So I was excited to finally use Google wallet on my nexus, I walked into my local McDonalds and ordered just a regular cheeseburger. When the lady asked me to pay I then busted out my phone and tried to tap the NFC pad, it didn't do anything and everyone was staring at me thinking I'm some sort of alien. I just thought maybe you guys have some fails too, please post below!!

Since PA had been updating the ROM a lot, I forget to set up my wallet. Every time I have the chance to use it, it takes forever to set up. I always just end up using my debit card

It's happened to me too. My wallet works at a lot of places, so it's not my phone, but it's still embarrassing. It's the store/restaurant, but the dummies working there don't know how to use pay pass or their system was never set up for our even though the pass pad is on.

I've used it with vending machines a few times. I'm afraid to use it at a store cause I don't know if its set up on their system and I don't want to make an idiot of myself. Lol

There is a list that is easily found that shows the stores, etc that have signed on. It works well at those places of your set up. I have only used it twice though as not many stores use it yet.

I recently tried to use it at my place of work. No matter what, the cashier and I couldn't get it to work. She had heard of the technology and even has another customer who uses Google wallet. I finally decided it was the phone and paid cash. Wallet recognizes its near the NFC debit reader, but says the data transfer may have failed.

I have had it work and not work. In fact, it has worked AND not worked in the same McDonalds, but most likely different pads. My friend that works for google says that it is most likely the pad that doesn't work. But when you start it, make sure you have set up wallet AND that the screen has been turned on. You might want to try resetting your phone before you go into a place where you are going to pay with wallet.
Mine has always worked other than the first time at Target.
The instructions tell you to unlock the phone first, tap NFC pad, then put in your access code. That way did not work for me.
Instead, I turn on my phone and load up wallet first. Enter the pin, and keep it at the card screen. Tap to pay. WIN.

mine always works. i've had a fail here n there but usually my fault after updating roms and not setting wallet back up. unlock screen, tap and you will hear a beep, enter pin, tap again and done. when you get used to it you get faster.

I gave u a Thanks to cheer you up after the embarrassment.
But yep, I am always afraid of using it, anyway my CC gives me cashback so no need for Google wallet, the first thing I do when I root is to take out the *nfc*apk and Wallet.apk so they don't take resources.
I like more the idea of the Apple passbook.

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.
http://m.gizmodo.com/5973469/what-its-like-to-have-a-nexus-7-as-a-phone
An idea I've been kicking around for a couple months now. I finally accepted that I won't ever own a computer or laptop. I despise my Note 2, the only thing keeping me on it is LTE, obviously the 7 lacks. But a larger screen is something I keep wanting more and more. The only other problem is the worrying dependency on GV in order to make it work.
Very nice article.
I don't think the Nexus 7 will fit in my pockets, and also, Google Voice isn't free in my country and isn't really supported, so I prefer my regular Galaxy Ace for the outside, and the Nexus 7 for the inside .
I use mine as a wifi phone with the groove IP app, when my phone goes dead.

That´s not true.
The IMEI will be blocked by the AT&T and the N4 will no longer work with a sim card from AT&T network.
The problem is only one, the IMEI is going to be usable for other networks.
I guess Cerburus or any other anti-theft app will get wiped when flashing a factory image including user data.

I used it a couple times, but after trying it... I find it much faster to just swipe my card instead of tapping it, entering pin. Still useful if I ever forget my actual wallet in the car or something, but it really isn't a time saver.

Not sure where it is on the One, on the N7 it's in the middle of the device on the back. And on the N7 it works through cases which is a nice bonus too, I imagine it's the same for other phones and devices (not that you'd want to cover up the sexy beast that is the One ). Really looking forward to my upgrade in a couple weeks so I can have a phone that's NFC-capable, using a tablet isn't quite as wieldy or convenient.

Maybe it"s a factor to some, but idc if it's 2 dollars or 2000, cant stand a thief. I can understand the not bothering part as well, if you ever recover the price it will have cost you even more. Some former employee's of mine thought being the boss makes you rich so you wont notice, both are usually idiotic ideas. Why they think i owe them but they owe me nothing is beyond me.

god, until that explanation, i sat here reading this thread as if you sent your phone back to LG to get something fixed, and then an LG employee was disgruntled, broke the screen, and sent it back to you like that.
i'm sure many others read the story the same way, dude..lol you have to be more descriptive..that's why people are all, "you shouldn't have to pay for this, make them pay for it!" as in, make LG pay for something they did.
but obviously now we understand the situation

I was thinking the same exact thing - except that it was a disgruntled Verizon employee who was the culprit.
Never put it past VZW to send out a warranty replacement with issues lol
Once I get this fixed I may use an upgrade from another line to use the g2 as a spare for myself. Are they locked bootloader like my note 3?

i believe so, but there's a loki exploit or something..i forget, i haven't rooted or done any of this since september lol
I recently rooted mine, ran a few roms but made the mistake of wiping data on my stock recovery and soft bricked. Was able to go all the way back to 4.2.2. Then 2 updates later here I am lol.
Rooting and fixing are very simple at this stage.

How do you tie a card to a certain vehicle?

Untold? I fired the person for theft of fuel. Some cannot be trusted with a monitored fuel card I guess. Especially when the card is tied to a certain vehicle and they have to use a unique pin at the pump. My 160 out of pocket to repair a phone is chump change when it's a few hundred dollars of fuel
