Google Wallet - Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE

Hey guys, I'm confused on this google wallet . You have to have one of those cards to use it? U can't just set up your debit card? That kinda sucks I thought it was for any card?

You can add money to the google prepaid card with any type of card you already have and use that for purchases. Citi Mastercard is the only card you can use directly.

Is that google pre paid card something built into your account? Or something you ha e to go get?

Q about google play gift cards

hi, I want to buy google gift card, a friend told me i need visa card activated first on my "play account", is it true?
No. Playstore will just ask for some info when redeeming.

I have two SIM cards.

So I bought this DNA at best buy and the guy gave me two SIM cards, the one currently installed and another one. Can I remove the SIM card and put in the new one and it will go back to pre OTA? Or does the SIM card have nothing to do with it?

Nothing at all. Sim card just connects you to the network.

It also stores phone contacts
It can store contacts. That's more of a hold over feature from the pre-smart phone days. Honestly if you have an android phone and you're not syncing your contacts with google than you're doing something wrong. (I suppose there may be tin-foil hat wearing people out there that don't want to give google that information, but considering what you're giving them just by using an android phone those people should probably avoid the platform entirely). Even if you were planning to switch from an android to an iPhone it would make more sense to just import your google contacts in iOS than use the SIM to transfer them.

Activating 4G SIM for Note 2

Hey guys,
I picked up a LTE Micro SIM card for my Note 2 from my local Verizon store and was looking to activate it. I already own a HTC Rezound but that has the larger regular SIM in it. Is it as simple as activating the new SIM using the directions outlined below? And then popping it in.

Just want to make sure I keep my unlimited.
Thanks,
Chris

Yes just remove your battery from your Rezound and pop the SIM you got into you Note and Whala!

Awesome thanks! I didn't trust the verizon store to not try to switch me on to one of the share your wallet plans so I made them give me a Micro sim and then promptly left.

You could have also bought a sim card cutter off eBay. But now that you have a smaller sim, pick up an adapter in case you want to use the Rezound again (can't image why). I'm using a nano sim in my Note in an adapter so I can confirm that any sim can be adapted any way.

Which adapter did you buy? The one I bought isn't working. Shows the box with the x. It's not making full contact I'm guessing.

Is there someplace I can download and install the .apk from? I see the VZW Note 3 supports this app, but I cannot find it when I search the play store. Any ideas? Thanks!
Yeah the new update v1.9 isn't working on note 3. Downloaded it on the note 2 and moved the apk but the 3 didn't like it. Does anyone have the old verison they can rip and post up??

i hated that too. but do what most people are doing...Sign up for Amex Serve, there prepaid card. then once you create your serve account/card. link your debit, credit or bank to said card. Then you can use your serve card from your device and it will see hey you dont have any money on card and just take from your backup account ie your debit,credit or bank you set up attached to the serve card.

I appreciate the workaround advice. I think I'm gonna wait around to see what Google has up their sleeves. I'm just so against all that Isis was created for.

No problem. Depends on when we actually get 4.4

I installed the ISIS 1.9 apk on a rooted Note 3, and it will not run, as it says the app checks to see if the device is rooted and will not activate. Even with using Wanam Xposed to have the status as "official". So it looks like we got screwed again. Can't use Google Wallet, and ISIS won't work if your rooted.

There is a Isis root patch in the themes and apps section. Use that.

This is what I used.
It installed ISIS 1.9 and then the Root Bypass 1.1, but it would not work, so tried the newer Root Bypass 2.0, and still said it wouldn't activate because of being rooted.
Anyone else having issue where it gets all setup but when I go to add a card the list is blank??? It says It's setup but don't see any card to add.

Yea i read that on the note 2 forum as well, that on the 4.4 google wallet is not sim dependant.. and we on note 3 can get the benifit of it. But then again, we gotta wait till Root comes out after 4.4 Lets see how long all this takes. Cant wait to try google wallet. Lots of stores around my area are already flashing this sign on their counters.

I installed the isis root bypass framework, and all went fine until i opened the app, now it says, cannot read the secure element id.

I was able to install ISIS 2.00.01 build 08.50 from the link below. After I installed it, said it couldn't run because the phone is rooted. I then install the ISIS Root Bypass 2.0 from the above link. Rebooted. Then was able to run and setup ISIS. Just have to try it at a store to see if it works.

It looks like the note 3's dont have a secure element chip and therefor none of the google wallet mods will enable tap to pay for us. looks like isis wins this battle

The secure element is on your new SIM that came with the device.
So if you change your sim you don't get nfc?

Ya unfortunately that nfc secure element used for isis is from our sim card. Verizon definitely blocked google from accessing the secure element on the sim

right now the odds of google wallet tap to pay are slim to none. as for isis you need a secure element chip or sim I believe

You'll know if the SIM card is secure-element-ready (for Isis Mobile) if its the fully white sim card. The old ones are half red and half white, they do not contain the secure element. But neither will work for Google Wallet.
Verizon is so lame. Trying to punish Google when Google is the reason they sell a million smartphones a month

Yes the new SIM has the NFC. So Google Wallet won't work for us? VZW is really starting to piss me off

So here's an update to the above. I went back to Best Buy and after explaining what had happened, they were very kind and helpful to give me a sim card from another of their Note 3's from their stock. Evidently the card taken out of my was discarded somehow.
So can anyone tell me what happens when I try to activate this sim card? Will I be charged another activation fee? What will the swap affect on my phone? Should I expect any flack from Verizon after explaining what happened?

i actually work at Best Buy and you wont get an activation fee or upgrade fee. Doing a hardware swap is free and can be done multiple times in a day if needed. You actually can do it all online if needed through your verizon account.
The only time you will get a fee for activating a phone is if your are switching carriers to start up a new line or if you upgrade. It used to be called a contract fee because the fee only applies when signing a contract. however they changed the pricing on it so now the new line fee is $35 and the upgrade fee is $30.
