Default [Q] Google Wallet?

I know this things has NFC, so will it be possible for us to get Google Wallet working on this?

I'm willing to bet not at first. I believe Verizon will keep it off so that it can substitute its own program that does the same thing. Then after a bit the devs will get it working for everyone to use.

I'm pretty bummed the device's for VZ are still shipping without Wallet...The previous "excuse" from VZ was that
Quote:
...because Google Wallet did "not simply access the operating system and basic hardware of our phones like thousands of other applications," the service "needs to be integrated into a new, secure and proprietary hardware element in our phones"....
http://www.reuters.com/article/2011/...7B50JM20111206

I can't see how that excuse given last December is still valid now...If i was a customer of VZ id be pitching a fit...only reason why i somewhat care is b/c the wife is. lol


btw has anyone tried the method mentioned here to get it on their device? Have to use the default android browser to do it evidently, so no Dolphin, or Chrome even...

...How to Install Google Wallet on Your Verizon Galaxy Nexus Manually:

1. Open browser on your phone and open http://market.android.com

2. Look for Google Wallet

3. If the browser prompts you to open the Market, don’t. You should stay in the browser.

4. Once results come back, tap on the icon for Google Wallet.

5. Tap the Install button before signing into your Google account.

Remember, you are doing this from the browser and not from the Market app.

6. When you have already signed in, you will be redirected to the Market page in the browser.

7. Don’t be surprised to discover that you don’t have an option to install the app since it doesn’t support Verizon.

8. Tap the back button so you are prompted for the Browser or Market again. This time, choose the Market.



This will let you open the Google Wallet page through the Android Market. You will get the option to install already.

The method doesn't work, but there appears to be an .apk somewhere that can be installed.

I installed it successfully on my DINC4GLTE. It just does not have the permissions to allow use yet.

I tried the Nexus method (or very similar) on the nexus I had for a week before the Inc4 was released and it worked. Haven't tried it on my Inc4 but it's on my list... I'm kind of waiting for JB ROM or CM10 before I start messing around too much. It was sure nice (JB) for the two days I ran it on the Nexus!

Interesting article about Wallet working on our device:

http://www.droid-life.com/2012/08/03...another-story/

Got it to install using the apk, but still getting the "not supported on your carrier" message, then it closes. Anyone with root try the build prop mod?

I can see it in the Play Store with that direct link but it still says not available for my phone. So I can't install it.

Started installing, halted, "application not installed", then exited. Is this a root only version?
