Any progress on making the app work when screen is off/locked so the NFC tags can do their awesome thing?
[Android Apps and Games] wakdev:
No sorry, by default, Android disable NFC when your device is locked or when your screen is OFF. It's a security feature, I guess.

But there is a Xposed module for this : http://repo.xposed.info/module/pk.qwerty12.nfclockscreenoffenabler

NFC Tag emulation

Good news everyone!

I updated NFC Tools and I added a cool beta feature in the PRO version : NFC tag emulation.

Go to the "write" tab, add a record, and emulate an NFC tag.

[IMG="NFC tag emulation"]http://www.wakdev.com/contents/apps/nfctools/preview/nfctools.preview.4.15.png[/IMG]

It works with most devices, but some of them don't work together,

I don't know why but I think it's a hardware problem.

This is a beta, so please be indulgent ^^

Also, feel free to send me your feedback about this new feature.

I created this Google Form if you want to send me your tests.

I try to list the devices which have problems or not.

http://goo.gl/forms/QetokVxDa5J82T4n2

Thanks to all of you and see you soon for the next update :)

Release notes :

New record: Search

New beta feature: Emulate an NFC tag (pro only)

New task: Battery saver (root only)

Added 6 new variables

New conditional blocks: Battery saver, Battery temperature, NFC, NFC Beam, Music

Interface improvements

Translations fixes
[Android Apps and Games] DadOudidOuda:
NFC emulation is a great addition to your app, kudos, I think you're the first to add this feature.

I have a Nexus 5 and so far it's been working on and off. I know it's frown upon to ask about ETAs but I just wanted to know if you're making any progress with the functionality because it's way better than NFC Beam in the aspect of sending the same thing over and over (contact info for example) to different devices. I know you can just use an NFC tag but I'm always losing those.

New how-to video

Hi everyone !

I created a new video for explain how to protect your NFC tag with NFC Tools.

[YOUTUBE]rDgQgOpm8g8[/YOUTUBE]

After write an URL for example, your NFC tag can be left intentionally in a place easy to reach for everyone.

So, to avoid other people changing its content, you should lock your NFC tag to prevents any unwanted rewriting.

For this, you can lock your NFC tag but this operation can't be undone and your tag will be not writable thereafter.

The second option, is for tags like NTAG213, 216, and other compatible NFC tags : Password protection.

This is useful because it avoids a definitive lock of your NFC tag and prevents writing if the password hasn't been removed before.

Rather practical, right?

Important notice about NFC on Android 7.1

Bad news everyone...

Google screwed up the Android 7.1 update. An NFC-related bug blocks you when you want to use an unformatted (factory data) NFC chip.

For example, you've ordered new NFC tags, then it's impossible to write on it... that sucks.

This week, I've worked on a quick workaround for Android 7.1 users.

An update of NFC Tools has been published, with those following version numbers : 4.21.2 for NFC Tools and 3.21.2 for NFC Tools - Pro Edition

When you try to write something on your NFC chip and you get the the message "You have to format your NFC chip!", go to "other" tab then select "Format memory".

The workaround for Android 7.1 will fix the data and force Android to recognize correctly your NFC chip.

[IMG="NFC Tools"]http://www.wakdev.com/contents/apps/nfctools/preview/ndef_fix.png[/IMG]

The fix works for this following chips :

Ultralight

Ultralight C

NTAG203

NTAG210

NTAG212

NTAG213

NTAG215

NTAG216

Topaz 512

I've already contacted Google about this problem, and a bug report is opened here :

https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=227165

But it seems like Google don't consider this issue as important...

If you see the problem on your device, I suggest to add a star on the bug report (top left of the web page).

Developers who have the same problem can also post a comment on the bug report.

This is a huge problem and I hope Google will reconsider the priority...

Also, feel free to send me additional feedbacks if the fix doesn't work on your device / NFC chips.
[Android Apps and Games] ih8un:
Sorry if this isn't app related. But after I write my nfc tag and launch it, it executes the task I wrote but also opens the most recent app I've used. For example, I assigsd a task to set an alarm, when I scan my tag it sets the alarm correctly but also opens the most recent app I have used

Good news everyone ! But mainly for NFC developers ;)

I just updated NFC Tools and add a new feature for send commands to your NFC chips.

[Android Apps and Games] nikexv2:
hello,

i would like to read the data of a tag to use the emulation feature, but i can not, i always get an read error, i think this is because the acess keys are not classic ones.

i know the a and b keys but i dont know were i can save them in you app.

I can read the tag with the mifare classic tool and my keys, but not in you app.
[Android Apps and Games] wakdev:
Hi there,

I'm sorry but it's not possible to emulate Mifare Classic because HCE in Android can only emulate ISO 14443-4 chips (Mifare Classic = ISO 14443-3).

Maybe with the new versions of Android and hardware components (the secure element), it's possible, but I don't know.

In NFC Tools, you can only emulate NDEF records, based on the current list in "write" tab.

Have a good day.
[Android Apps and Games] nikexv2:
thank you for the fast answer !

i have one last question, you can send advanced commands to nfc cards, but can you send special commands like unlock block 0 of mifare classic cards (card with backdoor) ? this command is on 7 bits so i dont know if it would work ?
[Android Apps and Games] wakdev:
That's a good question, I never tested ;)
[Android Apps and Games] wakdev:

I'm trying to create a task to send an intent to tell Strava to begin recording, but I'm stuck.

The parameters for the intent are:

(source: https://groups.google.com/d/msg/strava-api/Uywi_830YWE/cwivo6arkAIJ)

Action and Target are OK. Problem is, I don't know what to do with the Data URL.

It's not a Category, Flag, Package nor Class. Trying to use it as such results in "Error: incorrect Intent!" when scanning the tag.

Putting it as Extra has no effect.

Any clues?
[Android Apps and Games] Nephiel:
Looking for more info, I've found some Android code examples that use

intent.setData(uri)

to configure the uri of an intent. However, it appears that NFC Tools can only use

intent.putExtra(...)

Without setData, the Send Intent feature is not as useful. Any chance it will be supported in a future update?
