Hi, wondering if anyone could help me, I bought a nexus 7 32gb and tried to beam a picture from note 2 via gallery to the nexus 7 but it keeps coming up with google play saying retry any reason it won't send content?

Turn off S Beam, just normal Beam. It will work.

You can also beam Contacts you're looking at
I think you can do pictures/videos but I've yet to try
I heard you can beam Scottie up. True Story.

gallery images & videos won't transfer via Android Beam.. you can launch apps & games provided that it is installed.. if it's not installed on the other device it opens up the market link to it.. map locations can also be beamed..
i also just noticed that paypal has an NFC widget for easy money transfers.
Anything with the blue nfc app from the market

Blue NFC is a very very nice app, I will try it with my galaxy nexus and my friend nexus s
tested here with an GN and Nexus S, getting always receiption error ...
looking fine, BT starts on both devices, transfer file, closes BT on both devices,
but error receiption on target device.
normal BT transfer tested and working fine.
will try on 2 GN to see if that works.
I don't know anyone with a GN so can't test

I'm having trouble using Android beam between my S3 and my wife's S2. No touch to beam prompt from S2->S3 for a gallery picture. From. S3->S2 the s3 tries to use s beam and the S2 starts marketplace with app not found. Any ideas?

I guess ubeam cant work bet s2 and s3 bcos it isnt a built in feature on s2..
Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk 2
strange, what's android beam on the S2 for then? more info:
-both stock, S3 is rooted
-NFC and android beam turned on for both phones
- S beam is turned off on the S3
wifi direct works as a workaround, but beam is much more convenient.
I believe the ONLY thing nfc does on the sgs2 is transfer websites. Could be wrong..

I beamed two S2's together and only transferred curtain things, I have not tried S2 with the S3, but it works with S3 and Galaxy note 1.
I've never been able to transfer music like they say you can. When I select the track then bump the back of the phones it goes into beam mode and I tap just like I do with pictures but there's no progress bar and have waited and nothing happens.
Its not a specific phone. Its like this on every s3 I've tried also

I don't think the Galaxy Nexus supports S-Beam. Android Beam only sends contacts, app store pages, images, browser pages (and maybe a few other things) but not Songs afaik.
S-Beam is only on Touchwiz galaxy devices (SII, SIII).

....its on the galaxy nexus.. I've used it several times. Last night as well.. When you Google s-beam it also talks about how you can transfer songs and playlist also. The other day I transfered a 40mb video from my phone to an s3 just fine
Next person please..

S-beam was never advertised as a galaxy nexus feature. Period. Android beam, WiFi display, WiFi direct, were.
What does logcat/dmesg say?

Android beam, s-beam. Practically the same. I actually transfered a song to a galaxy note 2 early today. It was weird. Tried an s3 after and it wouldn't work then tried the note 2 again and it didn't work. It acts like it works but no progress bar and doesn't transfer. Its been random.
I'll try to get a logcat

I've never neen able to transfer photos or vidz via Android beam, only web pages, links to Play store apps, and the occasional contact. How are you getting it to work? I've tried with an S3 with no luck.
The trick to transferring images is turn on NFC and Android Beam and Bluetooth on both devices. NFC acts as an initiator for the Bluetooth connection and then the image is sent via Bluetooth between devices. I've only tried on a nexus 7 and galaxy nexus though.

When I try to share music using Android Beam, the system takes me to the Play Store.

Has anybody successfully been able to beam between the N7 and a Samsung S3?
Everyone I try it must opens the play store and nothing happens.
Any ideas?

I don't think it works. I tried it with a S4 and a N7 and it hasn't worked. I don't think Sammy's sbeam is compatible with the N7 nfc transfer... Two Google devices yeah, but a Sammy and a Google device? Doesn't work for me...

I have a nexus and an S3 and it works fine. I tried replicating the issue and it worked fine for me. First question is, are you on a custom ROM? Not sure if that has anything to do with it, but just putting that out there.
Second, my nfc settings on S3 are with android beam on, so beam off.
Also make sure that you are placing the nfc sensors together, as it can be difficult to find on the nexus.
Lastly, I love using an app called SuperBeam, which allows me to share files between my two devices. It's like S beam for galaxy phones, except for all nfc android phones.
Best of luck!

My s3 also s4 when trying to beam to my N7 are both directed to the play store. When I run an aosp romn the s4 it works fine with the n7 and android beam. I think touchwiz messes it up.

Disable S-Beam and enable Android Beam and it will work with the Nexus 7 or any NFC enabled android device.
it will work only by opening the bluetooth not the wifi for the transfer...so for large files it's not so fast transfer. ..

Does anyone use the ATT Uverse app? I am on straight AOSP 4.3 on my VZW GNEX and the streaming of shows through the app doesn't work. I just get a black screen and then an error. Works fine on my wife's stock Moto RAZR M. Just wondering if anyone actually has it working. Must be some kind of codec or player aosp lacks compared to the moto software. Did some searching and Google didn't reveal much. Thanks.
