I've bought from tagsfordroid.com and use them with my work phone (HTC One X) at work and at home. I have a tag that silences the phone when I walk into a meeting and one at my desk that turns on wi-fi, bluetooth, starts SiriusXM and sets the volume to a specified level.

I use an app from the Google Market (I can't call it Play - it sounds too stupid) called NFC Task Launcher to program my tags. It's easy and the tags are rewrite-able so you can try out some tasks before settling on them.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] joshw0000:
I did a good bit of research before buying NFC chips. At $3 a piece, Samsung TecTiles are just 1k Mifare chips that they've branded for Samsung. The tagsfordroids are the same thing with a different sticker. I ended up getting 4k chips from Amazon (www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B006K3XWLK/ref=mp_s_a_1?pi=SL75&qid=1348809340&sr=8-1) for less than either of the other guys are selling them.

I'm using one at work to toggle wifi on, bluetooth & gps off, vibrate mode, and all volumes down. Since NFC is relatively new I'm sure more technology will be introduced that requires maximum space to take full advantage of it.

Hope this helps someone.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] SlimSnoopOS:
Here's a couple articles on Rootzwiki about NFC tags/apps. Watching the videos made me want to purchase NFC tags cuz they seem useful:

[Galaxy S III Accessories] joshw0000:
I watched all these videos, thanks. The general census seems to be that 144 bytes is enough storage, according to these guys. Looks like the 5 tags I bought for about $11 (after shipping) is more than enough.

The reason I opted for the most possible memory is because the task I use daily is a "switch" (changes my settings one way, then changes them all the opposite on the next swipe). Just one of the tasks in this switch is 111 bytes so 144 wouldn't cut it for me:

I'm hoping in the future that these chips will be capable of sharing content. Instead of linking websites and changing settings (which is super cool), actually store pictures, music, files, and upload to thr devices on a swipe. Just a thought, it might not be possible. In any case, I think I'm future proofed af least for a short while LOL.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] flash608:
Hi, can you give a link to the tags that you`ve bought? I mean that 4k tags ;)
[Galaxy S III Accessories] joshw0000:
I bought those a long time ago. I honestly don't know if I could ever find them again. Try searching MiFare 4K tags.

I was on google+ helping someone out about rooting his one x then someone else had some interesting things to say (I've blacked out names and pictures incase it's legit, don't want to get any one in trouble)

What do you guys think?
[HTC One X] nism0o:
Probably a troll :)
[HTC One X] bogfather:
You never know, HTC might have seen the error of their ways and decided to give us s-off :D
[HTC One X] stezo2k:
Sounds interesting. I hope Jellybean is around the corner

I tried the alpha build and its smooth as hell
[HTC One X] shadehh:
I mean you removed his name from the list which I find understandable, and the least you could do is provide is with information on who he is? Without those details we can only assume bull****.
[HTC One X] bogfather:
All his profile links to is a website called game-modo. Nothing else in his profile apart from where he lives (UK)
[HTC One X] shadehh:
Despite him not having any information confirming that what he is saying may be legit there's still a possibility.

Considering the fact that the 2.05 test update has been leaked a while back now makes me believe that all options are on the table.

I'll just wait till then :D
[HTC One X] wph:
You better had blackened your own name in those screenshots too. Now it was a matter of minutes till I found your post including that guys posts...
[HTC One X] bogfather:
The conversation was in the nearby feed so anyone could have read it, I was just being courteous and not posting names. If he didn't want it known I don't think he would have posted in an open feed :)
[HTC One X] hugebulge:
HTC hasn't had jelly bean for a long time
[HTC One X] The-Last-Hylian:
And you can back this statement up how exactly?

I'm not saying that HTC deffinately don't have it, I'm saying that they might not not have it ;)
[HTC One X] theliquid:
HTC had the code of Jelly Bean some weeks before official presentation.

Google introduced the Android PDK with Jelly Bean: http://androidandme.com/2012/06/news/googles-android-pdk-could-mean-quicker-updates-for-consumers/
[HTC One X] j_dee:
I just read xmoo's update of his experience with a HOX XE device, and I'd not be too sure if HTC would really provide an OTA update incl. S-OFF.

Maybe the update will make S-OFF easier to achieve, but in the past it usually did not, or am I wrong?

:confused:
[HTC One X] hopscotchjunkie:
I can't imagine, given every other communication from HTC up until now, that they'd suddenly decide to allow users full access to the previously restricted areas of the phone.

And even assuming that they did, I definitely can't see them pushing this ability to all users rather than providing a specific warranty-voiding tool to do so.

That, combined with the fact that he says there'll be a new kernel included as if that's something special rather than a routine part of any update, makes me think that he doesn't know what he's talking about.
[HTC One X] hugebulge:
Jelly bean hasn't been in a functional state for all that long. Most of the builds would have something major broken.
[HTC One X] AJerman:
Original posts and conversations sound like BS. Anyone who actually had that kind of information wouldn't be sharing it publicly like that.

We have every reason to believe that HTC HAS had the Jelly Bean PDK for some time. Google specifically said that major OEMs have already had access to it for a while, and if HTC isn't a major OEM, I don't know who is.

And finally, HTC has already said that if they were to give us S-OFF, which is possible in the future, it would be through HTC-Dev.
[HTC One X] bogfather:
That's what I thought, but he was adamant the guy I was helping should wait.
[HTC One X] BarryH_GEG:
So this person interrupted the OPs thread with a valuable PSA to stop what's he's doing because JB's going to be out soon and it's going to be great? The 2.05 leak has been out for weeks and there's still no deployable version. The thread interrupter, if credible, would know how slowly the wheels of progress move at HTC and s/he'd also know about and probably be active on XDA. Saying something unsupported like that here would get him/her chewed up and spit out.

It seems more like someone looking for validation of how important they are than providing any real "news." Hell, I could go on G+ and say I've heard from a credible source that JB won't be released until January. No one would believe that even though it's no more or less credible because everyone wants to think JB is just around the corner. Samsung had the earliest access of any manufacturer to ICS because of the GN. How many months after that did it take for any of their own devices to get the update?

History is the best predictor of when we'll get JB and its months, not days and weeks. All these Sasquatch sightings being reported from non-credible sources aren’t going to make it happen any faster.
[HTC One X] bogfather:
I take it we're all at the same conclusion, the guys talking rubbish.

I'll keep helping the person who wants to root on here instead of g+, at least on here people help and share instead of trying to stall
[HTC One X] BarryH_GEG:
BTW, I think it's terrific that you take the time to help novices 1:1 to be able to get the most from their phones. XDA used to be like that before it became the place for people to gossip, *****, argue, and seek their 15 minutes of fame.
[HTC One X] bogfather:
I was a total noob once :o until someone helped me, only fair I share back some of the knowledge I've learnt :)
[HTC One X] BenPope:
Just had a thought. The comment about flashing ROM's easier might be a fix that allows boot.img to be flashed from the phone.

But I'm not sure I trust the info either.

Whatever happened to the Modaco guy talking to HTC about that fix?
[HTC One X] forelli:
I say: it looks legit: click me

I got the same kind of answer from HTC UK on twitter lately.

[HTC One X] colin_404:
And hows that 2nd tweet going, or is it like the software updates?
[HTC One X] prankstarr:
Hi everyone...

I have a Vodafone (UK) branded One X. I want the pure stock HTC ROM so i get updates as soon as possible and get rid of Voda bloatware...With jellybean around the corner, this is even more important to me!

So, to do the above, I need S-Off right? And assuming that's correct, is there a thread i can follow to learn how to do it (and can someone post a link?)

THANKS!! :-)
[HTC One X] stuart0001:
Not possible to S-Off yet. Follow this link for progress:

[HTC One X] mattman83:
Specifically you need SuperCID (though that won't get you updates OTA, just the ability to flash them), though the easiest way to get SuperCID is via S-OFF. At the moment S-OFF doens't exist for the One X so you just need to sit tight :)

M.
[HTC One X] prankstarr:
Thanks Matt (and Stuart - i'll start following that thread) - So even if I get the stock One X Rom on my device, I will never get OTA updates? ie my phone will "know" it was not supposed to be an unbranded One X? Not the end of the world because flashing the updates manually should not be too much of a problem...I am regretting not buying an unbranded phone...another 22 months of slow updates etc will suck.

Although Google search is faster you have to consider SiRi pulls up more resources and can do a little more. SiRI can open apps, play music from your phone, and use alternate resources other than Google to pull up even more information. I'm no pro iOS don't get me wrong. But if you're trying to declare a 'winner' you have to decide what the 'fight' is about. Is it about speed or features? Google wins in speed, but SiRi wins in functionality.
[Nexus S General] urko95:
In my opinion, I prefer the simply mode that uses Google Search than Siri... When Google only says two sentences, Siri is teling you a story... I mean, it's tru that Google Search is faster, and this is what I'm looking forward to.

Urko
[Nexus S General] b1337:
That's because you have no iphone
[Nexus S General] rrohanjs:

[Nexus S General] mike.b93:
Have you guys ever read comments on a Apple centered blog? I've never read something more hilarious than stuff like that. They claim that Google copies everything that Apple does. They even think Google stole the "rectangular shape" from Apple.

If you feel like you could use some laughs just check out 9to5mac for example.

I look forward to reading comments about how Google's Voice search is shamelessly copied from Apple's Siri "Innovation". -.- Like Voice Recognition has never been used before Siri... xD
[Nexus S General] jkurl:
Amen Mike. I read mac related stuff all the time. Being a Electronics Tech for a living I keep up w/ most technologies but some of the fanbois just go ape **** about google.

Siri is useless IMHO. Just a novelty piece. Apple users thinks it is the greatest thing since man discovered you could eat stuff off the floor.

ROCKIN LIKE DOKKEN
[Nexus S General] urko95:
And that Apple's fan boys use Google for search, mail, google+, etc. I can't understand that...

[Nexus S General] mike.b93:
I don't understand how people (in the Apple AND the Android Corner) just see how the oponent company "steals" and makes "useless ****" and stuff. I see good things in Apple too but I just don't like Apples products so much. I think a iPhone is much better for someone like my dad who never touched a smartphone than an Android powered phone.

I just love how Android makes it possible for us to flash new ROMs and customize every little thing on our phone. That's the reason i am an Android user. But Apple makes it very, very hard for me lately to say that they make decent Products because they don't spend their time and money on actually inventing NEW stuff and develope their Software to a whole new level but rather just try to get rid of any rivals (especially the biggest danger for Apple: Google and Samsung) by just sueing the living **** out of them which is getting more and more ridiculous.

In my opinion it is time to fight fire with fire. Google should Bond with every Android using company and just sue Apple to their grounds. They are basicly crying for this to happen at some point. Apple is ruining compitition and the market.

Just my 2 cents about this whole Bull**** thats going on right now.

Back to topic:

I am very very impatient to use Google Now and Google voice search. Since I saw the Google Keynote I am on edge :D

Google definitely did some tweaking on the standard voice search, too! I am getting way more accurate results since Google I/O than ever before.
[Nexus S General] 309041291a:
If Google combined efforts with every Android company... There would be no Apple. I think Apple and Google very much are aware of the huge balance in global/general numbers. But there needs to be company to make competitors better, sadly... Apple is having a little trouble seeing that right now though haha. They're too busy trying to destroy everyone over stupid things like taping an icon to be redirected into another (I don't understand how you can claim that's yours.......).

I can still see pros in iPhone, simplicity like you said, but Apple is really just wow. They're going to screw over the phone world for everyone. Eventually they will push Google to bonding with all Android...
[Nexus S General] rrohanjs:
the first voice search i had seen was in a nokia phone before the first iphone was launched lol .. so there goes the copying blame :D
