Let me try and make this an easy question. I used to be able to go to the play store and purchase apps on my att acct, now its only giving me an option to buy thru credit card only. Is there something I did to make that option go away or is it not an option on the new gapps? I'm running milestone 6 from, not sure if that matters. I flashed the latest gapps dated back in may I believe.

They got rid of that on newer phones and updated play store...I called google about that and they said att and other carriers are no longer doing that as it cuts out a lot of issues with billing and shizz..

I had the same problem. I cleared the data from the play store about five times and the option finally came back. It was just trial and error.

Has anyone else tried to purchase an app in the last couple of days using Carrier billing in Google Play? I have tried the last couple of days and while it shows my Sprint account when I goto pay, it won't let me select it. It is greyed out and all I can use is one of my credit cards that have been saved.
I am wondering if this has something to do with Google Wallet being broken on the Lte? Anyone else having this issue? I was going to call Sprint on my lunch break and see what they had to offer as well.

Used it on sunday, if that helps.

Well just got off the phone with Sprint. First it was supposedly on Google's end so I asked to speak with someone else. Next tech initially said that they no longer allow carrier billing and it stopped about three months ago. When I explained that I just used it over the weekend and that Sprint had just recently announced a partnership with Google Play for all store items she seemed confused and put me on hold. Then came back and said that my bill was behind so Google turned it off??? Next I informed her that actually my account is over paid by $80 she was even more upset and flustered. I thought she put me on hold again but she had just hung up on me. In the end she must have cleared my account as the apps I was trying to purchase I was able to.
Talk about horrible service and way to make sure your tech support team is well trained Sprint. What a joke...

My account was showing past due as well last month, when it clearly wasn't. I called in and they couldn't explain it either, but I got good service on the phone. My phone rep was very helpful and was going to call and follow up next month to make sure I wasn't charged anything extra.
To bring up an old subject, the other day I tried to buy an App. I kept getting an error, so I cleared the cache for the Play Store. and now I don't even have an obtion to bill to carrier. Any ideas?

It could be a Rom issue I know in the past I wasn't able to on certain roms. I haven't tried in a while but I did purchase some songs a few weeks ago. I believe I was on one of the earlier builds of meanbean. Try doing a back up and flashing a stock rom.

I have carrier billing. Always did. I heard a rumor if you don't pay your bill on time the option gets removed till you make a few consecutive payments on time. At least that's what a sprint Rep told my sister when she called to complain about not having the option.
I posted screenshots earlier today on another post regarding this matter showing I have the option. I'm never late on bills or ever have been so maybe that's why.

Same here. I think it is because AT&T has their own payment app incoming. Or Google didnt authorize it for our phones yet.

I am having a strange problem on the Google play market store, whenever I try to Download or update an app on 4G it gives me a message saying "waiting for network" and it just hangs there and does not start the Download process but when I switch back to 3G it starts the download right away which would be fine if my 3g wasn't so dam slow...Can anyone help? I'd really rather not download over 3g, I have tried clearing the cache for the play store app but the problem remains. I am able to do everything(browse the net, stream video, etc) on 4g except download apps from the store...wtf?

Hmm interesting, mine stopped working out of the blue as well...I have been using mean Rom 3.92 for over 4 months and it was working fine until recently. Have you found any work around? Could it be something wrong with the Google play store and not our phones?

Not our Rom or our phone. Some one over at the HTC EVO shift forums have the same issue. I say its the update. So what we need to do is downgrade the play store and break the damn auto update..... Any thoughts on how? :c

I saw a Sprint Users.com forum where all sorts of Wimax phones are having the issue currently (OG Evo, EG4T, etc). Mine's been having problems since last night. I just disabled 4G and it immediately started downloading. Unfortunately 3G is horribly horribly slow in Raleigh, NC these days. Might as well be using the Edge network. Ugh.
researching varisous forums...multiple handset manufacturers, and multiple carriers. Google has been blaming Sprint, but I also see similar posts on Virgin Mobile and (at least one mention of...) Verizon.

HTC Evo 4G
Non-Rooted
For me it works fine on 3g and wifi, but 4g is broken. "WAITING FOR NETWORK" is all it says. Been on the same Rom for the last 4 months. So Yea this is definitely not the phones.
update: I uninstalled all updates for the google play app and it downloaded perfectly. Now I honestly can't see how this isn't anything other than a bad update from google.
update: however this only works once per app since the market updates and then when the next app starts Bam! Waiting for network.

Sent from my PG86100 using xda app-developers app
Guys try uninstalling the updates as one of you mentioned but also go into system/app and delete MarketUpdater.apk. Copy it to your sdcard somewhere first. And after deleting reboot.
I don't have 4g and never used it but if your looking to use a version of Play Store that won't update that's the way to do it.

They say no one from Sprint actually reads or cares about their user forums.
But at very least it gets the message out that there is a real problem.
It states it has NFC, but will it be able to use Google wallet. I know Verizon doesn't want users to have or use Google wallet, however haven't seen anything addressing this. It it will be able to do Google wallet, this WILL be my next phone.

hopefully the wonderful devs can get it to work, since currently that pops up right after you try to launch the app. it doesnt even go into the app
No verizon does not support google wallet. Currently sprint is only one with google voice and wallet. I have the evo lte and yeah i do have wallet but the damn thing is a pain in the azz to deal with if you flash alot. You have to flash it seperately and wipe it clean after every flash and reset it up everytime. Everytime you flash a rom you will have to reset up card info name addy etc. I quit using it isnt worth the time or hassle.

I dunno though i get the same unsupported message with my evo on sprint being rooted. Not many places take it anyhow and it really doesnt save much time. Ive found that many places there end is messed up. This is definately something that is something that makes no difference to me if it has it or not. I have it and dont think ive used it in over a month.

But that alone means nothing. Wallet is still is not supported on Verizon and it is sounding like we'll need a modified version to side-load for Wallet to work.
Yeah, I tried to install it from the play store. It opens then tells me the device/network is not supported and quits. Such a shame. F'in Verizon...
Just got this phone yesterday and already having issues. Before I even rooted this thing the hands free activation didn't go through smoothly. I attached a pic below. That is one of the things that pops up.
Also, another screen pops up a lot. Device self help or something like that. It states something to the effect of, must complete this by pressing *2 on my phone to reach a representative.
Mind you that data works and so do phone calls. I actually called Sprint and they said that from their end everything is activated. This is driving me nuts. Any ideas?

I also purchased my note 3: from Best Buy and the sales guy said it would be better to use my sim from the s4 so it would not require activation. On my way home from the store I also received all the same errors you did and I called Sprint. The lady reviewed my account and said everything looked great but put me on hold when I told her about the sim exchange. She said to put the original sim that came with the phone back in the phone. When I rebooted everything seems to be ok. Except all the other issues I'm having with the phone, I will be returning it in a few days. This is the first phone I have never purchased a case for because I have no intention of keeping it with all its problems. I really like the note 3 but if the major issues on worked out I'll be on the s4 until they are.
