[GUIDE] How to setup a NFC Key

I'm pretty new with making a tutorial on XDA. If I'm doing something wrong or you have a suggestion to make, then feel free to PM me
What's NFC Key?
NFC Key is a method of unlocking your phone (from the lockscreen) by simply touching your NFC tag on the back of your device.
Requirements
☞ Rooted Android Device ☜
☞ "NFC on lockscreen" MOD installed ☜
If this MOD is not yet supported on your device, kindly ask one of XDA members to port it over to your device!
☞ An NFC Tag ☜
A tag that can be written. Meaning if the tag is "Read-Only", then this probably won't work!
☞ Tasker ☜
Download
☞ Secure Settings ☜
Download
☞ NFC Task Launcher ☜

▶ Install Tasker before any other Tasker-related apps in order to avoid any sort of conflicts ◀

f

sweet. will be testing this out for sure.

I've installed / configures everything as described. Once the screen is locked and I hold the nfc tag to the phone I see that the apps are triggered behind but it never unlocks my phone :\ any advice?

I'm not 100% sure if the error is on my part or on a 3rd party app.
I can't test the NFC Key on my current phone due to lack of hacks(ROM/MOD) available for Korean Model.
But since I pulled the Tasker's task from TiBackUp, it shouldn't have any problem.
My previous USA phone will be ship to me within a month or so.
Until then, let's try something...
Can you try the following steps?
1) Go to "Tasker" app
2) View the menu with your hard key (soft key if it's in your screen)
3) Click "More"
4) Click "Run An Action"
5) Click "Plugin"
6) Click "Secure Settings"
7) Click "Edit" button
8) Click "Keyguard"
9) Click "Off"
10) Click "Save" icon on the bottom
11) Go back using hard key or app's back key
Try turning off and on your screen, are you free from the lockscreen?

No, I still have the lockscreen enabled.

Actions (15 available - 15 enabled): if I check the list I have a green dot on the left an (an active) light grey on the right. If I click on keyguard it changes to dark check mark on the right, so the light one must means its enabled.
edit: just to be prompt: my device has a password lock, all other lock options are disabled.

Can you check if all the root required apps are fully given a root permission?
If they are, try re-installing Secure Setting. And try rebooting your device (just in case).

Thanks for all your help, finally I figured out what was wrong. I have two other security apps which requires device admin rights, and it seems one of them is actually preventing secure settings to remove keyguard. Once I removed those from device admin your method is working without any problem.
Unfortunately I need those apps enabled and there is no way I can remove this safety function from them My bad
So, to all the others... I can confirm the NFC unlock method from peurocs4 works as described. Big thumbs up!

Ahh! No wonder why Secure Setting was not doing it's duty!
Why not as the security app developer to consider adding a whitelist or something like it?

nah, its a corporate stuff... mandatory always on password lock. Though I'm wondering if any app could actually type in the password by an NFC tag trigger
though, I would still need to confirm that if I'm allowed to do that way :\

You might able to do it with same method with different Tasker's Task (that types in what you programmed it to do).
But that obviously means anyone could see the password just by opening up the Tasker's Task.

I bought them here, fast shipping and good service :good:
And before ordering, read this

playing with NFC is fun.
I specifically like it for fixed tags though.

Guide about Honor magic

First of all I don't own a magic device however I use the magic firmware on my Honor 8 so I can't cover up all info about magic usage but most of them.
So Q/A
I can't install third party launchers, why?
Because huawei blocked this on this firmware. To install third party launchers you'll need root.
So I got a launcher installed. But I can't see any widgets?
Open /system/etc/permissions/handheld_core_hardware.xml and find there will be a # before it which disables the feature. Just remove it and reboot.
Why doesn't notifications work?
By default third party apps gets disabled notifications (idk why) go to notifications and enable them for your new installed apps.
I can't see nfc option?
This is due to being disabled in earlier builds. However B536.1 evaluation versions brings nfc settings.
Some options are still in Chinese why?
They have informed you that the English language is still in beta (unfinished) this we might be able to fix with overlays.
More will come.

What I can tell for now no I haven't seen any indication of it update wise . And since it's a test device rather then a official retail device it is likely they only are going to fix bugs etc. However I can't tell to a 100% but as its a half year since the device is released I doubt nougat is coming in near feature (if at all) there's no info as far as I can see (though I can't read or search in Chinese)

Honor magic usage
Hi There,
Magic phone is indeed magic like, feels really great and looks beautiful, very smooth feel in hand.
Needed few tips and tricks to make more use of it.
Are these possible without root, if rooted office email app will be blocked
1) How to install launcher as system app, Please pls guide. I'm dying to install Neon, Zero.
2) How to install Ultra battery mode? - it is present in Honor 6 and it's awesome!
3) Is it possible to reduce resolution - Screen power saving - like Honor 6, saves battery during night and driving
4) Possible to change keyboard during typing? Popups doesn't show in notification shade, it's painful to go to settings n change every time
TIA.
Tnx,
Shreyas

1. Without root is not possible to install any 3rd party launcher except google launcher.
2. Do you mean the ultrabattery launcher which comes with huawei? If so it could be possible.
3. Resolution i doubt without root, and no idea about that feature.
4. We'll if you don't use navigation bar no, if you do it might work. Can't tell since I don't use that firmware atm but I never saw any fast switch for keyboard

Hi,
I can't figure out how to remove the carrier name from the notification bar on the magic. There seems not to be any option in settings.
Any tips? Phone is rooted.

I think you can edit it somewhere in a xml
Or in a prop file
Say me can you help me with oeminfo?
Or are you using the magicdevice?
Sent from my FRD-L09 using Tapatalk

Yes I am using a magic for the moment.
I've been trying to find it in the props and xmls, but I didn't find "carrier" or "operator" with a grep. It might be called something else.

Google Launcher doesn’ Work. After the installation, when I try to open it, appear an error message who advise I need to change launcher in Settings-Home but in Settings there isn’t “home”

XDA-Developers: Customize the Google Pixel 2’s Active Edge to do any action with Edge Sense Plus [XDA Spotlight]​
What is Edge Sense Plus?
Edge Sense Plus was initially just meant for the HTC U series. It let's you customize the squeeze action and adds some more squeeze gestures and features.
But with the Pixel2 and Pixel3 also coming with a squeezable frame I found a way to make it compatible too.
Since google locked active edge down to just only be able to start Assistant it will require a device rooted with magisk
Requirements
You need to run a STOCK based ROM, because Active Edge is broken on AOSP roms.
You need to be rooted with magisk to use it.
Install the Active Edge System Mod Magisk Module from the MagiskManager Repo and the EdgeSensePlus from the playstore and you are ready to go!
Telegram Group
Join Telegram Edge Sense Plus Group
How does it work
To make it working on the Pixel3 I had to modify the SystemUIGoogle.apk that runs the ElmyraService (Service that processes the squeeze gestures).
I intercept the events and pass them to the EdgeSensePlus Application that starts the appropriate action then that you selected.
Some more adjustments were made, so the squeezing also works when you are in immersive mode, camera or when Google Assistant is deactivated/uninstalled.

What can it do?
Custom actions:
Currently you can choose from over different actions
Quickly Start camera - Also when screen is off and locked
Per App Action - Execute different squeeze actions depending in what app you are!
Sidebar
Gesture Panel - Draw custom gestures to start different actions
Custom App
Shortcuts - e.g. to make direct calls, start tasker tasks and more!
Scroll up/down

Recent Apps
Toggle Autorotation

Per app actions:
With the per app action, you can define different squeeze actions per app. So the chosen action will be executed dependent in what app you are currently are.
Double Squeeze: (Premium)
If you often accidentally trigger a short squeeze, that won't happen anymore if you map your desired action to the double squeeze gesture.
You can define a double squeeze interval, to ensure you are quick enough to trigger it every time.
Long Squeeze:
Missed a long squeeze action on your Pixel? Edge Sense Plus has it!
G-Sensor usage: (Premium)
If enabled, will be able to execute different actions depending on the current position of your device, whether it is flat or upright in your hand.
That way you can have six different squeeze gestures: short, long, doublepress in flat or upright device position.
Media control:
The media control will override your set squeeze actions while media is playing so you can control your media.
That includes play/pause, increase/decrease volume and skip to next and previous track.
Squeeze sounds:
Ever thought it would be funny if a squeeze of your Pixel3 would make a sound, if it is a *click*, *oink* , *fart* or whatever you think of?
You can use any .mp3 file to make that happen!
Sidebar:
The Sidebar has 4 different panels, Applications, Shortcuts, Recent Apps (Premium), Quicksettings (Premium).
Panel colors are customizable

Instructions
You must be on at least Oreo 8.1 to to be able to use it. Root with Magisk is required since the magisk module is mandatory!
It is recommended to have a working TWRP backup in case something goes wrong. Check the FAQ for help too.
Like always: Flash on your own risk. I'm not responsible for any damaga to your device
Flash the Magisk Module either in Magisk Manager or TWRP
Install Edge Sense Plus
Enjoy.
Downloads
Now also available via the MagiskManager Repo:
I recommend to install and update the Magisk Module directly via the MagiskManager repository directly in the MagiskManager app.
All releases will be also available on the GitHub repository
Edge Sense Plus:

YESSS!!!
This is simply a must-have!
Subscribed, rated, thanked... all before even having Pixel in my hands, but this will be the first app I will install (after Magisk, obviously).

If a new security update gets released I need to make sure first that its compatible. if not I need to port my changes to the new version.
Else you would softbrick your device (bootloop).

If you get adb connection, you could delete the folder "active_edge_system_mod" in /sbin/.magisk/img/
adb should usuall kick in also when it loops.

What are the adb commands to delete that folder?

"Pixel - Like" ALWAYS ON DISPLAY for Oneplus 6T [EDXPOSED] [STABLE] [Now-Playing]
Android 10 update:​The AOD implementation has been made to adapt with Tai Chi and not EDxposed[Chrome conflicts with app].
Step 1: (i) Flash the Tai chi Magisk module.
(ii) Install latest Tai Chi app.
Tai-Chi
Step 2: Enable OpAodMOD apk in Manage Modules section [Tai Chi].
Step 3: Update Compatibility Engine
Step 4: On Tai Chi homescreen, select "Add Apps", add System UI
[If you plan on using lyrics mode, you need to attach the offline music player app/ music Streaming app {Spotify, Poweramp,...} ]

Now you have a fully functioning Always On Display. You can now customize the AOD via the app.
For those complaining about contents of notification appearing on the AOD. Give this Edxposed app a try :
MaxLock
=================================================================================
For those who have modules not supported with Tai Chi, you can use EDxposed and Tai Chi at the same time.
Step 1: Enable App List Mode in EDxposed Manager settings.
Step 2: Black List Tai Chi in App List.
Now Tai Chi won't force stop with exposed enabled.

Lately i've been trying hard to find a fix for a phone (a.k.a Oneplus 6t ) which has no notification LED and an "Ambient Display" which is not enough (at least for me).
I've managed to get my hands on a Chinese app that was developed for Oneplus users to have the best ALWAYS ON DISPLAY. It works like charm with a Now playing, Dash charging indicator functionality and also displaying contents of your notifications. It replaces the Ambient display provided by Oneplus with this new one. I've not noticed any battery drains using this app. I'm on latest OPEN BETA 14.
Here are some samples i've taken:
I've been using this for the past 3 days and so far i am impressed. The AOD is working perfectly.
I used a substratum theme to make the in display fingerprint black because that is the only thing which stays still.
Here is the apk:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1VxwomPA0lNGnA3tBJJYeZq55xdvpmP7E/view?usp=sharing
The app is in chinese language. You might make use of these screenshots to configure it (I don't see any settings that needs to be changed though):
Else, you can use this app translator to change default chinese to english. the app is restricted to number of words that can be translated. You will need to login with email or phone number to use the app.
Hopefully, those who wanna give the app a try, will like it. :good:

Fingerprint works perfectly. I used a substratum theme to make it black to avoid burn in. The rest wont affect the screen. It keeps on showing different notifications and everything moves at random intervals.
It also uses the proximity sensor to turn off the ALWAYS ON DISPLAY-> Pocket mode

So how do we install it?

I think the default settings have the brightness level of the AOD on auto. Light sensor is being used. For me it's working.

The blue bubble option is the one for customization of the AOD. Select it and then the second option is the one for auto-brightness. Toggle it... You will see something appear down saying true or false. If its activated, it will display true. Else false.

it possible to change the clock size?

Nope, you can't. But it do reduces in font size when it displays notifications of apps.
I find the clock size perfect though. :3

Any way to switch from 24-hour format to 12-hour?
Also the dash right under the date usually means that it didn't retrieve weather data. I'm wondering where it pulls weather info from if that's actually the case.
This mod seems promising.
EDIT: Any way to hide sensitive content? I tried looking through the screenshots and following what I can, but it seems either I missed it or the option isn't there/working.

There's a problem when I make a call, the sensor doesn't work and the screen doesn't turn off.

I'm afraid no. This is no such option for 12 hour clock.
For me google sends me instant weather data via notification. So, as long as i have internet, the weather info will be up to date. It displays the google weather notification.
Yeah, the sensitive contents don't seem to work efficiently. Sometimes it doesn't display but sometimes it display.
You can lock your apps using app locker and eventually it wont display the data. It will only notify user of new notification.

Can't seem to make the weather show up

OPAodMod is an Xposed module that provides OnePlus devices on OxygenOS and HydrogenOS with an always on display like that on the Pixels (and other devices). It's existed for a while, but in the last few months stopped working due to the main developer (RetroX) moving on to another device. I picked it up, and after initially providing modded versions with only fixes and simple additions, was kindly given access to the full source code. OPAodMod has now been fully translated, with a new GUI which is easier to use.
Features:
Always on display, which runs all the time - unlike the OnePlus version
Customisable layout, with options including seven themes, including Pixel and OnePlus (OnePlus supports all the system clock styles too), and a DVD screensaver (it's exactly what you think it is)
Notification display, showing the text of a notification when you receive it and dropping back to just an icon after a few seconds
Live music lyrics on supported themes
Battery Optimisation options such as forcing doze and setting the refresh rate to 60Hz when the AoD is showing
Option to only display when you 'raise' your phone
Option to hide the screen when flipped/in your pocket, disable it overnight, or after a time period (10 minutes or 15 seconds)
Show your next alarm, current weather, and currently playing music
Display a short message (like that on your lockscreen)
Full settings GUI for the module with a live preview of your clock
Quick Settings toggle to enable/disable the AoD
Support for Ambient Music Mod for displaying ambient Now Playing tracks on the AoD

Thanks! Just to confirm, this has burn-in protection implemented? Any idea on the impact in the battery life?

Yes, this has burn in protection. The battery life does take a noticeable hit, I'm looking at ways to mitigate it better.

Thanks for confirming! I'll try it out. Looking forward to more features and optimizations.

This is awesome!
Just installed it now and it works AMAZING!
One thing I really wish it had is the Fingerprint unlock option on the AoD, but i'm guessing it might be a bit more work.
Is there a way I can participate in the development of the module?

Fingerprint works on the AoD. Chances are because you've just rebooted, it's falling back to the PIN. When it works from the lockscreen, it'll work on the AoD.
Unfortunately while I was given access to the source code privately, it's still not open source so there's no public development access.

I just noticed that the FP does indeed work, but the FP icon is not showing for some reason.
I'm on OP7TP McLaren if that helps.
It does show up on the lockscreen, though.

That's kind of intentional, though I would like to add an option to make it show an indication of where the sensor is. It's more minimal without it though.

Yes, it's minimalistic-looking without it, but it would be nice to have it toggleable

If I remember correctly, in RetroX's version it was impossible to hide notification text for apps that weren't China-specific. Is that still the case?

There's a short list of apps that are hidden with the toggle enabled:
I'll probably add a GUI to edit them at some point, but might just add some package names to the list before that.

Thanks for the info! Also, I don't know if it's technically possible, but consider following the system settings for hiding sensitive content on the lockscreen instead of a separate GUI/toggle. I currently have that enabled for messaging and mail apps and it works on the OnePlus ambient display as well.

It would be possible, but I'd prefer to leave it as a separate toggle for now. I'll maybe change it to default to match the system when I add the GUI to pick apps though.

Hi! I love the module, well done! I think it would be cool if you could also add a quicksettings toggle which makes it possible to easily turn the AOD on and off.

Just wanted to confirm, this is for rooted devices only? No way to get this without rooting? Great work, nonetheless.

New bugfix release, version 3.0.1b
Fixes:
- No longer shows 'null' for twelve on word clock
- Added translations for charging states
- Added the following apps as sensitive apps:
-> OnePlus SMS
-> OnePlus Phone
-> Google Phone
-> Google Messages
-> WhatsApp
-> Facebook Messenger
-> Facebook
-> Telegram
-> Instagram
-> Snapchat
-> Discord
-> Twitter
-> VK
-> Сбербанк Онлайн
-> Raiffeisen Online Russia
An app picker will be added later, this is just a stopgap.
Download is attached and also attached to first post

thanks for this app. Unfortunately couldnt get the "AOD only when phone is raised" option to work on 7T. stays on all the time. Would be nice if it could work on 7T as well! thanks

Hey guys,
I'm so glad to have come across this mod. I've been using this mod on my OnePlus 6 since a couple of hours. I can already say it consumes lesser power than the AOD on custom ROMs.
Thanks a lot!
Sohail

This is great, will there be a slider to change display brightness? Or maybe a way to shut off a checkerboard of pixels to reduce the effective brightness?
