I have a question about nfc - Networking

Sent from my SGH-M919 using xda app-developers app

I can turn on the nfc on my device and touch thr bavk of my phone to the back of another smartphone and even if thr other phone doesn't have data it can run off my data?Is that correct? Thanks

No. NFC is for sending files not tethering.

Thats what I thought.

Not only files, but for general exchange of information like credit card information, subscriber ID, passport picture, etc.
Wikipedia has a good article on the subject: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Near_field_communication

cannot download apps from playstore

I tried to look for this problem, but couldn't find anything relevant...
finally got my unlocked nexus 4 in the mail today!
was super excited, cut my existing t-mobile sim card (I'm on a contract with them) and was able to connect to their network.
the problem is that no matter what network i am on (wifi, 4g, 2g) i cannot download any apps from the play store. I click on 'install', it brings up the permissions window, i click on 'accept and download' and it tells me "[app_name] could not be downloaded due to an error. (Error retrieving information from server. [RPC:S-5:AEC-0]."
Also can't update any apps...
I am extremely confused.. has anyone encountered this problem?

Help backing up to pc

I need some help backing up my apps and everything else that should be backed up on my PC.

Are you rooted? Because if not, I can only help by backing up apk's of your apps to your computer.

Try Carbon app. It allows you to back up apps and their settings without root.
Here's a link to the Play Store page: https://play.google.com/store/apps/...gle&utm_medium=organic&utm_term=carbon+backup

I didn't like the fact that you have to pay for the premium version. Storage is through USB on the N4 otherwise.

Backup using Carbon, then transfer the backup files to your PC. Then when you're ready, copy them back and restore.
Besides, what's so bad about having to pay a few bucks for such a great app? All devs work hard to make the apps/mods/ROMs/kernels, etc that they do!

You have to search from the non-connected devices, not the S4
How do I do that?

Pull up WiFI on the device you want connect, and have the list of available networks displayed, your hotspot will be one of them.
Yeah then you click on it I did that and it kept telling me my password was wrong.

Verify your password on your S4 in the Hotspot options by checking the box for "Show Password"
Use WPA2 Security
Try again
If you're positive it's right, try it as an open network.
O.k. thanks!!!

Take out the sdcard and stick it in the pc with an adapter, maybe that works.
..
I haven't done a thing the phones literally a couple of weeks old

As gee2012 has said the only way to fix is get an adapter and plug into your pc. You can download image rescue software, Lexar and SanDisk both have versions.
