If using 4.2.2, you'll need to use gearmanager 1.2

Thank you Thank you

When I tapped the charger NFC to my I9505G (Google Edition S4) it downloaded the Gear Manager Stub and setup the device without issue.
The problem I'm having is when my Gear is connected it seems to screw up the Physical Keyboard. I lose access to the keyboard in all my other apps. In Language & Input my Physical Keyboard is listed as SA_MUSIC_REMOTE_CONTROL
((UPDATE))
Easy Fix - Just Turned Off Physical Keyboard , appears it was trying to use the GG as a keyboard via Bluetooth. All is well. Working with very little pain on the Google Edition S4.
Now I just need to see if I can find the Weather Widget and Pedometer

Follow up to I9505G + GS4 GPe
Hi ksujace,
I'm in a similar boat as you in that I have the same devices. Thanks for the tip on turning off the physical keyboard, that is a huge help. I'd love any ideas you have about improving the rest of the outstanding issues (pedometer, weather, etc). If you've learned anything new, would greatly appreciate your insight.
Thanks

You need tablet talk to reply to messages via keyboard. You can sideload any keyboard or install via aroma when installing null_

[GUIDE] Using Samsung Gear Fit with Nexus 5

i made a video explaining how to use the Fit on the Nexus 5. this also may work with other phones im unsure.
mediafire.com/folder/05n572epblf4v/Gear_Fit_Nexus
youtu.be/Sk0vsx6k-cU
download those files
install GR.gearmanagerstub.apk
then install gear fit update 1.25.apk
open the app and pair the fit. it should connect. you can use it like this but the update ads a few features like screen rotation.
now you need to get a samsung phone that is compatible and update the fit to 1.49
now you uninstall GR.gearmanagerstub.apk and gear fit update 1.25.apk
now install gearfitmanager1.49update.apk and gearfitinstaller.apk and pair your device. everything should be working perfectly.
i am also claiming the first nexus 5 working with the gear fit
Edit: I just found a "lite" version of s-health that DOES work. Here's the link

I haven't figured out how it get that working yet. It force closes right away. Nor have I figured out weather. But if you have a problem with notifications just go to settings > security > notification settings and enable it for the gear fit manager. Also still can't figure out how to change the time to 12h instead of 24h.

Scratch that last part. I figured it out right after I posted that. All I did was go to the clock settings on my phone and toggled 24h mode on and off.
Edit: I updated the OP with how to use an "lite" version of shealth.

That's awesome man. Crazy world, I discovered a very similar process with my HTC One M8 and M7. I just sideloaded the apps downloaded from Samsung's App Store onto the M8 and M7. Connected the Gear Fit and it worked. Only thing I couldn't get working was quick reply and alarm notifications. Just goes to show that it's totally possible though. Great work! I hope Samsung decides to open this up to other devices officially.

Yep quick reply and alarm don't work for me either. But I'm thinking we need the Samsung clock and SMS app and then it should work.

Hey dude! First thread I've found that got things working more or less! Good job and congrats on your mad ninja hacker skilz!
Question 1: Where's the video link? I'd love to see it.
Next... I just went through loading 1.25 and pairing as you described. Amazing! It worked! WooHoo!! Thanks!
During the loading process my Gear Fit decided it wanted to update it's firmware over Bluetooth.
After the update, the Gear Fit says "Software Version R350XXU0ANCF" .
Question 2: Do I still need to track down a Samsung phone and do more upgrading for the Fit's firmware or do you think it's already updated it's self as much as it needs and I can install 1.49 now?
I did try to install the 1.49 apk but at that point things fell apart and no more pairing. I went back to 1.25 and all was well. I hear 1.29 also works.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sk0vsx6k-cU&feature=youtu.be thats the video its in the OP.
my fit firmware is R350XXU0BND8 which i am pretty sure is a newer version because my fit works with the app version 1.49. if there is no option to rotate the screen in the settings on the fit then you are not on the newest version.
also im pretty sure you heard that 1.29 works from me in another post. that was a typo, as far as i know there is no 1.29.
Thank you very much. I tried it out and it works!
I can also install and open the lite version of S Health. But how can i sync it now? I can't login with a Samsung account. Wh i click on the login button, nothing happens....
Thanks again.
Wohooo, you are great. I could follow your steps.
I have only 2 problems:
a) I have no supported device to upgrade the Fit to 1.49 - will have to ask around in office if somebody has a supported Galaxy. Anyway, it would be great if we could manage to get the upgrading function working so we are independent of any special device requirements... not sure, what's missing here, because as somebody earlier mentioned: when pairing it with 1.25 the first time, it downloads a huge firmware update and pushes it to the Fit who afterwards reboots... but either it didn't work or it is not 1.49
b) Have the same problem with the S-Health lite - it can be started, but it is not able to logon to a Samsung account or sync with the Fit
Anyway, this is a huge progress so far. I bought my Fit today. It was released yesterday and only one single store had it on stock - when I found your thread, I immediately rushed to the store
Thank you so much for all the details you figured out so far.

a) try going to bestbuy or another store that has them on display. They won't bother you about it. The guys at my store were trying to help! And the firmware update to 1.25 isn't an update. Its part of the fitmanager apk. There's also a firmware update in the 1.49 apk that is different. Originally I was trying to move the firmware from the new one to the old one but it wasn't working so I decided to just go to bestbuy and do it with their phones.
b) it doesn't work for me either. Neither does weather. But I'm still working on it.
And I bought my fit when it came out. I got it at the att store. At that point I didn't even know of it would work with the nexus but I decided it would be worth a shot and if I couldn't do it or someone else couldn't either then I'd just return it.
Also to the other question about notifications. Did you try to enable notification sharing in settings?
Hehe, I am really thankful that you tried and posted. You were the reason I dared to buy it. I'm from Germany, so no Best Buy. But not a problem, I work in a huge software company and there are several of these devices for internal tests available, so I may get a grip on one of them tomorrow to do the update. I am so interested to check the sleep tracker.
Notifications works for me like charm. Caller notification worked immediately, for the rest you can enable the general notifications and choose all applications you'd like to receive notifications from. I tried it with WhatsApp, it worked immediately, even showing the text including Chinese characters which are tricky. I am really happy.
As I can workaround the FW upgrade issue myself, my biggest dream would be to get the S-Health app working as this is the way to check your data and statistics. I am happy that the big display also lets you read most of this data, so it is not a total show stopper for now. We must keep in mind that it might happen that we never get the Samsung tools working. They are using TouchWiz stuff and Samsung accounts. So Samsung also would possibly not being happy that people not using their devices (that might also cross-finance the cloud servers) could use their infrastructure and trying to hinder this.

Samsung should be happy we're buying their smartwatches. i dont know if theres a way to get touchwiz on the nexus, but if you could it would probably be possible to get everything working.
is anyones working with alarms set on your phone? i cant get that to work either.
At least I can confirm: having connected it with a Samsung Galaxy S3 and Gear Fit Manager 1.49, it immediately downloaded a new FW for the Fit and now GFM 1.49 can connect to the Gear Fit and sleep tracking is also available now. Great!
would you guys say this is usable enough to buy?
Depends. For me it is. If you are not interested in alarms to wake you up and can help yourself by borrowing a compatible Samsung phone to make the firmware update and receive new functionality like sleep tracking, then you only will face one important issue:
you cannot sync the measured data to your phone, as this is done by S-Health which currently does not work. The Fit with its big display can still show you all relevant data and also historical data, so that is not a 100% no-go. But for the people who like to browse through fitness stats of past months on an app or in a browser, this is still a show stopper.

Cannot pair Gear 2 neo with my phone
Hi, I just JB my gear 2 neo. The jailbreak went out OK, the problem is that when I try to pair it with the phone, cause it wont pair, my gear 2 neo is just stuck in the "Selct device on gear manager" window and my phone is stuck at the "connecting to gear" window. Now, this phone is a chinese one running kit kat 4.4.2 and it's temporary (I'm getting an LG G3 soon). I was wondering if that issue is caused by my phone model (solone SL-SA5) or if I did something wrong.

Thank you for replying. Well, actually, it's ticked. Turns out it is paired with my phone but can't get synchronized with the gear manager. Let me explain myself: My gear shows as linked in my bluetooth seetings on my phone. The audio thingy is ticked, but when I start the gear manager and I try to synchronize it, my phone supposedly starts syncing but the gear beeps twice and it won't sync, it wouldn't do anything. Anyway, I'm buying an LG G3 soon and I'm giving away this one to my father, but still I'd like to be able to synch it with that phone in case I decide to give my dad my gear 2 in the future.

I installed the latest gear manager available in this forum, but I can't seem to find the multimedia control. IDK if it has to do with my phone model (LG G3) Or just the gear manager version I installed. Does anyone have info bout this issue?
Having exactly the same issue.
Did you ever manage to get Gear Manager to connect?

I still don't fully understand how to install apps on my Gear 2 Neo. I got the new ROM installed but how do I install the modded apps on the device now thanks

Modded apps. Are installed via your phone. And pushed through gear manager as an apk
Has there been any discussion on doing a cosmetic overhaul in the rom, such as replacing the icons for pedometer, messages, etc? The basic icons on the fit look okay, but for something larger as this watch, it would be nice to see something colorful and more stylish. Especially if people are using the watch styler app to try and get a premium feeling look watch face. Thanks for everything you have done!
Gear 2 Neo with LG G2
Hi, I got my new Gear 2 Neo over the black friday weekend ... I'm using it with my LG G2 and it works good for the most part.. I'm using the Gear Manager APK version 2.1.14062401
installed on my phone.
Following works fine:
All notifications (Email, SMS, Whatsapp, GMAIL etc)
All the stock apps like pedometer, exercise, sleep, heart rate etc..
Dialer (dialing out and answering calls)
Clock
what doesn't work:
Alarm
Weather updates
Answering to texts (I understand this wouldn't work anyway)
Sync with S-health (or any health app)
My question is 1) Does upgrading to Tizen 3.0 mod fix any of the issues that isn't working on my phone ?
2) I don't care about alarm or weather updates, but the Gear 2 Neo doesn't provide too much info on steps/exercise or Sleep.. Does the tizen mod address this issue? Can we sync with S-health or any other health app from non-samsung phones..??
I'm asking this purely because if the new mod doesnt address my issues, I wouldn't bother upgrading it (as I'm worried I might brick it)... Please advise.. Thanks

This thread is for the Gear 2 Neo, which does not have a camera. I believe the dev has another thread for the Gear 2 with the camera. You should probably use/install that one and hopefully it fixes your problem.

Samsung backup issue?

Just wondering has anyone had any issue with the default Samsung auto backup. I just find it weird that for no reason it just failed? I'm pretty sure it was working perfectly fine last week. Any work around or tips to fix this?

I have called Samsung support...seem like it has been submitted to them like a bug report. They recommend me to use the smart switch app instead and backup to the pc. You can download them from Samsung site...make sure it is the pc version not the app u download from galaxy apps.

BUMP? was curious.... i have the same thoughts
I had similar experience on my Tab S4. My impression is that Google has blocked AA from working on tablets.

You can spoof some other device name (need to be rooted)... my tab2 (p5100) is working as a phone (i think there is also an app to to the same).. use build.prop editor and than reboot... simple :laugh:
Good luck.

Could you, please, dm me with what exactly should I change in build.prop file?
Bumping this rather than starting a new thread...
I side-loaded Android Auto onto My Samsung Tab S7, but it will not run. I'd like to use the tablet rather than my small phone as my AA display in the car. I've tried a couple of the other Auto-focused launchers, but prefer AA. Anyone doing this, is there a simple fix/work around?
The earlier posts suggest it is possible, I guess I'm looking for a bit of hand-holding on what I have to do to get it to work.
Thanks in advance.
