Hi guys. Earlier ive put aside my GS3 on my wallet. I notice there's a sound, somekind like a notification. I empty my wallet and found out it caused by my work staff card. The card is biometric if im not mistaken. Any u guys know about this?

Yes, its enabled. Anything to do with NFC?
I tried and it got to do with NFC. Can this feature reads data on my staff card? =-O
No it's doesn't read data but it will make a connection with either your staff card or a back card over nfc

Download TagInfo from the marketplace and you can read what's on the card, almost certainly nothing exciting and just an apparently random number to identify the card. If you are feeling brave you can download TagWriter and see if you can write to it, just don't expect to be able to clock in/open doors/etc the next day at the office.
Download NFC RETAG and you can assign different tasks when your phone comes into contact with your card.
I've got it to open a Tube application when I scan my oyster card, my bank app when I scan my bank card and have a few old cards here and there as recycled NFC tags.

Hello!
I saw on the one site that, NFC could be used to read a public transport card with ticket. I have a student card with integrated public transport chip. It is possible to read it? What software will work? Thanks
Hi,
First of all, what country are you from?
My country, Singapore has an Ez-Link card and the application Farebot allows me to view the current balance left on the card and the transaction history of the card.
PS. Farebot can be downloaded from the play store.

Not sure if your card is supported. By the way, did you remember to turn on NFC within your S3 settings?
My student card has either RFID or NFC... on ICS my phone used to make the connection sound if you passed the card near the phone, but since JB it stopped doing that.
My Phone scans my card but it says not supported,

I got a 64gb SD card for storage. Do I need to do anything to allow my apps to write to SD cards? I recall this was once an issue in older versions of android.

Other way round. Previously no problem, now you have to use an app/xposed module to do that

Yeah, it was the other way around. I remember some apps having problems with my Incredible and couldn't store data on the onboard flash.
I have a Samsung Galaxy S5 with update 6.0.1 with the latest security patch level applied 11/1/16. Recently my microSD card status will go between two indicators in the notification bar: 1) SD card - For transferring photos and media, or 2) SD card was removed, please insert a new one. In both cases the same micro SD card remains in the phone. When I receive the message that the card has been removed, I can click on Storage in the Settings menu and see that only internal storage appears. At some point the SD card will reappear with the message from #1. I can restart my phone, I can turn it off and back on again, etc. but none of those things seem to alter the phone status of identifying that an SD card exists in the phone. It's quite annoying especially when I want to take photos or am transferring data from internal storage to the SD card when it suddenly becomes "removed". However, again, the change from being considered installed/mounted or missing/removed will happen at any time whether I'm using my phone or not. I've started to wonder whether I picked up a virus by visiting a site while reading news through the Google Play Newstand., which I've been doing a lot lately,.. but I've installed/uninstalled at least 5 different anti-virus/malware software and nothing is identifying a problem on my phone. AVG, McAfee, Bitdefender, Kaspersky, Malwarebytes Anti-Malware.
The only other oddity I have noticed about the same time is that I have Verizon Protection and Support which suddenly acted like I had never used it before and made me agree to the terms of use again - once I say ok to the terms, it returns that it cannot access data and try again later. Nothing I have done related to that software has worked and Verizon's only suggestion is to factory reset in which some users indicated that did not resolve the problem.
Has anyone else experienced either of these issues and found resolutions? Thank you in advance for any assistance you can provide.

Try Using your device without SD card for some time and then put that chip again. If the situation persist try wiping Cache of Your phone.
There is probably to many webdavs using all your cu. Obtrusive. To root or not to root. Providers say that root is what causes issues of vulnerability. You get these problems ether way but you can only fix with root.
What ever the problem is formatting your car should straighten it out. If you don't want to arrange your files a quick fix for webdav is to use root explorer. Search for "nomedia"and delete them all. Hopefully only apps you want have a good enough grip to put them back.

Thank you. I don't know how long you mean for "some time" but I did for about 30 minutes. I did use McAfee to clear app cache to free up space but I just checked and my current message is "SD card removed. Insert a new one" so apparently that didn't do it. I' did not allow it to clear thumbnails though.

Well, until now I considered myself fairly tech savvy... but I am not sure what webdavs are or what it means to root or not. Is root explorer software? And then, the next question is where would I search for "nomedia"? If you'd rather I do more research on these myself I can do that, no worries... but if they are easy enough to explain that would be great. Thanks so much!

Some time means at least a day.
And wiping Cache here I meant Clear the Entire Phone's Cache through Recovery
Good browsers have a search bar in them. A web dav is a network connection to a folder. If it is causing your card not to work now than likely it was put there by a demon and you want it gone. If you don't know what root is then you are a long ways out from putting up a fight. The only thing I could really advise you to do is do a factory reset that includes formatting the card. If you do ever decide to root be very careful the method.

Hello!
I bought this phone this week and so far I love it, long time Google Pixel user (p3a, p3xl, p4xl) that got enough of Google's AI deciding everything for me.
The cameras are amazing (Still gotta get used to it, so rn I am using auto mode) and the screen is unbeatable.
I have ONE issue with this phone, I mainly got it because I am currently deGoogling my online profile and I am planning on downloading everything from google photos and transfer it locally to my sd card and make backups every week (and store it on server in an ecrypted container). But I have been looking through the settings and can't seem to find the "Encrypt SD Card" mode, I want to encrypt it because I don't want the risk of me losing the phone and some random taking it and looking through everything I have on my SD card (that's unencrypted).
I am aware that If the device breaks down or stolen I won't be able to recover the data, but I'd much rather risking losing my data than someone else getting access to it.
Is there a way around this? I was looking into EDS or Cryptomator, but both seem to be too messy (having to access the files in the app) or need ROOT for mounting the countainers, do you guys recommend anything I can do here? I got about 70GB of photos and Videos to store on the sd card.
Looking forward to receiving replies,
Chali
Never encrypt data drives as you are the one most likely to be lock out. Many times it's through no fault of your own.
Physical security is the only real security. Phones don't just get lost unless you are careless. You ever lose your wallet?
You should probably rethink what you keep on the phone and how you handle the phone especially in unsecured environments.

Very true, but I will be making backups to other devices so that's not an issue for me. I usually split it in 3 online clouds and 2 HDD.
Would you place all your sensitive info in an external SD card without encryption?

Redundant backup is the only way. That sounds like a good plan. More hdds that have time staggered data and not store in one location. A Faraday cage ie earth grounded firebox is ideal.
A near lightning strike can wipe them... or magnets.
Like I said I never encrypt data drives including the one on my phone. Maybe if I had a vast empire to protect but that is not the case.
The only option i found is to put sensitive data in main internal phone's memory and a remote wipe if stolen (as i supposed phone itself is encrypted , not the sdcard) in case of sensitive infos (id cards, bank info etc)
but you have to backup its internal stockage ie some folders like "documents" regularly

An effective and safer option than encrypting the data drive. Encrypting the SD card will also impact read/write performance. How much I'm not sure.
I will reply to myself, I used EDS from the playstore. I created a hidden volume using veracrypt on pc and store files in it, I can access most files and documents within the EDS app, it works great.

But EDS needs root , just to prevent an useless purchase for unrooted users

You can explore the files inside the container (only FAT and exFAT formats) inside the EDS app and open them using another app, ROOT is needed to mount the volume (essentially being able to access it from any app)

It won't break the SD card when removed, but it will be unreadable on other devices.
Hello XDA
Just purchased a tablet for my father, and he wants to be able to view his camera pictures on it. So I purchased a plugin SD Card reader and found an app that will automatically load his pictures for him. He's elderly and I'm trying to simplify the process for him. Anyway, upon unplugging the card reader, a notification appears, "A USB storage device was removed unsafely. To prevent your tablet from restarting unexpectedly, save unsaved data and restart now." Obviously this is because I did not unmount the card reader. My questions are threefold.
*Is there anyway to disable that notification?
*If we continue to remove the card reader without unmounting it first, could that potentially damage the tablet?
*Could perhaps a USB type c splitter be used, so that the card reader can stay connected, yet still have a USB port available for charging?
Again he's elderly, and he's not gonna know how to unmount it each time. Thank you for any insight, it's a great help.
Specs: Tab S7+ SM-T970
Stock Android 13 Rooted, Magisk installed
Card reader in question: SanDisk Extreme Pro USB-C Reader
I doubt it will damage it unless you remove it in the middle of it downloading/loading/uploading something. I do not think you can disable it, but you can suppress it using Ncleaner (perhaps you may be able to, if you know exactly from where the notification is coming from). Can’t anwser your last question.

Thank you, that's kinda what I was thinking. Also, thank you for the tip about Ncleaner. No idea that even existed
