I'm trying to alter the functionality of the NFC library and want to test it on an Androidx86 virtualbox build. I have successfully seen the changes in a phone, which has NFC capabilities making it more straightforward. But I want to accomplish the same on an Androidx86, but when I make the same modifications to the AOSP (4.0.1) the NFC service is not running on the OS. The modifications I have made remove the need for NFC hardware (sounds strange I know, but I accomplish the same over other available protocols). I just want the NFC service to be running on the virtual box build.
I assumed the service was disabled due to typical usage of x86 machines not using NFC and hoped I could find it in the kernel menuconfig, but I did not see it as an option in the configuration. I am not sure that NFC libraries (maybe they are subsumed by another option?) would be at the kernel level, but where then would it determine to include it in the image or not? Any advice is appreciated. Thanks Bruce Beitman -- unsubscribe: android-kernel+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com website: http://groups.google.com/group/android-kernel
