NFC on s4 I9500 - NFC Hacking

Samsung has switched nfc chip on s4, when I try to scan Mifare Classic 1K and 4K (S60, S70), my s4 says that nfc tag not supported.
Is this a hardware problem? Should I change my phone to scan Mifare cards? Or a simple hack can enable the reader?

?????????????????????????????

This is indeed a HW problem. There is no fix since is a patent related problem. Mifare cards are unsupported by the broadcom chip.

You could try to find a NFC-enabled battery for your S2 and / or ask in the S2 forums.

The battery adds the nfc-antenna. Not the nfc-chip. GS2 with nfc chip in 6 countries, as far as I know. Not in Brasil.
At www.nfc-phones.org more info.
What's the model # of your sgs2? For instance I have NFC and the i-9100p does as well. There are some other variants of the i-9100 that are basically p versions. Do you have any RFID or NFC passport etc. That you could try and use it to read some info off it. Obviously it won't give you vital info off a credit card w/NFC or what not but you will pick up some information. And yes you need the NFC battery, first place you should look is on the battery it will say NFC towards the top.

NFC vs RFID

why would passports use NFC instead of RFID.
They don't, they do use rfid.

NFC is a small subset of RFID.

Is it possible to read rfid with nfc-rader?

NFC uses HF RFID which is in the 15 MHZ range.
I work at a company that develops printers with RFID Read/Write capabilities. I have written the HF tags we use and then read them with my phone using NFC TagInfo.
But you won't be able to read 125 KHz RFID tags with your NFC reader...

NFC uses 13.56 MHz, to be exact.

[Q] Any way to test NFC?

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.
