How to install Google Play Apps.

1) Download and install on your PC or Mac Wondershare MobileGo (Free Trial) - I cannot post the link - but u can find it on Google
2) Set the Gear to USB Debug and connect it through a USB cable to PC
3) MobileGo will download the drivers then it will recognize the connected device as Samsung SM-V700
4) MobileGo will also install its app on your Gear.
5) Now you can navigate the upper left menu including "Google Play Apps" from which you can install any app to your Gear, just click the app icon and then click on the green install button.You can check the process clicking "Downloads" on bottom left.
6) On the menu in the upper left of MobileGo under the menu "Apps" you will have access to all apps installed on Gear, clicking on this menu you can see all your installed apps and install or uninstall any app on your Galaxy Gear.
See some screenshot of MoblieGo.
I hope I was helpful

Thanks
Going to try it out.

How to install to GEAR? The Play Store cannot see my GEAR listed.
For never install apps, it will download, but for apps I had install at others device, it can't download.
Most cannot install...

Same for me, actually I can't install any app with your method from click on Google Play Apps, he ask me to login with my account and then don't offer to install on the gear
Sometime don't ask to log in and then add to dosnload list but don't want download, get error ;(
Edit : If I install app direct fril the option this work. But was Google Map and no internet on the watch, so was useless

Click install and then cancel and then install again most work after the second attempt

Mine says that my device is sleeping and won't work,what should I do?

Here it's working fine and installing any App from Google Play, as show on the screenshots, I installed Smart Launcher using MobileGo. Of course don't have to sign in on Google Play otherwise the apps will be installed only to the registered devices. Honestly I'm using the MobileGo Pro version which giving many more features to the program and may be this the issue that may not allow to install apps to devices non registered on Google Play like Galaxy Gear.

Working great for me!

Yeah! Without signing in, I can install more apps, but this means I can't get any paid apps that I already buy get install...
At least work for free apps, thanks a lot.

So easy, this is awesome! I finally have the calculator and calendar apps that i needed! Also running Nova launcher!

It's a nice app but too expensive to purchase. It will be useful for the free period of 14 days.
I found installing the apps that I want on my Note 3 and then, pushing the apps via ADB to Gear works just as well at no extra cost.

which is best simple calculator plz
galaxy note 3 now Free

Thanks

Fully charge phone this morning at 7:45am and 5 hours later, I am at 43% battery. Just turned the brightness to 4 and rebooted the gear. I think the MobileMe app which asks for wifi to be connected is draining the battery while trying to search. I have gone and closed all apps running in the background and will monitor for the next hour to see what the % looks like then.
Is there a way to remove the auto installed MobileMe app during this process.
Ian B
Update: An hour later and the battery was already in the 30s%. Ended up resetting the gear, charging for an hour and now, my battery is back to normal. Charged to 84% and an hour later, I am still at 80%. The Mobileme app and calculator app were removed by system when I reset the Gear.
Going after work to exchange this mocha brown color(only one in Austin available) for the Lime Green one at BB.

Can you elaborate on how you push the apps via adb? are you pushing from your phone? or backing up with titanium or something similar?

This works perfect.
Thanks.
I've just play with Fruit Ninja.
ES explorer works well too.

this is what i was waiting for!
can anyone make some more screenshots, or record a video?
can you get some sort of a small-sized phone functionality? i mean, place browser shortcut, install reddit client, use other calculators, show calendar etc?

You need to install ADB on your PC and use it in the command prompt window to install the apps on the gear.
You will need to be familiar with ADB commands like "adb install c:\director\filename" to install the app to the Gear, with the Gear's USB Debug option turned on and connected to your PC via USB cable.

Can you describe this process ?
Youre just pushing Note 3 APKs to the Gear ?
If you have for example Instagram on your phone and Gear...are both of them looking for updates ?

Thanks , working great. I even have a task killer for the hard to shut down apps, like Riptide2. It run great on this Gear.

Easy App Install/Transfer to Gear

I have used DataSync+ application with my phone and Nexus tablet and I found it also works with the Gear. You need to have it installed on the Gear by using the PlayStore on the Gear.
Essentially this app needs to be installed on your phone and gear. It is used to transfer any application (and it's data if you want) that you have installed on your phone, and install/transfer it over to your Gear. I was able to get Tablet Talk that was on my phone and install it over on my gear with no issues at all. It works on any app. I also used it to transfer/install SwiftKey that I use on my phone over to the gear. Now the keyboard is much bigger (almost the whole screen) and easier for quick responses to texts in Tablet Talk.

For those HTC One users, I have almost every thing working on my gear with the only exception being the Notifications and Svoice. But that is solved with Tablet Notifications and Tablet Talk with Swift Keyboard. Everything else works fine, media controller, contacts, dialer, camera, gallery (push photos), find my device, call logs, etc.
I have the HTC One running with the ViperOne 3.1 RC2 | 3.62.401.1 | Android 4.3 Sense 5.5 ROM. & Gear with Null 11.1 Rom

Now this would be great info if you explained to us who are not tech savvy on how to get the AppSync+ application onto the gear. You start off your rcommendation by statin we use the app to transport applications onto our gear, but you never explain how to get the AppSync+ application onto the gear as a start point.
I spent an entire dayt trying different ways to get apps onto my phone by using the ADB method, etc. I did not want to go with the MObileMe method because people said it burns battery. Caught fits. So i would really be grateful if you would take a moment and walk me thru on how to get AppSync+ application on my gear so I can begin to port over apps to the gear---By the way this does not reqiure rooting does it?

You must have not read my second sentence where I mention using the play store from your Gear. Bluetooth tether the Gear to your phone, launch the play store from the gear, search for DataSync+ and download it and install to your Gear.
The APP does not require Root.
I mentioned in my original post the name to be AppSync+, but the name is actually DataSync+. MY APOLOGIES

Thanks for your prompt reply and for your patience.
I am going to spend the day doing this but since i am new to the tech scene I will need a few basic points (I know i am so new at this I really ought not be posting on XDA). From an elementary standpoint, I know my gear does not have the play store on it. When I "tether" the gear to my phone does opening the play store on the PHONE cause the play store to open on the gear and then be downloaded. I simply do not know how the tethering process works to download the play store to my phone.
Please don't give up on me as I really want to do what yoy recommended to me in this thread

SW,
No biigie, we were all beginners at one point. The way I tether is by having the Null 11.1 rom on my Gear. Once that process is complete and during the process of installing the rom you will see an option for gapps. Install it so the playstore app is included. once that is complete and you have paired your phone you then go to the settings app from the rom (blue icon) and click on bluetooth. you will see the phone you have paired to. Scroll to the bottom and click on the tethering option. You then have to enable tethering on your phone also. Once that's done and you are tethered you open up the playstore app on the Gear, enter your gmail account info then you search for Datasync+, then you install it.

To help clarify, does the Phone need to be Rooted? Data sync is saying this is required, once I installed it. Thanks.

Sideload any app/file to Galaxy Gear (no cables, no computer, no ADB, no MobileGo)

This is something that I ran across while reading sometime ago, so I take no credit for it, I just thought I'd pass it along to help others. Basically all you need to do is use a file manager/explorer on your Note 3 (I use "My Files" most of the time) and long press on the file/app that you want to send to your Galaxy Gear and then hit the "share" button at the top of your screen. Then select "Bluetooth", and then choose the Galaxy Gear. After that, just hit "accept" on the Gear and that's it...nothing else is needed. It may take a few minutes just because bluetooth file transferring isn't extremely fast, but it works, and without having to enter commands in terminal/ADB, without any cables, without MobileGo which is a trial version (or cost $40), and you don't even need the Galaxy Gear's cradle (that you probably left at home like I did).
Once the file/app has transferred over, just use a file manager on your gear to maneuver to the "SDcard/Bluetooth" directory where your files will be waiting on the Gear. Then you can simply double click to install them or just move them where ever you want. My Gear already had a file manager on it after I installed the custom rom Null 18. Otherwise, getting that file manager app onto the Gear may be your biggest (also last) challenge as far as sideloading apps goes. I rooted, and then flashed the Null 18 rom first to save time, but now sideloading is a piece of cake.
I also took this method to the next level since I am also rooted as I mentioned. What I mean by that, is with Root Explorer you can navigate to the System/apps directory (which is normally hidden if not rooted and using something like RE to access it). Once there, you'll find that this is the directory where your installed apps are stored. Now you can use the same method mentioned above to pull apps that you may not have had the .apk files for. So in essence you are "ripping" the apps right from your Note 3 straight to your Gear! This gives you the ability to try and install/run ANY Android app (even those that are said NOT to be compatible with the Gear) because a lot of them will still run. Google Search/Google Now/Voice Search is GREAT on the Gear, and so are many others. NOW this device is really kickin! Enjoy.

Sweet...many thanks ..

Very cool, thanks. Simple and effective. I like the part about testing Android apps from your phone / tablet to see how they work on the Gear.

Hmm weird. ..I tried this with two different file mangers and when I scan for nearby devices to share with nothing comes up. Neither my note or gear are rooted so maybe this only works with null?

I'm pretty sure you have to be rooted on the Gear for this. I tried to do that when I went back to stock and was pretty mad that it wouldn't work. One more reason I was Null back.
But my Not3 is not rooted and na3 and na6 will not let me keep any sideloaded apps. So I am not going to get null back until this is fixed. I even went down to the first gear manager and it still doesn't work. Only mk7 with any gear manager allows me to keep my apps/put them on my home screen.

Works for me on a stock Note II!
How could I bluetooth download PdaNet Tablet to the Gear?
I need to get the files for PdaNet Tablet so I can get the BT PAN internet tethering going...

I can confirm that this works on my rooted Note II running stock 4.3

No need for root. Just use My Backup app on your phone. Saved apk is usually in sdcard/rerware
And this won't work for stock gear. But work on null rom. Been doing this for quite a while now.

Gear Manager + Nexus 5

Hey guys,
Just got a Gear and trying to get it working with my Nexus 5.
I have read through the guides and always get stuck with connecting Gear Manager;
Flashes installing 0/2
Connect Manually; if I am already connected via Bluetooth it disconnects and never finds the device
Connects, takes me to a restore option.
Selecting either Restore or Reset will fail and start the process over.
Any ideas?
Thanks.

I had that previously too. Thats because you have previously made a backup using Galaxy Manager.
Delete the backup file on your phone and factory reset your gear, it should work

That did it!
Thanks for your help.

wanted to advise where the backup file is but I couldn't remember so perhaps you can post it here for others to reference

Root of your SDCARD, .bs_backup or something.
Right now trying to get the latest Gear Manager to work so I can use Watch Styler but the phone won't seem to sync.

I don't think any apps work if gear manager doesn't work. And gear manager doesn't work (fully) if not on a touchwiz rom

Gear Manager 1.6.111801 works fine on my Nexus 5 but I can't get Watch Styler to work.

Well, I actually got it updated to the latest Gear Manager release by just updating after the previous version worked.
Reinstalled Watch Styler and Force Stopped Gear Manager but still no luck; I cannot see Watch Styler Clock under Gear Manager > Clocks as an option

Atooma for Gear

Atooma for gear is not showing up in the Samsung App Store in Gear Manager. I installed a downloaded APK to the gear with wondershare. There is no icon on the Gear, but it does show as installed in Wondershare. Atooma on my phone doesn't recognize the atooma on the gear and gives me an error to install the official samsung app.
What gives? Anyone else have this issue?
