I'm setting up a VZW SGS3 for a relative but can't activate it on his line until I see him next week, so I've been using my own SIM to set everything up. If I install Google Wallet and then swap SIMs, will that cause any problems?
Thanks
Don't think so.
The checks that are done to verify whether you are eligible for installing the app are based off of the build.props file. And, SIM card doesn't have anything to do with it.
Yeh sim don't have nothing to do with the Google wallet

I've been having a problem lately with my Captivate. At my work there's a complete dead zone where I lose reception completely (the 4 bars are replaced by a circle with a cross through it). However, when I leave work and go back home the reception never comes back - I've waited and waited and waited, but it still stays Xed out.
The phone requires a restart, and after that it picks up reception normally.
has anyone experienced this?
Did you try enabling flight mode, then turning it back off? Same effect as restarting the phone for your signal problem.
But in answer to your question, I've never had that problem. I have had a problem getting my signal back, but I just hold the phone in the open for a bit, and then stick it in my pocket again once I obtain service.

I have, and it doesn't work. I have to turn the phone off and back on again.
I have the exact same issue.
I was having the same problem. They changed out the SIM card and have not had the problem sense. If your SIM has been through a few phones my not hurt to get a new one.

Thanks, I just ordered a new SIM card online. My existing one is 4 years old and scratched up like crazy, that may be it.
On a different note, once I receive my new SIM card does anyone know how to associate it with my plan? The ebay listing for the SIM card said to do it through the following website but I'm not sure which option is correct ("upgrade phone" perhaps?)

For simplicities sake and for your own safety, take it into at&t and have them do it. At least you know it will be done correctly.

If you get a new sim just call at&t and tell them you need to change the sim number.

I've been through many AT&T stores and they always charge me $25 for a new SIM. How'd you get free ones?

You must be going to private franchises because AT&T charges them for SIMs. If you call 611, they would make a notation to your account that you get a free one and the franchise would get reimbursed by AT&T.
I had to get a new SIM with my phone and it experiences this same issue. Has anybody had any luck with getting rid of the problem?

I don't believe they were private. They are regular at&t stores. But next time I'm definitely calling 611 for my similar problems

i have the same issue. i got a new sim when i got the phone and i rarely touch the sim. I bought the phone on launch day and have only just started seeing the issue. it seems to me that it started after the OTA patch but it is still happening after i flashed Cognition v2.1.7
My phone (4.1.2) has the NFC sim but when I run Isis it says phone not supported, can't read element id. I have not rooted or unlocked this phone but it is not new so how can I tell if perhaps the phone has been altered and thus Isis is rejecting it?

Well don't look on the web to see a pic of the difference between the LTE sim and the NFC sim it is wrong. What is needed is NFC on the sim instead of 3FF.
The CSR SWORE she was sending me the right sim card.
Attempt #2.......

Well GW was easier to set up than Isis, Isis had to do a verification process twice to add a card PITA.
Other than that, tap and pay is tap and pay.
Just throwing this out there: the SIM has absolutely NOTHING to do with NFC.

You're incredibly wrong. ISIS relies on a secure element that's built into special SIM cards. Without that SIM, your NFC payments will not work.
Ok, I rooted my GS3 a few weeks ago and now my Isis wallet won't work. it gives me an error stating that my phone is rooted. I think it has to do with superSU being installed on the internal memory. Someone told me to uninstall SU and then reinstall onto the SD card and it would work. I tried that and ended up having to flash a back up, then re-flashing the Rom. I don't really want to screw this up again but I really need to get Isis working. Please help.

Most XDA users that live in locations that ISIS is active (such as SLC) are boycotting the service because scumbag VZW blocked GWallet. It would be easier to load Wallet on your rooted phone.

Thats about right, I live in SLC and refuse to let ISIS anywhere near my phone. Not even when they had the promotion that was basically free public transportation when using ISIS to pay.
Isis is active everywhere, i live it in nj and used it all the time before root. I wish someone could get both google wallet and isis working on verizon galaxy s3.
waking an old thread but rooted and would like to use isis, how would one go about? i have nfc sim

I highly doubt you will ever find a solution to this. As I stated before, Verizon blocking Google Wallet ticked off most potential isis users. Anyway, good luck with finding a fix.

I just purchased a 16gb Nexus 5 through the Google Play store. It is my understanding that this can be activated on Sprint and AT&Ts network.
I plan on initially activating my device under my current Sprint account (should be easy, call it in and have them activate the device by the IMEI/DEC). Right?
However, eventually I will be moving to AT&T...does anyone know how this change of carriers will work or if it is even possible? and if it is possible what steps need to be taken? Is it as simple as flashing new radios and switching out a SIM card?
Thanks in advance
It's GSM unlocked, just put in your AT&T sim card and you're all set

Yes, as it has the necessary bands and just to double check I verified with AT&T. i was a little worried after my purchase and google play did not list them as carriers
Hey guys, i have a rooted and soffed m8 currently running viperrom. I plan on switching the phone around to another line soon. Will anything the reps do flag that my phone has been modded? Also, if they will be able to know, is there anyway to return the phone to complete stock and not have the tampered sign on the fastboot screen? Thanks guys
Is it an existing line on your account? If so, you just need to pop in the SIM card from that line without vzw even touching it. If you're adding a line and want to put the m8 on it, just call them and have them send out a SIM to you. You don't even need to have them see the device if I understand your intentions.

As far as I know carriers don't care unless you are trying to claim a warranty then there is a small chance they could void it.

I was under the impression that the 4g sim card only gave you service, and did not switch your number and everything?? Sorry, to clarify, I will be swapping phones with another person on my plan. (All with Verizon) The other person is using their upgrade, and then we are trading phones, but want to keep our numbers.
Sim card changes phones numbers and everything, I do it all the time. Only issue you might run into is if the sim cards are different sizes, then you need to either get crafty with scissors or have Verizon activate the actual sim cards.

Crafty with scissors works just fine. I just trimmed down my micro SIM from my G2 to use in my new m8. Getting the nano to micro adapter to swap back whenever I want to.

I think you might be able to do what you want on the VZW website w/o having anyone actually see the phone, if so, you have no worries.
