I installed asphalt 5 and it gave me a message saying I had to download extra data. It would never get past that. I got rom manager and ran the fix permissions thing and the that and nova both worked. If anyone was having the same problem I would recommend giving it a go.

Anybody have one besides for development? The Google representative here at Best Buy is arguing that to him, he sees to reason to root a nexus phone because its already AOSP. I watched the new XDA video on it and showed him but he feels he isn't missing anything worth it.

Rooting will allow you to install some apps that require root ie. TitaniumBackup.

How else would someone use rooted apps?
Titanium backup, adaway, even cerburus offers better protection on rooted devices.
Maybe you want to do a nandroid backup, flash ROMs, kernels, tweaks etc

I tried that a while ago. He said "android already does that, when I logged in it downloaded all my apps" i tried explaining that he had to download them and with titanium backup it saves your settings and everything and you don't need data, but he didn't listen saying he was on WiFi and something else. And he says he's okay with the virus protection 4.2 offers.
I just figured out why its useless talking to him though. He's a iSheep. He only has a nexus 7 and 4 because Google gave them to him.

Well if someone is completely against rooting and doesn't see any benefit in it, then he will be happy even with a iPhone.
No need to argue about the missed possibilities

Titanium, file access, being able to remove system apps, there are many reasons to root besides developing..

I'm tired of flashing ROMs, after a G1, Vibrant, Galaxy Tab and GS2. I'm currently happy enough with proper unskinned, pure Android on my N7 & N4. I don't feel compelled to root either one. It sounds like some of you think that makes me a bad person! LOL
My old Galaxy Tab is on CM9, used by my 7 y.o. son. The GS2 is on CM10, used by my 12 y.o. daughter. I consider both more imperfect combinations than 4.2 on my Nexxi. Great, best options for their hardware, but the Nexxi are superior. My daughter wants an N4 when they're back in stock. I now want a N10 to complete the trifecta.

yah its user preference. Some people get tired of flashing ROMs, like myself and in the end of the day I just want phone to work reliably. BUT i am rooted!
I love the aspect of custom kernels most. You can improve performance, battery life or even add features to the device.
Don't bother the guy into rooting. I've rooted since my Og moto droid. Back then you wanted more performance or features that didn't come stock. Aosp has hit a point where I don't need to root anymore. So many Roms out there that claim its been optimized, zipalinged , faster this and that battery this and that. It always ended up buggier than **** days later. Rooting takes time, research, more time.
4.2 has everything I need. I don't need ti because I don't need to wipe my phone. There are no preinstalled apps I need to get rid of. Tethering is included.
Android is about choice. Please don't label someone an isheep because they are happy with what they have.
Root is 1 file. Why not?
Modify clock speed
Modify the screen colors(Voodoo i think)
Performance gains(ext4, jit, etc)
Fix Bugs in stock Rom
Can fix compatibility with apps
Remove Bloatware if exists
Access to Root apps like ChainFire 3D
Titanium backup
Don't need anymore reason
Hey everybody ! I'm a regular user of Google wallet and since the android update to 4.3 I'm unable to utilize the apk.
I've tried with stock rooted and with custom rom but to no luck
I'm trying at a McDonald's location that I know works based on the fact that I've used it many times in the past. At least prior to the update.
Had anyone been able to use Google wallet since the 4.3 update?
Edit: I'm using an ota based rom
Interesting. I had no issue setting it up or enabling tap-to-pay, but I haven't actually tested it yet. I'm sure the custom ROM wouldn't work if it was anything besides Sense based, but I'm not 100 on Sense based custom ROMs. I'll test it out this evening when I swing by PetCo.
I haven't had any problems. Tested yesterday

What rom are you using please?
Have the same problem as OP. Tried it Stock rooted and BadBoy which im currently running. Both no go. Setup was fine, but when i try paying with it, nothing happens. And yes, my NFC was on and had a stable LTE connection.
No issues for me. I even got used as a training experience for a new PetCo employee. Apparently they'd been waiting on me coming back in so they could show them how to handle NFC payments. I'm not sure how I feel about being that well known at PetCo for using Google Wallet.
Tried Google Wallet at CVS Pharmacy and Best Buy both times the transaction was declined even though I wasn't close to my max credit line or on my debit card.
I've had issues since the update to the Google Wallet app. Not sure it's 4.3 the problem. But I'm getting a transaction declined when I use it. But I know it has nothing to do with my limit being reached because I always endup paying with the actual card.
Sent from my HTCONE using Tapatalk 4
@rougegoat & @Deathsnuggle was your use while on the new 4.3 rom or something else?
My experience is nothing happens. No vibration (which normally happens when you place phone on nfc placard to pay)
no denied (because it doesn't connect or communicate)
and after trying to communicate with my wife's phone (HTC evo 4g lte) which normally at least vibrates to acknowledge something's attempting to communicate, nothing happens there either (which used to before the update)
And just to clarify I did the radio update, firmware update, recovery update, then rom (android 4.3 w/sense 5)

Ok I wanted to post that I found out what was causing MY problem... I was using exposed framework. I'm NOT SAYING that it breaks nfc but some combination I had going was causing my issue.
I installed my rom again without exposed and it works again.

I had a feeling it was related to this, but I love toolbox too much. What module were you using?
Well interestingly enough, the nfc function works with the android beam but my Google wallet apk isn't functioning.
Looks like back to the drawing board.

Yea I full wiped the other day and didn't install anything EXCEPT Google Wallet and couldn't get it to work. Wallet says tap and pay is setup correctly, but can never authorize a transaction even though my phone beeps and vibrates when it makes a connection with our vending machine. I'm on Badboyz, which is pretty close to stock.

Anyone else having problems with the play store tonight? I did DG's root earlier, but I think it's unrelated because I didn't notice it until tonight.
I've tried clearing cache and data, in the play store and google services. I've even tried removing and adding my google account with mutliple reboots.
It fixed my original error [RPC:S-5:AEC-0], and now I'm just getting a server error (500).
Anyone else notice this? I want to know if it's google and I need to be patient, or if it's just me and I need to keep troubleshooting.
Thanks!

I was 10 seconds from starting a thread myself, getting the 500 error myself as well. I tried all of the following:
1. Go to settings -> Applications -> Manage -> All -> Market
2. Press the Force Close button, press OK to acknowledge this is what you want to do.
3. Press Clear Cache, press OK if it asks you to confirm your actions
4. Exit the screen
5. Go to settings -> Accounts and Sync
6. Click your Google account
7. Press Remove at the top right corner. Press OK to confirm this is what you want to do.
8. Exit the screen
9. Launch Market
10. The Market app will ask you for an account. Put your Google information back in.
11. Once you put the account info in, you'll get the disclaimer. Press OK.
12. Now try to download an app.
But you said you tested it on a non-rooted phone and it gets the same error at least puts me at ease a little. Are you on a custom FW or Stock?
I am on the new root. I have an s4 one another line and it is not rooted at all and it is getting the 500 error

I'm convinced it's on Google's end. I started having problems on my 1st gen Nexus 7 tablet. After fighting it for a half hour I decided to see if my Evo 4G phone was also having problems, and sure enough it is too.
Searching google for "google play store error" discussions in the last 24 hours I am seeing lots of other people chattering about problems too.
Me too, stock

Has anyone gotten this game to load? I'll touch the icon to launch the game, it'll sit there for a minute and then exit back to the home screen. No error message or anything. I sent a customer support email to Square Enix, but who knows how long that will take. Thought maybe someone here knew of the problem and how to fix it.
Thanks in advance!

Exposed is actually the problem. The newer square Enix games check for it and don't work if it is found. Not really sure why they do, but it started with version 1.0.3 of final fantasy dimensions, and it is also present in all versions of IV and V. You have to disable all modules and reboot for it to work.

I actually want to get the game on another device without re-downloading it. I bought the game on my phone because that's the only way I could get it charged to my AT&T phone bill, but I really wanted it to play on my Nexus 7 tablet. I just can't download the whole game again because my wifi sucks at my house. I don't have xposed on the Nexus, but I have Titanium Backup. I transferred the 3 TiBu files from my phone to my tablet and even the obb folder and put it in the obb folder under Android. I then ran Restore App + Data on the tablet. Now, whenever I tap the FFV icon on the tablet, it just hangs for a second and then goes straight to the home screen. I've used TiBu many times before and the method I just described has worked for every other app I've transferred from my phone to my tablet. I'm just confounded why it won't work with this app. Any other suggestions? You've already been a big help!

I think it has to do with the extra data the apply needs to download on first run. Titanium backup will backup the apk and save data, but it doesn't backup the usually 100+mb obb file stored on the sd card.
You could copy the file from:
sdcard/Android/obb/ com.square_enix.android_googleplay.FFV_GP
to your computer and then transfer it to your other device and it should work.
Sent from my Verizon Galaxy Note 2 using Xparent Skyblue Tapatalk 2
I did that. I have the folder: com.square_enix.android_googleplay.FFV_GP in Android/obb and in that folder contains the 140.43MB file: main.105.com.square_enix.android_Google play.FFV_GP.obb. I also have the apk.gz, properties and tar.gz files in the TiBu folder. I then ran Restore App+Data in TiBu. It then goes through the install process and then when it's finished, I hit Open, the screen goes blank for a minute and then exits to home.
Like I said, I've done this with many games and apps before and it's never given me problems like this stupid game is right now. Who would've thought it would be so hard to try to relive a small piece of my childhood?

Fix I found for it to work
I have had the same problem stated, Xposed installed and FFV black screen and returning to home screen.
Xposed is the problem, the fix I found is to move Xposed as a system app and any modules.
Works for me.
Had the same problem. The game worked fine stock ROM but stopped working i flashed the ARHD custom ROM for HOX+ loaded with exposed. Coudn't fix the issue. Now playing it on my DHD.
