wifi direct?

[verminatorno5]

Is WiFi direct still broken? I tried receiving a video from my friend with an s3 but it wouldn't Work.

Was he using S-Beam? If so it's not compatible.

Ok,what exactly does wifi direct do ? I read it as you basicly share your wifi connection with another phone. ? Am i wrong.?

Wifi direct is a standard. A new extension of the wifi standard.

It's a way to share files and stuff from phone to phone using a direct wifi connection. No need for a network connection of any kind.

Don't think so, he turned on WiFi direct and attempted to send a video but nothing happened.

I tried with a friend's S3 too. With S-beam on then off. With market apps. With file managers. It never worked.
Using Bluetooth. Old school.
