handled the android.nfc.action.TRANSACTION_DETECTED event

[Usman]

I am struggling to handle android.nfc.action.TRANSACTION_DETECTED
event. The device is NFC and also contains secure element which
supports SWP to the UICC.
I have registered the following BroadCast receiver in my app.
public class TransactionReceiver extends BroadcastReceiver {

private String TAG = "TransactionReceiver";

@Override
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
Log.d(TAG, "Transaction performed ...");

}

}

Below is my manifest.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
package="com.mycompany.android.nfc.uicc.test"
android:versionCode="1"
android:versionName="1.0" >

<uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="10" />

<application
android:icon="@drawable/ic_launcher"
android:label="@string/app_name" >
<activity
android:name=".AndroidUiccTestActivity"
android:label="@string/app_name" >
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />

<category
android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>

<receiver
android:name=".TransactionReceiver"
android:enabled="true" >
<intent-filter>
<action
android:name="android.nfc.action.TRANSACTION_DETECTED" />
</intent-filter>
</receiver>
</application>

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.NFC" />
</manifest>

I am not receiving the broadcast event when I present the device on
the contactless reader. Could anyone point out if I am missing
anything or if following the right route.
The android.nfc.action.TRANSACTION_DETECTED is hidden from the google
api but can found at http://www.androidjavadoc.com/2.3/android/nfc/NfcAdapter.html#ACTION_TRANSACTION_DETECTED.

thanks in advance

Hii

Add the DEFAULT Category as well in the Intent filter , i think it will
work out for you

<action
android:name="android.nfc.action.TRANSACTION_DETECTED" />
<category android:name=""android.intent.category.DEFAULT " />
</intent-filter>

Well i am also working in NFC making applications on Google Nexus S ... I
think you are also working in card Emulation mode..
can you give me some pointers how to go ahead with Card Emulation
applications , actually i am struggling to get the things up.

cheers
