I've been testing krohnjw's NFC Task Launcher app. I must say it's pretty damn awesome! It lets you set tags up for doing different tasks. I'll make a video sometime, he has some on his development page. You can set a tag to enable wifi, for example. One idea I had was to use his app to set your phone to toggle bluetooth when you place the phone in your car dock for example. Very neat stuff! :D

I'm still looking for the best price on cheap tags to mess around with. I've also read there is some confusion around the net as to which tags will work with our phones/phones in general.

NFC Tags, what works, what does not

I've got two TMO SGS2s, so I did some NFC testing the other night. Here is what I found:

1) Creating a text tag works. Reading it from another phone works. But when read, it put the text into a new post in the Google+ app. Not really what I imagined wanting to do with an NFC tag that I read.

2) Sharing Google maps locations over NFC seems to work. But again when reading the tag, the text and URL is opened up as text in a new Google+ posting.

3) Web page URLs. I used Dolphin HD to share a few web pages. Reading the tag properly brought up the website. This one feature seems to be more or less fully operational.

4) Sharing contacts over NFC did not appear to work at all. It is an option when creating a new tag in the Tags app, but we couldn't get it to work for any type of contact.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Pit_Viper:
Are you able to read arbitrary RFID tags using the T-Mobile Galaxy S 2? I've tried on several different types of RFID tags with no success (NFC was indeed enabled when I tried):

-Passport

-Building entry badge

-DC Metro SmarTrip card

I've tried using the included "Tags" application, in addition to "NFC Reader" and "NFC TagInfo".

Oddly enough, I stopped by my local T-Mobile store, and the representative told me that he was unable to transfer URLs or random tags (or contact information, as you stated) between two Galaxy S 2 devices, or between a T-Mobile Galaxy S 2 and an HTC Amaze. (We then played around with the devices a bit in an attempt to get something working, but to no avail.)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Splaktar:
I haven't tried reading any physical tags. Only between 2 different NFC enabled phones.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] OverDrive33:
I did a whole bunch of research with the Nexus S NFC reader - and so far as I can tell, the SGSIIX has the same capabilities.

I have a bunch of blank 1K, 4K and Ultralite MiFARE tags that are AWESOME to play with. Even just putting your contact card on there, or URLs (you can do anything with a URL) is tons of fun to play with. They don't read proprietary NFC implementations without special software - only tags encoded with an NDEF structure will be automagically picked up by Android.

The good stuff is coming up - I'm 98% sure that Zoompass is coming out with an Android app compatible with the QuickPay/Interact-Flash readers. Next year, pay for small crap with your phone! :D

Hi

It has been a long time since I have visited XDA. I am still new to custom ROMs. I installed VR12 with a lot of help from fellow members about a year ago. I am now looking for a change of ROMs. I do not use facebook, twitter, stocks, gmail etc. I basically use my Hero as a normal phone and approx 1 hour internet a day (Opera mini). I am trying to find a balance between speed and battery life. I am not too fussed with sense. I am not up to speed with current roms. I am basically after a reliable fast rom with good battery life. I want to try a ROM without sense. Is a rom without sense better on battery life?

Any feedback is appreciated

Regards,

Riyaz
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Habarug:
If you want speed, go Vanilla Eclair. It's just awesome :D Batterylife is really good as well, many people report better batterylife on this one than on the newer one, though I get a bit better on Froyo roms. Installing Juice Defender can greatly increase your battery time. If you want a newer rom, I recommend Elelinux Speedmachine :) but nothing comes near VE in speed and performance :)
[Hero, G2 Touch General] stefpaul:
try VR13 also...it's very fast. When you go from sense to a stock rom you get a kick because you get used to some features and sometimes miss them... You can also try a GB rom an d see how it works:-P.

I am looking for a dialer app that allows the following DURING a call without switching to another app:

1) Note taking - so notes can be taken seamlessly during a call (such as phone numbers, confirmation numbers, directions, etc.)

2) Voice recording (I know about the call recording limitations already)

3) Dialer 'macros' for quickly entering account numbers and passwords during a phone call such as when calling a bank or paying bills.

4) A dialer pad 'hot key' so that if I have to switch to another app during a call, I can instantly return to the dialer in a tap or double tap.

I know that all of this can already be accomplishe with separate apps. I'm looking for all of this to work seamlessly in one dialer app. The current solutions with the stock dialer are too cumbersome. Does anyone know if any of the dialers in the market support all of these features?

[Acer Iconia A500] superdave14:
Hey guys/gals, the folks over at android forums sent me to bug you guys about my endeavor, so if i am annoying, blame them :). Also loved the registration video and there were no results of forum posts when it came to robotics.

"Just picked up my new Acer A500 yesterday and have been playing with it just a little bit. It has the unupdated 3.1 OS (honeycomb I THINK). So i have a few questions but first let me explain my purpose for the tab and my background.

My purpose for the tablet is for my Masters project, to interface it to a IOIO (pronounced YOYO) controller board in for motor and senor control. The IOIO is an android driven device hence an android tab. Also the tab is going to the the brains and face of a telepressence robot i am building. My background in mobile devices is windows mobile (forget the version) which i did not mod very much and my IPHONE 3GS which i have jailbroken and modded for my amusement. I also have a background in C# and VHDL but not so much in mobile application development (which i suspect should not be too difficult to pick up)

Now on to some questions. I plan to root this just to have root access but is there any other benefit such as an underground app store. My favorite is book access such as stanza. Can i host a web server on the tab or will i have to remote into it using some other utility? And i thought i had another question but i think that will do for now. Anyways thanks for any help and i look forward to future interaction."

[Acer Iconia A500] Biologos:
Regarding root, some apps need it. For instance, the advanced features of Titanium Backup or AdFree. As for setting a server, I am using File Expert, a file manager with some cool options (including root access) that also allows http and ftp sharing of files to and from the tablet. I am sure there are other apps with similar functionality.
[Acer Iconia A500] tkolev:
You don't expect anyone to answer that with a link, right? You can install whatever apk you want with or without root on your own risk. The benefits of rooting have nothing to do with stealing of applications. You simply get r/w access to the filesystem.
[Acer Iconia A500] timehunter:
No need for an "underground" app store. You can use the regular Google Market, Amazon App Store, AppBrain, and GetJar to acquire and install applications.

If you are writing one yourself, then merely compile it and package it appropriate for the Android OS and you can install it without a market as long as you enable "Unknown Sources (Allow installation of non-Market applications)".
[Acer Iconia A500] superdave14:
Thanks, I have never used the android device before so i was not sure of the actual restrictions the OS has as far as modifications compared to the Iphone, which is what i'm use to. If i offended anyone as far as the thinking i'm looking for free apps, i apologize. I'm more interested in direct access to the accelerometer, 6 axis gyroscope, and compass for instant feedback for my robot navigation system, as well as setting up either web server or remote capabilities to motors and functions through the device. It's all about what type of control and feedback i can gain from root versus not rooting. As well as tethering my iphone to it for greater bandwidth range, when WIFI is not available or weak.

Again any info regarding this type of information would be great.
[Acer Iconia A500] tkolev:
Have a look at the sdk. You don't need root for the things you intend to use your tab for. Root is needed if you need to modify the filesystem and you don't. You aren't helping yourself with thinking in the ios box. Android is much more open and thus much more friendly to the developers. All google apps are created using the same sdk that's available to us all, so if they can do anything, we can do it too (or at least we have the means to do it). There are some good examples in the sdk too, that can really help you to understand the means of reading sensor data. If I remember correctly, you had some C/C++ background, so it might help you to look as the ndk too.
[Acer Iconia A500] Biologos:
Android is much more open that the iOS, if you have a basic linux background, you can apply it here too. Rooting allows you to edit the filesystem, the equivalent of being able to write to the c:\windows and c:\program files folders. Occasionally, you may need it, but for most applications, you don't. The SDK is pretty powerful and its tutorials are quite comprehensive, with a little studying, you should be able to write an app that extracts the information you want. In general, Android app development is quite open and flexible.

As for the underground app store, there are many free apps in Google Market. Angry Birds and AdFree for instance (this is just to show that not just second rate developers offer free apps). Also, Amazon has a marketplace and they occasionally have offers for free or very discounted apps. In general, if you need an app, there is probably a free version that is supported by ads, or a lite version you can try before buying the full thing.

Root with KI3 kernel from chainfires thread.

That will give you stock but rooted KI3 2.3.5

Can then install jkay app to turn off battery sounds.
