LOL!!! What a link!

I have had great experience from Tagstand - http://www.tagstand.com/
They say they ship "International" but not sure how far they will go. Great customer service though.

We are supposed to order those that are NDEF formatted right?

Has anyone found an actual practical use out of these tags yet? Am tempted but not really sure if I'm tempted just for the sake of it being new tech.

Check out the Creative uses for NFC tags thread for suggestions. Lots of people are using them to change phone settings when the they get into the car - turn off wifi, turn on car mode, increase notifcation volume, etc. and for setting alarms.
You can use NFC Task Launcher to change your settings and you can pick up the tags for a couple of quid here.

As was mentioned, the best use I've found is switching to and from different settings profiles depending on where I am. Some might say Tasker is good for this, and they're probably true, but as far as I know using Taskers location based setting changing can only go so far.
This allows fine grained control. Say you work on the same block that you live, but you want different settings for work and home...Tasker won't be able to do that for you. With these, though, you just stick one to your desk at home (or door, as some people apparently are doing ) and stick one to your desk and work. It's fast, simple, and convenient.
Also, they allow you to do a thing called profile tags. Basically, it allows you to switch between one set of settings and another using the same tag. I have one next to my nightstand that'll switch my phone to home mode on the first tap and switch it to sleep mode on the second tap...very nifty
All in all, they're a minor time saver. But they're cheap and easy to program, so why not?

I just bought 10 from buynfctags.com. I ordered them last Thursday and they arrived Saturday from Seattle, WA to Plano, TX with standard shipping.
The only problem I found is each item has a 5 item minimum. Total was about $12 for 5 cards and 5 keyrings. I got the NTAG variety after seeing somewhere that they are fast, reasonably sized (data-wise) and preformatted.
They work just fine and I've set up using NFCTask Launcher for use in my car that will turn off my wireless, turn on bluetooth, set my volume to 14 and start playing my music.

So I am supposed to order those that are NDEF formatted right?

Which NFC tags for S3?

Hi Ive received my Samsung S3 and know it does NFC stuff. I would like to use it for stuff like, keep one or two in the car to activate/deactivate car mode/Bluetooth on etc etc
I have seen the Samsung TecTiles NFC tags, but only available in the US, I'm in UK. SO can anyone suggest which to get, are they all the same? is there certain ones for creation functions etc?

There seem to be loads of types because there are loads of NFC types
The kind you want, though, is a MIFARE 13.56MHz, rewritable (important), lockable (also important so someone can't hijack it), and has 1K or 4K of memory depending on what you want to do with it.
I've bought tags from tagsfordroid.com before, and while they're not the absolute cheapest, they're cheap enough when you don't need bulk. I got the Androidified versions with keychain, but there's also plain white stickers if you wanted to print on it and stick it in a public place.

These tags you suggested hold 768 bytes. Question I have is how many tasks can one of these tags hold? I mainly would use these for turning on/off bluetooth, wifi, GPS, changing ringer volume and vibration, and launching a couple of apps. Think it could hold enough info to do all that at once? How about enough to hold vCard information and launch a website for my fathers business?

I bought some from here: http://tagsfordroid.com/tags/Home.html

If you search, much info can be found.
The two sites I have looked at personally are tagstand.com and buynfctags.com.
Both of those sites have tags for about 1 dollar each.
A good link to take a look at is "here"
This shows most of the usual types.
SUMMARY:
1k tags are the largest, and can hold the most data. Usually larger and thicker than the other chips.
NTAG203 tags are the best for typical use, can hold a moderate amount of data, and are the most current and fastest.
Don't get ultralight C if you can get the NTAG203 tags.
The normal ultralight tags (no C) are the smallest, and thinest, obviously, stated in the title. Very small memory, good for small tasks, such as wifi toggle, etc. Not always space for many tasks.
Personally, I will be purchasing mostly NTAG203, and a few ultralight.

They're usually rewritable, so you don't need too many. 1K is helpful if you're trying to get it to perform multiple tasks.

Or if you have some nfc enabled gear around ( i have some skiing tickets from dolomiti superski) and they are write protected you can still use them. i've been using them with the help of an app called NFC retag. if the app can read it (ive found it to work with most things, even my library card and my ramp exit card) you can assign actions to it. it may be a bit limited but you can't beat free . also use the nfc mod by mayhemer to enable nfc while screen is off

The problem with the small MIFARE ones is that they're 46B free. That works for URLs if you shorten them and for something like a Foursquare check-in or toggling your phone's sensors or sound, but doesn't work so well for messages or more data intensive things. They also don't work unless the back is non-conductive and don't react to sun or heat well.
I bought a 50-pack of the 4k ones from a supplier in Shenzen (they're called NtaG, can't find them online on a quick Google check, maybe someone else has better luck) for $20 when I was there. My house looks like someone ran amok with a stickerbook.

still waiting for them, most I found in UK are like 10 pounds for 5 so I decided to wait a bit for these, twice as cheap will post results, when I get them

After reading up on specifications for the different kind of tags i ended up buying 10pcs mifare 1k s50 tags. A friend of mine got his a while a go and they are so thin they arent even noticable under a layer of paint. Readability seems slightly worse though but it definately works.
Hope im not missing out on anything by not going for any of the alternatives. Hope to see some more reviews on the different brands and types soon.

Xperia NFC Smart tags(Do not buy)

Just got my Xperia NFC tags looking to set it up to launch application but the tags only have 46bytes memory and the memory it takes to launch an App is at least 60bytes so the most you can do with these things is store a few URLs.
So I'm have to go on eBay again to find some no-name 1kb tags to do the job.

These work awesome for me usIng NFC Task Launcher. http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B006TGVPL2/ref=mp_s_a_5?pi=SL75&qid=1348853544&sr=8-5

Btw, does anyone know where to buy a package of 5 or 10 all black NFC stickers?
I found packages that have several colors, but not all one color.
I could probably just use a black marker on them but that would look, dorky.

As far as I know those xperia tags are only made to trigger a procedure saved on the xperia phone and nothing more.
You can try samsung tectiles but they are only available in the us, so is the official app over playstore. (5 pcs about 15$)
Samsung is starting pi***ng me of with the accesories.

Hi,
You could take a look at AutomateIt (Pro). It has the possibility to trigger a list of tasks, like launching apps, when scanning an NFC tag.
As far as I know, the NFC Tag can even be formatted, AutomateIt only needs the tag ID, so size shouldn't be an issue here.
Bye,
Lutz

I've bought bulk NFC tags from www.tagstand.com and www.tagsfordroid.com
Both have worked without any issues using Tasker or NFC Task Launcher and they're pretty cheap. Haven't seen any all black NFC tags (Besides the Xperia ones) but you could ask them about it. I know tagstand does do custom type tags but you need to email them.

Where did you get them? I can only find the ones that claim to be original..

All tags that are not locked write protected and can be reprogrammed regardless of size, even those from xperia, sometime one app is unable to perform certain functions, whiles other can.
I had these NFC tags which I got from china shenzhen metro for USD 0.32 each, yes these tags are used to travel on the metro link, just like buying a ticket, but can be used for NFC functions, but only have 24kb usable space, can only be used enough for a few url, toggle BT, wifi or simple functions.
With certain app, it will not allow me to format and reuse them, including the NFC task launcher, other app will work and once formatted, it will work with most apps including NFC task launcher.
hope this helps.

For all I know it is fake, but it doesn't matter because it holds the same memory as original and the point I'm making is they completely useless for doing much of anything, and I bought it from eBay.

Mifare 1k NFC Tags from Ebay
Ebay is where I got Mifare 1k NFC Tags: www ebay.com/itm/150885916919
It ships from China, and takes about 2-3 weeks to ship it to US.
I have used both NFC Task Launcher and AnyTag and works flawlessly.

I am a bit surprised by the original post in this thread.
I took delivery of an Xperia T 2 weeks ago and bought a set of 4 Xperia Smart Tags last week.
When I get in the car the tag turns on my bluetooth and starts up sygic navigation.
And this is not using any third party software just the smart connect that was on the phone when I got it.
So the tags are certainly big enough to launch an app if used on the phones they were intended for.
This sounds like a limitation of the S3 not the tags

Which NFC tags does everyone use?

I want to try out some nfc tags and apps. Which tags are peopke using with which apps? I want to be able to turn toggle bluetooth, wifi, and gps when I get in and out of my car. Maybe a few other things.
Thanks!

I dont know even how to use that????

I had just purchased some tags from tagsfordroid.com after reading this post on what all can be done with NFC - http://www.reddit.com/r/Android/comments/10vipw/android_just_blows_me_away_sometimes_nfc/

I just ordered 10 tags from droidtiles.com. I was more interested in adhesive tags rather than keychain tags, so at $11 for 10 of them, you can't go wrong. Paid an extra $2 to ship to Canada. Can report back once I try 'em out.

i bought the official Samsung TecTiles. the only thing that sucks about them is that you need an app (that isn't compatible with the Nexus 7) to read the configuration (unless it's supposed to work that way).
i originally read about someone's setup, where they allowed the vistor to scan the NFC tag to connect to a protected Wi-Fi, but what's the point of that if you have to download an app first before being able to scan the tag?

For basic stuff like open website, or transfer a vcard you don't need any apps and works on every phone blackberry included..
Anything else.. You need an app...

Received them yesterday (pretty quick given that the tags were shipped from Hawaii and I'm in Toronto). They works like a charm. Highly recommended and much cheaper than TecTiles. Watch out if you're a TacTiles user, there's not enough memory on them, so they don't work with the tectiles app. Work perfectly with NFC Task Launcher though.

NFC Implant GT-I9505

Hey everyone, So I want to get an NFC chip implanted into my hand, don't ask why, ill think of a reason later.
For now I just want somebody more knowledgeable than I to tell me if this tag I am looking at [xM1 [Mifare S50 2x12mm Glass Tag]] Would be compatible with the broadcom NFC chip in my Galaxy S4 I9505?
It says on the page, " 13.56MHz ISO/IEC 14443-A Mifare S50 1K RFID chipset "
I believe there is a rule I cannot post links to pages with products for sale ?
Its from a site called dangerous things, as that's the first I found selling implantable chips..
Share with me your information please And thank you in advance!
And while im at it, Im trying to think of some cool uses for it, Is it possible to write to it something that lets me use it to pay for things ?
I have heard of people that do this..

As far as i know the broadcom nfc chip does not support the mifare protocol. You may be able to write NDEF data to it but i don't think you will be able to use the original mifare protocol.
Also i suggest you look into chips who can run you custom code like javacard

I love NFC and have been writing all kinds if crazy apps that utilize it, so the tag gets a ton of use. I'm planning on getting an NFC door lock and building and NFC auto start for my car.

Damn. XDA cut a ton of my reply out.
So, first off, ignore the "implications" guy. I cant tell you how many times ive heard its the mark of the beast, or that its a tracking device, or that its a dna harvester, etc etc. Cant beat crazy.
Anyways, I am an app developer, look up my name on the market. I LOVE NFC, most of my newer apps use NFC in some way. I have an app called NFCSecure that locks your device unless you have the nfc tag you setup as a key. thats a pretty big one.
Also tag a hue. turns tags into light switches for hue lights. i can lay in bed, scan my tag and if my light is off, it goes on and vice versa.
My ltest app is nfcvault. uses the tag as an encryption key for passwords, pins, etc.

I've got an implant from dangerousthings. The guy who runs it is very intelligent, very well connected to all the right people, tech, body mod, health, etc.
I've had it in for probably about a month, I got it a day before we started our trip to burning man, and even out there with so little time to heal it was fine.
I love NFC and have been writing all kinds if crazy apps that utilize it, so the tag gets a ton of use. I'm planning on getting an NFC door lock and building and NFC auto start for my car. There are soany awesome things you can do with NFC, and having a secure one on you at all times is pretty awesome.
I also have a magnet in theother hand. h
