Google Wallet Update - Nexus S General

Guys, thanks in advance for the support. My phone is the Nexus S i9020A. There is a recent update (8/1/2012) for the Google Wallet, which can now facilitate all the major credit cards. How can I manually update the app on my phone? I got the app from a link on the forum, because trying to get it from the Google Play Store had given a message about the version not being compatible with my device at the time; the app is not listed in, "My Android Apps", in the Google play store. I've already tried doing the update from the app settings on my phone. Much thanks and appreciation.

I thought it was supported on 9020a. Or better yet any 9020 as long as it was on att network at the time. Anyways either I am wrong it it has changed.
Either way just side loading the app should work just fine.

albundy2010, thanks and much appreciation. Actually, I got my unlocked nx s from Amazon. Where can I get the updated Google Wallet app to side load onto my device? I use the app almost every day with a daily balance, and would prefer an update as the first choice. Much thanks.

There is post with it on the nexus s themes and app forum.

Thanks and much appreciation. I'll look it up in a bit.

should still work even if your unlocked/ rooted mine does

It's working. I just need the latest update, but the WP update button on my phone is not highlighted to let me do it. I did not get the app from the play store so its not listed on "My Android Apps"

Hi guys, thanks for the support. I spoke with someone from the Google Wallet support team, and was told that I will no longer be able use GW on my unlocked Nexus S i9020a; it is because of the latest update which don't support the device. Actually, I felt embarrassed when it failed to function at a 7 Eleven, and which was the reason I called. Unless there's an .apk file for the latest update that could be found, perhaps on this or another forum, I'm done with the GW. (Still got a balance to retrieve). Much thanks and appreciation to the forum for all the support.

It works.

albundy2010, You're good! Thanks a million. I am just overwhelmed as a result of your quick and timely response to facilitate me getting the recent update for Google Wallet. I've already downloaded the app. I had to check the box to allow for installing from outside of the play store. It updated perfectly, and included all my personal settings from the outdated app. I now have to test it at the store, and will post to let you know how it worked out. I am very, very grateful to you and the forum for the support . Much thanks and appreciation.

albundy2010, it worked perfect at the CVS store. In fact, it was smooth and without lag; much better than the previous version. A million thanks and much appreciation.

Live TV Timewarner Cable ICS only

Credit for the APK goes to B00sted
In the android market (google play) there is a timewarner cable app that lets you watch live tv on your android device, but only if you have an ICS device and you are not rooted. YOU ALSO HAVE TO BE A TIMEWARNER CABLE INTERNET AND TELEVISION SUBSCRIBER. Well i found in the galaxy nexus forums someone changed the APK around to allow rooted devices. So now on my kindle fire I am watching live tv. FYI I am usuing GedeRom 3/15.
Link for the APK

Also just to note, the original APK is free.

I tested my AT&T Uverse app earlier today and it works as well on my KF as it does on my GNex. Pretty cool.
I don't know how lucky, it seems like half the time it's kinda laggy, could be a bandwidth problem on my part
When trying to launch I keep getting:
"We aplogize we're unable to fulfill your request at this time. Please try again later if the problem persists... etc"
Anyone else getting this right now?
Just tested mine and it worked fine. What steps did you use to set it up and sign in

I just downloaded it and ran it and never had the option to sign in. It stays at the Time Warner screen for a while then gives me the error. I'm running gedeRom as well... Weird
I'm assuming you downloaded it from the link I provided

Yea and from the other thread. very strange. I'M wondering if it's because the apartment I'm in doesn't currently have a cable package.

Yes I believe you have to have both a timewarner cable and internet subscription

It works but I noticed that you are using the phone .apk. I tried the tablet version on the original OP but it wouldn't work. Any idea why?
Oh and thanks for this, I've been waiting a long time for this feature.
Yeah I tried the tablet one too and I couldn't get it to work, not really sure why it didn't

this works perfect!
OOh will try this later.

I am sure its a silly question.

What do I need to enable to stop the 4.2 update constantly asking me to upgrade now or later? Usually you can just have the option to skip it no?
I know my phone won't ask unless I search under software updates.
This one pops up on the constant and happy with 4.1.2. Not feeling the terrible reviews on 4.2 so just want to skip it for now or till a more stable one comes out.
appreciate any help.

[INFO] Stop OTA update nagging
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
The suggestions in the reply above are the best but they all require a rooted Nexus. Until you root your tablet try on Google Services Framework in Settings - Apps - All column:
1. Disable Notifications - fewer update reminders.
2. Clear Data - forgets an update is ready but may just re-download one.
3. Disable GSF - stops reminders but breaks Google Play Store and others.
I use number 3 as JB 4.1.2 works perfectly.
I have got similar prob but I am on 4.2. hoping this will work.

You can long press the notification and go to app info and uncheck the show notification box as well.

Thanks for the replies guys. Really don't understand why its setup this way. Wish it was like my S3.
Not really wanting to root this yet, but if the above don't work, may have too.

What is this file being created?

Hey guys been looking for an answer but only found a thread on evo 3d forums that doesn't have much activity, anyways I keep getting this file created every hour or so and its really starting to scare me maybe spyware or something. Trying to figure out why and where its coming from. Also attached inside contents.

I would download Avast from Google Play and scan sdcard and apps. Not sure what it is. Looks like spam-ware.

Just noticed I scanned it when the file wasn't there. Maybe I'll wait till it gets created then I'll scan?
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda premium
I found that in my phone the other day too. I don't know what it is, but it doesn't really do anything.
Could be a log file. I'm not sure what it is. I would scan again once it appears. Not sure if it is I needed file or not. I don't have a nex 4 but was looking into getting one that's why I'm at the forum.
You can try sd maid which has a system cleaner. Or change the files permissions if you are worried about it transmitting data. But I wouldn't mess with it too much until you figure out what it is.

You guys could wipe your sdcard with twrp if you are worried, but back up all your wanted sdcard data to a computer first. And then put it back on right after. I do that with my Nexus 7 sometime. Not sure if it is the same process on Nex4. It may not be necessary, not sure.

I have removed the apps I have installed on my Device from the above list, The first one that springs to mind is the go backup. I would check there first.

My girlfriends phone won't show updates in play store.

OK. I have a weird issue. We just brought my wife's galaxy s4 home and I was helping her set it up. She is coming from an iPhone 4 so its a little overwhelming for her. Ha. But anyway. I can't figure out why the play store won't show updates for the preinstalled apps. Like talk wasn't shown to update to hangouts. And Google now didn't show an update in the play store app but when you open the app it asked for an update. Here a couple screenshots of what I ,mean.

Hahaha. Wow. We got married last year. I haven't called her girlfriend in forever. Woops. Ha.
Anyway. I just didn't know why they didn't show up on the my apps list at all. None of the preinstalled apps show up. So almost all of the Google apps say they need an update if I search for them but when I look at the my apps they aren't even listed. Weird. None of my other android devices did this before. Oh well. I just wasn't sure if it was a setting in the s4 somewhere that I was missing.

Maybe the apps you have installed were backups? I experienced that before.. I made a backup (titanium) then batch installed it with the new rom, it didn't show any updates in the Playstore but it was listed "installed" in the All Apps tab. I didn't bother to confuse myself anymore )
Sent from my GT-I9505 using xda premium
I'm getting a similar issue, playstore only notifies updates after phone is rebooted, not shure why this is happening =/
Maybe try using the market doctor feature in TitaniumBackup?
Yup. After reboot everything worked. I think it was just taking time because it was a new google account. No titainium restore. She came from an iphone 4.

Unable to find camera awesome on Google play.

I have purchased camera awesome from Google play few months ago but now I noticed that I am no longer able to even find it. I am on purity rom 4.4.1. Problem is, my friend is on the same rom but he can find it with no problem on Google play. Only difference is he's not purchased it. Anything I might have missed? I tried emailing the Dev but there's no reply.

It's probably a region issue. Follow this link on your phone https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.smugmug.android.cameraawesome&hl=en It will probably tell you that it isn't compatible with your nexus 4 for some reason. I normally find that this happens when I've recently updated my ROM to the latest version and the dev hasn't had a chance to catch up yet, but if your friend is on the same ROM I'm not sure why it would happen.

Did you change your phone dpi? It normally makes some apps incompatible with your phone which means even if you search they don't show up. Go back to stock dpi reboot. May be dirty flash the rom and you might find your app
I LOVE MY SLUTTY N4
Alright Changed back my dpi and it worked. Thanks guys!
