How to check whether NFC is enabled or not in android?

Question

How can i check whether NFC is enabled or not programmatically? Is there any way to enable the NFC on the device from my program? Please help me

Answer 1

NfcManager manager = (NfcManager) context.getSystemService(Context.NFC_SERVICE); NfcAdapter adapter = manager.getDefaultAdapter(); if (adapter != null && adapter.isEnabled()) {     // adapter exists and is enabled. } 

You cannot enable the NFC programmatically. The user has to do it manually through settings or hardware button.
