So to give my phone the hurry up to get updated to N - was going to do the Beta update method via https://www.google.com/android/beta?u=0
Only to have it tell me my Nexus 5X isn't eligible?!
What the hell?
Don't worry too much. As since of yesterday, Android Nougat has been released.
Welcome to the club. Android device manager doesn't work either. It's an account thing that Google is refusing to fix for about two years.
If you really want in, use a different Google account.

That is why I am trying to get into the beta - since their taking their sweet time pushing the update out. Registering your handset for Beta pushes the OTAs out almost immediately.
I seen this trick in another thread, and can confirm that it has worked for me also, but make a second throwaway Google account and register that account for the beta program. You should receive the OTA notification instantly.

So log out of my Google account on my phone, make another and try that way?

Hey everyone I was just wondering if anyone else have had this issue with Google Wallet.
I log into Google Wallet, go to the Google Prepaid Card then sometimes I get the message balance unavailable but most of the time I get my correct balance amount.
I called Google Support and he tried to tell me that my Galaxy Nexus on straight talk is not supported for Wallet. And I told him, that's bs. I told him that I have the unlocked Google branded galaxy nexus from the play store and that it works on over 200 GSM providers ... blah blah blah..basically didn't help me out.
So have anyone else had this issue before where your GWallet balance is unavailable? Like I said its not a major issue.

Its because you rooted it. It will still work I tried mine today after I got my 10$ from Google. It will say unsupported but still works.

No its not cause I'm rooted. I unrooted and ran into the same issue. Strange thing is that on wifi I can see my balance fine. When on HSPA+ I can log into my GWallet but balance says "unavailable"
Nevertheless I called Google Support and they said everything is fine. They said that I get that message because my data connection is not good and GWallet is really strict on security. I asked him if I get this message would it allow me to make a purchase or not. And he I would still be able to make a purchase because to make a purchase doesn't require a data connection. All the communication is done via the nfc between the two accounts.
I'll give a try later and see if he was correct

me too. Sadly after looking around on the net i found that it doesnt work. There might be a way around it once we get root. Can still use the NFC chip just not google wallet, yet. Tmobile and other carriers are trying to develop their own payment system.

I'd rather have Google wallet than some 3rd party app that is hardly established yet. Give it time, i'm sure we will see a hack or an official Google Wallet support. We have the technology in our phones to use the service, just takes time.

Ive been waiting for months for this guys, they are taking their time for sure.
Guys please be careful if this eventually gets working and you have the ability to flash custom roms. When going to a different rom you have to make sure to always reset the app from within wallet before flashing or else you could brick your nfc chip in a way that you can never use wallet again. It happened to me my second day owning my nexus.

I'm having the same exact issue. Just got my sprint gs3 today. Mine is a 32gb and is stock / never been rooted. I'm in the KC area. Makes me wonder if its a software issue, or regional issue.
I'll add my name to the list. I'm still stock and I was getting the above Google Wallet error right away on my new 32GB SGS3.

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.

Ok im getting reports of Google wallet not working even on stock devices i think it has something to do with sprint not for sure but think it has something to do with sprint trying to release a competitor app to google wallet making it impossible for both apps to control the secure element so youd have to choose between google wallet and sprints touch wallet nothing is confirmed but thats my assumption

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.
ok, so i have checked with the Tablet Talk support - its a no go for WhatsApp sms's...
its a real shame, since its my preferred way of sms'ing.
unless someone managed to come up with a solution??

No problem. To recap the thread.
You can't have two devices on whatsapp with same number.
You can have nexus 7 registered with a different number. Google voice for example. There's instructions in that thread about it.

At the moment that isn't possible. When you use your nexus 7, the messages will go to that device until you decide to use your phone and the other way around. All the conversations you had on either device won't be synced to the other.
For all of you that don't know yet. Today's Google wallet update is now available for vzw users.
I did read comments that vzw users will need a "smart sim"
Can anyone educate me on what a smart sim is?

Has anyone tried NFC payments with this version? I'm rooted and running a hacked older version of the Wallet app on my VZW GNex that still works with NFC, and I don't think the new features are enough for me to want to lose NFC.
Anyone?
Brad
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.

Do you have some more info on this for me? I've used NFC in the past without issues using official releases from the store. Also heard of people with secure element errors. I've had my nexus and sim since launch.

Mine let me setup tap to pay haven't tried it yet though but is set up and supposedly ready.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app
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.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app
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.
