Hello,
I paired my Galaxy S2 with my Galaxy Nexus, but I always get an error message while trying to send files from the S2 to the Nexus. It says that the Nexus rejects the bluetooth query from my Galaxy S2.
Any ideas?
I also tried that and it doesn't work.
As a matter of fact sending anything via bluetooth doesn't work for me to the GN.
Did you also try to send files from your computer to the Nexus?
Yup...didn't work.
Thats a shame.
I hope Google will fix this.
In the meantime, I will have to transfer files from my computer via USB Cable.

Heya..
I used to own a Samsung Galaxy S II (my first android device) when it first came out but i returned it for xxx reasons.
I remember a program that you could use without connecting the phone to the pc via USB cable.. but over the internet.
Im wondering if there is any such program like that i can use with the Galaxy Nexus.. or if i can use that same program if it wasnt just for the SGSII
Thanks
Try AirDroid from the market.
thanks.. i will give it a try
There is also Wifi File transfer. Seams to work well for me.

I am having a very annoying issue with my Galaxy Nexus. When I connect it to my PC, it recognizes the device, however, constantly connects and disconnects. The USB cord is not moving. My other USB devices connect and stay connected (hard drives, mouse, printer, droid). I found this post attached, however, therre is no PhoneUtil code for the Galaxy Nexus.
Does anyone out there know how to solve this issue?

Have you tried another usb cable?
yes. same thing happened.
I have the same issue on 2 separate Galaxy Nexus phones now. no solution yet. I am on the phone with Samsung to see what they can do.
thanks for the reply. please keep me posted. i havent resolved my issue yet.
I've tried changing it from MTP to PTP and turning after switching between the two. I've tried two different roms, one based on 4.0.4 and 4.0.3. I've Tried several different USB cables, including the ones that came with my G2x and Nexus One. I've tried it in a USB 3.0 Port. I've tried using different kernals. Even when I get into recovery, windows still doesn't read somthing is attached. I've been transfering ROMS to it via dropbox. I don't think it's a rom issue as it should still show up in windows when in recovery. Also on those roms I made sure that they didn't have "USB Fast Charge" enabled, as I heard that can cause the issue I'm experience. Thinking it was an issue with CWM, I downgraded it, but still no USB. I'm stuck here. Any help is greatly appreciated.
The 1st posts pdf seems to be the most logical solution, we just need the phoneutil code for the galaxy nexus.
This seems to be a common issue with the GNex, see http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=23789 and http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1427539.
Please star/comment on the google issue tracker.
thanks for your post. the issue in the posts you included seem to be a different issue. those refer to the battery and charging icon, while my issue is related to the computer recognizing and connecting with the phone. i am going to post something on the google board though, i havent seen that one before. thanks!
It's the same issue...
Before I had the problem with the charging icon it started just like your problem...seems to be a problem with the usb plug....only solution is to send it to repair or exchange the phone.

What annoys me is that when I got the phone it was already rooted and I didn't have a chance to try it stock or back up the original. It was rooted with an older version, so I flashed 4.0.4 on it. Check out the reviews on newegg I'm not alone in reporting a messed with Galaxy Nexus.

I found a fix for the issue
This was a very frustrating issue for me. I just purchased the phone yesturday to have an issue like was unacceptable. After hours of frustration, I found a solution. First off, download the offical driver pack from samsungs website. Once you have the pack installed, plug the phone back in. Once you have completed this, go under development and enable USB debugging. After the debugging, you should have a stable USB connection and wired tethering will work. I hope this helps you guys with your issue. It resolved mine. This was also done running Windows 8 beta.
Hi, I am wondering if it were possible for somebody on here to write an app or pc program that turns my phone into a bluetooth dongle via usb? Because I have a bluetooth headset that I want to use on my pc but I can't use it because I don't have a bluetooth dongle. Now instead of going out and buying a bluetooth dongle, I figured since I have an android phone that it would somehow be possible to use my phone as a bluetooth adapter/dongle that my pc can use? I'm using windows 7 amd 64-bit, and a sprint galaxy nexus. (please move to appropriate forum, idk how i got in the galaxy note ii forum i thought i was in sprint galaxy nexus forum)

never seen such a thing. would be cool. i recommend just going and buying a dongle. they are super super cheap anyway. so very little harm will be done with that money.
I don't know if it can and never seen a project like this, but I think you better off buying the USB-Bluetooth adapter. It's extremely cheap now a day. And you gotta ask yourself, is it very worth it to wait? Even if it exist, it wouldn't be as capable as the real one, and then you have to worry about some other stuff what happen when the phone ring, does the phone have the head set or the PC? Seriously, go buy the adapter unless you want to scratch your own itch.
thanks for the feedback. I got a bluetooth adapter recently but it says my headset has no device drivers to install so it doesn't work for me :/ Idk how to make it work
ah, i had that on win7. doesn't come with a2dp drivers. you need your own (laptops tend to come with the manufacturers own) like blue soleil or some such

Hey man. So, actually making your phone into a bluetooth dongle is a lil' bit nasty due to permission issues. BUT, there is another way. As you are willing to use this "measure" to stream your PC's audio to your bluetooth headset, you can download an audio streaming app from the appstore (such as SoundWire for Android), set up the connection between your PC and your smartphone, and THEN you share your phone's media through the phone's bluetooth service to the headset. Maybe there can be a loss of syncronization for games and videos, but music will be just fine! Hope it helps

Hmm. Well, things like USB WiFi dongles and USB bluetooth dongles do exist, so USB had nothing against wifi or bluetooth. And those dongles work just fine even when connected through a USB hub. And as you say, your device has both WiFi and bluetooth. So, the simplest possible solution would be to have the PC view the phone as a USB hub, and the phones WiFi and bluetooth can be shown as USB dongles connected through this "hub". Infact, with that option, it should be possible to share lots of things between the PC and phone. You could share NFC, or even a fingerprint scanner, if you have them. Internet is obvious, because we already have USB tethering for that. I believe we also have apps that let us use the smart phone camera as a webcam? That too can be covered in this. Heck, even a GPS for the PC. (Or laptop?) Anyway, I am not much for coding and such, so if someone finds a way to implement it, please let me know? (If this becomes an app, then send me a free link, perhaps?)
Has anyone figured out how to get WiFi direct working?
I've used it in the Galaxy S III and you just choose a picture and share it via WiFi direct.
But I'm connected to my girlfriend's nexus with my nexus right now and I don't have the option to share anything...
Mine didnt work with 4.1.2 either.. Never figured out why..

anyone sorted this out?
it seems that on the gnex google provided the api (functionality) but no the interface...
I have a galaxy note 10.1 where also the interface in implemented by samsung, still I can connect gnex with note but file transfer fails
Some problem on me.
I have the Galaxy S4 and the new Nexus 7,
I cant get WiFi direct to transfer a file between them, they do pair up and see each other.
I can how ever use WiFi direct to copy a file from my S4 to my Note 10.1 just fine. Any ideas?
Thanks-
Side note - NFC Beam works fine but the transfer rate is sooo slow....
I could not WiFi Direct to work either. I got Wifi File Transfer Pro from the play store and it works great.

Superbeam works great for me.
I have the same issue. I have ATT Note 2. I can transfer files via Bluetooth or WifeDirect to S4 or other phone but it doesn't work on my N7 2013 for unknown reason. They pair but just won't transfer the files. Very frustrating.
