Change the NFC sound

FAMOCO devices allow you to change or disable the sounds emitted when an NFC event occurs.

Feature description

Three events can exist when reading an NFC tag:

  • Start event : when a NFC tag starts to be detected by the NFC Antenna
  • Error event : when an error occurs during the NFC tag initial reading
  • End event : when the initial reading of an NFC tag was successful

Each event can be modified independently of the others.

The NFC sound should be created as an OGG media file.

Those sounds should be created on the following locations of the device:

  • /data/local/nfc-start.ogg
  • /data/local/nfc-end.ogg
  • /data/local/nfc-error.ogg

These instructions require:

  • to have a FAMOCO device available
