Samsung TecTiles / Sony SmartTags - NFC Hacking

Does Tectitle / smarttag work as regular nfc tag ?
Does Tectitle / smarttag app work with regular nfc tag ?

Yes and Yes.

so I'll buy regular tags .. those tags from samsung and sony too high

The only advantage to tectiles is that you can walk into a store and get a pack to try. No shipping, etc. Otherwise online is way cheaper.

Yes it works.
I've tried using my HTC phone + blank tags + TecTiles App and it all works!

It should work without issues but there's not benefit compared to "usual" tags

oh
my tags from Web Evolved are working just fine with the NFC task app

yeah i have lunarglide 3 and sensor. i want to use it. =(
+1 for nike+ on android.
I looked into this (Also a Nike+ and Atrix user), unfortunately I don't think it's possible because Nike+ isn't bluetooth, ANT+ (in which case our phone doesn't support it either) and mostlikely uses a proprietary protocol/frequencies for communicating with the foot sensor. Also, Nike signed an exclusive contract with Apple so, while they could create an Android App & some receiver device they won't....Unless they want to lose their lucrative deal with Apple
Also, your GPS is built into the phone and doesn't cost you anything if you have a data plan to get Google Maps. You don't need to pay for it to AT&T (They basically just tell you where your family is, which you can do for free with Latitude)
The few viable solutions that I can see for treadmill running (which is the case why you couldn't use the GPS solutions abundant on Android) are:
Garmin 405 (or similar) watch + footpod sensor which runs ANT+
A Sony phone which has ANT+ which you can pair with footpod and ANT+
MotoActiv which has ANT+ and can be used with a footpod and ANT+
What you really want, that doesn't exist (to my knowledge) is a bluetooth cadence sensor and an Android App to convert the candence information into human readable data like Nike+
^+1
Nike+ will probably never see support for the Android.
I would even buy an alternative to nike + as long as it were as intuitive and as easy to use. Nike + for android +1
You can allways go with the nike sportband

[Q] Bluetooth 4.0 on Galaxy Note II

Anyone tried to connect via bluetooth v4.0 to any accessory?
I am trying to connect to a Polar H7 Bluetooth Low Power Heart Rate Monitor with a Samsung S3 with no luck.
Just curious if with a Note II it works?
Thanks
No problems here. But my accessories have been audio. You should check with the cuff vendors to see which profiles/services it needs. If they're pretty standard and in the gn2 stack, they may be able to guide you more.
-----
I would love to help you, but help yourself first: ask a better question
http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
But your accessories are also Bluetooth V4.0 Low Energy?
Not necessarily. I use headphones and car stereos.
Each bluetooth version has a specific set of services it adds on from the prior version. When a product uses bluetooth it may choose to use all or only some of the services. What you want to find out is what services your monitor uses. For instance, it may not need A2DP, which are audio services, or HSP handsets.
http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bluetooth_profile
That link happens to mention low energy requirements.
Once you know the profiles it uses, you can check what the gn2 supports.
I don't know enough about your monitor to be able to help you more. I would suspect the manufacturer of your monitor could help more.
I don't know where you live, but you could try taking it in to the store and attempt to connect it. Ask the salesperson for help.
http://m.samsung.com/uk/consumer/mobile-devices/galaxy-note/galaxy-note/GT-N7100RWDBTU
That does show it supports LE, which I assume is low energy.

Bit late answer but..
The HR7 is a BLE device and the Note II is a BLE capable device.
However since Google failed to put a proper Bluetooth stack for BLE in it it won't work.
There are some apps in the market that use some kind of samsung library to show that you can actually see the device .
But these work very spotty, i know since i have both the hr7 and the noteii.
And although i can get it to appear in connections dialog windows i have only been able to use it once.
Search the forums for SGIII and BLE you'll find more info.
The bluetooth stack problem is there. Google has not kept the same stack for all versions and also incomplete. AFAIK I think they have changed to broadcom BT stack for 4.1/4.2 and its still incomplete. So maybe at a later version compatibility with all devices will be there.
as of now you could pair unpair a few times. Maybe that might work.
Yes, as far as I know there is not yet any firmware version with a workable ble stack. Keep waiting... meanwhile my Polar H7 heart rate band may become obsolete with the waiting shame on samsung.
connected all my bt devices without any problem..check the settings of ur bt device..
I can also connected all my bt devices without any problem, except those that are Bluetooth version 4.0... like my Polar H7 chest band.

I have this problem too. I didn't realise I would even need to look into if it would be compatible. I thought the whole point of Bluetooth was it was standard!
So, is this something we can expect to work in the future, or should I just send it back to Amazon?

But you can also buy the other polar bluetooth hr monitor (the non smart (stupid?) one)
Same price but poor battery life...

Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda app-developers app
I couldn't get the Polar H7 Smart heart rate monitor working on the Note 2 with any of the sports apps in the Play Store. Bluetooth low energy (also called Smart) does not appear to be supported on the Note 2. I've decided to order the Zephyr HxM and will be giving that a try on Saturday as an alternative approach. It uses standard Bluetooth and should work. I'm keeping the Polar H7 hoping that later in the year when Android 5 is released we will get working Bluetooth Low Energy (Smart) support. The Samsung site is very misleading and states Bluetooth 4.0 LE support as a feature on the phone. It does not work. There is an app in the Play Store called Smart Scanner that can use the HW in the Note 2 to see the Polar H7 ... it just can not do anything more with it. So the HW is functional; it just lacks Android OS support.
If anyone figures out how to get BLE (ie. Bluetooth Low Energy or Smart) devices working on the Note 2, please post your solution.

Nice summary! :good:
I came to the same conclusion!
Thanks ... I should have also mentioned that when the Samsung Galaxy S 4 was recently announced it seemed to have support for some sports / health apps and gadgets. I was wondering if they were Bluetooth 4.0 LE based. If so, that would lead me to believe that Samsung must have a working Bluetooth 4.0 LE (Smart) patch for the version of Android the phone is going to launch with ... this might mean that there may be some hope for a fix for the Note 2. I'm just speculating here ... but, hoping that Samsung will fix this problem.

NFC Standards

I'm working on an NFC related project for my company and I had a couple of questions that I was wondering if any of you guys could cover:
1) Does Microsoft/Google have requirements for what NFC standards are required? For example, The Nexus 4 has a chip that doesn't fully support MIFARE, so am I to assume that the ISO 18092 standard must be supported since that is technically the definition of NFC?
2) I hear that the NXP chip is currently in android handsets, except for the Nexus 4. Is it the PN 512 chip?
3) Does anyone know what NFC chips are in the Windows Phone 8 handsets?

Required for what? NFC Standard is defined by the NFC Forum. NFC is 18092, Mifare is 14443-3A

Large capacity tag for all devices.

Does anyone know where I can find NFC tags with more than the tiny 150b available in the NTAG203?
I'm looking for ones that are compatible with all devices, so the mifare ones won't work.
I read a press release from a company called Inside Secure that said they made 2K NFC tags that were type 4 compliant, but cannot find any of their tags anywhere.

Desfires should work with the S4 (it's using the Broadcom controller which supports Type 4 tags). Otherwise you can find 512 byte Topaz tags.

DESfire EV1 tags. Plastic card size, I purchased one of the 8kb ones and yes it works on S4.

Which "china" Miracasr dongle?

Since IOGEAR GWAVR is no where to find in EU and in Ebay cost to much. (shipp+tax). So Im gonna buy a cheap china miracast dongle instead. But which of so many miracast dongle does works with Note 2014?
Considering these cheaps one: http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_sacat=0&_from=R40&_nkw=miracast&_sop=15
But if any know where in EU does it sale IOGEAR GWAVR, that doesnt cost a fortune and I will buy it instead.

I am using Google Chrome cast. While i don't get the entire tablet on the screen I can watch any videos, pictures etc on my TV and it was 35 bucks at best buy. The video is pretty much all I cared about and it saved me some money doing it this way.
i search Taobao. Com ,there are a lot of options. The price is about 160 rmb (20-30 US dollars)
I'm using the action tech screen beam pro right now and its great. Watching one piece via S anime while writing this.

Too expensive, cost over 100US to buy it and that is too much.
I just want stream live streams to TV and screen mirroring. Buy from ebay, takes around 1-2 months (if lucky an be faster) and dont want to wait if buy a none working with Note 2014.

Nice thread! I would like to learn a little more of this!
Please can someone share the experience ?
EZCast/ EZMirror ? iPush ? Some say can do miracast and airplay!
Can we have a dongle :
- HDMI and AV connection ?
- Mirror what's on our Android screen
- Mirror what's on iPhone screen
- Mirror PC/MAC
Thanks
Hi all,
My colleagues and I use this :
www.tinydeal.com/fr/hi763-miracast-dlna-airplay-wifi-display-dongle-for-smartphone-p-111836.html
It is compatible with Miracast, DLNA and AirPlay. I can mirror my android devices and computers screen (Wifi Display) and stream airplay on the TV.
Also, there are some little issue with some of custom roms. But with my SM-P600 (MK1) it works flawlessly.

I read that some requires iPush to be downloaded from Play others EZCast/EZAir, is it the case for this dongle?
I've seen some youtube reviews and it seems that visualizing video the audio is a little lag from the image, is it common from this cheap dongles?
Anyone knows if there is any dongle with RCA analogue output instead of using an expensive HDMI-RCA converter ?

Sorry, I don't really understand "some requires iPush to be downloaded from Play others EZCast/EZAir, is it the case for this dongle?". But I'm using the Note 10.1 2014 with the native mirroring service included. And on my computer I'm using the native wireless display of windows 8 (I have an Intel proc with an Nvidia video card). Some of my colleagues use iTunes for streaming on the dongle.
I've forgot to mention one thing. The dongle does not allow to receive all airplay, miracast, dlna on the same time. There is a little switch on the dongle for choosing the dlna or airplay mode.
My recommendation is to avoid all cheap chinese miracast dongles. Got mine from Ebay and it works like crap.
- Wifi streaming hangs all the time.
- Resolution works fine from beginning and suddenly it changed to a weird aspect ratio size and all is zoomed in on TV.
That dongle is collecting dust now.
UAU
I've decided to give a try and i'm just impressed! It was the cheapest i've found on ebay:
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/371043321886?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649
Not only came well packed on an impressive case as it does exactly what it says!
Tried our Note 2014 (605), iphone 5S and a toshiba laptop.
I advise you to just look at https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCrzaLjA1EiiBiYR4VKCoZpA
It works just like on the videos.
@ jpl69
Does it work for movies and gaming? How the range?
For gaming, just forget. At least half second gap, to much for gaming.
I have everything in my room, router tv/dongle pc, android, iphone so the range is about 3m.
For movies, youtube is awsome.

Do you need to use the EZcast app or you simply use the built-in screen mirroring function of the Note 2014?
You must use the EZCast , but just to trigger the mirror function on the device.
