I just got off the phone with Samsung and they confirmed my hunch that the Galaxy Note does NOT have NFC capabilities.
Why would they include it in the skyrocket and then drop it in the newer note?
Do you think it could be because of the way that AT&T is going to handle NFC by requiring a special SIM card? Will the SIM card take over the NFC of the phone?
Does anyone know anything about this?
We have the NFC chip in the back cover. Its just not enabled.

RTFM......
From page 138.
NFC
Near Field Communication (NFC) will be available on this phone
in the future, but is now temporarily disabled.
I am hoping this will be opened up at some point with later releases of software, custom or not. I would love to slim down my actual wallet.

I had seen that but had also seen people saying that it didn't have it which is why I called Samsung. Just conflicting answers so I went to the source. Now I'm not sure why Samsung would say it doesn't have it when it does and is just inactive. My initial questions are invalid at this point as the users above have pointed out that it does have it and I posted the picture showing what I assume is the NFC chip.
That being said... I really hope that one of the great Devs around here can cook something up that enables it. I used it on my skyrocket and am missing it.
IMO, the ROMs should be created from the Canadian versions...or at least have the stuff you need stolen from them.
NFC is active
Can turn LTE on and off
Have S Planner
Those are three I can think of off the top of my head...there may be more.

The AT&T version has S Planner as well, it's just labeled as the regular calendar app.
Att did this...not samsung.

My guess, NFC will be made available with the roll out of the iPhone 5. Of course, that will essentially give the iPhone exclusive use of the feature for at least 6 months while it's slowly rolled out to older phones that have it disabled. (not that Apple would ever make a deal to stymie the competition so it looks like they were an innovator of something)

ton's of uses... not just payments.
one of the skyrocket guys has a tag set on his night stand that he set up to do a number of things when he sets his phone on it...ie turn volume down, turn on alarms etc etc ...all just buy setting the phone there
Open the back of the phone up, look at the inside of the back casing, the thing attached there with the 2 contacts on it is the nfc chip or radio. We have it, its just not active on the stock ROM but I assume will be on the ics upgrade or custom ROM as some have already pointed out.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda premium
nothing works with NFC unless you happen to live in a bigger city, and not even then usually. It's just a check box feature on phones. It may have a place in the future, but currently there is no use for a majority of people.

Must have been something recent (in the last year), I didn't have that option when I was on HERO
ok. I just downloaded some of those 10c apps a moment ago. When I first wanted to pay for them, it said, "bill to my sprint account" but it was greyed out and not available.
I saw a little tab saying that I needed to accept new terms from sprint. Once I checked that tab, I was able bill to sprint again.
I do know that I read a while back that this was being discontinued. The overall tone of the comments were not favorable. Perhaps Sprint got some negative feedback and decided to bring that option back with a new terms and conditions.
I think Sprint Did Away with it... But if it Still Works for some then thats Weird! Maybe it has something to do with the Market version your using?

I can't test it cause I don't have NFC, still very skeptical about this...
Hmm, interesting... It's using NfcGoogle.apk instead of Nfc.apk, it's also not using /system/lib/hw/nfc.exynos4.so
It almost looks like someone forward-ported the Gingerbread NFC stack.

The case is from Best Buy. I don't know the brand. It just has "Pt" on the back. It came with a belt clip which I don't use. I don't really like it that much but I didn't want to walk out of the store with this beauty unprotected.

Reassuring that they're at least acknowledging the issue and are working on it. "Soon" is not reassuring though. Will make it much easier to clear wallet settings though, instead of having to mess with the build.prop all the time :s

Those inactivity charges are going to eat into that 10 free dollars they gave out before disabling it.
Anyone else finds it ironic that google wallet dosen't support rooted devices, but the only way to make wallet work is to be rooted?
On a side note I like google wallet, but these are pretty bad growing pains hopefully google wallet can survive them.

If I recall correctly you can push plan b to your phone from the play website and it'll fire up and trace your phone. This of course depends on if your phone is still linked to your play account. It's worth a shot right? I tested it out a while back and it used gps and tower triangulation and emailed you the coordinates.

Man - I hear your PAIN !! >> seems like few pple are not so honest - even if they find your phone I doubt they would hand it back - sucks
I have had ONE PHONE stollen from my CHECKED LUGGAGE...... ((inside a backpack zipped - than backpack was inside ANOTHER ROLLAWAY luggage) .... Seems the FBI - TSA pple took the Camera SD card and Iphone + another HARD DRIVE !!)) .............. major major pains as I travel a lot and if they wanted to see my DATA = they welcome to do that anyday ,,,, nothing to hide !!
So I found out my "bags" was opened and things taken @ arrival in NEW ORLENS @ and contracted TSA. They jsut 'blow me off' saying " not them" - even though their STAFF told me = the video shows " they are checking your phone and camera" ....
SO I installed "find my phone" and it located the ADDRESS !!! ............. and hours later - it wasnt "alive anymore" so am guess a HAMMER was placed thru it ,,, and dumped!! = no sign ofmy 64GB card !! .............
So I know YOUR PAINS
> here is what u can do >>
since I see from your post , you already have another ANDROID phone
- install PLAN B
- go to settings and enter all the details it asks for lost phone (((( do NOT LOOSE purchase receiopts of your stolen phone)))
- PUSH PLAN B to the lost phone
and watch its " tracking" and location
- call police with Printed locations and or show them the location on your new phone
most times - few police WILL HELP you
often they too busy blah blah
Good luck !! cheers
Yeah I tried plan b nothing happen that phone is gone im taking my loses :/ next time I'll just make sure I have all the precautions sucks we live in such a dishonest place

Is that the blocking mode for when you want to sleep and stuff so that the notifications dont go off?

So i was messing around with an NFC tag and I programmed it to active the blocking mode, pretty much just to see what would happen. And to my surprise, it did indeed activate. Perhaps Verizon didn't delete it and maybe just made it inaccessible?

Nice find, I need to test this when I get home. I would like some screenshots or at least how you set the profile up if its not too much trouble.
Several of the custom ROMs already have this built in, plus a whole lot more

Yes, but the ability to have a custom rom is a luxury some of us do not have thanks to the update that was pushed out

Or for other reasons like security issues for work.

From what I've heard you can now use safestrap to install custom ROMs if you're on ME7. There are a lot of people using Hyperdrive that have taken the update. But it's cool that NFC will bring up blocking mode, if you don't want to go that route :good:

If I wish to access my company's assets from my personal phone, I must abide by my employers rules about that access. That includes not having root or using custom ROM's on Android devices.
This is enforced both by employment policy and systemic policy. This is very common with fortune 100 companies and government work.
Oh cool. I'll have to look at that.
Not everyone wants to install custom roms. Its nice to have a way to use something that should be easy access on the phone the qay samsung intended but for some reason verizon thinks we shouldn't. If it werent for the great service . . . .

Thank you! Good Find
Great info! Good job man, I can't wait to try it!
What setting in the app did you use to launch the program, I can't find blocking mode.
