NFC not working in ZR?

ZRdabst — Tue, 03 Sep 2013 04:55:17 GMT

I have tried it with my Nokia701.And it is not detecting any contact.
I have it on.

And NFC of nokia701 is perfect as i used to use it with some smart tags before.

that's quite odd, you should be able to see the sticker on the back on the ZR, does the Nokia work with other phones with NFC?

Yes bro.
I can see the sticker at the back of the Zr.
And yes Nokia NFC works with smarttags and Nokia 808PV and Galaxy s4 and NFC enabled headset before.(just some weeks back) and even lumia phones

this might be a dumb question but do the smarttags work with the ZR?

check your bluetooth, if its working, because NFC uses bluetooth frequency for transfer. Mine bluetooth is not working therefore NFC is also not working..Seems like ZR has lot of defective piece with bluetooth problem including mine..
