Dears,
I'm really in need of a working WiFi direct for file transfer between phones which can't be done by Bluetooth due to heavy size of files. There is WiFi direct option available in settings but ain't available in the list of apps when I click on share via.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance

I think that your service provider does this.

Check file expert from store. It at least used to have a option to share via wifi when long pressing on a file.

I'm not sure about on Jellybean but ICS and under, all interphone dating fails. HTC implemented the specifications to make it all work incredibly poorly.
As you all know there is no WiFi Direct option available in Xperia S, so I found an alternative to it which is an app called Super Beam which gives the same speed as WiFi Direct and is actually a lot simpler to use than WiFi Direct!
If WiFi Direct is not available, it uses the phone's hotspot to create a WiFi network to which the other device connects for receiving files.
But the best part is how simple and fast it is to use. I sent a file around 400mb in about 5 mins! Bluetooth is nowhere near to that!
There is also no need for pairing devices like WiFi Direct, the app does all this by itself using QR Codes.
Only disadvantage is that both phones need to have the app installed.
I really recommend this to all Xperia S users, since we do not have WiFi Direct option in our phones.

Yes all those apps are good too. And there are many more apps on the Play Store that give this functionality, but the reason I chose this one was because of its simplicity. You don't want to go through a whole lot of steps every time just to send a file, it should be quick and simple.
So easy... Thank's a lot for information.
Wow, this is a great Application! I searched for something like that. Thanks!

But it needs internet to transfer files ??? Because i tried to transfer using superbeam or fast file transfer, it tries to create a "wifi tethering" and since i don't have internet it fails to transfer files.
If am trying it wrongly, could somebody please help me to use it in right way?
Thanks.

Use file commander or office suite from play store to send files through wifi direct but the receiving party should also have same app installed in his phone

U don't need Internet to transfer file. Update the superbeam -go to settings in app-sending setting -set preferred direct method to "hotshot "-keep hotshot name and hotshot password blank...... Set same Setting in other mobile also......
since I'm using XAS, I do not find the settings for wifi direct and how to use it. but in the description there is wifi direct feature. please anyone who can help me to find the problem ...??!

I have an XS and it doesn't have Wi-Fi Direct
I don't think AS does, either
I am staying at a hotel where
1. My mobile data plan doesn't work (another country)
2. I paid 30 to have one device (my note II) get internet
3. I learned that I cannot run hotspot and wifi at the same time
How can I share my internet with other devices? Can thos even be done?
Thanks

I dont think it's possible, but you could try using usb tethering or maybe Bluetooth tethering

Thank you
What app can I use for bluetooth tethering? And does the other device require an app as well?

I honestly don't know. I've never used it

Bluetooth tethering is a setting on the rom you are using. It cannot be enabled via app. Its been a while since I messed with my Bluetooth tethering but I can tell you it works very well. I don't have a link handy.
The main advantage is it is very low power. The connection is very seamless as well.

By rom, are you referring to a rooted phone? If so, I don't have a rooted phone. I guess I will consider this for my next trip.
Thanks

If you get internet on your one device then your easiest option is to get internet on your laptop and then create a hotspot on your laptop.
If your laptop is running windows 7 then you can follow the instructions from here.
