Probably thinks it helps the "Black Helicopters" find you.

I removed it too. It drained my battery once and isn't used outside the US and Canada anyway so it's pretty useless for many among us, for now.
@OP, there is a flashable zip to uninstall the wallet, I've used it numerous times and it has always worked, in attachment.

Don't think anyone knows but i hope they get it.
Don't know either but my fingers are crossed. My guess is that aosp is a little too "open" for Verizon's likes.

Verizon likes to junk up their phones with all kinds of bloatware.
verizon LTE + nexus would be a smash hit...

Agreed. Verizon won't pass up a chance for extra revenue that Blockbuster & similar crapware can generate.

they bent over backwards for apple...
Currently I don't care for an pure google phone becuase i'd probably root it and installed CM7. But it would be nice to get one.

They bent over backwards for Apple because they have been kicking themselves since they passed on the iPhone the first time. They saw the chance to steal a big amount of AT&T iPhone users and jumped. Now if they actually stole a lot of AT&T iPhone users is a different matter. I don't think they stole that many so far. I think when the next iPhone comes out, they will see a big influx.

What do you mean? Google phones are MADE for rooting and flashing custom ROMs.... and in fact the Nexus 1 and Nexus S both have CM7.

I said what I said because Verizon changed their closed ways for a iphone... Not sure why they wouldn't do it for an Android phone. The nexus phones are sellers as well and if they really want to take away users from all carriers (not just at&t) they need to have one in their line up.
They will be able to take advantage of having the fastest network (while they still can) with a 4G nexus phone.
Talk about killing it! They would rape the competition having an iPhone and a 4G nexus phone.
The time is now if they are smart.
No one remembers the droid 1 with STOCK 2.0? The Xoom with STOCK 3.0 even?

xoom was only stock because they didnt have time to mess it up, not because moto was trying to be ambivalent. They wanted to rush it out before the ipad2.

Why. I had a nexus one running cm7 and now I have a Tbolt running cm7. Yes there's a lot of development support for the device but im happy with the tbolt.

Another $10 from Google wallet?

I recently went back to stock unrooted after using Pete's ics for a few days and went to sign into Google wallet. I got a welcome email and also received another $10 credit as if it was my first time using this which is wasn't. Has anyone else experienced this? I'm not complaing lol cause free money is free money; however, I really don't want to owe them in the end.
Spend that ten quickly before big brother find out.

Did you use the same account for Google or a different one??? Just curious why and how you got the $10 again.

Yea its the same account with the same user id. Not sure why it happened though. Maybe ill try it a few hundred more times lol.

They are supposed to do it one time only since they use a serial number from your phone but apparently it somehow was changed would be my guess between your rooted ics and unrooted roms.
I got it twice one time as well I didn't understand why but I didn't care

It gave me another ten bucks as well. I still have 10 bucks on my other phone but they are different account numbers so hopefully I have 20 bucks now.

I doubt you would owe them since its a bug on their end. I say tell us if you really can spend the $20 then we can do it 20 times to buy new pair pants. Then change our user names.

Google Wallet seems to rely on the IMEI to determine if you are a new wallet user or not, despite using the same gmail account in gwallet on multiple devices, thus giving each device $10 in their wallet.
I bought my GNex in March, and installed wallet on it sometime after that for the first time ever. Of course, I got the $10. I didn't actually get to use it until recently, simply to not encoutnering anything that used NFC payments until I began attending college in Florida- all their vending machines are NFC enabled.
Shortly after starting school, my phone began acting very odd. Something was wrong with the battery controller, not the battery itself, resulting in very odd and frustrating battery issues. Anyways, I sent my phone in, since it was still under warranty, to be replaced. Kept the same SIM card, used the same gmail account on it, all that jazz.
Well, I of course put wallet back on it. To my surprise, the free $10 was given to me, even though I signed in with the same gmail account as on the faulty phone.
So, if you ever have to send in your device for replacement, spend that money before you do because you will probably get another 10.
Hey, we didn't do anything to exploit it. It's all on Google, here. Their mistake I suppose.
I did get any free money

(NOT) working google wallet

I found this over in the int. one x forums. it's a hacked google wallet apk. I tryed it, does install. have not tryed to buy anything yet...
I take no credit for this, just sharing link.

Same here, not working. Was really looking forward to using this too...

i got the app installed fine, set permissions and all. Now i get a missing secure element error... sigh ....
Nice find, I'll check it out in a bit
It won't work. The AT&T version stores NFC secure element keys differently than the International versions. I think it is in two separate files for ISIS

bummer, got to love having this useless device (nfc) in my phone, Google made an easy way to use it and AT&T blocks it for a product that probably won't be out until I am eligible for another upgrade

But paypal only works to another phone also using paypal, correct?
I would use this every day if it would work...because like others said, ISIS looks like it won't be out in the near future, and so it seems like we're stuck with nothing unless we get this working somehow...

Correct, the other person needs to have Paypal and nfc. I think nfc payments by isis might be available by the end of the year in time for the holidays (if they are smart). We'll see.

IDEA: Some are saying that AT&T is blocking wallet from working even if you got it installed and registered.
Some have also mentioned vpns working though, so could we hypothetically use that Onavo Extend app to get past it? Once we figure the app itself out I mean...

I cursed out ATT on twitter for blocking google wallet. you should do the same. let's create a twitter **** storm for ATT and let them know we're not happy.

Why isn't my phone getting the new Play store?

I'm still not on the newest version.. any reason?

Where are you? If you desperately want it just install the .apk, it takes about 10 seconds to do.
I'm in the US another family member on the same contract ( xperia play ) even has it..

Im on ICS.. go figure..this doesnt really upset me due to the fact that im getting a new phone ( Droid DNA ) Wednesday!
I don't think it's worth it. The old one looks way more organised and simple. I won't even bother installing the new Store's .apk
Well that's my opinion, you may like it better
Mine just installed automatically when I connected to the wifi.
solution
You have to go to services and clean the cache on the market processes. I had to do that with my droid x a long time ago.
Sometimes it just takes a while. On my phone once, I cleared it and force stopped it several times and it didn't update until a couple hours later.

No. I, too, think the new one looks hideous. Too much like it's trying to be iOS for my taste.

I believe the new one looks hideous, the old one is way better. But of course, we will get used to it in the future (do we have any other choice?).
Anyway, to answer the thread, it depends on the country you are in. Usually, they update per country (if it is available to you).

Anyone know if VZ is still making a special announcment today?

Part of me hopes it is the HTC One...but then I know Verizon will screw it up from the onset, then constantly lock it down so no one can get s-off and there will be very little good development. You know all the things that kept me from the DNA.

OH BOY do I KNOW!
I sold my DNA for the SG3!
I honestly don't even know if I'd get the HTC One at this point, I know a new one will come out like a month later. lol
honestly I don't even miss HTC anymore, I really did at first.
don't have to worry about S-OFF,
you can flash radios, no worries, way too much crap can go wrong on HTC and they lock it down way too hard. I hate buying a phone, and having to wait 2-3 months before I can delete all the CRAP VZW put on the phone causing me bad battery life
