[Verizon] Google Wallet Guide: Avoid Secure Element Brick [Updated 5/25/13]

Here is my dilemma. My nexus 7 is stuck on the google X during reboot. Scanning the web it seems I have 2 choices, one do a factory reset or send it back to google. I prefer to fix it myself because it will be much faster. But by doing the factory reset I am going to brick Wallet. And since I can't reboot I can unregister it from the device right?

Can you boot into recover and install an older room if you have it? Have you tried fixing permissions, clearing cache etc?

Good suggestions all. But none worked. It was all kinds of jacked. However, what I did was go online to google wallet, disabled wallet for my N7. Do a factory reset (about the only thing that I was able to start up). After the factory reset, went back into GW on my N7. My credit card was still showing in GW which surprised me along with transactions. However, the card was no longer accessible and I could not add another card. I could remove my card though but the app was pretty much non functional at that point.

I then did a reset wallet from within GW. And now all seems ok again. I re-added my account, my card and it seems good. Took a small amount of work. But as long as it still functions I'm fine with that.
