NFC is checked but grayed out

[daviddavis83]

I have an android device with the 4.1.1 version operating system that I am having troubles with. I need to be able to use the nfc technology to read an RFID tag. When I attempt to use a software such as NFC tools I get an error saying the NFC is disabled. When I go to settings the box beside NFC is checked but it is grayed out. I would like to know what this means.

Welcome to the forums. What device do you have?

Did you change your battery recently (or the battery cover) ?
Because the most of time, the RFID antenna is in the battery cover.
