unfortunatelly wifi direct no working
I've succesfully sent music over the computer and Phone with wifi, not using any apps whatsoever.
You can do it with OfficeSuite WiFi Direct. Install OfficeSuite on both phones, then use the Share menu to send files over WiFi Direct with OfficeSuite.

I've officesuite that came with the phone pre-installed. But when I try to share via Wi-Fi Direct, I don't see any share option to do so. But the connection between the device is successful.
I don't quite understand, why does this require an app? Isn't this a native Android feature?

Yes. It works (shows in the share) after I opened the OfficeSuite once.
But why is this feature requires an app? Isn't this an standard Android feature? No common built-in share application?

There is no built-in sharing over WiFi Direct in Android. Might come later though.

Sorry, so what Samsung has implemented is their own method, which is why I'm not able to share with Samsung device via Wi-Fi direct, right?

You can use Photo Transfer App (avail on every platform)

Bro, I know we can transfer via few other ways. Wi-Fi direct has one of the fastest transfer rates and more over trouble-free if it can work.
I'm talking about couple of gigs video files to transfer from one device to another on the go! Any suggestions without third-party software?

Without 3rd party m not sure if its possible right now but try this: SUPERBEAM WiFi Direct (Click here for Marker Link)
With this you can simply scan the bar code and transfer huge data (I tried photos) - let me know !!
How does nfc work? My mates got. S4 and tried to send me a photo but it just sends me to a dead play store link.
Any tips on how to work with any device?

did you make it work? I tried the same thing but all I heard is the sound twice but nothing. Somewhere I read, you need to have the Bluetooth on but didn't help...

I use "send!" from the app store which uses nfc to make a wireless connection so you have much better speed. But if you want to use pure nfc just install "Android Beam" and you can send things through nfc to others even if they don't have the app. Under share it will pop up with the app that allows you to send it.

Doh, I guess android beam is now baked in so just let the devices connect and it will auto share the content, as I said I use send!. Here's the official tutorial https://support.htc.com/en-uk/005-HTC_One/0G0/040
The s4 has to have s-beam off and nfc on then it'll work.

It really is feasible! You just need more time !
WiFi direct doesn't work on cm10.1 and won't work !
I have successfully done that using a mobile hotspot established by "hotspot control" (Play Store) together with an FTP client/server combination.
Did you try Fast File Transfer?

+1 to Fast File Transfer. Works on CM, very easy to use, does its job very quickly.
Hi all,
I just wondering how exactly to use this features on my HTC One. Does anybody use it successfully ? I cannot do that. I tried sometimes to send files with WiFi direct but it does not appear neither in gallery and music! ;(

I dont think that you can beam files from phone to phone via wifi. with NFC it works but its a bit buggy.

But is was possible between S2 and S3... And how to do that with NFC ? Some guide or something else like that ?
Is only one option the bluetooth ? I mean without thirdparty app.
Thanks beforehand!

Same question here. I tried using NFC also but it is not working for me. I enabled it from settings. Any other setting required? First I thought its a hardware problem in my handset.
Have you tried using SuperBeam from the mkt? Works fine for me between my HTC One and an N4 - transferred a large video file pretty quickly between the two even though there was no wifi network/router available nearby
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.majedev.superbeam
for NFC share, this is what HTC says https://support.htc.com/en-au/010-HTC_One/0G0/040

Thanks. SuperBeam successfully transfer one mp3 from S3 to One but it was impossible do it from One to S3.. I will try again tomorrow.
About thr NFC when i try to send imahe or music the S3 opens Playstore and says the item is not found!
I cannot understand where exact is the problem. As I said already it was VERY easy to transfer from S2( one of the best phone I have ever had) and S3...
PS: I love my ONE !

WiFi direct isn't working on any of our custom Roms, as far as I know. However, a good substitute is Software Data Cable https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.damiapp.softdatacable, it works like WiFi direct. You'll need to install this on both devices, this app can also transfer files between your Android and PC.

i meant, how do you use it, is it by qr code or ip address?
FTP. It works similar to WiFi direct and Bluetooth. 1 device starts a share network using its own WiFi hotspot, the other picks up the hotspot and joins the network. Then you get a browser to share files at good speed.
This does not use your data. If you're worried about it, you can turn off your mobile network and try it.
