Hi, does anyone know how to get NFC working on AOKP? Or is it just not possible? The AOKP thread seems indecisive.

Where should I look in the ROM?
If you're talking about the option under Settings > More... > NFC,
the option is there, but NFC still doesn't work.
That's why the Tags app doesn't show up even though it's installed and third party apps aren't able to pick up my ORCA card, even though they can on Glory.

NFC in fact does work otherwise it would not be in the rom

Better not ask in the thread bro. I'm certain NFC should work. Also this is probably the response you'll get:
"You are the only one out of thousands that has that issue. FULL WIPE"
Task, making everyone with an issue feel special.

My apologies for not clarifying.
I Odin'd back to stock, rerooted, installed CMW, full wiped, installed AOKP + GApps; same story:
Tags app doesn't show up, NFC doesn't seem to work with 3rd party apps.
So here's what I've done so far (yes, full wipes between every flash):
After AOKP, flashed Phone-Bricker - NFC worked fine.
ShirShir - NFC worked fine.
Reflashed AOKP.
Tried flashing NFCEnabler Patch over AOKP. The Tags app magically started appearing, the option to turn on NFC under Settings > More... disappears.
If anyone's had this issue or knows something I should try next, I'd really appreciate it thanks!
Did you figure out what was wrong? I think I have the same issue, came from stock and did a full wipe to AOKP 7.3.2012 w/newest GApps and flashed Siyah 3.4.3
I enabled NFC in the settings. I have the "Tags" app in my manage apps so I can delete it (but can't figure out how to launch it, if I need to).
I tried testing on 4 blank Type 2 Ultralight C tags but it does nothing with both NFC Task Launcher and TagWriter
I suppose I should flash a different ROM to make sure that it is software and not a bad tag(s)/nfc battery?

Hey, thanks for your response, but NFC is working for me now as of build 7.3
Oh grats man. So its just me then....dang it I hate being special lol. So do you run the Tags app from app drawer or is it a background service?
I guess I'll reflash the ROM. Not sure how I managed to screw this up. I mean I started with a full wipe and everything...

Yeah not sure how that happened to me either. I use the TagWriter app from the PlayStore. Seems to work for me.
Well I never figured out what my issue was lol
I full wiped and flashed 7.3.2012 with siyah kernel twice. Didn't work so I full wiped + flashed 7.1.2012. Also didn't work so I bought 2 more NFC batteries in case that was a problem (my first nfc battery was made in china not korea). Still didn't work, bought 5 more NFC tags to test on, didn't work. Used nfc tasklauncher, tagwriter, and taginfo but none picked up the tags
Flashed SHOstock2 v3.1.2 and it worked instantly -_-
Right, it might not work for you just because of angry clouds.

First off, all credit should go to Roman and the AOKP team for creating the rom, JT and sbrissen for making the fascinate able to run this setup, Stephen.k.Spear for the first port of this rom, and anyone else I forgot to mention that was involved (sorry). I'm not looking to take this port over or step on any toes, but I just wanted to share an awesome experience with the rest of the fascinate community.
Link to AOKP main site (changelogs, forums, FAQs, etc.)...
http://forum.aokp.co/
Installation instructions (have latest cwm recovery)...
-reboot into recovery via power button reboot options, terminal emulator, or rom manager (no 3 finger reboot if on any ics rom)
-wipe data / factory reset
-flash THS build 2 (not required if already on an ics rom)
-let phone boot up
-reboot into recovery via power button options
-wipe data / factory reset
-flash AOKP build 25
-let phone boot up
Build 25 download link...
http://db.tt/IBc5scHR
Info, fixes, walkarounds...
I based this port off of THS Build 6, and the Toro AOKP build. I included the gmail, market, and file explorer apps (have titanium backup on your sd card and easily browse through the file explorer to install it...then restore your apps). Everything is working flawlessly except for mms. A walkaround is to download setdns from the market (free)...
http://market.android.com/details?id=uk.co.mytechie.setDNS
Open app, choose custom, set dns1 to 8.8.8.8, set dns2 to 66.174.92.214, hit apply, reboot to recovery, wipe cache then dalvik, then reboot. Mms will work identically to all the other mtd based roms (no mms over wifi).
Currently the option in rom control / lockscreen options / enable fast torch is inop so there is no need to add it to the reboot options menu. An easy torch walkaround is to download flashlight + led from the market (free)...
http://market.android.com/details?id=com.devuni.flashlight
This app has a nice option that while on lockscreen, shaking (adjustable) the phone will turn on / off the led camera light, along with a lot of other great options.
Currently the option in rom control / lockscreen options / lockscreen wallpaper is inop due to soft resets over all ports. The original dev is working on it.
As far as nav bar options go, under rom control / power menu options, turn on show nav bar toggle. Then, when you press and hold the power button for reboot options, the option to hide / show the nav bar will be there. After toggling this you may have to rotate, or open a different screen to refresh the screen itself where the nav bar was. You could also just hit lock quick.
While docked, and only when using the dock, the miui battery bar shows charging, along with the info under settings / battery. It doesnt show charging on the battery icon itself, or the lock screen. It is charging though. Ill let the roms creator know about this issue.
When rebooting from reboot menu, you have to press reboot then reboot again in order to reboot normally, otherwise leaving it on reboot will reboot you into recovery. Its as if recovery is default if nothing is physically pressed. This is happening over all ports.
**continue to look at the op for newest info, fixes, etc.**
...will edit original post after work later with a lot more info...

To be honest, I swapped out so many smali files within framework.jar that I'm not sure which exactly fixed it. Its weird because my fascinate never had the wifi toggle bug all, but my wife's did...and I used the same exact procedures on each. Oh well, at least its fixed for good now!

acording to the op this port us based off of THS build 6.0
just install it from gb superclean 3 miles 2 ...
and just realise forget to install ths 2 wkwkwkwkwk
after installing cwm 4, and clear big 3, than just installing aokp 25 .. and it works
a little question :
is there a built in screen capture ?
how to use the wifi direct ? what is it actually ?
mmm .. my laptop able to connect to wifitether, but there is no sharing connection ...
*EDIT So many are having the FC issues, I am pulling it for now.
Sorry I guess 3 phones tested was not enough.
Will try to work out the kinks and get it back up soon.
I didn't do anything here except include Fennys new Phone APK and Qwerty KB fix. All the Kernel work is Fenny.
Thanks to Vlara and Howtomen for Putting the rom together with Fennys new Kernel which inclues the HW button fix.
Thanks also to Vlara for Deodexing.
The screen wake issue has yet to be resolved.
Other than that everything seems to be working fine.
All of Samsungs Bloatware is still there, including TouchWiz.
To adjust the Keyboard to the QWERTY android version from the QWERTZ Samsung Version, goto Language and Input, select Default, then English (US) Android Keyboard.
There is an issue with the kernel right now where you have to manually hash your restores, or they will not work.
Thanks again to FennyFatal, Vlara, and Howtomen!

Skipping set up and going straight to the phone didnt help either. Any action (open an app, settings etc) is receive with "Phone has stopped responding" or "TWLauncher has stopped responding".

Stopped working after today's CM9 nightly (Aug 8, 2012)
I installed it yesterday actually, and it was working great on my CM9 nightly version at the time. Very cool when it tells you how long it will take to get to work/home.
This morning, after updating to the latest nightly, it got replaced by the default google search box. So I tried re-installing it but I couldn't get it working on the latest version of CM9. Re-installing/uninstalling/re-installing still didn't make it work properly.
Did something in the current nightly break it, or is it something I'm missing I wonder?
Sounds like the nightly brokie it. I'm still running stock ICS.
I installed it a few hours ago. It crashes randomly. not sure of the cause, could be a bad flash. Still wondering about the auto-traffic info on the way home. Dunno how long it'll take to "learn" my routes.

running the same setup. i hear the sound but its really low. im using a jelly bean theme and it changes the little mic emblem at the end of the search bar to "google". other than that runs great. i had a nexus that was on jelly bean and google now pretty much picked up everything from there.
It was working perfectly on cm9 nightly about 7-29 and now on stable cm9 pressing search gives the normal Google search box and long pressing search goes to voice search on Google now so I can't access the main menu. Tried wiping cache, uninstalling, everything and I guess it's just broken

I'm pretty sure all you have to do is go to your app drawer and you will have an app just called Google. This will take you to your google now page with your cards. Give it a shot.
Thanks for the help, but no dice. Installing the 08-11 cm9 nightly fixed the tap search thing (makes it the Google now? version, looks similar to old search box but with similar design to Google now) but clicking the app in the drawer brings it back to that screen. Cards aren't a big deal for me but it appears different versions of cm9 have differing success.

I have been running SHOstock 1.3 for about a week now and I've been getting this persistent issue. My phone tends to freeze for a couple of seconds usually on the lock screen. And maybe at times when I'm texting. I have reflashed multiple times, full wipe, cache wipe, etc. I have also tried reflashing the kernel it self with the kernel cleaner zip. Still no luck I give up on looking around I never usually ask questions. I love the ROM its great to use very fluid and fast. I came from AOKP and I think I made a mistake in doing so. I just need the freezing part to stop. If not I am going back. Thanks if anyone has an answer.
Sent from my SGH-I777 using xda app-developers app
I don't have this problem. But one of the first things I did was disable help on lock screen under lockscreen settings. Report back on if it did anything for you.
Second. As always I Always move all of my apps that are on SD card to phone memory. This keeps the phone in its smooth state. (This may be your solution)
I assume you're running SHOstock3 1.3? There have been some issues reported with the lockscreen widgets and/or wifi - read the SHOstock3 thread and search for these keywords. Not sure if there is a fix, but I don't have any major problems using the lockscreen widgets/shortcuts with wifi. Maybe once in a while, but not often.

It's a known bug. I think Sho mentions in the v1.4 changelog that he [possibly] found a fix.
Yes, it seems we'll have a fix soon:
(v1.4) UPCOMING Soon
-Added Flashlight Toggle
-Added Black and Red INK Lockscreen Effect
-Edited powerprofile.xml for sgs2 (Was set up for sgs3) Also Disabled a bool setting for a notification LED widget we don't have. (both seem to have fixed the lockscreen hang)

Hey guys, so I got my S4 around July 4th and realized the same day I didn't like touchwiz. Got home, rooted and threw Dubbsy's rom on it.. I have been in love with the rom since I got it, never had an issue with gibberish provider name (except once) the lack of LTE bars didnt bother me because it still worked. The only major issue I ever had with it was my recent apps option stopped working. Well I just got the chance to update it to the newest build of the deoxed version and it has fixed the LTE bars and recent apps works again. It is fantastic and I really appreciate all the work you do! The ONLY issue I have is I only have 3 home screen pages. Is this a limitation of the rom, am i missing something simple??? I could use some help here and if it is a limitation of the rom, no big deal I can live with it until a newer version comes out

Dubbsy's ROM is nice and stock, with very few modifications.
If you want more home screens, I highly recommend simply throwing Nova Launcher on there. Grab it in the Market. It looks and performs 99% identically to the stock Nexus home screen, but adds a bit of customization. It's what I'm running on Dubbsy's and I've got no issues whatsoever.
If you still have a copy of one of the older versions of the ROM, pull launcher2.apk out of it's /system/app/ folder. I noticed the same thing and use 5 screens myself.
Once you pull the .apk replace the launcher2.apk in your current /system/app/ with it using a root enabled file manager under rw mode. Like the CM installed on the 4.9 edition or Root Explorer.
Once you've done that go ahead and reboot and you should be good.
At least, that's what I did.

Is that the only thing it changes? Any major changes to the system??
Yea, I've heard of nova launcher, would prefer a stock option, and if not then i will pick up nova launcher

Yea, it only changes the launcher. That's the only apk you would be replacing, and you wouldn't be using a third party substitute, it would be the genuine launcher since you would've pulled it from one of Dubbsy's older builds. I personally pulled it from 4.7.5 test since that's what I had on my sdcard at the time. Works fine.

Yea ive noticed that too, guess its the sacrifice for using the rom. oh well, no big deal.
GPS works fine for me.
I thought I only put the 3 page launcher in my odex version. I may have accidentally put it in the deo also. I'll fix that on next release if that's the case.

That's odd, I've never seen that issue before. I would say to do a fresh install and see if it continues. Im not able to reproduce the issue.

No issues with GPS here. Try and flash back to a stock based ROM, get a GPS lock and then flash back. It's an odd fix, but it seems to work for some.

Yea I had this issue on the last build, it was weird, it didnt work for weeks then randomly it started working fine, but would randomly freeze once in a blue moon.
The GPS also never got a lock on the last build, and i just double checked, it just sits there saying searching for GPS never gets an exact lock.

That doesn't look like Google Edition or BluKuban?

Flashing back to my stock build getting GPS lock and than re flashing the ROM worked for me! Now it seems to be working fine....
What a strange fix...
