So I saw on DL today that if you wipe your phone, your NFC stops working? Did I read that correctly? I just got my (VZW) nexus yesterday and as soon as I got home I rooted and wiped and ROMed it. I didn't install Google wallet prior to wiping and I still haven't installed it. Did I screw up my NFC?
Thanks
I read that today too after already rooting and throwing on a rom. I had been meaning to set up wallet but hadn't yet. So when I saw that I figured I'd give it a shot and see if it works. It did and I got my free $10 credit.

I wonder this too. It would seem to me that if you never setup wallet in the first place, there's no reason the secure element could be disabled (for lack of a better phrase). But since I have had this phone long, I'm not sure.
But I did root -> wipe -> install AOKP and wallet didn't complain, but after flashing a new kernel, I got an unsupported device warning.

The unsupported device warning shows if you're rooted.

The suggested practice for doing a wipe is to go to the Wallet App- Settings- reset Wallet. Then do your wipe or flash as usual.
Haven't tested it either way. Just passing along useful info.

If you have setup google wallet and then wipe and flash a new rom there is the possibility of killing your secure element. It is suggested to reset wallet within the wallet app before wiping and flashing a new rom.
There is a huge thread in the galaxy apps forum that is usually within the first few pages.
A simple wipe will not affect NFC.

Wiping does not ruin your NFC. What these articles were talking about is wiping and flashing a new ROM without first de-authorizing your Google Wallet app/account. Its a security measure that once the phone has been wiped w/o first de-activating it won't respond to Google Wallet anymore.
Just de-authorize your Google Wallet app before wiping and switching ROMs and you're fine.
I really wish people would understand the difference between NFC, which is the connection standard and radio in your phone to initiate data transfers... and Google Wallet, which is just an app that uses NFC to make mobile payments.

well i guess the question i'm asking is: if i've NEVER set up google wallet in the past and have previously wiped, will google wallet be affected?

That's cool, I haven't set up Google wallet yet and wiped about a dozen times already.

From what I can tell you should be fine, I did a factory reset right after I got my Galaxy Nexus never having set up Wallet at the time and from what i can tell nothing went rotten on me i.e. no errors when I launch Google wallet. Haven't tried to make a payment though which I should do soon apparently there's a 2 dollar a month upkeep fee on the Google prepaid card if you don't touch it for a 30 day period running on a tangent now, cheers!
The FIRST thing I did when I got my new gnex was put AOKP MS6 on it.
I want to try out Google Wallet, but I don't want to attempt to set it up and get an insecure element error and be screwed for life.
Do I need to go 100% takju stock and relock the bootloader and then set it up and then restore AOKP and then set it up again?
Can I do it over AOKP somehow?
Not sure how this secure element root thing works, any ideas on this?
You can install Wallet on AOKP right now from the Play Store and be good to go, I've been doing that since I've had my phone and it works just fine. From what I understand the security element only fails when you don't reset Google Wallet from within the app itself and try restoring the app (like with Titanium Backup) to another ROM. Just don't freak out when Wallet says 'unsupported device' when you use it, it's normal for a rooted phone.

lol, yeah I am back on the Gnex. My girl is still using the white Note you sent
But I got that flashing bug and really wanted a device I could truly tailor as my own, including my custom soft buttons and all the things I love about this phone, so I got back on the gnex.
I used an SGS3 but honestly I didn't find it any better than the galaxy nexus, I think the hype is starting to wear off on those phones.
Good to see you're still rocking the one I sent you, this really is the best phone on the market IMO til maybe the next nexus device.
and for this topic, I installed Wallet and set it up as C0dy suggested and added my credit card and it seems to work fine, just need to try it out now
In a somewhat similar situation. I have a rooted phone that I was running Wallet on, decided to try a new ROM and forgot to reset Wallet before doing my factory reset. If I am reading the responses correctly I should be fine re-getting the app from the Play store and using it again as long as I'm not trying to re-use data from my previous flash, right?
Orange kid did you ever use Google wallet on this nexus because I have got the unsecure element from the get go?

I'm not sure what the verdict on the cause for the secure element error was (read: not how to prevent it), but since I've rooted my phone I've always restored my deviceID from within Titanium Backup when I flash a new rom. I've probably done around 15 clean flashes and even more dirty flashes, and after restoring my deviceID every time, I've yet to run into the Secure Element error.
Just my 2 cents worth.

Well I got the phone from an XDAer so it may have been something that was installed on it from before like that. Must be something internal in the phone that gets tripped, I'm not actually 100% sure what that insecure element thing even means.

Secure element issues
I have been experiencing secure element issues. I just sent my LTE Nexus to Samsung and they would not fix it. The NFC chip can't be fixed, the entire board would have to be replaced, which they are unwilling to do. Samsung is blaming Google. Tech pointed out that Wallet writes to secure element, so Google needs to create code to restore NFC to default state. I'm complaining to Google about this, because it is looking like the issue will crop up when ISIS payment system rolls out, so issue goes beyond Wallet.
Tomorrow I am receiving a CLNR from Verizon, which scares me. I see too many posts about people returning their phones 4+ times before they get a good one. May stick with my no NFC having GNex instead of switching.
i don't have the Secure Element error, but instead the Unsupported Device error.
i used to have Google Wallet working on the Vicious ROM. but then i was in the process of selling the Galaxy Nexus, so i clean wiped it and flashed a new ROM.
i didn't realize until after i did that, i should have reset my Google Wallet settings. so now i'm trying to install it again to reset it, but it's not letting me run it. is it safe to say that it's reset and that i'll be able to use Google Wallet on my Galaxy S3 (once i root it)?
i'm not sure if this is the right place to be asking this, but here goes.
so i had a modified version of Google Wallet installed on my rooted Galaxy Nexus. well, i then started to prep the phone to be sold, so i wiped the phone, and flashed a ROM. not realizing until after that i guess there's some weird authentication things with Google Wallet? or something?
well anyways, i didn't make a nandroid backup because my primary device is my (non-rooted) Galaxy S3.and so my Galaxy Nexus was more like a music and games player with a working Google Wallet.
i haven't tried this yet, but would i be able to install Google Wallet again on the phone, then unlink/reset it, and then wipe the phone?

google wallet is unique to the device b/c of the 'secure element'. If you didn't break the secure element, then a re-install of wallet should be fine.
You may have just encountered the secure element error where you didn't restore Google Wallet completely before you wiped your device. If that really is the case, you won't be able to use Google Wallet on it ever again unless somebody devises a fix for it.
I tried to install Google wallet to the phone on the same ROM and different ROMS.
I'm getting the your device isn't supported error now. I've tried 2 different APK files, and I can't download it from Play store.
Any suggestions?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using xda app-developers app
Device isn't supported just means that you are rooted - doesn't effect functionality...
Correct unsupported device is normal, that means your phone is rooted and money market is not responsible for any loss of money because they feel that a rooted device is less secure. The secure element issue is when your device is broken and the wallet will never work again. At this point your perfectly fine and just like everyone else. If you flash stock and lock the bootloader your unsupported device message should go away.

the only thing that weirds me out though, is that i had Google Wallet working on it while rooted, but now it's not working.
before, when it was working, that dialog would come up, but then still let me use the app. now it's just auto closing after the alert dialog.
guess i shouldn't worry about it too much since i'm trying to sell it.
Please see wallet.google.com
You can remove all devices, and as soon as the device opens the Google Wallet app, it blows itself up!
Well, since we haven't seen a full restore available for MA7 I'm going to do what I did with MA5 and make one clicks for all but the modem.
If the situation changes I'll repost with new one clicks.

Please mention this in your instructions, it's very, very important for Google Wallet users:
Before wiping your current ROM, you MUST reset your Google Wallet app by going into Settings --> Reset Google Wallet in the Wallet app, or you will permanently lock out your secure element and will never be able to use Google Wallet again - you will have to get a new phone!
This is because your Google Wallet app is married to the secure element with a unique crypto key when you first set up Google Wallet on your phone and if you wipe your phone without first resetting Google Wallet, that key will be lost forever, rendering the secure element useless.
Performing a Google Wallet reset will unmarry the app from the secure element and reset it to its original state so that it can accept a new Google Wallet installation when you wipe your phone and then restore it to stock.

No worries. I had to get another Note 2 when this happened to me... thankfully had phone insurance.
That truly happens on the Note2? I remember others saying it happens on other phones but I could never brick my secure element as I tried about a hundred times it seemed. Chalked up as one of those rumors.

It doesn't matter what phone you use, that's just how Google Wallet and the secure element work together. Google "Secure element has stopped responding" and you'll see how many people have bricked their secure element because they didn't know this.
This only happens in a very specific situation - when you go to a different ROM or do a factory reset without resetting Wallet first, in which case the secure element remains forever married to a Wallet installation that's lost.

I remember when google wallet 1st came out it store info to the secure element and MANY Evo LTE users bricked the element when the Evo 1st came out then google pulled the wallet apk for afew weeks and switched where the info is now stored to avoid this issue...ive flashed away plenty on my evo lte and this now without reseting wallet......its an urban myth now.
Edit: Heres thelink its stored on the cloud and not the secure element

Except that's not true because many people have done both of those many times and it still worked fine. I have myself.
And, people have lost their secure element when they did reset wallet, and people have lost it even when they hadn't flashed anything or even so much as rebooted. Just worked one day and not the next.
So we don't know what kills them yet.

I've never had a single issue on either my gs3 or my gn2 flashing or upgrading firmware and being able to use google wallet. Even with the gn2 and Wallet not being "officially" supported. I have a hard time believing any of this is true...it certainly hasn't been in my case. I'll toss my Nexus 7 in there as well. Flashed plenty roms and upgraded firmware...no issues whatsoever.

So if within the Wallet app you goto "Settings" then "About" does it say "Tap and pay" "NfcPaymentSetupFailure: 11"?
If so, there are a number of people having that issue including me. I've filed tickets with Google but haven't gotten any solutions yet.
Wallet used to work for my device however a couple months back it stopped and the NFC part never started working again.
It says UNAVAILABLE (NFCPAYMENTSETUPFAILURE:1)
Mine says the same message. It means youre locked out from the secure element. You will never have tap and pay on that phone.
The only solution is to bring it to sprint, show them the problem, and tell them your secure element is broken.

Is this confirmed? Because Google Wallet support has stated nothing of this sort to me is my correspondence with them. Granted, I they did not ask about the info on the "About" screen, but I've been back and forth with them quite a bit and it's never come up.
Strange, because Wallet worked just prior to the last official update for me. No other changes -- did not change ROM, recovery, or anything else.

There's nothing quite like Google Wallet, but there a number of other mobile payment apps available -- Level Up, Wallet (Pay with Square), Paypal mobile app -- each had a relatively small install base as far as merchants go. Most merchants that use these services seem to be smaller cafés, etc.

Unfortunately, I just tried you steps again (not reinstalling) with the same results. Oh well.
I think my next step would be to wipe the phone and start from scratch to see if that will work...
Like I stated code 1 is the secured element locking you out. The damn thing id buggy and some people have had it lock them for no reason.
Mine happened because I factory reset before ckearing the data from wallet.

I got this with the new update. I reset the app, rolled back updates, set it up and then upgraded and am fine.
Ha! I never had an issue setting it up after the new change. Everything went through fine, however using it yesterday my transaction failed. Reason it said it failed was because tap n pay wasn't set up nor was there a card selected. Stupid thing is the app shows tap n pay is set up n I do have a card selected. Never had an issue on the old wallet..

I was worried, tap-n-pay wouldn't set up earlier, couldn't use wallet at a store wh n it had worked previously on this install of this rom. (synergy) After reading this thread, I checked and I got the code 11 thing, thought maybe I was f*cked with the secure element. But a quick clear data/cache and a force stop, restart the app, all seems fine. Says I'm ready to tap-n-pay. Cool.

I am going to attempt a fix file I used a while back I think for S3 I had but it is labelled JBWALLETFIX so it might work or help. I shall let yall know what comes of this. It worked for a long while and then a few days ago when I did the 4.3 update....I get this error. I called and escalated a ticket with Google but doubt they care. More to come. If the zip works I will post it.
Success....Apply this....Fixed!
Apply this zip in recovery and it fixes the problem. I think perhaps there may be some weird issue with updates they did recently and being rooted because the lady asked me "are you rooted?" and I lied and said NO I think some apps do look at root but wtf is with the OS all of a sudden breaking if I give it SU access? I did Unix admin and that should not occur at all. Simply gives a person access to system files. Sure if you delete something essential...you bork it. Anyhow here is the file
