Database Develop

Cloud SMS app available in Google Play now. Best tablet SMS IMO.

Let's support our XDA devs folks! I normally don't create threads for apps but this app is worth endorsing IMO. You can leave your phone at home, be at work and you'll still be able to send and receive text messages. It doesn't rely on blue tooth which I find useless because you have to have your phone near you to receive and send texts. Kind of defeats the purpose IMO. Its a quick download on both devices so if your not impressed (there's no reason you won't be impressed) you can get a refund after testing.
BTW. I don't know this guy and have never even spoken to him so this isn't me doing a favor for a friend. I'm just sharing a text messaging app that I find amazing. He's still working some bugs out, for instance you can't see texts you sent from your phone on your tablet (one of the first things he's gonna fix). I own a business and rely on my texts and this app is yet to let me down.
Give it a try folks!

How did you do the update? Mine says its up to date but I don't see where the option is to customize your own watch.

With great respect only you can answer that. The online operating manual is now available for the Sony site. I would suggest you go read it and see if it will perform what you expect of a smart watch or not. Ones mans trash is another mans gold etc..........
Regards.

Thanks...you are correct about what "I" expect from the device. As long as it sends all my texts and emails I'll be good. I work in a dirty factory and hate pulling out my phone

I have it and its ok you can see the text but you cant answer text and you cant respond to text like other smart watches i might return it after a week, theres not many apps either im kinda disappointed

You can reply to anything using s-voice no on-board keyboard. Loving this thing so far and the phone is a big improvement over the note2 (and I loved that phone too).
Absolutely room for improvement and not many apps.. yet. Patience people.

Still waiting 4 stocks here in saudi would like to see demo units

The SMS and Email notifications work great on Gear.
Gmail and Facebook notifications need to work like the above two to be useful and they aren't yet.
Gear seriously needs a calculator app, including a tip calculation function. It's mind boggling that they didn't include one already.
It would also be nice to have a compass function but not sure whether it can support that or not.

can you share a picture taken from great and upload straight to Facebook

Not from the Gear directly, but you can quite easily transfer to the smartphone and then, share from the phone.

its growing on me but it needs playstore access its so good but its bad. the speaker phone is unbelievable the viewing of text is great and this is the best s voice i ever used and i hate s voice, but the bad is the apps the apps is horrible. it needs three things 1. the ability to answer a text with a built in keyboard. 2. Play store access. 3. micro sd slot. If I could get 1 and 2 Ill be happy other than that Im probably going to return it based on google announcement on oct 31

Any one else notice a pattern for all the reviews for this app.
"Thank you so much BlackBerry team. I was waiting this app. Its really great user friendly and smooth."

They are working with Google to remove these fake reviews

Oddly enough, I was able to sign up without getting the email by just putting my email into the app for a second time.

Bypass email or queue wait for BBM activation
Do not wait for Email confirmation/ or do not wait for blackberryto put you on the top of the queue. Simply use your friend's email address who has activated BBM. Then on screen 2 use your own email id to create new BB ID.

Got in today; the turnaround seems to only be a day or so. Now, to find others who are already here.......
Was trying to get my wife on this app; she has always said the one thing BB did right was the messaging app. Meanwhile, I did a fresh ROM install and now the app won't get past setup. Uninstalled....

Why does everyone want BBM what is the benefit of it over other means on android?

Dunno, none of my friends are on it so I already uninstalled

Gear showing Picture ID on phnoe call

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.

Not that I know of. When I set my watch up the first phone call I got had a picture of the person calling. Do any of the pictures you have set up already show up on your phone screen when the person calls?

Ah man another thing doesn't work for me. Guess it's because I am using my gear with a nexus 5. Mine doesn't even show the persons name. Just the number.

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.
