Thinking about rooting my samsung galaxy gear, but wanted to know if I plan to root it and flash a custom rom will I still be able to receive notifications? Ive been told if you flash a rom you will not be able to receive notifications because you will no longer be able to add gear manager. Someone please give me your input

not true - got mine rooted and running null - getting notifications - on top of that, if you use atooma you can make your gear smarter. I have it setup so i get notification whenever i get an email, when there is rain forecasted in the weather (i bike to work) and many other things

You need gear manager for phone to communicate fully with watch. Otherwise it's just a fancy Bluetooth headset

Hello I just bought my gear of craigslist. Tried to check if their is any new updates for it (currently on latest ) but wanted to check. Get the message in the picture, why? Does it mean it is rooted or?

You update the watch through gear manager not on the watch itself. The watch gets no data so anything that uses Internet is a no go.

We know this, Look at the screenshot it's in Gear Manager.
I get the same error through the note 3, it would normally say something like all latest updates currently installed, but at the moment the fail error is generated for some reason

Same issue. I'm sure Samsung is aware and sure will worm in next update of gear manager. If not wonder if there was an update for gear, prob wouldn't work

Hi
Could anyone help me receive messages on my gear from my note 3?
I did all settings in gear manager on note 3. I could receive all ( calls, emails etc) but no messages.
Is there any other setting I must do before?
Thx a lot

Sometimes not that easy. I've had messages checked under notifications in settings. And I haven't received 1 SMS notification since day one. I only use stock SMS app.
Kinda. Annoying
And kinda gave up awhile ago. Just like my svoice won't work. Tried everything. Can't find others with issue.

if your screen is on, the sms won't go to the watch. You need to either check if there are wakelocks or install modded message apk (search in this forum) that doesn't turn screen on when you receive a message
As the title states I'm not reciveing sms notifications aswell as some other apps like xda and such. I restarted my gear and phone still nothing tried unchecking it and checking it from the gear manager app and Nada any help will be appreciated gear isn't rooted
Sent from my SM-N900T using xda app-developers app
Not sure why but today I spotted getting text notifications. Previously all was fine so not sure why. Hopefully some clever soul will help us both.

Try getting the latest updates for both the gear and manager (via SamsungApps). Worst case scenario if you already have the latest, is reseting the watch and clearing the application data for Gear manager from Settings/General/Application Manager

gear needs to have lock screen enabled on your phone cant be set to none. At least swipe in order for notifications to be pushed, had the same problem fixed mine
Seems to only work with the stock messaging app too. I was using handcent and was wondering why I couldn't get the notifications well I turned off all the notifications on that app and when my phone was in screen lock then I would get them. Email needs to be set auto get mail what ever interval you want not manually. And again in lock screen seems to work for me anyway.

That doesn't help I wiped the data under app managers, gear manager and reseted my gear from the gear itself then gear manager app still nothing I have swipe enabled no 3rd party messaging apps. Again I'm not rooted.

I'm having the same issue.Stock phone and gear.Did all the above steps and still no messaging. You mentioned reinstalling your rom-how did you do that on a stock phone?
Anyone know of any tutorials or how-to guide for.developing a simple app for the gear?
I know how.to build an android app for smartphone device but not sure where to start watching the gear.

If you know how to make an app for a smartphone you know how to make one for the gear.
The only real difference is the screen size, else it's pretty straight forward.

So after I make a simple hello world app, how do push it to the gear?
Sent from my SGH-M919 using xda app-developers app
I push apps using adb install.
Sent from my SM-N9005 using xda app-developers app
Yes, ADB it is.
I have mine in the cradle connected to the computer and debugs my apps just as when I´m developing for regular devices.
Thanks guys, I get it now. I thought the apps were different for gear.

Ok, how about developing my own watch face app. similar to "neon : digital watch"? Just a basic watch face. Can anyone point me to a tutorial on how to get started?
I tried decompiling neon:digital watch but i didn't find much code and xml files weren't really readable.
After googling all i can find is "to use watchstyler".
I would like to build a basic app to learn how the watch face is setup.
i guess this is why i can't find any information on this
http://news.cnet.com/8301-1035_3-57609639-94/this-is-why-there-arent-more-samsung-galaxy-gear-apps/
says the app store is invite only so i guess their documentation is not public...
I know that the SDK for the gear 2 came out, no updated news about the original gear?
Can we develop apps running on gear with Internet access?
"Envoyé depuis mon GT-I9505 avec Tapatalk"
In gear manager I select on left side 'Notifications' then on the right side they are all ticked like email and messaging etc...
But I get none, no sms and no gmail and no stock email from email app, no facebook, no twitter, nothing!!!
Can someone help please
Thanks

I am still on 4.2 stock could that be what is causing no notifications.....
or could it be Apex Launcher.....will try that one,....
So far all I can use the watch is to make and receive calls, nothing else
You need 4.3 or higher

Thanks for your help, does it need to be stock 4.3 or could I use a custom rom

For full features, you need a touchwiz rom. If you use custom, you get most (limited) features
