I believe most models (US) shipped with NFC, but most carriers (in the US at least) disabled it.
i have the t989 for tmob...the nfc works fine i just wish there were more uses for it
afaik, european S II GT-I9100P comes with NFC ... so if you want a european NFC version, you could try to find a GT-I9100P (e.g orange in France and TIM in Italy ).
...not sure which roms will work ....perhaps the same as on the GT-I9100T ...
Hmm, I think there is a nfc version for Europe -> the P version AND an Australian version with nfc- > the T version.... :what:
And Btw. AFAIK they changed the naming of the i9100G to i9100 in April/mai... Because nobody wanted a I9100G.... What a mess!

Ok wait wait, let me clarify.
i9100 = NO
i9100P = YES (it's an i9100 exactly, but with NFC. ROMs for i9100 will work, but need to be modified to show NFC settings, otherwise no NFC options will show)
i9100G = NO, it's completely different from the i9100 hardware (TI-OMAP instead of Exynos). ROMs from i9100/P don't work.
T989 (T-Mobile GS2) = YES, but it's completely different from the i9100 hardware (Snapdragon S3 instead of Exynos). ROMs from i9100/P don't work.
i777 (AT&T GS2) = YES* , stock ROMs disable it. ROMs from i9100 work because they're the same phone (it's really an i9100P because it has NFC) but you need to modify button layout or the buttons won't work in the ROM.
D710 (Sprint GS2) = NO
So my question to you is if stock roms disable NFC on the i777 then why did my box say that it is NFC equipped and I was able to use it stock?

my sgh-i777 has no indication of NFC on the box and was unusable stock. It does say "Near Field Communication" on the battery but I was only allowed to read some tags with a custom rom a while back. I'm on AOKP now and haven't tried anything with NFC as I gave up on it a while ago.
Is NFC fully functional on your i777?

My sgh-i777 obviously came with it but turned off from carrier att. But I've been using nfc since gingerbread a dev entropy got it working back on 2.3.4 release from att. However the problem we do have is the lack of secure element which is why we can't use Google wallet for instance. Theirs been alot of debate over the secure element factor but besides that its fully functional.

The i777 is really an i9100P (European I9100 with NFC). So yes it should fully work on a ROM that supports it.

Great info.
My brother just got the Nexus 7 and I was able to Beam a site I was browsing on chrome to him (I'm running AOKP btw). So it does work
But he tried to beam me a picture and it said the other device doesn't support receiving large files via beam ?
So now I know that my nfc works, what cool things can I do?
