Which type of NFC tag works on the new Nexus 7?
I use NTAG203 versions and they work on the HTC One, S4, and the Nexus 7 2012 version.
I thought my NFC was broken on my Nexus 7 2013, but Android Beam worked with my S4.
I have a few NTAG203 stickers I had gotten to use with my HTC One, and they also work with my Nexus 7 as well. It's just a little awkward having the NFC reader right in the center of the back of the Nexus 7.
My tags like the N of Nexus on the back. I haven't gotten mine to work anywhere else.
I have some of the 203s.

nfc tags
What else can be used besides the 203's. Iv been looking everywhere. I can't find anything about the nexus 7 2013 and NFC tags.
Check with Tagstand. They have a plethora of tags, as well as the best NFC apps in the app store.

Thanks but that still doesn't tell me what type of NFC tags work with the new nexus 7. I went to their site and no mention of what tags work with what device. The best I found is that under some descriptions it says "works with most phones".
Everything I have bought from them works with my new nexus. I can't tell you part numbers though. Good guess would be any tag made for NFC. You could also call them.

Why don't you want to use the 203s? That's the most common. Just buy some and be done. NFC tags use a standard so they should all work. Various chips mostly differ by size and range.
I did a big project with 30 N7s and wristband NFC tags. They cheaped out and bought a different chip and it didn't work. Complete waste of like $4,000.
The 203s work well and recommended. I haven't tried a bunch

I have a thread in the Nexus 4 accessories section talking about Tagger.ca

They sell Topaz 512 chips and it's only $7 for 10. I can confirm compatibility with the Nexus 7 2013, Galaxy S4, Nexus 4, and Galaxy Nexus. Just a few weeks ago they sold the NTAG203 but now they seem to have gotten rid of it. It's a really great deal if you ask me.

Edit: Format/erase didnt help. Im going to exchange it. Good thing Im still within the 15day return policy with BB.
Edit: Exchanged worked. My NFC sweet spot is at the U.

Am highly considering getting a Nexus 7 to go along with my GSM galaxy nexus. the attractive price point, Specs, and size are what make me want the device. Have a OG transformer that ill give to my little sis with a keyboard and i replace that with this. Anyone have any objections to getting this bad boy? Only gripe i have is that it only goes up to 16GB! That and after using it for a while, my Gnex might feel small to me.
I think I'm gonna bite the bullet and order one $200 seems like a pretty awesome deal

just did for the 16 gb model.
Yup, ordered the Nexus 7 16 GB. I was planning on getting a Motorola Xoom (Currys were selling them for £130 but it turned out they were just lying about having them) so this seems a good substitute.
I'll be getting one. Have an A100 at the moment as I prefer the 7" tablet size but there is no dev scene on that thing and what can beat the dev scene of a nexus device?
Yep. Probably gonna get the 16 gig one in maybe month or so.

I am toying with the idea but I just sold my CM9'd touchpad due to lack of use because my GNex is serving me so well. Perhaps as a hack toy but that's why I bought the Touchpad.
Every nerd needs a hack toy...
Don't see the point, for me.
I have the iPad 3 and a Galaxy Nexus, and both are serving me good for what they do. The Nexus 7 just seems to be a Galaxy Nexus with a faster CPU and a bigger screen... It doesn't replace my iPad and doesn't do more than my Galaxy Nexus.
I am still not sold with the phone interface on 7" tablet.
And 16GB is too small ... without Micro SD card for tablet.
Looks like a nice bit of kit, but'll stick to my Xoom
I'm more anxious about getting jellybean on it than my nexus for the vsync
ordered it yesterday... 16g

Well after honestly thinking about it, i'm going to cancel my order in the morning. I seriously thought about it and i came to the conclusion that me having a gnex will ruin my experience. Honestly it will literally be our phone which is 16gb without any removable storage with a 7inch screen and some better specs running Jellybean that looks like it's in phone mode.. unless there are some features or value that i'm not seeing, pre-order remorse got the better of me.
I am, I am tired of my a500. Wi-Fi sucks and a teen inch tablet is not as comfortable as seven inch is

Definitely £150 is a no brainier. I'll probably give it to my girlfriend to use and continue using my HP Touchpad but that plan will probably change when I get my hands on it :-D
How's the procedure with Europe, it's cool that u guys from the states are able to get it from the playstore, but what about us guys in EU? Are there any news about that?

I wasn't able to watch the Google I/O yesterday so I decided to search the internet but couldn't find my answer.
Will we see 5 Nexus devices announced this October like the rumor suggested or is it unlikely?

You mean like a new nexus phone?
Yes sir.
Rumors running around the internet are that google will release 5 Nexus devices each from different manufacturers.
For example, one from Samsung, another from HTC, etc.
I want to know if google said anything about this during the Google I/O yesterday.

Not sure if they said something about 5 new phones, but they said, they are trying to fix the android version fragmentation problem.
Nope, wasn't mentioned. We'll most likely hear about it later in the year
Alright, thanks

I was hoping for an announcement too. Also when the price of the Galaxy Nexus was brought down to 350$ I was expecting something.
My old N1 is dying on me! Need a new Nexus phone!
The rumor was up to 5 Nexus "Devices", not necessarily phones.
They already have the Nexus 7 and Nexus Q, and if you include the Galaxy Nexus, that's 3 Nexus "Devices" that they are selling through the Play Store.

Good point! Wait for 2 more devices! Hoping for a phone! or even a Nexus 10!
Personally I hope they stick with the 1/year strategy. Makes them feel more special. Having multiple Nexuses (Nexii?) makes it seem like they're gonna go the Galaxy route and literally slap the Nexus name on anything that connects to facebook
Unlimited nexus
How about nexus certified. You get stock rom alternative for these devices and faster update?

Most probably they'll go the Apple route. A tablet and a phone alternating every 6 months, with one major version upgrade a year.
So we'll probably get a new Nexus phone on 4.2+ Jellybean this late fall/winter and one or two other Nexus devices
Just got a nexus 7 and it made me realize that I want a bigger screen any feed back would be much appreciated

I was thinking about waiting for the new nexus but decided to order a galaxy nexus this weekend. Even if they announce a new phone tonight it will probably be a few months before you will be able to get your hands on one. The only thing that will bum me out is if they drop the price on the play store again soon.
I just got mine and I love it to death. By far the best phone I have ever owned. And!! I haven't even rooted it yet cause I'm lazy! Or! Its because my computer is at the pawn shop!

It works on T-Mobile. Just like how the iPhone from AT&T works T-Mobile.
Same with the GNex.

How about now guys? My evo 3d is getting so old and acts up from time to time. I found one on craigslist for 200 bucks. I'm stuck on Sprint for the next few months so the Nexus 4 is a no go ....
I'm so tempted.

I would say yes. It's the newest nexus phone that sprint offers, since no nexus 4 :banghead:, and it's a great phone. Development is still going, and the 4.2.2 update will be coming to sprint sometime relatively soon.

At this time, I don't think so. Just get a Nexus 4 unlocked from google. The specs are so good, and so cheap, that it's a no brainer in my opinion.
I have a T-Mobile S3 and a Nexus 7 but they aren't interacting with one another via NFC/Android Beam. GS3 is running root box and the N7 is running Paranoid Android. Anyway to test which one isn't working? I've thought of buying tags but want to avoid buying other items unless necessary.
EDIT: I recently had my S3 LCD Replaced but I always assumed the battery is what allowed NFC to be used and the battery (as far as I know) is original.

Nfc is built into the stock battery.
Get nfc tag info from the store and test on any rfid tag, such as security tags.

Hello,
Is it the New Nexus 7 released in 2013?
If yes, I am not even aware it is available yet although I did read in the news that a man from China got it by mistake while shipping it from USA.
Do not tell me that you are that guy
Well, if you have the old model, Nexus 7 2012, then you have posted this in the wrong thread.
If you have the new Nexus 7, It depends that you can run custom roms or not. No one has seen the binaries or flash images for the New Nexus 7 so I can not say it might work or not. You might have to take the risk if you still want to try.
Also, I think unless LTE is integrated with some system files, you will be cool to go and not be able to use communications but that is still highly unlikely because from the old Nexus 7 LTE model, I know the source binaries were quite different.
You can even hard brick your device.
My advice, enjoy the LTE till it is official.
I work for a mobile company in the UK. So I have a final test one. A nexus 2013 LTE.

Probably never will make any voice calls, they so far go on overlaid 3g networks due to lots of upgrades required in the backhaul. Voip, ie. CSipSimple, is the way to go. And you will need a headset.
The Phone App is in the filesystem but doesn't show in the ui.
I'm hoping this will be different as it uses a different chip than the nexus 7 3g(2012)
The 2013 N7 LTE should be using a APQ8064-1AA + MDM9615A + WTR1605L,
which is very similar to the APQ8064 + MDM9615A + WTR1605L on the N4.
While it might be (hypothetically) possible for it to do so in hardware, it could still be disabled.
Both the N4 and 2013 N7's wifi/bt chips also support fm radio at the silicon level, but it's disabled at the chip level.
The LTE on the N4 is disabled at the firmware level (as the lte mod is due to leftover code, if it were not for that it doesnt have LTE period)
It could have voice calls disabled at the silicon level, chip level, firmware level, or rom level, since they can easily spec modems that have broken voice call support since it's not used in the first place.
