I been looking around for Google wallet alternatives since I just got my one. And saw Isis and how you need a Isis ready SIM card so I went on att.com and there weren't any. So I started searching.... It looks as if att isn't selling them anymore could they have givin up and maybe give us Google wallet in the coming update ?

Isis hasn't rolled out nationally. Only a handful of test cities. You can only access it and get a Sim card if you are in one of those markets.
Also if you're rooted, it won't even let you open ISIS.
This sucks I really want Google wallet

I miss google wallet also.. Not because it was very practical, but for the shock value and conversation starter that it was. There is nothing like using it at stores and having the employees watch in amazement!!!

I saw a lot of people posting that google wallet works for them on Sprint but has anybody been able to get it to work for AT&T?
I even tried the below link and it gives me the not supported error no matter what method i try.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1365360
Same here. I think it is because AT&T has their own payment app incoming. Or Google didnt authorize it for our phones yet.

Do you know what the name of the att payment app is or when it will come out?
It's called isis. No release date yet.

they should just allow the google one until isis is ready ffs
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.

it been asked in a couple of threads, and currently you can download the google wallet app, but when you try to use it it pops up with an error about it not being supported your device or mobile network
I currently have the nexus, and mine says unsupported, but still works. I guess I will order the phone and see what I can do.

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.

Another EVOLTE user here, I believe that the need to wipe gWallet settings between flashes has been resolved and no longer needed FWIW....

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...
Has anyone been able to successfully set up Isis mobile wallet? I tried doing it twice but it failed. I'm mostly doing it for the $50 phone rebate. I'm going to call Verizon momentarily as the failure email states to call the carrier.

I tried it too and got the same type of message google wallet gets, "phone not supported". Vz strikes again, and this one is actually their app. I thought their reason for not supporting google wallet was because this one was coming out, now even their own app doesn't work? Frustrating.

Isis is only available in a limited area. If it didnt set up you Arent part of the initial roll out.

From the app description:
" Important Notes:
-The Isis Mobile Walle is launching in Austin, Texas and Salt Lake City, Utah.
-Please ensure you have the appropriate SIM card required to operate the Isis Mobile Wallet on your device."
I am in salt lake. The rep inserted the Isis card when I got the phone. I called vz and the csr had me try it over lte rather than wifi. Didnt work though. Same failure. Shes supposed to call me back and see. Because of the limited roll out, they havent had a lot of training. She told me I was her first ever call about Isis.
I'll update later.

Juat went by my local verizon store and the salesperson there said there's an issue registering the note 2 on the Isis side and they are working on a fix.
Of course, now I'm rooted and when opening the app, it says the phone is no longer compatible because of root capability. Oh well. Unless someone makes a cracked version of the app that bypasses the root checker.

Thats my bad. I bumped an old thread instead of making a new one.
Anyway, I guess third time was the charm. It activated.
Just for referrence I am stock without root. And I am not in a test market.
If you are not in a test market you just need to go to your local Verizon and have them order the SIM. Isis is open to anyone who wants it. Verizon's internal documents say that anyone outside the test markets that request isis can participate. They just need the SIM shipped to them. Isis compatible SIM cards will have "NFC" in the SKU.
My Story:
I called customer service and they didnt know what I was talking about. They looked it up and said no problem they would ship it to me. Once I received I went to the store to get it activated. We discovered customer service just sent me a generic SIM. It didnt work.
After a hour and a half the people at the store found the right SIM in the system but they were unable to order it. I know the district manager and he happened to walk in right then. He called a store in a test market and had them mail the SIM.
Apparently I am the only person in Oklahoma City to ask for it so far.
So it may take some time and effort but you can get it.
First Impression:
Google wallet is less complicated to set up. And supports way more cards. Until isis supports more cards its more of a novelty item. Its too bad because I really like using Wallet on my GNex.

I live in SL, I've had Isis on my phone since I got the jb update. Unfortunately, I've tried to use it about 5 times with no luck. It keeps declining the cash card. I've talked to the Isis team and they are trying to fig out out. I wish I could just use Google wallet, it was so much better. With Isis, you only have 3 options for credit cards. I can't load my local credit union debit card like I could with g-wallet. Hate VZW

I agree. I don't want to root because I use this phone for a business. But I highly prefer Wallet. Hopefully they will be updating Isis soon. Wallet started out the same way so I am holding out hope.
I hate isis because they don't allow it for business customers yet retarded mess

You will get the failure to set up secure element on sim card email if u dont disable wifi first. It has to be done on Verizon's network . And you have to have a isis supported SIM card.

So I really like the idea of google wallet and would like to have it on my att htc one. I tried xposed/modaco toolkit and google wallet crashes during the setting up google wallet phase.
After trying a few different roms, I waited for the GE edition ROM hoping that would solve it. It didn't, I am still having the same problem with wallet crashing during the setup process.
Anyone have any suggestions? I would donate a good chunk of change if anyone could program a solution or come up with one.
I dont mean to sound like a **** but there are NUMEROUS threads about this very topic, and I can assure you that once someone makes Wallet available to us AT&T One users, it will be on the front page of every mobile device tech site
I can't get it to set up. But I did get it installed..... Driving me crazy. I may switch to the s4 just because this issue.

Not sure i agree that AT&T is blocking it because wallet works fine on Galaxy Nexus with AT&T sim.

Sounds crazy. The chip is the the NFC Chip . Or if not what chip else should that be ?
I thought it was NFC too. But after reading this I have doubts..

Has anyone else experiencing issues with the One Max's NFC being detected at stores?
I'm currently using the Power Flip case, and not sure if that is affecting it, or if I'm tapping wrong part of the phone's back plate.
So far, I have only been successful at one store out of three attempts (at other places).

It's a third-party thing, and being pushed pretty hard by Verizon, AT&T and T-Mobile. Thanks to this, I can't use Google Wallet as an option NFC mobile payments.
i remember when I had a note 2, with ATT, a few folks had ISIS on their phones, and we also not able to use google wallet; ISIS adds some files to your phone, that keeps Google Wallet from working..
I think there's more to it than that. Both my current and previous (Droid DNA) phones did not come with Isis installed. It's likely not supported in the Google Wallet app (device not certified). Verizon, AT&T, and T-Mobile probably made a big enough fuss.
I remember when Wallet first came out, and Sprint was the only carrier to support it. Seems like nothing had changed.
