If its like the $20 Chromecast credit you need to sign into wallet.google.com and select Payment Methods to see it in your account. Mine shows up there but not in the Google Wallet app and i dont see a way to see it in your Play Store account.
I have not purchased anything yet from the Play Store with it but would assume that it will just show up as a credit towards the PlayStore purchase once you go to purchase whatever.

I'm with sprint and I bought my phone on black Friday and on December 5th I got a text from Sprint with my $50 redeem code.
Not sure how other carriers or GPS purchase is getting their $50.

Different Google Wallet Balances...?

I had previously been using Google Wallet on my EVO lte and had a balance of $1.12. Well I got my nexus 7 yesterday and when I updated and then activated my Google Wallet on the nexus I was given a new Google prepay card number and another $10.00.
I was under the impression it was one card per Google account. Anybody else get this?

no, they're separate and don't combine into one account.
i have like 12 cents leftover on my other device. i'll deal.
I am going to call today too see if i can transfer my Google pre paid funds from nexus s and nexus seven to my gnex

Well just called, promotional finds cannot be transferred. Bt if you load funds you will be able to move them from devices

Your provided funds (ie money you loaded into the account) should be tied to your Google wallet account assigned to your email account.
The promotional funds are not.

I'm not sure about that I have three devices in front of me, all three have different user id's. Shooting from the hip each device gets their own prepaid card. Odd I know but a call to Google wallet will transfer funds you loaded on one phone and move them to the new device.
An oversight on googles part

so the only way to move the money around between the different wallets debit cards is by calling Google, or there is some way to do it in the app or on the web?

I dunno looks like a call had to be done, but honestly must people don't be juggling two devices when trying to use wallet.

Google wallet is kind of a mess. I don't think that there is any synchronization between your online account and your devices. My buddy that works for google couldn't talk about it because apparently its something they are working on.
No but it works out when they give free money away. I got $15 from my Galaxy Nexus and $10 with my N7.
It will also give you more money when you root and switch to a custom rom the first time. So $50 free if you time it right.
That's alot of free lunches at McDonald's.

Any update on when the Nexu 4 will be available to buy outright?

As it is currently sold out on google play as everyone is aware, have google or LG released any update on when more will be available to buy?
Also, is google play the only place that will sell the phone for at its low original price?
No update. Yes, the play store is the only place unless you get a contract with T-Mobile.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk 2
No news on Google Play store dates, but I heard a rumor about it being available in T mobile retail stores as of today, so if you want one badly enough call around your T Mobile stores.

[Q] HELP! AT&T Ordered Wrong Color =(

Hi everyone, I just ordered my Note 3 this morning California time at 8:00am through calling AT&T because they had to do exceptional upgrade on my line and they are sending it overnight so I should receive it by 8pm 10/5/13 per ATT rep. Anyways, attached is the pic from this morning, as of 15 mins ago under 'Shipping Date' is now 10/4/13, shipped by UPS but no tracking # yet. I just checked the other email confirmation they sent me and I notice it's the wrong color! Apparently ATT rep ordered the black one, but I want the white phone. the 2nd pic shows item #6159A which equals to the black one after I googled it.
Has anyone gone through this problem? Anybody ordered wrong color and went to corporate store to exchange? Please help a newbie and i'm so sorry if i'm posting at the wrong thread.

don't open the box and you can exchange it without the $35 restocking fee... you needed item 6171A for white

I've had problems returning an "online" item to a store before so I would call AT&T support first and have them call the store and speak to the manager first to verify it so there's no headaches.

The Corp stores are their own entity, so the CSR carries no weight with them. I honestly doubt they would even go as for as to call. Have them note your account, and surely the local store will do an exchange for an unopened item. Good luck to the Op.

Thank you everyone!
I called AT&T noted that they ordered the wrong color and I can just come into AT&T store and switch it.
Waiting for my phone to get here this week and hopefully the corporate store won't give me hard time
Thank you again! :good: :highfive:

Sprint Pre-Order 16GB only!

For those of you planning to get the device with 32GB on Sprint, you are out of luck
I called Sprint to pre-order and they only have 16GB. The rep does not know if Sprint will carry the 32GB

the 32gb from the play store works on sprint you just have to get one of their lte sims. This was confirmed yesterday

I did order from the play store.
The reason I called Sprint for pre-order is that my line is eligible for update and I want to take advantage of the savings by renewing my contract.
If Google makes the 64GB available, I will go for it

If you order through sprint at the discounted and subsidized price, will the phone be locked into sprints network? If so, will sprint allow unlocking at the end of the contract?

If true, that's quite a discount.

Just get it on Google Play. It's cheaper there anyway. Why would you pay a contract fee when it's cheaper to go off-contract and get sim-only contract?

If it's the same as when i needed a SIM for an iPhone 5 a while ago, walk into a store and ask for a SIM. They wanted to charge me $50 for a SIM. I pulled the saddest sob story ever and the manager felt sorry and gave me one for free since it was my "first" time.
I used my dads upgrade! I get a 16 GB one for about $86. $50 rebate and selling my Glxy 3 for $80.

Does anyone know if the Nexus 5 that Sprint will be selling is unlocked?
I had a plan to buy it from Sprint, pay it off and then cancel my service with Sprint. (Don't ask why)
So I need to know if I can just take it and get it activated at T-Mobile after I cancel Sprint.
I'm definitely going to try and activate this sooner. My phone arrives today. Will check Sprint stores and Best Buy for the sim.

They're selling the same model as the one on the playstore, which is unlocked.
Have you got your tracking numbers for Sprint yet, the suspense is killing me. Should have ordered from the play store.

If you didn't buy it in the initial hour of release the play store is backed up for weeks (mine arrives today, but alas, I will not be home until Wed...
I'm assuming the sprint pre-orders won't ship until the 8th? May be quicker for you to just snag one at the sprint store..

It sucks that they want to charge for a SIM. Maybe I can weasel out of it since my original plan was to just pay the $100 ETF and switch it to T-Mo prepaid. If it gets them more money, maybe they'll give me a SIM so I stick around for another few months out of laziness.
Basically I figured $100 to switch to TMo early was worth it since I'll be paying $30/mo instead of $80 and my contract has 4 months left on it. But if I can get the SIM for free and easily switch to TMo after the contract ends, I may just stick around for now.
The only thing that sucks is that 11/8 date. I could go to Walmart and get a TMo SIM tomorrow once my phone gets here but if I stay with Sprint a little longer, I'll only be able to play with it on WiFi until Friday.
Hmmm.....

Nexus 6 on contract VZ?

I've anxiously awaiting the nexus 6 on verizon. I'm a little worried, as I have contacted Verizon twice and they have no record of them opening up the pre orders tomorrow. Both reps checked everything they have and don't show it at all. Is it going to be available on contract for verizon? Will it be available for pre order?

Well they got the Turbo announcement out of the way, nothing holding them back now. Im going to just get it off the play store tomorrow though, Im not going to wait for them!
im gonna order off the play store tomorrow too, hopefully Verizon does not screw us and try to fight there activation

For my company I am the VZW authorizer for our account and business\enterprise support have not been able to tell me if can pre-order until last night. My rep emailed me saying that Friday I can pre-order...
There are so many answer out there who knows... I sent my new unopened box of the Samsung Note 4 back to their return center in TX yesterday so I am hoping that they have it all processed and in the system so I can get that line to show the upgrade again for the re-order...otherwise I have to wait next week.
Never had a Nexus look forward to it really enjoyed the Note line but if they will not get anymore root (maybe late) no roms no sell for me...at least my Note 3 has SS installed for the custom rom.
will verizon be able to sell the 64gb version?
I decided to just buy it from Motorola using their credit. Now the question is when will Motorola sell it on their site? !?!

On the Motorola website for the N6, it does say they will be selling it off contract in November, but no matter how many times I ask they don't know any more. :/
