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.

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 have the verizon galaxy nexus and i somehow accidentally uninstalled nfc.. Last month i tried installing one of the hacked google wallet ports for the nexus. I installed it through the clockwork recovery, and made sure to make a backup before doing this. That version of google wallet didnt work right, so i just deleted it with root explorer. When i found out that google wallet can now be installed from the market, i immediately downloaded it to try it out, but every time i tried to open it, it would get an error. So i went to my backup and attempted to copy the old nfc files back to the system folder (i/e: NfcGoogle.apk and com.android.nfc_extras.jar), but that failed to work.
So any ideas on how to fix this and get nfc working again?
Im kinda new to android as a whole, this phone is my first smartphone. Im hoping this is a simple fix and i dont have to to a factory restore or anything. My phone is rooted too if that helps, and I still have the google wallet files i intalled too.
The attachment is a screenshot of what my wireless and networks menu looks like.
Any help is appreciated
"Secure Element Not Responding" ?
If that's the case, sorry, you need a new phone.
You shouldn't have installed any hacked Google Wallet in CWM.
It said that when I had the nfc files from the hacked google wallet..but with the old files it just says "unfortunately, wallet has stopped" ..and I know that now, at the time I just found the easiest guide to follow for installing it though.

Sorry man, you borked NFC.
You might be able to use it again by flashing back to stock images, but you won't be able to use Google Wallet again, that's for sure.
If you can, try to get an exchange
Huh oh well , I guess ill just give up on using nfc..its not too important to me. Its just too bad I won't be able to use a feature of the phone.
@samsuck Maybe I will flash the stock images sometime this weekend and see if that fixes anything..hopefully it will bring back at least some nfc functionality. Oh and I'm pretty sure its too late for me to exchange phones 0.o

He clearly stated what he did, and that he used an old method that caused harm to a lot of phones. That's not it.

Try flashing back to stock using the google image.
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?

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..

I've been having the same issue. I downloaded gapps from the above link, but still no love. I seem to get one of two outcomes depending on the wallet versions I install. I'll either get something like "Setting up Wallet. Can take up to 5 mintues" and then it says my device isn't fully initialized OR it'll get past that and then error when adding the card. Anyone found a fix yet? Tried on CM10, AOKP, JellyBeer etc - no luck.

Same issue here. I think its something to do with our hardware. Also if I use the wallet app in the play store everything works but when trying to add card, request failed. I also noticed that about section says Google secure element version not present. A quick search revealed that the "secure element" may have been soft bricked thus causing the request failed error. Further research also shows that it can be fixed by removing your device from wallet using a PC. Then remove app, reflash. I haven't reflashed yet as I have far too many customizations. Someone try this and let me know
I am in aokp and using above gapp package says unable to start wallet device not connected after 5 mins and using wallet from play store doesn't allow me to add cards.

I was getting the same error. I contacted google wallet support through email and after a lot of back and forth, they got it working. I don't know what they did but there is a fix. Here is the response I got from them;
Hello,
I apologize for the delayed response. There have been some new updates in regard to your issue. These steps should help in resolving the
issue. If you have already taken these steps, please do so again. Can you please reset the device? You can do this by navigating to app
Settings > Reset -OR-- by navigating to the Android system Settings >Apps > Wallet and select ‘Clear data'. Then, reset the app by logging
into wallet.google.com/manage, disable your device then set up your
account again.
If this does not solve the issue, please inform us so we can
troubleshoot further.
Now, I have run through these steps probably 30 times, with no success. I flashed back to stock and still nothing. That tells me that they have finally figured it out. Funny thing is I RMA'd my phone and the day that I got notice that my new device has shipped, they got it working. Anyway, thought I'd post for others who have probably been pulling their hair out trying to get a fix for the app. Help is on the way (probably)
I have consulted Google support about the card adding issues this is the official response.
Hello,
Thanks for your email.*I understand that you are having issues adding cards to Google Wallet mobile application on your device.*I can see here that you're experiencing a known bug which prevents your device from being able to add your cards to the Wallet app, which we are actively working on. If you have not already, I recommend resetting the Wallet app and trying again periodically while we attempt to resolve the issue.*
Thanks,
April

Secondly I responded saying if they can follow up with me should there be any updates on their end she said to keep an eye out on an official wallet update which Google appears to be working on!
Thanks for taking the time to reply. Please look out for version updates as well to the Google Wallet application which may resolve your issue.
If you have any additional questions, please reply to this email and I'll be happy to help.

Now I don't know what's the deal with the gapps included wallet, or the one provided by roman since it won't even initiate but I recommend you guys try the one on play store. That one worked for many people despite having root! Just keep trying every few days! Its good to know that my device isn't hosed.

Well its not AOKP, read google's official response on the message above yours, just need to wait. It appears these issues are affecting lots of Nexus 4 owners as google is aware of it (it is not a rom issue or hardware issue) we just gotta wait until the next wallet update I guess

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.
