In mine (omega EMB5) I have both - but Android beam is an sub-option under NFC, while S-Beam is an option at the same level in Settings as NFC.
I keep both "beams" stopped but NFC itself ON since that one does not seem to draw such a big amount of power (at least not in my configuration).

No NFC battery, no NFC.

Even with nfc battery its not working. Btw im on cm10 tryed everything

Must be a problem with cm10 then.
Try flash another ROM of another release of cm10 and see if it works.
NFC is really of no use to us in Ireland yet anyway so you're not missing out on anything.

Have you tried the stock battery already?
Also did you do a complete wipe (system format and changed modem)
Nfc works fine for me and btw nfc is much more than just payment, check nfc task launcher

Last option i can think of is Odin with repartition, but be careful to use the correct pit, also try it without sd, if this also doesn't solve your problem, i guess it's a hardware fault.

Well, you need to have NFC capable android device for it to work. But I do doubt about S-beam as it is Samsung proprietary, but the Android Beam feature in ICS and above may work.

As mentioned in GSMArena, NFC is mentioned as optional. So first of all you have to make sure it is an NFC enabled phone, so Android Beam found in AOSP ICS should work. In the case of S-Beam someone may have to port it to S2, for it to work maybe. So chances are less.

Note 2 on s3

Are there any developers out there that would be willing to make a galaxy note 2 Rom for s3 that has all the features and icons so pretty much looks like s3 before you turn it on and then when you turn it on its a note 2 if that make sence there are lots of people that would love this kind of Rom thanks
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
Why would you want that?? All the important stuff has/is been/being ported....their is no need for a full rom as its virtually the same as ours....
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
Because every time I try port the features they don't work

The features are in other roms in android development....like pop-up browser, the gallery etc....

[Q] Wrong automatic timezone after installing rom

After installing ROMs on my galaxy s2 1900 like JellyBam or Revolt, they both cause a timezone issue. After a while, the automatic timezone detects GMT. Sometimes it goes back to the right timezone (australia) but it generally stays on Greenwich mean time. Of course I can manually set time, but it's been bugging me for an answer. Is this an issue with AOKP type roms, or the kernel? Or something i didn't do during flashing?

Need a fm radio app

Hey guys,
I have a rooted galaxy s2 running jelly bam android 4.2.2 rom, fm radio app is missing in the rom. I need stock jelly bean rom of galaxy s2, or any other alternative app. I tried fm radio by Sutton shin of play store it didn't worked for me
(not Internet radio apps like tune in etc. A traditional fm app like stock app)
Thank you.

Aren't there any other alternative? I even tried spirit fm unlocked, but no result. Tried few other apps too but they didn't worked either.

Yes, For now none will wrk on AOKP JB v4.2.2 or roms based on it
Bottom line is, if you really need it, run stock. If you want an alternative (to work on AOSP), code it yourself. Just about every dev who's ever been asked about this has gone 'Who cares ?' (Codeworkx did this quite memorably once & threw a bunch of expletives in for good measure).

Thanks for your suggestion. If I had coded it myself I would have posted the link for the apk file along with this post, since the question was about custom roms there is no question of stock rom
