894672 - [B2G][NFC][User Story]: Support NFC Pairing

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(Firefox OS Graveyard :: NFC, defect)

Description

[Sandip Kamat]

The user can initiate BT pairing via NFC. The most common use case is with BT enabled speakers or headsets.
1) The user can tap an NFC enabled BT device (e.g. BT speakers, BT headsets etc) to allow easy pairing with that BT device. No typical BT interactions (choosing a device to pair, entering pin codes) are necessary.
a) The above can happen at any point/screen on the mobile (as long as NFC is turned on).
b) If BT is turned off, the user will be prompted to turn on BT.
c) If music is already playing on the mobile, tapping on a NFC enabled BT speaker/headset to initiate a BT connection will lead to pairing, connecting the BT device and then transferring the music playback to the speaker/headset.

<Acceptance Criteria> (Proposal)
1. When NFC and BT are on, user can pair with BT headset or speaker without BT interaction
2. When NFC is on and BT is off, user can see a prompt for enabling BT before pairing
3. When NFC and BT and Music are on, after pairing, music can play in BT device.

We only focus on pairing. 

Other questions include: 
1. What profiles need to be covered? 
2. What versions of BT profiles need to covered? 

Sandip? Can you help to clarify? Thanks!

We need to support the current BT profiles till 1.2. BT team has the latest but the wiki is here: https://wiki.mozilla.org/B2G/Bluetooth.

Also, please confirm which parts of the original user story we can't support in 1.2/1.3 if any?

Comment 6

[Kai-Chih Hu [:khu]]

Sandip, thanks! I am thinking the same thing. 

By the way, since this pairing is a v1.3 feature, should we align with the scope of Bluetooth profiles and versions for Firefox OS v1.3? Or, we focus on the Bluetooth profiles in v1.2? Because Bluetooth is also in your plate, it would be great if you could share with us. Thanks!

Comment 7

[Sandip Kamat]

Correct, We should align with 1.3 BT profiles.

Comment 8

[Kai-Chih Hu [:khu]]

Confirmed that Firefox OS v1.3 won't support additional Bluetooth profile. So, the supported Bluetooth profiles are as the same as what we have in v1.2:

Remove blocking-b2g flag from User Story bugs. Use whiteboard to indicate what FxOS version we target.

Comment 11

[Jean Gong :jgong]

Update whiteboard tag to follow format [ucid:{id}, {release}:p{1,2}, ft:{team-id}]

Close this bug so that QA can do verification.

Comment 14

[Wesley Huang [:wesley_huang] (EPM) (NI me)]

Walter,
Can you update testing result according to the AC?

Comment 15

[Walter Chen[:ypwalter][:wachen]]

This is not verified. It failed on my testing.
The design is different from UX spec.

Comment 16

[Walter Chen[:ypwalter][:wachen]]

Also, I suggest that we can add a switch for enabling or disabling the confirm step (step.2 in P.6~8).

Juwei, how do you think about this UX idea?

Comment 17

[Juwei Huang[:juwei]]

As I said in bug 969277, the confirm step can be discarded once everyone all agree with turning on BT without inform users at the moment of pairing BT speaker/headset.
