I was wondering if anyone knew if the triband version of the Sprint Samsung Galaxy S4 had the nfc secure element?
I went as far as getting the modded google wallet and nfc fix to be able to get tap to pay to show in wallet.
When I try to set up tap to pay it gives me NfcSetupFailure : 1 as the error.
Anyone else have success on the triband version using tap to pay? I understand if it doesn't have a secure element its a waste of time until kitkat comes out. Honestly that's really the only feature of kitkat I want so if I could figure out how to do that I wouldn't be worried about the update
Just tried my new T series, and no Tap and Pay....looks like no Secure Element access here.
Here's to KK on the new phone.

maybe its just me but i am not liking the new google wallet. i like the old one, where i could tap the card i want and pay. now i have to add money to the app then pay pretty much. yes i can put money in but it seems to me, using the old method was better.
so i have the zip file for it from way back i believe. and it wont work. i keep getting nfc force close. which ends up in me reflashing my rom
i have done a google search and it brought up nothing that was helpful. i did follow this guide http://www.phonearena.com/news/How-to-Google-Wallet-working-on-the-Verizon-Samsung-Galaxy-S4_id43574 even downloaded the zip file to make sure it wasnt the file i had
hopefully somebody has done this.
so, i decided to try this new google wallet and i guess i will have to get used to this new one. i put $50 to pay for the stuff i had. well it didnt work. so i was upset and had to pay via the same card. and yes my nfc was on. so i get back to my truck, and noticed on tap to pay in the nfc settings, google wallet doesnt pop up. i will screen shot this later. could that be the reason why it doesnt work?
now i have to wait until google wallet sends me a deposit, then i can put the money back in my bank.
hope somebody can help me out, google wallet was a nice feature (i think it worked on my s4 running 4.2 mf3 build at the time) but i know it did on my s3 quite well.
I'm familiar with the reasons why Google wallet tap and pay hasn't worked for the Note 3 in the past, due to the particular NFC hardware used, but there were rumors floating around that the needed drivers would be added for the 4.4.3 update. Here we are, post 4.4.4 update, and we still cannot use tap and pay.
Who is still holding this up and why? Will this EVER work for us? Dies anyone have any new information on this?
Thanks

I think he is mistaken but I chatted with someone at google today about that very subject. His response was that Wallet tap and pay should work fine with my VZW Note 3 without my having to do anything other than turn on NFC at the checkout since I have updated to Kitkat 4.4.4. So either their customer service folks are being fed bad information or the carrier is totally lying to us or it really does work but I won't know until I go someplace that accepts it and try it. I'm sure gonna feel stupid standing in that line tapping my phone on that panel and nuthin' happening.
I admit, I haven't actually tried it, but that's because I'm sure it won't work. We don't have the specific "tap to pay" section in the os settings menu, therefore, how could I possibly toggle payment methods between "Softcard" and Google wallet? and I know from previous phones that Google wallet must say "tap to pay ready" somewhere. Not to mention, it still says Note 3 does not support tap to pay on the Google Wallet support page.
Anybody else have any experience with Google or Samsung support regarding this issue?
For those who have taken the OTA update to Lollipop, is there a way to get tap and pay / tap and go working with Google Wallet? If so, I can't find it.
I have found instructions for checking for tap and pay capability in KitKat Settings, but Lollipop Settings screens have changed and I can't find any reference to tap and go.
I have been doing some reading about the tap and pay problem. Apparently Google Wallet relies on something called "Host Control Emulation" for tap and go capability, but this is not supported by our NFC chipsets. But I was hoping that Lollipop would fix this - either by Google Wallet using another means to work with the NFC chipset, or by updated NFC drivers.
Where did u find something for kit Kat and it works?
Sent from my SM-N900V using XDA Free mobile app
I didn't find how to get it to work in gn3 - just found instructions on how to check for the capability on a device running Kitkat. The instructions are as follows:
To see if you can tap and pay with your Android device, follow these steps:
Go to your phone's Settings.
Touch More settings.
Make sure NFC is turned On.
Go back to Settings.
.
Check for a "Tap and Pay" option in the menu.
If you can see the "Tap and Pay" option in the menu, you can Tap and Pay with your device.
But these instructions are no good for Lollipop - there is no "More settings" option.
I knew that Google Wallet tap and pay would not work on the GN3 running Kitkat - I was hoping that the problem would be fixed with the update to Lollipop. Either it's not fixed, or I haven't found out how to enable or activate it.
I found a good thread discussing the problem - and the OP was asking the same thing - would the problem be fixed when Lollipop was released. He had lots of links explaining the problem: It does seem that Google could fix the problem if wanted to.

Hey guys,
I bought the Samsung S8+ in Germany, O2. I was hoping to be able to use Samsung Pay or android pay. All the other Samsungs I've had they come with Samsung Pay already, just to swipe up and it appears, with this one I don't have it. I tried to download in the play store and says ain't available for my country. The problem is I know it's available I just can't get it... I even downloaded the apk and installed it and when was on the setup says "can't read Sim card" and automatically closes. When I enter again says it can't connect to the server ( I'm using wifi and tried with data also)
Anyone knows how can I use Samsung Pay on S8? Kinda sad I payed so much for a cellphone and one of the features I was looking forward I can't use it =(
someone recommended this to me and it worked. try downloading samsung pay version 2.7.03
New phone came yesterday
Stock phone on latest miui NFC won't work
Any fixes
Tap more in the settings app
Under secure element position
choose 'hce wallet'
Works after that
Cheers
