[Q] Superuser on SGSII - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989

Just got my SGSII from T-Mo today as new line so totally new sim and no sd card inserted yet. Has anyone else noticed the superuser app showed up on first start? Is this normal? Am I missing something?

maybe it synced the apps from your old phone when you logged on to your google account?

Google wallet - re-adding your card after reset

to avoid being locked out of the secure element i reset my info in the google wallet app before i wiped my phone
i redownloaded the app and went through the initial set up...this time it gives me an error when i am trying to link my citi card to it...the same card worked earlier so i know it works
is there a waiting period or something between resetting the info and re-adding the card? i reset the app like an hour ago...wiped and re-flashed...maybe i have to wait?
can anyone who has done this please chime in...thanks
Have you already updated the app?... Seems like theres a new update for it could be the reason.. And as far as i know your info should be there as your card its linked to your account and thats in the cloud not in the phone

when i logged in with my google account the info wasnt just there...i had to re-do the entire set up...
also to note...when i selected my gmail account it attempted to log in and it said the password was wrong...i had to manually type the password to get it to log in...i dont think that happened the first time i did it (when the credit card link was successful)...idk if that makes a difference

says app is up to date
have you ever reset it and had to re-add your card?
No, i cant add cards since im outside usa but i got cards registered in the website wallet to be able to buy apps in the store.. So no matter if I wipe my phone the cards are always there, same as your contacts, pictures, everything should be restored.. Try a. Factory reset, backup your stuff and try again

yeah...i have my citi card linked to my gmail account because ive bought apps from the playstore...funny how there isnt a correlation....the app acts separately...when i log in to my gmail there is no card attached in the app but when i log on to google wallet from my browser my citi card is there
i called citi and they put a ticket in and told me to wait 24 hours and try to add the card again...they said that they saw that the first time i ever linked it it was successful and they arent sure why i can't add it again...after 24 hours, if it still doesnt work they want me to call back
I have a ticket open with Citi Bank for the same reasons. I will not let me add the card again. I have wiped the app before and never had a problem. The person I talked with at CitiBank said there was a problem on their end and would not be fixed till Sunday night. They took my info and would call me back. It apparently thinks the card is still active in the system and will not reauthorize it. They have to go in and delete it but it cant happen till Sunday..... I hope so anyways.

ahh ok...it makes sense that the issue is on their end...its not a secure element issue because i reset it before i flashed anything...not that im glad to that you also have the same problem, but im happy to see that my issue isnt isolated
also...you said that you've reset the app before right? in the past after you reset it, you were able to just simply re-add it again? my first link was successful and very quick...just wondering if its a simple process to reset and add
i guess ill have to just wait out the weekend and try it again
if you happen to get it to work please post it here...i will as well
Actually, they told me same thing last Friday (the system will be back until last Sunday)... and the issue was not revolved until now...

tried to add my citi card again this morning...still had an error
not sure if it has anything to do with it, but when I moved to a different ROM i used mybackup pro to restore the apk and data of google wallet. I had all kinds of problems and could not get it to work correctly. I assumed it was due to me restoring the data with the apk.
I uninstalled the app, re-installed just the APK and went through the setup again and have not had any issues....

Verizon - Can't add cards
Wallet just started working today for the first time in months. I upgraded to 4.0.4 manually on May 25th, but for some reason on reboot today, Wallet initialized. I cannot add a prepaid or a Citibank MC - phone gives me an error. Any thoughts?
i totally forgot to wipe the wallet data before rooting/unlocking/flashing/etc and when i loaded a new rom, wallet still worked perfect! it seems sometimes there is no rhyme or reason to wallets behavior.
This is still not working for me. It's been about a month now. I called Citibank twice, first time they told me to call back after the weekend. I called about two weeks later as I didn't have time earlier. That time they claimed the problem is new and they've only known about it for a week, and they're working on it!?! After some clarification they claimed that adding a citibank card was a new problem, not re-adding after a factory reset.
I had a yakjuxw 4.0.2 Gnex, everything worked including google wallet, but changed the rom to takju 4.0.4 when I got pogo pin docks. I am not rooted and have not been rooted. Google wallet asks for Citibank to be added, and it seems to be going through the same process as originally, but at the end it gets stuck, then tells me "unable to add the Citi Card card, please contact your issuing bank or try again Citibank, N.A. contact number 1-800-842-6596".
Well after the calls to Citibank, this is obviously not getting me anywhere, so I'm not sure what to do. I have the backup of my yakjuxw 4.0.2 rom, would putting that back on the phone help? Or is this a google issue and should I be opening a google ticket?
Sorry, I'm totally lost. I didn't even know about the secure element possibly getting blown by a factory reset until after I couldn't add the card back in, and it turned up in some searches. Could that be the problem? Any way to fix that?
Thanks to anyone that can offer any advice.

Since nobody gave you a fix for this here's mine.
I just experienced the same thing after doing a RESET GOOGLE WALLET from the SETTINGS option inside Google Wallet.
I called Citi and they told me that they have to put in a request to have my card unlinked from my (i'm guessing) Google Wallet account.
She said that it will take 24hrs and i should be able to add it back after that.

Were you able to add it back? I am having the same issue after resetting Wallet.

are these duplicate contacts that you're trying to erase? you can try to use contact remover from Play store.
Are Y0u Running A Custom Rom? Is S0 Go Back T0 Stock And See If's Still Happening..

Why is this so HARD or am I stupid???

Alright so i been going nuts trying to figure out why when i sign in a new device it gets full access to all my google account information. I have a few android phone in the the house all using different google address so its fine. But recently purchased a new tablet and both me and my brother signed in which is fine. Installed all the apps that were purchased from the Play Store and this is were the problem is.
When you sign in once the tablet now has access to everything related to that google account and no verification is asked or prompts to login. I don't want my brother reading my emails and he is the same it makes no sense why you enter it once and the device has access to everything. I would like to control what features of my google account a device has access too.
I just want to be able to install purchased apps on the tablet and nothing more, is this possible?
Hahahah. Jebise. Haha. Bravo on the nik.
AFAIK, no is the answer to ur question. Google is said to be working on multiple user accounts. Maybe an app is out on play store that locks ur email app but i havent heard of it.
PS. Pusti brata neka cita email naucice nesto novo. Heheh.

Thanks, it was unintentional way back when i was thinking of an internet alias. It was suppose to be Jebus (Homer say this in one of the episodes) but young foolish me decided to spell it Jebise and it just kinda got stuck and like you once in a while i get these messages. I know what it means now but anyways back to OP.
That is really dump. This is why we never shared accounts, I don't want to purchase the same apps again. I guess Apple has it right with the AppStore because it prompts for a password to install apps and there is no link to email.

Look in settings in the app store I think there is a setting where it will ask you if u want to ask for password before installing any apps. My phone is off so i cant confirm but I believe i did see it almost 100 %.

It's for a PIN but that still does not solve the issue for gmail. I guess we can just uninstall the app.
Sign in, install your apps the remove the account.
Solved.

THIS! and/or titanium backup...
yes but thats kind of annoying.
or you can just go to the google settings in each tab and tell it not to sync email and calander or just disable google sync for all app all together.

yeah but if you go into the app, you can still manually see emails and such even if sync is disabled. it seems I have to remove my account or use TB which is a pain with multiple devices and that not even including updates.
After some thinking I think I will just have to create a new google account just for purchasing apps and nothing else. Sad google has no real control on this.

not if new apps are purchased or updates.
I think the far easier option is to create a generic email with just a CC used to purchase apps.

[Q] Transferring contacts

I just received my Note 2 in the mail and was wondering if anyone knew a way to transfer the contacts from my old phone. Normally I would just import to sim and swap sims and export them. Or I would do it at ATT. However I live an hour from an ATT store and my old phone takes a 3g standard size sim card. Walmart wireless gave me an option to do mobile back up to transfer my contacts however my xperia is blocked from downloading 3rd person apps. So I was wondering if anyone had any tips for transferring contacts. I hope this is an ok place to ask.
Back up to your google account and restore from it .

I always keep contacts backed up with Google, that way after flashing new roms, etc, they come back automatically. You can do it in sync settings on your old phone, then it's the default setting when you first turn on your new phone.

+1 Google account is great. Contacts calendar docs cloud storage gmail,sign into one account and everything is synced. Very simple considering you need an account for the play store.

And all your bookmarks.
Going from Android to Android should be so easy, if you contacts are synced with you Google account. They just magically appear once you add you add your Google account to you new phone.

Android 4.2.2 SIM problem

Hi guys! i'm facing a problem everytime i flash a 4.2.2 ROM..
when i try to import contacts from sim to phone it says that there are no contacts on the sim card (data, everything else working fine..)
i've searched around forums, google, etc.. can't find a solution.
Maybe i have just asked something very stupid or already said somewhere and then i say sorry for that, but i really can't get out from this!

From SIM?! Transfer your contacts to your Gmail and no need to worry anymore. It's much better,as you can lose your phone/SIM along with contacts. But with contacts on your Gmail all you need is just log in to your Gmail from your phone and all contacts are ready to use with any Android phone...
