Google wallet is supported by a few phones and also country restriction.
On Xperia S you cannot use google wallet (app).

Hi there,
Does anyone know if there is a working APK for ICS/GN out there? I really want to get Wallet prepaid working on my Nexus with all its NFC payment goodness.
Thanks
S
Google wallet only works in the US anyway.. but AFAIK there's no ICS version yet (although someone did report getting the old version working on the Nexus S ICS port).
It will work fine in UK, there is a prepaid option using Google Virtual cards that works on any touch pay terminal, including UK ones.

i think he means that your Google account will simply not allow you to use Google Wallet because you are geographically outside of the US.
Google say otherwise...
"Please note that this service is only available on eligible phones to users in the US."
That's why even on a Nexus S you can't install google wallet from the market.

There's already a topic asking this

So I read that Google Wallet is coming pre-installed on the Galaxy Nexus phones on the Play store. So I went ahead and searched for Wallet on the Play Store and it was finally able to install. Looks like whatever was blocking it before has been lifted.

Yup. I just did the same. I'm on the latest build of ICS, if that matters.
I have a yakjuux (Canada) phone 4.0.2. Today i flashed it to takju (for the wallet) i also flashed the base band and everything, then updated to jelly bean over the air, but Google wallet is not showing in the app drawer. why is that?
Because Google Wallet isn't supported in Canada.

It's disabled by default. You can use Titanium Backup to "unfreeze" it. (I think there is a way to do it without TB as well iirc).

Thanks for the help. Do you know a root free way to enable wallet? I'm on takju so its pre built in the ROM
i just noticed the same issue with google wallet not showing. it IS installed in system/apps and I have also made a few transactions as well, but all of a sudden, it disappeared from the app drawer.
Anyone tried this yet on their nexus?

I just got my Yubikey NEO and it seems to work fine. I am using a Verizon Galaxy Nexus (LTE). It is rooted and I am running MMuzzy's Jelly Bean 4.1.1 for Toro - Build JRO03L. The test app from Yubico, YubiKeyNEO, works and verifies my key. I am using it with LastPass to add a second layer of security beyond a strong password to my password store.
I have asked on their boards if it is possible to use it to lock/unlock my GNex or to unlock my Google Wallet. So far no answer.
There needs to be an NFC finger ring which would be so much more convenient that something on a key chain.
I was just messing around with my Xperia S as we all do, especially with the new Jelly bean Update from Sony out. I was curious to whether I could get any NFC payments working on my phone and I found that a user had been able to get Google wallet working on the Xperia Z forum (Running Jelly Bean). I thought since we just received the new update we might be able to do exactly the same as with the Xperia Z and I followed the steps he described in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2203482
I have subsequently been able to get Google wallet to successfully set up on my Xperia S.
The only step that was different to the Xperia Z way was when editing the Build.Prop you have to add the ro.product.model=Galaxy Nexus as a extra line above ro.product.name=yakju because we don't currently have that as a line in the stock build.prop
so it ends up looking like this in the build.prop:
ro.product.brand=SEMC
ro.product.model=Galaxy Nexus
ro.product.name=yakju
ro.product.device=maguro
ro.build.tags=release-keys
I have been able to set up the wallet fully, but seeing as though I live in the UK I have no idea if it will actually work because Google wallet annoyingly isn't supported over here :'( Just wanted to share what I managed to do with you guys and to see if you can actually pay for goods this way?
I don't take any credit for this other than being curious to whether or not it would work and trying it out...Just follow all the steps provided in g35mt thread above and the steps I mentioned.
Obviously if you don't know what you doing don't do this as you might end up screwing your device over if you do it wrong and I am not responsible for that.

From a discussion with Google wallet Tech no, only the US
Sent from my Xperia S
Google Wallet working on Xperia S running DooMLoRD pre-rooted 6.2.B.0.211 (J
I have got the app working on my Xperia S running DooMLoRD pre-rooted 6.2.B.0.211 (Jelly Bean Rom) Android 4.1.2 in New Zealand and I have my kiwibank visa debit card loaded onto it (which is a new zealand visa debit card). I went into countdown (a supermarket if your not in new zealand which supports contactless payments) . I put my phone up the the terminal and my phone vibrates and says processing the eftpos machine says processing then my phone and the machine say declined. Not because i am poor . Then the eftpos machine says please contact your bank.
Can anyone shed some light on this?
does the card loaded onto my google wallet account have to support contactless payment?
my speculation is that kiwibank dont support visa paywave only mastercard paypass and i dont have a mastercard paypass card, so i am thinking that i might need to enable contactless payment with my bank account.
Hi yeah it's got nothing to do with your card it's because you don't live in the US and Gwallet doesn't work outside the US at this point in time.
