Hi I just got the gear yesterday and ive seen some pictures that other gg users have their icons colored instead of the regular white. Anybody care to chime in on how to do it. Thanks in advance.

Most of the apps you download from inside the Gear Manager App (Samsung apps) have color icons instead of the stock white icons that are used in the Gear system theme. Also, many user have rooted their Gears and are running regular Android apps on the watch. Welcome to the Gear.

The point is to ask questions on the forum so other people who have the same issues can get help as well...not set up a private IT department for yourself.

New XDA Premium Android App Released!
For a while now, we've been working on a premium version of the extremely popular XDA Android App (which has been downloaded half a million times). The premium version, now on sale for just $0.99, removes the ads, plus brings the following enhancements that the free app does not have:
+ Ability to collapse top bar to maximize screen real estate
+ Access to Legacy forums
+ Ability to add forum shortcuts to your Android homescreen for super quick access to your favorites
+ Custom XDA color scheme (changeable to default through Settings)
+ Choose whether to land on first post, last post, or first unread post within a given thread
+ Bug fixes to enhance speed
If you want to try it out (and if you hate it, Android Market lets you get a full refund within 15 minutes), search the market for "XDA Premium".

I like it better than the free version.
The default colors match the website.
It seems more responsive and maybe that's just perception, but it also doesn't have to grab the ads, either.
Choosing where to start when the app first loads is great.
Choosing where to start when reading a post is nice, too.
But...
The number one feature of the premium app is just supporting XDA, which has provided this great environment for us.
I got it just to support xda. Differences are minor but nice.

I just purchased the premium app to support xda but aside from the theme its no different than free version. I don't see any ads in the free xda app, do you guys?
most custom roms have ad blocking built in.
also the xda premium is suposed to allow you to make shortcuts on the desktop but it doesnt work for me.

Don't forget about the shortcut feature. If you long press a forum (as example) it gives you an option to put a shortcut on the desktop.

I too just installed the premium app to support xda, but I like the dark theme in the free version as it will help conserve battery. Is there a way to have the dark theme (black background with white text) on the premium app too?

I literally have no idea what you are asking... Please be specific. What notification?
the ongoing notification that is always in your status bar when the gear is connected
Sent from my SM-N900V using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Usually there are apps or mods that can disable ongoing notifications. however, you sometimes lose reliability in regards to connection

No problems at all.
You can also remove the notification without root access by using "Status" or any other status bar overlay that allows you to edit the notifications.
Once installed remove notifications for Gear Plugin - please note that you still see it in the dropdown, but will not have the constant notification cluttering up your status bar

I haven't noticed any changes. Upgrading didn't involve any drama for the first time though. Also, MarketWatch was added to the "apps" section. Interestingly, MarketWatch is the first app I've seen that doesn't require a companion app on the host device to work.
Looks like they just added a new clock image and finance app

What clock image?
I got MoWeather app in Utilities, Marketwatch in finance. Did you notice they have opened up pretty much all categories in samsung apps, though only a few do have apps now. Keeping my fingers crossed for a BIG update sometime soon with all the promised apps
I dont see any added clock image. Its still the same as the first gear manager release.

I hit restore and I didnt lose any apps.
This update still didn't fix the Feedly removal .
I lost all side loaded apks with the update
It also modified the filesystem, deleted any folders that weren't there to begin with, so any apks that I had on the phone in any additional folders got deleted

You might need to "restart" the phone/gear or both at times after an update.
reboot has the same issue. if does not work connect manually and do restore when prompted

Last update someone said if you're running null ROM to judge do a Nandroid before updating, then restore /data only after the upgrade and it chugs along fine.
I don't really like the standard touchwiz lock screen... It doesn't let you move right into the apps and I feel like it doesn't provide enough information.
I like the smart lock screens, but have been having a hell of a time choosing one. I like the idea of having my next appointments show on my luck screen along with the normal notifications and maybe the weather... Do you guys have a recommendation? If so, which and why?
