What... No...

How you determine that NFC is not working?

What you need for NFC...

Tags (of course!)

Phone with NFC support

Liveware Manager / Smart Connect app (NFC application)

Try enabling NFC in the Settings > Wireless and something menu...

Next, download the LiveWare Manager app from Google Play Store...

Depending on your Android version, you will either have LM (2.3+) or SC (4.0+)...

Check whether you get these and report back for further instructions...

Trubo

Check the NFC test in the service menu.

*#*#7378423#*#* > Service tests > NFC.

If it fails I suggest that you contact your local support team to check how to proceed.

Tried

Nothing happens when I "place it close to a tag"

It's already been in and out of servicing 2 times, and everytime it comes out with some new kind of problem... Is there any way I can get the set REPLACED not repaired? Cos I'm really tired and I don't think this set is gonna work fine ever.
