No weather info - Samsung Galaxy Gear

Hey guys. My apologies if this has been asked before, but my watch is completely new to me! No idea what I'm doing lol.
That said, I'm running a custom rom on my note3 and noticed that the watch won't display any weather. I know my rom stripped a lot of the Samsung apps out and I had to out those back on for the watch to work.
Seems to work for the most part except no weather. Do I need to install something?

Youtube updated

I was looking for something in the app market and happened to run across this. Looks like a new update for Youtube. Seems like a little smoother interface and bit more finger friendly. Just figured I'd share!
The native YouTube app? Or are you talking about a 3rd party one?
I ask because I'm not getting an update notification. Since its one of my most used apps I'm definitely interested in any new improvements
The native app. I didnt get a notification for it either but it's def a different verision then what I had before. Try searching for it in the market.
I think it may be for 2.2 only.

I'm running Cog Beta 5.5. Which is 2.2.
But, it looks like it is completely separate than the YouTube app which comes pre installed on the captivate. Just downloaded, and so far I like it.
Here's the Appbrain
EDIT: It also allows you to edit the SafeSearch controls. Which I had heard previously Samsung (or ATT) disabled.

Can anyone else confirm this? I never got a backup so I don't want to upgrade unless this is true.

It definitely does let you edit the safe-search controls. First thing I did was turn them off
still cant watch a lot of music videos (thanks to VEVO) and a bunch of popular videos (worst dj ever) are still not viewable or searchable.
Have to use the regular Youtube site and use flash for those videos.
It clearly states on the AppBrain page that it is for 2.2 and up, so no dice for us Eclair users.

new and improved....
yeah,i downloaded this yesterday and i really like this version- the interface looks much better dark and i like that i have access to my channel when away from my computer...found out about the new youtube app through android central-no notification was sent to me since the captivate doesn't officially have 2.2?(i have the leaked 2.2 )
thanks for the headsup!!
New app looks awesome Thanks for the find.
Can someone please go to the new YouTube app (if you have it) go to settings and see what the application version is, please?
2.0.26

Really liking the new update. Again this is for 2.2 only, it didn't show up as an update to my current youtube app, but it did replace it once I downloaded and installed it.
Hopefully Google continues to add more and more of the stock apps to the market... one way to combat the horrors of Sense, TouchWiz, etc.

Confirmed working on my end.
Definitely an improvement but still can't comment from within the app which I hope they implement

Urgent !!!! Urgent !!! Urgent !!!!!!!!!!!!! Read this please !!!!

EDIT: OK Sorry for the insane title, i started this thread a long time ago and there has been no help. There has got to be another CM7 / MIUI user out there with a similar problem.
I have searched for a solution, but i didnt find one. Some one please shed some light on this. We gotta help one another.
Hey i need some help here folks, i have searched and searched for an app similar to "Samsung allshare " but i have had no luck.
The apps i have found are too confusing or just dont work.
Is there anyway someone can make the "allshare " app work on a non samsung rom??? Or even so is there an app (free) that can do the same without blowing my brain to smitherines??
Please help. What apps do you folks use??

so happy of this outcome lol, couldnt believe it was so difficult. Now i just need to find a way of storing to the cloud, to watch anywhere in the world
Thanks man !!
and hey i have a doubt.. i am on simply honey 3.6.1.. i want to go to cm7.. but i'm also impressed by miui , can u suggest me which i should use ?? and also can u suggest anyothers tweaks i should perform to make the fone fast?( i know i cant use normal kernels like damian).. if possible list out the tweaks done in your fone after installing miui..thanks!!
MIUI is pre loaded with tweaks. the rom is blazing fast.
there is nothing you need to do with the rom, the latest release comes with tk glitch kernel which is incredible . also allows over clocking to 1.6 ghz, but this is so un necessary.
battery life has also increased in this newest release, and new updates coming a few times a week.
i cant recommend MIUI enough..... its the future of SGS ... the future of Android
thanx buddy...
If you do go over to miui you can add in the touchwiz framework and see if allshare works with that.
I haven't tested it, so I honestly can't guarantee it will work.

FIXED!! Anyone flash note 3 features zip on note 2 and broke Gear weather sync?

Just like the title says. I have a Sprint note 2 on synergized 4.3 and flashed the note 3 features zip and can no longer receive weather updates on my Null_14 powered gear. If I don't flash the note 3 features it works fine. When I click the auto update weather in gear manager settings I get "WeatherDaemon(eur) has stopped" I guess the note 3 features zip is breaking the accuweather sync even though I get Weather just fine on the home screen widget of my phone. Just not syncing to my gear. Thought I would ask here since I don't know how many gear users are in the synergized thread. Thanks

Thanks for responding. Now I can stop going crazy repeating all these rom flashes. Thought it might have been just my setup. I've tried clearing cache and data of the weather daemon in system/apps. I tried copying in a whole other weather daemon.apk but nothing works. I guess it's either note 3 apps, or weather on the gear. Take your pick...lol

LOL! I know exactly what you're talking about. I flashed re-flashed updated downgraded restored cussed and then finally gave up and just accepted the fact that it's not gonna work.
The fix is to not flash something for a device it wasnt intended for?

Google just released information on the new 5.0 update!
This includes support for their new watch API, recovering swiped away cards and more!
http://googleblog.blogspot.nl/2014/12/android-dress-code-wear-what-you-want.html
Our watches will update within the coming weeks, I, myself, am really looking forward to it!
How about you guys?

Lucky you. I tried to force update, even installed the Android Wear 1.0.5 app by hand, but still no update for the watch itself :/
Guys, if you get it, try to pull the update URL via adb. You know...for the horde and all that.
Ugh, I cant wait anymore D:

Haha... Did the same plus rebooted a couple of times, plus reset the device.
Just got the 5 update half an hour ago Liking the nice new features like watch battery and storage details from the wear app and the new watch faces
I'm pulling the the signed update zip right now for those that want to flash it using the stock recovery I think it would work, can't guarantee if it will work with TWRP. It is substantial in size.
Actually here is the URL. http://android.clients.google.com/p....signed-lenok-LWX48P-from-KNX01R.149e0c34.zip
^^ has anyone tried this update zip ?
Nothing here yet
Hi guys i just got the 5.01 update last night and noticed something AMAZING!!! there are 2 new watchfaces called Ocean and Classic.
The thing with these 2 faces is they are 3D!!!! omg :victory: the light seems to rotate on movement and the dails are also moving and visible from the side!!!
i hope you guys can enjoy this asap!

for those who got the 5.0 update using a stock lollipop rom on their phones: are you able to answer an incoming call direct from the watch, as i used to do with my LG G Watch before Lollipop came out?

Just received the update now, did a manual update and it downloaded, took a while, I'm in the UK, purchased the watch from Amazon France. Now it shows software v5.0.1 after the update.
The new classic and ocean faces are nice, the background shimmers when the watch is tilted, flicking through the faces feels smoother.

Car mode

Does anyone have car mode on their note?
I cant find it on mine. Checked in the status bar options and also all through the settings with no luck.
I heard that aome carrier versions do not have it. Im wondering if im in that boat (i purchased mine on a plan through Telstra). Mine seems to be a standard version though as there is no physical carrier branding on the phone, only incthe software when it boots up.
Im really surprised and disappointed that with todays techniology, i have a phone that cant assist me with the likes of reading back emails, sms, etc and all thst handsfree stuff while driving.
Please tell me theres a way i can add this function. If need bw im happy to install a different firmware that had this included.

I think it is a carrier thing, not sure though. You can Google Samsung Car Mode and there is an XDA member who uploaded one that works on the SM-N920I version.
Legendary! Found, installed, abd now one safe happy driver. Thank you!
Im going to have a look and see if i can install the stock standard OS without the carrier restrictions and apps. Seems silly to remove such a useful tool. Hate to know what else im missing

You can get it from galaxy apps.

i have it, experiencing a lot if little issues, also needs to be more customizable....
Originally it wouldn't show up in the galaxy app store. A week ago it did. Downloaded it and have some issues with it so I have removed it for now. After using it Google voice won't hear me and also have issues with using a Bluetooth headset with it.
