I think you just sign in to you Google account go to Google play and you're good?

Just sign in on the device it should email you saying "Here's 25 dollars of Google play store" or something like that

wiithepeng is correct, once you get the email saying that you got the credit then the play store will automatically use your credits when you go to purchase something. Pretty straight forward... I still have a little more to spend :highfive:

You guys are right' movies Re also in the library.

I don't understand why they are asking for my credit card when I already have one registered with my account... I mean how was I able to buy all the apps i before today?

I already have a card on file and it all registered after sign up. Didn't have to enter the store at all.

Well that's exactly what I did entered my gmail and password, but noting that confirms me that I receive the credit... Where do I have to look to see if I received them?

A screen popped up saying it was issued, like right after signing in. Then my gmail finished its sync and the email was there notifying me it was credited.
Brick and mortar store purchases still got the credit too.

Are you able to choose between credit card and the 25 dollar credit that's issued?

Hmm, yeah it was after I did the web sign in. Two step. It just popped right up. Figure it was because there was a card already present.

You should be good. Heard someone saying they canceled the one sign in and went through their own and it worked. Think it was AC.

Freebies with the Nexus 7 pre-order

Does anyone know exactly what we get with a Nexus 7 pre-order, and if this only applies to Play Store orders?
So far, I know we get this:
1. $25 Play store credit
2. Transformers: Dark of the Moon full movie
3. Bourne Dominion Book
4. Several magazine issues (which magazines?)
5. Anything else?
If this is only for Play store orders, then it would greatly justify paying extra for shipping instead of trying to buy somewhere else

Is it actual magazine subscriptions? I thought it was just a few free magazines you could download.

I called the order info number, and they said the freebies will be added to the first account activated on the device when you receive it.
In the uk were only getting £15 play store and the movie, no books or magazine subscriptions as of yet

You are aware its not hard setting up Google music for in the UK aren't you? You can't buy tracks or albums but the upload and streaming your music works just fine! Google it, it took me 5 mins once I'd tunnelled a US ip address.
Google certainly should have included "Blade Runner" in addition to or instead of "Transformers".
The Nexus 7 Android whose mission it is to kill Rogue Androids... That would have been a whoot!
Since you get a permanent copy of Transformers, I wonder if they will release the ability to purchase movies when the Nexus 7 ships.

You can purchase movies and tv shows now. Just buy them from the play store on your pc and you can watch them on your android device. All content will show up in the Google Movies app once you purchase something.
Long live the One X
All freebies are pre installed ON THE DEVICE and it doesn't matter where you buy it from (hell I doubt Google will stop offering them even after the pre order)
They are all assigned to the first Google account you sign in with

That was not my understanding. At least Transformers should be in your locker, available for downloading.

Nexus 7 in the Philippines

Just thought of creating a thread for pinoys who own this great device.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2
Nice we finally have a thread! I have a 16GB I got from someone at sulit.com, how about you OP and have you experienced any of the known issues? Issues I have experienced are the screen flicker and screen lift. Doing the glue fix temporarily did the job, but after a few days it lifted again. Thinking of having this checked at by ASUS, but I want to DIY fix it first (more fulfilling).
The thing is that I haven't really played much with it but so far so good no lift issues or anything. It's pretty handy though. I'm loving my collection of nexus devices

Nope, didn't get it, but it doesn't bother me actually. The tablet was worth it.
Though I didn't get the $25 Play Store credit, I do have the $10 Google Wallet. Lol!

Excited to get my Nexus on Monday, and I was just wondering if anyone that has their phone is using Google Wallet yet?
I have really been wanting to use Google Wallet but have been locked in with Verizon who backs ISIS and says **** you to Wallet.

I have several times since receiving my phone yesterday; works great. Also was a nice conversation starter with the cute cashier behind the register.

Awesome, Glad to hear that! Haha.
I'm looking forward to trying it out for the first time. Maybe I can impress my wife? Lol but probably not.
I'm pretty new to how to use it/where you can use it ... I assume wherever the "Pay Pass" type things are you can use it? Nothing proprietary?

I used it for the first time today since getting my phone 2 days ago. The cashier looked at me like I was crazy and kept telling me to swipe my card. I had to stall her until it printed out a receipt. It will definitely take some time to catch on!

That's funny. I would have just looked at them awkwardly until the receipt printed. Then silently walked away.

Yes you can select the one you would like to use at that point in time..... there is a " select card" button. And if you want to use another card you just hit that button again for that card
From what I've heard and seen, you can select which one to use when you open the app. Can't be 100% sure on that as I've never used it, but hopefully someone can confirm.

Pretty much anywhere that has a PayPass terminal. I say "pretty much anywhere" because even if they do have it, they might actually have it turned off. Best Buy is one such place that has the terminals but has it shut down (tried it in the past at 3 different locations with my Galaxy Nexus). I've read that it's supposedly because it costs them too much to operate, but who really knows.
Off the top of my head of places I've used it in that all work: CVS, Rite Aid, Duane Reade, McDonalds, 7-Eleven, and BJ's Wholesale Club.
To help you out even further, download the Mastercard PayPass Locator app. It'll bring up a list of locations near your current location that should have the terminals installed.

It honestly doesn't matter what you tell them. It'll process as whatever your selected card is, but if it's a debit card you won't have to put in your pin number. Tap, and go.

I had the same issue here, and Netflix solved it by disabling my current account and reopened a new account using the same email. Then I could apply my second code.

Paypal merchant vouchers up to $50.00? How and where?

I know the Galaxy gifts are there for us to download and use, but I don't understand how they get activated. So what's up with the $50 paypal vouchers we are supposed to get?
I don't fully get the voucher, is it for end users to get $50 to spend at merchants or do merchants get $50 towards processing fees in which case I have $0 incentive to use it.
What sort of Galaxy gifts are we supposed to get? I haven't seen anything...
