went to download the app, but it says that it is not supported. Maybe they will have an update.
Is there a way of getting google wallet? If so, how? I find it strange that a phone with NFC doesn't have google wallet support
*edit, I have the sprint optimus G
I tried..... Apk file I saved on sd card transfered to LGOG internal tried to install install failed..., sprint varient

Unfortunately there are lots of phones with nfc that don't have wallet support.
Carriers are making a competing solution (isis) , and Google is against rooted phones having wallet.
Put the two together and you get grid lock.

that's rather unfortunate. I'm on sprint right now, and I have yet to see this competing solution. I don't understand why carriers hate google so much
they are responsibly for like 80% of phone sales.
I wouldn't mind so much if isis was out already. But in the mean time at least let us have google wallet...

I would think if you have tethered clockworkmod you could always use that to edit the file with ADB.
Thought this could do with a bit of a revival given new information and my own (admittedly shallow) scratching.
Google Wallet, for those who didn't know, requires a "Secure Element" to work. The Secure Element is a piece of hardware - it's a chip on your phone which stores your google wallet card and, I think, your account details (username & password).
AT&T, VZW & T-Mobile etc (but especially VZW) have stated that Google wallet violates their terms because the software requires a hardware element (the Secure Element) to work.
http://www.droid-life.com/2012/12/1...e-wallet-says-google-needs-to-change-the-app/
In the above, they have stated that they will happily allow Google Wallet if they do away with the Secure Element requirement.
Interestingly, All the above wireless companies are banding together to create ISIS Wallet - their own alternative. The claim was that ISIS Wallet uses a special SIM instead of the Secure Element.
Fast forward to this week just gone. More details of ISIS Wallet have emerged. Namely this:
http://www.theverge.com/2012/12/19/3785538/verizon-isis-app-secure-element
Yes, ISIS Wallet seems to use the phone's Secure Element. Yet they're still stopping people from making a choice and installing Google Wallet instead.
Basically, it doesn't look like we'll be able to install Google Wallet on our phones legitimately any time soon (if at all)
so reading up on this nfc stuff i get excited to start using it. trying to find kiosks ect...then to find out if there are any i couldnt use it anyway
Well if you upgrade to Kit Kat rom you don't need this hardware (Secure element). Kit Kat should include HCE which no longer requires a secure element to use tap and pay according to this.
http://www.xda-developers.com/android/google-wallet-updated-with-kitkat-nfc-host-card-emulation/
I'm using houstonn's KitKat rom and was able to download and setup google wallet, but can't get it to work yet. Not sure if the ROM I have is updated with HCE.

I thought I had heard the 16GB versions were working. I bet Sprint and Google just need to get together and make sure the 32GB version is added to the list of approved devices, hopefully that can be fixed in the next day or two.

Wallet Fix
There is a fix, at least it worked for me!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1365360
SE borked?
I guess this is more of a vote than anything else. I successfully activated Google Wallet on my Sprint SGS3 on 6/22 and added my Citi card. Doing so also automatically activated a $10 Google gift card.
I then rooted my device and ensured Google Wallet was still a go (I simply would receive the warning banner stating that the device was technically unsupported due to root).
I then started reading reports that Google Wallet was dead for various users so I checked again and sure enough, no more access to Wallet for me.
I wanted to see if the Sprint LF9 update would cure me. I took a risk and decided to unroot my device (ODIN back to stock). Since I couldn't clear and deactivate Wallet before I ODINed back to stock, do you think my SE is dead?
In other words, you think I should try to exchange my device now or wait to see if the Wallet issue is fixed and then check my device to see if everything is functional?
I guess I could always root again and attempt to apply the workarounds posted in the forum. Anyway, let me know what you think and thanks for the input.
Just tried activating my Google wallet and it said this device is not supported. . Anybody know what's up with that?

Chip is not needed just a software fix, there is one for the S3 and 4, also there is a NFC sim card you can get that contains a secure element.
But you then need to fool wallet into thinking you have another carriers HTC ONE. This can be done via the build.prop.
Actually there is a version of the apk floating around with it done in app not sure it will work here

Well using those guides I installed Google Wallet and its asking me to setup tap and pay. I need to see if I can get one of my parents to help me test it tomorrow or sometime soon if someone else doesn't try before me.

You need a secure sim. Go to my Verizon and you'll be able to order one for free. It should ask you if you want one somewhere underneath your phone picture.
Unfortunately, vz still blocked tap to pay payments. So, right now, it doesn't matter what you have. I got a secure sim a while ago just to be ready when everything is ready to go.
If you have recently upgraded your phone at a vz store, you m may already have an NFC enabled secure sim.

I have a Verizon Galaxy Nexus (rooted/custom ROM) and it sets up fine for me. It doesnt say that my device isnt supported like the last version. The Tap and Pay sets up with no issues and under settings>about>Tap and Pay, it says "device is ready for tap and pay purchases." I havent tried making a purchase yet but everything seems to work fine so far.
OK, here's an update base on my experiments yesterday (9/18):
Non-rooted VZW GNex with new Google Wallet: NFC payment successful
Rooted VZW GNex with old (modified) Wallet: NFC payment successful
After these tests, I updated my rooted phone with the new app, but I have not yet tried it. All indications are that it should work (e.g. it says it's "ready"). Both SIMs are at least a year old and almost certainly not "secure SIMs" (is there any way to verify with the device?)
So, get the app and start making some NFC payments! It's great entertainment for the night crew at Whataburger and Jack in the Box.

I dont think you need a special SIM. People have confirmed it working already without it
So, ive had GW installed for a long time with an apk i got off here. Can anyone confirm that accepting the update google play is offering will not break being able to use nfc to pay?
Might try it tonight. I would probably disable before taking update being you probably have an unsupported version now technically.

I am running liquidsmooth and I can confirm that tap to pay is functioning properly. Just bought myself some grub at mcdonalds. I still have the same sim that I got 2 years ago with launch of the gnex.
Doesn't matter whether you have a secure sim or not, the API for the secure sim wasn't on the gnex or implemented properly.
Beamed from my Maguro
I remember when the gnex first came out and Google Wallet worked right out of the box!
I've been using the GW app from the APK I got here. I didn't need anything special because my VZW Gnex came with the secure SIM already in it. I installed the update and will try it later today.
I don't have a special sim and the version right from the play store works absolutely fine on my Verizon galaxy nexus including tap to pay. I've used it at the store several times already since the update. The secure sims are for Isis, not Google wallet.
