Anyone else having issues where their S25ULTRA is recognizing the NFC contact on other devices just fine, but when you go to add a card to Samsung Wallet, it doesn't recognize the NFC? I've only done it on this phone and so far it has never worked, even with the NFC on and set correctly.
Go to settings/Apps then Samsung Wallet and open that. Click on "Storage" then clear both the cache and data. This will reset the wallet and clear out all personal info input. Then put the credit cards back in and set it up, and try again.
Things to keep in mind:
- Some store/retailers have faulty credit card readers, especially when it come to NFC recognition, so it could be the store, etc.
- Do you use a phone case with magnetic features in it, if so take off the case and try it??
- Does the wallet have unrestricted battery use, if not give it that.
If those do not work, then try Google Wallet and if that works, then Samsung has an app issue, if that does not work, then Samsung more than likely has a hardware issue. Then the last resort will be (and Samsung phone service will more than likely recommend this too) is to reset the whole device to factory settings and then manually set it back up the phone (manually is MY recommendation) the way it is now, then try it.
I know the last option is a serious bummer, but using a backup feature to make the phone as the previous model, could be the issue as well. If the device was completely setup already from scratch, then I would forgo resetting the phone as that would almost eliminate that suggestion as a remedy.
