[Q] WiFi Direct on Evo 3D? - HTC EVO 3D

From what i see, and from what i search on the web, the EVO 3D ICS , didn't get the WiFi Direct feature. But i really don't understand why.
Is there WiFi Direct on evo 3d ? Cause from what i know is a standar ICS feature , and doesn't require any special hardware.

Your provider attempts to block features you have the right to use to attempt you to use their illegal software that they put on your phone. only stupid people pay their 25 dollars to use it.

Ok , i get it. But is there a way to connect 2 Evo 3D Devices and send some files between them , useing the WiFi without an router or not? I sow an a web site , saying the the galaxy s2 is able to do this , but the evo 3d no :| that's why i am confused.
And i don't have another phone so i can test it.

answer. yes! there is. sadly.... I don't remember what it was. hmmmmm I think it was some sort of proof of concept app someone had. I tried it out and it actually worked! BUT! I just don't remember what it was. Then again... I forget if I had to be rooted or not too. the evo 3d IS A ROUTER! I don't know if you understood me the FIRST TIME I just hinted that out. You can connect devices to it like a router... it has its own IP address. you can make an FTP server on it which would allow you to connect lets say a computer to your cell allowing you to connect to the FTP server and download the files you want. DON'T BELIEVE SOME LYING WEBSITE THAT IS GETTING PAID TO PROMOTE THE STUPID SAMSUNG PHONES! LOL really!? Even the IPhone can do this! Almost every smartphone today can do it.... but the issue is that the providers are illegally blocking it to promote their own crap version of it and then they limit it so you can't use it.
Either way... you need to root your phone. Just take like 2-3 hours of your day. back everything up. WRITE DOWN all your settings. then just root it. if you don't know what you're doing, don't play stupid and install crap mods that you see on this site. just install the rooted factory software. because when we get 4.0, you'll just be doing it all over again... but then again. in the long run. this is all a piece of cake.

Wi-Fi Direct allows Android 4.0 (API level 14) or later devices with the appropriate hardware to connect directly to each other via Wi-Fi without an intermediate access point. Using these APIs, you can discover and connect to other devices when each device supports Wi-Fi Direct, then communicate over a speedy connection across distances much longer than a Bluetooth connection. This is useful for applications that share data among users, such as a multiplayer game or a photo sharing application.
There is no such thing in my evo 3d unbranded

That was unnecessary.
If you're trying to get your post count up, post something meaningful, this isn't the first time I've seen you post something pointless.
And, OP, I actually agree with you here.
When I was using a Sense 4.0 ROM, the phone had it. Using a Sense 3.6 ROM, I don't have it.
So I know that the phone has the hardware and is capable of it, but no devs have implemented it.
If you don't really care about 3D and WiFi tethering, install a Sense 4.0 ROM and you'll have the feature.
Otherwise, you'll just have to wait and live without it.
