Hi all,

I've just bought a Galaxy SII and behind it's write I9100P with Orange logo, so I think i can enabled the NFC chip.

I've installed Omega JellyBean v7.1 which hasn't NFC option and i use this mod to enabled it.

Now, i can see NFC option in parameters, but it doesn't seem to work :( when i try to share information through NFC with a Samsung Galaxy SIII... no reaction :/

Anyone have the same problem ?

Thanks :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] jthatch12:
Is the option greyed out or can you toggle it?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] bkd35:
Hi,

Yesterday it's was gray. Today, after another reboot i can enabled and disabled option.

But it still doesn't work. When i open google maps and try to transfer through NFC with a Galaxy S3, nothing happens.

Any idea ?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] jthatch12:
if you can toggle it, it should work. Do you both have android beam on?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] bkd35:
Yes, me and my friend have android beam on :/ it's really strange.

Can i retrieve logs from eclipse to understand what's happend ? or anything else ?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] jthatch12:
I think the s3 has sbeam which may be completely different but I am unsure
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Product F(RED):
S-Beam is an add on to Beam. It let's you transfer additional things between S3's. But regular Beam works normal.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] bkd35:
Yes, we have try with S-Beam disabled and android beam enabled on SIII
[Galaxy S II Android Development] jthatch12:
Last part of the equation. What rom are you using?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Product F(RED):
You can have both enabled I believe and it should still be backwards compatible with normal S-Beam.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] bkd35:
I'm using Omega v7.1 (JB)

I tried putting the version NFCICS Enabler-jthatch12v1 on the latest revolution remix, the phone is a rooted phone with siyah kernal (ex orange uk branded) mounted the system, everything went fine and I can now see the nfc option but it isn't showing as it usually would at the top of the screen I enabled the nfc toggle but it just will not enable (for me to see anyway) is this a problem with ex orange branded i9100p's???
[Galaxy S II Android Development] jthatch12:
Have you done a reboot since installing the patch? And sorry guys,I'm really pressed for time still :(, I'll try to push out an update asap
[Galaxy S II Android Development] bkd35:
No problem jthatch12 :) I will wait :p

I have bought TecTiles on eBay to try and found what's happen !
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Tevion74:
Thanks

I think it might be working but I will need to test it later with a friends phone.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] bkd35:
Hi,

I've just received my TecTiles to try NFC, but it still doesn't work. So i think problem is from my phone :)

After investigation, i found that my battery doesn't have 'Near Field Communication" is it normal on a I9100P ?

I thought that the NFC chip was in phone and not in the battery on this model, right ?

Thanks :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] jthatch12:
Correct. Is your battery aftermarket?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] bkd35:
I don't know. I've bought a used product on Internet, so maybe seller has changed battery. I have sent him an email to have answer :)

Otherwise I will buy another battery with NFC (if i found one !)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] merlin051:
If your phone is the i9100P the NFC is built into the phone, not the Battery I thought?

although saying that my i9100P has 'Near Field Communication' printed on the battery, which is the original.

This Mod didnt work for me when I tried it last.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] masse62:
The NFC chip is on the phone board but the battery has the NFC antenna on it. If you look carefully you should see some rectangular stripes running on the external side of the battery...

So to have a working NFC phone you MUST have a i9100P model with the original battery!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] merlin051:
that makes sense, thanks for clarifying this.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] bkd35:
With new battery, it works like a charm :) thx
[Galaxy S II Android Development] krazierokz:
hey guys i had NFC in my phone when i had it stock but after a ROM flash its not there my battery is NFC and i used it when i first got the phone so question is can i just flash this and should be good or would that mess up my framework being im on the t989 thanks in advanced jthatch
[Galaxy S II Android Development] SteveMurphy:
You're on the t989? You should be in your Verizon forum, my friend. Don't think this NFC fix will work on other SII models other than i9100/i777.

[Galaxy S II Android Development] krazierokz:
t989 is not Verizon dude its tmobile and the OP clearly states that it works for my phone but i was asking for some input but thanks anyway ill be alright

[Galaxy S II Android Development] nicogri:
Hi jthatch12,

I'm using your nfc mod on my S2 running CM9.1 and it works like a charm.

I use the NFC task launcher to trigger different actions on my phone... I love it !!!

Something I miss and wich has been developped on some other phones is the possibility to use NFC with screen locked or screen off...

From what I have seen, peaople with S3 have modified their NFC.apk to allow it to run on screenoff or locked (there are alway 3 version : stock / lock / off and you flash the one you prefer).

I didn(t find any additional info on the how to proceed. I don't know if it is easy or hard, if you can/want to do it.

But if you want I can try or help you... I'm kind of a noob in Android developpement but I'm a system administrator so I know a little about scripting...

So that's it I hope we can get this functionnality because I love NFC but it is painfull to have to power the screen and unlock it to poll a tag...

Thanks

Nicolas
[Galaxy S II Android Development] jthatch12:
I'll take a look into it. It could be as simple as switching out the .apk. Though if this function is something you really want, I do know, currently CM10 and AOKP JB have this functionality already implemented.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] nicogri:
Thanks for your reply.

Where is the screen capture coming from ? Is it from JB ?

What do you meen by simply switching apk ?

I'm not sure we can use an apk for an other device cause even for s3 there are almost 10 versions...

I know that one custom rom for s2 has this function built in... But how tout extract the apk and Will it be compatible

Anyway many thanks
[Galaxy S II Android Development] jthatch12:
Yes, the screenshot is from AOKP jellbean. Try flashing the JB version 4 patch. It has the latest version of NFC from CM10
[Galaxy S II Android Development] nicogri:
Trying right now

:)

---------- Post added at 10:26 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:01 PM ----------

So as I am a carefull man, I backed up my rom in cwm.

Then I flashed your jb file v4 and reboot.

Nfc option is gone in wireless (Android beam too)

The tag are not working so I rebooted to flash ics file back. Option was here again but no succes with tag so Nfc don't work.

So i restored my rom and Nfc is working again ?

Hope thoses informations help
[Galaxy S II Android Development] jthatch12:
Assumed that might happen lol. Yeah if you restore your rom you should be golden. This is why I have a patch for ICS and JB. The JB patch is more supported though because this is what I run. Just a heads up.;)

Or just reboot your phone. On first boot after installing the patch you wont be able to toggle NFC. It should be there but it'll be grayed out. To remedy this reboot your phone and toggle away.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] nicogri:
Also I cannot untick Nfc in wireless when i flashed back ics file and Nfc wasn't working.

Weird...

Going to sleep now ;)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] jthatch12:
Read what I said above for furture reference.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] nicogri:
Hi,

So for now I am not ready to use JB...

I am used to run ROMs that doesn't work perfectly (as I com from HTC DHD and HTC decided to $^ù*ù^$ù all of us with not releasing ICS and kernel sources...)

So for now I prefer to stay on ICS, wait for Samsung to release JB and all the stuff that come from to have a stable CM10 (especially camcorder and camera).

Can you tell me where to begin to modify your ICS apk by myself ?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] jthatch12:
I'm not really sure why people think there is problems with CM10 camera and camcorder. I have had no issues ever.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] nicogri:
My bad for camera, I miss read the bug list on cyanogen developper team page

http://teamhacksung.org/wiki/index.php/CyanogenMod10:GT-I9100:Nightly:Known_issues

Anyway I am not quite ready to return on nightly... I f$$^ùù freak to be force to flash a nightly 1 day on 2 like I did for 3 months with DHD with nandroid each time and sometimes full wipes... (HTC traumatism inside...)

So I'll be happy to try to add this functionnality on ICS...

I have never seen the inside of an apk but it must be full of variables with maybe one "set onscreenoffpolling = 0" or something like this (and for JB they decide to put a combobox in place)

Or I am totally wrong and it is a lot difficult then I thought... :(:(:(
[Galaxy S II Android Development] jthatch12:
I'm making a new patch now that may or may not fix it

http://db.tt/doDb7Q6f
[Galaxy S II Android Development] nicogri:
It did !!! :victory::victory::victory::victory:

It's so cool ^^. At first I thought it didn't worked... I had NFC option grayed out so I rebooted as you instructed... the same grayed out and not working.

So I shut it down and reboot the same... I decided to reboot in recovery to restor (so sad) and I did a oops... I choose Reboot instead... at reboot I check and miracle option is normal...

Better than that NFC is working on screenoff !!!! Yes

Maybe the problem was I already had NFC and the file is maybe not procedeed at every reboot if it thinks it's the same ?

Anyway it work, I'm so happy, you are a Rockstar !

---------- Post added at 10:50 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:44 AM ----------

I think you can put it in your original thread... it is good to go at least for 4.0.4 :good:
[Galaxy S II Android Development] nicogri:
Ok... I spoke a little bit fast...

It works but only for some time.

When you boot the phone : polling on screen off OK (and screen on too)

You put the phone away for some time (5 minutes) then you loose the screen off polling (unlocked still good)

Even if you wake the phone and then lock it and try right away to poll, nothing appen, you must reboot the phone to be able to use screenoff...

When you unlock the phone with screenoff not working it feel like NFC take some time to wake up and get the first tag... next are get instantaniously...

I think we (you ^^) are very close
[Galaxy S II Android Development] jthatch12:
Try fixing permissions
[Galaxy S II Android Development] nicogri:
It is very strange now I have some GSM problem... at boot it tells me I have to reboot my phone with a sim card installed to use network... but after reboot it tell me the same....

Also reboot and stop takes like forever ^^ maybe I should buy an Iphone... (just kidding)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] jthatch12:
That's nothing that this patch would've created
[Galaxy S II Android Development] nicogri:
I agree I think more on some Android problems after fix permissions. I removed thé battery and i am back on track but as this morning screenoff polling only works upon boot.

I can try to give you some log or anything you need...

@Update:

No success at all... The nfc config appears in settings but Tags app don't appear in applications list.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] jthatch12:
so did it work or no? And tags app is included but it doesn't show as an independent application anymore. Try a third party app
[Galaxy S II Android Development] davidspwy:
Yup, Using third party app could use the nfc function in M250K. It 's working on 4.1.2 Sammy Rom like NeatRom,Disaster,Lidroid,etc .:good:
[Galaxy S II Android Development] :
i can confirm this doesn't work on I9100 though i still wanted to give it a try for fun.

As told it doesn't have the chip but still :D

but the option is there, sad that i don't got the P version then :( but it work as an option in XXLSJ

if your device is a i9100 it will not work. It only works for i9100p because that device has the nfc chip in it.

Hi jthatch12,

I used (in G9100P) AOKP rom and V3 of your patch and it's worked very good.

Since a few days I use "Indie" rom (XXLSJ with mod) and I tried to install V4 version : but impossible to find parameters for NFC in menu... I tried to reinstall and fix permisions but nothing more...

I read a post that it works in XXLSJ but not in mine : don't know why.

Do you have any explanation ?

Thanks in advance.

I am just saying it is not as fast as their GB version. Can't people have opinions :rolleyes:. And if you think sony stops developing new software because of comments like mine you have no clue.

For the record I appreciate sony for releasing the ICS version which lead to release of awesome roms like JJ's Hybrid and Acronium. Though better than stock they also have considerable lag which could be entirely fault of ICS. A Jelly Bean version from sony will be cool. I hope sony is listening to me ;).
