NFC not work - Moto Z Play Questions & Answers

Moto Z Play (1635-03) with latest version Oreo (1635-02), after install not working NFC (google pay, data transfer). Why, can something need to customize!?

I haven't tried NFC yet.
So when you say it doesn't work, did you go to a POS (point of sale) and try it, and which app were you using to talk through the link to said POS?

For me. on reteu, NFC works good even after june patch ota. Theres a nfc switch in setting >> connected devices ensure its on.
And remind, the nfc antenna is in the upper left corner, sometimes I just find it difficult to place it right

As I understand it, the only way to get your phone to unlock the Samsung Ezon is to be using Google Wallet and use the Loyalty Cards feature. I don't think the Note has Google Wallet so you might be out of luck. I have been trying to do the same thing for months now with a One X, One, S4 and Nexus to no avail.
from a google search I found this quote
your mobile phone to be your access key. This would then allow you to control when your card is active and when it is not. If you have an Android device that supports Google Wallet, you’re all set. The trick is to have Google Wallet installed with at least one “Loyalty Card” setup in the wallet, then make sure the card is enabled. Doing this enables NFC card emulation on your device which will present a UID to the EZon when it is within range. This type of card emulation is different from your payment information (so you don’t have to worry about the lock charging your bank account each time you unlock it). You can then enroll your phone just like a physical access card to the EZon and use your phone to unlock the device. The added benefit is that when your phone’s screen is turned off, card emulation is off as well which makes things a lot harder to tap and then clone.

[Q] Google Wallet Tap and Pay CM11

I installed CM11 on my N7100. Most of the things I'm finding online indicate since Android 4.4 uses host card emulation (HCE) instead of the secure element, any 4.4 ROM on any device should have Google Wallet's Tap and Pay feature enabled, but this doesn't seem to be the case. I haven't actually tried paying with my phone yet, but when I go into Google Wallet, there's no Tap and Pay Settings, so I'm pretty sure it's not working. Does anyone know why it's not working and what I can do about it?

Am I the only person on the internet with this problem??
Seriously, I'm the only person with this issue??
no luck

No luck with CM11 on tmo sg3.
Same issue here on M7spr running cm11 tried it at a store where I know works and no luck
Its working fine for me on ATT GS4. I just flashed the January 31 nightly and went and downloaded wallet from play store and it set it up on its own. No troubles at all for me yet with this ROM besides that the s-view cover does not work, but that's to be expected.

You have to enable Tap & Pay within Google Wallet and make sure NFC is on. The Tap & Pay option in the settings menu only showed up on my phone after I did that.
I can't enable Tap & Pay within Google Wallet because it says "Not Available."
NFC is on. There's still no Tap & Pay option in the settings menu.
What device do you have?

I have the same problem. I have a Verizon GS3 and it worked on CM10 up until they disabled devices running anything lower than 4.4. So I moved up to CM11 and my NFC is on. There isn't a "Tap & Pay Settings" option in the Wallet app anymore. And under the "Tap & Pay section in the main phone settings, Google Wallet is selected.
I found this over on the CM Forum.
For those of you who do not know what HCE is, it is what makes tap and pay work for apps such as Google Wallet when device is running Kitkat. Kitkat does not use secure element. Android 4.3 used secure element and that is why Google Wallet worked when running on Android Jellybean 4.3. I am quoting information below from another article i read.
"Tap and pay functionality is available in the US, and requires one of the following NFC-enabled Android devices with a Secure Element chip running 2.3 (Gingerbread) or higher on select carrier networks, or an NFC-enabled Android device running 4.4 (KitKat) or higher:
I read that as an either/or statement.. the second doesn't seem conditional to the first
EDIT: What they didn't tell us, according to Entropy512:
HCE support is missing from the AOSP stack for NXP NFC controllers. It only works on Broadcom (NCI) controllers. (Unless it was pushed as part of the android-4.4-r1.2 tag...)
So if you have a device with an NXP NFC controller - still no Wallet for you. If your device has the HCE permissions XML (this will only happen if someone made a mistake), Google Wallet will indicate that it's 100% ready for payment, but won't react at all to a payment terminal.
(Another option is if an OEM implements HCE for NXP chips even though it is missing from AOSP.)"

[Q] NFC payments google wallet

We all know google wallet wont work with our phones anymore, but there is no clear answer that I could find.
Requisites for wallet:
Kitkat (4.4.x)
4g
NFC
NFC SE SIM card (this one was new to me)
Unrooted (this one may or may not be true)
I just went to verizon today to get my new NFC SE SIM card. It was surprisingly painless. When I booted back into Kitkat, there was still no option under the general "Settings" or "NFC" to enable Tap and Pay.
I am still rooted, so I will probably unroot soon just to test it. I will report back with anything I learn.
If anyone has been able to use tap and pay on Kitkat with the latest wallet app, please let me know what I've missed.
Thanks
It's just google not allowing it to work from non factory updates. i've read it on various threads here. it really sucks.

Hi everybody,
i just bought a smartwatch 3 and i just don't get how to activate the wifi, i searched everywhere but no information.. even to activate or desactivate nfc to save battery but i cant find th options..
if anybody can help...

WiFi is not enabled until Google releases a version of Android Wear that supports it.
The same for NFC, it's active but only limited functionality available right now.

This is great news to hear! Can I ask for the source?
SOURCES
You see here WiFi Ready:
Play Store https://play.google.com/store/devices/details?id=sony_smartwatch_3_black
Sony Developers Product White Paper: http://dl-developer.sonymobile.com/documentation/whitepapers/SmartWatch3_SWR50_WP_1.pdf
Verizon, Technical Specs http://www.verizonwireless.com/accessories/sony-smartwatch-3/ also in "FEATURES" it states "Wi-Fi ready (these features to be activated after launch, timing to be announced per Google)"
...And I posted official test documents in this forum proving it has WiFi
and the wait is almost over!!!
Been a long time in the making but finally:
Wi-Fi support
With GPS and offline music support, you can already leave your phone at home, then go jogging and jamming like normal. Now Android Wear supports watches with built-in Wi-Fi. As long as your watch is connected to a Wi-Fi network, and your phone has a data connection (wherever it is), you’ll be able to get notifications, send messages, and use all your favorite apps. And if you really do forget your phone, you can always ask your watch where it is.

Is the wifi feature properly working? How will I know if the wifi feature is working? does this mean i can turn off bluetooth on my phone and have the smart watch still work?
The latest update to the Wear app now includes the Wi-fi functionality however, I could not get it to work. Has anybody else had any better luck
You still need to receive the Smartwatch upgrade (watch itself)
It should be out in the next couple of days or weeks. Just keep checking the Sony companion app.
Is there a Sony companion app for the SW3? I normally just check under settings on the watch itself.

yeah for windows though
when I first bought my SW3, I received a firmware upgrade notification. I was able to update it thru the watch itself connected to my phone,

I didn't know there was any NFC functionality yet. What is currently usable for NFC?
I think the only thing NFC on the watch can do is open the app on your phone. Apart from that it's useless.
You can use NFC to pair headphones with your watch, I pair my sbh-80 headphones this way
Has anyone received the wifi update yet?

Thanks. I just found on another thread that it also starts up the watch when it's off. I tested it and that works and is pretty cool that NFC works when the watch is off, though I have doubts there will be many possibilities of using NFC with the watch off.
NFC can be somewhat powered by the reading device, so I thought I'd give this a try to see if it was enough to wake the watch up and power on. I turned my watch off, and tapped it to the NFC location on my phone. The phone launched the Android Wear companion app. The watch and phone both vibrated, and the "Sony" logo appeared on the watch then disappeared without ever finishing booting. I tried leaving it on the phone, and it buzzed a few times trying to start.

How to get mock GPS and pogo working on the Pixel XL?

As the title states, I want to be able to play Pokemon Go and use an app to spoof GPS. I do not care about Android Pay. I am really looking for advice on what to do, not how to do it. I am happy to do the legwork of figuring out how to install whatever is recommended.
I know I'm new here, so in an effort to show I've at least tried before creating a thread, here is what I've done so far:
- I tried various methods on a Verizon Samsung S4, but ultimately failed because the bootloader is locked. I learned a lot though, which was great (including never to buy phones from Verizon).
- I tried everything I could find on a Galaxy Tab S2. I got TWRP installed and tried every combination of SuperSU, suhide, rootswitch, Magisk, xposed, etc. Everything installed but pogo failed to start. I believe I need a different Kernel (although I can't remember specifically why), and there are not many options for that device.
- I got TWRP RC1 installed on my Pixel XL (purchased from Google, not Verizon), and successfully got dual boot working with a stock image in one slot, and rooted the other slot. I previously thought I needed to wait for Xposed to be released for Nougat, but I now think that may not be the case.
So, if my goal is strictly to manipulate GPS on my Pixel and still have pogo run, what is the path of least resistance? If I want to play without spoofing I can just boot my stock image.
This post by @Fenny (https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=70201392&postcount=106) says: "Really want to cheat at Pokemon go? Just patch the location service to always report that mock locations are off."
Could anyone elaborate on that? As I mentioned I don't care about Android Pay (although that would be a nice benefit). Is there perhaps a kernel for the pixel that will report mock locations as off, and still let pogo run? I am not familiar with how to patch the location service otherwise. I'd be willing to learn but I expect it is not a good starting place a for a newbie.
I also realize in the thread I linked above other people have reported they got pogo to run on a rooted Pixel using the patched files in that thread combined with suhide and rootswitch. If I do that, can I mock GPS locations without xposed? Or will I just be able to run pogo without spoofing?
Thanks for reading!
I've been able to spoof my gps and use a joystick app with pogo for a few months with just using Magisk and Magisk hide.. But now with the new update to pogo it will not allow you to use mock locations.. The pogo app loads but nothing shows on the maps(pokestops, Pokemon) and it says "failed to detect Location". Even with pogo running it says that and as soon as you stop the mock location app from spoofing it goes back to normal. Until someone makes an app that hides mock locations from pogo you won't be able too spoof.. I've even tried xposeds hide mock location module and it doesn't work as of now.

So this is a definite no chance as soon as you take the march update
and if you dont you get stuck dealing with the pixel draining your data by redownloading the update over and over again forcing you to installit and loose the ability to spoof gps ffs
