This is really weird an issue;
For a little back story, I had a Nexus 5 before HTC 10. I use an app called Commbank app, it's a Australian banking app which also has a pay-via-nfc option whenever I go shopping and what not. Ever since I installed it on my Nexus 5 (and enabled the nfc option), the phone's NFC stopped working, but at that point I didn't realize it could have been the app. I installed the app on my HTC 10 too and now the NFC on my HTC is dead. It won't register any triggers at all. To confirm its stopped working, I've tried using NFC on my Nexus 7 tablet to my NFC enabled digital camera and it works just fine. But my HTC 10 doesn't. Anyone think the app could have done it? I can't help but think that'd be it. The NFC was working fine before that on my HTC 10. Any other methodology to troubleshoot it?
Any help is appreciated! Thank you!
Did you try restoring to factory settings and configuring everything again?

That didn't work. I even did an absolute clean install of a rom. No luck so far. Looks like its permanently damaged somehow. Wow didn't think an app could do that much of damage.
I'd try an RUU back to full stock.

MY NFC is also not working on HTC 10. It sort of reads but it can't complete any actions. I'm using ledger wallet app, fidesmo app, and the ledger unplugged device (which is a fidesmo card). Tested card on my friend's nexus 5x and the card works fine.

you guys get any results in the end? Is yours the Tesltra branded HTC? I can only get NFC to work paired up with another device with NFC.... can't get it to work with any NFC tags or cards.... also the phone was carrier modded and S-Off and unlocked which I found very odd....

I haven't used Google wallet in a while but I decided to start again. I use the latest cm9 nightly and the latest Franco nightly. I downloaded Google wallet from get jar and have tried updating it through market but that version doesn't work. I'm tired of going to gas stations and looking like an idiot when Google wallet doesn't start up. I have tried 4 different locations to no avail. Is this a hardware or software problem? I'm using the samsung extended battery that I bought from Verizon and have used many times before. If there is anything else you need please ask

Uninstal wallet and use this to get it.
Do you get an error or does it simply not open?
Do you have NFC enabled in android settings>more?
I have a similar issue... while it would say 'sent' on the phone, the payment never went through.. what an embarrassment

When I put my phone up to the pay pass thing nothing happens. I tried opening the app and then putting it up to it but still nothing. Nfc has always been on. I really don't want to go somewhere and have it not work again. Is there any way to check if my nfc stopped working?

Are you using the "butt" of the phone?
i used the "top" part of the back at first, nothing happened. Then I tapped the "bottom" or "hump" of the back, and it worked flawlessly. Also, your phone needs to be turned on and at the home screen for it to work.
Stopped Working
For the past 2 weeks, Wallet initializes and then says Stopped Working. Any and all thoughts appreciated. Running stock ICS.
Hello
I recently got my Galaxy Nexus and I am trying to use Google Wallet but running into a problem I haven't seen yet (A search revealed 1 other person with the problem but was able to resolve by wiping data from the app. This didn't work for me.)
I am running 4.0.4 AKOP build 29. I am unlocked and rooted. Wallet version 1.1-R52v7.
The app installs just fine. I have it linked to my google account. However, I cannot add a Google Prepaid card. It attempts to add for ~ 1min, then says, "Error adding card. Try again later."
I tried uninstalling / reinstalling. I tried the previous version. I also tried wiping the data from the app itself. Nothing has worked so far
Can someone point me in the right direction?
Thanks in advance.
Anyone? I'm very anxious to use GWallet!
You need to use a US credit card. View the adding funds thread for instructions that usually work.
Google wallet won't work if your rooted. Very disappointing.

I am located in the US. I also don't have the option to add funds because it will not allow me to add a prepaid card.

I have this banner. I simply used superSU to get rid of it, so the phone it thinks it does not have root. However, with/without superSU it still does not allow me to add a prepaid card

Mine does the same. Idk wtf is going on. It worked before on my other nexus.

So I called Google, they connected me to the money network. Guy took a quick look. It is something on their end nothing to do with my phone. He can see my IMEI trying to activate but erroring out.Was escalated to T2 tech support and I am waiting on a phone call back.
They called me back. Had me reset the app. Still nothing worked. This has been escalated now to T3 tech support. I was told I would get a call back tomorrow :-/
Does anyone have any ideas on how to fix this issue?

What do you mean Samsung's default number? I have came to the general conclusion that it something to do with the Money Network. They are blocking my phone, my IMEI, from connecting. I was able to login with my Google account on another phone just perfectly and get my prepaid card.

A while back I flashed a ROM to my Nexus S that corrupted my nv_data.bin file which in turn changed my original IMEI to Samsung's generic's. (004999010640000)
After that happened I was unable to re-use Wallet because Money Network's service will not allow that IMEI to work in their system, for obvious reasons.
Check the IMEI on your phone's back cover or box and compare it to the one in your Android's system. Hopefully they match. There's no solutions for the Nexus S currently. You'd have to send it back to Samsung. Good luck.
This happened to me even after Google fixed the provisioning of the Prepaid Card. I just kept Removing and Adding the Card. Eventually, after a couple of days it fixed itself. Try Resetting the App, Deleting Data, uninstalling, and then re-installing.
Money network finally got it working for me. I believe they did a master reset. It now works

Cerberus 2.2 works fine on JB. I am using it on my Galaxy Nexus with JB 4.1.1 (N7 still on pre-order). Two 'issues' that I (and others) have found with Cerberus 2.2 (latest release version) are -
1 - If it takes a picture when someone puts in wrong unlock pin / password, it mutes sound and does not unmute it, and if you try unmute it, it does not 'stay' and requires reboot of phone
2 - Sometimes, after it takes picture on wrong pin / password, it does not send it to you.
The programmer of Cerberus gives GREAT and QUICK support and has already made 2 test versions in response to these issues. I am using loatest test version (Cerberus 2.3) and it is working great now. Thing I also like about Cerberus is that you can get a version you can flash using CWM, so it becomes part of your system, so even if someone steals your phone and does a system reset on your phone, Cerberus stays installed and accessible remotely.
Well now, it looks like the first thing I will buy with my 25 gift bucks is a license to Cerberus XD. Thanks for pointing it out, I've been using seekdroid on my phones but this app looks much better.

Hmm, Anti-Theft on a tablet is a bit more tricky... especially in a situation where your tablet is stolen, it's very likely it'll go out of WiFi range. So Anti-theft apps have no way to report its GPS location online or via SMS. And the theft would not be able to change WiFi networks either when using a security locked screen.

I don't lock my tablet for that reason. Using Cerberus disguised as system framework I would wait until they switched to a different wifi network, and they will, once they are at an actual house I would remotely password the screen so I could get a couple of pictures. I now have an address and a picture of the person. Even if they data reset the tablet it will not uninstall cerberus.
Even if it isn't the persons house you know they know that person, and go from there. I also don't keep anything too private on my tablet so i don't worry about a stranger getting into it.This is the best method I've thought of for tracking down somone with a wifi tablet.
I use webroot for antivirus and antitheft.

Ok, here's the issue I'm running into:
I use NFC to automate my phone profiles like a lot of us probably do with this phone (AT&T S3, using Samsung TechTiles w/NFC Tag Launcher app). Until yesterday, it had been working with complete and total reliability.
However, yesterday I decided to install the following Google Wallet fix to enable Wallet: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1769083&page=114, <-- which by the way works like a charm
Anyway, since then, my NFC for normal profiles (Home, Work, Night time, etc) that I set up initially doesn't always work when I touch or swipe the phone over a TechTile --sometimes it works, other times it doesn't--. So, as often as not, I have to go into phone Settings and turn off and then back on again the NFC switch. At that point, it works fine once again, but having to go into Settings to disable and then re-enable the NFC function kind of defeats the purpose of having working NFC hardware (for regular use with profiles anyway).
Anyone else run into this problem or one similar to it?
P.S.: I have rebooted, etc. multiple times also and yet still, this issue randomly persists.
Any help is appreciated.

Wow really? No one else has installed Wallet and found that it broke their NFC for other NFC-related things (which by the way seems to be what happened)?

I thought it was good to go, but after turning on NFC and downloading the app, it says not compatible.
Which is weird since its an unlocked phone.
Do you need to turn on NFC while downloading? Did you try downloading with NFC off?
Maybe either the frequency or software might not be compatible.

Is anyone else having an issue with NFC. Mine wont switch on. When i tick the box, it automatically unticks. I did copy down a load of app data so maybe i copied over a system one automatically. Any ideas?
Edit: Uninstalled the re-installed Google Wallet. Went in to apps -> NFC service. Cleared all the data and stopped the service. Rebooted the phone and it worked fine. Chose Google Wallet as wallet provider, turned the screen off, then turned it back on and now i'm back to the same problem.

why u can't change it back??! I can change back to sony without problem
there is one thing after install wallet don't update from market.
No idea, each time I revert back to the Sony build.prop after a reboot I get the Google Wallet message "Your device is not supported". When I use the Nexus build.prop is works fine. Odd that I'm getting this error.
strange!! I am c6506 tmobile
So, by all the posts here, Google Wallet does not work without some hackery? I find that interesting, considering it seems that the phone intentionally supported it. I'd love to know who dropped the ball here, Sony or Google. I would love to have Google Wallet working on my ZL, but I refuse to root my phone and alter the build.prop to get it there.
It's definitely Google's fault here. They update Google Wallet every so often with new handset support. Maybe in the next update...maybe.

I kind of figured that would be the case. I hope Google decides to support the ZL as having a non-carrier branded phone (and thus choices like Google Wallet) was half of the allure of the ZL for me.
