Ok so I am trying to send a picture to a Samsung g3 via Android beam and it would send? It sends Internet pages and apps but it wound send a picture... It makes the sound but does not do anything else?
Now when I try to send a pic from the g3 to my phone the g3 makes the nosie and shrinks the pic down and says tab to send.. But once you tap it it acts like it sends but it does not send...
Any ideas?

I don't think NFC can transfer 2mb+ but somebody correct me if ok wrong. It is used to transfer information like contacts,apps,web pages,YouTube links

Android Beam doesn't send photos via NFC in ICS. That was a feature added in JB. Once we get the Jelly Bean update on our phones, it should work. I think it should work if your phone is running CM10.
Thanks guys.

If the item keeps shrinking and does not send, it is usually because the NFC antennas are not lined up correctly. I assume the GS3's NFC is at exactly the middle and ours is about 1/3 down from the top, so remember to pull the Evo LTE down a bit. Android beam seems to send anything Google apps related well, but nothing else (it will just send the receiver to the play store page). The only things that send reliably for me are contacts. Pictures never seem to send well. It just makes the connection sound but doesn't give me an option to send anything.

I wonder if he paired with blutooth first then used NFC? I would like to know how also
Sent from my EVO using xda premium
As far as I know, Android Beam is not capable of transferring large files. It only utilizes the NFC capabilities of the phone, so it is limited to small files, such as webpage links, app links, playlists, etc. The app on the GS3 utilizes the Wi-Fi in conjunction with the NFC to allow for the transfer of large files.
Down load bump from market . Works great . I'm sending things to my girls LG viper running ics as of 2 data ago

basicly what the gs3 does is when u use the NFC to send picture it actually links the phone via WiFi direct and send the file that way.

Blackberry sems to be the only one with a reliable + official Facebook app from my experience.
And that phone is for dinosaurs.
Neither my iPod Touch 4 or EVO gets them consistently.
The facebook app is an embarrassment to that company. I truly can't believe they havent done something about it. Google+ has one of the best looking and functioning mobile apps I have personally ever used, fb should take notes.

The FB app sucked on the OG EVO. It's not the phone. It's ridiculous that a website of that stature has such a crappy app.
I agree, the app is so slow I usually just give up before the content is fully loaded and turn on my computer haha.
Slow as hell on my One X aswell, almost bought an s3 in a rage
You would figure for a multi billion dollar company they could do a simple app. It worked way better before they added everything. I normally go through the browser anyways. I don't need up to date notifications but if you did why not turn on text notification? I mean you get unlimited texts anyways.

Funny you mention that. I haven't noticed any ads on the mobile version and I figure they just use our data as "payment". Overall I kind of want to ween off of Facebook. I feel they sold out just at the right time.

It sucks cause Facebook sucks they can't even run a chat service without people"signing on and off" all the time

Ww need a new social network. Every dog has it's day, and maybe Facebook has had theirs? Although it should be a network defined by it's users, not controlled by profit and exposure.
FYI, the facebook app for Blackberry is actually made by RIM, but with facebook's support. That's why it doesn't suck as bad.
Also, facebook's app on iOS (both iPhones and iPads) suck. Countless mistakes and bugs and they never update it either. I usually just end up using the mobile web version of it.
They have no real mobile strategy. That's why the stock is crapping out. If they had a plan to make $$$ off a mobile platform they might care about its quality and ability to draw customers for advertisers.

At least with Sense's Friendstream, Facebook at least seems functional (to a degree).
Google+ is great, just none of my friends are on it lol, but it does things Facebook wish it could do. I love the messenger on G+. While trying to use Facebook's, snail mail may be a more effective use of time lol.
Sorry for the bad quote, I wish the XDA app would work better with my Transformer :banghead:

It only works with certain apps like YouTube, people, browser. I can't remember the rest. Does your phone get the chime when you have them back to back?

No it didn't do anything can't really test it again though bc my friend left
Sent from my EVO using xda premium
On the galaxy nexus, you actually have to line up the phones so that the evo is about and inch higher than the gnex, i tried to do the same with my friend's phone and she gave me these wierd looks because i put them together with the tops lined up and kept smacking them together like i was playing barbie and ken makeout session.
Apparently the antennas on the phones have to be aligned just right to get it to work. I used a webpage on her phone using chrome beta and it tried to launch the url on my phone via opera.
Lmao makes sense

i was fighting with the LGOG and a Nexus S earlier today on the same thing.
the only thing that NFC seemed to communicate was that i was using FileExpert and it sent the NexusS to google app store so i could download it.
was unable to send pictures or files from the LGOG to the Nexus S.
they didn't seem to connect properly.
LGOG is running Base v.5
Nexus S is running CM10
You can send links and basic text between WP and android, but not pictures

Also what I heard is pictures are a JB feature. I wasn't able to do it rom my OG and my wife's s3 on jb.
Sent from my LG-E970 using xda premium
Yup, tried NFC out with my E970 and a S3 and I couldn't send or receive pictures. Web links and everything else worked fine.
I think what is the limitation is with JB they increased the size you can send hence pictures. This is all from the back of my mind from quick forum glances but I'm pretty sure that's why. Get aokp, cm10, or an official stock JB rom and you shouldn't have issues anymore.

My e970 can't send anything to my friend htc one x. Now i 'm using 4.1.2 stock room. Any body help me! (I already active nfc and android beam)
When she invokes her S Beam, my LGOG vibrates, but nothing happens. Same thing when we try with my N7. My N7 has actually sent her something, but I haven't been able to receive anything from her on either device. Is there another app we should be using?

You don't have s beam. Use android beam on both devices. Far as I know your Sol on pictures and video sharing until jb.
Ok, well, Bump worked; for anyone else out there looking for a solution. But good to know it'll work on JB.

Here's what I've tried
I tried using NFC from my LGOG to my wife's SGS3,
I was not able to do photos, but my be able with wifi direct. I am going to play with it some more.
I was able to do the following transfers through NFC:
1) a contact
2) a web url
3) a youtube video and it started where I "bumped" the phones.
I am currently taking application requests. I recently learned how to write apps, and now I would like to try out my skills but have no ideas of my own. I need legitimate requests however.

how bout an app to allow you to switch phones for example if i have a gs3 and an evo lte if i want to switch from different phones the app would make that happen similar to the same function of a sim card

Any way you could make an app that can replicate what s-beam does on the SIII and note 2? Using android beam to initiate a transfer of files by creating a WiFi direct link to nfc devices that make contact. The EVO has a WiFi direct option but doesn't do anything with it. Maybe you can expand on it?
App for business organization?
Looking for an app for a county-wide chamber of commerce that would allow member and general public to search for members and also offer what nearby to them as they're nearby.

You'd be my hero if you could do this. If you search the market for an app called "The little black book", you'll see a very outdated app that has all kinds of problems because it hasn't been updated in forever. It is the only app on the market that does what it does. If you could create an app similar to the aforementioned app, with similar features and layout, I'd happily pay for it, as would many others, I'm sure. If you need any other info/input, I'd love to help you in any way. Thank you for your time and the generous offer.

Being an Urban Explorer I wanted an app that acts as a toolbox for my explorations. Haven't seen anything Quite like this on the store.
It would be nice to have a main page sorted by exploration locations, and each location tab has the option to add scout photos, voice recordings, a camera based scanner to scan documents, link for maps, journals, etc. I could go into more details... Right now I have to use like 5 different apps or more for this... You could have fun theming it all dark and/or rustic like an abandoned building...
