Just called customer service and they have no idea if mine will actually ship out. Grrr.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Nakhon7:
Just called customer service. I placed my online order on Friday morning, and my status still says "Processing". The rep said that the order had been approved, that a shipping label was being created, and that it could ship out tomorrow.

Honestly I could care less about when it arrives, I am just excited that they are honoring the $399 price :-)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Yatyas:
Just checked UPS referencing my order # and UPS says label printed and has my destination and tracking # :-) Woohoo!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Spartan301:
Called today to confirm that it came in, and they told me that it's going to be two to three weeks because they mispriced the unit and it's completly backordered.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] DroidHam:
thats ridiculous.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] wynand32:
I think it's amazing that they're honoring the pricing mistake, period. I'd love to have gotten one, but I'll not hold it against them for overselling.

Same here !! Awesome !

I have the ICS ota download even though I did not sign up for it. I have a rooted xoom with a stock rom and kernel. Can I install the ota update with rooted phone or will I have to go back to stock everything?

I believe the update is xml77.
[Xoom General] jmgib:
As long as you are running the stock recovery, you SHOULD be ok. If not stock recovery it probably won't accept the signing keys and will refuse to install.
[Xoom General] texasez:
After looking again it is XML77
[Xoom General] texasez:
I tried to install the update but got stuck on a screen with a green android with a triangle with a "!" in it.

Guess it did not like my rooted xoom.

I guess my options are to go back to stock if I want to update it.

That may be more trouble than it is worth if the ics update will be released by developers soon.

Is there an easy option to go back to stock?
[Xoom General] willysp:
I'm stock unrooted. Same problem. The last OTA broke stock recovery, causing "!".

Go to Moto Dev Network, sign up free, then download OOB stock. It's easy.
[Xoom General] FuturePrimitive:
Do all of you guys getting the OTA ICSammich have wifi only Xooms?
[Xoom General] texasez:
What is OOB stock?

I am on android 3.2.1 and build number HTK75D with modified recovery which i thinks is CWM.

Thanks
[Xoom General] texasez:
yes for me
[Xoom General] Saintfyre:
Pretty sure he means Out of Box with OOB.

If I remember correctly when I did this I had to use RSD Lite which Motorola provides to flash the stock Image to my Xoom.

Then I had to re-root it.

On the Moto page there they also have ADB instructions on how to flash it as well.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kavehmz:
Hi,

I got my Galaxy Nexsus today in Asia from a shop.

I start to play with it and from time to time suddenly it without my help bottom of the screens gets tapped repeatedly! pressing home, back and apps list buttons again and again.

I was wondering if anyone else have the same problems and if the best guess is to be a hardware problem (I will be screwed as I bought it from a shop! :) ) or a software bug (I can wait for an update as mine if 4.0.2).

Cheers,
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tigajr:
No problem here.

Try to remove the battery first. Wait one minute.

If it does not work, try to reset the phone (All apps/settings/backup&reset/factory data reset). You will lose everything!

If the problem persists, maybe it is a hardware problem.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kavehmz:
Only if Pointer Location is on?

Thanks tigajr,

Can someone enable the "Pointer Location" option from "Developer Options" and play with phone and see if it happens?

I think when it is off from the start of phone everything is fine. But when I enable this feature after a while bottom of the screen gets tapped repeatedly.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] jonesychris:
I would like to be able to tether my HTC View to my iPhone 4 via bluetooth to share the internet connection. It works successfully via MiWi with the wireless hotspot. I would like to use the bluetooth instead though since the wifi hotspot kills my battery and makes my phone physically hot to the touch after a few hours of it. Is this possible?

The 2 devices do pair through mywi using bluetooth. But when i click to connect and use for internet access the View just sits there and says connecting.

iPhone is running 5.0.1 and is jailbroken

HTC View is running 3.2.1 and is rooted and s-off
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] ghanada:
Sorry, I don't have a solution for you. I was just more curious if your wireless carrier has found out about you tethering and tried to force you into a tethering plan? I really want to jailbreak my iPhone for tethering but it sounds like there isn't a fullproof way of not letting carriers find out you are doing this.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] jamus28:
I would like to do the same. I've read on other forums that some have success with honeycomb connecting to 4.0 miwi
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] jonesychris:
I've been using tethering for about 6 months now. In the beginning it was only when wifi wasn't available for my laptop, or my wife's iPhone on trips (she has 200mb data)

They have not complained yet but it was very low data usage before. I'm sure my data will increase now so I will have to see. I work in IT, everywhere I go has wifi. I've used 702mb of data this month (1/2 through cycle). I'm normally around around 300 - 400mb of data a month. I'm also grandfathered into unlimited plan, so they get $30 a month from me for data. I doubt they are complaining much since i'm such a light user. This bill will be my first full month with the view, so we will see if I ever get any complaints.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] ghanada:
Ah ok, well keep us updated. I too am grandfathered in on unlimited data on my iPhone 4. And I also am a fairly light user (< 1GB/month), but everyone makes it sound like the carriers are jumping on illegal tethering pretty hard. Regardless of how much data is actually used, they know from the ports that tethering is happening. I almost wouldn't mind paying for a tethering account, but the worst part about doing it is that you lose unlimited regular data.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] tito12:
Reading your posts, I can't understand why tethering is "illegal" or forbidden. I you pay for a data plan, why can't one use it on any device?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] jonesychris:
Because they want to charge for it. Not sure

No one has successfully tethered with bluetooth?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] jonesychris:
I found this article with some searching.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1374213&highlight=bluetooth+tether

I wonder if this would work with the View. Same WPA file work?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] redpoint73:
Its not "illegal", in that I don't think you can get thrown in jail or sued for it.

But you agree to the carrier's Terms & Conditions when you sign up to use their network, whether you like it or not (or bothered to read them). Violation of the Terms means that the carrier can terminate your service, add charges to your account, or other repercussions, depending on what the Terms state.

Not sure what carrier's policies are in Israel. But in the US, most of the big carriers have specific statements in their Terms of Use, that prohibit tethering other devices to your phone without a tethering specific plan. If you are caught violating this policy, they reserve the right to add that plan to your account, or even drop your account if they want.

And yes, its of course so they can charge you extra. I completely agree that data should be data. And if you pay for a certain amount of data, or on an unlimited plan, then ideologically it should not make a difference if you are tethered or not. But there are many times in life where the most logical or fair concept is not what happens in reality. Especially in the for-profit business world.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] jonesychris:
No one has any ideas? Surely i'm not the first person who has tried to do this.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tanman1975:
Just got it yesterday. Beautiful phone. worked great... when it worked. Loved how nice all the upgrades to ICS were...

Put it on charger and set my alarm when I went to sleep.... and it never went off.

Phone is dead black: blottoed.

Even when plugged in.

A very expensive brick.

I am dissapoint.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jam10238:
Did you try pulling the battery and SIM card out for a minute or two and putting it back in?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tanman1975:
HOLY CRAP, IT WORKED! I'm buying you a beer!

I take it this is a known problem.

How weird.

How often is that going to happen? I can't be missing work sporadically because of this.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] andythefan:
You probably shouldn't post such sensationalist titles. You're essentially saying that all the Galaxy Nexuses that they sold are likely defective just because your device stopped working once.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tanman1975:
Noted.

In my defense, I didn't realize the screen had merely blacked out and the phone was actually on.

I had zero indication if the phone was charging and zero feedback when trying to turn the phone on or off.

Since I was convinced the battery (and thus, phone) was dead, it never occurred to me to pull the battery and try again, and out of my G1, N1, GS, Sensation and Amaze, I've never seen a problem like this.

On the other hand, I never said that all the GN's from Daily Steals are bad. Just mine. And you have to admit, calling them about it is kind of a *****.

I will, however, edit the title.

PS. It's since happened again since the reboot. WTH am I doing to cause this?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] EddyOS:
It's the USB cable, mine stopped working. Now using the one from my old HTC and it's fine
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] donutman:
Lol have you ever owned a smartphone before? When in doubt, pull the battery out! :p

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nfribeiro:
Does anyone know in battery usage why the colour of the phone signal sometimes changes to a different yellow. What does it mean?

Attached you can find an example.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cosmic Blue:
it is signal strength.

solid yellow means phone is working properly

pale yellow means there was a signal issue and phone had some trouble connecting.

break or no colour meant the phone could not connect to the network.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nfribeiro:
Yes but why we have two different yellows, one more bright?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nfribeiro:
Please help on this?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cosmic Blue:
the bright shade of yellow the better the signal strength, the bright means that you were in a good location which received a clear and strong signal.(ie outdoors or indoors ins an area with indows near by.

paler yellow means that you were probably in doors away where you could not receive a strong signal because it had to penetrate through walls.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xrodriguez:
Hi,

Does anybody know if the new features introduced in ICS (Beam feature for instance) may help in the use of 'NFC card emulation' ?

Thanks,

Javier
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shailentj:
This is indeed a million dollar question. I would really like to know an official answer to it.

Current research lead me to the following information:

1) Unofficial Android 2.3.4+ supports Card Emulation for Nexus S. This custom Android OS has no official Google support and the APIs may not fully work.

2) You can have card emulation using Inside's Open NFC Stack 4.3.3 for ICS. I checked the website, and the documentation, live working examples were very weak/almost non-existant. Inside attemps to compete with NXP. With such a website, I see failure for Inside.

I also do not fully understand the hype around NFC if the most important feature - Card Emulation - is not functional.

Some companies, such as Assa Abloy have implement mobile keys based on NFC. I do not know whether they used custom-hacked phones to act as card-emulated phones.

Please share any additional info you find on this topic!

A plain reader/writer can't do much in my opinion. In order for interesting applications such as mobile payments, mobile keys etc to work, card emulation should be enabled.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] korn2k:
Any news on this topic?

// Offtopic

Another question is whether the Galaxy Nexus supports the single-wire protocol or not? Particularly, is the SIM card physically connected to the NFC controller?

NFC UID on Nexus S with ICS 4.0.3

Hi there,

I am using a Samsug Google Nexus S (I9023) with ICS v4.0.3

Does anyone know how can i get a Unique Identifier (UID) in my card emulation application (Mifare 1K) instead of the Random Identifier (RID) ?

I can't use NFC in my company access control if the Identifier is never the same...

Is there any form to pass trough this?

Is this one intentional leak on google official API?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shailentj:
It appears that nobody has yet performed card-emulation on the Nexus S running ICS 4.0.x.

Update:

I tried it myself, and obtained limited functionality. I was also not able to read the ID of the emulated card when the phone was off. (that somehow defies the purpose of card emulation.)

UPDATE (05.05.2012):

I managed to force the ID of the secure element to be fixed. The phone can now be read by an NFC reader even when the phone is off. The Nexus S' NFC antenna (found on the back cover, under a black coating) is powered by the RF field generated by the reader and the embedded SE can be read by the external reader.

If anybody is still interested in the above subject, I will post my steps and compiled sources.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shailentj:
Yes, with the hacked Gingerbread OS provided by M0rtadelo (you have to compile from source - nasty procedure, requires good knowledge and confidence with Linux) or by softy007 (search his blog for the compiled binaries), you will be able to have card-emulation working. It is for experimental purposes only. The UID will be fixed, but you cannot do much from there.

Card emulation is too much in its infancy to be able to do what you want right now. You may do some research on SEEK for Android. I don't know about your company, but the latter might not like a hacked android phone due to security issues.

Yes, this is intentional. Nick Pelly and Jeff Hamilton officially state so on the official Google IO 2011 presentation. (http://www.google.com/events/io/2011/sessions/how-to-nfc.html)
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drummaniac:

I'm really interested in this post. Currently, I'm doing the same thing that marco-f.nunes wants to do.

I would like to emulate all the Galaxy Nexus of my company to allow them to open every locked doors. Thus, I just want to emulate a passive NFC tag (through an app for now) [EDIT: but it's just a POC!]

So, I would be really interested and grateful if you could post it!

Thanks. :)

Hi Shailentj,

I am trying to develop a NFC application to read the nfc tag, this works fine on emulator, but not working on device/phone.

Please do advice me the steps that help me to read nfc tag through the phone. the app is also having other non nfc model along with it. all others models are working fine expect the nfc part.

Please do help me. also please provide me the steps that you performed and also the compiled source.

Thanks and Regards

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lorde85:
I there, been watching this subject for a while ago and things are going slower then we'd like...'cause everyone wants card emulation to work so that you can just forget your card at home and then pull out your phone and still go to work without calling a mate to open up the door for you.

There's still nothing done, pretty and nifty but it seems there are quite a few solutions to turn up...recently i checked this:

hxxps://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=at.mroland.android.apps.nfctaginfo

which reads all of my MIFARE 1k cards and pulls out a lot information, but it still as a problem to get the KEYs, of course...the sectors are encrypted...but the above app let's you force the keys A and B to use to read all sectors...you just need to crack A and B KEYs.

So i think, dispite the phone beeing able or not to emulate a tag...i think there's still the problem of getting the keys...so it can truelly emulate the tag, am i correct fellows? 'cause i didn't see anyone talking about this...and it's clear for me...

MIFARE Classic algorithm was hacked some years ago that's not the problem, we can get the keys, proof of concept was people got transportation cards cloned (Oysters for ex.)...but to do so they needed to clone the cards, and for that they had to hack MIFARE Classic algorithm...

Still with me?! Bottom line...maybe i'm getting all wrong...so without getting the KEYs of the card (hacking it!) you won't be able to emulate it with your phone...
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vetvito:
Correct, a lot of work cards, gate cards, etc have proprietary software and codes. So getting the keys from the card is a huge issue, and a security issue.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amasunka:
I have random access to the security systems at ond of my sites and if i hold my nexus up against the reader it beep / pulse the invalid Card witch it should say once, when then go in to the security logs loads of card ids in the log, is there a way to get the phone to always have the same id?

Why card emulation makes so complicate

I might be wrong. I think the card emulation make things too complicate. If a NFC enabled phone, why not just act as a simple tag with no SE, no SWP, no UICC. Or reader just read such emulated card's UID then proceed the server-side data read back. It likes an ID card, no need to store any sensitive data. When reader gets the UID, anything can be done.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Crusnik01:
I too hope there is some progress in this field?

It would be really great to just clone/dump the raw information from my RFID tag (Mifare Classic 1K) at work, and then use card emulation on my phone to access all the doors and elevators. :D

What I'm struggling to understand, and where I'm hitting a wall in my research, is where the true limitation(s) lie? Is it in the Secure Element access, and that we need it to control the NFC chip? Or is it simple lack of high level APIs to gain access to the low level functionality of the NFC chip?
