[Q] NFC Unlocking - G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have played around with NFC-tags and tried to download some apps to get a nfc tag to unlock the Screenlock but it seems like NFC is inactive in screenlock mode... Does anyone know a way around this?

I believe there is a way to do this through tasker, but I haven't a link to it I'm sorry
Edit. Look at this, although for the note 2. The tasker but should be the same

I believe there is an Xposed module for NFC with screen on/off options etc

The problem is that it seems NFC is OFF in lockscreen.. because the phone doesnt make a sound when i show a tag in lockscreen...
But thanks!

Try the xposed module, if you're rooted and see if that works

Yes. I had to do that too. But I did contact them. Also lowered my rating and put in a review.

[Q] Notifications On Screen

OK, another noob question...when you get a message and your phones idle with a black screen is there a way to get the messages/notifications to pop up on the screen like the iphone so I dont have to unlock it to have a quick look. Its nice to be able to see whether I need to pick up the phone or whether it can wait?? (rather that just a beep)
Natively? If there is it would be in your SMS applications settings

[Question]How to change Installed Apps name?

Hi xda forum, I wonder is there anyway to edit away our installed apps without using launcher or apktool? Like a application that will do the job cause I hate the long name text been joining togather and blur.
Anyone know any apps can do this renaming of installed apps name?
Are you rooted?? I believe exposed has a module that you can install.

I'd like that when a press vol+ on my bluetooth earphone the camera of my nexus 5 will take pic.
Is there a way to get this using some app or changing something in the file system?
Check out Tasker. You may be able to do something like that with it.

Move from Scrapbook to Gallery?

Hello all,
Does anyone know if it is possible to export images that have been stored in the Scrapbook and store them in the Gallery?
Thanks,
Ackoman
Go to scrapbook, Tap on image you want to save. It will open separate. Now press and hold and saving options will pop up.

Hmmm, can't get that to work, tapping an image in scrapbook doesn't do anything for me.

Yep tried that too. It works with some things in my scrapbook but not others, even though I acquired them in the same manner ("image clip").
