      Got my rings but having some issues...

      When I go into the unlock app I setup my ring and test it..it gives me a tone to say its working (I'm assuming that's what it means anyway)

      However when I actually enable the ring lock it never works and I always have to enter the gmail emails address and password to get back into my phone.

      Any ideas?

            @Ether try holding the ring on that sweet spot for a second or two (hopefully you tagged where that spot is).

              I've tried all the different hot spots on the nexus 5 to no avail i'm starting to succombe to the fact its a paper weight. I will just use it to hold little bits of data

                Did you write data on the tag you registered for unlocking? since this is a common error. it's currently not possible to have one ringside to unlock and store data st the same time. So I suggest to use one side for unlocking and one for data.

                  I have transparent for unlock and black for data they both make NFC ping in the nexus5 NFC settings its purely the unlock that doesn't work.

                    try to remove the tag in the unlock app and add it again as a key. sometimes this helps

                        @Ether In the "Manage Keys" section of the app, are your keys ACTIVE or INACTIVE? If you can hear the tone, it's more likely something in the NFC Unlock app.
