Adjusting Bluetooth settings

You can use Bluetooth to exchange information between your smartphone and
other mobile devices.

Bluetooth connections

For all Bluetooth settings, open the Applications menu and tap Settings >
Bluetooth

discoverability. Tap SEARCH FOR DEVICES to scan for available devices.

To connect to a device, tap the device in the list of available devices. You may be
asked to enter a PIN on both devices to establish the connection.

Near Field Communication

Your device contains a Near Field Communication (NFC) chip that enables it to
communicate with other NFC devices to send and receive tags such as contact
information, text messages, and URLs.

To enable NFC, open the Applications menu and tap Settings > More... > NFC.
The box next to NFC will have a blue check when turned on.

Note: To send or receive tags your phone must be powered on and not in sleep mode.

Note: Your phone may require a third-party application to communicate with other NFC
devices. Search Google Play for available applications or contact the NFC device’s
vendor for more information.

When this feature is turned on, you can beam app content to another NFC-capable
device by holding the devices close together. For example, you can beam Browser
pages, Youtube videos, People contacts, and more.

Just bring the devices together (typically back to back) and then touch your screen.
The app determines what gets beamed.

To turn Android Beam on, in the Applications menu tap Settings > More... >
