Okay for the last two days I haven't been able to connect to google wallet or add a google card. I rooted my phone and I see the unsupported devices showing. Tried to add and failed stuck on initializing . I called google wallet they told me there is an issue on there end and it will be fixed wait a couple of days. So today there was an update. I did the update tried again. Didn't work. So I cleared the data and reset the setting in google wallet. Same issue. Then I thought maybe if I unroot and try it maybe it will work. Well in the #SU app u can hide the root so the phone thinks its unrooted. Under enable root . Uncheck it to disable it. Reset and cleared data google wallet. Tried it and it works. Well I'm probably late about this. But I figured I let I guys know maybe it will help someone. Thanks for reading. If it did then hit that thanks. Peace.

Thanks! This is exactly what I needed.
PS thanks for also describing how to do the temporary unroot by disabling SuperSU in the settings. I was looking everywhere in the app for something that said temp unroot, didn't realize it was as simple as unticking the Enable Superuser box.
Still didnt work for me. It stays stuck on Activation..

I tried all the steps ,but I don't know if it worked. I unrooted, reset. When I select wallet it tells me my password has changed so I have to re-enter password. Then I get an error adding pre-paid google card.( but it no longer says "un-supported device). I called the money network and they said they were having a problem with EVO let's and that they were working on it. I think I'm going to exchange this one anyway.

they have the evo activation service shut down to try and fix the problems we are having.. so no matter what until they turn them back on you cant activate your account.
The way I did this is if your rooted disable Su. In the Su app. Then go into google wallet reset app in settings. Exit. Then go to applications in settings then go to all on right. Find wallet. Then clear data. Back over to wallet activate again. Setup password. Try to activate prepaid card again. Make sure you take the update in the play store if you didn't before doing any of this. Let me know.

I doubt that this is a possible fix. I unrooted and am still stuck initializing. After installing the Wallet update last night I'm still stuck. I called g wallet customer service again and they said that the update will fix it for some, but they are not finished with all of the maintenence on their servers. Until then (they will email me), G wallet will still be broken for some. I think that this possible fix is just a coincidence.
Thanks for the heads up though.

Query: does this problem only affect those who rooted before using Google Wallet on the stock ROM?
I want to root but I am afraid of losing this functionality. My Wallet works on my stock ROM un-rooted, obviously.
It has nothing to do with being rooted or not... They have turned off the service for new phones to fix the problems.. so if youarent already active.. your probablyout.of luck.

My account is currently active, however if I clear the Wallet settings in order to root (sticky PSA thread), and then after rooting go back into my account, would it work?

once google wallet has their services back up and running yes.. But right this min no you will get a error trying to add your card.
This is a fix for google wallet to let you login and has been confirmed it will let you buy things after doing it. I am making a new thread so it doesnt get buried in the Google wallet stuck at initializing your device thread. Be sure to thank jkt97401 for finding it and DZLRULZ for doing it and confirming he could buy things again in the thread posted below. I also did it to confirm it works to allow login again.
THIS WILL NOT FIX SECURE ELEMENT BRICKS!
EDIT: this fix has been blocked from my understanding in order to continue to use wallet you have to leave the change and not revert back to the original build prop however you are welcome to try out reverting it.

jkt97401 said:
I found a workarround, this worked for me and hope it helps others!
Go into build.prop and change these values:
ro.product.model=
ro.product.device=
to both equal this: GT-I9300
This makes your phone look like the Sprint galaxy nexus.
Reboot your phone and try to open wallet!
You may have to clear google wallet settings, I had to uninstall wallet and reinstall it after the build.prop change.
Hit the thanks button if this helped!
-------------- PS --------------
The reason I tried this is because I heard Google temporarily blocked the HTC EVO 4G LTE from accessing Google Wallet. I don't know the exact reason why, but this seems to work at least for now.

DUDES! It totally worked. I will be trying a transaction in a few minutes and reporting back. I was sick over this, worried about secure element. I got stuck at 99% resetting the app and eventually had to reboot.
I did what you suggested and it activated, and my $100.21 was still in the prepaid card no problem. Here's EXACTLY what I did to keep out of the unsupported device also:
EDIT: REQUIRES ROOT ACCESS (but not HTC UNLOCK, which I do not have)
-Enable SuperSU
-Use ES File Explorer for root explorer (Settings->Root Explorer, give Superuser permission when asked) -> Mount File System (writable)
-Edit build.prop in /system folder as described above (make a backup also so you can revert after activation!)
-Disable root explorer in ES File Explorer
-Disable SuperSU in SuperSU settings
-Clear data for Wallet in Settings->Apps
-Reboot
-Open Wallet, log in
-Add prepaid card
-Close Wallet
-Go to Android Settings->Apps->Downloaded->Wallet and force stop (hoping to keep it from knowing about the next step which is enable SuperSU to revert build.prop and keep away unsupported device message.)
-Enable SuperSU
-ES File Explorer -> Root Explorer -> Mount System
-In /system folder replace build.prop with the backup I made (or just undo the changes manually if you like.)
-Disable Root Explorer
-Disable SuperSU
-Reboot
-Open Wallet and verify operation
-Profit!
Sorry if this is jumbled, have to get to work but excited that it is fixed and hopefully by reverting build.prop no strange behavior will result!
Thanks again jkt97401!

Not really unsupported will be there ifyou grant access or not, it will still work tho that's a diferent thing, any developers thing this will mess up and try to changed device to evo? Like for example if Google wallet will recognize the build.prop was changed? I mean there is a reason why they blocked the evo

Also I was some what scared to do this too but I'm not going to wait forever for them to fix this problem. Since it could take as long of a wait as we may need a OTA. As long as you do what's posted it will work if you do something diff well ymmv... The secure element may be somewhat fickle however I feel ours is not as fickle as the other devices. As I have seen people say they didn't clear it ran ruu and rooted and it still worked...

Negative. After bricking my last evo 4g lte's nfc, i'm being very cautious with anything pertaining to this.
I did call google wallet shortly after posting and they confirmed that it's still not fixed for the evo lte. While this work around may work, it's troubling that google doesn't officially whitelist the device again. There has to be a reason for this. I prefer to wait until it's cleared through official channels.

Hey guys i just wanted to let everyone (or anyone that looks here that didnt know already) know that if you get the new OTA or do what i did and get a rom with it (I just flashed Flex's stock with gooodies rom with the new OTA) it fixes Google Wallet if you had bricked it like i did.
So if you forgot to clear google wallet settings before flashing a rom and you bricked flashing a rom with the new ota it restores wallet and it works fine.
I did have to do a reboot for the prepaid card to work and put my 10$ in but its all good again :laugh:
And if im posting this and its old news then my bad, i did a search and i couldnt find anything on this, and if this is old news then can a mod please delete?
Thanks :good:
Thanks for sharing. So you you had secure element failed and don't anymore after updating to a ROM with 1.22 base? Did you update the hboot, too, or just ROM (I personally never update hboots) ?
Sent from my EVO using xda premium
No way i was already rooted running Flex's ROM so no way i would have updated my hboot i just flashed a rom with the OTA on it
and yeah before hand i had the secure element bricked and after the new ota google wallet works which is fantastic
So maybe we won't have to clear it every time we flash now? That's the one thing that has kept me from really using Wallet . I'm afraid I'm going to forget and brick the NFC. I set it up and just reset it the next day.
Sent from my EVO using xda premium
that im not sure on ...im looking at this as more of a second chance for me rather than a complete work around...i just have to start remembering to clear settings
I had bricked mine before with the secure element not responding. I went back to stock and updated through OTA. And my wallet is still saing secure element not responding. Any ideas to this? Thanks
I accepted the OTA, and because I was S-OFF I flashed TWRP and then SU via TWRP. I then setup Google Wallet. In my haste to flash the new MEANRom, I forgot to clear Google Wallet settings, but luckily it still works. It seems to me that the OTA might have solved the secure element problem... Don't take my word on that!

I hope this thread gets filled with good news (OP it was the "Secure element not responding" error right? Not the other Wallet errors?) and I hope I am wrong, but like stated in my thread, from all the research I have done there is no fix once it gets corrupted. It has to do with securing financial information and I doubt Google would give out the info as to how to fix it to anyone other than themselves (and even they don't help with this issue).
Anyway this is definitely a thread to keep an eye on and if it gets confirmed I will edit my post with a link to this

i believe when you open it and it says this device is not supported or the secure element failed, and as for moving there are mods to switch the internal and external storage but id recommend just moving the files with a file explorer on the phone to the internal

Yeah, it's not a guarantee that it will brick every time you don't clear data. The only thing we know for sure is that clearing it evades the problem if it would have happened. As hard as I searched for what causes it, I came up empty. No one seems to know what causes it (it has to be something present in non-HTC devices as well, so probably Android related) that triggers it. Your best bet is to just wipe data every time.
We're supposed to be getting a software update correct?
If I try to search for an update I see the following screen:

From what I've seen so far, they are rolling out the software update only in test markets: Salt Lake City, UT and Austin, TX. You may not be able to get the OTA until it is in wide release.
What's interesting is there is a mention today that they pulled the ISIS mention from the update. At least the version remained the same in the two press releases (2.17.605.2 710RD)

Back story:
I was able to get in before they removed unlocking so I'm actually running Hasoon2000's QX senseless rom and have TWRP installed.
I'm sitting here at work and heard my phone make a noise but wasn't paying attention. Then 10 minutes later it's in the process of rebooting itself. It tossed itself into recovery and looking at the log it tried and failed to install the ota update. I'm a little concerned that it just up and tried to install on it's own without asking (or if it did it had a timer). But either way since i'm not running stock it failed.
I'm in Idaho which no one gives a crap about, so i'd say it's global now!

Well like i said i heard it make a noise, but it was the sound i have set for calendar reminders so i ignored it. I'm assuming that was a prompt, and it probably waited 10 minutes for a response before going for default behavior. I think the most worrying part is default behavior in this case is to auto install.
But since I'm running a custom rom it failed so no harm done... to me at least!!!!

I happened to notice mine was downloading. After it downloaded there was a pop-up warning me it was about to update. There was a 3 minute countdown and a dialog to proceed immediately or defer. I selected defer and it let me set the date and time. Set it for next week so I could see how this potential new root exploit works out.

I don't expect it to roll out everywhere at once but its annoying that it doesn't even show the "No New Update" message like it used to do for me. Makes me think something is wrong.

I happened to notice mine was downloading. After it downloaded there was a pop-up warning me it was about to update. There was a 3 minute countdown and a dialog to proceed immediately or defer. I selected defer and it let me set the date and time. Set it for next week so I could see how this potential new root exploit works out.

The defer is doing nothing. While Carpenter was giving up the 3 runs to Scutaro my phone went ahead and did the upgrade. Bastards.

Yeah, I see the same thing. It goes from checking to the original options. Have you disabled any system apps?

Mine popped again. I went and killed HTCDM and it hadn't bugged me yet. That might be the process to kill to stop the auto update but I can't say for sure until tomorrow.

Yep killing HTCDM did the trick, my phone is no longer trying to update. I also confirmed from some other posts that HTCDM is the process that checks for updates. So kill it or freeze it if the defer option isn't working (which it doesn't seem to work for anyone) or you're running a custom rom.

Yea I have a bunch of system apps disabled, but nothing that I would expect to cause an issue. I don't have root I disabled them through the apps menu in settings and I doubt they would let you disable a system app that would break updates.

I updated SuperSU and now when I open the web app I get a root request "MKSH ip x.x.xx.x is requesting root permission" can anyone help me? Should I grant or not?

Exact issue for me too.
I'm a bit busy at the moment to do the in depth searches I normally carry out when finding an answer!
(this was the first result I had time to find)

same here .. but I'm using an HTC Sensation with custom ROM.
Same here as well, but I am using an evo lte running meanrom.
Me too, One S (S3) with Custom ROM... Really annonying, cause everytime it requests Root permissions my screen goes on
Me too - it started with banking software, since that was the first one I opened after update, so it scared me!
I have an HTC One S and I get that popup also, it seems to be triggered by wifi for me, turn wifi off then back on and it triggers the request. I'm not sure if I shoud allow it or not.
Wow seems to be something new then. I denied it because I have never seen it before I searched and found some stuff about a shell. I dont know much about this but it seems we might find the answer here. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1538053 Im working so I cannot do much searching but google directed me to pg 97 of this thread, if some1 has some time to scan through and finds it let us know.

Discussion of that message starts with this post in that thread. I just updated to 0.97 and haven't seen it yet.
Chainfire, the developer for SuperSU, seems to think it's HTC specific and not malware, but hasn't identified the source as of now. He does explain a change in 0.97 that might be causing it to show now when it didn't before in this post.

Just like everyone else...I got it after updating SuperSU on HTC ONE X and first time using wifi. Denied the privileges...did not know what it was.
Same here. I got it after updating SU and reconnecting to my WiFi
May I ask if anyone of you is using adblocking apps such as AdAway? I'm getting this as well on my One S (S4) and it started with an AdAway definitions update, so I'm wondering.

Is there a solution for this? Or what this message is even? Is it safe to grant permission through SU?

Trouble in the Air?
This MKSH (Shell) I think is messing around with internet and required connections/downloads from internet, I denied it and when there is a need for download say any game it interferes (here it keeps on wiritng all that uneding list of permission being denied!) Quite fisshy I guess, so please if anyone has an idea what the hell this newly introduced shell does do reply and inform what to do about it!
Thank you
No, it’s not mksh that is “accessing” the network. Full answer in this thread.
