How the heck does tap and pay work??? - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I tried using tap and pay at Starbucks and it didn't work, but it says it's set up in settings and in Google Wallet.
So how does it work?

You tap and pay.
But seriously: did the Starbucks have a PayPass terminal? It should look something like below. If so, what happened when you tapped it?

No, they didn't. It was similar to that, but it was more of a bar code scanner.

I'll have to try it here in New Zealand next time I see one if those payment options and see if it works.

Google wallet is US only. You would need another app that takes advantage of NFC and tap to pay.

Sorry I don't know of any. I would assume that at some point there will be more digital wallets utilizing nfc. I would be really suprised if PayPal doesn't get in the game really soon.

To pay at Starbucks you need their mobile app which has a barcode that will scan at their scanner, I use it all the time. You an connect a gift card to the mobile app and then have that gift card auto reloaded by your credit card.

Try & checkout your local McD's to see they are participating and/or rolling out the pilot program, namely ISIS Mobile Payment system - details here - http://nrn.com/blog/what-they-didnt-tell-you-about-mcdonalds-mobile-payments-trials
I do recall seeing a similar terminal (didn't pay much attention to details) recently at the local McD while getting coffee in the morning - next to thte cash register, not sure if it was functional.
I suppose the demographic profiles of the junk-food consumer going to Golden Arches are more aligned with using smartphones like N5 with NFC enabled, oookkkaaayyy.

I was at Jack in the Box last week when I looked down and saw the "sideways wifi symbol" of PayPass. I had already setup Wallet on my phone so I gave it a try. It worked great. I tapped, my phone asked me for my pin, and then a few seconds later a receipt for my meal popped up on my phone. Later that night I tried at the CVS. I had read somewhere that if you are asked for a option (debit, credit....) choose credit. That is what I did at the CVS and all was well.
I am not sure how useful paying with Google Wallet is, but it sure was fun. The Jack in the Box lady told me I was only the 2nd person she saw pay like that...... trend setter and all

Hmm Mobile Defense looks quite interesting, im going to give that a shot.
Wave secure is better because you can remote wipe!
I cant use both because they both dont support google voice SMSs
Why pick? I use them both. Yes, I'm that paranoid.

Smart man.
I've been using Mobile Defense since it first went public last year. I haven't had to use it yet except to beep my phone to find it if I misplace it in my house.
I wanted to try Wave Secure but I thought I read something about costing minutes or something so I just left it alone.
Can you install it as a system app like Mobile Defense so it runs hidden and can't be uninstalled? Can you enable the GPS remotely from a web page?

Nah wave secure doesn't cost anything I don't think, had it for a while now, never had to use it yet though.
The first time you install it and open it, it prompts you to go into the marketplace and download a specific app which makes wave secure immune to being uninstalled.
Can't enable gps either, if your gps is not on when you lose the phone tuff luck. When I tried it without gps being on it tracked me to the nearest cell tower (which is about 5kms away from where I am) good luck finding your phone then.
Does mobile defense offer the option to remotely turn on gps? I have yet to give it a try
May be good to note that wavesecure is international whereas mobile defense is only available in america for now

Texts from WaveSecure webpage to your phone are sent from Singapore. (Check out the WaveSecure webpage screenshot in the middle in red text.)
A few days after I first was playing around with it, my T-Mobile account did indeed note texts from Singapore. Luckily, they didn't charge me extra, but other carriers may be different.
-----
I don't know if either program can turn on GPS remotely. Does anyone know for sure? I haven't seen that option.
WaveSecure though the website can tell you where the phone is.
WaveSecure doesnt send text's etc without you knowing, i.e. when you want to locate phone, wipe it, lock it. These are done by Text so I dont think it would matter if you get charged as it's only if you lose it...

Sonuva... I didn't see the whole singapore deal... since you mentioned it I decided to check and Tmobile definitely charged me for it. It's kind of bogus, too, because the number doesn't use country codes.
Bah.
I think I might jump over to mobile defense... I'm not sure what I was messing with, but wavesecure managed to send out 25 SMS messages from my phone. I can only think of one incident where it should have done it... I got a new SIM card and it sms'd my buddy list that they should notify me that my sim card was changed. Other than that, I haven't tooled around with it.
Lame

WTF? Who pays to receive texts? What does it matter where they come from? Mars as far as I care.
Can WaveSecure/Mobile Defense activate GPS if it is turned off if they are installed as system apps? I thought I read it could somewhere but I don't remember.
I go for mobile defense
Mobile Defense when you track your phone it gives you the exact street and house number of where the phone is.......Wave Secure dont!!!... Wave Secure has other tools to maximize security but at the end you just want to know where the hell is the phone to go and get it....
Mobile defense will turn on gps if your rooted
Sent from my Nexus One using the XDA mobile application powered by Tapatalk
I'm wondering why people like WaveSecure so much? I think Mobile Defense looks better, cleaner, and helps you find your phone easier, and doesn't have the Singapore texts. Maybe I should have named the thread differently asking why people like WaveSecure so much
Or does it have nothing to do with the functionality, and just that Mobile Defense is US only?

Play Store vulnerability.

I recently was thinking about something, I decided to test it out.
On the Play Store app, you can choose to add a pin number, and make this pin be required to make purchases.
This is a good idea, as we don't want anyone charging our credit cards or carrier bills if our device gets lost/stolen.
However, there is a flaw in this. The aforementioned pin number is stored locally on the device, whilst the credit card info is connected to your google account, and obviously your carrier billing options are stored online.
All someone has to do to be able to make purchases on a supposed secure play store is go to Settings>Applications>All>Google Play Store and click clear data. No more pin.

The fix to this would obviously be that google have the pin be connected to your google account, instead of stored locally on the device.
Reported to Google. PLEASE STAR THE ISSUE! Will help it get to the people that can fix the problem!

Good find man! Definitely opens up my eyes, as my little brother has a phone with my google account on it, because of all the apps I've bought-en, and I enabled the pin feature on it.
Wow... way to drop the ball on that one google!!!
Yeah. Not sure they've ever thought of it or not.

What?I haven't made any purchases yet, but my friends come to me on some days and they could buy paid apps.This must be fixed soon.
I notice this a lot when I update my ROM. Because it doesn't come packaged with gapps (well it wouldn't, it's illegal to do that), the data gets cleared when you reinstall the play store, thus no more pin. As I update daily, I never have the pin for more than one day, which is a major security flaw IMO

Thanks guys, added that in a comment on the google code page.
Actually, I believe that function is more of a "Child Lock". The screen lock/wipe is supposedly what prevents stolen phones from being used. In most cases, someone that usually knows your password (Of course, adb enabled phones can have their screen lock disabled). That's usually your kids that use your phone for games, watching videos, etc. That's what the pin is for - blocking them from downloading paid stuff without your knowledge. I suppose Google doesn't think that they would be the ones who will be hacking your phone, and of course, not be the ones who steal your phone.
Just added a link to the google support issue page in a few of my newer videos, and in a few of my most popular videos!

Hi there, just wanted to share my latest app. Amazon daily app
If you are a user of the Amazon app-shop like me, you may have encounter the same problem as me:
- Being "forced" to download the free app of the day to add it to your account
Well you can still cancel the download once it's launch, but hey ... it was bothering me.
So here it is, with "Amazon daily app" you can see what is the app of the day, add it to your account, or download it (still need to get it by the amazon app).
Feel free to leave me comments and remarks.
If you do like the app or just want to help, a nice comment/rate on the app sotre wil be appreciated
And if you don't like it, there's plenty of apps that will certainly suit you on XDA (but no rate & comment will be appreciated ^^)
Play store link : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.chimerique.AmazonDailyFreeApps.free
Cheers :highfive:
I've been waiting for this. I use the "free app of the day" app, but they're mostly things I'm not interested in so it'll be uninstalled soon. I much prefer the Amazon free apps, but unfortunately this isn't compatible with my phone (HTC One).
I'll be all over this as soon as I can be
Strange, can you tell me which version of Android you are running on your phone ?
Should definitly be compatible ...

It probably is more likely to be a version issue than a device issue. I'm on 4.2.2.

It works for me now too. Thanks for sorting that
Edit: Why does it need login credentials? You don't need them to find out what the free app is.
Not that the app is not useful but you can also bookmark http://www.amazon.com/mobile-apps/b/ref=topnav_storetab_mas?ie=UTF8&node=2350149011 from pc or mobile device to see the app of the day and "purchase" it without downloading. This will work for all devices period.

True, that's why at the beginning I only wanted to load the webpage, and play with custom CSS, in sort to see only needed information, and have a more user friendly interface. But performance wasn't really there, so I decided to go a bit further in the process
The other objective (not sure it should be done) is to automate all this process, and just grab every day the free app. This is only if I found a nice way to keep the session open (token or whatever)
@Archer: The credential are not needed to see what's the free app. It's only asked once you decide to "buy" it (for free) with your amazon account. Basically the credential is always ask to authenticate yourself to amazon website, as I don't want (for now) to store your password.
Hi there, little heads up for the last version which now can give you a daily reminder!
Some people did ask for it, so I added the possibility to save your password and so not have to type it each time.
The password is encrypted and save.
But still be aware that this is no safe mesure, and you should definitly use a dummy account for this.

Nope deleted for sure. I can clear the notification, but it comes back after a couple of days. I don't remember what the options where when clicking the dots, but I think it was just "do you want to keep receiving updates based on your emails?"

Hey guys, App hoarder is now out of beta and would for some of you guys to check it out. Leave any feedback here
Hey, it sounds great.
I love free app and have installed a free downloader (InsTube video download) in my phone and want to install more.
So I am curious about App Hoarder and will use the app if it offers some apps totally for free (Does "paid apps gone free" means the apps are free now and users won't be charged after using them for a period?)

It means that a paid app is on sale and the sale price is 0, so its free. You won't be charged anything.
When you purchase an app while its in sale it will still be yours when the sale is over. You don't even have to wait for it to finish downloading. You can cancel the download and the app will still be recorded as purchased by you.

Your welcome
This is very cool and works as intended.
Any plans to add discounted items as well?
Great app ???, things would be nice to add:
Dark/ Black theme
Multiple account login to check apps purchased from all accounts
Publish in play store, still wondering why haven't you done that, its a great app.

Wow thanks for the suggestions, dark theme is in the works, multiple account might take me some time to implement.

The app's focus is on free apps, but I am planning on adding this in future updates.
How do you access the filters? I don't see it in Settings.

Discounted item qould be good but both should have different sections otherwise it would be a mess.

It's in the 3 dot menu, top right. I'm planning on making its own button to make it more visible.

Focusing more on 'on sale for free' apps, AppSales is already better at handling discounted apps.
