Could it be your phone network blocking It? I'm on EE I'm the uk and can update using mobile data
Do you happen to have 'Data Saver' enabled? If so, disable it please and try again.
If this is not the case, I concur with @marcushesketh1991 in that it might indeed be your carrier network.
Let us know.

Thanks for the update. I'm sorry the advice given did not resolve your issue.
I assume the replacement does updates w/o fail?

I am getting a Pixel 2 today, as nice as the Note was I will try this one. Other than the play store it was pretty sweet!

Wait what?
you took the Note 8 back because the play store would not update your apps over mobile data?
:laugh:
there is a specific setting in the play store app that allows that.

No, everything was changed and sometimes apps would update but it became so much of an issue I had to return it. Even WiFi didn't work. I have unlimited so wifi isn't even an issue for me or a viable option for data.
My note 8 will not download system updates over data. Nothing can be done it seems.

Pulled this from my Nexus 7. Works on my Nexus S running latest Jellybro Kang. Thought I would share as this version lets you use more than just a Citi or prepaid card.
Version R1.5-R75-v6.apk
I'm not on the nexus s, but do you know if this will work without a data connection? I know the n7 doesn't need one but my gnex does. I'm wondering if you need data for this version to work on a phone.

I keep getting a error when opening the app. Says "movie network or phone not supported" how do I fix this? I'm using adamg jellybelly!

Maybe I should give it a try.
I just uninstalled and reinstalled. No issues here. Also, I believe it does need data as payment info is stored in the cloud instead of the device itself.

Hmmm... I wonder why it works for the nexus 7 but wouldn't work like that for a phone. I tried to use wallet on my phone in a store the other day and in the middle of authentication I lost signal and had to start over. I may test pulling the wallet apk off my n7 and try installing on my phone to see if it works the same. Thanks guys!

How about networks other than Sprint and AT&T?
Does anybody know if this works on T-Mobile or other "blocked" networks?
Currently I am running the version patched by MoDaCo (1.1-R63-v12 See this thread) on my T-Mobile Nexus S. Unfortunately, this revision doesn't implement the new functionality to use cards other than Mastercard.
Does anyone know if the new apk still contains the device and carrier checks? If so then us T-Mobile people will still need a patched version.
yes it does contain the device/carrier checks... though you could always just try... instead of waiting for an answer... you would have known 5 minutes ago...
I just successfully installed it on my rooted T-Mobile Nexus S. Everything seems to be working fine. That Unsupported Device banner at the top is still there though. I haven't gone out to test it at a payment terminal yet.

The unsupported device warning is because your phone is rooted.

THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!
I've been trying tutorials and tricks to get Wallet to install, to no avail, for >hour. This worked perfectly. Can't wait to try it with my Visa card now that they're supported.
Just tried it on the aokp kang on my i9020t on T-Mobile and got insecure element. Had to flash my nandroid that had 1.1 r41v8 installed which is really old unfortunately. Would love to get a newer version working...
Thanks for this. Installed fine and got my cards added on Kali's CM10... Now just have to try it out and see if I can still make purchases.

Unfortunately Google wallet is not yet available for your device or mobile Carrier
Anyone know how to get past this?
Installed on my VZN Nexus with the little banner due to I'm rooted and it seems to work just fine. Let me register, etc. I just have not tried it out at a store yet. We don't have to many places that accept it (or I just don't but a few).
Oh, thanks for the updated .apk Not sure why Verizon is such a [email protected]#$ and not let us use it.

Its fine. It still works fine... they just won't support it if you have an issue. Basically saying they aren't responsible in case something were to happen.

Do unrooted people that are side loading the app still get the message because it wasent installed directly from the app store? I'm scared to do it with the message I would hate to be robbed and have Google tell me eh your rooted.

Heya all quick question, will the root process for the AT&T S5 work for the S5 Active as well? I just picked it up yesterday, so hoping that it's a yes.
The people in the thread say yes

They are different models, so the roms probably won't be the same. There isn't the ability to use a custom recovery yet, so you can't flash a Rom anyway.

@Hashcode could do a SafeStrap for s5's and s5 Actives soon.
If we put up a bounty for it, he is more than capable of doing it.
He might even do it without that.
We can all just take care of him like Geohot is getting taken care of.
Geohot came out with a root for S5, it worked on my ATT S5 Active. From download to reboot and verify....40 seconds max.
Google play service do not work on my phone anymore. Trying to restore the phone back to factory settings now with Kies. This sucks. lost all my contacts and can't sign into google.

Hi!
I just got my new G Flex today (I know, a bit late to the party) and I put my SIM in and there is no service constantly. I know the SIM is not the problem because it works in other phones. I have already called my service provider and they say that there really shouldn't be anything stopping it from getting service. Also tried to reset the phone to factory settings with no positive result. Is there anything you guys suggest to do?
Thanks!

No, I got it from becextech (a website which imports them to NZ (country I live in)).
No I'm not rooted, just got it today would rooting it help?
And Yes it only goes in one way!
I am however performing a software update to see if that changes anything. Will keep you posted with the results!
Thanks!
UPDATE: Upgrade to 4.4.2 did nothing to the service

Can anyone using an unlocked note 8 let me know if you can still use the hotspot feature?
Also curious if you have an unlocked S8 or S7 , does the hotspot work?

Yes I read that people with the unlocked s8 can use the hotspot without Verizon getting in the way. So the unlocked Note8 should be the same. The only trade-off is you do not get Wi-Fi calling or HD calling because the firmware does not support it. I don't use those features so it doesn't bother me. You can flash the Verzion firmware and get those features but you lose the hotspot. Idk if you can go back to carrier unlocked firmware so I'm not messing with it.

I had no idea this was possible. I thought everyone using Nougat was locked out of hotspot without root regardless of the phone being unlocked. If that's the case, I'd return the Note I ordered from Verizon and just buy it from Bestbuy.

For users in the "New" Verizon Unlimited plan, would an unlocked phone bypass the 15GB limit on hotspot before they throttle you to 3G?
