (though I don't think it matters) I was able to get the Google Play Store to install the updated .apk:
Note: I had the previous version of Live Extra installed from the old .apk
1. Go into Google Play store and search for NBC Live Extra. It should take you to the app page that displays "Open" or "Uninstall".
2. Select "Uninstall". Message displays saying it wasn't installed from the Google Play Store, and asks if you want to uninstall anyway. Confirm that you want to uninstall.
3. After uninstall, the app page will show, displaying the blue Install button. Select Install, and it should d/l and install the updated (today) version. It's about 12.75 MB I think.
I'll try to post the updated apk later, if this site will let me post files that large.
One thing I didn't consider until now is that...maybe the app actually is compatible with the S2 i777 now, and I never knew until i uninstalled the old apk, in which case I really didn't figure out anything groundbreaking. I don't think that's the case though b/c Google Play wasn't offering to update my old Live Extra app when it was installed.

NEW! Google Play Store 3.9.16

just released today, get it here! link below...
What's New
The most notable and immediately apparent new feature is the long overdue ability to remove apps you've previously downloaded from the All Apps list. If you like to try a lot of apps, that list is likely very cluttered. With the new Google Play, you can trim it to your heart's content.
Update #1: You can multi-select by long-pressing any app in the list and then tapping more apps, then delete them all in one go (added 2 new screenshots demonstrating it).
Update #2: The new Play Store now keeps track of your location in lists, including My Apps and All Apps, so when you click into an app and back, it drops you into the same spot. I had variable luck with this, and it didn't seem to work in All Apps at first, but I just reproduced it on both the EVO LTE and the Nexus 7. Brilliant.
Update #3: The notification icon that shows up when you have app updates has changed, and notifications are now expandable. I've added more screenshots showing the differences.

It took me a minute to go through my whole list of downloaded apps (I tried out just about everything lol) but finally...now down to a manageable list. Still not exiting back to last place (got to go through the list from the top) but it is ok. Now if we could sort the way we want (download date, alphabetical, paid, free, etc.), I think I'll be set.

hey guys great find!
however I am running MIUI and when i go to install the apk it says that there is already an existing package by the same name with a confliciting signature already installed.. i tried to go to into the system and del / rename the market apk but could not find it in the /system/apps.
does anyone know how i can install this on my phone or am i sol for now?
thanks!

Mine allowed me to directly update it. But Titanium Backup is going to be the easiest way to remove the old version.

I adb pushed the apk to /system/app:
adb push nameofgplay.apk /system/app/nameofgplay.apk
but now my search won't work. I'll press the search button but nothing. Also, the suggested results doesn't pop up, either.

thanks
i downloaded it now...

finally. I just talked to someone working with Google about 2 of these issues myself personally 2 weeks ago.

It may be installed in /data/app on your phone. Or it is visually named something else. When I went searching for vending.apk all I saw was phonesky.apk. I identified it by the PlayStore icon next to it. I'm not sure, but I think devs can name it anything they want with no ill effects on functionality.

HTC WATCH?

After an exhaustive search I have found zero info on the HTC WATCH app. It gives me a connection error every time I attempt to launch it. I confirmed my login info is correct because I can log in with same credentials on my old HTC Amaze and the app fires right up. Can anyone share a working apk? Ideas are welcome. Thank you in advance.

Have you tried to extract the apk from any ROM on xda ? maybe if you replace it by any HTC Watch apk from any ROM it will work, but make sure it's the same base.
I hope I helped.

It is not available where I live (Jordan) so I have no idea. But I am assuming it has to do with your device and HTC account.
Maybe a factory reset, or replacing the HTC Watch apk by extracting it from any ROM and pushing it into the system will help.
Also try to erase HTC Watch data from the app settings then open it again and sign in maybe that will work.

I don't think it works when rooted.
Hide root and try again?

If you are rooted it will work. Mine stock tmobile as well as my wifes it didn't work now that I am now rooted and installed the HTC dev ruu it works fine. My wifes still stock does not work.

I appreciate the link. I downloaded it and my phone prevented it from installing...whether as an update or as a fresh install. Kind of confused by this one. Seems like a very random glitch to have since every single little thing on this phone/rom works perfectly.

It's a system app, you can't just install it like a 3rd party app ... Move it into system/app using Root Explorer or similar, change permissions to rw - r - r and reboot.

Maybe the file has other dependencies then, other files perhaps ... Can't say I know much about it because it, among others, get removed from my ROM at source.

It's a system app that lets you watch movies, the same as the one that comes with stock Google ROMs. You get Thor free with it on the One and you can buy or rent other movies.

I have a couple movies I purchased when I had my HTC Amaze using HTC Watch. I liked the service. They got good movies pretty quick and the pricing was decent. I was able to play them via MHL onto the big screen and it looked great.

Even more strange is that I just tried logging in on a stock HTC One and the same error occurred. I went back to my HTC Amaze and was able to log right in under the same credentials without issue. I even checked (via Amaze) the five device limit on the Watch account and their is only one device registered. (Amaze) I have four empty slots available to register other devices. Crazy.

What Rom are you trying it on. I know on the developer edition it works. Tmobile it doesn't. I am waiting to receive the update from tmobile to see if that fixes it.
