How to enable NFC with Project Tango Development Tablet?

Question

I want to enable the NFC function for my Project Tango Development Tablet. I added the following lines to the AndroidManifest:

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.NFC" />
<uses-feature android:name="android.hardware.nfc" android:required="false" />

And I added the following lines to my onCreate() function:

NfcAdapter nfcAdapter = NfcAdapter.getDefaultAdapter(this);
    if(nfcAdapter != null && nfcAdapter.isEnabled()) {
        Toast.makeText(this, "NFC available", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
    } else {
        Toast.makeText(this, "NFC not available", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
    }

But NFC is not available. I read that the Tango tablet has RFID/NFC hardware here . Can anyone help me with my problem?

Answer 1

I can answer my own question. I forgot to enable NFC in the settings. You have to turn on NFC, go to Settings>More...>NFC and switch it on .
