I've tried using Tasker and Trigger, none of them can read the nfc tag in the ring.
When i pop the back off the phone and expose the battery i can read the ring only if i force it into the battery. Nothing happens if the back is on the phone, even if i hold the ring in the same spot. So it works, but it's weak, especially considering the Alpha was supposed to work with the S4 like any normal ring.
Phone? Galaxy S4
Using a case? Nope
Phone works with other NFC tags? Yes
Ring: Alpha
Size: 10.5
So right out of the box the NFC control app won't recognize the ring, no matter how slow i move it over the back of the phone, the spare tag won't read either. I've uninstalled tasker and the controll app, restarted the phone and re-installed the controll app to no avail.
The ring i got was also the wrong color. Black instead of wood, which I don't really mind, I just thought i'd mention it in case that was important
Any input on how to get this working would be greatly appreciated.
