You need to be using null_ as it has files required to get it to work

I haven't read the linked articles, but I've been playing in this space the last few days as well. I could go into a long explanation here, but essentially I love the Gear hardware, but the flexibility of the Pebble software. If the two worlds merge, I'll be very happy.
So far in my limited testing, I have Tasker on the phone sending messages over bluetooth via AutoRemote. On the gear there is a Tasker profile for a AutoRemote message that displays it and vibrates. I have places I would like this to go with something almost a message protocol.
I'll be following this closely and will happily contribute anything back that I come up with.

I got a game that there is not a single clone of it on the market.
Quoridor but with online play like words with friends or wordfeud, where opponents have unlimited time to play a move or a certain daily limit. Also would have chat and multiple games at one at least 2 players but 4 players would be awesome.
Let me know if your interested.
Thanks

SlingPlayer

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!

Looking for this watchface on Android

Hi
I've had my pebble smartwatch for a at least 4 months now and I like it. I recently updated to V2.0 and everything looked good. My only gripe was that there was no way to display the watch battery status until now. I was today browsing for some new watchfaces and I came across this:
http://www.mypebblefaces.com/apps/852/7111/
I know it works only with iOS devices. I have the "Glance" app on my android phone and like it, but I would appreciate if someone knows of a way to get this particular watchface using "Glance" (or any other method).
I'm also open to other similar watchfaces that display both the pebble battery status and my phone battery status.
Help appreciated.. Thanks

You can try creating your own Glance customization. You need to pay for that (premium) but you could end with something similar to that. I don't see why you need to know the battery at all times, just press the mid button on Glance and you'll have the battery on the top-right corner...
That is easily made using canvas, most likely somebody has made one you modify to suit your needs

Glance question

Is there anyway to adjust the app and create a toggle on and off for hourly vibrations within the app? This app has everything id ever want except that.
Thanks in advance.
Sent from my SCH-I545 using xda app-developers app
You could do this by sending an hourly notification via Tasker, and an app like Pebble Notifier or YaNC, that accepts tasker intents for custom notification. Then to toggle it, you could trigger the tasker profile for it using the tasker integration with Glance.

Also on Glance - my weather on the face isn't right but it is in the Weather folder. I'm using a Galaxy S5. If its right in the folder but not on the face I'm lost. Location is obviously right. Wadda ya think?
I have gotten rid of Glance as being too hard to manage. I now have a face I designed on Canvas that works with alot less maintenance than I found necessary with Glance.

[Q] Tasker with Nexus 6

Wondered if anyone else has problems getting some of the tasked stuff to work with lolipop. I personally can't get secure settings plugin to work now with the pattern lock disable and re enable. any ideas?
Same issue. It'll "fix" itself to the correct seeing after a reboot. Haven't worked on it to figure out why though.

I appreciate it but I think I will wait on a legit fix from the devs. I guess that's the price you pay when you have the newest of the new.
Sent from my Nexus 6 using Tapatalk
No worries. It seems like the device admin isn't sticking (as mentioned in one of the links) When I toggle it then it toggles the pin. Until it's officially fixed I've resorted to using location trusted places (hope they do a Wi-Fi trusted location soon).
Sent from my Nexus 6 using XDA Free mobile app
I actually removed some of the deeper system level tasks I've been using with securesettings in the past on my N6. I assumed many of them wouldn't work with the new OS and didn't feel like mucking around with them. If possible, the devs will figure it out eventually.
Thread revival!
Hey guys, I'm looking into buying a Nexus 6 and I was wondering if all of the tasker problems have been resolved by now?

Awesome. Thanks for the quick reply!
Anybody know why Tasker can't turn on WIFI tether through either the system or secure settings? I've tried this now on three different ROMs.
So I found a workaround---- visit the Tasker Groups at this post here.
