Has anybody made use of the NFC capabilities yet with the OX? if so how is it working?
How do you know what shops use it for payments etc?
I haven't used it yet because none of my friends have a phone with NFC, although my mum has the One X too so I'll try it with hers.
I tried to "Android Beam" a file to a friend yesterday, we both had NFC turned on, and when he selected the file (mp3), and chose the share option, he gets an option to send via NFC, however if i do the exact same thing on my phone i don't get the option to send via NFC?
Do you have to select the send via NFC option, or do you just hold both phones together and it will automatically send
Well, for some reason or another mine has now decided to start showing the "NFC Tapping" via share options on files i choose to send, although it then says it needs bluetooth turned on to send via NFC.
I thought this was a new way of sending files between phones, not just bog standard bluetooth!.......
And if i was to just Bluetooth the file i could sit anywhere in close proximity to the recieving phone, but to "beam" it, the phones literally have to be touching
FAIL.
NFC = Near Field Communications, which is why you have to be close
NFC is pretty pointless to me.
