Bluetooth Query rejected

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.

GNex not recognized in Windows 7

I need help getting my Windows 7 x64 to recognize my GNex.
Whenever I plug it in I dont hear the default USB plug-in sound (Windows), but my phone is charging.
I cannot mount my storage either in recovery or inside Android.
My device manager is not showing errors and my GNex at all.
Tried installing the Google USB Driver from SDK, no luck
Tried PDANet which did not install because of missing drivers.

Use a program called usbdeview and uninstall the drivers you have installed for the Gnex. Then use the galaxy nexus toolkit to install the correct ones.

You dont by chance have the "fast charge" mod enabled through your kerenel do you? Because if so you will need to disable the feature first before plugging up to you Windows machine.

This is starting to become an "epidemic".. :O

I can almost guarantee that it's usb fast charge, devs should really put a warning on that

I too have a Win7 x64 laptop and had a similar issue, but the Device Manager did report an error with the Android 1.0 and/or Samsung driver. I had to manually update driver for it to work thru Device Manager.

Woops. Well there are some ways to check what is disturbing the connection. Let's start at the beginning:
Check if your phone is configured to interact with your computer. After conneting your phone you should get a selection list in your phones notification bar. Make sure to select usb storrage from that list.
On your windows computer go to [start] and type "device manager". After the application (that shows all hardware devices connected to the system) loaded connect your phone and check if something changes. If everything works all right you should get your nexus. If a question mark apears double click it to check the problem.
Try yo connect your device to another computer or with another cable. If the problem is not solved by above steps contact your seller.
If this is not possible install Airdroid and connect your phone to your computers browser or ES file Explorer to browse your pc over the network

Ok, I'm having this issue, but Windows doesn't even recognize anything is plugged in! I tried it on a TON of computers at work with several different USB cables. Nothing! All I get is charging, but no options in the top menu or anything. Is this a toasted Nexus? I just got it, now I can't even transfer files to its storage. I've been transferring files through dropbox...which is annoying...if it is USB Fastcharge, how do I disable it?

Their IS a fix for this, but we need the code to get into the PhoneUtil menu and turn USB back on.
It's an issue with Samsung phones apparently, and here's a fix someone found a while ago.

We just need the PhoneUtil code for the Galaxy Nexus and we should be all set.

Check your drivers

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.

My issue is definitely hardware. I sent my GNex back and they sent me back a new one which I received yesterday. I checked and this one wasn't previously rooted or Unlocked. It worked for a day (worked as in windows saw it and I could xfer music/books/comics to it) after I get home from work Windows stopped recognizing it. I did NOTHING to the phone, it just stopped being seen by windows. I only used the cable that came with it and charged it the night before using the supplied adapter, but the USB still stopped working. Last resort I did a system restore to the phone and the USB still doesn't show up in anything ,Tried 5 of my Windows PC's A bunch of PC's at work, my friends Mac, my Ubuntu powered Netbook, my Xbox360 and PS3, even the Transformer Prime using the keyboard dock. This is telling me it's a hardware issue with the Device. Might be somthing wrong with the latest batch of GNex's but the USB seems to give out. Even if I put the phone in ODIN mode NOTHING recognizes it. So, before you all waste your time finding a fix, this is 100% absolutly a hardware issue with these phones, I don't know why, but I had Two bad ones in a row, and am Hoping my 3rd isn't borked too.
I have a bad history with Android phones....My first Nexus One wouldn't stay on, so I got a replacement from HTC. My first two G2x's would constantly reboot, It wasn't until the 3rd one that I got a working one. Now I'm hoping I don't have to go through 4 bad Galaxy Nexus' before getting one that actually works!
I have the opposite luck with tablets....the Novo7, Iconia A100 and Transformer Prime have been perfect outa box. This ordeal with android phones makes me seriously consider exchanging the GNex for an iPhone4s....but the iPhone4s screen is SOOOOO tiny!!!

WiFi Direct (4.2)

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..

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.

[Q] How to connect to internet via PC?

Hi,
I just got my new Note 2, and I'm wanting to set it up, and download all my apps etc. Now I was hoping to connect to the internet via my PC internet connection, but when I plug in my USB cable, I don't get any option like that. Am I doing something wrong, or missing something? I know you can do it over wi-fi, but I don't have access to that.
Thanks,
David

So no one has any idea? Or am I the only person to have this problem? I did look, but couldn't find anything.

You can't tether pc connection to phone.

[Q] Nexus PC Connection Issues

Ok, so don't shoot me right away. I'm another one of those guys with a Nexus PC connectivity issue. However, I have been searching for the last few days on this forum and others, and can't find my specific problem. I bought my Gnex used off ebay, with a bad ESN (just using it as an Android media player). The issue I'm having comes when I connect it to my computer. It does not show up at all, or even charge. However, it charges just fine with any wall charger I use. At first I thought it was the USB cables I tried, so I bought an OEM one off ebay, to no avail. I think the very first time I tried connecting, it attempted to install drivers, but failed, and now does nothing on any computer I try (3 total, all Windows 7, tried all USB ports).
Any ideas? I'd like to eventually root it, and transfer files faster than using Wifi File Transfer. Thanks for any help!

Try samsung drivers pack, available for download from (official) samsung website manuals and downloads page for smartphones, its about 30mb and has so far had every driver i have needed for gnex, s2 and s3, download the drivers pack and run it, then reboot computer and plug in gnex via usb, the drivers should auto install but it may take a coupla minutes. Worth a try as it found drivers i was missing and needed
