FYI, there was indeed an app update yesterday for Wallet. Go to the Play Store and get it then, duh!

I am also having this problem. Just pulled my 16GB model out of the box, took the OTA, and I am in a "need to update" loop.
Other things I've tried:
- Deleting data for the app
- Uninstalling and reinstalling the update
- Clearing cache from recovery
- Flashing the stock ROM (pre-OTA)
Even after backing off to the out of the box ROM, still in an update loop. Took the OTA again and still looping.
I'm new to the Samsung platform and NFC in general but I'm a bit aprehensive about rooting/flashing another ROM at this point because I don't want to brick the secure element. I would assume I am OK since there is no wallet profile (I can't load the app) but I am not sure if anything gets automatically created the first time you launch the app.
I'm about to call Google Wallet support to see if they can offer any advice.

Wow, Google support is quick to call back.
The Google Wallet support rep told me that the service is actually down for both the SGS3 and EVO LTE users right now. He had no ETA for when it would return.
I then asked him if I'd brick secure if I updated ROMs right now and he gave me the standard line about rooting is unsupported, etc. When I pressed him, he said the secure element should be fine since I have no profile created yet.
I don't think I'm going to trust him on that though

Can someone pm the like to the google wallet apk or the one the galaxy nexus forum is using?
Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda app-developers app

I rooted then got the update loop, then deleted installed the apk via root brower and still a no go

I'm rooted on stock rom and I still get "google wallet is not yet available." Cleared all wallet data, cashe, and it still doesn't work. Not too happy

Backup Google Wallet

So I have Google Wallet and I'm bout to flash my phone... I need to know what the best way to back up and restore Google Wallet data is...
I could definitely be wrong, but i was under the impression that if you restore Wallet data after changing ROMs that it will most likely cause the 'secure element' error and you wont be able to use wallet anymore ever.
I believe the correct thing to do is to open the Wallet app, clear all data from within app. Then after installing your new ROM do a fresh install of Wallet (if it wasnt already included in the GApps you most likely had to flash).
Hopefully others will chime in and correct me if i misspoke
I use Google servers restoring all my apps, when switching to different rom . I've been using google wallet with stock, axiom 2.4, and milestone 2.
I never use Titanium or other method to backup apps.

if I clear my wallet data will it restore my $100 balance after re-installing it in a new ROM?
You won't lose your money. Google Wallet reactivates itself when you reinstall the app and log back in to your Google account. I've done it multiple times already on mine going between different roms and haven't had any problems with my google wallet.

Ahh the beauty of Google services and Android
As stated above, before wiping data and flashing new roms, reset the app from within the Google Wallet settings menu. You should be good to go after that. All your money and card info will transfer over.
make sure you document your user ID so if it doesn't successfully restore your account, google can locate your funds. some people here have lost their balance and sol since they didn't write this number down.

i made some backups. I'll go ahead and do the suggested clear data within the app before flashing
Thanks guys!

This is probably the safest thing to do. However, I don't even reset the app before i flash a new ROM (which I do twice a week), and i have never had a problem with my $$ transferring when i re-install Wallet
Does anyone know how to flash factory image to the phone via fastboot? I need help with this and my other thread about that is dead :<
Anyone wanna be generous with their knowledge?
http://www.wugfresh.com/dev/gnex-root-toolkit/ If you download the factory rom and use this tool it will flash the factory image for you, I have used it to unroot my Nexus and it works great.
This video encouraged me to activate google wallet on my phone. I got $10 for doing so.

I can confirm this. Followed the instructions and the JB 4.1.1 update showed up.

This worked for me too, but it crashed while updating in recovery. My phone is stock, and now when I try the trick again, I can't get the update...
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app
Honestly I think the main thing is clearing the data and checking. People seem to be throwing in other steps that I didn't do, but who knows maybe its a different situation for others.
Plus we're going to start seeing a ton of threads with variations of this "trick".
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
well worked for my galaxy nexus 4.0.4, its now updating to 4.1 thx to op
This worked for me. I have been checking every five minutes for the last couple days, clearing Framework, restarting, using different networks, and as soon as a tried this I received the update. Another thing to note, I checked for the update right before I used this "trick" to make sure it wasn't just a coincidence and I was still receiving the dreaded "Phone up to date" or whatever. So for this to be a coincidence would be a pretty low probability.
Thanks OP.
Even if this didn't do anything, I got the update finally.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
Worked beautifully! I now have Android 4.1.1.
One quick correction: Google Framework is Google Services Framework.
Also, until 13 July 11:28 P.M. Google will only permit you to install using WiFi.
I tried it worked then restored root with voodoo. I am forwarding this info to others. A lot do not know about this.
my other phone is Nokia maemo n900
I did your trick, it working for me. But when it installing I get this error ; E : signature verification failed
I only rooted en unlocked the bootloader..
Thanks

Problem with Google wallet

Ok I have Google wallet and every thing is up the problem is that when I try to scan it nothing comes up. I have nfc enabled so I don't see why it shouldn't work. I have used beam with the n7 and that works fine. Any thoughts?

Are you tapping the phone face up or face down to the nfc terminal?

Face up I have used Google wallet with this phone before but it has just stopped working all of a sudden. I I do flash but I always make sure I reset Google wallet
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium
I'm not sure then. If you've done it before and you always reset Google wallet then it may be a problem with the terminal. Have you tried using your phone at different terminals?

Yes I have I don't understand why it would just stop working

might be a dumb question but, are you using the stock battery?
Did it automatically update itself. My stopped working after the update, I uninstalled update and it started working again.

Yes i have stock battery and I have updated to the newest firmware in hopes of getting it fixed but still nothing.

Curious, did you upgrade to T999UVALH2? It seems my problem started late one night when I installed the OTA. I did do a nandroid beforehand luckily. It took me awhile with nandroid restores and backups to be able to reactivate my Wallet on the latest official OTA. I thought everything was working until I tried to pay at two different stores. The phone did not detect the NFC at the register.
Late last night I restored back again to before I installed UVALH2, got Wallet reactivated, but I have not had the opportunity to try to make payment again. I have read a few posts on either the original Google Wallet install thread, or the OTA thread that a few users can't get Google Wallet working, I have not found a fix. I hope to get to a store today to see if it works from the old stock rom I restored.
Maybe you too are having a problem with UVALH2?
I flashed the OTA update and it broke my NFC as well. Wallet itself works ok, but the NFC doesn't make the payment. And it doesn't detect my NFC tags. I'm still looking for a fix. Maybe a different kernel?
My GW went down after an update from the store. uninstalled the update and got it work but got stuck on activation. any ideas?

I haven't yet tried to pay, but have tested my NFC with another GS III and that works, again, I reverted back to the original stock ROM. I will let you know once I get to a store to see if the payment portion works..

Yeah I went back to original stock and it fixed it but then I went to the new update again and it broke again.

[OFFICIAL]Google Wallet[2013.05.16][WORKING]

Please discuss Wallet in this thread. With official google support, we don't need a variety of GW threads.
Step 1) Just download and install from google play
That's it
Google Wallet forced a reset of my secure element and the GW server stopped authenticating new SPH-L900 devices[2013.05.13]
WARNING: If you have a working google wallet you don't need to upgrade to v16.
UPDATE: Google Wallet stopped working? The xposed framework can help.
1) Download the Google Wallet R96 v16 Here
2) Follow the instructions, here, on using the Xposed framework to allow the R96 wallet apk to install.

Only question is if this is a fluke and oversight on Google's part, soon to be crippled. After all Wallet before was intentionally crippled by Google on the N2...or if it an intentional feature expansion.

Both my batteries came with sealed note 2's. Once you get secure element not responding it's not coming back unless google sends out firmware update to clear it. Which hasn't happened thus far and issue is approaching the year mark. They are quite familiar with it and insist we get our boards replaced

No luck for me on my unrooted MA7. The app says that the set up will take 5 minutes but it never finishes the installation. I cannot install from the market I had to use the apk from this website.

In my case, I had a specific message mentioning "the Secure Element is not responding", or something to that effect. If the app is not installing all the way, I would venture a *guess* that it's NOT due to a bad SE. And this is all happening when sideloading, or are you trying to install as a "normal" apk?
The Google Wallet .apk now installs like a normal app.

The .apk installs as a normal app so this is a first, in the past I could only side load the .apk and then I had to change the permissions now it installs just like a normal .apk. My specific error message is that google wallet failed to install. It would time out after 10 to 15 minutes.

Trying the search button would be a good start.
i read an article last week (can't find it now though) that said google was making wallet available in the entire US, not just certain carriers. i clicked the play store link in the article and for the first time Wallet showed up in my t-mo play store. i clicked it and it said it was not compatible with my phone.....? i backed out, went back to the article to finish reading it, came back to the play store and google Wallet was gone. can't even find it in a search. weird.
i tried the extensive way to get wallet on the phone, changing the build.prop, and nearly bricked my phone. I am just going to wait for the official app.
