And Just Like That – Google Wallet Has Been Successfully Installed On The Verizon Galaxy Nexus

This article has some info. You have to be rooted and you can download it through Rom Manager.

It's not showing up anywhere in ROM Manager on my LTE GNex...people in the comments for that article are mentioning a ZIP you can download somewhere?

[APP] Flashable Google Wallet for Galaxy Nexus (1.1-R41v8) [Last Update: 16/12/2011] - Page 19 - xda-developers

I"m a bit lost with the whole process though. I don't see at any point where they say where to install the APK's or what all the other files are in the .ZIP file

I just did it.
You need to download the zip.
You need to flash it with CW Recovery.
Then while you're still in recovery, you pull the file, fix the file, then push it back.

Gonna go try and spend my free $10

Edit: it worked! I tapped it more than once and i think it might have force closed, but it paid for my item and the balance was adjusted when I reopened the app.

ahhh I got ya...flash the zip file!!! DUR I'm re-tah-did today!

First NFC enabled phone, how do you use NFC after setting up Google Wall? Does every store accept NFC payments? Can I add my own debit/credit cards to work with NFC? You just "tap" the back of your phone on the stores card reader?

it only works with the google prepaid card and if you have a citibank card. Also if you are familiar with paypass ( you just presss your credit card up to the reader instead of swiping and signing and all that business) anywhere that has paypas will accept an NFC payment with google wallet. As for how you do it with your phone I have never personally used google wallet so I can't speak to that but I am assuming it must be easy once you get the app.

can't get adb shell mount /data to mount. it constantly says that it's busy...

Try rebooting into recovery if you're still in CWR after flashing Wallet

mine gave me an error there, too, but it pulled the file fine, so perhaps it was already mounted?

I do, by the way, have the "optimizing applications" thing going on, that was mentioned in the xda thread... seems the one guy who isn't having that issue, or hasn't mentioned it, is having trouble keeping CWRecovery sticking... so maybe that's related?

CWM isn't sticking for anyone from what I've read. You're going to have to use ROM Manager to flash CWM before you need to boot into recovery to flash something. Pain in the butt, yes, but I'm sure it's only temporary

mine is sticking. I used the rootzwiki method of rooting. Those last couple steps say they make it stick, I think.

What does pull the file, fix the file and push it back mean? I have understood all the other steps but I don't get this one because I have never done something like this.

 

[BringTheRain403]

You have to pull the file off your phone and then chance some if the code and push it back into your device to get it to work...

delete or rename /system/recovery-from-boot.p to get CWM to stick. it's sticking just fine for me, through quite a few reboots...

 

[BringTheRain403]

Has anyone else been getting a window when they first boot-up that says "Android Is Updating" and then proceeds to "optimize" a shit load of programs (which takes forever)?

If so how do we fix it?

are there any better noob proof instructions? I'm unlocked, rooted and got the cwm working fine, but I dont quite understand how and what is being modified after you flash the file.

I would wait, they're still working the bugs out of this method.

If you still want to do it I'm sure someone will help you.

It's not sticking because you haven't deleted or renamed recovery-from-boot.p in your /system folder , that file restores the stock recovery on boot do that and it'll stick

yeah, i messed around with it and never got it working right, had the same problem with all of the apps counting right before start up.

Ya that's the only reason I've passed on installing it...that sounds really annoying

 

[s1ck s0n]
