cant install verizon cloud after flash - HTC Rezound

Hey, for some reason when I go to download Verizon Cloud to restore some of my data it won't let me download it, it says "this item isn't available on your carrier" even though I have a Verizon phone.
Any help would be appreciated!
Also the ROM that I installed was Tron 2.2, runs super smoothly

On Tron, and most other AOSP/AOKP ROMs, the phone no longer identifies itself as a "Verizon" phone, so Verizon specific apps don't work... Some of them you can side load and will work, others will not or will only work partially since most of them require other Verizon specific apps and services to be running on the phone and I don't know of any AOSP ROMs that have those services loaded. Check the various APK repositories and try to install, but to be honest it's only a 50/50 chance it will work.
This is the reason that we generally use Ultimate Backup (or Titanium Backup, My Backup, etc) and Nandroid images, and Google cloud based services and do not use Verizon services on custom ROMs.

Alright, fixed the issue, went into my build.prop and changed "ro.carrier" from "unkown" to "verizon" and aloud me to download it.

I gave you the exact path, it is /system/build.prop, the /system directory is directly off the root of device... If you use Root Explorer it should be simple to find.

Trying to make this work for me...
i changes the ro.unkonwn to "Verizon" ...saved. Restarted my phone and still doesnt recongize Verizon Cloud. Any help pls...
What intend to do with Verizon Cloud is to backup my text messages to my computer so i may print them out in a clean subsequent form. If this is the not the correct program for my needs then i need a 3rd party software...ive tried backing up to Dropbox but its messy and has computer jargon Ive tried GMAIL and yes it is legible but in chronological disarray. Does anyone know of a suitable 3rd party software like COOLMUSTER athough i dont want to pay for crap thank you very much for the help!

[Q] Google Wallet?

I'm willing to bet not at first. I believe Verizon will keep it off so that it can substitute its own program that does the same thing. Then after a bit the devs will get it working for everyone to use.
I'm pretty bummed the device's for VZ are still shipping without Wallet...The previous "excuse" from VZ was that
...because Google Wallet did "not simply access the operating system and basic hardware of our phones like thousands of other applications," the service "needs to be integrated into a new, secure and proprietary hardware element in our phones"....

btw has anyone tried the method mentioned here to get it on their device? Have to use the default android browser to do it evidently, so no Dolphin, or Chrome even...
http://www.androidauthority.com/google-wallet-for-verizon-galaxy-nexus-50922/
...How to Install Google Wallet on Your Verizon Galaxy Nexus Manually:
1. Open browser on your phone and open http://market.android.com
2. Look for Google Wallet
3. If the browser prompts you to open the Market, don’t. You should stay in the browser.
4. Once results come back, tap on the icon for Google Wallet.
5. Tap the Install button before signing into your Google account.
Remember, you are doing this from the browser and not from the Market app.
6. When you have already signed in, you will be redirected to the Market page in the browser.
7. Don’t be surprised to discover that you don’t have an option to install the app since it doesn’t support Verizon.
8. Tap the back button so you are prompted for the Browser or Market again. This time, choose the Market.
This will let you open the Google Wallet page through the Android Market. You will get the option to install already.

The method doesn't work, but there appears to be an .apk somewhere that can be installed.
I installed it successfully on my DINC4GLTE. It just does not have the permissions to allow use yet.

I tried the Nexus method (or very similar) on the nexus I had for a week before the Inc4 was released and it worked. Haven't tried it on my Inc4 but it's on my list... I'm kind of waiting for JB ROM or CM10 before I start messing around too much. It was sure nice (JB) for the two days I ran it on the Nexus!

For those that are rooted you can try the version from Modaco. http://www.modaco.com/topic/354635-region-device-root-patched-google-wallet-apk-15-r75-v6/
It will open but gives me an "insufficient secure element privileges for this system image (release keys)" error. I'm still researching this one.

Looks cool but it must be connected to same network (192.168.1.xx)!
I dont really know if you want it to immediately install, but if you dont then use some cloud storage etc. Dropbox, Box, Google Drive and then download it to your phone. But if you want it to be immediately installed after you send it then I am afraid I cant help you.
I think the best way would be some kind ofvpn network way to remote control Your phone

Well, if you could upload your apk to there, that would be the best way. You might have to design your own app, unless you can figure out a way to adb over the internet, then you could use adb push and adb install.
Other than that, you have to make your own api for it. And it would only work on rooted phones.

Carbon App sync and Backup

has anyone tried this on the Rezound? I have and it errors out while trying to backup either locally or online via dropbox, box, etc.
Trying to figure out if its all rezounds or maybe my custom ROM that is the culprit.

beta worked fine on my rezound. the release market app is doing the same thing you described above. i sent koush a log already and was talking to him on G+ about it.
Just use datasync beta. Same thing, but with more features and does cloud backup for free

yeah, sent him logs as well but can't get it working. First beta didn't work either for me and didn't try the updates. Asked him through google+ to remove rezound from list of compatible devices since this doesn't seem to be getting fixed. Don't mind supporting devs, but its completely broken for our device, and so far no support or answers why.
Does this REALLY WORK TO NOT ROOTED MOBILES???????????
Can REALLY backup all the apps WITH THEIR SETTINGS??????
Does it try it anyone to tell us if it is work?

if phone is rooted, it can be backed up to sd card. You have to have the paid app to restore apps though. Its in the play store.

And I believe the better feature of the prg is that work even to no root mobiles because if i have a root mobile why I use that prg and not the titanium pro?????!?

Carbon App sync is a bit wobbly on my S3 (running JB 4.1.2.) - can backup to Dropbox but not Google Drive, whereas on my Asus TF101 (running JB 4.2.1) it does both!

Now I can it simply want the latest Samsung use drivers from Samsung site
Newest version will let me back up message logs but still no apps. No response from koush either. Obviously rezound isn't a big priority but still pissed that I paid 5 bucks and he still lists the rezound as compatible...

With that Smart Switch app from Samsung you just have to download it on your S3 and new S4. Then let each others' backs touch, and everything will be transferred via wifi direct which is very fast.

Thanks guys for the recommendations. Here are my take on these:
Samsung Switch - tried this, useless as F!
Helium - could have taken that route were it not for the software I used
Sorry Glebun. Won't happen again.
As for the software I used, it's Wondershare MobileGo for Android. Did what it's supposed to do. Pretty much.
I just hate that there are multiple entries in the phone book. For example, he has a contact with multiple numbers, all of them are going to be on a separate entries. Strange.
Should've tried Helium.

Is there any way someone could pull the stock browser.apk so I can side load it on my S5. The new s5 comes with chrome but I kinda like the S4 stock browser for certain things. I know there is at least one other member with an s5 that would like it too. I searched Google but couldn't find it.

My only problem with chrome is that it has problems with embedded youtube videos. Sometimes there isn't sound and other times the sound comes out of the ear speaker instead of the back. If it wasn't for that I would be happy with chrome
