I love NFC and was hoping to use it a lot with the chips I bought. However unlocking the phone first is really stupid. Is there some way to enable NFC to work at the lock screen? So that the NFC unlocks it or something? It is kinda useless to me now. BTW I have root, but no recovery. I don't want recovery because of the triangle stuff.
why u dont just enable the NFC all the time? i dont think with NFC enable/disable the battery drain is noticable

I think you understood me wrong. NFC doesn't work when the screen is off/locked. That sucks, because I want to use it when coming home/leaving home and I really don't see the point in using this if I have to unlock it first.
Yeah,
Even the manual says it only works when the screen is unlocked.

Yeah but that is a flashable zip. As I said I don't have and want recovery.
you are sure that a file for s3 (different firmware as note 2) will work?

I'm not trying. Also I just hope there is some way without recovery.
I really hope there will be an "official" way at some point.
If anyone is making a mod for this, maybe we can bypass the security concerns if there was a pop-up that requires you to approve the tag first, and be pre-approved for known tags. This way security is not compromised, and we also get the added convenience as well.

You can just extract the zip using something like rom toolbox, and then copy the files to there respective place manually, that way you don't need recovery.

Seconded, would love this for my note ii
I'm using this method which is for Note 2: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1999569
Works fine. Have set up a few tags and using it with Secure Settings, NFC Task Launcher and Tasker to do a number of things without having to wake the phone up or unlock first.
The only issue is that if you put your wallet in the same pocket as your phone, it will beep when it scans the the NFC chips in the credit cards
The method replaces the NFC service file in the system directory so at the very least you need root access.

Thanks for the link, looks promising. Now i just need to figure out how to install it without using clockworkmod...
Edit: Kindly, today, dr.ketan told us how to do it http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=36824840&postcount=1
All works for me, woohoo but whenever you use the browser or chrome, it crashes the nfc service
I'm experiencing that problem as well now. Also on launching YouTube service. It's annoying and makes it more inconvenient than having nfc screen off. There is another method through XposedFramework which is non destructive on the stock NFC.apk file. Might be worth a look?
www.villainrom.co.uk/forum/microdownloads/nfc-lockscreenoff-enabler.9/viewfile
But before that, I tried to restore my NFC to a non crashing version after doing the CWM method. I couldn't get my stock NFC.apk back, even with TitaniunBackup. Had to do a selective /system restore.

I take no credit on this Fix. I just happened to find it and was astounded in the change in performance and thought I would share it here. After applying Mitch0115 Fix I was getting 11/11 sat indoors with 5 M accuracy. YMMV
Original thread is hear http://rootzwiki.com/topic/21453-optimal-gps-settings-for-galaxy-nexus-cdma/
Not this is different than the AGPS patch already posted here on XDA. I had tried that one and did not get anywhere near as good of results.
Please give Thanks to Mitch0115 and also let's hear your results.
My Results this morning indoors:
EDIT: This FIX is mainly for US users. However it may work for you. Some users have reported it working in other areas. YMMV Not sure if the file can be edited to use other country servers or not.
Flashed, and seems it work.

you should write that this is meant for .US folks only, since it's us servers in the .conf file.
it's NOT for people in germany, like myself, for example.
for non-us region, the file needs to be edited a bit i guess.

I'm going to risk posting in the wrong forum in the hopes of getting some more attention on this app...MyScript Notes Mobile. I followed the instructions in this thread and am totally blown away by how functional it makes the Note II. This does require root and a custom recovery.

This app vindicates every hope I had for the S Pen. I can scribble a quick note and export the text straight into GTasks, or a host of other apps. I can write page after page and then convert just the parts I want straight into text by circling it. The management of notebooks and pages is simple and intuitive. I liked S Notes OK, but this is in another class.

Follow the link to the video. The handwriting conversion can be real-time without writing in another area of the screen, or it can be converted later. I know it seems a small thing, but it is not.

Here's a Note2 safe version of the app to flash. The only difference is that the script is modified and rewritten to accommodate the file system of the Note2 as opposed to the Xoom, which it was originally written for. Basically, this version is tested and set up for the Note2 specifically.
I need a few of you guys to test it out before I post a thread for it. This app works 100% for me.
Removed download. Visit this thread to play with the work in progress.
Many thanks! Downloaded and flashing now. Comments to follow.

Installed fine, but the wheel that you use to convert text is missing. Actually, it is there, I just cannot see it. Also, the first couple of characters are a very heavy pen weight, but then it gets real thin.
Just backed up all apps with TiBu and planning on a factory reset to try again.

It's the same thing in the Xoom version. The only difference here is the script isn't formatting your caches to yaffs.
Factory reset did the trick. The wheel is back. The pen weights are still goofy, but it works just fine. I'll keep you posted, but it is sure nice to have the text wheel back.

Its working on the S3 and so much more convenient. I found a mod for the Note II but it does not work screen off only at the lock screen.
the NFC.apk is attached.
I'm just getting started with NFC tags, and i agree that this would be REALLY useful. Anyone have the know-how to make this happen?
it is so insanely inconvenient to have to turn the stinking phone on to use tags that I am at the point where if I found instructions I might try and make a go of making the changes myself

True, but when rooted, you still have control of what apps you install. This mod would expose you to random strangers trying to steal your data.
Rooting is like looking a hole in your firewall and putting a gate up. This is like telling the firewall altogether.
But hey to each their own
swyped all these spelling errors from my galaxy note 2
the only relevant security for NFC is that you have to be within 1 INCH (maybe 1.5" if you REALLY line it up right)
if your close enough to be a threat to my security with NFC your also close enough for me to be a very relevant and serious threat to your physical safety as I "investigate" why your lining a phone up within 1 inch of my phone in my pocket.
SO security? non issue. period.
and anyway in the future it should not be hard for dev's to enable whitelisting so only "certain things" can be done without user interaction.
this was an issue with cards before the feature even came to the phones... you never had to turn on your nfc debit card, why don't THEY have security issues?
Sent from my SPH-L900 using xda app-developers app
because THE RANGE IS ONE INCH
if your close enough to scan it that by definition means you have physical possession of it which means security is irrelevant.
this is not like bluetooth that you can pump up the power and fine tune a receiver and do it from 30ft away. or even 10ft.
1 inch. less distance than the length of your pinky finger.
again if they are that close there are OTHER issues at play folks hehehe

Ok my question is this.
Deep inside my apps manager there is a phone ICON and no phone icon on the tablet anywhere else and no where to access this green icon.
How do I get the Icon from the manager and onto the phone somewhere ?
Its not in any of the trays or apps page etc. Its no where to be found but it exists deep in the apps manager. I dont want to use Voice and all the other BUL$&%T voice over IP junk apps.
I want the green phone Icon that is hidden deep in the device accessed some how
Again
It doesnt let me hard press and move the icon from the manager and its NOT anywhere else on the device.
If you have a real answer that I havent covered above then help me out !!!!
You must be rooted first and if you want to delete it use no bloat free and if you want to move it use root explorer and system apps are under /system/app or you just go to app manager and turn off anything you want but beware what are you doing

Sprint doesn't enable phone calls on the tablets. The closest to tablet Sprint provides with phone functions is the Galaxy Mega.
Until recently you could use Google Voice and a number of other products for data-based voice services, but Google is disabling that in May 2014.

The carriers can also enable and disable voice capabilities by line. This issue has been raised with data-network enabled tablets in the past. If the line isn't voice-enabled, no APK is going to change that.
But as always, YMMV.
Round and round nobody really has an answer just where we started before wasting time on this blog....
Has anyone ever found a solution to get this working? I have an sim-t217t that is unlocked, using a voice enabled sim on t-mobile and everything works fine except the phone app isn’t showing on the home screen and can’t get it to show and have tried several dialer apps that don’t work either.
I understand Samsung disabled the phone function on the US based tablets, but I’m sure by now someone has figured out a way around it?
I searched all over and cant find an answer. I tried adding "qemu.hw.mainkeys+1" to build prop but got nothing. I want to utilize the full screen and I am used to gestures from my blackberry q10 so I thought this would be perfect. Thanks!
I am assuming you are already rooted. You can install the GMD Auto Hide Soft Keys app. Works nicely, but you have to buy the pro version to unlock dinner of the features.

Try looking for qemu.hw.mainkeys=0 in your build.prop file

You mean it should already be in their? I couldn't find it. I tried adding that to the end of the list but it didnt do anything after rebooting.
I added it to my build prop and it worked. I'm using lmt. It won't start up by itself though, or I haven't figured out how yet. Also make sure your keyboard didn't auto correct the words.

Would being s-on have anything to do with it not saving? I am rooted and everything but havent got around to getting soff. I add "qemu.hw.mainkeys=0" and reboot and nothing happens.
it seems like adaway doesn't save after a reboot either so I assume this has something do with s-on. I wasn't going to soff until cyanogenmod or something was available. So if anyone reads this, is that the issue?
its not saving because of system write protection, not s-off. If you have root already, there is a module the Original Android Development section that you can push to phone and setup script to disable the protection, allowing those apps to save after a reboot.

Thanks for the input. I guess I need to wait for a rom or something to come out for sprint because it seems for the buttons to dissapear, the phone needs to be rebooted which then reenables the write protection.

Do you have a stock nand backup you could send? I can definitely make a ROM for ya, just no one in my team has a sprint m8..

Nand backup as in from TWRP? I just found ViperOne ROM and flashed it and didn't make a backup.
If only I checked the thread sooner. I still can't get the write protection working and its annoying the heck out of me! I want pie!
Are you putting a 1 or a 0? I believe ¹ is what hides the navbar. There aren't any modules you could flash to disable write protection? Idk if the ones in the m8 section are usable on sprint m8 or not though
