[Q] Google Wallet 1.5-R81-v4 on Canadian Nexus 7

Okay, so I just got my Nexus 7 last week, the same day as the new update for google wallet to come out. So I started by defrosting wallet with titanium backup on stock and it would say it "Is not supported in your country" because I live in Canada. Just to clear things up, it is also a US model, so it can't be the Canadian ones vary. Now I have AOKP installed and I have tried wallet again and will receive the warning "google wallet is not compatible with your carrier or network" Which seems like it is less progress then on the stock rom. I have tried market enabler, using the older modaco patched apk and have still had no luck. I've been researching trying to find an updates apk and still have not had luck. Does anyone have this working yet or know what I could do?

custom kernel, what to know?

Surprisingly I can not find this answer anywhere?
So I'm considering using a custom kernel called Timor kernel. So that I can use an OTG cable and charge my nexus 7. What I need to know is what do I loose? Can I still update from google? Does this oversight the bug fixes google made since 2013?

You can still update from Google but you'd have to flash back to stock completely. Or you can flash the many flashable stock ZIPs that pop up within the first few days.

You mean if I follow the thread I can just grab the "new release's" and if there was a google update it should be included?
Oh also, will this force me to reinstall apps and do all the google authentication as-well?
hmm, just saw this?
"If you are NOT currently running CM 10.1 or USB ROM, you need to first do a factory reset (wipe data partition). This will remove all your apps and custom settings. "
So that is a yes then?

Usbrom never made it past 4.2.2 (cm 10.1). You can always update the apps, but not the core os, eg.. 4.3, 4.3.1....... I run usbrom in multirom, so I have it for when needed, and 4.4 roms when I dont.

[Q] Google Services Not Working

I am using my rooted Nexus 4 and google services are not working, when I try to sign in I get 'Can't establish a reliable connection to the server'. It is not just the rom I am on (currently Omni rom) because I have tried several and it does not work on any of the roms. I also know that it is not a faulty gapps package because I have tried several different packages. I have scoured the web for a solution to the problem but none of the ones I have come across have had any effect. Does anybody have any advice?

Which Gapps are you using?
The one made by PA is highly recommended: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2397942
I would do a full wipe, then reinstall the ROM, then Gapps.

I have already done these things and none of them are effective.

I think our N4 has developed the same issue except it only happens on cellular data--no google maps or other google but great LTE speed and full (except for google) web access. This started about 3 mos ago. You're the first I've come across through my scouring. Rooted, DE-odexed stock. Sorry I can't help.

Temporary Fix?

I have found ( what is probably a temporary) solution; I downgraded to JB and then upgraded back to KK. My gapps are working fine currently but I have a feeling they may break a gain again. However, for now my N4 is working smoothly.

Thanks. Will try.

[HELP] How to give a new life to N7

Hi all, my family owns a Nexus 7 (2012) 16GB WiFi (no 3G) with Android 5.1.1
My mother mostly use it and I'm always disinterested about it, but recently they asked me for help because it became slower. I googled a little and found about the slowness/lags of Lollipop. I tried a wipe cache partition but it still has a long time boot and i'll try a factory reset.
I'm wondering which other ways to try, if downgrade to Stock KitKat or Root and:
1) Lollipop custom rom (which?)
2) KitKat custom rom (which?)
thanks in advance

This ROM was given a new life for my Nexus 7(2012)!

I hope it gives yours as well.

i keep getting stuck at the google sign, this is on a rooted 4.1 stock rom. I tried numerous times. Do I need to be on a different version instead on 4.1?

You need to update your bootloader to 4.23.
I suggest to do so by using fastboot, but keep in mind that there are some non functional / brick risky bootloader images around.

Pure Nexus ftw
Hi!
I'd like to suggest you to give a try for the Pure Nexus ROM (based on 6.0.1. MM, already pre-rooted), which is truly brings that new life to your N7 device, what it deserves... :good:

I agree with you

Hi everybody. I have a nexus 7 wifi 2012 and use it in my car. The only apps i use is:
Google play Music - listening music (obviously...)
CarHome Ultra - Car Dash application
Torque - Always running, mainly for fuel consumption
Tablet Talk - For receiving sms on my tablet while driving
Nothing else except maybe youtube very rarely
Which Roms sould i install? Right now i have XenonHD but it's laggy. Sometime my tablet freeze for many seconds. The only important thing is that i have always these 4 apps running at the same time.
Thank you!

Since nobody can tell me which one i should try i will try both and make my own opinion.

No luck with both roms. The first one give many errors (app has stopped) and the second one pure nexus rom stay stuck on the marshmallow animation. So I reinstalled xenonhd for now.

@mvez73 you should also read the OP when installing a ROM, especially when comming from a non MM-ROM. MM has changed much in permission handling and you need to manually enable some settings to be able to use it without issues.

I speak french and I don't understand everything when it's not as usual. Can you explain me what I need to do? I tried to fix permissions with twrp but no changes. Still have errors with apps stopped. Thank you

You need to go to Settings -> Apps -> Show System Processes
and grant all permission they are requesting to google play store and google play services

Ok. Doing a backup right now (forgot it last time.... -_-) and go for another try with your informations. Thank you!

Looks ok now. Thank you @AndDiSa
Did i missed that fix in the thread? I did a search but i didn't find a solution except fix permission with twrp. Anyway it works now so thank you again!

Fix permissions in recovery only helps when you are restoring e.g. a Titanium Backup and the application ids changed meanwhile.

Google Play Services keeps FC

I couldn't be the only one with this issue. I've tried stock Nougat, rooted and unrooted. I've also tried Substratum latest version, Nougat. No matter what I get a FC by Google Play Services every few minutes. Tried clearing cache and data for Play Services, it seemed to help for some time then the problem came right back. This happened on my 5X which I'm selling now, as well as my 6P. Anybody else having this issue?
Until it is cleared up I'm sticking with 6.0.1.

If you don't have the latest version of Play Services you can try updating to the newest version. Check your installed version against the newest one on APK Mirror.

Getting FC on 6.0.1 now too. Got the appropriate Play Services from APK Mirror but no improvement. Enabled all permissions for it. Only thing I can think of now is installing apps one at a time until I start getting FC

Hello all! I have the same problem on my Nexus 6P brand new...
Play Services stops all time, i cannot download or update a thing from play store, i cannot communicate with google servers (only some times)
Downloads some times gives me error 960...
Keyboard also crashes a lot
I've tried: Flashing different stock roms, flashed pure nexus custom rom... also tried bunch of different gapps packs... made an nandroid backup from another nexus 6p working and put it on mine... etc.. nothing happens... there is also a tricky thing on wifi connections... i have to wait much too long for it recognizes the internet connetion (it connets fine at the network).. tried in 4 different houses, and with 3 different sims...
Anyone has a clue here? im done reading and trying.
Thanks in advance!

Check your rom, under Settings > About Phone, verify your build number for example NBD91K or NBD90X for example. Most custom Rom's link the vendor img in the post somewhere. If your familiar with flashing then you shouldn't have a problem. If not use, skipsoft toolkit to help you root/flash or anything else android.
