So I have tried to purchase Titanium Backup Pro and ADW Launcher EX. I both cases I got an email saying I need to update my credit card info and that my purchase has failed. I have had no problem purchasing other apps. Anyone know what's up?
Don't know man, just installed Titanium Backup and paid for the Pro version just to see if I'd have any trouble with it. Went just fine so cant tell what the problem may be.
Been meaning to install it anyway.
I've been having problems with app purchases from vendors that are from overseas. Google always stops the transactions and asks to update my payment info. It gets very frustrating but I know this process is to prevent fraud. It's also preventing me to make legitimate purchases.

Just a hunch, but do you guys think that it has to do with the fact that my Google Checkout card is my debit card instead of my credit card ?
I'm using a debit card also. It's strang that some work and others don't.

Any money sent international is a big security deal. My buddy sent me $150 for Christmas from Russia and he had to go through a **** ton of paper work and make phone calls (moneygram is what he used, i assume it's the same for western union though)
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.

^^^This is correct.
they still should have sent out a brief email....it would have taken approximately 0 effort on their part.....
if this is the case, then they need to start supporting more major credit card companies....like...hmmm....i dunno.....visa lol
My balance says 0. I did find this screen:

I hope someone like Chase decides to add NFC payments to their banking app. They seem to know what the customer wants.
How about Lucid kernel???

They would if Visa would let them. Visa is trying to do it's own NFC thing and will not make a deal with Google.

Weird I could have sworn I saw visa joining Google Wallet for NFC and that all the paper work was being taken care of lol.. but if visa makes an NFC app then I'm using both Wallet and Visa ^_^

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
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.

Activated it in the USA and I never got an email or anything! Very confused and I wonder if the latest batch of units have the deal expired maybe?
Edit: yes I bought it from google. I looked through my spam folders in a eventually found the message and it mentioned free content but the link sent me to Google help and I can't find the content.

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.
Isn't this your post too?

Is there a way to contact Google via email to sort this issue out? The Contact Google page doesn't actually offer any email or something.
The factory restore didn't work for ya? Asked Google if there was any other way and they said no. Their number is found on Nexus support page.
So, aside from the hacked version of Google Wallet that we can't easily top-up, has anyone managed to get any NFC payment systems working on their Nexus 4 in the UK? There seems to be a few around but it's all a bit.... confusing to say the least.
Anybody got anything?
The only one I have working is orange quick tap which is actually a barclaycard app on my galaxy S3 allows NFC payments been using it for a while now , tried to install the apk onto my N4 but its not supported yet .

NFC payments UK
So is there anyway I can take advantage of the NFC in my lovely N4 to pay for stuff in the UK? It'd be a real shame if not.

It's been ages and there's still no visa paywave app.
Just got my Samsung Pay Beta activated on my phone two days ago (Sprint GS6) and I wanted to share my experience. In short, it works brilliantly. I tried it today for the first time. I have my chip & pin Bank of America card attached to it.
The first place I tried was Walgreens. They have NFC readers, but I turned off NFC because I wanted to try the MST part to see how good it would work. As soon as the cashier told me how much I had to pay, I put my phone up to the reader and it worked almost instantly. I was actually surprised at how fast it was, even faster than NFC (Google Wallet) from my past experiences. The cashier didn't even flinch or ask questions, I guess she is used to people paying with their phones.
The second place I tried was Dollar Tree. I pretty much did the same thing, as soon as she told me the price I held the phone to the reader and it worked instantly. This time the cashier had never seen someone pay with their phone. She asked me if I had just paid with my phone and I said yes. She told me I was very advanced and modern (she was an older lady) and the old lady behind me said the same thing. She was smiling the whole time I was walking out the door. I laughed and told them it was the new Samsung Pay.
So far it has been a really nice positive experience from ease of use, to cashier response. I need to try it at more places obviously. Just one thing to mention, when the phone is off and you pull up the credit card, you have to swipe up all the way to the middle of the screen for it to recognize what you are trying to do and turn on. I wish they made it a smaller swipe motion.
I'll update this as I try it at more places. I plan on getting the Gear S2 Classic, so I'm excited to try NFC on that as well.
Got my beta a few days ago, just updated my FW today (T-Mobile Latest) still can't get the placeholder app to give me the install button.
no experience yet. samsung just keeps emailing saying im invited to test the beta and i just keep putting in my email....maybe I'll get the link to the beta app on the 27th....

Are you signed into your Samsung account on the phone? Your Samsung sign-in has to be the same email as the email you signed up for in beta.

What carrier are you using? Do you have the Samsung Pay app on your phone already?

att and no app
Yeah. I wasn't at first but I fixed that quick. Wiped the galaxy app store, account, Samsung pay and samsumg÷ app. I even tried downloading someone else's Samsung pay and framework app. That got me further. I was able to get all the way to where it sees your login and I hit next it tries to load but fails.

I've read that it takes a few days to show up for some people, I hope it works soon for you.
used it the other day. Strange experience. but it worked flawlessly at Home Depot
Its also cool you can swipe up with the screen off and active it so you dont have to have it active all the time
(FYI: i had to call Samsung Pay to get beta activated because this is my 2nd phone and they had tied to the original IMEI i had)
Tried it at GameStop today and the MST worked flawlessly. Only this time the cashier asked me for the last 4 digits of the card. Samsung just updated the app yesterday and now it shows the last 4 digits of the digital card right under the last 4 digits of the real card. It did not show that before, so it is a nice update. Showed him my phone and was out the door. He was totally confused about the whole transaction, had never seen it done before.
had to report my first bug today. Samsung pay seems to break my IR blaster. have a ticket in so we'll see what happens

Reported the same bug and got a ticket in as well. It seems to break both the top IR blaster (used by the Peel remote) and the proximity IR emitter on the front (used by Beep'nGo).
I've been racking my brain trying to figure out what was wrong with my IR Blaster. I'm glad my hunch was right and that Samsung Pay (once a card is activated in the software) is the culprit.
Well, I was very excited to see Samsung Pay available for my use today. After the hour or so of updates that I needed, I went to start adding cards to it. Out of about 6 cards in my wallet, only one actually works. So, yeah, it's great that it can be used at more places than Google Pay or Apple Pay, but only with one of my cards, which happens to be an AmEx, which also means that it's NOT accepted at a lot of places.
Also, when I tried using it at the grocery store, I couldn't get it to work. I kept holding it near the card swipe slot, moving the phone around, never got it.

This depends on the given country and also the local banks AFAIK.
I got it activated today and added a card.
Seems a bit laggy at times,
It's froze a couple of times on me.
Have yet to try it, I will next time IF I REMEMBER lol.
Gotta get used to it.
Also Question, do you have to have NFC activated or android beam in order to use sam pay?

Nope. NFC is merely a fallback if it cannot do a MST. I keep NFC off just to try and get MST sales to go through.
I just used Samsung pay at auto zone. . It was so easy and effortless! !
