Google account failing to connect - Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

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.

One X, Tab 8.9, Galaxy Note, Nexus 7, and Nexus 10 all having this issue for the last couple days.
Actually glad to see it's widespread in a way, had me a little paranoid.

Must be Google issue as all my android devices are seeing this message

nexus 4 and galaxy nexus same issue

hi guys am new here but I just have switched my galaxy nexus on and the 4.2 update was ready to install. As soon as I installed it I started having the same problem as I have on my nexus 4, and that is they both get hot when browsing or watching YouTube. I never had this on my gnex before the update to 4.2. I think its a problem with 4.2. Anyway else noticed this?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app

Anyone have a 4.1.2 image?

Loving the n4 however having issues with 4.2
Wife has a nexus 7 which had 0 issues with WiFi and Bluetooth before the update and now has issues with both. My nexus 4 is having the very same issues as well now.
I wish I made a nandroid when I first got the phone but of course I was too eager right away and updated. I searched for 4.1.2 but have had no luck.
Anyone else know?
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda premium
i think it came with a prerelease software of 4.2... i don't think we ever had 4.1.2.. not sure didn't check before ota..
You had no luck because the device never had 4.1.2 to begin with.

NFC Sharing

Has anybody tried to use the NFC feature? I tried to use it with a galaxy nexus and an S3 and no luck...this is a feature I was really looking forward to
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda premium
You have to activate it. Turn NFC on in settings >>more >>NFC.

I was just doing it today at Thanksgiving dinner with 2 different Galaxy S3 phones. It works really well.
Depends what your trying to send. I tried sending a picture using beam from my note 2 to my nexus 4 and it didn't work, it did using drop box. I'm assuming it had to do with the two gallery apps not being the same.
It is activated. And I tried sending photos too but it didn't work. I sent a YouTube video though. Its all I could send
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda premium
sending pics only work on Jellybean. If the other device was still ICS it won't go. I tried to send a pic to my GF's Skyrocket and it wouldn't go. sent one to my sister's gNex with Jellybean and it went just fine.

It's because they don't use the same gallery app.

Not true. Something wrong on your end. I sent a pic from my nexus 4 to note 2 today. Used NFC and gallery open only on nexus 4.

No it isn't. The Gallery app doesn't have anything to do with it.
When you share a picture over beam on a stock Jelly Bean device the receiving device understands that the content to be transferred is a picture and opens a Bluetooth serial connection to the sending device. The file is then transferred over Bluetooth.
Samsung has enhanced this process starting with the S3 (S-Beam) to use Wifi-Direct for much faster transfers. However they invented their own way of doing things (as they often do). Google stated they have plans to migrate to Wifi Direct as well in a later release once the standards flush out (it didn't make it into 4.1 though and doesn't appear to have made it in to 4.2).
The issue from the Note 2 to the N4 is likely a mismatch in that the Note 2 is going to try to use S-Beam (which doesn't work with non Samsung Touchwiz devices) and the N4 is still looking to leverage Bluetooth tunneling.
Going the other way (N4 - Note 2) should work assuming it's running Jelly Bean.
that guy right there^^^^ Nailed it!

Nexus detected by anti theft security system

Odd things happen lately, no matter where I go with my nexus 4 anti theft systems at local stores like JC penny, Macy, old navy. Once I enter the store, the anti theft system beeps what the f**k? Or I leave the store. Anybody experiencing this?
I definitely can't say that I have

Nah, I don't think it's NFC, the maximum range is roughly around 10 cm, which is relatively short.
But what makes your think it's the Nexus that is triggering the alarm?
Well thought it was my vape at first. Its the phone in my op cuz happens to me and the wife she is stock I'm rooted. And its the only thing I'm my pocket when it happens JC Penny's old navy ross's k mart Walmart . its weird
Never had this happen nowhere in Germany. However I bought some boots once and months later in a random store the alarms went off. Showed one shoe was not unlocked when I bought it

Probably restore stock settings and lock my phone?

It does it to me on my rooted and my wife's stock nexus
This has never happened to me with either of my phones (N4 running AOSP custom rom or Atrix HD running CM11) or any of my past phones (iPhone 3GS jailbroken, Atrix 4G CM10), but my Surface Pro 2 does set off those things when going into my school library

The solution would probably be to stop hiding under your clothes the T-shirt that you grabbed from previous store!!
That would stop the noise ?
