I had a real brainless clerk at a gas station convenience store demand to see a photo ID (violation of Mastercard merchant agreement) and sign the receipt. I tried explaining it was a contactless transaction and no signature was needed. He insisted on the ID. The receipt had printed out by this time so I just reached over, grabbed it and said the processor doesn't even want a signature. I turned and walked out with him yelling at me about calling the cops. I stood on the corner for half an hour for my bus to come and never heard anything further.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] _tru_:
i could only imagine if he actually did call the cops "911 what's your emergency?" "this guy just did something with his phone connecting to my register and took off!"

Hiya,

I tried to use it at a Walgreens and could not get it to work. The cashier did look at me funny . I told her what I was trying to do and she had no idea lol. I sure hope more people get used to this. I eventually got it to work. I had to tap it 4 times.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] om4:
Just got an email saying they are discontinuing wallet prepaid cards since you can now use any card. How am I supposed to hide guilty purchases from the gf now lol I was an idiot for allowing joint checking haha
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] edboston:
Does GW work with the prepaid cards or like the green dot visa cards? You could always go open another checking account.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] om4:
It should work with all cards now, I was just kind of whining lol
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] scott_0:
used it for the first time today, wife and I had Mcdonalds for breakfast, had to tap it a few times before it took but the lady at the register seemed to have seen it before because she had no odd reaction lol
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] _tru_:
re-loadable prepaid cards? not that i have any experience in that area :P
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] om4:
Lol cash cards are a rip off these days, there's a charge for reloading them, charge for using them, a charge for transfers and a charge for atms, like I said I was really just whining, it was nice to make spontaneous (and incredibly stupid) purchases with out her catching me lol Bought a table saw once because it was on sale and marked down twice, only used it 5 times since I bought it
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Anthonicia:
That email also said if u reset wallet after Sept 17 then the prepaid balance won't transfer. So, if u flash roms a lot then go ahead and use the prepaid balance.

It also said that on October 17 they will start charging a $2 a month maintenance fee if u don't use it. That's up from 180 days.

Guess they want people to start using it more to pay off their huge startup cost of this. Plus theyre probly getting sick of people getting $10 everytime they reset their phone and use a different google account for wallet. Doesn't do it now, but if u change esn's u get another $10 for activating.

LMAO! It's better at like 3:30 a.m. after trying to get all the bugs ironed out and in your pajamas!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] rjeii2:
Same here, I am still not confident enough to go into a store that takes paypass without my wallet. I tried it at McDonalds and ended up looking like a total douche. Had a nice long line behind me and the damn thing would not register my phone, the poor old lady behind the register didn't say anything as I bashed my phone off the keypad's receiver but I could tell she thought I was nuts. Ended up pulling the card out and payed like a normal human. I do want to go back and try it on the other register one day or another store cuz I am sure it was the receiver not working.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] rjeii2:
To be honest, I find it easier to open the app and unlock it before getting to the register. This way you only have to tap once and wait for a receipt. Tapping at the home screen requires you to unlock and tap again.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] vantige:
Just have the phone unlocked.

That's awesome man. My sheetz has none of that. But they originally let u use your sheetz card to pump first pay later until too many jackasses abused it stealing gas.

I ended up getting charged for underage drinking which I of course deny, but get base restrictions and half pay for 2 months. That sucks bad when you only get paid $300 every 2 week's.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] KEYofR:
Around here (NJ):

Walgreens

Has the terminals but they don't actually work.

Wegmans

It works but the menus and prompts on the terminal are completely unclear, misleading even. The main thing is you have to select CREDIT, then tap. It's like a 3 step process and that's when you actually get it right and the cashier doesn't have to clear and reset the terminal to try again. It's actually more steps than using a regular card. But they now have an attached liquor store which is handy because I just loaded up the prepaid card to over $200 the day before they announced they're killing them, and it's hard to spend $200 on chips and seltzer at QuickCheck!

QuickCheck

Works, no issues.

Hess / On The Go

Works, no issues.

Just the convenience store inside, not for gas, at least not at the pumps. In NJ you are not allowed to pump your own gas, so even if the pumps had new terminals, you'd have to give your $600 fragile phone to the attendant who is asleep, in a hurry, freezing fingers in gloves.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] om4:
Over here people get passed and scream if you even check the time standing by a pump, I can't help but wonder what their reaction would be if pumps had an NFC terminal attached lol

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] msimindlessmsi2:
I know this is an old thread, but i figured i would share my experience as i use wallet all the time.

You can use it anywhere paypass is accepted.

It works best if you open the app, enter your pin and then scan. You can set the timeout, so i usually unlock it way in advance.

The most common reason you will have an issue is the clerk being a moron. They have to hit the credit/debit button on their terminal before the payment can go through. If the scanner scans and your phone says unsuccessful, this is likely the problem. Tell them to hit the credit button.

Yes i hand my phone through the window at mcdonalds all the time. They have yet to drop it. I wouldnt care much anyway. I rock my phone naked, and it became so damaged that i sanded and polished it. So now its all chrome and looks cool as ****. If it gets banged up, ill just sand it again/replace the screen.

Sorry for any grammar/puncuation issues. I am drunk as **** right now. Google wallet is the **** and is great for extracting disappointing facial expressions from iphone using hipster ****heads.
[Galaxy S III General] ABR2704:
I was wondering since the drivers are practically there, a WebOS Port may be more possible then Windows Phone.

The new Open WebOS Platform is 100% Open Source and gives the open source world a new breath of life.

I have inquired already with HP and am waiting a response on the availability of hardware specific drivers.

Maybe we could be onto something new here....

I WILL POST THERE RESPONSE HERE TOMORROW
[Galaxy S III General] sRDennyCrane:
Just curious... but WHY would you prefer WebOS over ICS and soon JB? I've used WebOS on the HP TouchPad and found it clunky and lacking. Is it just for the challenge? In fact, I know 3 people with TouchPads and they've all loaded Android on instead of the WebOS that it came with. They're thrilled.
[Galaxy S III General] unfnknblvbl:
I'm interested in running WebOS on one of my phones or tablets just to try something different without having to by something new..
[Galaxy S III General] SkzBR:
I had the HP Touchpad and i can say: when you know android userspace with many apps and possibilities, you'll never boot within WebOS again.

WebOS is beaultiful, fast on some situations, but you can't use it as a daily driver, lack of apps and tools, and specially, support.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] upndwn4par:
Sounds cool. Thanks! I will try this. Can this install files in places other than /system, like /data?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] sendust7:
I think so, as long as busybox exists there :)

If you want to run it directly on a ROM instead of on CWM, you may need to either create a "/tmp" directory (or symlink to it) or modify the script to access the ROM's temp directory path, e.g. /data/tmp or /osh/tmp

Actually I think it is helpful to keep the generator inside the ROM busybox directory in case any of the symlinks get lost or corrupted. Then we wouldn't necessarily have to reinstall busybox :D
[Atrix 4G Android Development] upndwn4par:
I've never used any of the crazy stuff you work on (this may be the first), but I'm really glad you are doing it. :)
[Atrix 4G Android Development] NFHimself:
Uhm, "busybox --install ." works too, you just need to use a proper busybox build.

First off I searched, and have tried everything on forum before you say do a search

My kid bricked her Sidekick 4g

I tried to ODIN about 4 different Tars they all say they pass but it then boots into the Android recovery and says installing some. When i click reboot phone it turns phone .

Everytime i odin it reboots to a recovery. Is there any way I can get this phone to boot back to the original rom?

all the links I have either don't exist any more, or fail. Please advice

You said you've tried everything -- without attacking you I don't exactly believe this. ODIN isn't the ONLY way to "ODIN" or restore to factory default.

I used one of these for my I9000 and was pleasantly surprised with it. I might just go for this one for my I9300.

[Galaxy S III Accessories] radoslavp:
Have the battery from about a month.

I've got to admit it is nothing special ... from my experience it gives just a few more hours stand by time.

I'm using 2G mode / full sync and with the stock battery I got around 4 days of stand by time ... after change of battery it is something like 4 days and 6 hours stand by.

If you play with your phone or talk a lot you won't notice the extra mAh IMHO.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] kevz65:
Thanks. Probably no point in getting this then.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] vinz3nt:
Ok maybe nothing special. I replaced my defective one in my SGS1, it's € 12,30 which is about 3 times cheaper than an original. But this battery is actually 1800 mAh and I get about a day extra standby in normal use and about half a day extra in heavy use. That's special enough for me and still going strong after 8 months.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Dropshots:
Well, compared to the original it is only an increase of about 14%.. 2400 mAh instead of 2100 mAh, so you should not expect miracles to happen. It will certainly give you some extra hours, so you'll notice only a difference if you frequently need those few hours more.

I myself have a polarcell for my i9000 (sgs), which offers 20% more than the original and I must say, it really does make a difference!

I personally like most that there is a NFC version besides a version without NFC.

I was wondering about the performance of the NFC antenna, did anyone test this already?

Just received this today:

http://www.amazon.com/i-Blason-Sams...1347054475&sr=1-1&keywords=i-blason+note+10.1

Good construction - Note 10.1 sits very securely in it. A little tough to close the first few times (snug), but it's getting easier. 3 levels of angle for stand. Cut-out for the camera and pen are perfect. Only issue is because of the pen cut-out, if you happen to drop it on that corner, you could have a problem.

Very good, secure case for the money.
