[Q] J Butterfly and Google Wallet - HTC Droid DNA

I read somewhere on one of the tech forums that the J Butterfly supports Google Wallet. I don't know how accurate this is, if at all; but if this is true, couldn't this be tweaked to work on the DNA?

If it does, changing the build.prop to mimic it would work. We've had to do that with the Gnex once Google removed mysid support.

The odd thing is, it will install from the Play Store but it doesn't work once you fire up the app. You'd have to change the build.prop to make it work as stated above.

I hope someone drops a working apk for this soon. Coming from a gnex and as crazy as this sounds, I kind of feel weird paying with my actual debit card without it. I used it constantly...
Edit: someone makes a working apk for this, I would gladly make a donation for their efforts.

I've tried changing the build.prop but I didn't use the one from the j butterfly. I got a different msg after I changed the build.prop and the app still wouldn't work

To a similar supported device.
So for Toro (Verizon Gnex), we changed it from mysid to takju.

On the Verizon Samsung Siii (w/ touchwiz), they need to get some NFC/Secure element files off of the Sprint Siii. Then the hacked wallet worked. If the Siii is running AOSP, then the secure element is already enabled.
If the Butterfly has Google wallet working, then maybe some similar nfc/secure element files could be pulled to enable the secure element on our DNA's ....
Or perhaps because the N4 has a similar SOC someone could pull the nfc/secure element files from that ...

We will have to do that too so I guess we have to waiyt for a j butterfly system dump.
I know we will cause even after changing the build.prop and using hacked apk it still said something about secure element.

I've tried the s3 and the nexus and nexus 4 and they worked but I still got a secure element pop-up that closes the app.

Now that there is a system dump of the J Butterfly, or so I read on another post, figured I would bring this thread back to life to see if the system dumped proved worthy for Wallet. I wish I was Unix savvy enough to figure this out on my own, but I'm not... Thanks again everyone.

Yea near the bottom of the write up at this link you can find a system dump I believe.
Check it out if you like.

I hope somebody can start working on this.

I've been checking and haven't found settings yet. I think they do a little more than the Motorola RAZR does. I've gone so far as to enable the hotspot feature (paid) to compare it to the entries with it not activated and the only setting I found did not work - it still checked the entitlement.
You're in the wrong forum... This one is for the international S3 with the device number i9300.
Aftermarket Tethering apps should work fine though if you're rooted. Some custom roms may also include the feature.

Most of the aftermarket apps will work - but if he is like me he would rather be able to use the built in one. I know there is a widget out that will enable the built in one, but I'm not a java programmer and even after decompiling the .apk to a .jar I'm having trouble following it.
Anywho, can somone move this into the correct forum for the Verizon one then please.
Thanks.

NFC on the Droid Razr is only available for in the US as far as I know (source being notes and posts across the web - nothing official from Moto). It does not work natively in Europe (so Motorola Razr is a no-no). Unsure about elsewhere.
maybe its only the software thats missing for it to work! So Some Developer can make a hack/mod for the NFC to work

If you get hold of a recent Google Wallet APK you may be able to see if NFC is recognised on the Razr by running it. You cannot get Wallet on stock ICS in the UK, purely I would imagine because NFC is not 'enabled' in Europe, but I'm sure whether Wallet runs/works or not would give you a point in the right direction...
This thread has a user who is trying that very thing. Sadly he hasn't had much joy..

Official - the 4.4.2 update - discussion thread

There's a leaked Samsung Android 4.4 schedule on the net and it points to January for the S4 and N3. Going by the title at the top of the screenshot/picture it's the international variant S4/N3. US will be even longer. I'm quite pissed about this as these are the flagship devices and should be upgraded MUCH sooner. Thoughts?
http://www.xda-developers.com/andro...xy-s-4-and-note-3-s-iii-and-note-ii-by-april/
Anybody complaining about non nexus devices not getting updates instantly have clearly not been paying attention the last 3 years. January is earlier than I would have predicted.

Not sure how big of a deal KitKat really will be,...
I installed some of the newer files [Email, Calendar, QuickOffice] from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2506623
To get some of the newer available apps, but moving to 4.4 washes away the hard work that Devs [Hashcode, beans, and Hyper] have already invested into 4.3.
I find Root and ROMs much more beneficial than the OS,....for now. De-bloating and customization is key!!
4.4 literally brings no new Ingenuity or function.
give me a break; give me a break; don't break me off a piece of that kit kat rom.

That's not entirely true, it does bring host card emulation to allow NFC devices without a secure element to use Google Wallet.

4.4 also allows you to record what your screen is doing natively. That is actually pretty awesome for helping give instructions on how to install etc.

Still isn't the same as having a bootloader bypass or unlock to truly run aosp.. heck we'd already be on kit kat if we had this that's where i will donate my funds to.

Never buy a locked device expecting aosp. Always assume a locked bootloader will remain that way.

Are you kidding? ART is potentially huge. I'd rather Samsung skip over 4.3 and go straight to 4.4 for this reason.

I really had to think about it when I chose to get the Note 3, but I figure the features on this phone are pretty amazing, and the way its looking is that phones will mostly be locked in the future. ATT is locking theirs, Verizon is locking theirs, Im sure the rest will follow. If two out of the four major US carriers are doing this, there is a good chance that someone will find a way around it. For the time being, we have Hashcode who has found away around the lock for the most part. We just need to get something like Loki or KEXEC working.
My other option was to keep a phone that has outdated resolution, software and hardware..... I had the Note 2 for a year and was ready to move on.

That part was for my Note 2. :cyclops:
We have no one to blame but ourselves. We accept the fact that the US carriers bend us over the barrel and do what they want to us. We accept it everyday by using their services, paying their crazy stupid prices and by accepting their restrictive contracts. Anyone who expects a US Wireless Carrier to offer an update let alone a Samsung update within a reasonable time frame is simply crazy.
The only reason the HTC One is getting it so fast is . . . well they don't have many phones to actually update or are worth updating so they have to keep pushing updates out to stay relevant. Of course the HTC one didn't get 4.2.2 we got stuck with 4.1.2 until we got 4.3. Of course I gave up on my HTC One long ago.

You have to copy the apk file to /system/apps and set permissions. It has to do with being a system file. You could also adb push it if you want.
Does it work on Verizon or is dottat right about the grounded antenna. If he is right then Verizon is really crappy for doing that. Has anyone tried it with earplugs on cause I remember with the og evo the earplug wires were the antenna?

He's right. Nothing but fuzz. Gotta love the scandalous big red.
Big red does that cause theyre trying to make money off of radio,which is free,if you look at sprint they just did a deal with a company that makes a free streaming fm app i forget the name of the app but i think it comes pre installed on newer sprint phones that have the fm chip built into the chip!!!

The fm radio service app comes installed on verizon stock so I would be surprised if the libraries or anything else were removed. They probably did kill the pins and just remove the radio app so no one would try to use it.
But I would help out with what I could for anyone that wanted to look into it.

NuSense6 ROM Question

I have tried once again the latest version is NuSense 6 ROM and have been bothered by one issue. Due to my job, I have to have Device Administrators activated for my email.. The application requires a password or pin. I can not seen to find a n xposed module that successfully works with this ROM that will enforce the Quick unlock feature for pins. (Version 2.1). I know that it is possible with Kit Kat since it works with the stock ROM... I'm on Verizon... Can someone help my or direct me manually through a by pass. This is not your typical Mail Exchange luck requirement. I'm a police officer and the department uses Google for their server and Google's Device Policy App is the enforcer... Thanks.

The sense 6 ones are harder to find. It's much better to get the one you have modified rather than using random versions. On my short to do list this one is near the top because my wife has to deal with a pin on her personal phone because it has exchange active.

Maybe i am just not catching what you need...
I appreciate the response, bu this is just a modified Mail.apk... I do not need that since this is not the app that is requiring the Device to be locked. The app is Gmail. And it is requiring this app to lock the phone... I am not trying to do away with the pin lock but simply make it unlock the device when the correct pin is entered. It's annoying to always have to hit the Enter button afterwards. Any advise is appreciated!!!! :fingers-crossed:
That was available on sense 5 toolbox so I imagine that will also be in sense 6 toolbox. The beta is available right now...
