The problem
Steps to reproduce
Try to activate NFC somewhere, you won't find any setting to do it. Nothing in Settings, and nothing in the control center (in the notification pannel).
What is the current behavior?
What is the expected correct behavior?
I should have settings to activate NFC, which is the case in LineageOS 17.1 and probably in LineageOS 16.0 (I forgot to check).
I have never used NFC in this phone so I can't be 100% sure it's there and it's working, but on the internet, I see everywhere that this phone has it. And if it's there in LineageOS 17 (and activate by default), I guess it's really here and working.
So I really think /e/ "forgot" to activate it in the build or I don't know.
