The only thing that consistently works for me is drawing figure-8's, just like I had to do with my old Motorola Milestone.

1. Open compass application

2. Hold the phone above you, parallel to the ground, with the screen

3. Keeping the phone in the same relative position, wave your arm in large figure eights like you were painting the sky. (by "same relative position," I mean the phone stays parallel to the ground, screen skyward, and you swivel your hand while making the figure eights so that the phone doesn't swivel.

4.Make about six figure eights in a row without stopping. Try to keep the same path, phone orientation, etc. The bigger the figure eight, the better.

5. Bring the phone back down so you can see the screen. The compass needle should slowly swing to North, and then hold North - until you move. Repeat if necessary.

6. Repeat as necessary. I have to do it every time I want to use the compass

My phone is rooted and has busy box and see super cid, but it is not unlocked I am still running stock rom that it came with with firmware version 1.85. I recently started checking CPU spy to see the state times of my processor. Well, the application reports that my phone does not go into deep sleep at all it is usually at the top frequency of 1512 or the bottom frequency of 384 as well as one more in between. Has anyone had this problem or does anyone know of a fix for it?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Kindatired:
Install better battery stats and find out what is causing the wake ups. Most likely an app you have installed.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] stnguyen09:
Try going into your WiFi settings and un checking "best WiFi performance" or something like that. I remember awhile ago that it caused some phones to never deep sleep because WiFi would cause an indefinite wakelock
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Rad ryan:
Thanks to both of you who posted some responses to my questions. I installed better battery sat and had had it running for about the last day and I don't know if it did something when I installed it or if it just fixed itself but I just checked it 3 CPU spy and it has been in deep sleep 46 percent of the time now. Also I had thought about checking in to the wifi and out what's going to be my next step but it seems to be fixed now so thank you anyway for your suggestion. And thank you very much for all of the help. I know this isn't the right thread to ask this in but is there a fix for the multi tasking /recent reloading any app upon switching or is it fixed in the 2.20 update?
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jma9454:
So when I first rooted my kindle fire, I was using the KFU, and chose to use TWRP recovery, since that was first on the list. Then, looking at the ROM Manager in the pre-installed apps, it wanted CWM, so I installed it. Well, I don't like it very much, or at least I like TWRP a WHOLE lot better. So i tried using the KFU to reinstall TWRP, and when I booted my Kindle Fire...it booted with CWM. How do i get back the most amazing bootloader (TWRP) ever?
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] soupmagnet:
The TWRP that comes with KFU does not work. Replace it with one downloaded from the TWRP site...OR...go to the TWRP thread in the Development section and look for the flashable .zip for use in recovery...OR...use Smirkit

Every NFC tags come with a unique tag ID.

Instead of writing task/action into the NFC tags like what other does.

AnyTAG NFC Launcher let user stored list of tasks and tied it with the NFC tag ID. So when user scanned NFC tag, AnyTAG will recognize the tag ID and perform configured tasks accordingly.

No modification of NFC tags stored data at all.

Why we created AnyTAG NFC Launcher?

We created this simply because we want you save money not to buy expensive NFC tags.

We actually surrounding with a lot of NFC tags,

ov-chipkaart netherlands

i installed this program on my new sIII 32gb and works fine with latest stockrom build IMM76D

nice addition to this is one can use the ov-chipkaart here in netherlands

with this program one can add m.9292.nl to the ov-chipkaart so it would go straight to the website on touch of the chipkaart to the back of the phone :highfive: note: cannot write the chipcard without the proper security key B(this can read and write and is found in the blue boxes) (A is only for reading.. this yellow boxes in the busses) . so dont worry about ruinin the chipcard, it just reads the serialnr and data of the card which is then be used for recognition of the card. it does not write or alter anything on the chipcard itself, however with right key and writer prog it would work :cowboy::angel::D

just briljant..

[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] jimbobtexas:
So how does the launcher work after you've created tasks for the tag? In other words, AnyTAG isn't the default app associated with NFC, so it doesn't automatically start up when scanning a tag from the home screen. When I scan a tag set up in AnyTAG, I'm prompted to go to Google Play, because the tag doesn't have anything written to it.

How to I make AnyTAG the associated app for "blank" tags?
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] jjohns63:
I'd like to use this app with the Samsung TecTiles (http://goo.gl/5ECmQ) but am having an issue. The tags launch the Play Store if you don't have the Samsung app installed. So, I can set up the task in AnyNFC using one of the tags, but when I try to use the tag, it just launches the Play Store instead of performing the AnyNFC task. Of course, if I install the Samsung app, it just tries to execute the task programmed by Samsung, not AnyNFC. Any ideas on how I could get AnyNFC to take priority?

I can send a logcat if it would help debug or find a workaround.

[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] jjohns63:
After doing some more investigation, I see how the Samsung app is working. Basically there is a preprogrammed NDEF record that is somehow associated to the Play Store, and a package name. Great, that launches the market, but how does the Samsung app process the tag after programming, before the Play Store is launched?

These two lines pretty much give it away:

I/NfcDispatcher( 673): matched AAR to NDEF
I/ActivityManager( 362): START {act=android.nfc.action.NDEF_DISCOVERED dat=tectile://www.samsung.com/us/microsite/tectile/error?action=settings&bluetooth=on&description=null pkg=com.samsung.tectile cmp=com.samsung.tectile/.TagReaderActivity (has extras) u=0} from pid 673

It seems that the programmed NdefRecord has a payload with some data (the "tectile://" part). Unprogrammed TecTiles have a single payload with a samsung.com web address that redirects to the Play Store.

Now, according to the Android developer docs, the intent ACTION_NDEF_DISCOVERED is launched before any others, and if something handles the intent, then no further intents are attempted. This is where I get stuck. How to get the AnyTAG app to respond to http:// intents or other intents already found on a tag?

Hopefully this helps and something can be done. I'd really like to use this app, or another as the Samsung app is not very comprehensive and limited to one "category" of actions per tag.

EDIT:

One thing I quickly tried was decompiling the APK and adding

<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.nfc.action.NDEF_DISCOVERED" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
<data android:scheme="tectile" android:host="www.samsung.com" android:path="/us/microsite/tectile/error" />
</intent-filter>

to AndroidManifest.xml, in order to match the Samsung app, but it had no effect. Not sure why.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] wedjohn57:
May I know what Tag are you using?

Not for official rom. some custom rom do allow that.

i do not have tagtile tag, if you don't mind i can compile a version for you with the tagtile intent filter. I suspect the same.

[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] JuniorBevins:
Good, but some hiccups

Hey there,

Just watched your XDA TV and definiately was curious. I also just found out that my Samsung TecTiles came so I was excited there too! I have a Galaxy SIII (VZW) and once I opened the package the glich happened.

What I'm guessing is that the TecTiles are preprogrammed to send you to download the Samsung App. This superceeds AnyTAG. Once I downloaded it I could use your app. But if anything is programmed on the TecTile it won't launch your app.

Also I'm having forced closing issues. I set up on a lil crazy:

1) Toggle the Wifi

2)Take a picture with the front camera

3) Launch a music player

4)Hit play

5) send a test text message

After it saves the picture then it force closes. I believe it's the camera action. I send a Google Report for you. If I knew how to export it from a stock phone I would.

This may be a noob thing as well but I also tried out NFC Task Launcher, and their tasks take over your launcher too if it's programmed by it.

Geat App, let me know if there is anything else you need.

Hello! I have the same isue that another user: after configuring the tags with AnyTAG NFC Launcher, when I san it again, it launches the default instruccions that where written and not the ones asigned in AnyTAG.

I am currently using a Nexus 7, maybe this can be the problem?
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] jjohns63:
Well it did not fix the Tectiles for me. Both programmed and unprogrammed. The programmed ones will still either open the Tectiles app, or if that is disabled/uninstalled, the Play Store. Unprogrammed tags open a web browser that redirects to the Play Store.

Here is the full AndroidManifest.xml from the tectiles app, in case you haven't looked at it yourself: http://pastebin.com/eXSex2ER. Maybe you can see something that I can't.

Hi I'm new here.

I don't even remember how this EVO Started looping, but it was NOT rooted (To my knowledge and right now it's S-ON)

I can access HBOOT but thats it/

I've looked through tons of threads and have tried the following:

Like 5 different PC36IMG.zip files (one directly from a AMON RA post directly) with these it says that error message like(might not be exact):

SD Checking

Loading PC36DIAG.zip

No Image!

Loading PC36DIAG.mbh

No Image!

Loading PC36IMG.zip

Then it goes to another page just saying

Checking PC36IMG.zip

and then goes to the normal HBOOT window, no ask to install or nothing and I've formatted the cards various times, got another card, same thing formatted it, no luck.

I also got 3 versions of the RUU: RUU_SuperSonic_GB_Sprint_WWE_4.67.651.3_Radio_2.15.00.12.19_NV_2.33_release_234563_signed.exe

RUU_SuperSonic_GB_Sprint_WWE_4.54.651.1_Radio_2.15.00.0808_NV_2.15_release_220182_signed.exe

RUU_SuperSonic_S_Sprint_WWE_3.70.651.1_Radio_2.15.00.11.19_NV_1.90_release_161482_signed.exe

It will pick up the phone and always just stick at the part where it reboots the phone to the black background and silver HTC logo (Its not too far in, I don't think)

I even downloaded AndroidFlasher and tried to flash the files from PCIMG36.zip (or whatever it was, I was using a guide) and that also failed.

My info for the phone is:

Supersonic EVT2-3 Ship S-ON

HBOOT-2.16.0001

I just tried using Android Beam on two Skyrockets running FL6 with Stock batteries. Unfortunately, it didn't work. In addition, I don't have access to an NFC Tag to test it. Has anyone experienced issues with NFC on the stock build of ICS?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] kishke:
It should work, make sure its set to on on both devices via settings>more>NFC.

NFC is turned off by default.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] hmmwhatsthisdo:
NFC and Android Beam are enabled on both devices, it just seems like neither one is detecting anything. Does anyone know of an NFC tester that can detect if two devices are in Beam range?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] kishke:
open browser on one, remove cases and hold them together in a cross shape, the beam function should pop up by then.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] aycockonxion:
Being "in Beam range" shouldn't be a problem, because it's designed to work when the devices are touching back-to-back and not much farther than that. If NFC is enabled on both devices and they are properly situated back-to-back and it's still not working, you may have a bad battery or a ROM issue.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] kishke:
Oh ye I forgot to mention you must have stock battery, most replacement batteries don't have the antenna for NFC.
