Is anyone else unable to get dashclock to daydream? - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin

I believe daydream only works when you have your phone plugged in to charge and it has a long screen timeout. Unless that's just a CM thing

For some reason, AT&T or Samsung removed the clock option from daydream. I found this free app that works pretty well to use instead:

It doesn't have the weather, but it has a fantastic brightness feature that lets you turn the screen all the way down to where it's barely visible if you dock it where you sleep.

Yea. I get how it works. Thanks tho.

Great find on the app

I only wish it had weather too, but it is great setting it so low that it doesn't disturb me at night.

[SOLVED] How did they do that?

So, I think it was at some Google show featuring Jelly Bean where they took a JB phone and touched screens with a JB tablet and it transferred data between them. I have a Galaxy Nexus and the N7 and tried making them kiss so much they requested a private room, but I can't figure out how to do that data share between them.
Anyone know what I'm talking about and how to do it?

I had the same problem trying to get the NFC chips to line up or something. I ended up flipping my gnex upside down when they were back to back before I could beam something over.

It's my understanding that it only works with Google apps right now. To get it working make sure both NFC and Android Beam are turned on. After that open up something like the stock gallery or chrome, put both devices back to back and then tap the screen of the phone sending the data. I've never really been able to get it to work with my N7, but it works really well with my Galaxy S III and my brother's S II.

I believe you are talking about NFC? make sure you have it enabled. it is in settings, under wireless&networks, tap "more" and you can enable NFC.
Line up the Gnex battery to the "Nexus" on the back of the tablet in any app like browser,gallery, contacts, etc and it should say touch to beam when they are in range. Worked fine between both my Nexus(I run mwalts stock rooted roms)and S3 with the 7.

Sweet, it worked! I had to move the phone around on the back of the N7. Eventually it made a noise and I was able to beam.
Thanks for the help guys!

Google account failing to connect

Anyone else noticing an issue where they wake the screen and there's a notification that your Google account failed to connect? I'm seeing this on both my N10 and Gnex. Maybe it's a 4.2 issue?

Seeing issue in n7 and s3 here as well
Swyped while swerving from my Samsung GS3
Yeah, I reauthenticated and it reconnected. Seemed like a Google server down-time or something.
Droid Razr - Running JB 4.1.2....Same issue. You are not alone
Same here on 2 Galaxy S3's a Galaxy Tab my Nexus and a Zoom. Must be a Google issue.
Thanks for confirming this. Sounds like a Google issue.

NFC problem

hey guys im in stock rooted with stock recovery on mdl and the NFC feature doesnt work with any phone i try with and S3 a note 2 and also with the HTC one and nothing.! and the other phones works perfect with each other
Stock rooted here...no issues with NFC between my S4 and my wife's Note 2. I do have to find the sweet spot by moving the phones until nfc connects.
Both phones are rocking otterbox commuters too

Should I return my S5?

My Android System is constantly at 30% or more for battery percentage usage and is higher than my screen. I have not saw my Android System lower than the screen in terms of battery percentage used and I've had the phone for about 3 days..

Narrow down which app is causing it what apps have you installed . more than likely it's a app

What worked for me:
Un-sync Samsung account
Turn off Samsung App store
Turn off Samsung App Widget
Turn off all the AT&T garbage.

Pretty much standard Samsung behaviour (Note 3 is the same)
Get shot of Samsung apps (just freeze HUB as it causes rotation problems on the N3 and may on the S5 also)
Log out of your Samsung account
Turn off GPS
Turn off Air/Gestures etc unless you really need them.
If you can rid your device of G+ and Google Search etc as they hog processes also.
Keep your syncing to a minium, try not to have every app syncing all the time at once, stagger the sync time a bit.
Grab Wake lock detector and monitor what's keeping your device awake/ using processes etc.
Usually, a debloat on Samsung devices tends to sort out Android System, But I noticed after I moved to Kitkat on my Note 3 that Android system rarely dropped below 18% or so, unless I used an AOSP ROM.

I think the problem was NiLS FP. Ever since I uninstalled it my battery has been amazing. I uninstalled it last night at 2am, then woke up today at 11am and my battery did NOT drop not even 1% throughout the night!
From previous experiences, if in doubt, take it back.
