Apparently Rogers and CIBC have rolled out the mobile payment app but I can't find it in the market on my Nexus S...
What I want to know from the people that may have it, can you add ANY visa/mastercard like Google wallet or is it only for CIBC credit cards?
Also, if you can share the apk file, that would be cool too.
Please note that the CIBC mobile banking app is not the same thing as the mobile payment app.
I'm pretty sure the app comes pre-installed on select roger device's. It may be some time before we see the apk for it.

It's only for select Blackberry handsets sold by Rogers, they promise other handsets in the future but unlikely unless everybody upgrades to Android 4.2 for security
Also only works with CIBC cards.

Oh well. Back to the waiting game for us Canadians.
Google wallet will probably work for us before Rogers does anything about it.

There's tricky ways to do it, but you can actually end up with a permanently broken google wallet doing it. Just too much of a hassle, in case Google wallet ever officially comes to Canada.
What were you looking for exactly? Like an app where you can just use NFC to pay for stuff? Or some sort of visa/mc transfer system like Liquid Payments/Liqpay?
Also if your phone is rooted, that's basically giving your credit card/bank info away probably why there is no support for android banks are too scared of the potential epic fraud
Its now confirmed that it's only for BlackBerry's at the time. Confirmation here. Also you can see it on Rogers website here. I guess they really want to make sure this system is secure and locked down, so I honestly would not expect it to come to android any time soon or at all for that matter. Just my opinion though.
Help please! I've been searching everywhere for and found some helpful tips on how to install Softcard (ISIS) Wallet on N5, but I cannot locate an .apk for current (or even previous) version of Softcard. Can anyone help?
TIA
Um Google wallet...?

I'm aware of Google Wallet - I'm trying to get Softcard to work.
Why?
I'm interested in Softcard and similar type of payments. From what I've read, it is still in beta testing in limited markets, two cities I believe. You need a special sim card from your carrier to support it. Plan is to roll it our at the end of the year to more areas but that has slipped so many times, I'm not planning to see it soon.
The last time I read something about nexus and Isis it said nexus wasn't supported by Isis. But I'm not sure if there are any ways to make it work. I signed up for Isis to take advantage of the free $50 american express serve thing and I just put that card on google wallet
Depends on which carrier you are with:

There are a bunch of vending machines near me that are ISIS only, even though they have the paypass and other branding on them. That was annoying.

did you ever get this? I have both the AT&T and TMO apk's, but can't get them to install on 5.0.+ probably don't work with ART.
It seems that I can only have one Gear active with Samsung Pay. Whenever I use SPay on one gear, it will reset on the other and all cards will be removed. Anyone here with both Gear S3 and able to use SPay on both?
Thanks
Can't be done at this time.

I can't either...but wanted to know, do you have to call your bank to verify the card every time you try to activate? Or is that Bank dependent?
Only one watch, and I've had SP reset and delete my cards several times over the past few weeks. Each time it's happened when I open SP on my phone in the gear manager app after a few days or weeks of it working fine. As far as calling the bank, my Chase Visa allows me to reauthorize with a verification email, but my credit union cards need a call to the bank, where they ask many security questions to verify my identity. So it is bank dependent.

So, you've got SP setup on only 1 watch and it has deleted the cards on random? Crazy. (yup, it was a Credit Union Card I was activating) So, how do you use the 2 watches? I'm thinking...I'll be using my Frontier the most, so I'll have SP on it. As for my Classic...I suppose, I'll have to use it as a standalone for now.
Question is...I'm using a Note 4 that doesn't support SP. If I were to Get a phone that does support SP (such as the Note 8 I'm waiting for)...do you know if the watches will act differently...as in...work as a portal for the SP on the phone? Or is SP totally seperate on the Watch and on the Phone? Thanks!
Hi,
in some tests and reviews they are talking about devices with 64GB internal storage capacity. But if i search for it, it's almost impossible to find offers. I found two offers. Both sellers present phones with EAN 8801643085445. Can somebody confirm this capacity?
Thanks in advance
*edit*
After a long search i found it. Samsung sells the Galaxy A8 with 64 GB in middle east. I have no clue why it's restricted to this region.
Here's the number: SM-A530FZKGXSG
Here's the samsungpage: (i am not allowed to post as new member)
There are some sellers which import it to europe. But i have no experiences in warranty. 4G shall work...
I ordered one piece with crossed fingers and hope it works. At least, I hope the post will help somebody, who is searching for it too
Hi there!
I was looking for the same model and have realized the same thing you've found.
About availability, I found it on eBay. Where did you find it?
About warranty, if you need local warranty, you have to buy it into your country.
If you're ok with European warranty, it has to be sold by an European entity with rights to do so.
If you don't care about warranty, well you can get it whenever you like it.
I'm seriously thinking in trying to understand in how to keep it under the 32Gb

Hi Pirata, Here are my experiences:
I ordered it on ebay. There are some sellers which are specialized in grey imports Some of them offer a one year warranty. I paid 345€.
As opportunity there's a onlinestore called techinthebasket. They deliver from GB. But you have to pay a fee of 20 €, if you want send the phone back.
No import fee as long as they deliver from european country. Most of them deliver from GB as long as GB is part of EU ^^
At least, every A8 with 64GB is imported from Middle East I bet. Its working with european simcards. I readed to start the phone without simcards (also to install updates and doing resets). If the phone is resetting with simcards, the country ID (MID/MID/MID) will be changed and as a result you don't get updates anymore.
I am very happy with this phone. Its a big boost in compilation to my old Honor 5X
It's unique here... and it's mine ^^

Hi there and thank you for sharing your experience.
I have some questions regarding your post. Please let me know.
You say that the shop you mention imposes you to pay €20 in case you need to send back phone for any reason.
Do you know why about that?
You say that they deliver from GB. Can you tell me if the invoice is from GB or from some other EU county or worldwide country?
Where have you read about the fact of not turning on the device for the first time, or reset to default, or wipe, or update the device with the ota updates with the local European sim card inserted?
Which should be the correct procedure for using a 64Gb A8 in Europe? Simply do those four things I mentioned all without any sim inside?
Do you know why about that? What are the precise consequences of doing that with the sim inside? Only not receiving otas updates? Is there a return back possibility, or if I forget to remove the sim card and do one of those things the phone ends up in not receiving any ota updates, not even if I wipe everything away with no sim inserted and start all over again??
Thank you very much.

it seems, the online store techinthebasket provides a german and an english page. The return-fee of 20€ is noticed at the german page only. I don't know the reason. At least I didn't bought it there.
The update policy of Samsung is pretty annoying. If they don't sell officially a phone in a country, they don't provide software updates. When you insert the simcard before you start the phone first, it will recognize its a different simcard and ask you to restart for configuration. This "configuration" will change the language and countrysettings. Once it's changed, theres only the opportunity to flash a stockrom.
There are several german threads because it's not selled official here.

So wait a minute...if I start the phone for the first time without sim, once I insert it, it changes configuration and since that time on I will no longer ota updates????
Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk
When you start the phone first time with inserted simcard, it will ask for a restart. You can skip and ignore it.
If you allow the restart / configuration, then you are in danger to not get Ota-updates anymore. That's why it's recommended to remove simcards when you reset or update

So first boot, reset or update better to do without sim cards inserted, and every time I get an ota update, remove all sim before applying the update.
Is this correct?

I bought in eBay the 64 gb model and I've got 2 OTA updates with the SIM inserted, one of them oreo. I live in Spain.

I have the middle east version and it's globally unlocked, has original warranty, supports LTE/4G, has 64/4 gb, and just received the latest oreo update.
If you have any questions I'll be glad to help you.

Literally, you can only get it in one country and i think that is china
Ehm, no. The last time I searched for this phone I found it in online stores of the middle east. Also my phone software version is tagged with MID/MID/MID
Hi,
I found that there is way better price than wondemobile. But there is no customer reviews at all. Maybe some of you has some experience with them?
Thanks
Good morning.
I bought it from Eurocart3 at eBay. I was told they are the same as T-dimension.
Shipped from UK to Spain. Paid by PayPal and received in 6 days!!
Some guys on a Spanish forum bought directly from t- dimension without issues, some had a bit of delay in shipping.
Best regards

I still see Eurocart3 active and selling Items on Ebay ( also the N9860).
Just checked...
If you need references for T-dimension check on internet and search for "seguimiento N9860" and you will find the Spanish forum in which many have bought from them. You'll be able to read ( in Spanish though) good or bad feedbacks.
Kind regards

Well it seems that ebay is a better option. Because on website purchases they requires to much personal data ( copies of debit card, health care card ? idiotic
That is why I bought through eBay.
Some Spanish colleagues who bought directly at T-dimension had to send a copy of some kind of receipt in order to proof delivery address.
Some have been lucky and received within 1 - 2 weeks some a bit more... Some have had stock issues delaying delivery but in general all ok.
For sure eBay + PayPal was my better option as I did not know T-dimension before.
Hope it helps.

Hi! No, I'm Spain and did not get them.
They ship from UK or Germany.
Something that does not have good feedback with Eurocart3 is that they take a lot of time to reply to any questions.
When I bought the phone, I was sent a tracking number from DHL which did no have any updates for 4 days, on the 5th it showed shipped and on the 6th I got it at home.
Best regards!
I bought from them my Snapdragon version of Ultra SM-N9860 via eBay.
Seller name is gadget892. Took 12 days to get it (Edinburgh in Scotland)
DHL tracking was not showing anything for the first few days it got added.
2-3 days to reply to a message. Happy at the end, the only issue is I didn't do enough research and didn't know that this version won't work on any 5G network in UK. I don't understand why as it used to be just a matter of checking bands, now it is far more complicated for my small brain.

I've had absolutely no luck with Google Pay. I was using it on my Note 8 for years and since getting the Note 20 Ultra, it won't complete a contactless transaction.
I've been reading about people in other countries with Google Pay not working with their SIM card. Could you please tell me which network you're using and if your SIM is in position 1 or 2?
I have a feeling that my giffgaff SIM could be responsible, since it's a MVNO and the HK CSC seems to treat it like an O2 SIM.
Thank you

My SIM is in SIM 1 slot, using EE network. Don't really know much about SIM cards affecting contactless payments. I thought this payment method should work even when you are offline with just NFC active.
I have N9860OZS1ATI3, is it any different to yours ?

Same firmware as you.
So there are three different NFC methods for payment, I remember back in Google Wallet days you needed a compatible SIM card with a secure element to activate contactless payments.
The options now are: SE SIM card, Android operating system or Embedded Secure Element.
Google Pay support asked if I had a SIM card with a secure element and when I said I wasn't sure they told me to select HCE method with is Host Card Emulation, I suspect that's the same as the Android operating system option in Samsung.
Regardless, none of it works. I've tried them all, removing cards, switching NFC method then adding the cards back in. I suspect I'll need to stick a 'proper' (as opposed to MVNO) SIM card in, reset the whole phone and try again.
Thank you for confirming that it's possible to get this working though!
Remember two years ago I tried Google Pay on uncertified Honor Note 10 that I imported from Wondamobile.
None of my cards worked on it for wireless payment (tried HSBC, Loyds and Amex) apart from Monzo bank that worked straight away. Note sure if there are other factors related to what bank works and what doesn't.

What do you mean by "uncertified" .9860 is certified by Google so no problem with that (if it works in you region, and don't have mess around with addreses etc)

He was talking about an Honor Note 10, not the N9860.
Anyway... I put an O2 SIM into the second slot and Google Pay needed me to add my cards again and now they work!
It's confusing because I can't seem to find a common denominator as to why this problem is occuring.
SIM1: giffgaff - Google Pay doesn't work
SIM2: O2 - Google Pay works (and presumably would work in SIM1 also)
So you'd think the giffgaff SIM is the problem but Google Pay works in my Note 8 with the same giffgaff SIM. Also, Google support asked me to switch the secure element from SIM to HCE (or Android system as it seems to be called in the Note 20) but that didn't work, nor did embedded secure element.
The only thing that kind of makes sense is the fact that giffgaff is a MVNO and the TGY firmware thinks it's O2; perhaps a CSC from outside the UK doesn't recognise UK MVNOs which leads to some sort of conflict?
