doesn't come up on the app market on my phone, and won't download to my phone from the app market on my pc.

You need to do it via the browser in your phone. Won't work via the market app.

AntimonyER · Feb 2, 2012

Actually its more complicated than that. Check the link trophy posted.

No. It works with any of the swipe things at stores that also have a pad (usualy just a large flat area) for the RFID cards. You will see thing with a variety of signs. One is sort of like the wifi logo, the other says mastercard paypass or something like that. If you go to a McDonalds (I do not advocate actually eating there....) and look at the sign in the door that has all the credit cards they accept, you will see all of the different symbols for wireless credit card payment.

I lied. It does work. Need to sign out of your account. Goto market via browser. Search Google wallet and click on the wallet icon not the install button. Login through the market and type in your account information don't auto login. Click on browser and it will take you to the wallet screen. Click the back button then choose login through market and it will allow you to download it. Cheers.

well to be more specific, all my widgets disappeared from both all the home screens and the app drawer :eek:

lol

I had side loaded Waller a while ago and decided to give this a try, just so I can get updates on the app whenever El Goog pushes them out. After I uninstalled the side loaded Wallet the market version went on with no problems whatsoever. Just follow the instructions, it takes the phone a minute or two to initialize the app the first time. After that no issues.

AntimonyER · Feb 3, 2012

I just uninstalled the side loaded one and installed from the market. Brought my existing pre-paid card info in with no problem from the old app.

Were you within 300 feet of your phone when it happened?

Outatime · Feb 3, 2012

Hmm. I get as far as the "choose which device to install" and it says not available on my carrier. Not the end of the world, I only used it once.

The_Chief · Feb 3, 2012

I have had no issues with the side-loaded Wallet either. Just my 0.02

Outatime · Feb 3, 2012

Anyone have a link to the side loaded one? The one from the original thread here was on MegaUpload so... well... for obvious reasons if you've been following the news it doesn't work.

Yeah neither did I. But app updates sounded good to me.

App updates are REALLY good... and I tend to distrust side-loaded apps.

But if we already HAVE the side-loaded app and want to uninstall it and reinstall the Market app, will we lose any money in the account? :thinking:

redraptor · Feb 3, 2012

I was having a LOT of trouble trying to get this downloaded. Every time I clicked the icon in the browser, it took me to the market where it told me it wasn't supported by carrier. I did this about 10 times and it never worked. Then I found out that if you long press the icon in the browser and open in a new tab than it will work. Try that if it keeps frustrating you.

also is there a list of places that use NFC? And will visa ever be supported?

Outatime · Feb 3, 2012

Found it.

com.google.android.apps.walletnfcrel-2.apk

RR: There is an app called PayPass Locator that's cool.

ShanMan14 · Feb 3, 2012

I can't get this to work.

Navigate to market.android.com (not signed in)
search for "google wallet"
Select "browser"
Click on Google Wallet icon (not install button)
Select browser
Sign in manually (remember me NOT checked)
Select browser
Select browser a second time
Back button
Select Market

I get "This item isn't available by your carrier."

What am I doing wrong? :thinking:
