I know a lot of people are using CM7 to use wallet on devices but I was wondering since Google gives a warning about activation on the wallet setup if wiping and installing a ROM has any affect. I just got my Nexus S 4G today and want to CM7 but don't wanna lose Google Wallet that I put $50 on the pre-paid card.
google wallet is tied to your Google Account, im sure it'll carry over.
Wallet is tied to your device and account. You cannot activate multiple wallet accounts on a single device. I can confirm you can retrieve your account after a wipe or a completely different rom install.

Sucks you cannot activate multiple accounts on a single device. The way it read it sounded like it was multiple accounts at the same time. Which would be hard meaning you could never sell the device. I assume this means no signing up for a new Google account getting the 10 bucks and then signing in a different account. That part kinda sucks since I am using a dev account on my Nexus and would like to get use the service with my standard day to day gmail account.
It will carry over held my balance when I switched over to cm7 stable
I did the "if all else fails" in the googke wallet fix thread in the Dev section

You could sell the device just make sure it has a 0 balance on the prepaid card. Otherwise the person who buys your phone will likely take your balance. This may just apply to the free 10 dollars, I haven't tried adding money and then wiping, flashing new rom, and log into a different Google account yet.

That is my plan tonight once I get off work. Unlock it which in turn wipes it then see what happens after putting CM7 on.

For those that use the Google Prepaid card portion of Wallet, Google has disabled provisioning for the time being.

"Second, we also take concrete actions to help protect our users. For example, to address an issue that could have allowed unauthorized use of an existing prepaid card balance if someone recovered a lost phone without a screen lock, tonight we temporarily disabled provisioning of prepaid cards. We took this step as a precaution until we issue a permanent fix soon"
This means you cannot add funds to your Google prepaid card (I found out first hand this morning), and I assume you won't have access to any balance that is currently on the card (I haven't confirmed this yet as I don't have a large enough balance to try to make a purchase).
It appears that you can use your current pre-paid balance for making a purchase, but you can't add funds to the account until Google re-enables provisioning.
"Cannot contact bank" soo stupid.
Verizon is probably behind this!?!
Verizon is not behind it, Google is worried about the security of the app that's why it has disabled the functionality of adding new funds. That number you should see where it currently says "can not contact bank'' is suppose to be your card number (similar to a credit card number). I assume a fix should be pushed this week.

So now that Google disabled the Google Wallet prepaid card, how do we get our money back we put on it or have access to it.
I logged on to Google Wallet website and only my credit cards I setup show up, the prepaid card doesn't show up. I would think Google would allow you to see and manage that card from the website, but you can't.
What do you guys think of this situation?
I don't really need the money from the card now, but I would think Google should at least send an email to Google Wallet user explaining the situation with the security of the app and fate of our money.
Right there with you buddy. Its bunk.
I have about $20 invested in Wallet myself
I think you can still use the rest of the money on it but you just can't add anymore. I just used it on Friday.

Speak for yourself. At one point my card was still there but money bank would not verify so it said 0 when i actually did have money on there. Finally, my money<---- not card, is back.
Google re-enabled provisioning last night. All is back to normal again. You can recharge and add prepaid cards again.
But the people who reset their wallet app data during the non provision period are stuck waiting for google. Mine still says prepaid unavailable
When I first got my Nex7 I set it up including Google wallet. It setup my prepaid card and it was the same as on my Gnex and had the same balance. Last night I unlocked the boot loader on my Nex7 and rooted, left the stock Rom. Today I setup my wallet account again and its a new card number with a $10 balance.
I called money network and they told me there is no way I had my same card from my gnex on my Nex7 and that every device will had a different card number but it will be linked to the same email address. This just sounds weird to me.... so now I need to have 2 different wallet accounts and have to have two different balances? Is there a way to backup the app data from titanium backup from my gnex to my Nex7? I'd really like to have the same balance on both devices.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 2
My (perhaps limited) understanding is that you have one Wallet account with one balance but each device has its own card. No different to you and the missus having credit cards on the same account. The point being that each 'thing' you pay with must be able to be identified uniquely.
There is no need to backup your Google Prepaid card. It is tied to the device and each device has its own balance. You have one transaction history though.
If you were going to add money, beyond the $10 Google gave you, then I could see how it might be nice to have just one card. Maybe some day that can happen. Maybe around the same time they let you use whatever card you want.
Think of it like each device being a different debit card... pay with whichever card you like...

I'd be fine with that , but unfortunately it doesn't seem to work that way. There is two different balances. I did check my transaction history and it does show all my transactions from my phone. Weird. I really hope at some point google decide to come by in the balances for all devices.

I'm not sure what happens but I know I have seen a few threads on the gnex forums about "secure element" problems with the wallet app and the only fix is to replace the phone. This happened to a lot of people after flashing a Rom.
I'm just going to leave mine be and hope that one day they merge the balances.

I ordered the Nexus 7 and activated it today. When looking in the account I activated it on I see no mention of the $25 Play store gift card or the free movie and other stuff that should be included according to the product page. I looked at some other threads about this and they all said "it should be there" and I don't see it! I looked in Google Wallet and in my Purchase History in the Play Store and saw nothing! What am I missing? Or am I just a Bad Luck Brian that just doesn't get the gift card?
Thanks.
You don't get the freebies until you physically have the device in your hands and activate it.

Same here. I received the email within seconds of activating the device. You sure you actually don't have it? Check your balance at the play store and see. The email may have gone to your spam box. Just a thought.
The other thing is - did you get yours from the play store or a 3rd party? The cynic in me wonders whether someone purchased it, returned it, and Google play sees that device as already having received the freebies.

I bought mine from staples and I unboxed it, signed into google, saw the credit email in my gmail inbox, then unlocked and rooted and wiped the hell out of it and flashed a custom rom and kernel.
I thought maybe I wasn't going to get the other freebies because I searched google play store and they weren't free. But it was user error, I just had to install the specific apps for google magazines and google movies and books.

It'll send the credit and extras to the first account you set up. I have two, my old one one for apps, and a newer one one for my gmail and music. I set up my email/music first when I got the N7 and it gave the credit to that.
Also, pretend like you're going to buy something and when it goes to the choosing payment section look in the drop down for the $25 credit.

I tried this and the gift card did not appear on the drop down. Nor can I find my freebies anywhere besides in the email mention from Google. I would like to mention I had changed my email address a few days prior to ordering Nexus 7 and all of the order emails including the one mentioning the gift card arrived in the old inbox.
Just tried changing the email back and looking in Google Play but still can't find the goodies or the giftcard so I changed back the email.
You have a really good reason to call customer support.
They will probably enjoy a call from someone they can help, and is not yelling at them.
Should be easily fixable.
He said to do a factory restore. Ugh, I just got this thing all set up!
Now that all my data is gone and lost, I got the email saying I got the giftcard!

Unless they fixed it you can get the $25 on multiple accounts from 1 device. I got two other people $25 dollar credits just from letting them sign in on my device so someone else getting the freebies isn't possible. Neither is getting multiple credits on one account even if you sign on two different devices. Also you have to have a credit card tied to your Google account to get the $25 credit

Factory Data Reset worked for me also
I am glad I found this post. I was getting aggravated that I could not get my credit.
The Factory Data Reset worked for me also. Once I activated it the credit was there automatically.
Now to reload all my apps, music, and books again.
But it was worth.
You guys should have just made a backup with the Nexus Toolkit. :/

I got my nexus 7 as a gift. When I activated it I didn't get the credit or the other stuff. I did the factory reset (several times actually) but to no avail. When I go to buy an app, there is an 'add card for $25' option which does nothing when I add cards. I tried deleting all my cards, doing a factory reset and none of that made a difference either. I tried calling customer support a couple days ago and he had to escalate since he didn't know how to fix it. I'm still waiting to hear back.

I call the bank to verify is everything was ok and they told me that there's nothing to prevent the card for been charged, everything is ok in their systems and I have to comunicate with a Google officer to check what happends.
I dont know why this happends because I already bought an Nexus 5 long time ago with the same account, credit card, and using the same address.
Is kinda stupid you have to insist to make a purchase.

Remove the card from your wallet account and add it back again,then try ordering. That's what worked for me.

I don't think the Nexus phones are available for purchase yet in the Dominican Republic. Either Google recognizes you are on a VPN, or they see you are international trying to use a US-based card. Either way, I am happy to see Google being proactive with security.

As i said, I bought the Nexus 5 with the same account, card and country based.
Google is not being proactive with security if this "proactivity" doesn't allow you to make a purchase.
Banks already has their own security systems, so there's no reason why Google should be that kind of strict in payments options. They're losing business opportunities.
Ill figure out the way to buy it, then, Il post the solution. But I'm sure that I going to get it.
Even i ordered from outside the US and faced this issue several times. Try what i said.
