AFAIK, this still does not support phones which lack a secure element (T-Mobile US, SGSII... probably others as well). Hopefully that will come in another iteration or two.
- ajross 14y agoThose phones don't have NFC anyway, which is a more realistic impediment. It's NFC-based wallet that is the real innovation here. Online payments by themselves are hardly new territory.
- maratd 14y agoMy AT&T HTC One X has perfectly working NFC, which I use. It does not have a secure element. Google Wallet does not work, even after being side-loaded. So no, for me at least, the real impediment is the secure element.
- nuclear_eclipse 14y agoHowever, my Nexus S (on T-Mobile) does have the NFC chip and the Play Store is still reporting it as being incompatible.
- tonfa 14y agoCould you side-load it?
- nuclear_eclipse 14y agoI'm planning to try. My wife's got a Galaxy Nexus on T-Mobile, so I'll install it there and see what I can do with it. Now to get it away from her for 30 minutes...
- jsight 14y agoThe SGSII on T-Mobile that I mentioned (T989) does have an NFC chip.
