Hi, i think the title says it all
im new in this NFC thing, recieved my tags yesterday and i spend the day playing with it!
but i have one question / problem and i dont know if its possible, i want to enable the alarm, but the alarms i already had programed in my clock,
but i can only create new alarms.
i tryed dozens of nfc apps in playstore, and all have the same function to alarm, they add a new one instead of enabling the existing ones..
any workaround for this ?
thanks
The reason for this is that pretty much all alarm apps (including stock) allow for multiple alarms, so if you tap a tag that is just supposed to turn your alarm on, it wouldn't know which one. The Samsung Tectile app kinda has a work around - you set up an alarm within the app, then you can create a tag to just turn on, turn off, or toggle that one alarm in the app. Of course, this is dependent upon you having a phone that the Samsung Tectile app is compatible with and also having 1K tags because their app uses more memory for a simple task than any other NFC app out there.
That's the only nfc app I know of that has a feature kinda like what you are wanting to do. Hope that helps.

The reason for this is that most apps use the ALARM intent to set alarms. Some apps (like the stock AOSP clock package) identify duplicate alarms and enable them rather than creating new alarms. Others (like HTC and Samsung's clock packages) create a new alarm every time.
To get around this you could try operating directly on the alarms databases (assuming they are exposed via a content resolver and there's a listener to pick up the changes).
Would just turning alarm volume up or down to mute accomplish what you want?

Hi. I have a gt7100 and the stock alarm is abysmal. I have to use the stock because it is the only one that works past my lock screen.
Just to clarify - It doesn't activate itself, so It fails to come on. Hence I've gotten up very late on a couple of occasions.
It is definitely on, and is set to repeat every week....
It does work if you set it for 1 minute later and just wait, but if you leave it, something happens which makes it not go off.
Somebody was saying something about programs that could cause this, but I don't have ANY lock screen widgets..... Is that even possible? I don't have widget locker installed.

Please help as I just got my old iPhone 4 to use as my alarm (Airplane Mode). Really want to get this problem fixed. Can't stand using the iPhone as my alarm.
Also my phone is on stock Touch Wiz 4.1.1 - Rooted. And I use Nova Launcher Prime 2.0
It's understandable why some people just stick with basic iPhones now!
Has nobody experienced this sort of issue? Alarm has always gone off?
Hi,
What are your must have apps and favorites for your Moto G. Post here and let us know what is nice, great, silly or just COOL!
Here are a few of my personal favs enjoy
------------------------------------------------------
NEWS APP - Flipboard Gorgeous flip and slide animations, excellent at compiling searched info into your very own personalized magazine
FILE MANAGER - File Manager (Explorer)
MUSIC - Poweramp (The king of the hill)
BATTERY WIDGET - Battery Widget Reborn (Includes proper battery % in the notification bar)
CLOCK - 3D Flip Clock (multi-touch programmable, weather, great look)
LAUNCHER - Nova (Not as flash as some launchers, but still great)
TEXT APP - 8SMS (Simple, crisp and clean, with nice clear pop up notification)
BARCODE SCANNER - ShopSavvy Barcode Scanner (Very quick at capturing scans and showing comparison prices on amazon etc.)
KEYBOARD - Google Keyboard (the swipe is gorgeous, it's quick and very very smart)
WALLPAPER APP - Zedge (includes ringtones and notification tones)
POWER CONTROL WIDGET - Power Toggles (Very customizable and quick)
SCREEN OFF - Screen Off and Lock (a great wee app I put on all my devices, touch and screen off) comes with various off animations but I always use retro tv
BEST COOL APP - Gravity Screen (automation at its coolest)
2nd BEST COOL APP - Light Flow Lite - LED Control (Set up different colours and flash rate and vibration for all your notifications)
LIVE TV (UK) - TVCatchup (Basically live UK tv channels BBC, ITV, C4 etc.. turns your phone into a portable tv)

I like Pulse over flipboard try it. ^_^
Google Newstand is pretty cool too.But it consumes too much data.

Live Score Addicts and The Football App are pretty great for football freaks.
I also love Feedly (news content) and Swiftkey (probably the best keyboard). I also like Greenify very much, but it's unuseful now because we have no root on the phone.. (unless unlocking the bootloader which I don't want to do now).
What's the battery life like with all of these apps installed? Also, anyone try the Google Experience Launcher over Nova for their launcher?
I like the Google Now feature, especially with the feature to be able to say "Ok Google" at any time on your home screen. Gravity Screen also seems like it'd waste a lot of battery.
Lightflow has low utility as our devices only has the white led...

i use Chronus for clock, calendar and weather, it's a really good app
Here are some to start off:
ES File Explorer is my favorite file managing app
Airdroid
Dynamic Notifications is worth a try
Evernote
Pandora
TuneIn Radio
Dropbox
Skydrive
Skype
i'm agree, Airdroid is Awesome !
i forget a precious apps : Llama - Location Profiles to automatically activate/deactivate wifi, sound, or other things.
Android Reverse Tethering - Presently, you are required to connect / disconnect to a wifi signal before running this utility.
Must have apps on my Moto G :
1) ES File Explorer
2) Titanium Backup ( if rooted )
3) Skype
4) Mx Player
5) LiveScore
6) Winamo Pro ( for shoutcast )
7) PowerAmp for local music
8) Adobe Reader
9) Ebay
10) Flashlight
11) KitKat Launcher
For battery percentage you should use "battery overlay percent" it shows the % you have left as overlay on your original battery. :good:
I also like "Power schedule", for turning bluetooth etc. on and off. :fingers-crossed:
my all time list:
smart launcher,
bsplayer,
dropbox,
es file explorer,
jetaudio,
keep,
my cloud player,
quickpic,
skype,
stumbleupon,
tunein radio,
uberhype

Sofascore<<< I'm convinced that this is THE best football/score app there is with a modern android design.
I use a sound through wifi a lot and definitely the best pair are: AirBubble for receiving (paid, or otherwise a lot of noise after half an hour of use) and Aoa for transmitting the signal from my Android TV stick.

One issue i do have is the lack of Flash player for this phone, i have tried all links to do with it, but no joy, any ideas?
Install Dolphin Browser, that has flash on it.

It did not work for me,
However,
Doing this worked like a charm.
Save the Flash player.apk to Google drive (this has filters and converters)
Once saved open from your device and hey presto it installs Flash player to your phone.
Apparently it will work this way on other apk files that don't install normally
i will try to find the link where i got the tip from.
Hi to all,
A simply question:
I don't like google now, so I prefer calendar app on the phone to take appointment.
I like to take appointment with calendar app because I can synchronize with PC, tablet and all have android o google sync.
When I say Ok google, it takes a reminder.....
So I go to wear app and see Asus calendar app is not listed in compatible app.
I come from Gear 2 neo with Galaxy S III and I like it because it save on calendar app (proprietary of Samsung, obviously).
Anyway to save in Asus calendar on my ZenFone 2?

New app] AutoWatch - Tasker Integration for Samsung Wearables
Developer
My app called AutoWatch just posted to the Galaxy Store! It is in its infancy, but can currently launch any watch app via Tasker on your phone. This is also useful for WatchMaker users as it will allow you to launch ANY app on the watch via tap actions (not all apps allow you to launch them from WatchMaker).
Galaxy Store Listing: http://apps.samsung.com/gear/appDetail.as?appId=com.tasker.autowatch
Play Store Phone Companion App Listing: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tasker.autowatch
YouTube Tutorial: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3uUP-B97w-w
YouTube Tutorial for WatchMaker: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JVggRrNbGEg
TO DO LIST:
Allow the user to vibrate the watch for any duration from Tasker.
Add a shake gesture to allow the user to flick their wrist, and have an app open.
Add the ability to run Tasker tasks based on changing settings on the watch (battery charging, battery discharging, wifi, brightness, etc.)
