Sony support center's reply to the issue.
Turning on Wi-Fi Direct
Android 4.1 / 4.2
To turn on Wi-Fi Direct
- From your Home screen, tap the Application screen icon.
- Find and tap Settings > Wi-Fi.
- Press the menu key > Wi-Fi Direct
- Make sure Wi-Fi Direct is turned on in the other device.
- Tap Search for devices.
- Under PEER DEVICES, tap the device you want to connect to.
- Wait for the status under the device name to change from Invited to Connected.
Sending files using Wi-Fi Direct
The advantage with sending files with Wi-Fi Direct is that it goes quicker to
send larger files than with, for example, Bluetooth.
To be able to transfer files between two devices you have to:
- Make sure both devices are Wi-Fi Direct compatible
- Make sure that both devices have installed Office Suite Viewer 7 or later
- Share the files using the Office Suite Wi-Fi Direct menu in, for example, Album if you send a photo
Downloading Office Suite
To download Office Suite
- In your Xperia™ device, download and install Office Suite Viewer 7 or later from Google Play.
Sharing a photo using Wi-Fi direct
To share a photo using Wi-Fi Direct
- Open Album, tap the photo that you want to share with another device.
- Tap the share icon and select OfficeSuite Wi-Fi Direct. Alternatively, tap the OfficeSuite Wi-Fi Direct icon.
OfficeSuite Wi-Fi Direct starts scanning for Wi-Fi Direct devices automatically. - Make sure the device you want to share the photo with has opened Office Suite.
- Under Available devices, tap the device you want to share the photo with.
Its status changes to Invited. - Wait for the status to change to Connected. This may take some time.
The photo is now sent to the other device.
