Samsung Dock - Wallpaper - Galaxy S III Accessories

For the life of me I cannot figure out why a generic wallpaper starts running about 10 minutes or so after I place my phone on the Samsung Galaxy Multimedia Desktop Charging Dock.
I've disabled the option for my phone to go to sleep within the Developer options but that doesn't appear to have fixed it. I would prefer to have my phone's screen stay off while it's on the dock, but I can't figure out how.
Anyone have any luck or experience with this dock and keeping the phone screen from turning on for a wallpaper?
thanks!

It might be the daydreaming option.

You wouldn't happen to know where to disable this option would you? I can't find it anywhere. I'm running stock 4.1.1

I'd also like to know how to disable this.

No ideas? Not only is this annoying but while this stupid screensaver thingy is running my phone gets pretty warm.

Look under settings ->accessory and see if adjusting those settings helps. Maybe it's the home screen one listed in there

It should be under settings > display > daydream.

thanks for the information above, I believe this option is only for version 4.2, I'm currently on at&t and running 4.1.1

Hmm, is there a way to access this via version 4.1?

Market issue! help!!

So yesterday I noticed that Google plus was removed from my device. I went to download it but it now says its incompatible......
when I look at the flash page in the market it says its: incompatible as well however is still installed. About half of the apps I view are apparently incompatible!!!
Has anyone experienced this before? How do I fix it and what the heck causes it?

You will see more apps available if you downgrade your market. Not sure the version. This is the best workaround I know, or do what I do. I just push my density to stock when I need an app or once a week to look for updates. All it takes is a quick edit and a reboot...

[TIP] Make ICS Run Smoother! :D

Go to Settings - Developer Settings - Force 2D GPU (Check it)
There... Your Phone Will Run Way Smoother.
That is bad in the long run

Dosnt that just drain your battery?
No. It forces the GPU to run instead of the CPU. It works in a similar way as when you run a game, the GPU controls all the graphics while the CPU handles the rest. So the GPU should be used to handle the GUI, not the CPU handling processes and GUI. And leave the GPU doing barely any work.
Also certain apps will not run correctly, like the XDA app

Not only does it not do much it screws up allot of apps. If it was all that great it would be checked by default.
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda premium
I really do not know what you guys are talking about. I have that option turned on right now, and it works PERFECT. Also, did you know the developers enabled that on GB? But did it do anything bad to the phone? No. Did you guys agree? Yes.

i think it is the default for aokp... i just looked and it was checked on my phone and i don't remember doing it (and i just flashed an updated build yesterday).
I've been using that setting for a couple days now. I've notice no ill effects. Seems fine.

Some pics don't show up in the xda app regardless, that has been an issue for awhile now. Has nothing to do with having that checked.
Are you saying it happens more often with it checked?
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda premium
The app itself should be optimize to take use of it. If an app can do it, it will automatically do it. I personally recommend leaving it unchecked for various reasons such as the picture problem stated above as well as not every app is coded to work with it properly.
Using the latest XDA app, premium or free.. do you guys still get notified whether its message or thread subscription??? After updating to ICS, I noticed it doesnt notify me anymore..
Idk what you guys are talking about. I've had ICS since the nexus s and ALWAYS tick 2d gpu with every flash. Its become second nature for me. It forces gpu acceleration throughout. There's absolutely no harm done by this. And if you say there is, send a log cat of the error to the dev because its the roms fault.

Screen off power button delay

Im being extremely picky but im going to ask anyway. Im comming from the s3. And the note2 blows it away In my opinion. Except for this 1 small thing l, and its bugging the crap out of me. When the screen is off and I press the power button why in the world does it take so long for the screen to come on.......I see no reason for it..phone is blazing fast otherwise. Anyone know of a setting for this? Or experiencing the same thing?

I upgraded GN to takju-jop40c. and can not locate the path to enable USB debugging under the path "Settings"-->“Developer options" because there is no the path "Settings"-->“Developer options"
Anyone would advise me the reason? Any mistake I did when upgraded to JOP40C?

S beam widget

I find myself transferring and using the NFC/S beam a lot with my friends. I don't like to keep it on all the time to save battery.
Do you guys know of any toggle or widget to make the on/off process faster?
What do you use?
Sent from my SGH-T999
I think Switch pro widget allows you to make a an NFC on/off toggle widget. Check it out:

What do you mean by that? There is no such thing as settings/s beam without going through "more settings", at least on Touchwiz. Please elaborate.

Thanks for the suggestion, I have downloaded the app and it does have an NFC toggle that takes you straight to the NFC/S beam setting. It would have been nice for the switch to turn it on.

I'm completely stock as well, when you choose the settings Widget, it would give you the option to choose s beam, a lot easier than going under settings, and more settings...
