According to the android market store it is not compatible.

I know that it requires 2.3.7, but I'm wondering if you need certain hardware aspects too. If the version of Android is the only thing, then most of us can put an ICS ROM on there and be good to go.

I wish I could answer that for you with actual personal hands-on knowledge myself, but he below is what google has to says is what your phone needs to have for it to work for you.
"Eligible Phones
Google Wallet with tap and pay requires an NFC-enabled Android phone with a Secure Element chip running Gingerbread Android operating system 2.3.7 or equivalent. The first phone capable of running Google Wallet with all of these cutting-edge features is the Nexus S 4G on Sprint."
This link is a list of NFC enabled phones.
http://www.nfcworld.com/nfc-phones-list/#soon
According to that list I do not see the MT4G.
You need a NFC chip (Near Field Communication). The first smartphone to have one was the Galaxy Nexus S, released late last year, so no phones that are older than 4Q 2011 will have this capability.

Still wont work. According to the article the Phone needs to have a plastic sd card slot, therefore cannot be metal. In which the MT4G the are metal.

Well that is just equipping it with an external nfc chip, which i did not know was possible, but that is pretty impractical..what, choose between not having external storage at all, or swapping out the external storage when needed? What a pita..just get your damn credit card out of your wallet.
That might work on a device that has more internal storage than the glacier, but with only a few gigs internal replacing your external with this seems pointless.
I wasn't wrong..without an nfc it isn't possible
Edit: my bad, there is 8gb on the card..not enough for me though..maybe there are new ones with 16..
Edit 2: except that these devices have been delayed over and over, now coming 2Q 2012 supposedly, so as of right now, there is no way to get Google wallet to work on a phone without an equipped nfc chip.

mistery
PLEASE let this alleged hardware issue be the addition of a trackball/trackpad and a better casing than cheap plastic that gizmodo reported.
Let this be a standalone phone and not a Galaxy S with Stock Android.
i think i read on giz that it will be plastic. think i may wait for nexus 3

word...
Google needs some damn designers...lol. People with vision...the Nexus S/2 should looked like the HTC ONE concept some design student mocked up...with a few additions for usability.
You guys know Google doesnt' actually design phones right?
They basically call up sony/htc/apple/samsung and ask what new platforms/devices they have coming up. The respective companies show them a line up, google bids on them, and then they tweak it slightly (color/finish/very minor hw changes).
Cool, so rumour was true I hope it will be released soon...
I really hope it lives up to the nexus name. Not just a galaxy-S running stock android with an unlockable bootloader...
yay! coming soon with Gingerbread. 4 inch screen with trackball please.

The Nexy looks a way lot better than this. Atleast that's my opinion.
just saw this new on phonearena... two more months for a new version of android and we dont even have a beta ROM of gingerbread xD
http://www.phonearena.com/news/Honeycomb-now-due-for-February-launch-as-Android-2.4_id15400
Maybe Honeycomb was design specifically with tablets/higher res devices in mind?
I agree. Honeycomb was mentioned as being tablet centric. I don't think there will be much that will affect the phone side. I think that's the big reason they're making it a 2.4 release instead of 3.0. That and I think it is also to get more android tablets out before the iPad 2 is released. That's my theory.
Sent from my T-Mobile myTouch 3G Slide using XDA App
I hope thats the reason... otherwise i will start hating my slide real bad xD
Well look at it this way. T-Mo/HTC can Skip over Gingerbread and go to Honeycomb since the time difference between 2.3 and 2.4 are so short.

If honeycomb is being designed with Tablets in mind, there'd be no reason to put it on a phone. Screen sizes won't match at all.

True but it all depends on what features Google adds in addition to tablet support.
I see Honeycomb as adding Major Support for Tablets. If it was just an update only for Tablets they probably wouldn't given it a codename. Just left it Gingerbread but 2.4. Again just my theory.
i hope 2.4 does end up tablet centric, otherwise it 2.3 would be a waste if time.
MMMM... Honeycomb !

Do you guys think this will be a market update or software update since the Nexus S is getting it in 2.3.4?
Maybe Samsung is waiting until then to give us official Gingerbread?
Thoughts?
Looks to me like Google is only going to do it on 2.3 phones, with 2.3 already percolating, we Epic users shouldn't have to wait too long.
"Google Talk with video and voice chat will gradually roll out to Nexus S devices in the next few weeks as part of the Android 2.3.4 over-the-air update and will launch on other Android 2.3+ devices in the future," Google explained in a blog post, which also offers a screenshot and demo video.

Hopefully someone can do something with this . Google talk with video presumably integrates better with the android os than other alternatives, so it makes sense Google is integrating it into 2.3 instead of back supporting 2.2... that said, only the stock or "developer" android phones like nexus one and nexus s will be getting these right now...

Video calling framework has actually been built into Android since at least 2.1. If you check our hidden menus, there are all kinds of options for it, except the part that actually lets you make a video call.
I'd also wager that it'll pretty seamlessly interface with FaceTime since Gizmo5 pretty much did what FaceTime did using the same protocols and standards, except it was doing it back in '06.
So, i'm seeing that the SII has a working version of B2G. Would it be possible to make it work on the Note too?
(For the noobs, B2G is not Android. It's Mozilla's HTML-based OS)
- Galaxy SII Thread
- Mozilla's own tutorial on how to boot B2G on the SII

I'll second interest in this - I love Mozilla and I think this sort of an operating system is a good future to aim for, if a little ahead of its time right now. I hope we eventually see this brought to the Note.

Yes, it is possible, we had to replace/add some drivers, but Kernel isn't very phone-specific

I think i'd pull it, but i don't have enough power to do it. Minimum PC requirements are 4GB RAM and 64-bit Ubuntu 11.10. I have 2GB and 32-bit.
Sad panda indeed.

You could compile with less power, it only takes (a little to a lot) more time to compile depending on your configuration

Good luck! :>
any news here?
I've read on a German newspaper the only thing to do for a port is extract needed (shouldn't be as much, since it works for S2 and many drivers are shared - anyone knows more about the other drivers?) drivers and add them to the boot-2-gecko project before compiling it like in https://developer.mozilla.org/en/Mozilla/Boot_to_Gecko/Building_B2G_for_Samsung_Galaxy_S2
I sold a batch to a lot of members here and I don't have enough time to do more. Sadly I am still getting a lot of requests!
So, my friend is trying something new and would like to hook xda up.
I went ahead and setup an amazon account and amazon will handle everything including Prime shipping!

I just bought one of these from another location and unfortunately the iPhone 5 nano sim is still to small for the smallest adapter. Anyone know of a fix or work arounds?
Hmm weird. All 5 of ours work perfectly. A few of us use the micro adapter to use with a 4S and S3 and a few use the mini adapter to use a dummy phone while playing sports.

That is weird, when I put my nano sim from my Verizon iPhone 5 it is smaller than the opening on the Noosy adapter and I can move the sim around in a circle
