I can't seem to be able to add cards or make existing ones contactless. I get the following error message:
Can't verify payment details
This might be because some details, like name or address, were changed. Double check your card details and try again.
I don't have this issue with my other phone. I've tried factory resting and trying again with transferring anything from my old phone. Anyone else have similar issues with Google pay?

Just opened my viewsonic Gtablet from Tigerdirect. Ran the OTA update and now running 3588, otherwise straight out of the box.
I am unable to log into any account using an app (mail, contacts, skype, tdameritrade, twitter apps). I am able to log in fine when I visit the website and login through the web.
Is there someplace I have to grant apps permissions to use the internet? Why can't I log in?
Thanks.
Just checking if anyone else had this problem. If not other responses, I'll let this thread die. Thanks for reading.

No. There is no special place to grant permissions to use the internet. Do you get any kind of error message? Force Close? Some indication of symptoms might help us diagnose the problem.
Get an app called Superuser. You will need to root the tab, as well. I think there's something like "oneclickroot" out there.
Honestly, grab a custom ROM, they all come with this standard.
Rooting shouldn't be necessary to make any of those apps work so I doubt that will help him.
Google login fails, 2 step verification is culprit
This may not solve your problem, but it knocked me for a loop for a whole evening with my new motorola defy this week.
You get a new android device, and everything looks so nice, but then you try to log in to your google account. Repeatedly. You keep getting an error that says the username or password are wrong, even though you can log in on your pc. OBVIOUSLY the password is fine, but it wont work on your new android device.
Well, if you turned on 2-part authentication then you have a problem. (If you have never heard of 2-part authentication then move on, you would have to have done this on purpose and it is way to painful to forget having done it.)
Android doesnt support 2-part authentication. So you have to generate a special password for your android device.
Start by logging in to gmail, or whatever google service you wish. Go to your account settings (the little gear-looking thing in the upper right.) Under Personal Settings, Security you'll see an entry called "Authorizing applications & sites". Go here and make an entry for your device, and it will generate a special password for that specific google application that doesnt happen to support 2-part authentication. Enter your super-secret password.
Suddenly the world is golden.
Probably not what the OPs problem was, but I wanted to put it SOMEWHERE.
grrrr....
Having never used Android before, I bought my first Android device last month (Xperia Play) and installed it on my HP TouchPad. Of course, I had never used the Android Market before either, so when I made a test purchase from the Android Market I was surprised to see it go through without ever asking me for payment details. I got an email receipt to my Google account saying that I could get a refund in a certain amount of time, but I still had no idea what card or account it had been charged too. Eventually, I found that $5 had been deducted from my Chase checking account, presumably from my debit card. That's strange because I have not used Google Check Out or anything Google-related since the last time my check card was replaced, so I can't imagine how they got the payment details. It's on my twin brother's family plan, so it was not charged through the cellular provider either. To make matters worse, I no longer used that account and it caused an overdraft (corrected)
Now, I checked every account and settings screen I could find in the Android Market app but I could find nothing about payments or payment methods. I logged in to market.android.com on my PC and similarly could find nothing. I checked their help and FAQ questions: Nothing. I searched here: Page after page of irrelevant results. ARGH!
I'm ready to make more app purchases (Titanium Backup Pro, PdaNet, etc) but I only have enough in that account to cover the bills that I pay from it and I can't allow Google to withdraw on that bank account again. How can I switch payment methods so that it will not automatically bill the wrong account AGAIN?
Edit: "ARGH!" again. I found a thread about billing to your AT&T account being added and there was a screenshot distinctly showing AT&T billing as a drop-down in some kind of checkout page in the Market app. Thinking I must have somehow missed it, I installed Titanium Backup and then chose to purchase the key. Once again there was NO checkout and it just went ahead and purchased without ever giving the option to provide a funding source. How on Earth did they ever get my payment details and how to I manage them?!
I immediately canceled/refunded the order.

Log into your Google account on a PC and then manage you google checkout options. The card is in there.

Thanks, but I already looked for Google Checkout options in the logical places last month and found nothing, but I shouldn't have to even look: It is illogical that they would use the service without my permission and without informing me. Even so, I checked Google.com>More>Even More while logged in and searched in the page for "Check" with no results. I am logged in. On the Google page I only have search related configuration options.
OK, so I tried to go to checkout.google.com MANUALLY and it forwarded me to "Google Wallet," which I have never used before. I had to agree to all kinds of things just to get in there and delete the card, so it's like they were holding it hostage until I agree. One thing is for sure: I NEVER agreed to automatically be charged through the Android Market. *NOW* will I finally be prompted for payment options when I chose to buy an app? I'll find out soon.
They are getting pretty sloppy. First, I got slammed by over $30 of texting fees because their Google Voice app said it was receiving the messages in the messaging app instead of saying that it was forwarding them to my mobile number (Grrr... without even a warning about potential fees, they worded it exactly like the feature I was looking for: like iMessage and BBX or SMS GV Extensions on iPhone integrating with the native text messaging app).
The fact that there is no mention of GCO/Wallet anywhere on the Android Market options or help pages is a serious oversight.
Oh yeah I forgot that Google check was changed to Google wallet recently. I know when I buy an app it tells me what card it is charging it to before I buy it
same here. I didn't start using the Android Market until the 10 cent deals came out. It asked me if I wanted to charge it to my cell provider or enter a new credit card. Each time I make a purchase I have both of those options, though my credit card info is saved with Google Wallet or what ever it is. Then I have to manually enter my pin. I wasn't sure what this was at first, but tried my phone lock pin and that was it.

Moving to Q&A
Google Wallet - Everything you need to know before you flash or root!​
DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT TAKE ANY RESPONSIBILITY FOR ANY DAMAGE THAT OCCURS TO YOUR PHONE. THIS IS A COLLECTION OF INFORMATION I FOUND WHILE ROOTING AND FLASHING ROMS. I ONLY ORGANIZED IT HERE TO MAKE IT EASIER FOR PEOPLE TO FIND.
Don't forget to thank people who made the ROMs, Root Methods, etc. They put in a lot of work and take a lot of time helping people. All it takes is a click of a button. One for me too! It's a lot of work trying to keep everything updated. =P
This will and always will be a work in progress. If you feel something should be added, clarified, or corrected feel free to PM me. I'm not perfect and I can't read everything so any and all help is appreciated. (Yes of course I will credit you. Just no plagiarism!)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
What is Google Wallet?
http://www.google.com/wallet/what-is-google-wallet.html
What do I need to know before I start rooting or flashing ROMs?
The main thing you want to know is that Google Wallet is a pain for constant flashers. It may turn you off completely to being a flashaholic. I'll explain:
Once you add a Citi Mastercard or load funds from any CC to the Google Prepaid Card, it is bound to the device ID, not your Google account! This ID changes every time you wipe data, flash ROMs, and Reset Google Wallet. Meaning if you don't get the right information, all the money on your Google Prepaid Card is gone when you Reset Google Wallet.
So what do I need to do?
For Citi Mastercard holders: You will have to call Citi Mastercard to have your card removed. It can take 24-48 hours to remove. You can check on the status after 48 hours by calling Citi directly at (877) 762-2989. You just add it back on after it is reset. It can be annoying and not take it but it will work after a while.
So to remove the card from the Google Wallet app, do the following:
1) Open Google Wallet
2) Enter your pin
3) Tap "Payment cards"
4) Tap your Citi Mastercard.
5) Remove
Google Prepaid Cards: This one is a bit trickier. Your funds will NOT transfer if you flash automatically. Meaning, it is not bound to your Google account. (STUPID I KNOW!) You will need to know a few things.
Your Google Prepaid Card User ID (prior to flashing)
Your Google Prepaid Card User ID (after flashing)
Your Balance on the card.
Your Google account linked to the account (FOR WHAT?!!?!?!?!?! I don't know)
Write down your Google Prepaid Card User ID.
1) Open Google Wallet
2) Enter your pin
3) Tap "Payment cards"
4) Tap "Google Prepaid Card"
5) Wait for your User ID to load and then tap "Show ID" to see your entire ID number. Write this down BEFORE FLASHING OR CLEARING DATA.
If you have both, remove them both with the instructions above before proceeding.
DO NOT CONTINUE WITHOUT READING EVERYTHING ABOVE! YOU CAN POSSIBLY LOSE FUNDS! YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!
Once you have removed your Citi Mastercard or have all the information needed for your Google Prepaid Card User ID, you need to then reset Google Wallet or you will break your Secure Element on your phone and Google Wallet will never work again.
WARNING: THIS WILL RESET EVERYTHING AND ERASE EVERYTHING ON YOUR DEVICE IN TERMS OF GOOGLE WALLET! IF YOU DON'T HAVE YOUR ID YET THEN DON'T
To Reset Google Wallet do the following:
1) Open Google Wallet
2) Enter your pin
3) Tap your Menu Button
4) Tap Settings
5) Tap "Reset Google Wallet"
Once you do this you are good to go and flash a custom ROM. You can wipe data, cache, dalvik without an issue.... till you have to get your money back.
After you have set up your new ROM, do the following:
Citi Mastercard Holders: You have to call back Citi Mastercard to make sure it has been reset and if it is, you can try to add your Citi Mastercard back to your Google Wallet account like you did before. It may take a few tries. If you have issues adding your card, call Citi's Tech Support, NOT GOOGLE OR MONEY NETWORK!
Google Prepaid Card: First get the Google Prepaid Card User ID on the NEW ROM.
If you are too lazy to scroll up it is:
1) Open Google Wallet
2) Enter your pin
3) Tap "Payment cards"
4) Tap "Google Prepaid Card"
5) Wait for your User ID to load and then tap "Show ID" to see your entire ID number. Write this down BEFORE CALLING MONEY NETWORK TO MAKE YOUR LIFE EASIER.
Once you have this information, you can call Money Network to have them transfer funds. Their number is (855) 896-0693.
Make sure to tell them you switched phones, you go the User ID for both phones and that you Reset Google Wallet on the old phone and cleared data.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
What a headache. I don't know if it will stop me from flashing like crazy but I doubt it! GOOD LUCK!

I hope this helped you. If it has, please click thanks!
Hi there,
my question might seem to be a little odd, so I will explain the reason first...
in my university lab 6 of our android devices (and an iphone 5) got stolen. the thief might have sold the devices, I'm not really sure. anyhow - one of the devices still had our lab-gmail-account logged in so i could install androidlost and get at leas some control over one of our stolen nexus 7.
I was able to get gps coordinates, the WiFi name + IP address as well as some pictures of the person that has the device right not. unfortunately the police told me that gps wouldn't help, as there are possibly 150 persons in the street where the device is, that have the potential to be criminal...getting the owner of the connection via IP is also not likely, because a judge needs to approve the locating via ISP and before that happens, the telecommunications company will have deleted the data -.- I've seen they added a new gmail account after I changed our password. but it's just something like "[email protected]", so nothing that tells me the name.
with androidlost I can also start a web-server and browse the sdcard of the device. unfortunately the device is not rootet, so I can't browse to /data/data to gather more information.
so (finally ) here is my question:
is there any app that saves it's data to the sdcard which uses the facebook ID?
I mean in any logfile or something...maybe an app that automatically starts at boot, so i can be sure the app leaves it's trace on the sdcard.
I can still install apps via play store and if i could retreive the facebook ID in any way, there would still be a chance to catch the thief...
I'm also open for other creative ideas to retreive the identity...
EDIT: before anyone gets me wrong - I don't want the password or login to the account - all I need is the facebook ID (or name...) so I might find out the real name and give it to the police...
So, a few months ago, I tucked my Amaze 4G phone away b/c I got a new phone with a different carrier. I reset it too and so all my accounts were removed. I doubt I threw out my SIM card, but, it's not in my phone, I probably put it away somewhere.
I then read about how I can use my old phone as a GPS. I first had to root my phone.
So, I found this forum and I got to step 3 based on this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1426377
I did get a successful message (I can't remember the message now, but, it seemed successful), but, what exactly does it do? Should I have an extra recovery file on my computer or phone? I don't see any new file created on my computer. So, I just want to make sure it worked properly before moving on.
At the same time, I tried logging into Google Play using the app, it doesn't work. It says username and password mismatch. I tried it using my browser and I can log in. Does it have to do with not having a sim card. Do I have to have a carrier to log into Google Play app. I tried adding the account in the the settings and it still says I can't log in. Any ideas. I tried countless times, it can't be a username / password mismatch. I tried it several times on the browser without a hitch. Why is that?
I'd like to install a gps app on my phone, but, I can't log into the Google Play app.

So you're connecting over wifi? The sign-in may not work from a phone until you've told the setup app to try again, then press settings before inputting username/password, and selecting browser log-in.
The browser will open on your phone, and you can sign-in that way. You most likely had 2-step authentication enabled, and the sign-in setup doesn't account for that, thus the browser. The second part of the verification will be whatever you've set up with google for the second step--be assured though that if it's a code texted to your phone, you can't receive it on an old gsm phone without a sim card--you'll have to receive it on the new phone, then input it into the field in the old phone.

I see, that worked. Thanks.
I guess I'll put my other question in a separate thread.
