[Q] Android Beam

Evening, guys.
I'm kinda having problems with my Android Beam on the GNexus.
I used my phone (GNexus 4.1.1) and my girlfriend's phone (NexusS 4.1.1).
Put them back to back and tried to send webpages, youtube videos, contacts, images, etc..
Both devices vibrate and have the "touch to beam" options.
When attempting to send the file after touching, the image of that file would just slowly getting smaller on the screen to a point it just "goes away" and nothing happens on both phones.
The device trying to send just stays on the Beam's screen and the other device trying to receive doesn't do anything.
(just ONCE we could share a video from youtube with no problem, as mine GNexus was at 4.0.4 yet)
Don't have any other device to test..
Bought mine 3 days ago, wondering if it could be a hardware (or whatever) problem.
Any ideas about that?
Thanks in advance.

Nobody?
Have just few more days to send it back to the store if it's factory problem.. needing help ASAP

Have you tried GW?

Mine does the same when beaming with friends galaxy s2 I don't know what happens

Have you tried with other devices or just your friends S2?
Thanks for the replies
Best regards

No problem between my gnex and n7.
Beamed from my Grouper.

Have you tried touching and holding instead of just tapping, when it says to touch?

Yeah, already tryied almost everything.. holding, double tapping, frenetic tapping.. lol
But they just do the same
Wish I had another device to test at..

I think this might be a software problem, if it was a hardware problem nothing would even show up.

[Q] screen issues

Hey guys hopefully somebody can help me...for whatever reason when I'm screening videos my screen goes dark but the video keeps playing...when I tap on the screen the picture returns, but it happens every 5 seconds or so...the weird thing is it's only when I'm streaming...when I am watching videos stored on my phone it works fine, does this happen to anyone else

it only happens to me when I am playing content inside the web browser and only from certain sites. nba.com does it quite a bit for me.
Any video in an app works great, video stored on the device works great.
No idea why, I assumed that it had to do with support for flash or some such funny business.

this is a good point and video seems to work on Dolphin for me. Chrome has been the problem for me.

if you go to settings>developer options and click disable hw overlays it will fix the problem. but you have to disable it after every reboot is the bad part.

Was going to say the same thing, it's a JellBean thing. Option wasn't even there on ICS.

I then have to click the power button and enter my unlock pattern. I just noticed it yesterday after i dropped the phone. I have dropped it a few times but only on carpet. Could someone help me?
Thanks very much.
P.S. if this is in the wrong section please move it.

Hi, while I was playing youtube last night I accidentally opened the slider. The audio kept playing. Due to this I now think that it is the Screen that turns off when the slider is opened.

About youtube the current version you having is like that. When ever u play any video. U turn off your screen. The audio will be played. Thats normal for the old youtube version. U try to update the app. Or else install new ROM?
U should install new rom. Maybe it will solve your problems

If there is a problem with the slide cable it can do this. That said, I absolutely hate that my phone unlocks itself when I slide it!

I resetted the settings and now the phone screen turns off by itself!

You have to have ringtone volume up. It doesn't rely on media volume. No vibrate or silent mode.

It does not talk back for every single thing you request. It's always been that way.
