2011-01-24 Thread Gorka Hernando
Hi,

The thing is what Andrew says. I am working with an sticker always
connected to the mobile phone, so once the mobile detects the sticker
and reads it, is not possible to read it again unless I remove it and
stick it again (what obviously is not acceptable to me). What I want
to do is somehow whenever I start my application is to be able to read
the tag without having to remove it from the mobile phone.

The sticker is similar to these ones

Thanks and regards

There are links at the bottom of the page to the full source.  This is also
part of the platform sample code, so it is included with all of the other
sample code you can download.

Also of course you can always look at the actual code of the standard NFC
Tag app:

[android-developers] Re: NFC doubts. JSR 257 - 177

2011-01-18 Thread mduffy215
Has anyone been able to create a demo for NFC on Android 2.3?

The support from Google is incredibly lame:
http://developer.android.com/resources/samples/NFCDemo/index.html

The "demo" does not even give you the ability to download the source
code!!!

The demo is very generic and is not a working application.

In order to be a full demo developers must have access to a sample NFC
tag or reader.  Does anyone have any recommendations for a tag/reader
they have actually used in creating a demo for NFC on Android 2.3?

[android-developers] Re: NFC doubts. JSR 257 - 177

2011-01-18 Thread andrew
I think question #2 refers to a problem with NFC PushRegistry and Tag
reading on the current J2ME NFC Phones like the Samsung.

In those devices, an application can be automatically started by the
phone on a tag (PushRegistry), and that event arrives to the Midlet
via the Contactless API BUT in that event, there is no tag
data and it's UID and contents cannot be read. I've battled with that
in J2ME and there seems to be no way around it.

To read the UID/Contents of the tag that started the app (with the App
now started) you need to remove the tag and bring it close again,
creating a second tag event that arrives to the Midlet . this time
it arrives with UID and NDEF messages and they can be read...

So, I think question #2 is: Can I have my app automatically started
AND get the tag UID/contents with only one touch of the tag...?


On question #3, I have seen other posts here about Android from
"experts" who have uncommented functionality in the Android source
code to enable Card Emulation and other functionality not supported as
standard, but that's still way out of my league but if you really
need it and are fearless...search around and you should find others
who have/are doing that

2011-01-18 Thread Dominik
Try to answer your questions:

1) According to the spec of PN544 it can read MIFARE tags.
2) Just tested it on my device, and it seems that the tag is also
detected only once. This way, double-detection are prevented.
3) Access to a SE is not possible with the current Android APIs (but
PN544 will support it).
