I was just checking out NFC on my One with my Samsung Galaxy Axiom. Everything seemed to work fine except the ability to receive pics. When the pic on the Axiom shrunk and I pressed it to beam, The HTC One recognizes it but then goes to the Play store and displays the message "Item not found...Retry"
have anyone else encountered this issue or know of a fix for this?
I experienced the same on an S4. I could send a picture but not receive one. Was sent to the play store. I installed a few nfc apps and still was unable to receive.

I may call HTC about this...they advertise it and recognize it as though you can send pics via NFC to any device, they both must have NFC and have it turned on.
This is not a big deal breaker for me, but I am a little upset about it. When I had my S4 (that I traded for the One) it worked great sending and receiving pics via nfc.
oh well, hopefully some more people can chime in...
Thanks for replying
I couldn't send or receive anything by NFC between phones until I installed and used superbeam (really any NFC app should work though). From my understanding the trouble with built in NFC apps is that they seem to be proprietary. So a galaxy will communicate very well with another galaxy, and nexus 4's are buddies, but they don't mix between brands in my experience. But again third party apps can solve the issue.

I'm going to agree. there's never a problem while sharing files with same manufacturer. I have Xperia S and I can easily share pictures and files with another Xperia device. But when I try same with Galaxy S2 Galaxy S3 or even Galaxy S4, they don't even recognise that something is about to shared.
I'm not so sure about superbeam
if your phones basic configuration doesn't allow you to share files than how would a third-party application can override and send files ?
Superbeam is a neat app, however thats not what I was talking about. With superbeam you have to be one WiFi ..this WiFi direct.
I'm trying to receive pics via nfc. I can send them fine.

All you have to do is enable NFC on the phone to enable it, which the OP did so the phone was ready. Superbeam doesn't website anything, it's just a client that allows you to utilize NFC. The phone just needs a universal client like that.

You can't transfer anything by just NFC, it can't support high enough teacher rates. NFC is only the initial communication between devices that sets up the transfer, then either bluetooth or wifi direct MUST take over to do the actual transfer. So really there's no other way to do it, that's just how NFC works regardless of which so you use.
Also (just in case you were curious) wifi direct is not really the same thing as wifi. A wifi direct connection is a temporary private network between just the 2 devices that fits not require either to be connected to an Internet wifi network. So the transfer doesn't occur through the Internet. Think of it like bluetooth but with higher transfer speeds

Right ...I understand that. However on devices, that I used to when I sent /received pics which was Galaxy Devices and Sony devices as well as Motorola Devices. When I used those devices, I did notice that Bluetooth was automatically turned on and used in order to send the pic via nfc.
Which is fine. But what I'm coming to the conclusion of is that HTC devices do not receive pics from other devices. However they are able of sending them...which is kinda strange to me.

I can't say what the issue you're specifically experiencing is, but I can personally confirm that that my One can receive things using this. I just did it last week by using wifi direct established by NFC. I do definitely think it's weird if you really can't receive though...
Sorry, but why do you think superbeam won't work? I don't mean to push it on you but it did exactly what you are looking for.

Maybe I'm doing something wrong but with SuperBeam don't you pick files you want to send, then a QR code is made then the other person scans the QR Code and it downloads the files to their device...is that how it superbeam do it

Oh haha I understand what's going on, I had the same damn confusion you have to browse the file on your phone (outside of superbeam), select share, and select superbeam from the options. That will then open superbeam and allow you to start the transfer. For example, to share a picture browse it in gallery. And if you can line up the phones just right you can use NFC instead of the QR Code
Nope, you just have to have your wifi active but it does not have to be connected to anything. It will make is own network to connect to for the transfer. No Internet required

Psst... Remember that sending files using NFC such as photos requires android 4.1 and above. On devices on or higher than 4.1, beaming a file should initiate a Bluetooth pairing and transfer automatically.

I've just tested the NFC with One and Nexus7 and it works fine.
You don't need bloetooth or Wi-Fi to be enabled to receive or send the file.
The only thing that you have to do is not to move the devices. If that happens during the transfer then the upload will be aborted and you'll get the store message.

You know what I found funny? They were supposed to support the EVO 4G LTE at some point, and never did. I could never get it to show up in a search from the Market. But now, I searched for it with the HTC One, and there it is. And I can download it, but can't use it. It says it's unsupported. I really wish I could have this back.
I'd like to play with this, but I'll probably never actually use it. I don't know other Sprint users with or who would have direct connect. It's unfortunate Sprint has made this feature so exclusive that it's basically killed the feature.
It's made it exclusive to the **** phones they sell. Should be available for the high-end phones as well.
Anyone else having problems using this? The one under the Wi-Fi Settings.
I also tried using Super Beam transferring between 2 HTC One's and did not work. Not sure if this is related.
Thanks.
Nope, I did exactly that last week and it worked perfectly
Did you get any error messages or just nothing happened? I couldn't get the NFC part to work but the qr code established a wifi direct connection fine.

Yes that's right.
Forgive me if I'm missing something, but I don't think you can "use" wifi direct by its self. It's just a temporary network between 2 devices to transfer information, so you need some kind of app to send/receive the information (like superbeam). That option under wifi is just to enable it on the phone.

Is Wifi Direct the equivalent to S beam on the S3/S4? If so, how do I use it? I tried playing with it along wiht a coworker who also has a HTC One, and can't figure it out.

Hi pals. It's been 3 years I'm buying HTC and have had awesome time with them. I'm THE ONLY ONE in my family and friends with HTC and all others buy Samsung.
WiFi Direct didn't work on my One X and I'm really VERY disappointing to know that it doesn't work on One too. All Samsung phones around me have built-in WIFI DIRECT option when they try to share a pic or a video. We don't have anything in our 'share' menu.
I tried using FAST FILE TRANSFER app on my phone. It works like a charm on any phone and transfer 1gig of data within 5 minutes. BUT it's not for me AGAIN! I ran the app and the error came up saying, "wifi hotspot not working on your device. This is how it is implemented in the OS and don't rate the app bad."
I got outta app and turned hotspot on manually and guess what! NO OTHER MOBILE PHONE is able to connect to my HTC One's wifi hotspot. They find the network and get stuck on getting IP ADDRESS.
Wifi hotspot worked in previous devices. Instead of making other stuff work we now have a not-working-hotspot.
I really am a die hard HTC fan but how will HTC get users when they won't care for this petty issue. All samsung around me NEVER use BT unless they're to deal with me.
Is there any way I can use WiFi Direct and WiFi Hotspot on my One?
WiFi Hotspot, if works, will do the job for me because FAST FILE TRANSFER will solve WiFi Direct issue.

WiFi hotspot uses default hotspot and that doesn't work. I was able to transfer data with LAN but both devices should've ES EXPLORER right? I already use ES so this is convenient for me as long as I'm at home because we all use ES as a file manager. But the transfer speed is only ~2MBps.
As a work around at home I use SOFTWARE DATA CABLE app and that gives me around 5-7MBps speed. Still it needs to be on both devices.
So any of this isn't practically possible when I'm trying to transfer data to my colleague or friend.

I'm having a very similar problem. I've used my HTC One to tether its 3G to my laptop several times, but it suddenly stopped working. My MacBook can recognize the network and even connect to it (sort of) but it says "no internet connection". Furthermore, the WiFi direct apps also have stopped working (I'm guessing the issue might be related). I used to use an app called "Flash Transfer". I've tried several different apps from the Play store, none of them work. It just says "Connecting" and the finally gives up and fails.
This is really very frustrating, especially since I got it to work before. I don't know what changed!

The hotspot on this phone works just fine. It's something on your phone. Could be a hardware issue, you need to do a factory reset or reflash with your RUU. I have had no problems with my hotspot on my One, or on my One X.

It worked on 4.3. On the store demo phone, we had tested it to make sure it worked before the update and verified that it stopped working after.

I tested Skype. Seems ok to me. Then again I had uninstalled it and reinstalled it for something else prior to you saying something about it. Another thing I noticed with this update is that the 4G icon will disappear while on a call. I can still use data while on the call. It's just that before it let me know data was available. Now it was making me think that doing both wasn't an option anymore.

Turns out the Skype thing was because of the other device. As far as I can see, this update brought us only bad things. NFC not fully working, battery life sucks compared to 4.3... Only improvements are easy change of SMS default app and some visual improvements. I want my battery life back!

Does it give you an error message or just doesn't work? I'm assuming you have the NFC toggle set to on, right? Can you provide any specific details? Like does it make the sound effect at all? Any indication that it is at least trying to work?

It gives me an error message, NFC is on, and it works because it shows the error message when I touch both phones. It's very laggy, look at my thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2660552
