It seems as though Google keeps eliminating all the simple holes allowed you to install or update Google Wallet using the play store onto a VZW galaxy nexus.?
?
I got tired of it and modified my build.prop file like d2vzw owners are doing using root explorer to the GSM variant to trick the play store and allow me to install/update it.?
?
1.?????? Made a nandroid backup
2.?????? Reset google wallet from inside the app.? (I had wallet previously sideloaded and installed in /system/app )
3.?????? Cleared the apps cache and data
4.?????? Made a copy of the build.prop file in /system and renamed it to build.prop.bak
5.?????? Using Root explorer I edited the build.prop file in /system to be as follows:
ro.product.name = yakju
ro.product.device = maguro
6.?????? Restarted?and wala Google Wallet found the play store update and was auto-updating to the latest version by itself.
?
I?m rooted running Viscous-Toro-V1 (AOSP), WIFI/BT/GPS fix, FF02/FG02 radios from JRO03O.
?
Now my question since I?m not a genius. Since I?m rooted and ROM?ed and not going to be receiving any OTA update or anything what would be the harm in leaving the modified build.prop file active?? The d2 owners talk about reverting back to the original file but since I?m just switching from a LTE galaxy nexus build.prop to a GSM Galaxy Nexus build.prop I wouldn?t think but don't know if it?d do harm.
