So today I used Google Maps to search for a location. I did not appreciate the ads at the bottom of the search results.
Is there a way to disable the ads? Shall I just reinstall Sprint Navigation(telenav is good) and use that instead?
Thank you thank you
edit: should have noted that i do use the turn by turn nav. so an online, gps enabled option is what id like. ill check out the option you noted, t12icky0
i had the same issue..i just didnt like Google maps. went through many different programs but eventaully ended up getting an APP called " IGO"...its an offline as well as online map directions service. you would just need to download the maps for you state(or any state).
ITS GREAT because you dont need an internet connection as it can run the maps and such offline unless you wanna use GPS(or anything else).
Where do you download iGo I don't see it in the market??

IM NOT SURE IF IGO is for a rooted phone...as i have a rooted phone so if anyone i sent the stuff to please email me back if it does not work on a NON-rooted phone so i can make sure to let people know. Im pretty sure tho it does not have to be rooted.

I was not talking about iGo, I was referring to the adfree program he was referring too

I'm pretty sure this is a paid app.
When I go to the market it just asks me to install. But I am not in the right region.
No price there. Free I think. I would love to have the apk.
i am from germany and i can download it from the market

Uhm....really. Doen't work for me.
Any chance you could get me the apk???
I tried again. It says it's incompatible with my device because of the location. :-(
Not sure why Germany works and not Holland.
As far as I can tell, if you don't have a car dock, it's useless. I tried installing it (in the US) and all it did was ask for a dock and wouldn't let me do anything else. Not sure if it's specific to the RAZR dock either.
Are you talking about this app?
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.motorola.cp.carfinder
Its free, but appears to rely on the car dock. It sounds like it is just storing current GPS or aGPS location when the phone is removed from the car dock. There are other GPS programs that can set placemarkers without the car dock required but you would have to manually do it.
Yes talking about that app.
I have the dock . So reallllly need the apk
Would be amazing.

Hi All,
I'd like to know if there is any app you can use to reply the message by text for the gear. Right now we can only go with voice.
Thanks.

I can't get tablet talk to work.
I installed the version someone listed here. I open it in the gear & try to connect, nothing happens for probably 15 seconds & then it crashes.
How did you get it to work??

I used version 1.74 and had it installed using Wondershare MobileGo. It worked just fine, but like someone mentioned in another post... you can see the phone number, but no name. It does work just perfect for conversating.
I even upgraded my phone version of Tablet Talk it it worked. It would just relay the that the two are diff versions, but other than that no big deal.
Good Luck!

That is exactly what I did (and used 1.74) but I could never get it to work and ended up uninstalling it.

welI give up I guess.
I just installed 1.74 again. It opens & seems to be working the first time, but crashes shortly after that and then crashes every time I open it.

If you installed it with Wondershare then I'm not sure what the issue would be. I know mine ran fine. The times it would crash is if I clicked on the contacts generic pic. Sorry, all I can say is try it again, make sure you have the right version or maybe try another version or wait for them to perfect it I guess. .

How do you get the paid app to install in the watch??
I bought it and have it installed in my Note 3.
When I try to install it in my gear with wondershare, it tells me it is "already installed" & refuses to reinstall even though I removed the 1.7.4 version that didn't work for me.

How did you remove it? It should have overwritten anything there. I inboxed you a link to the 1.9.4 .apk I used. Try Moborobo too.

Have you tried "Here We Go"?

As far as I know it's free and pretty well established.

Can someone tell me how to make Here maps work on the Watch 3? I've downloaded and can see my location. What I can't seem to do is enter a destination location. Well, I can enter one, but nothing happens. Also, if I try to download a state map, I receive the error message saying I have no space, but I have 4 GB available on the watch.
Looks like Here needs an update for latest tizen/watch3
Not asking for the storage permision so can't download offline maps.
Am I the only one that can't see Here, either on the watch or the store?
Another fan of Here We Go maps!

So, it turns out that Australia doesn't get Here maps on the Watch3 by default
However, if you VPN your phone to the US, you can install it from there. Worked for me this morning. The app works fine once you turn the VPN off too.
Here we go pushed an update that made more faster and has offline capabilities.
Can confirm it's blisteringly fast and the camera is amazing.
Quick updates.....
Not tested yet - android auto.
Can't make work - vibration notifications.
Origin OS, I presume?
Any problems with Google apps?
Yup latest Origin.
Full Google play etc. No Google stuff that doesn't work I've found.
Gpay working too.

Not sure why but my gpay is not working.
Btw it looks like we can't remove some chinese stuff via adb without root .Which is sad.
Yeah I found that with ADB.
So Gpay is odd. The app doesn't work (not ready yet updating error) BUT allowing my bank to add the card to Google pay via its own app worked and allows me to use it.

What's your thoughts on the battery life with the new processor? Does it last a day after heavy usage?
What is the message or error you’re getting when trying to open Google Wallet?

Not ready as updating or something. But after I added a card via my banks app, it will let me pay fine. Just need to choose Google pay in the NFC settings.
But you can’t launch the Wallet app and for example switch between different cards, right? Did you try to reinstall, delete the app data and so on?
Can you check the power consumption of single core and multi core in Geekbench using perfdog? i can lend you an account and tell you how to measure it. It's not difficult.

Cheers mate. Its my only missing piece of info before pulling the trigger on purchasing. Seems to be plenty of reviews out there focusing on the camera quality
Shame about AA and Gpay though. Any other quirks worth mentioning?
Could you make screenshots or a simple screen recording of the camera app and all its features? Especially
Video mode: Supported Resolutions and Framerates
LOG / Cine Video Mode: Supported Resolutions and Framerates
Portrait Video Mode: Supported Resolutions and Framerates
Also: How would you root? Vivo still does not allow bootloader unlocking afaik, and the glitch from X70 and X80 seems to be fixed.
Does the timeline in Google maps work? Thank you
By the way is your phone ringing when you get a call on messenger ? I can't manage to get it ringing . It only vibrates with the screen off .
