I can't get the new theme to appear on my Gear. I get a small "theme applied" popup message on my Gear, but then all I get is a "spinner" at the clock face (that never goes away).
I've tried the uninstall/reinstall trick (several times actually)... but nothing seems to work.
I presume it's because my Galaxy S4 is the Google Play Edition and that something is requiring TouchWiz?
Has anybody else got WatchStyler working on an S4 GPE?
Works fine on my gpe.

So what files actually get copied from the phone to the gear?
I've poked around my gear with ES file explorer, and I don't see any hint of my theme that I created (and supposedly transferred)
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

Yes, gear manager will work on any phone, it just won't work as a middle man if not a touchwiz rom
It's working fine for calls contacts and logs, using ATNotifications for everything else!

Yeah, but they are just standard Bluetooth functions that don't require any 3rd party stuff
This is the issue we've always had since the start

You need to install watch styler on phone version 1.0.9 during installation keep paired the phone and gear manager status connected... After that you can change style clock, after installing it. Close all. Close hear manager and open again and going to the application menu and go back. Open clock and appear watch styler clock.

Ok, So I have have a Galaxy Gear and Nexus 5, I can answer phone calls, change my clock, etc. I have enabled Gmail, Facebook notifications on in both ATN Notifications and Gear Manager 1.6.132701 but nothing is coming through. Any suggestions.
Thanks

Those are the exact steps I did but I still can't get notifications to work.
I'm in the same boat. Followed the directions 100% and all I can do is call.

Could be that Samsung patched the vulnerability

I've spent hours and hours trying to get things right on the n5 and gear. No such luck. Was able to connect and receive calls and transfer images sometimes. Notifications never worked unless using a third party app like tablet notifier. With tablet notifier using null ROM, I didn't need to use any gear manager to get that to work. The answering calls and transferring photos won't work. Just notifications do.

My gear works perfectly with Nexus 5. I followed the instructions here (http://pocketnow.com/2014/02/07/galaxy-gear-with-the-nexus-5) and it works. make sure you dont miss step 12 (and follow all steps in order). also use the ATN Manager from post #13 from this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2596455&page=2
Have you set the security setting allowing ATN manager to receive notifications?
I had to use the .111801 version to get calling, contacts and photo transfer to work. Also i got Atn manager 1.2.2 to work, not 1.2.3

WORKING!
For those that are using other device and not Samsung Devices....
OK I was able to get this working and I will try my best to explain it for everyone so you can understand:
Uninstall any versions of ATNManger you already have installed
Install ATN Manager 1.2.2 on your "Phone" (In my case, Nexus 5), apk HERE
Install the "Watch.apk" inside ATN Manager 1.2.3.1_pre.apk on your "Galaxy Gear", apk HERE
Go to settings on your "Phone" and find security, inside there find "Notification Access" make sure ATN Manager is checked
Open ATN Manager on you "Phone" and check all apps that you want to get notifications from (example: Gmail, Hangouts, Google+, Facebook)
You should now get notifications on all of your apps that you checked, my wife even gets them for all her games.
Too bad it only lets you know you got a message and then you have to go to phone to see it, but you still get the notification if say your phone is on silent. Would be great if we could make this work from Nexus 5 through GearManager as it is better but no luck there for me.
Also while I am at it, here is how to get the WatchStyler app working so you can change your watch faces:
Open GearManager on your "Phone"
Connect to your Galaxy Gear
Click on Clocks to see the list of clocks
With Clocks open hit your home button to minimize Gear Manager
Install latest WatchStyler app (1.1.00) from HERE
Open WatchStyler app
Now open GearManager (that is still running) and you will then see the WatchStyler option, choose it
Make a new watch face in WatchStyler and then open GearManager
Choose the Gear next to WatchStyler and choose the watch face you just made and choose apply
You should now see your new watch face on your Galaxy Gear
Hope this helps everyone.
I am having trouble with Watch Styler. It forces closed when I try to load a face from Gear Faces. I have restarted my phone and reloaded the app but it still does it. Has anyone else had this trouble?

I can't believe that no one has any ideas for me on this.
Delete the watchface from where you have it on your phone from watch face.com. Then try opening up the app again. If it doesn't force close then, next load one theme at a time and see which one is causing the issue. I have had the same issue and this fixed it.

So you are saying I should delete all of the faces I have downloaded and delete Watch Styler. Then reload WS and faces one at a time?
Watchstyler force closes
I can't even get to the point where I can see my downloaded faces. As soon as I click the Load Theme button the app force closes...

How did you get watch styler to work after the upgrade? I also confronted Samsung about the lack of apps for Gear 1 owners now running Tizen (14 available for me), and they said that unfortunately only a few Gear 2 apps are currently compatible for Gear 1 owners- even though internal specs of the 2 watches are nearly identical (not to mention OS is the same).

first time I installed tizen,it asked me to restore, I restored and everything worked good, ,just no apps in Samsung app store
watch styler worked and it was the last opion in clocks
it worked with all my rolex watches, analogs, I never tried digital ones before
then I found someone else had the no apps problem, I uninstalled gear manager, then installed the new version....then it told me it will restore my watch to factory settings, it did it,and then I lost everything
watchstyler everything
but now im thinking in the next few weeks there will be a watchstyler for tizen

That makes sense since I was in the process of installing a fresh ROM on my S4 at the time also and started out completely new with BT pairing to the newly flashed Tizen Gear and let it download Gear Manager from there.
Oh well, goodbye Watchstyler for now. :crying:
