There a setting in Google Talk that makes you "Unavailable" when screen is off.

Tap the three dots, top right, select settings and Google account...

The setting is under General and "Away when screen is off" will be ticked, I would guess your friend with the S3 does not have this ticked?

Hey,

Not sure what you mean by the "Unavailable" option, but we both do have the "Away when screen off" selected on our devices. Thanks

I think this is a great thread. It will be very helpful to a lot of people. I like never use my computer or phone anymore so I digress to the Tri crowd.

hope so, but haven't seen anyone necessarily say they have the same issue - hopefully this can be figured out though

FYI

I did some testing just now, and it seemed to send to the computer when the tablet screen was off, and send to the tablet when the tablet screen was on - so I think it will check to see the tablet, and if the tablet's screen is off, it will send to the computer;

However, I asked my friend with the Galaxy S3 this, and she said that even when her phone screen is off and she is on the computer, the video chat will 'wake' the phone and send to the phone instead.


edit::
the video chat still went to the tablet even though the tablet screen was off - the very next attempt with no change, and the video chat went to the computer.

Wow. Even if you are signed out on the tablet?

Nono - only if I am signed on on the tablet - I guess that's an important distinction - you could say, well just sign out of the tablet every time you are at home to chat, which is fine and is a temporary solution, but I'm wondering if anyone else has this issue, and why/why not. When I eventually own a few devices, I will need to solve this.

For example, when you have a laptop and a desktop that are both signed onto g-mail, the video chat will go to the "active" device, whichever you were last chatting on. This doesn't seem to be the case for computer + tablet/phone

I'm sorry - allow me to clarify here and also modify the post:

You can do video chatting through g-mail's chat function (via an internet browser like chrome) on a standard computer.

You can also do video chatting through the Nexus's google talk function.

Whenever someone tries to video chat you, a notification is sent to start the video chat. This video chat is always sent to the Nexus, even when I have been chatting through g-mail on my desktop and my Nexus doesn't even have it's screen on.


Basically, the video chat is always sent to my tablet instead of my computer - not sure why though.


No Google+, or Google hangout - standard google video chat through g-mail and through "talk" app on the tablet. The video chat will always get sent to the talk app on the tablet.

ps

you can still do standard video chats in g-mail: when you have a chat dialogue box open, you can select more on the upper left. For example, If I attempted to initiate a video chat to someone with my problem, the video chat would always get sent to their nexus instead of their computer, even if he/she were chatting on the computer

A friend of mine has the Galaxy S3 and has this same problem as well.


Just to further clarify - let's say you have the Nexus, with google talk and video chat capability, and a Droid Razr, with google talk and video chat capability, and someone attempts to send you a video chat - to which device does that video chat get sent to, and what determines that?

Got a small issue with the nexus - I use my Win7 desktop all the time for video chatting through g-mail via chrome, but whenever the Nexus is on and has google talk open, it defaults to sending video chat to the nexus - anyone else with this issue?

Nexus 7 General Discussion / What do you use YOUR Nexus 7 for?
« on: July 20, 2012, 11:26:30 AM »
After the initial oohs and ahhs and toying with various things on your Nexus 7, what has it settled down to serve as for you?

Frankly, I'm struggling to find many uses for this guy. I've got a desktop and two laptops, and I thought the laptops would never be turned on again after I received it, but that hasn't happened yet.

i actually just turn mine off

You can download as many "squares" as you want.

I hope everyone realizes that just because you cache an area on the map does not mean you will be able to search for places or use turn by turn navigation.  Those features still need a data connection to work.

The idea behind cache map data is to for example you are out camping and your phone or tablet has no data connection, you can still use the map to see exactly where you are and where you are going just like a standard Garmin GPS handheld. 

Also, you cannot cache satellite mode as that file would be huge with all the detail.  You can only cache the standard map layer as far as i know.  I have not tried topographical yet.

i thought you can do turn by turn with the  nexus?

All modern lithium batteries and chargers have circuitry which stops charging when the battery reaches a charged state. I have charged both of my tablets overnight since day one without any noticeable effect on either of them and I plan to charge my N7 overnight as well.

good to hear, thanks. i haven't been using the nexus all that much to be honest, so i actually turn mine off for most of the day - from when I sleep at night until when I get home from work my nexus is off, don't see a point to leaving it running
