Samsung pay - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge+

Has anyone actually activated their cards on Samsung pay? I heard you get a wireless charger or case if you do.

None of my cards work. Maybe they will expand support now that it's official. That would be awesome if they did give something like that away.

I was able to add my Citibank Debit Card. I tried it twice a couple times at the Walmart self checkout. It automatically popped up and asked me for me for my PIN number, so I punched it in. However, both times it automatically declined my purchase. So I just let it scan the EMW Chip on my card, punched in my PIN, and it went through flawlessly.

I love this phone so far! Really looking forward to when I can root it

I was told by Samsung support that if your card fails to register the first time, use the retry button on the pay screen. Apparently Samsung pay will use a different method the second time. YMMV.

[Q] NFC in the UK

Can we use this to pay for goods in the UK?
if so, what software do we need on the phone. There's a few shops in my town that have a contactless payment machine so I'm wanting to try it out.
any ideas?
Also, can these be used to scan and copy a proximity card for use at work to let me in doors?
I am one of the worst for forgetting my card each day so having my ID on my phone would be useful!

I think Android's implementation of NFC is still missing tag emulation mode, unfortunately.

I don't think so. Basically Android has the functionality to read/write NFC tags and communicate with NFC devices that expect an active NFC device, but can't communicate with NFC/RFID devices that expect an NFC/RFID tag.

any way we can make payments then like they can in the US?
Ive got it working in the UK. I flashed the app from here and factory reset, then opened Google wallet with a non-Apps Google account, added a new prepaid card and its all working, paid for a coffee at starbucks this morning in London. Only problem I have now is how to top up my prepaid card. Only US cards are supported.

The simplest way would be to super-glue your Oyster card to the back of the phone. But that would impair other NFC uses.

I paid with my Visa PayWave card today at Greggs.....the lady there had absolutely no clue what just happened, she kept telling me to insert my card even though I told her that I've got a contactless card and the payment has already been authorized(according to what was displayed on the terminal). She had no idea if that's normal/allowed so she had to ask the store manager. What an embarrassment. I can only imagine what would have happened if I tried to pay with my phone - panic in the shop? It would take me 5 minutes to explain what I did. It's nice to see contactless payments being accepted in more and more places, but in most cases the staff has no idea what is going on. I even had it in McDonald's once.

I've been trying.
The registration page in My Barclaycard asks for phone number and SIM serial number. It expects a SIM serial number that is 19 digits. The number written on my T-Mobile SIM is 12 digits. I contacted T-Mobile and they gave me my full serial number - 20 digits. So now it is too long. The best they could suggest was dropping the last zero. It didn't work. So I still can't link my Barclaycard to a contactless account.
Even if I managed to do any of this, I still wouldn't have the necessary app that comes pre-installed on the Samsung Tocco Quick Tap from Orange. So I wouldn't be able to do anything with the account. Maybe it is possible to port the app from that phone onto the Nexus.
Are all Orange SIM numbers 19 digits? I guess the Barclaycard/Orange Quick Tap thing really does only work with Orange.
Ok, so received an email from the android bug tracker saying that it's going to get resolved in the next software update \o/

Google Wallet for Australian Nexus Virgin Mobile

hello, i own a galaxy nexus GSM and i am on the australian carrier Virgin Mobile, i followed all the instructions to install wallet and set it up but it still comes up with a unsupported carrier popup, is there an issue? cheers.
I had some success getting it onto my phone. Here's what I did (Also note, I'll use Wallet Online when referring to the checkout system used to pay for stuff on the Play Store, and Google Wallet when referring to the mobile phone app)
Flashed the factory image of 4.1.1 (with Google Wallet support)
Rooted (Using the Galaxy Nexus Toolkit) and installed MarketEnabler and Titanium Backup
Unfroze / Defrosted Google Wallet in TB
Set ME to spoof T-Mobile (US)
Installed the updated version of Google Wallet
Before that (about two years ago now) I added my Visa Debit card to Wallet Online and have paid for lots of marketplace items.
When I was able to run Google Wallet, I added the debit card I had through Wallet Online. It asked me for a mailing address inside the US. I used my parents in-laws address (I don't think Google sends you anything, it seems to be for verification purposes) and the card added successfully.
Tonight I went to K-Mart and tried to buy a photo frame ($29 worth). It told me the card was declined and I needed to see the card issuer, so unless I'm doing something wrong, Google Wallet is a no-go when you add your own (Visa) cards.
I suggest trying the above to get Google Wallet on your phone in the first place, then (if you have the time) fiddle around with some settings, such as turning off root (in the Superuser app), unspoofing your mobile (something I haven't done yet, but I doubt it'll make a difference), adding a different type of card (such as a credit and not a debit card, or a card from MasterCard etc.) and even trying the Google Prepaid card (I have $10 on it, but I don't know if it'll work, as I only just tapped the icon to set it up)
I would really love to see this rolled out officially to other countries and not just the US. If Visa are now on board, surely Google should be able to flick a switch on their end (if it's that easy) and let us buy stuff with our phones?
Also if after you set it to T-Mobile (US) you notice the rom you have hasn't got Google Wallet, you can just search for it in the Play store
Adding your debit card in that way wont work because the US address wont match the one Visa has for you ... I just used the Google Prepaid card up at coles and it worked fine, they looked at me strange though
Google wallet is somewhat pointless in Australia still as you can only use prepaid cards to add funds to use the NFC feature, I stick with my debit card.
well i got it to work guys! also i was talking about the latest verison of google wallet, 1.5, and now i have it working and linked to my debit card. i installed the modified version in the android development forums a few hoours ago, and works fine! yes please use market enabler because it may require you to use the t-mobile server durring activation. cheers! thanks for the helpguys!

Glad to hear you had some success. Can I ask if you've tried to pay for something yet? Your post says it works fine when linked to your debit card, but that could mean the app is working fine, or you can pay for stuff. Also, can we get a link to the development thread you referred to?

At first I wondered about that, because purchases are actually done through a virtual MasterCard (go into the Google Wallet app, edit an existing card and look at the "Via" field. Hit the ? to read more about it) but I guess if the charges are done via Wallet Online, then yeah they would cross-reference your details.
All Google has to do (as far as I can see) is just change the UI on their form to allow non-US locations. There must be some international card issuer BS to go through though, even though I can successfully buy anything I want online using PayPal or by entering in my card details directly.
I worded that wrong, adding your card is possible but when buying something it will fail ... that is because of the AVS that checks the cardholders billing address so unless it is a US card you're buggered
He might be refering to this thread
I hate to say it but hopefully iPhone will Have NFC to help get it off the ground... I really wouldnt mind only having to carry my phone with me
yes it works, i am curently in the city testing it out, i think the issue is that either my debit card details are wrong or there is an issue with my actual bank, i still need to resolve, attemtped at startbuks swanston st melb and mcdonalds melbourne central shoping centre, whenever i tried it, it either declined it or it wont go through, any ideas? cheers.
the latest 1.5 version of google wallet allows us to use our own decit and credit cards. cheers.

Interesting about the AVS system. What I wonder is, could someone use an address like 123 Fake Street, Melbourne, 30010 (note the additional 0 at the end) and hope that the AVS system matches the first four numbers, doesn't find anything for 30010 and ignores the final zero in the post code, thinking it's just useless extra data? That'd satisfy the AVS and meet the 5 digit zip code requirement for adding a card, if AVS only matches numerical data
Of course, I'm just hypothesizing here, and am not suggesting anyone does this, as it could be seen as exposing a weakness in AVS and you could have all sorts of people running your way.
Google wallet is not available for your device or mobile network with latest google wallet app direct from the play store on stock jellybean 4.1.1 yakju an jellybro cm10 custom rom on both Telstra an Vodafone networks with my unlocked gsm galaxy nexus, go figure I even tried market enabler lol, more importantly when will Australian galaxy nexus users be able to purchase songs from google music like US users.
I've tried various ways on my SGS3 (Telstra) and nothing has worked so far. AVS is definitely playing a role. I've got a US Unlocked virtual credit card, but not even that passes AVS checks even though one is issued with a US address when you get the card. Tried this with Hulu Plus and they're probably the most anal when it comes to AVS. Anyway, found a workaround to that problem, but I digress.
Another thing I reckon is that "Google" is not set up on Australian PayPass terminals as a registered merchant, hence why even the prepaid Google card with $10 fails. As with many, I see no reason why we cannot use Google Wallet [yet] down under. Oh well, my conventional debit/credit chipped cards work fast and well, albeit without the "whoah!" factor if I used my phone.

I'm wondering if Google is denying all foreign transactions for external cards using Google Wallet (but allowing the prepaid card), making it a combination of AVS and Wallet. Strange that they're denying one card but not another..
However your comment about the prepaid card failing is incorrect. On the way home the other night my wife and I stopped in at our local (rural) McDonalds and purchased two coffees. I paid for the lot using the $10 prepaid card and it worked fine. Only thing was, the lady behind the register had to run and grab a pen, as most "credit" transactions under $100 are usually PINned or PINless and rarely signed. But that's just me, you may be having difficulties for another reason.

You're correct. I failed to mention that I've only tried this at my local 7 Eleven. From what I've read, those who have reported it worked [more often than not], used it at McDonalds. Good on you though; I'd love to see it in action!

Google Wallet outside the US - adding a card?

I'd really like to get the new google wallet working on my nexus. I've got a it up and running on my rooted device and have the $10 credit on the google prepaid card. However, I'd like to add both my UK debit and my credit card so that I can use those.
To get GW all I did was install Market Enabler, set it to US-T-Mobile, then opened Play Store and installed Wallet. That went through without a problem and I got the $10 on my google prepaid card. However, I can't add any of my own cards. I've read that people outside of the US have managed to get their own cards in there but I haven't found a clear set of instructions to do it. I've searched in here, Nexus 7, and other forums.
If this thread could be kept to people outside the US who have managed to get this to work then perhaps I could post a step by step plan of how to make it work. If you have tried but failed it would also be interesting to see the step at which it failed.
Thanks!

There are way too many Wallet threads so you should be posting in one of the other ones... that said, people have added cards by using US addresses and then changing the address back to the proper one on the web, and the cards look usable, but they don't work. You'll have to wait like the rest of us.
So that's what I did today. I cleared out all my cards by logging into wallet.google.com and then removed each one. I then went back to my phone and registered my visa debit card with a US zip code. Once that worked I went back to my pc and changed the card address so that any AVS check would match.
I did two trials of paying, at two different shops. The first I tried with the Google prepaid card, using the $10 credit. The item I was paying for was over $10 and I knew it should be declined. Not to get too too technical, but the payment transaction was initiated and the auth request was sent. It was then returned with a declined message. So it asked for the money and was declined on the basis that funds weren't available (and cost Google in the process - sorry!).
So then I went to a different shop and tried to pay for something using my visa debit card. This time I just got an error. It appeared to be an error communicating with the PDQ but it was hard to tell.
The request has to be failing somewhere. So does it fail at the processor or somewhere else? I'm going to keep plugging away at this especially as I have a way to monitor what's happening on the card end as I work for a payments company and can issue myself a prepaid card.
If it's possible to get this to work in the UK then I'm going to do my best to make it happen. If anyone who works in payments in the UK or even elsewhere reads this and fancies a bit of a deep dive into what exactly is happening then I'm keen.

download alogcat then move it to /system/apps (since it won't work on JB otherwise), open it before a transaction. clear logs. try your transaction. read the logs. might help? helped me to figure out why the prepaid card I was using wouldn't work - basically an address parsing problem on google's end.
Cheers for the tip. I'll try that today.

So, a brief report of what I discovered.
1. I successfully used the google prepaid card in the UK.
2. I wasn't able to use my own debit card which is registered in my wallet (it simply gets declined)
3. I think I know why.
Google wallet is not the clever beast I thought it was. I thought they had come up with an ingenious way to use a virtual card to do some sort of pass through transaction. The truth (or at least my understanding of it) is something much simpler and mundane. Google are simply doing the acquiring of your transaction and then using a virtual card to pay the transaction. So it's a sort of man in the middle approach.
This has 2 rather big implications
1. Google are willing to pay to do this. They will be paying for every transaction and this signals to me a very serious intent to buy into the world of payments. They want the data so much they are willing to pay a not insignificant sum for it (perhaps this is why it's such a limited roll out?). Therre game plan is to monitise all that data. I'd love to have a look at their 10 year wallet strategy...
2. Your non US card will never work outside of the US. There are a whole heap of ways they might be doing this. The simplest in my opinion would be to block/accept BIN ranges. If your card has a US banking BIN then it passes and gets charged and if not it gets declined immediately.
So, that's the end of my adventure into the land of google wallet outside of the US.
Corollary; Obviously any time you use the google prepaid card outside of the US you're going to suffer a currency conversion. My transaction at the weekend came out to $6.25 and using the mid market rate from Saturday (of 1.5699) this converts to £3.98. My actual transaction was £3.95. That's not bad. I would guess that Google are using the mastercard exchange rates (which are very close to mid market). This means that if you want to use Google Wallet via the prepaid card you're not going to suffer much in the exchange rate loss (probably ok for infrequent or low value transactions).
i have a tried a couple of prepaid cards (registered with US addresses) and they don't seem to work.

As many people have discovered, Google is simply performing an Address Verification System (AVS) check to confirm the billing address registered against the card in Wallet matches the billing address that the card operator has registered against the card, AND (the critical part) that this is a valid US address.
This is why even a generic prepaid US Visa/Mastercard doesn't work unless it is one that allows you to register a billing address for the AVS to reference, and then you use that same address in Wallet.
In theory (though untested), you could use your UK (or wherever) card as long as the billing address your bank has registered is a valid US address... but I doubt you'd be able to get the bank to change your billing address without proof that you actually live there!

The OP mentions that they're on a custom rooted rom, so they are probably using the modded build of wallet from modaco (http://www.modaco.com/topic/354635-region-device-root-patched-google-wallet-apk-15-r87-v15/) which has 3 restrictions patched out:
Device check - the app will now work on any device, not just the ones Google allows. Of course you need to have NFC for it to be useful!
Operator check - the app should now not care which operator you are on, rather than just the ones who officially support Wallet
Root warning. This isn't strictly required, as Google Wallet doesn't actually stop you using the app if you're rooted, it just gives you a warning on screen (which is a little annoying), but this version won't even do that
With this configuration, the 'wallet' side of things works works fine (NFC, etc), and even adding new cards can be done if you know what you're doing, but unless the AVS check on the card resolves to a valid US address, the transaction will be declined at the terminal.

Activating Device

Did anyone else have trouble activating their device on At&t? I gave them the IMEI and the representative said that it is not recognized as a smart phone in their system. Some BS.
Just popped the sim card out of my moto X, and into the 5x. Worked without any hassle. Didn't have to call them or anything.

I had an issue... I use it as my work phone, so I asked them to activate it. However, they came back a couple of hours later noting that they were unable to do it and that our AT&T rep suggested taking it into a corporate store. I did and they were able to activate it over the phone (stores can't mess with corporate accounts directly). Didn't hear why they were unable to do it through the usual channels. Good luck.

I got it resolved. When i went in the store, the rep told me that my unlimited data plan had been taken off. He put it back on and everything was working. At&t is on some bullsh*t! Must be mad, Google is selling it unlocked
I had no problems when I walked in to the AT&T store (not authorized retailer, actual AT&T owned).
I told the rep that I needed to switch phones. Handed him my new Nexus 5X, commented it needed a nano sim, he grabbed one, scanned the barcode on the back of the phone, waited for his system to update, popped in new sim and within a few seconds the "LTE" came up and he said when it finished (initial) booting I would be good to go, I could hang out until then or leave if I needed to. He was correct. When I look online at my AT&T account my phone shows as an unknown device. - wait, just logged in to double check the terminology, it now is back to showing my old Galaxy S4.... that's strange. I clicked "manage my device" and it comes up with no phone image and just says "DEVICE". Either way, just go get a new SIM, they will scan the code and it will be golden.

I keep getting "Connection Error Failure to connect to server" whenever I try to add a card. My device is literally, out-of-the-box Verizon stock. I'm in the United States. I'm aware that it doesn't work on encrypted devices, but I didn't do any of that.
Has anyone gotten it to work?
Mine works. Try uninstalling and reinstalling the app through a good connection.
I can't get Android pay because my card isn't compatible yet. Bother.

I've done all that about 6 times already

What type of card are you trying to add? It has to be a supported card or I think that random message will pop up. Only certain banks and credit cards are approved. I can add my debit card (supported bank) just fine but when I add my discover card (I don't believe discover is supported yet) it will give me that error.

It's not working with my Chase credit card, my discover credit card, or my American Express Credit card, all of which are on their support list and work fine in Android PAY.

That's really odd if all of them are supported then. Maybe try giving Samsung a call and see what they have to say.

It only accepts Visa, MasterCard and American Express. There are a list of participating banks on Samsungs website.

Yeah, i was just going to say that discover isn't supported. Neither is my Barclay's Mastercard. That's probably the issue. Android pay & Samsung pay are different products with support for different banks

I just spoke with a rep at Discover and they couldn't give an exact date but they said Discover cards should be supported by the end of the year. I guess we'll see if that holds true.
