Bluetooth.

Butterfly visible to nearby Bluetooth devices.

6. If asked, accept the pairing request on HTC Butterfly and on the sending device.

You may also be prompted to enter the same passcode or confirm the auto-

then tap Import. The vCalendar is added to your Calendar events.

For a vCard contact file, you can choose to import one, several, or all of those
