Even for when the article was written, I feel that there was a higher understanding of how to work around root and wallet. At least that is what I have experienced on my vzw gbex (running 3 different families of roms in the course of using Google wallet) Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium

I feel that apple will be the force that creates one standard for mobile payments. They have a very powerful draw because so many people buy a single phone. Until then, all hail Google wallet. I hope it stays for the long run, as I use it anywhere there is a pay pass terminal. Sent from my...

Getting an extra is not a bad plan, but the cost adds up eventually. And correct me if I'm wrong, but verizon is not doing the traditional new every two years updates anymore. I think your best plan is to wait until the year and a half marker (I know I get some discount at that point) or buy a...
