Google Wallet - Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Anyone here using Google Wallet? Would like to know how well/not well it's working out. And would it be possible to use a regular Nexus S?

At launch it will only be for NS4G, but I think it will likely come to the T-Mobile version very soon. I'd just as soon let the Sprint guys work out the bugs for us, anyways

It's not out yet. It's supposed to be live this Summer. You can sign up for updates at http://google.com/wallet .

Ya, hopefully all the bugs will be fixed before its available. I can't wait, going to take a pic of my drivers license and I'll be all set. Lol.
Already signed up .

The new Google Shopper requires NFC permissions.

Hmmm, I didn't notice that when I updated the app. Thanks. Things are moving along .

Android 2.0 Eclair.

I was wondering these few days that whether HTC or Google itself will release Enclair for our Magics or not. Seriously, i was so excited after i watch the google nav beta vid. Enclair seem to work flawlessly. what do you all think about?
I'm excited for one.
I think before we see custom ROM's on 2.0 HTC has to release their own so dev's can start working.

Nah, only at first.
As time goes by and the maps have been re-written, they will come out everywhere else also.
What good is US-only navigation on a cell phone? No good if you ask me.
oh that's a shame I didnt' realise it wasn't available outside of USA...... same with Google Voice :*(

why is this thread not locked yet
Guys,
why there are no 2.0 unofficial ROM yet?
I remember long time before 1.5 was released for common users, It was possible to compile and install it from source.

Google hasn't released their source and the devs are hard at work trying to fix the million bugs while porting it. Fix one, 5 more appear.
yeah, we still need to wait for the original htc source b4 we can do anything stupid

I've thought that Motorola (which was released last Friday) supposed to have the 2.0. So why google still hiding the sources?

[REQUEST] Where.apk

Does anyone have the apk for the app called Where? It comes on the backflip and is available on the droid but I cant seem to find it in the market with my ATT N1 due to some kind of firmware issue. Any help is appreciated.

Hmm, weird. I can download it off the market on my N1 just fine.
Lemme know if that link the other gentleman provided doesn't work, ill try to up it to my DropBox.
google is aware of the problem. its only the att versions that are having issues seeing all of the apps in the market
Isn't ATT 'controlling' certain things about the market? Maybe that's why it's not showing on your ATT N1?
i think they may be because i read somewhere that if i put a t mobile sim in the phone i wouldnt have a problem. hell i dunno.
I don't have these issues with my N1 on ATT. *shrug*
having the same problem with ATT N1 missing Market apps. Attached is a newer version of Where app, 1.88, i think. 1.90 is newest, but can't grab. would appreciate if someone could UL the latest.
I emailed with Tech Support at Where. They said there was a contract issue with AT&T. Appears that if you want where, you have to pay AT&T each month and have one of the approved where handsets.
Could someone that has access to a newer version of Where 1.9 post either a download link or attach the file here in the forum.
We ATT folks would much appreciate it.
Thank you
Where 1.9.1

Do you have a specfic source since I see you are on ATT as well?
Well, screw ATT. I was looking for an app like this just yesterday and nothing looked good so I decided to stick to google maps. Are there any other known apps that ATT is screwing us on?

Thank You Very Much! For Some Reason My Boost Mobile Motorola i1 can't access some of these apps on the Market. My assumptions it's because it runing on Android 1.5. Hopefully they will release an update soon considering 3.0 is rumored to be released soon.

Thanks. There is a new version out. Can you please share it too?
You guys really find the app that useful?
The only useful stuff I found it did, Google local search already does.
Any who, here is Where 1.9.6
Where is the only app I've seen that gives a decent listing of gas prices nearby, anyone have any better suggestions?
I'd be happy to take back the 5-6M of storage it takes up..... Yikes.
Zipcar
It is also the only zipcar app for android.
If you use AppBrain and the new fast web install they have, you can install it from the AppBrain website. It still won't show up in the market for updates, but you can probably get it updated the same way.

FINALLY! Official Google Navigation for Canada

It's about freaking time. The BRUT hack is awesome but it's nice to have the official stuff work.
http://googlemobile.blogspot.com/2010/06/fun-on-autobahn-google-maps-navigation.html
Great news, thanks for the heads up! I was actually in the process of shopping around for a paid app that did this.
awesome..,
still not available for dowload on the market though

Not sure about everyone in the world but my X10 here in Canada came with the google Navigator app pre installed.
well, the app is installed, its just won't work lol.
it's too late now but before when you try to navigate it will not find a route.
Brut is awesome tho, so I am just glad that it works now.
However, I am messing with Brut's caching function so I might still use brut's map for general map search.

I don't know what you guys are talking about but it works here in Victoria, BC Canada. I just did a test from my house to Wendys =). It gave me turn by turn and was impressed with the accuracy of the route. It was quite smooth when turning too. I purposely made a different turn and not follow and it would automatically re-route. Nice

Does it show you the street view all the time? Mines only shows the pic when you need to turn. that's it.... Don't know why.
Hmm. Mine still says navigation is not available in my area (south western Ontario). Anyone else getting this?

You mean the map? It does. It would also say the street name when it needs me to turn.
For those trying to find the "new" version on the market. IT DOES NOT EXIST.
Canadian navigation has just been unlocked on Google's end. The 4.2.0 version that you have, that has been out for awhile, will work for navigation now.
got it on x10i.
works really well. bus routes was awesome.

It turns out that it is not available from the market in Canada but I installed it and it seems to work now.
Sorry to drag this old post back up but I just got my X10 last night (coming from HTC Magic) Simple question (most likely dumb) does this use your data at all or is the same as using a standard GSP? I seem to hit my data limit every month just don't want to push it over.
Thanks
Clinton
Yep, is using data.
Thanks, guess it wasn't a stupid question after all. That's interesting, guess I'll be using the GPS instead. Not much of a feature then is it.

It uses data, but not alot of it. I'd say about 1 mb for about an hour of driving, give or take.
I downloaded it from the market and it works for me.

Google wallet update for att nexus?

Does anybody have the apk that will work on the I9020a? I have the original but would like the update. Thanks
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
Google hooked up with Sprint for exclusivity.
Shame, really as the NFC on the great majority of Nexus Ss is currently useless.
I really hate these back room exclusive corporate deals. Makes zero sense.
He has it working already on the 9020a. He is asking for the updated. Apk to update the version he has.

The apk will not work without the hack to get wallet to work in the first place..
Dude just worry about getting your phone running again first.

That's my thought exactly!
Looks like they're trying to get rid of the remaining stock.
Probably means nothing but my hope is that they are going to release new products. I don't see why they would enroll into the Android P beta program just to drop the phone a few months later.
If you want to release a home device you need a customer base as big as you can get. This is one way to increase the numbers.
bought one...can't wait to use it

I was thinking this too, make a big sale wave in the phone market, grab attention, and build up more users...
I wonder how long it will take to ship? Hoping to get mine by the end of next week for a trip. Looking forward to playing around with it
@antmunny & @rambleon84, let us know when you get it, how you like it.
@DoR3M3: Thanks for posting that deal! I can't wait to see how well it works with Android P. They may well be clearing the shelves for new and improved items!

This is specifically about the 360 cam FB live function. But okay. Was just checking maybe someone else that got it from this deal has the same problem, or not.

To Skin or Unskin, that is the question? LOL
I managed to snag one of these literally minutes before the sale ended. Bought it, went back to the page 30 minutes later and it was back up to $49. Can't wait to get it, may need to get a different case though.
