Hi, i've recently purchased my beloved Xperia S with stock 4.0.4, and i can't turn on the NFC... For whatever reason there isn't a button to turn it on... is there any other way to turn NFC on??? I know it's a pretty weird question...

That's the problem, it isn't there
Have you tried using the widget to turn it on if its missing? Add the Tools Widget and then there should be the NFC option.
It isn't there either... It must be this piece of **** carrier rom....

Maybe somebody could upload the settings.apk and the settingsprovider.apk from a rom where it's working. But I guess you need root to install it
And backup your original two apks first! :good:

Hi,
Yeah I'm aware its "danageraus" to put the BT discoverable and on all the time, but still,
Is there a way to make it on discoverable with no time limit (120 seconds)?
Thank you.
Yarden.
MMM you tried with bluetooth on/off widget by Curve Fish?
also the HTC stock bluetooth widget does it,,,
What do you mean by HTC stock bluetooth widget?
Can you explain that please? I don't understand where you see it.
BTW, the curve fish doesn't have that option.
Only, on and off, nothing about the "Discoverable" marking.

yes
the htc stock widget its in the widgets section in(long press on desktop..etc..)
and then browse the settings widgets and select the bluetooth widget...
u seen it now?
if u enables this widget your device is visible all the time,,
Thank you for helping but unfortunately you are wrong.
I'm not visible to any one, I must go to settings to enable this 120 seconds Discoverable option.
Maybe you tested it with Known-Partner and he already got you on list, but with new people it can't be visible, I just tested trice.

I have the solution, if you are still interested.
It's in main.conf file.
If you want to know more, just tell me.
Oh yes please!
Hah I recently came across this BT thing and remembered I've asked for it once..
Funny world
I'd love to hear the solution, I don't care messing with some system dangerous files..

On ICS and JB ROMs it's possible in bluetooth settings.

Content has been removed.
this method didn't work.
The time do get changed from 120 to 0 and successfully store but the permission after reboot return to read and write
If permissions won't stay, use root explorer and on properties press "sticky", and they stay there.
However, I'd simply go for JB or ICS, who have the visibility option in settings...
rather than giving the "sticky" to anything, since it's a special permission, for which, I admit, I don't know the full impact on system.

I have transferred the file to another device and changed everything with root explorer. This time all sticked well but these changes does not produce any effect in the stock Rom.
Regarding ICS and JB roms I haven't found one for this device yet. The ones that claim to be are just roms dressed with apps and mods to look like one. Not real ports.

Hi to all!
Im having difficulty in having the sim tool kit icon appear in the app drawer in a 4.2 aosp custom rom. Stk.apk is located at system/apps but it is disabled. Proper permissions have already been made but still of no success. I think the app compiler has defaulted it to "false". How can i set this to be "true"?
Anyone who can help me with this problem because i need the sim tool kit very badly anytime of the day?
Thanks in advance...

What was the trick for getting it to work?
Hey Guys,
I have just released an app on the Google Play store.
It is a plugin for tasker so you can control your notification led
Free - Ad Free
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tinyroar.galaxys3ledcontroller
(this plugin only works for touchwiz roms)
Like a charm!
I had searched for a solution to this months ago before giving up. Thanks for this!
I can confirm that it is working on a rooted Verizon S3, as well as a rooted Verizon Note 2. Finally, I can sleep without feeling like I live next to a lighthouse. :victory:

this works great on my SIII is there anyway you can make one for the Note2? the playstore says its compatible yet it never downloads onto my device.
just noticed your post above saying your testing on note..lol sorry.. Im hoping that is note 2.
Thanks for this. I am relatively new to Tasker and this helps out quite a bit. Works perfectly on my SIII.

So, what can you do with this... not being flippant, just really getting into Tasker now and checking out all the different apps and plugins available and what they do, etc. Examples?
from my understanding there was a bug with tasker and lightflow that they wouldn't properly control the LED on the S3. This plug in allows you to create tasker tasks to turn them off and on.

I think any LED "bugs" would lie with LightFlow. It's just an all around POS on these devices.
This works great on both my gs3 and note 2
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using Tapatalk 2
I don't know if it's even possible what i'm about to ask, but would there be a chance to make this tasker plugin compatibele with Sony devices, for instance Xperia Z1?
I'm already trying solutions for hours but still cannot get tasker to turn off LED notifications at night when my device is charging on a dock.
I never had any problems with this before because I lways charged my phones face down, but now I'm using a dock so this is really bugging me!
EDIT: Light Flow isn't working for me either.
I know this is a REAL old thread, but I'm hoping someone might have a copy of this app. I was using it on my S7 Edge, accidentally deleted it, and it's no longer available in the Play Store. Any help greatly appreciated.
Edit: Never mind. I found the app here: http://www.apkmonk.com/app/com.tinyroar.galaxys3ledcontroller/

I should slap myself... i ignored to enable the app in the accessibility options when i initially installed it
I uninstalled, reinstalled AND THEN I READ THE DAMN POPUP PROPERLY!!! wheres the shoot myself smiley?
But YEAH!!! now i have moto X style notifications
Just a heads up
Been using this app as my lockscreen since it launched
Its now on v1.9.1 and working very nicely
Anyone else using it?
What are your experiences ?
Yup using it as well. Only thing that sucks is if you enable a lock pattern. Swiping the notification will show the original lock screen which you will have to swipe again to reveal the lock pattern page.

Fortuantely im not using any locks on my screen... so no issues from me...
And battery life seems really good these days... maybe its cos i used to have a BB. lol
As above. I'm looking to disable the cover on my phone if possible? My main reasoning is that I have ARUnchained on my phone with Tasker set to fully automate the process of connecting my phone to it on Chromecast. Currently the only limitation I have of leaving the phone in my pocket is that the quick circle case being closed stops it from working (keeps the screen off). I'm running AOSP 5.1.1 rooted.
Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

Download "Link2SD or Titanium backup" from playstore & then freeze "LgSmartCover".
Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately I don't see LgSmartCover. I'm guessing it's because it's a pure Nexus ROM rather than an LG G3 specific one with the loader?
All that happens when the cover closes is the screen shuts off and locks. There is no Quick Circle install or anything like that.
Thanks
Just go to definitions and simply disable it?

Definitions, general, and on smart functions disable quick circle case and it won't lock the phone when you close it
I still don't know what you're talking about. Do you mean in titanium backup? I don't see any definitions?
Additionally, are you keeping in mind that I'm on an AOSP ROM and not an LG variant? The quick circle case doesn't function as per the stock ROM, it simply puts the phone to sleep in the custom versions.
Thanks for your help, and patience

Hi there,
I think you are misunderstanding. I don't have an LG G3 ROM in the phone. I effectively have a Nexus ROM in my phone (Vanilla Rom) so I don't have the standard Quick Circle workings, apps, or any of that stuff. The port of the ROM allows the cover to turn the screen off, I'm looking to disable this.
Thanks anyway.
Ah ok sorry then
Try to navigate to /system/priv-app and delete LGCover(make a backup!)

Don't have LGCover. As said, it's a AOSP ROM.... not an LG one. There are no LG apps, plugins, skins, front ends, back ends or any other stuff. It's all ported nexus.
