Can you add whatever app you want? Let's say I use handcent. Can I set the active notification to handcent instead of the stock app?
In other words, can you set any app to use the active notification or does each app developer have to support it?

As long as it makes notifications you can make it an active notifications and you can remove the stock app as you wish.

nope, it's all the time. It when you touch the lock and use it to unlock/view/ignore. It's the haptic feedback.

Yep and it's ridiculously annoying. I just went to the AT&T store to see if their display model is as loud as mine and it is, along with the 3 other phones they let me look at. That kinda sets my mind at ease knowing my phone isn't defective- I was seriously considering exchanging it based on the vibration alone. But now I'm keeping it, and I'm happy.

Oh okay, I don't mind that.
Mostly out of habit, I've been hitting the power button to get the regular unlock screen which doesn't vibrate with haptic disabled.

My take is as long as your old lady isn't frequenting this thread she's not likely to get past it to your text messages its not a govnt retina scanner but it def keeps most people out. Even if you left your phone somewhere it would be more than enough security to someone who doesn't know what you look like

I just saw a Samsung add on FB and it showed a gear getting a call with picture ID. does anyone know if the Gear can do this or is it good Photoshop on the add.
Yes as long as you have a picture set for the person that is calling you there picture will show on the watch.

Pictures do work on the watch. It seems to be sporadic IMO. I havent really paid attention to the pattern. I dont know if its a resolution issue or if the pic has to be linked to a certain account on the phone or what. The Samsung kiosk in Best Buy in my area was useless. I knew more about the watch than they did.

you seem to be overreacting. he simply asked how contact pictures works. there is absolutly nothing with using gear with other devices. as it has been stated before, not all functions work.

Sorry if I sounded rude. It is just that if he knows the Gear doesn´t get full functionality with his Nexus, then why is he wondering why he doesnt get caller id and photo.... It is pretty obvious it is for lack of compatibility.
In my case, installing all apks on my htc one (except weather and music, obiusly),extracted from gear manager apk i can see the names of my contacts when they call me. I haven't photos with my contacts to try it

Thank you both for useful posts / help! I re installed the apks from gear manager 1.5 and now works - I have caller ID and photos.
I think I must have missed one apk when installing the first time.
Now to try ang get notifications to work.
I found this app though a bunch of searching. (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mattprecious.notisync)
I think it is close to getting us to seeing notifications from any app on the gear. So, far with things set up the way I have them it only vibrates/rings when I get something. It could be that I don't have hangouts installed on my watch (didn't want the google apps...didn't see a need).
Could someone with the google apps (and possibly the status bar installed via Aroma) test this out and see if it gets us further?
Only other thread I could find: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2560308 It mentions battery life issues. I'll test these out tomorrow.
Overnight the watch went down to 87% battery. I may try again tonight without it justvto see.
I can choose to get notifications on my gear from all of my phone apps without this.
Am I not understanding something with this thread?
I think I'm a bit lost here too. I can get notifications from any app on my phone without this app.

I wouldn't say badly. I'm able to spend an entire day at Disneyland (about 16 hours) getting/checking notifications using this and still have enough battery power for the 1 1/2 hour ride home. Sure you would get better battery life without it - but you would also get no notifications (non-touchwiz) without it too.

Been using it a lot lately and its pretty slow for me. It says, “Calling“ twice before actually dialing out. It takes about a minute+ to call out as opposed to me just opening the phone and doing it myself.

I only started using it a few days ago when I'm driving and it's always been slow. Yes, I've tried booting into recovery and wiping cache and what not. I just figured it was supposed to be slow.

I don't have any problems with battery life, but a lot of people seem to complain about it. At midnight last night I was at 28% after taking it off the cradle at 7 am. Right now I'm at 80% at 3:30pm EST after taking it off the cradle at 7 am. I don't let the screen stay on and I keep my brightness at 3.
Does this update break anything.. Root wise? I just got notified about it
I got the notification
I'd imagine that if rooted, it wouldn't install. Just like a nexus device. If it did though, root would usually be lost. Give it a go and let us know
