I got my fourth tablet after doing the replacement game, and was ecstatic that it is seemingly perfect. However I had trouble using Google wallet and was worried that just my luck, it didn't work on this tablet.
I got the one I was sending back to Google out of the box, and was able to successfully beam something to the other one. That is the same nfc technology that wallet uses, right? Does that mean that it could have just been the register where I tried it, and most likely my nfc works since I was able to beam? Thanks in advance...

That's correct. I've noticed that the best place for contact is in the upper left corner close to the 'N' in 'Nexus'.

I got my $10 prepaid Google wallet for free. Has any one know how to use it? Does it require WiFi connection?

Yes, you need and Internet Connection and NFC enabled on your Nexus 7 and just tap and pay with your Tablet!
You actually don't need an internet connection.
To the OP. There should be a white bar on the bottom of the app that leads to a tutorial.

After setting up google wallet, enabling nfc and being connected to wifi, and fallowing the tut included. I scan my nexus 7 and nothing happens...
Although it used to run, after updating, I get the message, "wallet is not supported on your device or on your carrier".
I am rooted but I wouldn't think that should matter.

From the Google Wallet FAQ:
Can or should I install Google Wallet on a rooted phone?
No, we do not support Google Wallet on rooted phones.

So maybe it really is because you are rooted...

Maybe. But the same exact thing is happening on my HTC EVO LTE. It's rooted also, but Wallet ran on it before this update. First it didn't work. Then they updated it and it did work. Then they updated it and it didn't. Then it did. Now it doesn't again.
You know what keeps working? My actual plastic credit cards!

I just bought dinner at Jack in the Box literally four minutes ago using Google Wallet with my rooted Nexus 7. It had the unsupported device warning, but it didn't matter; it still worked.

Can anybody tell me some of the major companies who now have the ability to take payments from Google Wallet?
I saw a couple of posts where people they said they used Google Wallet at places like McDonalds and Jack n the Box, which made me admittedly chuckle a bit, as I pictured somebody rolling up to the drive-thru window and handing the cashier their tablet. Obviously they paid inside, but what are some other major places that support it? It's almost 3am and I want to drive to a 24/7 Walmart and brandish my Nexus 7 at the cashier when they give me the total and NFC their ass.

I don't know about your area, but the Jack in the Boxes in my area (Kirkland, WA) all have PayPass terminals hanging on the outside, no drive-thru person has to get their hands on my tablet.

I love this issuse. However, it's risky
Search for MasterCard Pay pass Locator in the store. That will sow you the places near you that accept Google wallet.

To clarify for the OP, you need an internet connection to select your card in Wallet, but as long as you have already selected one, it will work without as connection; you just can't change cards, for instance, without an internet connection.

One thing I just found out that I'm disappointed over in regards to Jack in the Box, is that the Kirkland, WA (Totem Lake) location's PayPass terminal doesn't have the chip turned on in the drive-thru, only the ones inside are on. I ate there last night, but when getting lunch today via the drive-thru, it doesn't work. The guy in the window also said the Redmond, WA location's drive-thru PayPass terminal isn't turned on, either. Let's all email Jack in the Box to get them fixed/turned on!

Hi all,
Since Google has made the big announce in the past few days, about now supporting all credit cards, I decided to activate it.
But never realized that if you have a rooted device it won't let you use it to protect you.
I get that.
But is there a workaround for this?
Thanks
Rob

You can still use Wallet, the app will just say Unsupported Device because you're rooted. I use Wallet all the time on my rooted Galaxy Nexus.

No, at least not for everybody.
I have both my Nexus 7 and HTC EVO LTE rooted, and when I attempt to run Wallet, I get a message "Sorry, wallet isn't yet available on your device or in your country".
Before this update, wallet ran on both devices. I never got the chance to actually use it, but the app ran. Now it won't even open.

I've used it twice and I am rooted without any issues.
Well, I got my replacement Nexus 7 today, it's the new batch, no lift anymore. It's flawless now.
Since this one is fine, I think I'll root it. But I've heard that Google Wallet doesn't work with root with the newest update.
Can someone explain?

Rooted here on the glazed rom and I can confirm that GW works. Also with the latest update (the one where you can add ANY of your credit cards) You'll get a "unsupported device" notification on the app, but that's a disclaimer. GW still works. I used it twice.
I can confirm it works since I've drained my Gift Card already... several times over by now too.
If you don't have a phone with NFC, the N7 works, but it is a little clunky since it is a bigger device. I prefer to use my phone when making purchases, but now that Wallet supports most credit cards through, I like having the option and not having to rely on the Gift Cards.

No lift for the new batch? Did i miss something?
I have nexus 7 rooted with stick and g-wallet is not working? Why isn't mine good?
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
which batch? I got c80 from gamestop, and while it feels flawles, I have a 0.1-0.2mm lift in the left edge, acn barely be seen, but there is some flex there. I can live with that though. My Tf101 had significantly bigger issues- Creaked, left speaker stopped working, dock drained battery like crazy, etc etc..!
I unlocked and rooted my Nexus 7 and my prepaid card is gone! My free money... Is it really gone?
So, I think it was at some Google show featuring Jelly Bean where they took a JB phone and touched screens with a JB tablet and it transferred data between them. I have a Galaxy Nexus and the N7 and tried making them kiss so much they requested a private room, but I can't figure out how to do that data share between them.
Anyone know what I'm talking about and how to do it?

I had the same problem trying to get the NFC chips to line up or something. I ended up flipping my gnex upside down when they were back to back before I could beam something over.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 2
It's my understanding that it only works with Google apps right now. To get it working make sure both NFC and Android Beam are turned on. After that open up something like the stock gallery or chrome, put both devices back to back and then tap the screen of the phone sending the data. I've never really been able to get it to work with my N7, but it works really well with my Galaxy S III and my brother's S II.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda premium
I believe you are talking about NFC? make sure you have it enabled. it is in settings, under wireless&networks, tap "more" and you can enable NFC.
Line up the Gnex battery to the "Nexus" on the back of the tablet in any app like browser,gallery, contacts, etc and it should say touch to beam when they are in range. Worked fine between both my Nexus(I run mwalts stock rooted roms)and S3 with the 7.

Sweet, it worked! I had to move the phone around on the back of the N7. Eventually it made a noise and I was able to beam.

Sideload the APK.
Can't find the APK for you tho, no time
It won't work unfortunately. The n7 is missing the internal mic in the headphone jack for it to work as designed. I figure the 3g version should have it for all the calling apps. Hopefully someone will confirm this though?
You can always punch in the numbers manually through square too.

Quite sure you are right neugroove.
I loaded the apk to one of my domains in case you want to have a go, you can grab it from www.kutiekuts.co.uk/squareup.apk

I confirmed Nexus 7 3G (Model: ME370TG) with Square Register. Square application is available on Play Store, now.
And the app recognized Square Reader, but failed to read my main credit card (VISA).
Unfortunately both Nexus 7 is not supported due to some phone jack problems maybe.
Alright I set up Google wallet, and I got a message that my device wasn't supported because I'm rooted. Everything setup fine is it going to work or am I going to look like a jack ass?

Unless someone knows of a workaround, my experience is that Google wallet will not work when rooted.
It works, it just says it's unsupported so Google isn't liable if credentials are stolen (since it's rooted, that can be a risk)
I understand Google covering it's butt, I didn't want to look like a jack ass when it didn't work

Wallet works just fine when rooted.
I haven't had a problem with Wallet because of root, yet, if ever. Where my Google Wallet wasn't working, that was on Google's side of the problem and not mines (couldn't add card).
Been using it rooted for a while... Go for it!
Been rooted and unlocked since I got the N4 and N7, both reads unsupported, both works fine when I use it. It's just GOOG doing the CYA thing.
Cool I'm going to try it tomorrow in front of some iPhone loving coworkers.
