Multi picture works with nexus? - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, was wondering if it's just me or this app doesn't work with nexus, tried setting individual settings for each screen but it's not working only shows that it needs to reload or setup. Any help appreciated or another way to get multiple wallpapers for each screen.
Thanks.

[Q] Nexus S browser

Guys, need help with my new Nexus S. How to turn off mobile view in browser? I prefer to use desktop view. On my previous phone[Desire] there was an option to turn on/off mobile view, so far couldn't find it i Nexus. Thanks a lot.
Ditto........
about:debug
Go into settings and change the UA to Desktop. This does not survive a reboot though.

edit: do you put that in the URL, hit go, then go to settings and there will be more at the bottom of the list.
BUT from the way it looks, it's not a quick change, like it was in my HTC phone is it? That's supremely annoying. Some websites I want PC view, others mobile is better.
Has someone made an app or something to make it flip back and forth much easier/faster?

It would be much appreciated.
Yes you put about:debug in the URL and then you should see some hidden settings under settings in the browser...

[Q] Android Beam Wont Recieve?

Hey everyone,
So I have a Nexus 5 red and just for kicks I wanted to try out the NFC but it does not seem to work correctly and I cannot figure out why.
The phone I was trying to connect with is an S4. I am able to send them pics via NFC but when they try to send me something instead of getting the pic, the google play store opens and then everything just kind of stops.
Anyone know the reason for this?
Thanks
Maybe because the s4 and touchwiz .. I've tried as well bro.. That's my only guess..

I thought that too but I figured if that was the case it would not let me send anything either. I can send but I just can't get anything back. Its also weird that it always opens the play store. Is there some kind of app I am supposed to have for this?
I don't think so... I'm really thinking it's cause touchwiz...

Works fine both ways between my phone and the Note II.

Shift worker app

Does anyone know what shift worker app is the best on the android market? I rely on these apps to plan my months and the one I used to use on my iPhone doesn't appear to be available. Any help would be really appreciated!!

I just bit the bullet and entered all my shifts into Google Calendar. My shift pattern repeats after 10 weeks, so although it took me a little while to get those first ten entered, the "repeat every xx...." function in Calendar means I never have to mess around with it again.
Also, having it in my calendar means that Google Now can give me reminders when to leave for work early if, for instance, the traffic is bad that day.
Plus, if I ever move away from Android (unlikely) then my Calendar can come with me, no issues - rather than facing the same problem which you have now.
To actually display my calendar I like Calendar Pad's widget. Also I have Calendar Status Pro in my notification shade, which is handy because I have a constant reminder of calendar appointments every time I pull down the shade.
I'm always interested in trying out new solutions if they can provide better functionality though, so I'd be interested to hear what other people use too
That's an idea I had already contemplated but my shifts change every 5 weeks. I used an app on the iPhone called 'Shift worker' made by a company called production shed. I've emailed them to see if they have the same app available for android but I highly doubt it! Shame a dev couldn't come up with something that we could really make great use of! All the apps I've saw just look mega complicated. Might need to resort to Google calendar though and integrate it with Google now.

Arbeitskalender is also a good app. You can find it in PlayStore. I am sorry, I don't have the link right now.

Slimport Resolution/Density Question

I connected my phone to an older monitor via slimport->hdmi->dvi. works great except the native resolution for the monitor is 1680x1050. so the image is scaled small on screen. I was able to change resolution via console "wm size" command so that it now fills the screen and changed the density so text is the appropriate size, but the notification bar, nav bar, and mouse pointer are huge taking up tons of real estate.
Wanted to know if anyone has a suggestion of an app that will make things fit better when i connect to the monitor and easily revert once I disconnect. I really like being able to use my phone as a mini computer that I can connect whenever I want.
Thanks in advance.

You can change the density of apps individually using xposed + "app settings" module. So you could lower the density further on systemui for example.

I bought the official SlimPort a couple months ago and it works great. As far as the picture fitting better, I use MX Player for all video. It has a ton of options for display size and other tweaks. Using a monitor is probably why you are having issues with display size. I have 1 newer HDTV and a 5 year old HDTV. I get 1080p with my SlimPort & MX Player. Does it have the same display issues on a TV?
NEXUS 5
Yeah works great on my TV but I have it connected to a monitor because I use it for homework and random emailing with a Bluetooth most and keyboard.
My ideal situation would be that when I connect it to the slimport it would automatically switch resolution and DPI to kind of a desktop mode.

Any other suggestions?

I agree, using the Nexus as a substitute for a computer like you describe is something I definitely would like to do too. Any advice regarding automatic switch of resolution and DPI would be greatly appreciated.
Still nothing. ?

Dpi system wide is controlled via the build prop so a reboot is required to apply it.
With root, i could easily write a Tasker task that will edit the build prop and reboot the device. Anything above that wouldn't be possible

Note 3 has amnesia, never remembers which app to use!

Does anyone else have this issue?
Whenever I try to play a video, it asks me which app to use.
But when I touch ALWAYS, it never remembers?
This happens to a lot of files, not just video.
I have a T-Mobile note 3 on 4.4.2.
My friend has a Verizon note 3 on 4.3 and she has the same issue too!

Mine does this for specific files, not all of them. Anything I try to open with Tapatalk won't stick.
Hi,
the default app feature doesn't work for most filetypes on either of my devices (S3, Note 3, Note 10.1 2014). Seems to be a Samsung bug?

I think this is Kitkat Fever.
Hi @Neo3D goto settings>>app manager tap menu and clear defaults. Now when ever it asks you for which app to run click always and I think this will save them as default apps.

Interesting, I do not have this issue whatsoever - and I used a lot of different apps that require specificity such as Tapatalk, Link Bubble, etc

One of your installed apps seems to be resetting the default selection that you have chosen. I've had this issue one time.

Mine's been doing it since the reset, even before I installed any apps....
ever since KK, WiFi passwords disappear and it has nothing to do with restarting, i even cleaned cache/dalvik just to see if that is doing it, nope...
Then the Active Apps widget, it is not really accurate in 3rd party launchers, especially if they have the feature to lock the homescreen, many times it shows 8 apps open, and not more then two are shown on the list.
For wifi passwords i used this method.. Second Post

No reseting since 1-2 weeks.. Maybe this method really help

This only happens when a new simular app is installed or when using a new file not associated.
I have never had a wifi reset.
Using stock tw rooted and some bloat removed.
dont forget the thanks button if I helped out!!
