Latest remarks from Google Wallet

wallet-support@google.com

3:55 PM (1 hour ago)

to me

Hi ,

Apologies for the confusion, we were given the impression that this was a fix on the back-end that meant you wouldn't require to perform a manual update. Unfortunately, when asking for further information, the team has confirmed that it will need a manual update. Unfortunately, due to the holiday season and complexity of the issue, it may be a few weeks before this is pushed out.

I'm terribly sorry about the inconvenience this has caused you and the amount of back and forth it has taken to get to what isn't really an immediate solution. If you would like to continue to use Google Wallet, we suggest you try using a different SIM card, one that does not contain a secure element.

I'm also happy to keep track of this issue and send you an email as soon as it's resolved so you can use the application with your current setup.

Thanks

Fred

Thanks Fred,

I am a bit confused. I didn't receive any pushed fixed (was that with t-mobile or Google?). I did do as you asked and went to the local CVS and received the same error. I will do it again, and try another store tomorrow.

Well since my replacement has arrived I have a chance to see if it is hardware related. I also think I may try another sim and cut it down to see if these micro sim cards do have an additional secure element even without have an "ISIS" brand.

Thanks gr8c0p. Let us know if you know if you have better luck with either the new Nexus 4 or a cut-down sim card.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jim13x:
Progress... sort of

Another update: This time I tried using my N4 w/o a SIM (using wifi). I still get the 'Reader detected. Your last tap may not have been successful'' message, but the purchase went through! Next I will try the N4 with the SIM again, just to see what happens.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mancur:
Wow. Interesting. Does your sim say ISIS on it?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gotzaDroid:
You're not alone. I'm on att and I've been having the same issue. I got one purchase to go through at Walgreens, but failed attempts at Meijer, Toys R Us and McDonalds. You look like a fool when the dumb thing doesn't work.... I'm not saying it doesn't have anything to do with ISIS, but there is a software/server issue as well... It's a shame as I was really looking forward to this feature.

Edit:

Just to add, I went to Walgreens again and it worked, so it's got to be something more software related... Let's hope for that update.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mobilehavoc:
This is definitely to do with ISIS. ISIS SIMs have a Secure Element on the SIM itself which is not compatible with Google Wallet. I have a Nexus 4 that works perfectly with both an ATT and T-Mobile SIM that are a few months old at least and definitely don't have ISIS
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jim13x:
No, the SIM does not say ISIS. I'm in the DC area FWIW.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] furlonium:
I put in my request for a replacement N4 today. Don't know why GW would work once then never get past the "Setting up Wallet, this may take up to 5 minutes." screen.

Tried switching micro SIMs, too. On Tmo. Not in an ISIS test market. Even with no SIM, GW is broken.

Seems like a large number of us are pretty pissed atm.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hern1989:
I used my rooted nexus 4 to pay at the store the other day. No problems at all.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mobilehavoc:
It doesn't matter if you're in a test market, I'm assuming most new TMo and ATT sims have the secure element in prep. Its not the fault of the phone its the sim. When you get your replacement don't put a sim in and setup gw. Then make sure you try it without sim. I'm guessing when you put the sim in it might cause issues.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ericshmerick:
Regardless of what market you are in, an ISIS capable SIM disables Google Wallet period.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jim13x:
Update: I don't know why, but Wallet works on my Nexus 4 now. I make an effort to hold it on the reader longer, my GNex did not seem to require that but the N4 does. Otherwise I didn't do anything else to make it work.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Freshly_Snipes:
I made another thread and never saw this one..But I'll just copy and paste what I wrote anyway. I read the entire thread and I do NOT have any ISIS insignia on any of my 3 new sims from T-Mo. They are however ISIS capable with a secure element. I am in Atlanta.

Here's what the Google Wallet Setup issue will look like for those trying to figure it out.

From my original post in "General"

Driving in 21 degree weather in Atlanta and realize my car is drifting to the right. Pull over see flat tire and nail in it. Get to gas station to air up and head to 24hr tire repair shop. Walmart has NFC air machine. Get ready to use NFC and realized I switched Nexus 4's today. (I have 2 N4's) and it wouldn't let me set the card up.

Google wallet goes through normal setup, get email saying I added new device. Application shows my usual debit card I use by default. Says click to setup card for use. Click card and after about 3 minutes of spinning I get an error. Error read "Error adding card". So I assumed it was just for the moment. Walked to attendant and got change to use air pump.

I get home to setup again and got the same error 4 times. So I called "Google Wallet support" and they told my basically "AT&T and T-Mobile have integrated an NFC chip in the new micro and mini sim cards that interferes with Wallet setup and NFC possibly but definitely Wallet support on nexus 4 devices on both carriers." He stated that the "Google Wallet Technical Support Team are aware of this issue and they've received floods of calls today concerning this and are working to fix the issue as soon as possible." Apparently T-Mobile & AT&T activated the beginning stages of ISIS in a test this week and whatever they did screwed Wallet from being set up properly. He is unaware if it affects those already set up.

I am really upset because the card portion of the air machine was obstructed so I couldn't slide my card properly and I didn't have change. The one time NFC was the only option and it didn't work.

So this is just a heads up for all of you so you won't be in a similar situation as I was. I think it's sneaky and underhanded for T-Mobile to do this and we should at the LEAST have been notified that they were activating or even including NFC in the newer SIM cards.

It works fine for me... yes it is the unlocked phone therefore, it would work.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thos25:
I usually enter my pin before I tap the phone. Never have a problem. I noticed on your earlier post you said you tap, get the pin screen, re-tap, then it fails. Try to enter pin first.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mancur:
Yes. I've tried entering the pin first as well as second. Same result.

Just curious, do you have a T-Mobile micro sim, or did you cut down a regular sim?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] didit70:
@Freshly_Snipes, can you go to settings, about in wallet and see what your secure element version says? Mine says " not present" but I'm not sure I have an Isis sim... Its the same sim I had in my g-nex that was cut down...

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AssassinFuze:
I'm having the same problem. I'm on an AT&T plan in the DC area. I originally set up my phone with an old SIM that I had cut down to fit the N4 and the setup worked fine, but I never really had anywhere to try it. I had some issues with service so I went and got a new microSIM from the AT&T store. I had opened and played with Google Wallet several times since, but never got to use it in store. I finally got the chance at a CVS the other day and it gave me the "Ask the cashier if it went through" prompt. It didn't go through... I thought maybe I was using it wrong and went home and looked it up. I tried it again the other day at Petco and I had the same problem. I recently did a "Force Stop" and cleared the data, but now I can't even set my GW up. This is frustrating. My replacement device should hopefully be waiting at my house today (I had some other issues with the phone), so I will try setup on that. I was really looking forward to using Google Wallet, and NFC sharing. I'm gonna be really pissed if ISIS disables that.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mancur:
UPDATE

My settings

T-Mobile

Micro sim straight from T-Mobile (does not say Isis)

Nexus 4

Tried NFC today at Rite-Aid and it worked flawlessly. Machine was labeled "Paypass".

So, I'm relieved that my NFC troubles at McDonald's are not due to a fundamental hardware problem on my end.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] didit70:
Yeah my friend's n4 says the same. No worries, I just rma'd mine. Should get the new one next week.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dc211:
I had the same problem as Freshly_Snipes did. Wallet did several different things like crash on opening, not allow me to add my card, never initialize. I was going to RMA the phone tomorrow thinking I had a hardware problem.

I'm not really sure what exactly fixed the problem but I've been flashing different Google stock images all morning. The one that got it working was to download JOP40C. Then I used the "flash-all" script and factory reset in the stock recovery.

Now I have a working Google Wallet. So for everyone that lost hope try it and see what you get.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] didit70:
Yeah, but what happens if you want to root... I don't want to stay stock but nothing worked when I had root... Difference is I flashed back to d and not c as you did... So is it 4.2.1 that's causing some issues, since you have it working on 4.2...
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dc211:
I went to JOP40D first and it still wasn't working (with or without SIM). Then I moved to everything stock to 4.2 (JOP40C) and it worked. I'm just glad I got it working once I'll be continuing to experiment.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] didit70:
So in your case it looks like the culprit is 4.2...
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dc211:
Just an update

I download the stock Google image JOP40C. Then I used the "flash-all" script and factory reset in the stock recovery. Then Google wallet worked

Rooted the phone - Google wallet still worked

Then I

1. Backed up Google wallet

2. Restored back up of CM10.1 - Google wallet started crashing, clearing data or reinstalling the app wouldn't solve anything.

3. Did a full wipe and fresh install of CM10.1 - Google wallet was still crashing, clearing data or reinstalling the app wouldn't solve anything.

4. Restored back up of Wallet from my JOP40C install and it worked! So now I have CM10.1 and Google wallet working for me.

---------- Post added at 05:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:00 PM ----------

It worked for me on stock JOP40C, then I updated to 4.2.1 over OTA and it still worked. So I dunno.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gotzaDroid:
I think I fixed mine being totally stock. After gong no where with Google wallet support, I took it upon myself to clear the data and cache Google wallet. I re-set up everything and stores that I'd get the error messages on when tapping the second time, now work.

I'm not saying that this will work for everyone, but it's easy to try and worth the try.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] didit70:
I think if it works on 4.2 and it ota's it will still work but if you go to set up wallet on 4.2.1 it fails... I'm gonna flash back to 4.2 and I'll report my results... My issue is my phone ota'd as soon as I turned it on...
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thos25:
Could be. I've used my galaxy nexus at McDonald's before without a problem. I never used my N4 there until today though. It didn't go through. I know the wallet and chip are working though because I used it at a vending machine a couple hours before it failed at McDonald's.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mancur:
Interesting. You know the Nexus 4 does use a different NFC chip than some previous phones, for example, it won't work with the Mifare NFC tags.

Maybe it has compatibility issues with some existing payment solutions...
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gotzaDroid:
Funny you say that, I was just reading on Google's FAQ for wallet and one of the answers to " why won't in store payments work" was about older readers in stores not being compatible.

I did a data reset and my wallet has been working at more places now, but I've still tried some real old looking readers that wallet won't even pick up (yes, the green light was on)

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] didit70:
OK, so I flashed back to 4.2 and wallet still didn't work... Guess I'll just wait for my rma to come in
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dc211:
Cool I'm glad it did. I was about to RMA my phone then after a bunch of expementing I found that the version that came with the JOP40D OTA worked on my phone. So it's only a software problem it seems.

I spent hours trying different things but that version works for me and I've used it to make 3 purchases without any problem. Everyone should give that version a shot.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Freshly_Snipes:
Too bad I can't delete wallet and try your fix. I'm all stock.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nixie2121:
How do you get a non Isis card? Everyone I talk to says they only have the one card...
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ericshmerick:
Call around and ask for a non-ISIS SIM? I did that initially (when I was back and forth between my N4 and Note2). I ended up finding one in a T-Mo store. They are free - never let them charge you for it (shady practice that corporate stores don't do). I ended up selling the N4 and got an ISIS SIM for my Note 2. Works great.

Anyway, you must be in an ISIS test market. Regular SIMs are out there, just look around.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] didit70:
wallet finally working

Like most, I was get the "device not ready" error. I also got the "secure element version: not present" error. Rooted and unrooted. Non-Isis sim. I contacted google wallet support through email and after a lot of back and forth, they got it working.:D I don't know what they did but there is a fix. Here is the response I got from them this morning;

Hello,

I apologize for the delayed response. There have been some new updates in regard to your issue. These steps should help in resolving the

issue. If you have already taken these steps, please do so again. Can you please reset the device? You can do this by navigating to app

Settings > Reset -OR-- by navigating to the Android system Settings >Apps > Wallet and select ‘Clear data'. Then, reset the app by logging

into wallet.google.com/manage, disable your device then set up your

account again.

If this does not solve the issue, please inform us so we can

troubleshoot further.

Now, I have run through these steps probably 30 times, with no success. I flashed back to stock and still nothing. That tells me that they have finally figured it out. Funny thing is I RMA'd my phone and the day that I got notice that my new device has shipped, they got wallet working. Anyway, thought I'd post for others who have probably been pulling their hair out trying to get a fix for the app. Help is on the way (probably)

Isis sim disables Google Wallet

Whole it is true that the Isis Sim disables Google wallet, this is not an anti competitive move. Issues and Google wallet work essentially the same except for 1 key difference. Google wallet uses the secure element on the phone. Isis uses a secure element on the special isis Sim card. Phones can not recognize 2 secure elements the presence of the Isis Sim card disables the secure element on the phone. The reason this is not anti competitive is that the carriers still provide non isis sim cards.

[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] cytherian:
I responded to the same problem reported in a different phone sub forum, but figured I'd add it here since the HTC Hero has a relatively slow processor and is ripe for running into it.

The problem:

Install a new launcher and configure it as desired

Reboot

Discover default launcher is no longer set

Manually specifying the new launcher again shows all widgets appearing as an error

I thought this undesirable behavior was due to partially corrupt system data. I installed another ROM, from scratch, rebuilt it to my specifications, then added a different launcher once again (different one this time). Rebooting resulted in the default lost and also all widgets showing with an "error loading widget" message in their place.

I finally figured out what was going on. It's because I had selected the option "move to SD card" as the default when installing applications. So, the launcher was on the SD card. Well, this creates a problem with timing, because the SD card is prepared a little later on in the boot process, after the required time to load the launcher. The result? Android draws up the default launcher. And for some reason, the older launcher ends up compromised with some of its default settings.

Once I moved my launcher app back to phone memory, the problem went away.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] panzerscope:
Hey guys ,

I have a 64gb SD card formatted to Fat 32 as exfat does not work properly. Unfortunately downloading large files will not work due to the fat32 limits. So my question is can android address NTFS correctly ?

I run CM10 with Siyah Kernel 1.8.

Thanks !
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] penguinjoe:
Have you tried using the phone itself to format the sd card? I would suspect it would put ext3/ext4 on it which does not have the fat32 limitations.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 9Lukas5:
The phone would use fat32 aswell as it's made default for the external sd. Also ext3/4 can only be used if you mount the card after every reboot by hand in the terminal/with a startup script => you can't use mtp to move files between pc and phone. I still wait that the cm team apploes the patchs that ext4 will be possible format to be used as on the internal sdcard

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] panzerscope:
Hmm that is a pity as I was hoping to be able to transfer larger files. I was looking into NTFS and using a mount app, but realised I would not be able to use the Backup features in recovery as it may not see the SD card . What a pain.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] panzerscope:
Actually is there a way to possibly format the SD card 1 partition FAT32 and the other NTFS ? Could the phone (S3) address two separate partitions ?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d3v:
I've been having this problem and its really ****ing me off. Tried allsorts. Currently using cm10 and tried NTFS mounted with paragon but the fs keeps corrupting and so I have to run chkdsk on it to repair it. Also it doesn't stay mounted. Tried 2 partitions under windows using acronis disk director, the second wouldn't mount under windows or be assigned a drive letter, so I'm guessing that's an SD limitation.

I'm just on fat32 at the minute via guiformat but if I play music from the SDcard it locks up and just stops playing and I have to reboot. Even did this in stock Sammy ROM as exfat. Also tried sd speed increase and tested my read and write speeds. These improved and I got decent speeds so I can't understand why this is happening. Its such a ****ty stupid issue that you just can't play music from a memory card on such a phone with all of these different combinations, its ridiculous.

in Contacts, some names don't show up, even in Search.

But if I search from the Phone app, they do.

Any idea why this is or how to fix?

If a contact is grouped in "My Contacts" on the gMail/Contacts page, then it will show up in any search of Contatcs on the phone.

Hi,

When you first open contacts,it asks where to get contacts from.

Phone,sim,google etc.

Make sure you tick or untick the ones you want.

If you tap the phone and feel a slight vibration in the phone (and may hear it), that is probably the vibrate motor.
