Hello,I heard great things about nfc tags like put one on door entrance so when you get home,scan phone and it turns on Wi-Fi, increases ringer or whatever your home profile may be. How do I do this? I see tags on eBay....getting my nexus but how easy is it to set up so I can have a sticker at home or car etc..

Just got my tags today, got them from tagsfordroid.com. You need to be running Android 4.0.3 to be able to write them.
The tags i got are small discs, like 3 cm diameter, all white with a green android. They are rewritable and i can write to them stuff like text, a URL, a contact card, send an SMS or make a call. With NFC Tasker, i can add actions like turn wifi on, connect to a wifi network, etc.. pretty flexible. You just write the tag and then you can read it back, its basic.
NFC sounds amazing, I have just ordered 10 Stickers. Will test the functionality when they will arrive and maybe when I'm successful, write a small howto.

Please! x 10
got my tags from tagage.net.
they have a nice starter pack which includes different form factors/sticker types and different memory sizes.
(ask them to NDEF format them for you as this might not be possible with ics < 4.0.3)
the nfc functionality works pretty good as far as I've played around with my tags. reading a tag is more or less instantaneous and if an app is associated with the data type you've put on the tag, this app is launched and the corresponding action, e.g. opening an url, is executed without hardly any waiting time.
for personal use the app NFC Task Launcher is the way to go as you don't want to scan url/sms/text/vCards all the time. With this app you can automate your daily routine, e.g. turning wifi on when you arrive home.
NXP has two apps in the market that are really helpful. NFC TagInfo by NXP is for getting information about a tag (pretty technical) and NFC TagWriter by NXP is (as the name suggests) for writing tags (contact/url/plain text/sms).
If you have any questions regarding nfc feel free to ask. maybe I will write down my personal experience some time in the future.
A lot of good information here. Where to buy tags, how to get the formatted properly, etc.

Awesome...sounds great, but why do I need 4.03?
This wont work on 4.01??
I might as well wait, not sure how long before my new nexus updates, i think next update is 4.02
nevermind...read up on why , 4.03 allows formatting.

You can order the tags preformatted as NDEF. Buynfctags will format them for $0.05/pc. I got 5 sticky tokens formatted and shipped for less than $10.00.
I bought 14 tags from tagstand.com. They have a wide variety of tags (as small as 25mm I believe), as well as "outdoor" styled tags. Their prices are competitive ($1.00 USD/ea), and they have an option to pre-format the tags for you.
I should receive the tags in a week, and I'll post back if they work well.

I created a new user account for their shop. three minutes later I got an email stating that I should have a look at some page where the problems around unformated tags and the galaxy nexus are explained. and they format them for free if you ask them to do so.
i'm living in hamburg, germany, they are from finland. ordered on the 4th of january, got them on the 9th. (I ordered the starter pack)
so from my point of view I would totally recommend them.
Thanks.
I will look into that

There seem to be loads of types because there are loads of NFC types
The kind you want, though, is a MIFARE 13.56MHz, rewritable (important), lockable (also important so someone can't hijack it), and has 1K or 4K of memory depending on what you want to do with it.
I've bought tags from tagsfordroid.com before, and while they're not the absolute cheapest, they're cheap enough when you don't need bulk. I got the Androidified versions with keychain, but there's also plain white stickers if you wanted to print on it and stick it in a public place.

These tags you suggested hold 768 bytes. Question I have is how many tasks can one of these tags hold? I mainly would use these for turning on/off bluetooth, wifi, GPS, changing ringer volume and vibration, and launching a couple of apps. Think it could hold enough info to do all that at once? How about enough to hold vCard information and launch a website for my fathers business?
I bought some from here: http://tagsfordroid.com/tags/Home.html
If you search, much info can be found.
The two sites I have looked at personally are tagstand.com and buynfctags.com.
Both of those sites have tags for about 1 dollar each.
A good link to take a look at is "here"
This shows most of the usual types.
SUMMARY:
1k tags are the largest, and can hold the most data. Usually larger and thicker than the other chips.
NTAG203 tags are the best for typical use, can hold a moderate amount of data, and are the most current and fastest.
Don't get ultralight C if you can get the NTAG203 tags.
The normal ultralight tags (no C) are the smallest, and thinest, obviously, stated in the title. Very small memory, good for small tasks, such as wifi toggle, etc. Not always space for many tasks.
Personally, I will be purchasing mostly NTAG203, and a few ultralight.
They're usually rewritable, so you don't need too many. 1K is helpful if you're trying to get it to perform multiple tasks.
Or if you have some nfc enabled gear around ( i have some skiing tickets from dolomiti superski) and they are write protected you can still use them. i've been using them with the help of an app called NFC retag. if the app can read it (ive found it to work with most things, even my library card and my ramp exit card) you can assign actions to it. it may be a bit limited but you can't beat free . also use the nfc mod by mayhemer to enable nfc while screen is off

The problem with the small MIFARE ones is that they're 46B free. That works for URLs if you shorten them and for something like a Foursquare check-in or toggling your phone's sensors or sound, but doesn't work so well for messages or more data intensive things. They also don't work unless the back is non-conductive and don't react to sun or heat well.
I bought a 50-pack of the 4k ones from a supplier in Shenzen (they're called NtaG, can't find them online on a quick Google check, maybe someone else has better luck) for $20 when I was there. My house looks like someone ran amok with a stickerbook.

still waiting for them, most I found in UK are like 10 pounds for 5 so I decided to wait a bit for these, twice as cheap will post results, when I get them
After reading up on specifications for the different kind of tags i ended up buying 10pcs mifare 1k s50 tags. A friend of mine got his a while a go and they are so thin they arent even noticable under a layer of paint. Readability seems slightly worse though but it definately works.
Hope im not missing out on anything by not going for any of the alternatives. Hope to see some more reviews on the different brands and types soon.

I spotted this and thought they were some good common uses for these tags.

And I haven't read too much into this but it could be useful for the screen off use of these tags.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1709586
As much as profiles and Tasker(awesome app) work, the tags provide a one step solution for those things Tasker cant do. I have yet to try them myself, but when they arrive in the mail, I will certainly be putting them to the test for various things I do everyday.
I seem to have problems with NFC. The parking meters in SF and Oakland are supposedly NFC enabled so that if you tap your phone against the meter it starts the payment app for you but when I put my phone to it nothing happens.
I'm not sure where to buy the tags from. Does anyone know a good place to get a couple of them for cheap? With enough "bytes" on them to do all these toggles and assignments?
I've found this so far:
http://www.amazon.com/NFC-Tag-Basic-Package-Tags/dp/B006AVFA80/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_top
http://www.amazon.com/PREFORMATTED-Mifare-Ultralight-NFC-Tags/dp/B006RJTXZQ/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_top
Both same brand, different option/size. The first link comes with 5x C NFC stickers with 192 bytes and 5x Mifare 1K stickers that hold 1,000 bytes for about $22 with regular shipping
The second link comes with 10x Pre-Formatted NXP Mifare Ultralight C Stickers with 192 bytes. Sounds like they are the same as the first x5 pieces you get in the first link but I also see that in this link they come with a writer protection option (you can lock whatever you write on them). I didn't read that in the first link tho. about $21
Anyway my question is how many bytes are recommended for assignments, tasks and other stuff like that. I don't want to be limited. What is the difference between the tags I posted up there. Both have reviews form people with the s3 saying they work flawlessly.

They are overpriced with terrible feedback.
Just got my Xperia NFC tags looking to set it up to launch application but the tags only have 46bytes memory and the memory it takes to launch an App is at least 60bytes so the most you can do with these things is store a few URLs.
So I'm have to go on eBay again to find some no-name 1kb tags to do the job.
These work awesome for me usIng NFC Task Launcher. http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B006TGVPL2/ref=mp_s_a_5?pi=SL75&qid=1348853544&sr=8-5

I found packages that have several colors, but not all one color.
I could probably just use a black marker on them but that would look, dorky.
As far as I know those xperia tags are only made to trigger a procedure saved on the xperia phone and nothing more.
You can try samsung tectiles but they are only available in the us, so is the official app over playstore. (5 pcs about 15$)

Hi,
You could take a look at AutomateIt (Pro). It has the possibility to trigger a list of tasks, like launching apps, when scanning an NFC tag.
As far as I know, the NFC Tag can even be formatted, AutomateIt only needs the tag ID, so size shouldn't be an issue here.
Bye,
Lutz
I've bought bulk NFC tags from www.tagstand.com and www.tagsfordroid.com
Both have worked without any issues using Tasker or NFC Task Launcher and they're pretty cheap. Haven't seen any all black NFC tags (Besides the Xperia ones) but you could ask them about it. I know tagstand does do custom type tags but you need to email them.

Where did you get them? I can only find the ones that claim to be original..
All tags that are not locked write protected and can be reprogrammed regardless of size, even those from xperia, sometime one app is unable to perform certain functions, whiles other can.
I had these NFC tags which I got from china shenzhen metro for USD 0.32 each, yes these tags are used to travel on the metro link, just like buying a ticket, but can be used for NFC functions, but only have 24kb usable space, can only be used enough for a few url, toggle BT, wifi or simple functions.
With certain app, it will not allow me to format and reuse them, including the NFC task launcher, other app will work and once formatted, it will work with most apps including NFC task launcher.
hope this helps.

For all I know it is fake, but it doesn't matter because it holds the same memory as original and the point I'm making is they completely useless for doing much of anything, and I bought it from eBay.
Mifare 1k NFC Tags from Ebay
Ebay is where I got Mifare 1k NFC Tags: www ebay.com/itm/150885916919
It ships from China, and takes about 2-3 weeks to ship it to US.
I have used both NFC Task Launcher and AnyTag and works flawlessly.
I am a bit surprised by the original post in this thread.
I took delivery of an Xperia T 2 weeks ago and bought a set of 4 Xperia Smart Tags last week.
When I get in the car the tag turns on my bluetooth and starts up sygic navigation.
And this is not using any third party software just the smart connect that was on the phone when I got it.
So the tags are certainly big enough to launch an app if used on the phones they were intended for.
This sounds like a limitation of the S3 not the tags
Hey everyone, So I want to get an NFC chip implanted into my hand, don't ask why, ill think of a reason later.
For now I just want somebody more knowledgeable than I to tell me if this tag I am looking at [xM1 [Mifare S50 2x12mm Glass Tag]] Would be compatible with the broadcom NFC chip in my Galaxy S4 I9505?
It says on the page, " 13.56MHz ISO/IEC 14443-A Mifare S50 1K RFID chipset "
I believe there is a rule I cannot post links to pages with products for sale ?
Its from a site called dangerous things, as that's the first I found selling implantable chips..
Share with me your information please And thank you in advance!
And while im at it, Im trying to think of some cool uses for it, Is it possible to write to it something that lets me use it to pay for things ?
I have heard of people that do this..
As far as i know the broadcom nfc chip does not support the mifare protocol. You may be able to write NDEF data to it but i don't think you will be able to use the original mifare protocol.
Also i suggest you look into chips who can run you custom code like javacard

We will have an NTAG203 based option coming to Dangerous Things soon... perhaps via a kickstarter. The NTAG203 is a NFC Type 2 compliant tag, meaning it will work with any certified NFC device or mobile phone.

I've had it in for probably about a month, I got it a day before we started our trip to burning man, and even out there with so little time to heal it was fine.
I love NFC and have been writing all kinds if crazy apps that utilize it, so the tag gets a ton of use. I'm planning on getting an NFC door lock and building and NFC auto start for my car. There are soany awesome things you can do with NFC, and having a secure one on you at all times is pretty awesome.

Damn. XDA cut a ton of my reply out.
So, first off, ignore the "implications" guy. I cant tell you how many times ive heard its the mark of the beast, or that its a tracking device, or that its a dna harvester, etc etc. Cant beat crazy.
Anyways, I am an app developer, look up my name on the market. I LOVE NFC, most of my newer apps use NFC in some way. I have an app called NFCSecure that locks your device unless you have the nfc tag you setup as a key. thats a pretty big one.
Also tag a hue. turns tags into light switches for hue lights. i can lay in bed, scan my tag and if my light is off, it goes on and vice versa.
My ltest app is nfcvault. uses the tag as an encryption key for passwords, pins, etc.

So, first off, ignore the "implications" guy. I cant tell you how many times ive heard its the mark of the beast, or that its a tracking device, or that its a dna harvester, etc etc. Cant beat crazy.
Anyways, I am an app developer, look up my name on the market. I LOVE NFC, most of my newer apps use NFC in some way. I have an app called NFCSecure that locks your device unless you have the nfc tag you setup as a key. thats a pretty big one.
Also tag a hue. turns tags into light switches for hue lights. i can lay in bed, scan my tag and if my light is off, it goes on and vice versa.
My ltest app is nfcvault. uses the tag as an encryption key for passwords, pins, etc.

haha yeah, I just wanted to hear what they had to say, xD Dont you find the stories funny ?
Oooh nice, Ill have a look see through some of your apps. They look pretty cool!
You should make one that encrypts data like images or videos or documents that requires an NFC tag to decrypt! /wouldBuy 10/10

I've got an implant from dangerousthings. The guy who runs it is very intelligent, very well connected to all the right people, tech, body mod, health, etc.
I've had it in for probably about a month, I got it a day before we started our trip to burning man, and even out there with so little time to heal it was fine.
I love NFC and have been writing all kinds if crazy apps that utilize it, so the tag gets a ton of use. I'm planning on getting an NFC door lock and building and NFC auto start for my car. There are soany awesome things you can do with NFC, and having a secure one on you at all times is pretty awesome.
I also have a magnet in theother hand. h
