This for me is some sort of cooperative venture than a competitive product. I will pass and stick with MPOS (www.mpowa.com)

they haven’t even tried to test isis, last november they said they’d supposedly be in the testing process by september this year, even if that is true it probably won’t be available till till halfway through 2013 if they’re lucky. I wonder what the carriers cut is in the isis project? I agree though, just because i choose to use your companies network doesn’t mean i want to be forced with bloatware and told what i can and can’t do with a phone i bought. I’m not leasing this phone i bought this phone out right. I wish Google would just buy out t-mobile and/or start their own carrier

Agreed. The more any company/carrier/manufacture or what have you try to tell me what i’m allowed to do on my device, the less likely they are to get my money. I paid for it, so I should be able to do what I want with it. If I wanna install porn app’s until it’s so infested with malware that it blows up in my hand, then I should have that choice. After all, it was my money that was used to purchase the device, ill do what I damn well please with it.

It honestly seem’s that the big companies tend to forget we’re human, its human nature to rebel. To do what we’re told not to. The more they try to lock something down, the more likely we are to break it just to spite them. Just my opinion.

Google needs to lay down the law on this and more… Force all Android phones to be able to access Wallet… mandate timely updates… and for good measure, ensure bootloaders can be unlocked if desired.

Correct me if I’m wrong, but you have to add money to your prepaid from your credit cards. It doesn’t matter really because I do not have, nor do I want, a credit card. I have a debit card however, and I wish that would work with wallet. As it stands now, I have to add money, no less than $20, to my prepaid card. It then sits there, separated from my bank account. Either I can make a purchase with my Google Prepaid, assuming the store has a PayPass terminal and I have enough on my prepaid, or I can use my debit card which is missing some money as it’s on my prepaid.

Basically, I want my money in one place and to be able to use that money by two means: Google Wallet and my debit card.

Google should block ISIS from being installed on Android devices.

I’m confused. Whats so bad about linking a Google prepaid to your credit card? I use my American Express and Discover card on google wallet at least once a week.

This is also something that happens if you factory reset your phone. I did a factory reset on my phone after trying to restore my apps with Ti Backup, this is what got me. Long before any warnings about resetting the app first.

Maybe you should go to an.droid-life.com instead?

Yeah, Citi. Regardless, I’m not getting a CC to use wallet, nor am I tying my money up on some prepaid card only to kick myself later when I have 17 cents left over or I’m a few pennies short.

Agreed. Only way you can blame Google for something is if you were completely stock and it got screwed up. Even if they did release a Verizon version, doesn’t mean they need to test it for custom roms, just official releases and the upgrade process that goes along with that.
