[MOD][Xposed] Disable "New tag detected" for empty NFC tags

MohammadAG · Oct 8, 2013

Requires Xposed Framework!

The "New tag detected" message shows when an NFC tag is scanned that's either empty or contains some plain text.

This module disables that message if the tag is empty. This is useful if you want to have an empty tag that'll automate something with Llama or AnyTAG, or to unlock your device using NFC (module coming soon for 4.2+ devices).

Compatibility:
Any device with NFC and 4.1+

Source:
The mod is open source: https://github.com/MohammadAG/Xposed-Disable-NFC-Tag-Empty

Download from Xposed Repository:

I read I need this mod for NFCunlock. But once I apply this mod, how do I get an app to recognize a new tag?

It doesn't affect that. In fact what this does is simply call finish() for that activity, almost the same as pressing back. Anything deeper than that may not work across all ROMs.

Doesn't seem to work on Galaxy Note 3

Using on stock rom on Galaxy Note 3, doesn't seem to work. Tried after erasing a few tags using "NFC Task Launcher" and still getting the message "New tag scanned". Yes I've rooted, installed xposed and the module and rebooted.

Can you post a screenshot of what you get?

I'm hoping this will get updated to work on 4.3+ soon. Your NFC Unlocking module works great but constantly triggers this screen immediately after unlocking.

It doesn't work on Note3. And the nfc unlokcer is really cool! If it does work, cooler.hah~

This should already work on 4.3. The code hasn't changed since 4.1: http://grepcode.com/file_/repositor.../apps/tag/TagViewer.java/?v=diff&id2=4.1.1_r1

Can someone post a relevant logcat?

Any chance of an ICS friendly version or is there some technical reason it won't work with 4.0.1?

I updated my Nexus 7 to stock KitKat and figured this out. CyanogenMod didn't suffer from this.
Some builds have a different package name for the viewer. This is fixed in 1.1.

1.1.1 has a lower SDK version, so this should work fine now.
I always set a higher SDK version since I have no ICS devices.

I'm getting a "There is a problem parsing the package" when tapping the apk, is it just me? I've downloaded it a few times to make sure.

First of all, THANK YOU FOR THE AWESOME NFC UNLOCKING MODULE!!

I use it on both my Note II and my Nexus 7, my problem is that this other module, "Disable new tag detected", does not work on my Note II (and my Nexus but that is expected as it is on KitKat and if I am not mistaken 4.4 is unfortunately not supported by this module).

Might that be because I am using Samsung TecTiles..? I don't have any other "generic" one to try at the moment.

BTW, for anyone in the same boat as me my workaround is to set it to do something which doesn't affect me (turn driving mode off or, for some other tag, to go to the launcher, Nova Prime) and disabling notifications for the Samsung TecTile app.

So not a biggie... and thanks again for NFC unlocking, I LOVE IT since I first saw it at the Moto X launch!!

Can you open the APK with Root Explorer and check if the AndroidManifest file has a min SDK of 14?

You're welcome!
This should work fine on the Note II, I haven't tested it but it worked fine on the S4. I'll test it on a Note 2 tomorrow.
KitKat support is there, I forgot to update the URL in the first post, but it works fine on my Nexus 7. Stock 4.4 of course.
NFC tag type is irrelevant here, I simply check whatever the app is checking to show the empty text.

Thank you and please let me know if there is something I may do to make it work on both of them (especially on the Note II)!

My Note II is an unlocked carrier-free N7100 and runs the latest stock JB 4.1.2 (XXDME6) and only has root (no custom kernel, no custom recovery). The Launcher is Nova Prime.

My Nexus 7 2013 is a Wi-Fi 32GB one with stock KitKat 4.4 + ElementalX kernel 2.2 and root. The Launcher is the Nexus 5's one (AKA "G.E.L.", enabled by the well known Google apk).

Check with the Nexus 7 again, be sure to have the latest 1.1.1 version of this module installed. It should work fine as is

Yes everything is up-to-dated to the latest version

On the Nexus 7 I have Xposed 2.4.1, App Settings 1.6, Gravity Box 2.7.6, Disable NFC tag empty message 1.1.1, NFC Lock screen off enabler 1.9.7.2.

On the Note II I have Xposed 2.4.1, App Settings 1.6, MW Apps manager 1.0, Disable NFC tag empty message 1.1.1, NFC Lock screen off enabler 1.9.7.2.

It looks like you've updated the download link since I last tried? It's a different version which happily works now on the Intel platform. Thank you Mohammad.

Hi MohammadAG,

I'm using this module on a Nexus 5 running 4.4.2 in addition to the NFCLOckScreenOffEnabler. I'm experiencing a problem with this module using a xperia smarttags.
When I scan the tag a window opens reading "New Tag detected" semc://liveware.../smarttags.

Correct me if I'm wrong: this module should prevent this, right?

Thanks for your various projects/contriubutions

Are you using the very latest apk, com.mohammadag.disablenfctagempty_v3_ce8067.apk? Have you enabled the mod within the framework AND restarted the phone?

I've installed the module through the xposed installer app. I rebooted the phone a couple of times. I've even tried to remove the module and reinstall it.

Nothing happened. Is there any way to debug if the module is doing something? The module is getting loaded as I can see it in the log of the xposed installer app.
@MohammadAG any clues? Thanks in advance for the support given by this community.
