Hi, does anyone know how to get NFC working on AOKP? Or is it just not possible? The AOKP thread seems indecisive.
It's working, at least look in the rom before you ask these things

Where should I look in the ROM?
If you're talking about the option under Settings > More... > NFC,
the option is there, but NFC still doesn't work.
That's why the Tags app doesn't show up even though it's installed and third party apps aren't able to pick up my ORCA card, even though they can on Glory.

NFC in fact does work otherwise it would not be in the rom

Better not ask in the thread bro. I'm certain NFC should work. Also this is probably the response you'll get:
"You are the only one out of thousands that has that issue. FULL WIPE"
Task, making everyone with an issue feel special.

Task is exactly right though, if you're the only one with an issue wipe first and ask questions laterBetter not ask in the thread bro. I'm certain NFC should work. Also this is probably the response you'll get:

My apologies for not clarifying.
I Odin'd back to stock, rerooted, installed CMW, full wiped, installed AOKP + GApps; same story:
Tags app doesn't show up, NFC doesn't seem to work with 3rd party apps.
So here's what I've done so far (yes, full wipes between every flash):
After AOKP, flashed Phone-Bricker - NFC worked fine.
ShirShir - NFC worked fine.
Reflashed AOKP.
Tried flashing NFCEnabler Patch over AOKP. The Tags app magically started appearing, the option to turn on NFC under Settings > More... disappears.
If anyone's had this issue or knows something I should try next, I'd really appreciate it thanks!

Did you figure out what was wrong? I think I have the same issue, came from stock and did a full wipe to AOKP 7.3.2012 w/newest GApps and flashed Siyah 3.4.3
I enabled NFC in the settings. I have the "Tags" app in my manage apps so I can delete it (but can't figure out how to launch it, if I need to).
I tried testing on 4 blank Type 2 Ultralight C tags but it does nothing with both NFC Task Launcher and TagWriter
I suppose I should flash a different ROM to make sure that it is software and not a bad tag(s)/nfc battery?

Hey, thanks for your response, but NFC is working for me now as of build 7.3
Oh grats man. So its just me then....dang it I hate being special lol. So do you run the Tags app from app drawer or is it a background service?
I guess I'll reflash the ROM. Not sure how I managed to screw this up. I mean I started with a full wipe and everything...

Yeah not sure how that happened to me either. I use the TagWriter app from the PlayStore. Seems to work for me.
Well I never figured out what my issue was lol
I full wiped and flashed 7.3.2012 with siyah kernel twice. Didn't work so I full wiped + flashed 7.1.2012. Also didn't work so I bought 2 more NFC batteries in case that was a problem (my first nfc battery was made in china not korea). Still didn't work, bought 5 more NFC tags to test on, didn't work. Used nfc tasklauncher, tagwriter, and taginfo but none picked up the tags
Flashed SHOstock2 v3.1.2 and it worked instantly -_-

Right, it might not work for you just because of angry clouds.

haha yeah I just figured AOKP and I arn't meant to be.
I'm glad there are so many other roms for our phone though. Love that I have choices.
