Well currently screen off does not work for me on standard and aosp build ROMs.

It seems after awhile the mod stops working. However lock screen works fine.

So I have managed to achieve what I wanted to do with the use of tasker. Also probably its saving on my battery usage as well.

Hi Optimal

thanks very very much for trying to mod the nfc.apk for note2!

Im very frustrated that nfc does not work on lockscreen/standby on my note2 so i even tried your s3 versions of the mod. But thats not a good idea since it force closes and the system has serious stability issues ;)

The nfc.apk you posted above does not force close at all but simply does not work when the screen is off. Perhaps its cause ive installed build xxdmc3 (i think its the latest or very recent)

i'll attach my xxdmc3 note 2 nfc.apk

would be so cool if you can try to mod it... i'll try it out for sure!

thanks again!

Screen off did not work for me.

[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] OptimalKiller:
the file attached has a missing nfc.odex file. Anyway I will create 2 mods for this screenoff and Lockscreen version if you could be so kind and test that would be great,

What Build version are you running? I take it the screenlock version was working o.k?

Optimal
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] JVogler:
I use WidgetLocker, so Nfc always has worked on lockscreen and I didn't try your LS version. I'm not certain of exact build version as it just says Clean ROM 3.5 I can try and find out which build (it's on Android 4.1.2) this is based off from Scott though.

I could upgrade to his latest 4.9 version based off DMC3 if you think that would help.

-- Note II, TapaTalk II--
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] OptimalKiller:
Note II DMC3

Note II Users Only

I have created a lockscreen & screenoff NFC version for DMC3 Builds. Again always backup the files before applying patch. Would be good if someone can confirm this version works both lockscreen and screenoff.

[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] micro17:
hi thank you for another attempt!

tried both versions... sadly both do not work- there are no fcs and the nfc still works when unlocked as before the mod...

[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] OptimalKiller:
I just don't get it. The lockscreen version works when the screen is on and that its requesting a swipe or pin to enter the phone. by default the nfc does not work until the user has swiped or enter their pin before it works.

the screenoff should work when the screen is off. im shocked the lockscreen does not work. Has there been any note II nfc mods that have actually worked?

Optimal
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] micro17:
yep there where nfc.apk mods that worked for note2... but that was a while ago...

perhaps samsung has changed something... but the s3 versions seem to work ?so.... i dont think note2s nfc is very different..

but im no expert at all ;) sorry.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] OptimalKiller:
well there is not a major difference but i would have thought the screen lock mod would have worked on the note II

o.k. I will take a look again tomorrow to see what wrong.

Optimal
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] JVogler:
Where did you find a working mod? I've tried all I can get my hands on, would be interested in trying this one.

It appears that Samsung turns the NFC sensor off at the hardware level when screen is off is what the last developer came to as a conclusion. Does this seem like the reason to you Optimal?

-- Note II, TapaTalk II--
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] micro17:
here it is. ;)

But it only worked for lockscreen mode i think.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] OptimalKiller:
Sorry people,

not been on a such been busy flashing other roms AOSP and AOKP so have not had time to look at the NFC. I will have another crack at the Note II this weekend. to be honest i do think the screen off mod is unreliable.

Anyway I'm now on MIUI rom as I have found the AOSP and AOKP just to buggy compared to the stock samsung rom. so I am going to hack the NFC on MIUI rom once I have dont that I will work on the Note II Lockscreen version first the the screen off.

Not all of the functions work on S3 XXUMFE7 but some do including centre clock and NFC on when screen is locked. Another bonus is being able to turn the torch on by using volume up when the screen is locked.

It doesn't break anything (that I have found) but you should always do a full backup before trying just to be safe.

If you have any problems with version 12 try the attached version 2. It doesn't have as many features but many of them work with the S3. Most user feedback is that V2 was most compatible with the S3 and bits have 'broken' in each release since then. V12 seems pretty good to me though.

[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] Thomas Le Pew:
I had the same problem after the stability-update from August. Aparently, the problem is an old version of CWM. I flashed Philz Touch, then I could install the NFC-mod without any problem.

Edit: Ich seh grad, wir können uns auch auf Deutsch unterhalten. Ich hatte auch das Problem mit einer Fehlermeldung, als ich nach dem Stabi-Update vom August wieder den NFC-Mod installieren wollte. Hat sich dann rausgestellt, dass es an einer veralteten Version von CWM lag. Mir hat dann einer von Handy-FAQ den Tip gegeben, Philz Touch zu flashen. Und damit ging es dann tatsächlich problemlos, mein NFC funktioniert jetzt wieder aus dem Sperrbildschirm heraus.

MOD problem with I9300XXLH1

Hello !

I tried this mod on my S3 (base band I9300XXLH1), I am able to install from zip file by following this instructions :

1. Deactivate NFC on your phone. This can be done by unticking “NFC” from Settings > More Settings.

2. Copy the NFC mod file to your phone’s internal SD card.

3. Turn off your phone.

4. Boot into ClockworkMod Recovery. Press Volume Up, Home, and Power until ClockworkMod Recovery boots.

5. Make a NANDroid backup of your ROM. You can do this by selecting Backup and Restore > Backup in recovery.

6. Select Install ZIP from SD card > Choose ZIP from SD card. Locate the NFC mod file, select it, and confirm that you want to flash it. Installation shouldn’t take more than a minute.

7. Return to main recovery menu.

8. Select Advanced > Wipe Dalvik cache and confirm the action on the next screen.

9. Return to main recovery menu.

10. Select Reboot system now to restart your phone.

11. Once the phone has rebooted, reactivate NFC on your phone. This can be done by ticking “NFC” from Settings > More Settings.

But when I reboot the phone, the NFC option in : Settings > More Settings (check box) is gone...

Is there a mod supporting my phone's version ?

[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] mayhemer:
There is a check in the Nfc.apk if the screen is locked or off. If it's the case NFC polling is deactivated. I changed this check, so that it is passed for the locked screen or even when screen is off. For screen off there were two checks at different places, that's why it first doesn't work. That's all the magic.

If you want more details: the checks are in the NfcService class. If you want to know the exact function I have to take a look.

Yes, it works with Stock Firmware. I tested it with ALE8, ALF2, ALF5 and ALF6. No problems. But I can't say something about Custom Roms. If you are not sure make a Nandroid Backup before flashing or just backup /system/app/Nfc.apk and /system/app/Nfc.odex.

Thnaks, for the apk. I patched it now. A created both versions, the LockScreen and the ScreenOff version. I uploaded them as apk. You have to replace your /system/app/Nfc.apk with my patches versions and set the right permissions. If you are on an odexed ROM (for example Stock ROM) you also need to remove /system/app/Nfc.odex. I advice you to make a backup of your original Nfc.apk and .odex.

I am going to make a CWM flashable zip file too.

Caution: I do not own this device, so I cannot test its functionality. Please write here if it works for you. Also add infos about your device and firmware version. You can for example use CheckFus (see a few posts above) to get this infos.
