When I bought my S3, I used it for about 20 minutes before rooting it and installing CM10. I've flipped through a few nightlies on it and just set up Google Wallet a few days ago. I never used it. I think I flashed another nightly at some point and then tried using Google Wallet at a BP gas station. My phone triggered the first time and I had to enter my PIN. I put the phone back to the reader after entering the PIN and received a message "Reader Detected, please have the cashier check...." ( I need to grab a screenshot of the exact error).
I read up on a few things and reset the app from within the app and completed a resetup of the app. I tried at a different BP this morning and got the same result.
Am I just SOL using Google Wallet now - did I fry the Secure Element? From what I can read it doesn't seem like that I did.
Anyone else running CM10 able to get their Wallet working? I've seen a few guides for the international S3 but I don't want to do that and really fry something.
Do you have the cm dualboot installed?

It sounds like it might be the reader at the gas stations a lot of BPs don't have there's updated. Or if you have a case on your phone that could also cause interference.

I do have a case - I've done NFC transfers with my wife's phone but I'll try the next transaction with the case off. And I'll head somewhere else, thanks for the heads up on BP.
Tried McDonalds this morning - figured I needed coffee so might as well use them as a test bed.
No case this time. Put the phone on the reader, got the NFC sound and got prompted to enter PIN. Picked up the phone, entered PIN and was prompted to put the phone back to the reader. Put the phone back to the reader, got the NFC sound and the wallet "W" logo lit up. And that was it. I let it sit for 5 seconds or so then pulled the phone away and got the "reader detected..." message.
Do I just need to let this thing sit on the reader longer?
I've had this issue before, coincidentally at BP and McDonald's. Both times I used the reader I had forgotten to tell the person behind the counter "credit." So, maybe that's the reason?

So I grabbed the leaked official Sprint Jelly Bean ROM and put it on my phone. Didn't clear out Google Wallet ahead of time and re-set it up once I got the phone running again.
Went to a different McDonalds for another coffee (this testing is going to over caffeinate me) and it worked no problem. So it could be a CM10 problem or it could be the cashier at the other places I've tried. What I need to do now is put CM10 back on the phone and go to the McDonalds that it worked on to see if it is now broken.
For now though, a stock ROM is solid.

the secure element thing is a myth. i've never reset GW before wiping and it always works for me on CM10
I'm starting to think the same. When I switched to the official ROM I didn't do anything according to popular wisdom, just overwrote the phone with the new ROM and things worked. I switched back to CM10, just need to make it over to the McDonalds again to see if it works or not.
Its not like this is the most useful thing in the world either, considering how few places accept it, but I like to see if I can get things to work

more place will begin to accept it... i hope. cause it's awesome
I think it is actually something in CM10 causing the issue. I went back to CM10 and went back to the same stores that I had gotten it to work in using stock and had issues again. Ah well.
Just FYI for everyone still having issues with GWallet. I did the reset from inside the app, and it just so happens there was an upate for the app when I did that. Now running version 1.5-R81 - v4
I went to a McD to try it out and it worked. I did tell the cashier that it was "credit" since I read on another thread somebody had mentioned that. It lookes to me like he punched something on the screen. Rooted, FreGS3 v0.2.0 with Agat kernel v0.2.1
Hope it helps

I've used Tap and Pay at several locations with great success. CVS, Home Depot, Mcdonalds, and 711. I have also tried at BP several times and always got the error message you described. I always get strange looks from the cashier. One time a gas station attendant yanked the reader away and started asking what did I think I was doing? He seemed to think I was trying to hack into his card reader or something.
Since upgrading to JB 4.2 the Amazon app store keeps having me authenticate periodically. I assume that this is related to the JB update, but I haven't seen anyone else mention this issue. Particularly when accessing Tweetcaster Pro is when I see the issue start, but then no other app works correctly.
Just for some background, I wiped my phone yesterday with 4.1 and then installed 4.2. I have the latest version of the app store and have tried clearing cache/data, uninstalling, reinstalling. No help.
So I'd like to know if anyone else is seeing this or if it is just me.
Thanks
Probably just needs a compatibility update, same as every other app that isn't working on 4.2 right now.

Thanks. I figured that was the case. I would just be more at ease knowing I wasn't alone.
Same behaviour here after updating to 4.2. Hope Amazon is fast with a fix...
Same here - driving me freaking crazy
You may have to redownload the Appstore apk, there seems to be one with a new layout now.

It kept asking me to sign in and when I did it was saying wrong password even though I knew it was right. I only had about 3 paid apps for free that I still used so I just uninstalled them and purchased from the play store and uninstalled the amazon app store.....haven't "bought" a free app in like 3 months...the selection is getting to be crap

Sorry for you, but glad to hear it. I ended up calling them today and they hadn't heard of any issues. I suspect they know now.
I'm getting the same thing too although my login credentials actually work. The one thing I haven't checked is whether or not these logins are creating a new device authorization every time.
I completely wiped my phone before upgrading to 4.2 and Amazon App store and Verizon FiOS Mobile Remote are the only two apps with issues.
I have the same issue with Forum Runner. Every time I close the app I get signed out and need to re-login every time I open it back up. So annoying but I'm guessing its a 4.2 update thing. I've deleted it and re-downloaded it and it made no difference.

They explained to me that everytime you login, it creates a new device instance. They limit it at 25. I hit that mark yesterday.

I've read that in the past, but it's never been true for me. I use TubeMate from Amazon and dont need the Amazon Market installed to do so.
Having the same issue with the app store. Just got off the phone with amazon and they are aware of the problem and are working on a fix now

Ouch! I just logged in to my Amazon account and saw all the "Nexus 7 xx" devices that were registered.
Thanks for the heads up. I deregistered all the new devices.
This worked for me
From another forum I found this solution to work:
1) Delete Google Account
2) Reboot Device
3) Reactivate Google Account
4) Log on with Amazon Appstore App
All apps load and run without need to log on each time now.
I also deleted excess Amazon devices as noted above.

seems like it does not work for me.
still working for you?
Yeah it does add a new device each time... I have 7! Deleted 6 of them... still same problem.
I had a problem a while back with the Appstore logging out daily, so each log in adds a new device on-line. It was "fixed" on a revC apk and working fine for a few weeks. Just started doing the same yesterday. Anyone else having this issue?
I haven't seen this issue since it was fixed except for once. The appstore was logged out for no reason. It hasn't happened since so I haven't thought about it again. Not sure of any cause though.

Ditto here. I think I'm done with Amazon apps. Combine the losing password with the fact that you can't see the version of app store without logging in (to see if you need to update) and you can't paste into the password box (since I keep my passwords in a safe and normally don't see/type them) it becomes way too annoying.
So you are giving up on an app that gives you a free app every day because you occasionally have to re enter your details?
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk HD
I uninstalled appstore, and re downloaded and reinstalled from here: http://www.amazon.com/gp/mas/get/android seems to stick now. I have too many free apps to give it up, although I am replacing them 1 by 1. Play is so much faster at updating.

Well, not just that. The free app every day used to include some good ones, but I can't remember the last time I saw one that interested me. The re-entering of details (and situations where you can't do that, like if you're on a plane) combined with the lack of timely app updates (and occasional battery drain issues) just make it more hassle than it's worth for me. YMMV.
As of a few days ago, no matter which app I choose from https://play.google.com/apps, although it states that is being installed on the Android SGIII, the app never gets pushed to the phone. I'v used this method for a long time, for things I had found while browsing from my laptop (of course), so it's a bummer if this won't work, anymore. Any ideas / suggestions?!?
TIA,
Stefan
Weird... I pushed an app to my sgs3 and my sons from the website just a couple weeks ago.
May be a dumb question, but are you logged in to Google on your computer? Have you tried doing it from your mobile browser to see if it works that way? Are u on a custom ROM?
Sent from my SGH-T999 using Tapatalk 2
All of the above. As I said - I used to be able to do it before, including older phones, and the SGIII. I tried from the same phone (using Dolphin, FF, built-in), also, aside from my laptop, also using different browsers. Verified the account login (i.e. the Google account being used), etc. No go
Check the drop down list of phones linked to your account, occasionally when you flash a ROM the Play Store will recognize it as a different phone. Happened to me a while back, I went to the online play store and it listed 2 S3s, I just had to select the "other" one and it worked.

Good point - thank you, but unfortunately not the case this time. There was no change between ROM or version of such between "before" and "after". So frustrating...

I'm having a strange problem, and I'm really hoping someone might have an answer, because it's driving me crazy...
I'm not able to buy anything through the Play Store (including in-app purchases). Every time I try to it tells me "This payment method has been declined", regardless of what method I choose (Play Store credit, Google Wallet, Bill to carrier, and 4 valid cards I have saved). I can't even 'purchase' free items (ie. free music tracks).
I'm also having an issue with the Google Wallet app, in that I can't add funds. Every time I try, regardless of how I try to add them (tried 3 valid cards), it tells me I cannot send money with Google Wallet.
I'm running Echoe v6 (international ROM), and everything was working fine, until yesterday. I made a full backup in TWRP, flashed a couple other ROMs I wanted to try, and finally did a full wipe and restored the TWRP backup I had made. Ever since restoring I've been having these problems, though everything else is working exactly how it was prior to backing up/restoring.
I've tried clearing data/cache for both Play Store and Wallet, deleted and re-added my credit cards on a PC, and still nothing. If anyone has ANY ideas or suggestions, they would be GREATLY appreciated.

Unfortunately, I don't think anything I did fixed it. I'm thinking it was some sort of issue with my account on Google's end, that ended up resolving itself.
I had spent hours messing with it, finally got so pissed off/frustrated that I turned the phone off, plugged it in, and did some work on my laptop. When I came back to the phone about 4 hours later, it was working again. During that time, I went to the Google Wallet site from my Palm and deleted a few old, unused cards from it, but I don't think that had anything to do with the problems I was having.
I wish I could offer you more help, but I can't. Good luck though!

Thanks anyway man. Yeah this issue has been frustrating me for a good couple of weeks now. I don't really buy much on the play store but now that i do want to purchase something it is just pissing me off. I think I'm going to contact Google see if they can help or something.

I'm having this problem too, says my card is declined when trying to add money to my Google Wallet. Just called the bank, they don't have anything showing my card being rejected, so it looks like it may be a problem on Google's end
