NFC does not work with passive cards

I have an Xiaomi Mi Note 10 Pro phone, and there are some issue with NFC.
I can use it to pay at shops, or to interact with banking terminals. However, when I try to scan a card, nothing happens, and my phone don't see it, though, it had no problems with that before (maybe a year ago), and also another Xiaomi phone can read those cards with no effort.
Yesterday I was repairing my screen, and also looked at NFC antenna and pins, that are used for connecting it to the motherboard, but nothing wrong there too.
Maybe I'm missing some option in phone settings, that control that feature, and which I turned off with no purpose.
*P.S. No software modifications are applied to my phone, bootloader is locked and have never been touched.*

Cloning room key card by using NFC
I live in a youth hostel of an university and we access our rooms and labs by using a contactless key card. I want to clone my card to my phone. Is it possible to copy when it is key protected? Can it be hacked?

I've had "NFC service not working" continuously pop up on my Oukitel WP15. A couple of months ago, it started doing this.
I went through some of the troubleshooting steps that are listed in this forum, like trying to force-stop the app, and trying to disable it. I tried to clear the cache and all sorts of stuff, but none of it worked, it kept popping back up.
Then I downloaded an antivirus software (I think AVG), then it told me there was a corrupt app, that was an app for CDL testing. I deleted the app, the pop-up appeared again. I cleared the cache and the memory, and then I didn't see it again for 2 months.
Now it's back. I've since done a couple of things like deleted a couple of apps and then reset the phone, and then it went away for like a half day. Then it's back.
I have a lot of apps on my phone and folders. I don't want to have to restart my phone. Also, I don't even know a good app that will redownload all my other apps. I must have 200 to 300 apps on my phone.
What do I do?

When I put an NFC card near my Android 14 phone, a specific app (that I do not want being able to skim the data of every card I use with my phone) opens. Can I turn off "NFC read permission" for a specific app? This seems like a big security issue, and given that I can control camera, microphone, location, etc. permissions for specific apps, I'm surprised I haven't been able to find any information on preventing a given app from receiving NFC read info. I want to be able to use NFC via other apps, so turning it off entirely is not helpful.

I am trying to use µFR Nano Online wireless NFC RFID reader/writer, as extension of my Galaxy A54's NFC capability. ie. I want to be able to scan NFC tags around my home using 'NFC tools' app without taking my phone out of my pocket. i already have portable power unit to power the device but when I bluetooth the reader to my phone it stores tag UID in keyboard buffer instead of recognising it as a NFC tag.
How do I configure the device to function as I intend?
Cheers

I have the following hardware with software: - OnePlus 12 phone, model CPH2583: Android 14, OxygenOS CPH2583_14.0.0.802(EX01) - OnePlus Watch 2, model OPWWE231: Android 13, WearOS V6.0 I have NFC turned on my phone and watch, since I regularly use tap-to-pay and Google Wallet.

I have the following hardware with software:
- OnePlus 12 phone, model CPH2583: Android 14, OxygenOS CPH2583_14.0.0.802(EX01)
- OnePlus Watch 2, model OPWWE231: Android 13, WearOS V6.0
I have NFC turned on my phone and watch, since I regularly use tap-to-pay and Google Wallet. However, when I place my phone near my watch (for example, holding the phone in landscape with the hand that has my watch on it, leading to the NFC reader in the phone getting close to the watch), a "New tag collected" screen pops up:
I do not wish to turn off NFC on either device since I use both my phone and my watch for tap-to-pay. **Is there a way to turn off this pop-up?**

Trying to use ETEKJOY ACR122U to add NFC to non-NFC Android phones. How's about app: MTools - Mifare ACR122 PN532?
The Motorola MOTO G PLAY is one of the very last Android phones that gets delivered (by XFinity Mobile) with no NFC capability. And yes, of course, I've got one. After numerous updates it runs Android 13. So along comes Ticketmaster with an ALL-NFC TICKET system. Tickets get stored in GOOGLE-WALLET....
The Motorola MOTO G PLAY is one of the very last Android phones that gets delivered (by XFinity Mobile) with no NFC capability. And yes, of course, I've got one. After numerous updates it runs Android 13. So along comes Ticketmaster with an ALL-NFC TICKET system. Tickets get stored in GOOGLE-WALLET. Frankly I'd rather spend $35 for a USB connected ACR122U run through an app than drop $150 to upgrade the phone. And when I do swap out the phone, move the ACR122U and download its app. Minimize security and data vulnerabilities. But is the MTools - Mifare ACR122 PN532 app up to it ?

For early Android phones lacking NFC does the ACR122U 13.56MHz Contactless Smart Card Reader-Writer add usable NFC?

How to emulate a NFC card with an Android phone?
I have installed several "NFC tools" apps, and I am able to **read** a NFC door card. It seems to be able to duplicate it (when I'll have a blank NFC card) or even **write** new NFC tags. But I'd like to do something else: **How to make my Android device act as a NFC tag?** Example: since I can read...
I have installed several "NFC tools" apps, and I am able to **read** a NFC door card. It seems to be able to duplicate it (when I'll have a blank NFC card) or even **write** new NFC tags.
But I'd like to do something else:
**How to make my Android device act as a NFC tag?**
Example: since I can read and get the hexadecimal codes from my NFC door card, I'd like to make my smartphone *act as a NFC card*, so that, if I forget my door card, my smartphone could serve as a NFC tag.
How to do this?
PS: it is surely possible, because when paying with a smartphone ("contactless payment with phone"), the smartphone *acts as a NFC device indeed* for another reader (typically the shop credit card reader).

Setting a reminder for when you enter your car
Most of us have Android smartphones. At the same time, not all of us may have Android powered(/enabled) cars, but, may have to do something (such, as, check a note in the front drawer, or under the top light blocking panes, or do something next to the engine or other car part in the front hood, or g...
Most of us have Android smartphones. At the same time, not all of us may have Android powered(/enabled) cars, but, may have to do something (such, as, check a note in the front drawer, or under the top light blocking panes, or do something next to the engine or other car part in the front hood, or grab something in the back part of the car and give it to someone in the morning, or check the fueling components at the back or at the front, or clear the back seat, or something along these lines).
Google Keep has location reminders, but here we need something to remind us when we get in proximity of the car. And we may not be able to go to the car, because we may be busy or it may be snowing outside.
We want to set a reminder that kicks in as a notification next time we are in proximity of the car, perhaps also with a specific associated time or time interval in which that reminder will be active.
Does NFC do the job? Do I need to purchase a special NFC chip for my car, and how can I program it make the notification kick in when my phone is next to the car or when I enter the car. Can NFC be made to work this way?
How can I do this in Android?
Thank you for your contributions.
Thanks.

In my two devices, it not does show any option like 
Why is this so?
Use by default for this action or Always, while in my other device with Android 4.2.2, it shows the options.
Why is this so?

I read all kinds of things about this (notably Host-based Card Emulation, but also this answer from 2012 ) but in none of the discussions I saw a concrete answer to the question above for 2023 phones and Android version.

Phone: Cubot KingKong 5 Pro
Android 11, Security Update July 5.
A couple of days ago the phone "crashed" and restarted itself. It does that from time to time, at worst it did it once per week or so, now less, like once in one or two months.
After it was back up, I've been getting a "Nfc Service has stopped" dialog, like every 30-60 seconds. If I close the dialog, a new one appears soon. It makes using the phone quite hard as there is constantly that dialog blocking the screen.
App Info says the culprit is "Nfc Service", go figure. I have already disabled it, but that dialog seems to come anyway. I don't use nor need NFC (as far as I know).
If I go to Android Settings -> Connected devices -> Connection preferences -> NFC, I see only "Advanced settings", and clicking on it does nothing. Does this mean NFC is already disabled?
As said, I am fine if NFC is completely disabled, as long as those irritating notes go away. Is there anything I can do, besides resetting the whole phone? I'd rather try to avoid it because I have some apps I have to backup & restore manually, like a VPN token software (it has to be set up again whenever I either change phone or reset the phone), Whatsapp and MapFactor navigator POIs.

I would like to use NFC tags with NFC Task Launcher or AutomateIt , but every time I scan the tag, I get a popup asking for the application to use (I have a few NFC-related ones). I have a Samsung Galaxy S3 and a Galaxy Note 2.
There is no "always use this application" choice (similar to the ones I had when clicking on a link for the first time - which popped up an app panel with a choice of "this time only" or "every time").
Is there a way to force the assignment of an app to an event?
