Helping hand. NFC pictures not sending? - AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II

Found out today that you can't send nfc photos if you phone has modified title. Nothing crazy but just info. You'll have to use the no trip way to flash and modify your device if this is something you want to do.

I don't think the status showing modified has anything to do with that. My status shows modified, but I can send photos and stuff through NFC with no issues at all. Maybe something got messed up when you rooted?

Hmmm. Well I couldn't send from my phone or my s3 with modified tag.. but my friend on stock rom could send.... I wonder what's wrong

I was able to send via NFC...Sbeam with a modified status. Look for a thread I started in q&a "NFC contact broke?" Maybe your phone has the same problem?

Sending things via NFC to other S3s??

So a friend and I both have this phone. Both rooted. He added a JB rom and I am on the stock Touchwiz rom. We have been trying to send stuff and only thing that goes is a contact. If I open Quickpic and select a photo to send to him, it takes him to the Play Store where it wants him to install Quickpic. If I try to send a song it appears to be uploading on my phone and does nothing on his. He tries to send a photo or .mp3 to me and he gets an error that my device does not support large file transfer via NFC or something.
I did a search on Google and saw where it says photos and songs are able to be sent until JB. If that's the case, how is Samsung advertising this feature and it doesn't work on what's currently available.
If I am doing something wrong...please advise.
Probably because the Samsung software isn't on the JB rom your friend installed (sbeam).

Well, I was able to bump him a contact, so wouldn't that say it is?

Nah. The s3 only wants to send files with Sbeam. Don't ask me why I'm not an expert, maybe someone has a work around but I wasn't about to send files between my S3 and nexus via nfc

copy and paste bug

Hey is there any update on the copy and paste locking up the phone and the test service crashing being fixed for good yet?
I didn't even know there was a bug like this. Care to elaborate? Rooted? Rom? What/When/how does it happen?
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
There are multiple threads with solutions here.. Copy and paste your thread title into the search box and voila.
Yeah I know there is but no recent posts on any so I was just wondering if there was any update on this. I'm un rooted stock rom. It happens when I try to copy and paste anything.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium
Guess I somehow missed where it was reported in the past....or just don't remember.
Not sure why it would happen, but it seems its not a commin issue. Its never happened to me.
Have you updated to either UVALH2 or UVALJ4? If updating doesn't fix it I would suggest using Odin to flash the firmware again.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
As I said I am not rooted. Just do a google search and you will see it was a common issue after the latest update.

When I say not a common problem I just mean that the majority of people don't seem to have it. I have no reason to doubt that there are others, was just saying I don't recall hearing of it. Sorry if it came out wrong.
You don't need to be rooted to flash with Odin, which is why I suggested it. Plus if its a problem that didn't occur untill the last update it leads me to think something didn't patch quite right, in which case Odin would probably be the only way to fix it.

Just shows how much "control" they have over our devices!
I could see ADM being a big deal for Nexus owners or people who own phones that the manufacturer doesn't provide a wipe/tracking feature for. Samsung's Find My Mobile (ex-Dive) has been around for two years and has more features than Google's ADM. Does anyone see any features or benefits ADM provides over Find My Mobile?

if we track phone using samsung dive or use any feature like fetching call records, phone gets notification about task done, where as using ADM... no notification comes...

And notification's a bad thing? What if someone hacks your Google account and is tracking you via ADM or maliciously sends a wipe command to your phone? Without any notification you'd have no idea. The first thing I'd do on FMM if I truly lost my phone is remote lock it, even before tracking it. The lock command you send to the device allows you to have a 100 character message appear on the lock screen along with a number to call about returning the phone. Which by the way isn't something you can even do (yet) with ADM. Once it's locked the person who finds it (or stole it) can't do anything with it including turning off its wireless signal(s) or reading notifications. And if the phone's in your possession and you track it, ring it or pull a call log who cares that there's a notification? I kind of see your point though in that if the phone's been intentionally stolen the thief could see the FMM tracking notice in the notification bar (there's no audible alert) if the phone wasn't locked first. But a thief that knows Android would immediately hard reset the phone (or disable Wi-Fi and mobile data) right after stealing it which renders both ADM and FMM useless anyway.
It's useless if ur phone is stolen. But very useful if u forgot where u placed your phone. Getting it to ring enables me to find My phone much easier instead of calling myself
Sent from my GT-N7100 using Tapatalk 4
All of this is useless because it is enough for someone that steals/finds your phone to take out the SIM card and no way any software can tell you where it is... so it is very limited help.
Will this require the internet to be turned on my phone?
Sent from my GT-N7100 using Tapatalk 4
Yup. It basically connects to your samsung account which your phone is logged on to. A hard reset will remove your samsung account login details so this is really useless if stolen.
Sent from my GT-N7100 using Tapatalk 4
What about hardreset? Will ADM survive from a hardreset?
Don't expect too much since it's an added free feature. I'm personally using Cerberus which have full of features and I don't compare the two side by side. Maybe you don't need it now but this small new feature will be of help when you really need it.

T-Mobile knows more than you think...

Got a notification today telling me my device health was good, and I had to check performance and this popped up:
I rooted 2 days ago and stayed stock. Anyone know how they know this?

When your phone is rooted, it knows, and so do the apps. That's why you cannot install isis wallet if your phone is rooted. In the about section in settings, it says if the device is rooted. If it says modified then it is rooted and any app can probably see that. Doesn't mean that tmobile knows it is, but the app does, and it may, or may not report this back to them.

Re: Update
T-mobile only recently updated the "my Account" app. Giving them selfs access to all kinds of stuff on your phone. This also detects the tethering mod :/
Best thing to do is uninstall the update...
Very crappy thing of them to do, But I guess they have to be like the nsa.
That's because you guys have the option to collect diagnostics enabled.. Mine is disabled and it shows unknown for everything

Actually, you granted them access by accepting the permissions. Thats why i read that stuff. And being a developer, i can usually figure out what actions fall under the required permissions too.

They went commercial, now are a official corporation. They are looking to make that money, eventually. With features like a CM account, privacy guard, secure messaging they were getting ready for it. None of those are attractive though.

it seems more likely the purchase fees will be for the added features. Allcast is the perfect example. It's a CM app on the app store that has a time limit unless you pay money. That's their future. I can easily imagine a CM rom that is basically AOSP, and a collection of appstore apps that you have to pay money for to get the "Full CM experience". Of course, if you buy a CM phone (like the oppo n1), you'd get all those for free.
Or they just collect your data and sell it on their own kinda like Google
