Google Drive - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

In case anyone hasn't noticed, Google Drive seems to be rolling out automatically to Android devices. I have the app on both my tablet and my phone, but according to google my drive isn't ready yet.
Anyone else had theirs activated yet?

Hello here its works great

Just to clarify: It doesn't roll out automatically, it is an updated version of the Google Docs app. If you have Docs installed, it will be replaced by Drive. If you don't have Docs, you'll need to install Drive manually.

The reason why you have a "Google Drive" app is because it was just an app update to Google Docs.
The apps update automatically, but people (myself included) are still waiting for Drive to get "turned on" for our accounts.

Weird. I turned it on via the web, downloaded the PC installer and the Android app.

Yeah not everyone got that experience unfortunately. I had to click "notify me" and the web page and apps both tell me to wait until "your google drive is ready".

Tell me about it. I'm interested to see the integration vs. Dropbox, because honestly I have 9.25gb of free Dropbox storage and it integrates with OSX and Android perfectly, so it really needs to be good for me to check it out.

I can tell you right now that the integration is nowhere near the level of Dropbox. I was disappointed.
Although the price per GB if you pay for it is a lot better than Dropbox.

I'm getting the "wait until your google drive is ready"message also...
I'm from Spain BTW

Tbh they're both about the same integration, just a couple of things missing here and there from GDrive.
Personally I prefer GDrive purely because of how you can create, edit and share documents, as well as use it as an online storage service. You can't use Dropbox to edit documents. If Google gets around to integrating some of their other services into GDrive then it can really take off.
At the end of the day, it's been less than 24 hours since the birth of GDrive. Give it time to settle and mature.

With dropbox, I can share a link very easily. Not so with Google Drive. There is no integration with context menus in Windows, and there is no Mac or Linux client. I am aware it is new, but what I said is still pretty true.

There's an OSX client.... no Linux tho.

My drive activated about 30 mins after I installed it. Haven't tested it fully yet, but it is somewhat limited from initial impression. Also, it is a Google app so it needs some time to mature. I thought everybody knew that we are perpetual beta testers by now.

you have to be part of the beta before the app offers you the beta services.
Sign up on music.google.com
but you have to be in the USA...unless you...erm...use a proxy...or vpn... but I am not telling you to do that
It might take several weeks before you get your invite though.

I signed up to the beta and registered via a vpn but have been using it recently through my normal UK IP. It seems to be working pretty nicely so far
I signed up for the Beta the same day it was annouced/offered and didn't get my invite until June 2, so don't give up yet.
How is this one different than the android market version?
Im guessing for those outside the US, but thought I'd ask.

Got it two weeks ago, uploaded almost 15.000 songs and mixes already. Pretty awesome, songs play almost instantly and completely load over 3g in like 10/15 seconds.
Can confirm you only need a USA IP for actually signing in and agreeing to music manager then installing the app.
After that your normal IP will work with it.
Currently uploading my tunes to it, and working well
Loads quickly via 3G as well, quite handy having access to your library from anywhere.
I don't think you need a USA IP at all. I requested an invitation with a Google Account where the country was set to "UK" and received one weeks ago. I sign into music.google.com using the same account in the UK and have no issues.
YMMV.
I am still trying to find out how I can let Google Music download the Offline content to my external_sd card instead of the internal.
Where is google storing those music files now? Any idea.
Was anybody able to set a song as a ringtone that has been put as offline content?

[APP] [NEWS] Google Drive on HOX - Now Available! :D

Just unlocked my HOX and saw that their was an update notification.
It was Google Drive!!!
Apparently, the Docs app has been updated to Google Drive.
Still exploring. More to follow.
Update 1: You get 5 gigs of storage space to begin with.
Update 2: It is ICS optimized (no annoying 3 dots). Why the Docs app wasn't optimized becomes clear now.
Update 3: The app is a bit rough around the edges. Stuttery scrolling and some low-res graphics.
Update 4: Drive supports upto 30 different file formats. Some (like PSDs) cannot be previewed by the app but can be in the web version.

Simple - Docs. That's my primary office suite. And I'm sure it will have a lot of other (free or otherwise) goodies to offer as well. Basically the ability to sync with all of Goog's services.
Also, Collaborative editing - A boon for people like me.

Not to get off topic, but I will probably be getting Google Drive, as I do use Google docs quite extensively when working with teams. Looks pretty cool!
You mention that only 30 types of files are "compatible" with Google Drive. Do you mean that only 30 file types are viewable, or only up-loadable?

I'm really enjoying it. I've been getting my Android back stuff on there and my photos. You can't hide folders but they are set to private with access granted by other users email addresses being added to view your folder.
It looks alright, but I alraedy have 50 gbs of storage on Box :/

50 GB from drive is nice I agree, but I rarely use it because of the file size limitation...
So on Drive the problem I have with is the android app kind of sucks. I don't need the alphabet showing me where I'm at between files. It makes it show a lot fewer files at a time.. I want just a file explorer kind of view. I need the ability to add folders. And the worse thing is where are the files after I make them available offline? Like if I store android files and then make them offline for phone use I can't access them outside of the drive app unless I'm missing something.
Things that will change in time I'm sure, but for now since I primarily use my android devices over PC I have still been using drop box mostly other than to est stuff.
I like sugarsync.

[Q] google drive

with box, dropbox and skydrive, with least 10gb of space, why would you go use google drive when it is only 5gb?
its out 2day if you dont have it yet.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...DEsImNvbS5nb29nbGUuYW5kcm9pZC5hcHBzLmRvY3MiXQ..
dropbox only gives u 2gb. u have to get people to register to get more space. check out cx and minus, also.
i've got 4.6gb on dropbox, after playing with the beta and uploading lots of stuff for the increased space...
got 50gb on box.net, but 100mb file limit sux.
I have a box 50gb account but that is very hard to fill up with the 100mb max single upload limit so I'm all for Gdrive
Edit: has anyone actually gotten to use this yet it tells me mines not ready yet. I WANT lol

Gtalk vs G+ messenger

Hello,
What do think about them? I feel they are almost the same... can I disable talk and keep only messenger? Have any one tried that?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2
I wish G+ messenger had the same ICS style UI as GTalk . But on G+ you can text pics and use hangouts. The only thing I don't like about G+ messenger is there is no led notification which GTalk has.

I don't see why Google doesn't just unify all of its messaging services (Google voice/talk and g+ messenger) into one service. Hopefully that's where it's heading.

I've been talking about this with my friends for the longest time. The fact that GTalk can't send files is a kind of a huge issue for me as other wise its a great service. What I would love to see Google do is take a kind of Apple approach to it.. One messaging app that can text from your phones number or your Google voice number as you so designate, and, if the person your messaging is likewise using an Android 4.0.x and above platform, it would automatically send via data with higher limits to what you could send as opposed to text, and it would link to video calls and hangouts and such like GTalk and Messenger, can send files other than pictures.
Basically, one unified messenger to rule them all. I am not a huge apple fan, but I like the concept of iMessage and I know that if El Goog took the time to make it so, they could unify their services into one glorious messaging platform.

Unfortunately they are very different. Messenger is mobile only and requires the user have the G+ app but it does offer more features. GTalk allows you to message anyone on an Android or through the web on Gmail or G+. They really need to merge these messaging services into one as it is very confusing.

Google just bought Meebo so I would assume we will see some improvements in this area later this year or early next year at the latest. They have to know their current implementation is not very good.
I'm confused. The GTalk and GChat programs on a PC have been able to send files for years. And on the phone neither GTalk or G+ Messenger can send files, so I'm not sure where that comparison came from.
To share large files (or 300 photos) just toss them on Google Drive or Dropbox. I haven't checked, but there's also probably an app to take advantage of Wifi-Direct to "beam" it locally.
Also, G+ messenger doesn't have a standalone PC application. That is no good for unifying. I use the PC app at home/work, and phone app elsewhere. Having to keep your browser open to chat is a real nuisance IMHO.

However the GTalk client on Android does not allow for sending any files whatsoever. And while yes you could use drop box or drive or others as a workaround, what I'm saying is that including that support on the Android Platform app would be amazing. And a huge incentive to use it over regular texting.

maybe if it's starred enough google will be pushed to finally make it happen? I would love to see the integration, in the gtalk UI with additional features like sending files/pictures and improved notifications ( http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=43009 )

Thanks. That would be nice to get this some traction. There were actually already some articles pointing out the issue but those faded away without any impact.
Nevertheless - it can't be ruled out that google is already working on this (*fingers crossed*)
I prefer Gtalk being left alone. Also I don't know why but Google keeps adding random people to my g+ messenger contact list. They are not on my circles either.

maybe you have added them as following? Had same problem but then I went to chat -> privacy settings and selected "my circles" and in g+ settings I selected only a few close circles as "my circles" and actually the list is waaay shorter (and is basically the same as in gtalk).
