Anyone else install SlingPlayer out of curiosity? It installs and works well w/ BT tethering. The one thing I cannot seem to change is the app auto-rotates the image 90 degrees, so you have to take the watch off to watch it. Is there an Xposed mod or another way of rotating the image back?

You can set orientation with app settings (xposed module).
Would have never guessed this works well? Which slingbox do you have? I'm very doubtful that the stream would be good enough via BT tethering?
I am also running slingbox..... It will take a minute to adjust to the speed but after that it works great! Only negative is battery..... but really That's a given!

Worked great. Thanks! And thanks for the great ROM also!
This surprisingly works really well. Is anybody else unable to change the channel using the keybpard though? The right column is practically gone, you can't use the "3, 8, and enter."
Is anyone able to post a picture of sling player running in their gear? I don't doubt that it works just want to see the scale of it. I think it is pretty freaking awesome to have TV on your watch.

Not a very clear picture, but this was one of the playoff games from this weekend.
Awesome! Thanks for taking the time to post that. Looks like I sold my gear a bit too soon. Probably would have kept it if I had come across this sooner. Oh well!

IP Camera Viewer
Since it's a similar idea, I figure I would just add this to the Slingbox post. I also set up IP Camera Viewer with success on the Gear. Now I can view my home cams from my watch as well.

I used it while at work to watch a playoff game! I was able to keep on working because my hands were free..... I would listen to the game and glance over at it when I heard the crowd or announcers speak up, Of course this is not practical for every job type!

You can root and install Bluetooth File Transfer and send to other bluetooth devices, install Evernote, send it that way, or sync the pic with your phone and share from your phone.
No rooting necessary. Side load Tablet Talk with wondershare and you can share straight from the watch to anyone...just make sure you know the number. It doesn't sync contacts.

I am newbie, don't even know what side-load means. I tried Bluetooth Transfer, but I am not rooted, whatever that is.. So, it doesn't work..
I am going to keep reading and most likely I will find out how to side load.. The Samsung rep loaded a couple pics off my Note 3 to the Gear, but he didn't know how he did it...
It seems the mini-gallery is working. I loaded a lot of my pics and vids on my Note 3. I have a 64gb sd card, so I was real liberal with the amount of pictures. Today, I hit the mini-gallery app on my GG and sure enough, I could browse all my pics..haven't tried the vids..

Well mine is working like a charm. Not rooted. App is "mini gallery"... I have it on the face of my GG. I tap it, it shows me the pics on the camera, and what I have stored on the Note 3.. Shows them all.
It works for me now, i just uninstalled the 1.5 tablet in gear and installed 1.7 and with that version the share worked
Still cant find the .apk file in my note3 for my tablet talk i bought would be great to use that instead in my gear.

I noticed this app in the Samsung store under entertainment, it works brilliant to control your TV from your gear. Your phone needs to be near by of course. Just thought I would share.

Good good. Don't use IR remotes anymore. But this is definitely a brilliant way to use the Gear (or any smartwatch).
My hope is that Logitech will do something similar for their harmony app for the harmony smart or harmony ultimate. (or published a sdk for it). A big big advantage of the Logitech solution is that the remote app communicates via Wifi with a wifi hub which in turn translates the commands in IR code. Especially for a Smartwatch setup this works great. You don't need to point the phone because everything is send via Wifi instead of Infrared.

WatchOn need IR.
It never connects for me. I am running Null 11 though so I wonder if that has something to do with it??
Sent from my SPH-L720 using Tapatalk
Its working for me, but it always acts like a DVR and I can't get it to show me channel change, just volume and dvr controls. My cable box is also a dvr.
So, I have my Gear unlocked and all with Null_ (and have had for some time) but now that the coolness factor has worn off a little, I'm kind of wondering what exactly to do with it. I am on US AT&T so I don't have bluetooth tethering (and I'm not sure my plan would support it anyway) so I'm wondering what apps others have put on their Gear that do not require internet, are not games and are worth having?
I've got a disc golf scoring app and a few live backgrounds. Really the scoring app makes it all worth it, but what else is there? Thanks for the suggestions!

Either way, phone or antenna. I just want a watch that will run Endo and use GPS. It seems the Gear just might do that. Seeing as how I have a Note 2, I will have to give the Gear a serious look.

I've lost my bt gps antenna somewhere in my house. If i will find it I could try it for you.
Some would say "why???"
I say "because it can be done"
I mean it's absolutely rediculous... Why would you want to watch it on your watch???
But it does run extremely smooth. No hiccups or stutters. I watched a 22min show just to test it out. Picture looks surprisingly good too.
I don't think id watch another show on it... It's more for bragging rights lol
