Not there. Airplane mode, VPN, tethering, mobile networks.
This also clean install and NFC worked fine under hyperdrive 13
Not really sure. I have it under the tether option for my settings

Do you have a lot of places that accept Google wallet around you. My area has one so I have held off on wallet for now.

Running Superlite 5.0 I have the app downloaded but it says not supported
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using XDA
It's not supported on any ROM.
The phone is lacking a secure element and Google Wallet should not be used on any phone that is rooted.
Rooted phones will get an "Unsupported device" message.
i downloaded this http://www.modaco.com/topic/354635-region-device-root-patched-google-wallet-apk-11-r67-v12/ and copied to /system/app and changed permissions. i gets far but it gets stuck on "activating account". i then read i should change ro.product.model, ro.product.name, ro.product.device to htc_jewel in build.prop which i did. cleared data for google wallet, cleared cache and dalvik cache in cwm. and i get the same results. anybody else get it working?
To my understanding it won't work on any non sprint phone per some contract
With that said, even those phones apparently don't work with Google wallet..

You are free to try, but it will NOT work. Believe me. I work for the company who supplies the Trusted Service Manager (TSM) for the Google Wallet. Our software sends the credit card data from the bank to the mobile device and stores it on the Secure Element. Without a Secure Element, you cannot have a NFC Wallet.
However, the Skyrocket DOES have NFC and can use a Secure Element on the SIM card. The best hope of a NFC wallet for our device is Isis.

Hey guys anyone know some good settings for android Wi-Fi tether 3.1 to work on the charge..
I saw somewhere to use fascinate as the device profile and change to digital for Samsung, but that has never worked for on any 3.1 versions, so Ive used 2.0.7 since I found Wi-Fi tether...
If anybody could help me I would greatly appreciate it thanks

Uncheck wifi driver reload and choose the Droid Charge profile. Make sure you uncheck that box though, otherwise you'll have to reboot to get wifi back.

One big advantage I see is that the new version is in the Play Store, so no more bother with sideloading. It'll autoupdate this way as well.
So Verizon is allowing us to download that version? Sounds fishy don't you think?

I understand Play Store is Google. I had the impression that carriers can block certain apps from appearing in the Play Store. When I was on sprint they blocked wireless tether app. I'm probably wrong about Verizon.

Google had pretty much blocked all tethering apps from the Market for a while, but they've started popping back up again. Not sure why the change in policy, unless they've just decided to stop letting the carriers dictate their internal policies.

I use Wifi Tether and I don't have to reboot either. It's as simple as unchecking a box in the config. I don't trust FoxFi. Anything that uses the built in tethering is going to automatically be easier to detect than something like Wifi Tether or Open Garden.

I noticed on GSM ARENA the specs for the Skyrocket phone say it has NFC.
So I got really excited, but then when I tried to use it, I realized it does not, in fact work.
ATT apparently marked it as not-present and disabled it. (Two problems.)
Anyhow, I found out how to enable it, and I wrote a quick Android App to verify it is present.
I did take a chance and used the Note hack as the model numbers were very close to being the same. I theorized the hardware was mostly the same, excepting the screen.
I searched and apparently nobody has announced doing this before.
The thread used was here:

I read ICS has a bug where it can't initialize NFC tags.
This candhelp people on 3.x get their NFC working.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using XDA
NFC in the Skyrocket is on a chip inside the unit itself. Only the antenna for the NFC chip is located on the battery.
NFC was disables by AT&T in stock GB builds, however some custom ROMS, such as Alien, enabled it.
The 4.0X ICS releases (leaks) for the skyrocket have fully functioning NFC capabilities.
Specific phones did (or maybe) still do have an NFC bug (Verizon's Nexus) phone couldn't handle certain types of formatted tags, but the SkyRocket hasn't had this or any other problem NFC related that I am aware of.
I'm writing an NFC application.
I'll plan to upgrade to Alien in the near future. Sounds like fun.
Just the thought of putting a tag on the nightstand, in the car, ... I can do so much with it, but none the apps out there (even Samsung TecTiles App and NFC Task Launcher) do what I want to do. Not that I can run TecTiles on my phone version.
I'm currently running SKY ICS 4.2F-3B with the UCLE2 radio.
I use NFC tags in the car, at work and at home with an app called NFC Task Launcher.

It's very close range by the nature of NFC itself. Depending on if you have a case on the phone, and which case it is, you might need to actually hold the phone to the tag and keep it there for a second. Stock NFC in the skyrocket, regardless of which ROM, gives an audible tone when reading a tag. A file is floating around XDA that will disable the tone, but it is nice to know if the tag was read correct or if there was an error.
How are you guys able to get the NFC to work? I can enable it but when I use NFC apps I get a secure settings needed.

Are you using apps that require secure settings (secure eliment)? If so, it has nothing to do with NFC, it has to do with the app.

I tried this on mine, and it didn't work oh well, guess I'll wait for the the official ICS update.
I was wondering why my version of Google search doesn't include Google now (with the cards). I have a nightly of cm10 installed with the 10-11 gapps.
My friend has a full version with cm10 on an HTC phone. Is it just the current development of cm10 on the s3 doesn't support the cards?
Thanks
It has google now. You must have messed up. Check the settings in the google search menu. You might not have opted in yet

You have a nightly with gapps that are a month old? That could be your issue. If you're running a month old rom, then you most definitely will be missing features. I'd advise you to update your rom, and also you can update google search from the play store as well.

No, I think you misunderstood me. I am running the 11/7 nightly of CM10 with the 10/11 version of gapps. As far as i can tell the 10/11 gapps are the most current on goo.im unless I'm missing something.
Also apparently it asks you to opt in to the Google Now service when you first launch it, but I never remember getting that
If you tap on the microphone on the search widget you will be directed to the search app. In there hit the menu button to go to settings. Now turn on Google Now.
I get voice, search, and privacy settings. No obvious settings in any of them that would fix the issue

I'm running VBRLJ1 leaked ROM and it appears I only have Google Search. I see nothing about Google Now anywhere. I've gone through all location settings, web history, etc.. it's all open for google to track me.
I also only get cards when I search for things. No option to "see more cards" or "see sample cards".
Basically I don't have Google Now and this surprises me. Anyone know of a fix for the leaked VBRLJ1 folks? I'm unrooted at the moment.
Thanks.
Same here on CM10. I'm beginning to think it's my university gapps account that is the problem. What kinds of Google accounts do you guys have?

I'm having the most random issue no matter the ROM. On LTE I usually hit 40mbp/s down and 15mbp/s up and every single app uses this just fine...except for Facebook. I have to use WiFi for Facebook otherwise only about %25 of whatever page I'm on loads. The WiFi in the house is 3/1.5 so nowhere near as fast as LTE.

I am having this exact same issue. Facebook only works on WiFi. If I am on 4G I get tons of authentication issues. Only half of my news feed and profile will load on 4G. I have used Odin and went back to stock, uninstalled/reinstalled Facebook, and tried different radios. I called Verizon about this and they have no idea what is wrong. They are supposed to send the issue to the network team and then call me back.
I did notice that Facebook thinks I am in Cheyenne, WY instead of Pittsburgh, Pa. If you log into Facebook on a computer you can look at your active sessions. It shows devices and locations. If I log in while on WiFi it reports that I am in Pittsburgh.
This is a very bizarre issue. Does anyone have any ideas as to what could be causing the issue? It seems like a network issue to me.
