Hi All
I am getting ready to order my note 4 on Verizon but have yet to get a straight answer on this question so I reach out to the forums......can someone confirm the tap to pay feature is working in google wallet?
Once the Verizon variant starts shipping, can someone also confirm working for Verizon?
Thanks all

Yes it is working and has been answered on the forums before.
I have the AT&T model and use it everyday.

Does anyone know if Google Wallet can be used on AT&T's Galaxy Note? I have the NFC chip enabled and Google Wallet is installed but something - I'm guessing AT&T - is blocking it... Is there any way to get this running?
Alternatively, if Google Wallet cannot be run, does anyone know where to get a version of the ISIS (PayWithISIS) Mobile Wallet? They were testing it at SXSW and both TX and UT are test markets. Just wondering if anyone knows where to get the apk.
Thanks
Does any one have working Google Wallet for AT&T Galaxy Note?
If yes please let me know..
Yah our Note is not yet being supported for GW. My guess is that we will have to wait once the official ICS OTA is out from at&t.

Are you rooted? In that case it won't work. I also read we're missing a "secure element" chip, whatever that is. At&t basically set it so you will have to go through their Isis system... or so I've read

Hello everyone. New to the forums. Excited to now be a part this awesome community.
First off let me give you the back story. I am currently deployed in the Middle East in the AF. My vzw upgrade is available this up coming Friday and I plan on getting the Note 2. Although my account is currently frozen because of my deployment I only have one month left over here. My plan is to take the upgrade now, unfreeze my account, and have the phone sent to me. This way I have a month to play with the device before I get back home. If I wait until I get home I won't be able to put it down and my wife will strangle me! lol
Anyway, I was wondering if anyone knows whether or not it is possible to activate your Verizon phone outside of the US? I know you can start the process online but then you have to dial a *#### number. Does anyone have experience with this or know if this will work overseas? If not, do you know how long you have to activate the device? The time difference and my work schedule makes it difficult for me to get a hold of Verizon so I thought I would ask on here.
Any insight/experience would be greatly appreciated. I can't wait to get this beast of a phone!
Don't quote me on this. But I think you can, you will just have to add an international calling plan. Again do not quote me I could be wrong but that may be your only option to be able to use it

Thanks man. I was finally able to call vzw today and they said the same thing. Note 2 has been ordered! I cannot wait!
Note 2 arrived two days ago...man this thing is a BEAST!
On another note I just want to put this here that I actually could not activate it overseas. It turns out you have to be on the verizon network first to activate and set up GSM capabilities...kind of strange but its all good. I am not getting stuck with any fees or anything like that because I accepted the terms of the new contrat over the phone. Another thing that sucks is you cant take any OTA updates via wifi-only. Ill have to wait three more weeks...oh well this thing will keep me busy until then.
With the recent update, is it possible that a new sim card (like maybe the one that works with Isis) would allow the tap to pay feature?
In order to use Google wallet, you need NFC, but not a different SIM card

I was just chatting with Verizon, and asked why Google Wallet would not tap n pay, he said I needed a NFC Sim card. He is sending me one at no charge. What is the difference between the NFC sim and the NFC battery? Why was the S4 not shipped with a nfc sim? I am not even sure if this will work... will let you know.
Thanks! Keep us updated.
The SIM card that Verizon sends you is for their app that they use for mobile transactions, is is. You need a special SIM for that to work. For Google wallet, you don't need that. All you need is a NFL capable device and you are good to go!

As with past experiences with Big Red I am not surprised that the customer service rep has no clue as to the actual service they offer. I have installed the new Google Wallet on my S4, with the NFC battery that came with the phone ( maybe someone can explain to me what the battery has to do with NFC? ). But I dont see an option to use tap n pay. I am rooted with Safestrap, and was contemplating installing the mod for GW, but now I see it has been abandoned. If I am missing something, maybe someone could point me in the right direction? I will get the sim that I ordered when I return from vacation, but I doubt it will have any effect. Would there be any other benefit from using the different sim card?
P.S. I would like to see this NFL sim card...

Since you are rooted and have SS installed you can install a functional tap to pay by 2 different methods. I have provided links to both methods below. The older method appears to be more stable. Hope that helps.

If you look at the thread with Gw 2 they have abandoned it... GW 1 is still buggy...
I have been using the 1st version due a while now an it has been working flawlessly

I just downloaded google wallet and added my debit card. Is it really as simple as just enabling NFC and tapping and paying? I've never used it before.
Mods: please move to Q/A. Wasnt paying attention when I posted.

I'm pretty sure this is blocked on Verizon.
Really? Why would you say that when NFC works with everything else?

I used it 2 times on my Verizon Galaxy Nexus. I got it to work at one McDonald, but it wouldn't at another one. You'll need to find places that will accept Google Wallet. One app I use to find those places is MasterCard PayPass Locator.

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.

When I looked a few days ago, Google's list of phones that can tap to pay includes only the Sprint version of the One.

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.

Feel free to give us more info. Or instructions.
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.
the TMO htc one does work as i tried it when i converted it to GPE.

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.
