Official Google Wallet on VZW/CDMA GN

I was having trouble with the browser back button, market install loop hole so I was excited to find this.
1. clear data on browser and market
2. go to market.android.com from a PC and search for GW
3. sign in like normal
4. when the drop down shows up with your devices (all grey'd out) use chrome to phone to send that link
5. the accept and download button should pop up in the market app on your GN.
6. hit the button and the app will install even though the incompatibility error still is displayed.

or...
Turn on airplane mode, and wifi, and just go to the Android Market and download it. There are a few ways to do it, and more than a few threads on it.

I tried the airplane mode with wifi the other day and it didn't work for me. I will have to give that a shot again today.

Its been a while since I did it (the same day the latest update came out).

From your phone's browser, google "google wallet". Click the corresponding result that is the android market link and when it pops up a windows to use Market or Browser to open the link, just choose Market. Press install and be done. Now if they would just get the pre-paid cards working again...

You just need to click on a direct link then then open in the market app.

It works but it won't let me add the prepaid card

This was already posted by me. You're a little late. Not to be rude but, you, much like many other people are the problem with the over cluttered redundant threads on XDA. There's a search button for a reason. Now should anyone have any trouble, there is a lot more info there since we had to troubleshoot more than just the Verizon devices.

The basic method is probably the same, but doing it through Chrome to Phone was much more convenient for me. Worked the first time, unlike doing it through the phone browser.

I'm not arguing that it was any better or worse. However, it would have been more efficient to use a thread already in use. It's kinda like all these battery threads we have. Why do we have so many? People either don't want to search or just feel good creating their own thread. This place could be much more efficient with some spam control.

Did you add the prepaid card on another rom? Once you switch you lose the ability tobre-add until Google fixes the issue.

Hi jonathan3579. Full credit to you for coming up with the method - thank you!
Respectfully, I would disagree with your statement that the OP's post is just clutter. The OP provides a new approach to load GW, which I appreciate because I could not get the other method to work (prolly my error, but nice to have alternatives).
This new approach would be extremely hard to find on your thread "How to get Google Wallet (from Market) on Galaxy Nexus" - that thread is over 10 pages long, and I don't know of any way to sort through that many responses to find the one post with a usefull suggestion for an alternative method.
If there is a better way to search that I'm unaware of that will help me find a post like this that's on a 10 page thread I am all ears though. Thanks for your feedback.

No...NoteII is not officially released it but I have read here that it is available for pre-order online....

Is the 64 GB version going to be a release model, or will it release way later like it did with the S3?
Is there an SD card port?
How much is the SPen?
How mod friendly is the Note? By this I mean I suspect it's basically the same as the S3 but do the mods do a good job of incorporating the pen?
What are some good apps that are optimized for something like the Note as opposed to other android phones?

I think 64gb version will be released late as Sammy has been doing for ages...
Yeah....it has a external microsd cars slot.
Spen for note was around $100 here in India 3months back.But since note2 has a different spen,I suppose it can only be said when Sammy puts it on sale...
By mod,do you mean custom roms???if so,if the rom is based on stock rom,it will be fully compatible.But if the rom is AOSP,you will miss all features of spen but still you can use it as a normal stylus.
You can find all spen optimized apps in samsung's s-choice app.

well did the phone in the video look like your s3? i didn't think so. the uploader doesn't even know what he's doing.
if you had read on "many sites", then you would've discovered that it is a brand new OS that has not been released yet. and currently, the only supported device is the Galaxy Nexus. of course, ports and such will always get to the other devices, but as of now, no other device (including our Galaxy S III) are supported. if you really had read, then this thread wouldn't have been made.
not trying to be an a$$, but seriously...

I did read and I saw it was only tested for nexus on the ubuntu site also I read the headline of the video stating it was on the sg3 you are focusing on the reading aspect when in fact it was a mistake by the video poster and just cause they haven't released any type of ubuntu mobile version doesn't negate the possibility of a leak which was my original hope :/

You're missing several "somethings". How did you find the answer last time?

maybe i meant to say is there an su.zip or superuser.apk for it...
it's up to you if you want to answer it or keep being anything but helpful. either way, i'll find my answer sooner or later. i know it's a little hard to believe but not everyone eats, sleeps and breathes android dude. the last thing i loaded on my phone was the 4.0.2 OTA update. it's definitely been a while so i really don't remember where i looked.

So I downloaded the factory image and used the flash-all.sh script as instructed by Google. I was running a custom-build 4.2.2 that had some issues, plus I wanted the new radios. Everything worked fine and dandy as expected, but just giving everyone a heads up: upon first boot, when I was setting up my WiFi and inputting my G-Mail credentials, I heard some low-faint music coming from my ear piece. Turning the volume up, I could tell that the phone had auto-dialed that Verizon "activate" number, I guess to refresh what it needed to refresh. It took all of 20-30 seconds and was finished before I was done with the setup. I was worried because I remember people saying not to do this with an LTE device, but it seems to be OK.
This is the first time I can remember or noticed the phone doing this upon returning to a stock state. Don't know if it's new behavior or what.

What battery issues are you referring to? The battery life will be determined by your use. If you have abnormally bad battery life it could be an app with a wake lock or you could just have a bad battery.

[Q] Update to 4.3

Hello there. I am new user of galaxy nexus, I got android 4.2.1 . and I got heavy lags, I think this is TRIM problem, and I saw 4.3 solved this problem. But my phone won't update. Always says that system is up to date (Clearing data in Google services framework won't help). So I can't find exactly way to update my phone. And another question why there is no factory image for 4.2.1 even if I using it? Maybe that's a bug that I updated to 4.2.1 and the reason why I can't update to 4.3.

If I will install takju replace yakjuwx, will my phone work properly, and will it work with Ukrainian GSM carriers?

Why wouldn't it?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus

I thought takju were designed for USA, and will not work out-USA. On your opinion is it fine to install it instead yakjuwx?

Have you read the threads regarding the conversion?
The only difference is the inclusion of Google wallet. Nothing about it would cause it not to work outside the US.
If takju didn't work outside the US, there wouldn't be so many people using it or recommending it. Just go do your own research. The answers are out there for you to read.

Its a hard phone to kill. You can always reload stock and relock the boot loader. People worry too much about this. When you have a nexus you shouldn't worry so much about modifying it.
