Google Wallet - Vzw / Rooted - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

Hello,
I am having a hard time figuring out where to get the latest Google Wallet. I read recently that VZW broke down and finally lets customers download it from the Play store but whenever I go to it online it says I do not have a compatible device. It wont even find it when I search on my phone.
Back over to XDA and I believe the thread that I found is outdated and does not include the version that will allow you to input any card to it, which is why I am now looking for it again.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks
Running AOKP JB Build -1

there's an app on the play store called Get Google Wallet. try that

The new version came out 8/1/12 - READ HERE

That's the same version that I have too so I think it is the latest version.
The Gmail app in the play store is the pre-3.0 version.
There's no update. The GMail included in ICS is of a higher version than that it the Play Store. Unless your Play Store says there is an update, there isn't one
I want to know if the Gmail app shows in the play store in a stock i9250 because it doesn't for me.

Did you not read what we said? lol. Its not in the Play Store, because the one included with ICS is a higher version than supported in the Store at the moment. You're effectively beyond up to date. You'll be notified when there's an update....
Lol sorry just got nervous my phone was recently stuck on boot up animation and had to factory reset and lost all pics.... then play movies wouldn't update and finally did so I got alil scared lol

Google Wallet

I have an unrooted/unlocked (bought from Google Play) Galaxy Nexus running 4.1.1 (JRO03C) updated through the OTA, but it does not have Google Wallet. Everywhere I read about the features in 4.1, they mention Google Wallet, including their features page.
The app does not show up on the phone, and on the computer it says "This app is incompatible with your Samsung Galaxy Nexus."
Is this normal? Is it happening to anyone else?

Yea, I'm in the US
odd. If you bought it from the Google Play store it should be takju. I purchased mine a month ago and it's takju with wallet installed.
If you go to Google maps, settings > About > What's listed under Device?
I have UK version and I am in the us and gw downloads fine from playstore

If you need it I have the apk when it wasn't available foe my phone then see if it lets you update it

samsung yakju.
And @tdoughone I don't want to install it if its not from the app store since creditcard data is sensitive information.
Also: I bought it 1 day before it went off the market because of the lawsuit, I decided not to root it because 4.1.1 would be coming soon.
I'm sure someone will chime in if I'm incorrect but from I've read yakju is the International version where GW is not available. That's why I believe it isn't there.
If you want GW on it, I believe you'll need to flash it with a rom or install a takju image.
Wrong I have yakju and gw

Thanks for correcting me td. Did you purchase yours from the Play Store as well with yakju?

Google wallet?

I have always wondered why Google wallet is only for the Google devices, when every other service from Google is available for most androids, I saw somewhere that there was a way to bypass the Google play store and be able to download it, but I cannot find this anywhere, I wanted to know if anyone knew about this cheat to get around the play store, or simply have a way of getting the apk from somewhere, thanks in advance for those looking to assist me!

I believe it's the carriers that block it, as they are developing their own competing service (ISIS).
There is a way to get Google Wallet onto your phone, but you need to be rooted. There is a thread in the general section explaining how to do so.

[Q] Google Wallet

does anyone have the latest Google Wallet apk? I found R87 floating on the net, but when I install and launch, I am told that it needs to be upgraded. I am on Verizon and rooted. I have run this app in the past without very many issues, but haven't run it in over a month. Any help appreciated.

After receiving the message that my version v1.5-R87-v15 was out of date, I was directed to the play store where I learned what the new version was but couldn't access it because because of the Verizon blockage. I have succeeded in finding the new apk and restoring Google Wallet by installing v1.6 R96 v13; however, my first install failed to function.
here you go
I found if you change 2 build.prop entries you can download direct from play store then set them back.

They have to select paypass/paywave as the payment method, they probably don't know what you are doing and did not have the reader activated..

I'm at work right now. Will try to see which ones when I get time. I know the entries are ro.product.name and ro.product.device . can't remember what to change them to though. You change them to the galaxy nexus device it works on think it's gsm version.

Sorry for the delay my Wife was in the hospital for half the night she's feeling better now. Well here the build.prop settings I changed.
ro.product.device=toro change from toro to maguro
ro.product.name=mysid change from mysid to yakju
This worked for me although this thread has the newest wallet and used it on my latest ROM change. If you change ROM's make sure you go to settings and reset google wallet app before you leave old ROM. Some are saying it will break Wallet if you don't.

Trying the search button would be a good start.
i read an article last week (can't find it now though) that said google was making wallet available in the entire US, not just certain carriers. i clicked the play store link in the article and for the first time Wallet showed up in my t-mo play store. i clicked it and it said it was not compatible with my phone.....? i backed out, went back to the article to finish reading it, came back to the play store and google Wallet was gone. can't even find it in a search. weird.
i tried the extensive way to get wallet on the phone, changing the build.prop, and nearly bricked my phone. I am just going to wait for the official app.

I love you so much. This worked perfectly for me.
EDIT: Until I changed my build.prop back to my Note 2. Then Wallet told me the app isn't available for my device or carrier.

search for the xposed framework and the wallet module for it, and it should take care of that.
