Google wallet!?!? - Moto X Q&A

Maybe I'm just retarded but how the heck do you get Google wallet working on the moto x att for some reason every time I try to download it it says that my phone is not supported I don't see how that is possible seeing that this phone is comade with Google its their software. What am I doing wrong???

There's a reason for this. It's called Isis.

Yes, right. But I've had wallet running on a Verizon Galaxy Nexus since it came out, sideloaded, no root. So, maybe someone can figure out how to do this for the Moto X or the Maxx?? Hopefull

without Root it won't happen, period.

Wallet worked fine on my nexus 4 stock UN rooted on AT&T

Yes it did but you didn't buy it from at&t. It remains to be seen if wallet will be available on the dev edition moto x.

has anyone found a good way to turn the hotspot on the moto x? thanks
Without root.... You can try apps in the Play Store like Fox If and Barnacle.

But it requires you to use a password to unlock your phone right?

Yes, you do. It's a minor inconvenience for me. I use the hotspot then clear the credentials out and take the lock away.

Wouldn't the "skip" thing get around this as well?

Maybe, but personally I'm not a fan of the idea of carrying around yet another device (no matter how small) just to help me unlock the phone.

Try that. I used to pay for hotspot on two unlimited lines but got tired of the price. Dropped those features and still have unlimited. Before I rooted and boot loader unlocked my Note 2 I tried widgetsoid on both a stock Verizon note 2 and stock galaxy s3 and it works for both of them.

That just provides toggles for hotspot off and on. On the Moto X you can't use hotspot without the VZW subscription. Alternates like Foxfi are the only options for us right now.

I tried everything I could find for my Verizon Moto X, including SVTP which I paid for and worked great on my GNEX but does not on the Moto X.
FoxFi does work, however the certificate and lock screen PIN or pattern thing is annoying. Since this is the only option, I have no choice and will go through the routine when I need it, for now.

I know that but I wasn't paying for the hotspot on my two unlimited lines with a Note 2 and S3 and the widget allowed bypass of entitlement check apparently, as I was tethering via stock verizon hotspot on two stock unrooted phones. Didn't know if it would work or not on the X.

[Q] Wallet on Verizon?

Now that we have root, is there any chance that we could see a working port of the NFC-enabled Google Wallet app that works on the Verizon Moto X? I'm sick of trying to use Isis for NFC payments, and I don't think that there are any hardware limitations that would prevent the app from working on the Verizon model. (Please correct me if I'm wrong.)
The latest wallet app works on a lot of devices, including verizon and devices without nfc. download it and try it. Are you saying that the nfc part of it doesnt work?
I downloaded Google Wallet on my non-root Moto X (Verizon) just the other day, and it seemed to log in and work fine. Haven't tried paying for anything with it though.
Tap to pay is disabled on Verizon.

The Moto X on Sprint and US Cellular both support tap to pay, so all we have to do is trick the app into thinking that our phone os one of those, and we should be able to do it, right?

I think I remember reading that the secure element is being moved to the sim?

Dumb noon questions

I ordered my Moto X on Saturday through moto maker. Its a Verizon retail version. Any idea if 4.4 will come on it? If I don't have 4.4 is there anything I should do before accepting the update? My understanding is the the bootloader on the VZW Moto X retail version has not been unlocked by anyone yet. I am interested in obtaining an unlocked boot loader and root if possible if only for options down the road. I have been seeing tools like RockMyMoto or something on here...what are those all about. These options seem a lot different from what I am used to on my nexus, could really use a brief introduction to my new device. If I am missing a key topic, a link would be super cool.
Thanks!

i just received my verizon phone today and come with 4.2 so you can still using rockmymoto in case that you want to root
It's supposed to be on the path to 4.4 however I wouldn't expect it until early next year but I might be wrong but that's when vzw releases big updates it seems.

Just got mine today. 4.4 was not installed but it started the download on its own. I didn't realize it until it had already downloaded.

I guess since it's allowed on the iphone, people don't really care, so they thought why not do it for all the phones. ATT does it will all their phones.

Going from verizon to att isn't much of a difference. I guess you should have gone with tmobile if you didn't want carrier branding or bloatware. The tmo moto x has nothing.

Well you could have bought the tmobile moto x and used it on ATT. It comes sim unlocked. Anyway, I'll try not to make you feel worse

ISIS Mobile

Has anyone been able to get ISIS working on a Verizon Moto X I already have Google Wallet already but want to try ISIS just to compare the two.

From what I heard it's not compatible with the Moto X, it also has very small limitations to what credit cards work with it. I think at this point only Chase and American Express work.
I just checked and download it to my X. Looks like it has been updated to work with kit kat.
Sent from my XT1060 using Tapatalk
Who cares. Use Google Wallet...
On a serious note, No idea. Its card limitations are crippling so I don't use it.

You can use isis with the vzw moto x, but you need a different sim cars. Still a national, but there's another sim. Just go into vzw ask for the nano that works with isis.

I've had the NFC sim card since I received my Moto X, but I was never able to download it until yesterday.
BTW, I also use Google Wallet, just want to try ISIS before I give up on it.
Both ISIS & Google Wallet work just fine for me on my Verizon Moto X
Sent from my XT1060 using Tapatalk
Works fine here. Just limited options as far as card brands, to my understanding.
Once I make my last payment to my Verizon bill for my final $50 cash back I will stop using ISIS unless there's other cool offers that come up, I've got $150 cash back from normal purchases, so it was a no brainer for "FREE" money. Plus using AmexSync I've got another $250 in cash back from Direct Deposit sign up, plus other offers such as Amazon & such
American Express is REALLY putting a lot into this, they want it to take off with all their cash back offers, I'm surprised more people haven't jumped on the bandwagon. Also, if your local stores accept PayPass, Tap & Pay etc ISIS WILL work there, even if they aren't on the "official" list, I know this for a fact because I've used it at tons of places where it wasn't listed & payment worked just fine

I have a feeling this is just the Isis consortium's newest way of blocking Google wallet.
Isis doesn't work on my att model. But Google wallet works perfect, I have used it at sports authority and CVS and mc Donalds with out issue.
