Yes, you read it right!
I just successfully installed Google Wallet on my HTC Amaze. No modifications, no tricking the play store into thinking youre a different device.
Just download and install it from the play store.
I havent attempted a transaction yet with my Amaze but hopefully tomorrow I can get it to work.
Everyone should try it!
This screen is from my Note2 because I dont have Tapatalk on my Amaze anymore.
Just took pics of my amaze screen for proof.
I didn't know you still had your amaze!
The Sammies are so good we don't even notice lol.
I dont use it. My daughter uses it now. Shes only allowed to text (unlimited) and use Wifi for data.

NFC transactions don't work though, right?
T-Mobile said the Amaze would at least support ISIS. Now that ISIS launched, turns out it doesn't support ISIS either.
[Can't post the link but it's on T-Mobile's blog under the 10/22/2012 posting]
The Isis Mobile Wallet can be installed on the following Isis Ready T-Mobile Android™-powered devices.
• Samsung Galaxy S® 4
• HTC One
• Samsung Galaxy S Note® II
• Samsung Galaxy S® III LTE
• Samsung Galaxy S® III
• Samsung Galaxy S™ II
• Samsung Galaxy S® Relay 4G
• Sony Xperia® Z
You will need the Isis sim card.
But I still couldn't get tap and pay to work on my Amaze. Still trying.

I was reading some threads last night on the International Galaxy Note and it seemed everyone was *****ing about how awful and ****ty the AT&T Galaxy Note is, with it being much less powerful and stuff.
Is this true? I'm debating rather to pay $300 for an On-Contract AT&T Galaxy Note or just getting an International Galaxy Note for $700
I understand the AT&T version has a Snapdragon CPU and an Adreno 220 GPU while the International has a Samsung Exynos CPU and an Mali MP 400 GPU. The AT&T one isn't THAT much slower/worse is it?
I have the international with the exynos. I don't really notice much difference from dual core snapdragon handsets like on the htc's. honestly, if there is a difference, would it even be significant enough to matter? I went with the international version bc I'm already on contract and didn't know what the full retail pricing for the AT&T note was gonna be.
FYI, if youre looking for a new international note, expansys has em for $669.99 after $20 coupon. The good thing is that with warranty issues, expansys says that you can send it to them, and they'll take care of shipping it to whatever country it is that handles the warranty for no charge.
Edit: Forgot to mention the AT&T note has LTE!!!
Well to be honest the only thing that bothers me about the AT&T Galaxy Note is the lack of a physical home button (I love being able to unlock my phone like an iPhone like I already do on my Desire Z)
I can't answer the question with 100% certainty, but if I had to guess I would say "no."
I'm basing this off of what I read about the Skyrocket vs the Galaxy S2. It was the same argument: Exynos vs Snapdragon. Yes, the exynos out benchmarked the snapdragon. But for day to day use, after owning BOTH phones, I can say there wasn't really much of a difference. In fact, I returned my Skyrocket and went back to the SGS2 because of how similar they were, and I wasn't in an LTE market yet.
I'm moving to Austin, TX next month, which is why I'm looking for an LTE device again, which brings me to the Note. Based off of the research I've done, the difference will be minimal.
Obviously these are different devices, but I'm guessing this is going to be another case of over-emphasis on benchmarks mixed with a case of personal pride from people picking the international, and then an LTE version of their phone coming out.

You can expect around 25-30mb a sec with LTE depending on where you live. I think the International note maxes at about 10? I could be wrong.
Short answer: yes.

Sure if youre in a full lte coverage area, much faster data. But yes I agree with other posters, performance difference should be minimal to daily users. Now gamers is a different story but how many of us play COD MW3 or whatever on our devices. As for the physical button on the international one, as nice as it would serve to unlock the phone, its just another moving part that can collect dust/liquid etc as some iphone users have experienced.
Oh and main hope for me is that enough dev's show up with super fast roms
if youre in an lte market, I'd say the lte would be a significant difference from hspa+. Just because you can't achieve speeds on h+ like you can on lte. Even if you don't live in an lte market, it wouldn't hurt to have lte capability in case you travel or they set up one in your area.
I wish samsung wouldve put in dual 3g band radios on the international note so we can jump to tmo if needed just like on the galaxy nexus.

to be honest most of that crap can easily be removed before you ever root so I dont know what the big deal is on that.
As for the other forum ranting about ours as apposed to theirs I would imagine its the same ol same ol trying to make them selves feel better about their phone by putting down another. The Exynos is way better on GPU and processing but for a every day to day user you probably wont be able to even tell the difference outside of benchmarks. IMO mainly DEVS and maybe heavy gamer's maybe the only ones to notice. The functionality of the phone is the same and so is the screen, resolution, memory and storage. the biggest difference is processor and modems.

Hmmm, I thought on my Captivate there were issues removing those apps before it was rooted. But was a couple years ago, so hopefully I am wrong. I know it is small, but just seeing those in my app drawer drive me nuts.

If you use an alternate launcher, say go launcher ex for example, you can hide apps in the app drawer, which will at least take care of the aesthetic cluttering until you can fully remove them, which I assume wont be long at all.

Yes, you can now remove most of the AT&T crap ware. Only a very small number of them can't be removed, especially the hidden one (City ID and Tethering Manager for example).

Even with TW, you can create folders and move all the AT&T apps into one folder so that you won't see them.
I tend to play quite a bit of games on my phone, but mostly it would just be emulators and stuff (Maybe GTA III and X-Plane too) You think I'd be good with an AT&T Galaxy Note?

Some, not most can be uninstalled. Some of the troublesome ones cannot be removed without root such as AP mobile. Is is at most a hassle though. I will most likely have both models. Do not know if that makes me unusual, but just wanted to relay my experience with my skyrocket and removable bloatware with ATT. Progress has been made but we are not there yet...

For me, it boils down to LTE market or not. Considering equal cost: If LTE market, yes, get the ATT note. If not, I'd probably go with the international.

I hear you and I am in the same boat as you. I want to use the galaxy note so bad I can taste it. I find myself searching google 3 times a day if not more looking for new information on a verizon branded galaxy note. It sucks that all the good phones go to gsm carriers first and the cdma carriers get left in the dust all the time. Hang in there a little bit longer because rumers are pointing to verizon release soon because at&t just slashed their prices on the note meaning the exclusivity agreement they have with Samsung may be coming to an end.

I wish they would hurry or find away to flash this note to work with verizon. Verizon finally got lte here in ocala florida while att still has the FAKE 4g here and no plans of lte here. my friends phone is so fast now since lte is here and I just took over someones unlimited data plan with verizon so i just got lucky!! but dont like there phones. Thinking of selling my unlimited data with att if I can get this to work.
Verizon just had a new device benchmark show up so it is either the S3 or the Note.

I see that they are talking about it but it could be a year from now before they offer anything like the note
The exclusive deal with at&t is over and tmobile is getting ready to launch the note as for verizon and sprint they should also launch by mid summer if not then they might as well wait for the note2. I have no faith in verizon as they tend to put too much faith in motorola and lg here lately.

It was blocked on the Note 2 also but there were work arounds to get it working by editing build.prop to mimic a Galaxy Nexus (only Verizon phone that wallet is allowed on AFAIK). I still have Wallet working on my Note 2 with this hack and used it quite frequently but it requires root of course.
Once we get root on Note 3 I imagine it won't be long before we'll get a Wallet thread with a work around.
Was reading new features offered on Kit Kat, and it mentioned wallet, so I went to google play and google wallet pops up on my T-mobile HTC One. I thought due to security reason T-mobile could not use wallet but Sprint, but it is nice to see wallet can be installed on our phone now. Sharing this info if you haven't tried it yet.
Google Wallet is available on all android devices now. BUT you can not use it to pay for stuff at point of service locations using NFC. That part of the secure element is still being blocked by the carriers.
Google Wallet will let you do other stuff besides just pay at a POS machine. But i dont know what they are. I think you can send money to someone, and check your google play transactions.
That's either not accurate or I'm just lucky because I specifically went with a ported ROM at first to get TAP working again and with the stock 4.4.2 update I can still use TAP. I believe Google bypassed those secure element restrictions previously offered only by Sprint devices so we can all use it. I came from Sprint and used Wallet for over a year and I was pissed when I learned there was nothing I could do till KK because available.

It installed on my TMO HTC One, although I haven't done more than just open it and look around.
Actually to clear up a few things as of android 4.4 and above all devices with NFC can use google wallet just fine including tap and pay. Google wallet no longer requires the secure element as before it's all emulated now. I been using it for a few months now on my htc one from tmobile.

I have a stock HTC One, Stock Note 3 Both TMO and Nexus 5.
The Nexus 5 Wallet app allows me to pay via tap and pay using the wallet app. However the other 2 devices allow me to load the app but NOT use it for tap and pay.

the Note 3 wont be able to use the tap and pay feature because they are using a different NFC chip as the nexus 5 and HTC Ones. once google integrates it with KK, then it should be able to work.

Well there you go. Your NOT using a T-Mobile HTC One with Wallet.
When you converted it to the GPe you got rid of the T-Mobile blocking software, and its NO longer a T-Mobile HTC One. It is now a Google Play Edition HTC One and that unit does work with tap and pay with Google Wallet.
So back to my original statement. The T-Mobile HTC One can not use tap and pay with Google Wallet. Its still a true statement.
I think your wrong still, I work for T-Mobile and I updated and installed KK on our demo unit. Tap and pay is in fact confirmed to be working.

Interesting.
I wiped my cache from the recovery and enabled NFC again and NOW google wallet does give me the option to use Tap and Pay. But only on the HTC One.. The Note 3 still has it blocked.. Very cool. So now my Nexus 5 and HTC One can do it..
I cant argue anymore. Now i can agree it does work (at least now its giving me an option to use it like its supposed to). Ill test it out as soon as i go to a place that uses it.

My Note 3 is updated. Running official OTA 4.4.2.
I bought mine from Samsung.com and noticed that it says "Unlocked by Samsung" on the box. I don't know if that means the device isn't actually a Tmobile unit though. Anyways, Samsung Pay doesn't work for me. When I install it from Okay I Store, it says this device isn't compatible. When I install it from the Galaxy App store, it tells me a new update is available and the new features are "Brand new UX" and when I press OK, it just closes the app. Is it just because the phone isn't officially released yet or is it a software issue? Thanks.
If it says unlocked by Samsung you do not have the TMobile version.

Mine is SMG965U1ZKAX. I ordered a T-Mobile Midnight Black S9+ From Samsung.com. Everything about it seems like it's an unlocked model. I don't even get the T-Mobile splash screen when I reboot the phone. If it really is the unlocked version, I'm guessing that model hasn't been updated to support Samsung Pay yet. I'm not sure if it's a good thing or a bad thing that I got the unlocked version instead of the T-Mobile version.
I went back to my order receipt/emails and checked to make sure I even ordered the T-Mobile model. Turns out, it's the Unlocked model. I know for a fact I chose the T-Mobile option but I guess not. Was the Unlocked S8+ compatible with Samsung Pay?
If you do not have a T-Mobile folder with T-Mobile apps on your phone, it means is not from T-Mobile.

I'm having the EXACT SAME ISSUE, but I'm on the unlocked U.S. version direct from Samsung on AT&T. It's been driving me crazy. Made the rounds on both AT&T's and Samsung's customer service phone lines and online chats. No help.

You guys probably have to wait for actually launch date I'm pretty sure this happened with the note 7... They don't push all updates unfortunately until launch dates for some services. So I'm sure within the next 3 days it'll be updated to support the unlocked variants

What doesn't work? My app launches and it allows me to sign in and add a card. I have not tried to use it as of yet. My phone is unlocked Coral Blue and has a Verizon SIM in it. I got the phone at 1030 and turned it on. About an 1 hour ago a update came. I didn't add Samsung Pay until after the update.
I got my unlocked from Samsung S9+ delivered today (3/14). With a Verizon SIM I was able to add a card to Samsung Pay and use it successfully at Best Buy.

I get this when I install from Galaxy Apps. When I press the OK or Cancel button, the Samsung pay just force closes. There's no updates for Samsung Pay in the Galaxy App store or the Play Store either.

I did get a software update this morning which I installed, but Samsung Pay still gives me the same errors. I called Samsung Pay Support a few hours ago and the guy basically said it's a known issue with the S9 and S9+ and that there should be an update pushed out "Soon" that'll fix it. Other than a factory reset, I think my only option is to wait. I'd rather not reset my phone unless I absolutely have to because I hate getting things set up again, lol.
Edit: I should probably add, I can't even set up Samsung Pay. I get those error messages any time I try to launch the app.
There's an update in the Galaxy App store and it's working for me now. Another user on reddit let me know about it.
