about:debug - is it meant to bring up a page like about:config in Firefox? If so then it doesn't work. As mentioned in a previous post, I have the debug option in the normal menus... perhaps about:debug or some of the other abouts I tried when I first got the device unlocked this, or perhaps it is there as standard.

Either way, you can change the UAString in there to Desktop.

People who are commenting that there is an ICS option to "load as desktop" - there is, but this means you still get the mobile pages quite often and then have to reload the page. The OP wanted something to just always open as Desktop... which UAString will do.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Bilbo Fraggins:
Cheers all, had to do about:debug in browser and then debug appeared in the menu. Sorted now!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
typing about:debug doesn't do anything immediately in the page. It just enables the debug menu in the settings of the browser.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Bilbo Fraggins:
Noticed after applying this setting that some sites still load as the mobile version. Amazon.co.uk for one.

Any thoughts?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] PeterHook:
Works the same in ICS. Just checked.

I have two hotmail and one Gmail accounts set up in the HTC mail app. I set them up as generic POP3/IMAP accounts (meaning, I didn't click on the preset for hotmail/gmail when first creating the accounts). I set the up exactly the same as I always have on my Incredible.

I have them all set to update every two hours, however, only the first account (both the one created first and the one selected as primary), will actually sync automatically. The other two only sync when I manually prompt it.

I have deleted and re-set up the accounts multiple times, and even did a factory reset of the phone just in case I broke it somehow, but I get the same results. Is anyone else setting up multiple POP/IMAP accounts and having this issue?

I have also noticed that often, the led doesn't stop blinking after I check the email.... and the mail icon on my home screen will stop showing an unread number when I open it even if I don't open the unread mail....

I use the Hotmail app from the market. Notifies me as soon as I get an email. There is also a Gmail app if you need it.

I've had the notification light blinking with nothing pending to check with other apps, notably Talk. It seems that if I'm in the app when a new message comes in, so I read it immediately, and there's nothing in the notification bar, it will turn the blinky light on and not turn it off until you exit out and read it again. Not really a huge issue, if you know to look for it. What is more of an issue, however, is when the light never goes on when I have an unread message, and I have to check the screen manually. Had that same problem from time to time on my Incredible running a Sense 3.5 ROM, so I wonder if that's just a problem with the apps that come with the new Sense.
[HTC Rezound] bast525:
I can't stand the Gmail or hotmail apps. The hotmail app doesn't get emails past 30 days and the Gmail app, to me, is a mess. More than that, I really like having the unified inbox of the HTC mail app.

I have a similar issue. I had a Thunderbolt and both email (the Native sense combined box) and the GMail client synced fine. I switched to the Rezound. Here is what I have found. If I use the Gmail client everything syncs with the gmail servers but the native sense combined box does not update as read or deleted. If I use the native client it all syncs correctly, including the Gmail client. Here is the problem. If I use the computer or my tablet, the email on the the Rezound client does not update as read or deleted. I know I can remove the account form the HTC/Android client, but I shouldn't have to and I like the combined in box. I don't know if this is a flaw in this version of Android 2.3.4 or something is set up wrong. I am using IMAP and have not changed any online settings since switching from the Thunderbolt.
[HTC Rezound] bast525:
I never found a solution, so instead I came up with a workaround. I just put the sync all widget on my home screen. Now, whenever I get new email in my primary account, which doses update automatically, I am in the habit to hit.the sync all widget. Not the best solution but it's all I could think of barring going with like k-9 mail or something.
[HTC Rezound] callcom:
Yes, had a problem initially, but now....

Bought my phone on opening day, and immediately noticed a problem with the stock email program (not syncing, only displaying 5 email accounts). Initially added 10 various email accounts (3 pop, 3 yahoo, 2 gmail, 1 hotmail and 1 aol), but only 5 would show up on the display, so I tried adding the missing accounts again and got a message saying that the account was already setup (weird). Now all of a sudden, in the last couple of days, all 10 email accounts are now visible. I suspect that HTC might be pushing software updates/fixes to correct some of the initial bugs in the OS.

I bought one clearly labeled for the ATT version but it's clearly made for the International version. It's actually a nice case. Probably comparable to the Barely There Case-Mate black matte case.

[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AdvApp:
Since the recent update, I've noticed a defect in Swype entry in the browser address field. Wonder if anyone else can duplicate this or experience it. (It may have been there before and I just didn't notice it.) It currently has Swype v3.25.91.34889.34889.5238.GT_P7510.

Open the browser

Put the cursor in the address field and clear out any existing text.

Ensure that the Swype keyboard is enabled.

Swype an entry. For example, I Swyped "Samsung"

Since auto-spacing is disabled in the address bar, you must press the space to add one.

After pressing space, it removes the last two characters and adds the space. So, in my example, "Samsung" becomes "Samsu ".

This behavior is exhibited:

Whether using the small or large Swype keyboard, for all words entered in the address bar.

Only in the address bar. It does not happen in other text-entry applications; e.g., Evernote, QuickOffice, etc.

Only on my Galaxy Tab 10.1 which comes with Swype onboard. I do not get this with the Swype beta I have loaded on my OG Droid.

Lukegb,

Does this zip include the Wallet (1).apk you had me flash in the other thread? With that I was able to successfully add my Citi card where as before it continued to force close.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Evostance:
Yeah it should do
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lukegb:
It should do.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] watso4183:
I restored to my stock backup, did a wipe and confirmed it working on stock ROM (I was originally only getting success in MoDaCo ROM.)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] turtiturt:
Adding Funds

I flashed the zip you posted in the original Google Wallet forum earlier today after wiping cache/formatting etc and this worked fine on the stock rom, I now have my $10 pre paid card all set up.

Have any of you worked out a way to add funds to this card or is the Citi card the only way to use this more often?

Thanks for all your work
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] watso4183:
To add funds to your Google Prepaid card:

1) On your device, open Wallet app.

2) Choose Payment Cards.

3) Tap the Google paypass card.

4) Choose Add Funds
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] turtiturt:
I am in the UK and the add funds section has the country locked to the US with no option to change it
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DanRyb:
Did any of you use Wallet on a Nexus S?

I had been using it, and I had added $25 of my own funds back then, bought something, and I had like $23 left in my wallet.

I did successfully get this Wallet working on my Galaxy Nexus (thank you!!!) but when I added the Google pre-paid, it gave me a new card (the last 4 digits are different than what I had prior) and I just have the $10 for signing up.

I'm guessing it's also tied somehow to hardware?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Evostance:
Are you in the UK?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lukegb:
I need to look into this, because Google has been giving me a new user ID every time I've reinstalled the app...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DanRyb:
This was the first time installing it on my Galaxy Nexus. I "installed" it numerous times on my Nexus S though and every time I had to sign back into it, it always gave me the same user ID/correct funds.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lukegb:
Interesting. This time it did actually give me the same ID.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gambiting:
Could someone tell me how to flash this thing? I have clockwork mode but the ""flash zip from sd card" shows me some weird layout of folders..

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mobilehavoc:
Is there any chance an APK will be released that will be installed on a stock ROM? I really don't want to root just to do this since it'll wipe my phone and I'll have to start over also want to keep the phone stock for a bit.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mikecoffee:
I think you will need to wait for google with out root ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Evostance:
The only way I see that working is if Google release it.

You need to either flash this after doing a wipe or by modifying.

The only was I can see you managing to do this is if you unlock the bootloader (which will wipe your phone anyway), then boot into CWM (not flash) and then install the zip.

Then when you reboot your phone, CWM will be gone and you should get a stock ROM with Wallet installed.

No idea if that would work though
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lpasq:
flashed zip after flashing Ir3 and all seems well. $10 free cash available. unable to "add funds" though.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] atmasphere:
I'm in clockworkmod recovery ... wiped full data and then installed the wallet zip (1.1r41v8) and then fixed permissions ... when I load up I am getting the permissions error. Am I missing something here? Love to get this working!

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] NPS_CA:
r38v5 to r41v8 Upgrade

Had r38v5 running fine on stock ITL41F (rooted) and upgraded r41v8

Didn't wipe...

Steps were perfect, did the packages.xml change BEFORE I flashed the zip - DID NOT run Fix Permissions

On reboot no FC's no issues, Wallet just worked fine. All other apps were fine too.

Do a Nandroid backup in case folks
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] texascrane:
I tried both packages and am having the same problem with each of them. Google wallet works just fine, but when booting it spends a minute or so "optimizing" the applications.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] HandOfReform:
Alright quick update, I'm on ICL53F (LTE OTA from today), just tried to install r41v8, I did it originally by fixing that xml data, however on reboot, I could not launch it just got constant FC's. So I factory data reset, and flashed it and fixed perms, this time I have launched it signed up for it and signed up for the prepaid card, that was about 20 minutes ago and it's still doing the verifying with Money Network thing. Beyond that, it's started force closing quite a bit at this point, if I leave it on screen it will be FC'ed within the minute...anyone got any sort of fix?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Man_Utd:
I'm getting this error as well.

Did you ever have GW working?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] leyvatron:
Yes.... had it working before.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Couchment:
Running 4.0.2, after much trouble with CWM uninstalling itself I fixed the packages.xml, flashed the google wallet package, fixed permissions and now in boot it will always optimize applications and google wallet will force close.

Not working for me.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] phantomevo77:
Mines working just fine. All I did was wipe data and cache and dalvik. Flashed the zip and rebooted. Took about 5-10 for Google to activate my prepaid card but its on there and $10 richer!

I am loving this phone... who else?? :-)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] takaides:
I have the LTE Galaxy Nexus running (mostly) stock at 4.0.2.

I have OEM unlocked the bootloader, booted a unlocked .img to gain root, flashed CWM Recovery, and then followed the instructions in the first post. Though I did run 'fix permissions' once after pushing the 'packages.xml' file. I did not have to mess with recovery-from-boot.p or whichever file others were .bak-ing.

Upon reboot, I got the initial "Optimizing applications" text, but upon starting up I've experienced no additional FCs (DroidLight autoinstalled and apparently doesn't like running on either the GN, ICS, or both... so it FCs, but nothing else has). Additionally, I opened Wallet, and added a Google GiftCard, upon the completion of which I was given $10 credit (as expected). I then added an additional $20 from a Visa card.

Foolishly,

I have not yet tested it to see if it actually works (can be used for payments)

, or if I wasted the $20, but I didn't feel like making a run out to CVS at 2 am just to buy a sprite or something. Tomorrow (/in a few hours, after I get some sleep), I plan to hit up a McDonald's or CVS, as my only options seem to be those, PetCo, BP Gas stations, or a really nice women's clothing boutique (of which, I have no need to go there as I don't dress in drag, or wear nice clothes for that matter [how I tend to ramble late at night]).

For those of you who need to find places to test out purchases, Mastercard has a nifty app called PayPass Locator in Android Market (for free) that shows stores that accept payments via paypass as waypoints on a map.

It should be noted, in my area, various chains are not listed as supporting paypass transactions, while those same chains in other states do (Sheetz is one such example, not listed as supported in my state, but it is in PA, a few states away).

So, Long story short; I have an LTE Galaxy Nexus running 4.0.2, and I think that I did successfully get Google Wallet installed and configured correctly, without wiping data (after 'oem unlock'). Hope that helps with some of the confusion out there.

Thank you for confirming this is the sum of our knowledge on known issues to date.

I only have one follow-up question I hope someone can answer. Will resetting wallet from within the app and then flashing and reinstalling cause you to lose pre-paid funds?

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Flukester69:
Let me get this right, the app is blocked from people using it because it has security holes and yet everyone is jumping on trying to get it working on their phones. I guess some people are just asking for their cards to be used by others. Why not just wait until the app/wallet is available and most importantly 'secure'?

Why would my carrier block being able to use a wallet app? Maybe if they were going to offer some alternative method, which I doubt.. then I came across this.

Not something I am going to risk putting my plastic into if I don't live in the US.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MMcCraryNJ:
Like the post above me says, it's not being blocked because of security holes. It's being blocked because certain carriers wished to withhold it from the Market. And I wouldn't even call it being "blocked", because you can just sideload the .apk and install with no issues on any Galaxy Nexus with any carrier. So essentially, nothing is being "blocked", just hidden from the market.

So, be sure to understand what you're talking about before you stand up on your soap box and judge everyone for using it. Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] crackers8199:
Yes, I'm sure. I use about 10 root required apps on a daily basis.

As a heads up, the workaround to install it by visiting the app page on your phone is working again, as it gives your phone the option to open it in the Play market.

So I use but market enabler to set it to US tmobile.

But after a while wallet wallet won't work and I have to use market enabler again.

I don't restart the phone. If I turn off the screen then use kt again after a while, I will have to reuse market enabler or google wallet will give the error and not work.

Any ideas ?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pharpe:
False. It is blocked in the market for some carriers because they have a competing app they they will be releasing. The security issue was a completely different matter dealing with prepaid card. It has been fixed and cards have been restored.

It is available and secure. Google is not supporting on rooted phones because of the potential of other apps not being secure and compromising your phone. That has nothing to do with the Wallet app itself.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Flukester69:
Makes sense that's why it says the application is blocked in my country when I run it without market enabler. Got ya, guess i better get on my high horse since the quotes I posted are from my provider/carrier and media.

Sorry my carrier is not blocking it or they are lying to me in my face.
