Hey guys, I'm the creator of the NFC Ring, thought I'd just jump on to say thanks for all the comments.

I'd agree with most of your points, you wil find your own use for your NFC Ring, it might not be unlocking your phone for example.. We actually provide all of our source code on github so you can build your own apps on the back of the NFC Ring..

We don't want to box people into specific use cases, we just provide a few example ones to get hackers started with the possibilities.

Just to answer some criticisms directly:

1) It's just two NFC tags on a ring. Pretty much but the amount of R&D that goes into doing that well is actually a lot, RFID and metal don't play well together and we have to build our own antennas specifically for this use case.

2) RE Derek's video, yea he had an initial poor first experience, we ship both a classic and alpha size ring, the alphas sweet spot is larger which makes it more useful for when you can't see the phones sweet spot. After conversations with Derek (read the comments) he does mention he didn't spend any time with the ring before doing a demo and we do encourage people to get used to using the ring. It takes a few days but this is new technology so there is an inherent learning curve..

Overall I'm really proud of what we made with the NFC Ring, it's been a lot of work and we have been completely open about everything and shared everything from day one. We're shipping another 1,000 rings tomorrow and I'm really excited to see what folks hack together. Our job now is to support anyone who wants to build something with their ring, whatever that may be..

If you do wanna engage with the NFC Ring community perhaps nudge some of the community members to jump over here and share their thoughts :)

We're still a small community but our goals are big ;) Why would you want to keep those pesky unsecure keys that scratch your phone?! That's really what we're at war with..

Thanks again guys, every bit of support really helps and even if we're not the company that provides your NFC Ring I hope we were the ones to at least kickstart things in the right direction with sharing and open-source at the core.

I installed the toolkit to do an ADB backup of Samsung Galaxy S4 M919 with Android 4.2.2 (already rooted)

PC system in Win7/32

After installing the Samsung USB drivers, and plugging in the USB cable, I can see that the ADB drivers are loaded. In Device Manager, The "SAMSUNG Android ADB Interface" is shown under Android Phone. Running "adb device" from the command line shows that the SGS4 is recognized.

However, the prompt about pairing with the PC never occurs. I thought maybe I had done it before, so I didn't worry about it since ADB was working. I selected ADB Backup in the toolkit using the -all -apk -system -noshared options.

The Full Backup function appeared on the phone, and I selected "Back Up My Data". The phone had not rebooted - the backup app is on top of the regular phone function and the status bar is still showing at the top. I did not enter a password.

Below the password field various apps are displayed one by one.

However the progress is unbelievably slow. After 30 minutes, only at 200 MB file is present in the backup folder. It hasn't increased in size for over 10 minutes.

This is the first time I've tried an ADB backup with the SGS4, but my previous phone would back up several Gbytes in about 15 minutes.

Is this process just very slow on the SGS4, or is something wrong?

HI Mark,

I just want to say THANK YOU for all of your toolkits!

I bought the OG N7 AND N7 2013 versions, and I (finally) have a SGS4 on the way and will be buying this toolkit as well when my i9500 arrives.

You have saved me a ton of time of trouble, and I plan on following your work down the road as well.

Thank you for making these available to us, and please keep up the great work... :highfive:

How can I enable fast/quick charge ability on Nexus 5. I notice that with the OEM cable I get fast charge on my wall outlet but if I plug in any other cable it doesn't charge at more than 500mA. Is there anyway I can make it fast charge with any cable or is there a cable that I can use that is longer than the OEM one that will put the phone in fast charge? I use CurrentBattery widget to determine the current.

Get yourself a short USB extender wire, male at one end, female at the other.

Cut the wire in half.

Connect the red and black wires up as they were before (or don't cut them in step 1).

On the Female side of the wire connect the green and white wires together.

On the Male side of the wire simply leave the green and white wires connected to nothing.

Insulate the ends of all of the wires with insulating tape.

Tie a knot in the wire so if the wire is pulled the knot is pulled and not the connection you made, it doesn't look pretty but the wire will last a lifetime this way.

[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] shook187:
I had this device for only 2 weeks so I'm a bit confused as to which version I should have. By doing a little research I'm guessing .290 is the old version and .136 is the new version.

But why does my phone say I'm running 290 but yet I'm on the the latest 4.3 (^_-) also I noticed on the display options screen I don't have white balance should I have that?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] blueether:
white balance came in in .136 and is slightly newer than the .290 build - but it introduced a few bugs, so you may not want to upgrade anyway.

When you get the update depends on your carries/location/[randomness] etc so some people seem to have to wait for ages for the updates, if you really want it you could look into flashing FTFs
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] shook187:
So is 290 also 4.3? I have a locked bootloader so without unlocking am I still able to flash ftf's?

I can connect to a wifi network, but I can't actually access the internet. This happens on every wifi network I've tried. Data works fine, and wifi will connect to any network, but I can't go anywhere.

Any ideas?
