Google Wallet Works

[aurkachra]

Guys,

Ok so looks like Google Wallet works right out the box. Although I believe ISIS mobile wallet is also installed I chose to use GW as the main NFC payment app. You can configure this from the settings menu.

I have used it at Home Depot checkout counters. So I know it works. YMMV.

Thanks

Wow this huge news! Especially since the Galaxy S5 has NXP chipset (which Google never added support for Tap & Pay even on 4.4.2 yet).

If true, looks like they followed HTC/Motorola and Samsung added their own closed-source support. :good:

It works because of 4.4's host card emulation, it doesn't need a special chip or anything like that, it emulates one.

That's correct but HCE was not supported on NXP-based NFC chips in AOSP code even on 4.4.2. That's why there was a question whether Samsung would be adding their own support like HTC and Motorola did on their phones.

Weird, I just figured it would emulate on any chip.

Google wallet works out of the box with kitkat 4.4.2, I've been using on my Verizon s4 MDK build with kitkat 4.4.2 rom for awhile now and when I upgrade to S5, it still works because google wallet designed to work with all kitkat 4.4.2 rom.

Have you guys tried it to actually make the payment? I know the app can be set up, but when I go into NFC settings (Settings --> more networks --> NFC --> tap and pay) I only see ISIS.

Yes it works, I use it all the time. ISIS blows so I was super happy when I discovered Google Wallet Tap&Pay works out of the box with the SGS5.
Make sure you've installed Google Wallet and set it up for Tap & Pay, it will prompt you to set it as default within the app itself.

Check and see if you get any free credit for using ISIS. I made an account and got a $50 credit on AT&T for using ISIS. As soon as I blow through that it's back to Google Wallet.

ISIS didn't work for me either. It popped up a message saying my phone is rooted.

Xposed module RootCloak will fix this...

No problems!

I was surprised to learn that Google Wallet 'works' on a Verizon phone. When I took my Dev Edition to the new Store and started service the rep said, "sure it works!" I remember reading it wouldn't work with phones from Verizon. Hmmmm...

Anyway, froze ISIS (or whatever it's called now, after changing the name for obvious reasons) and installed Wallet. It works great for me! A pleasant surprise.
