Hey Guys I have a factory Note 2 and just bought a galaxy gear the other day. I have seen reports of this watch working with the s4 and even the htc one. Can someone help me get this thing working with my note 2? I found the .apk file online and was able to download and install it to my note 2 and successfully connect the gear to my note 2 via bluetooth but the gear seems to be stuck on the spinning screen. It will take and send calls via the phone and work as a bluetooth head set but that's all. Thanks again in advance for all the help!!!
Not sure it is currently working with gn2. I think you will have to wait for 4.3 like the rest of us. The clock working on it? I have the gn2 as well and been waiting for someone to mention they got it working. If you got it to sync I assume you got the clock at least working.

Will have to wait until November for 4.3 on N2 Unless someone will root Gear earlier
After playing with it for a while I finally got it to work with the apk file posted on another thread here. CONFIRMED the galaxy gear works for the factory 4.1.2 note 2. Unfortunately so far the weather, contacts, notifications and svoice doesn't sync with the gnote2 but everything else seems to work.

The 2nd post in the thread titled "gear mmanager .apk" I too was stuck on the spinning wheel when I hit the gear manager from the aptoid app. The one referenced in there works well.

No problem! Glad I could help I can't wait for the update to take full use of the watch but until then im satisfied with how much it'll do. Good luck with getting it working for your device!
Same place as you currently but glad it isn't a paper weight waiting lol. Wonder if we change the device specs like how you can install Google wallet. If we do this wonder if we could access programs and stuff for the watch also.

Yea I know right lol I dont know. . . I could be worth a try but I think the phone needs the 4.3 update for the new bluetooth compatability. I can honestly say that I'm kinda of disappointed that Samsung hasn't released the 4.3 update for the s3, s4, and note 2 already.
I wanted to confirm if anyone else was looking that the problems described (

As of right now with stock (NOT ROOTED) NOTE 2 here is a summary of what I have working:
Working:
Camera: Works, syncs on any settings correctly (charging sync only etc)
Timer: Works (doesnt need BT for any function)
Stopwatch: Works (doesnt need BT for any function)
Voice memo: Works, syncs on any settings correctly
Gallery: Works, syncs on any settings correctly
Pedo: Works (doesnt need BT for any function)
Schedule / Calender: WORKS, I've heard others having problems? Mine does sync with my events.
Contacts: WORKS, I've heard others having problems? Mine does sync with my contacts. Settings also change (Choose all contacts or just favorites)
Logs: Works, syncs on any settings correctly
Not Working:
Weather: does NOT work. Gear wants me to change settings on widget / within gear but still doesn't sync weather (displays "no info")
SVoice: does NOT work. Same as weather, wants settings changed in SVoice but still doesn't relay info.
Notifications: Does NOT work. Nothing will push to the Galaxy Gear for a notification (email, sms, google, FB, etc)
As for the apps, I can navagate into the gear manager, select apps, go into the market where the Gear apps exist and attempt to download however once they begin to install I get an error "try later" (0). All gear apps (not included in the gear manager) are not available to me. Not sure if they can be downloaded on the side as .apk's and used? I can't find any to try.
Sidenote: The BT seems to be functioning normally, I get auto detection and maintain pairing all day.

Gear Manager on Note 2 & S3 without Android 4.3

I just picked up my Samsung Galaxy Gear this morning I own an S3 and a Note 2 but yesterday after trying in vain do download the Gear Manager app from the Samsung Apps Store from my desktop browser there it was in the search but it is only available for download through Kies. When you plug in your device, Kies asks for the Android version, won’t accept 4.3 and if you type 4.1.2 then the gear manager app disappears from the search.
I downloaded the apk from xda instead and it installed perfectly on both my devices. It turns out that the Gear and gear manager work properly with the exception of Notifications, the Weather and S-voice. With S-voice you get prompted on the gear to accept the terms of use agreement on your mobile but it does not appear on your device screen so the s-voice use on the gear does not continue. Notifications and Weather update doesn’t work but everything else does.
Cheers!
how dit you conected your gear whit note2??

hi to all, i want to share my experience (sorry for my english, i'm italian)
i have Nexus 5 phone and galaxy Gear(null_17 ROM).
Nexus 5 with KitKat 4.4.2
Galaxy Gear with V700XXUAMK7 with NULL_17 ROM
and watchstyler 1.0.9 (working) with Casio Skin
At first i installed gearmanagerstub.apk
after i just bring "gear manager 1.6 111801.apk" and renamed to "gear manager 1.6 111801.zip"
opened and bring all file in the folder "preinstalledapk"
and run all one by one excepted for "samusic" and "saweather" because fail to installing(but is ok).
after all manual apk installed also installed "gear manager 1.6 111801.apk"
and opened gear manager and start the gear and pairing it. (2 or 3 time but making same test and check and at final running)
if you come from old pairing with other gear manager version example 1.5 or 1.4 etc... just from your sdcard delete the folder ".BManager_backup"
for fix the notification i also installed ATNmanager 1.2.2.apk on the phone, and in the gear i already sended the version of "ATNmanager 1.2.3.1_pre"(only the watch.apk file inside) and i receive all notify on gear by this apps and working fine.
remeber to go in setting->security->allow ATNmanager to read notification
up to now
work:
contact
logs call
gallery
camera(make and send directly to the phone in gallery)
call and receive it.
voice record (record and send on phone, but play with file manager in "sdcard/Sounds/Galaxy_Gear/your recording file"
notification(ATNmanager APP)
no work:
weather
s voice
For me is a good Result
Domenico.
I would think that weather and svoice wouldnt work because these features are twiz based. Thanks for reporting your findings.

These steps have been explained many many many times before. People get tired of repeating the same explanation in every thread. I guarantee people will still ask with this thread's existence. Just spend half an hour searching through the forum.

I found information too but nothing exactly as he put it,only mentions and so on and he quite managed to explain well some things i did not think of. It should be a sticky somewhere for new gear ownners with links and guides.
By they way,any link or way i could get the latest gear working app? thanx !

Are you kidding? Look at your last sentence. Just proves that people don't research on this board and that is the reason why developers get extremely put off. Stop being lazy and do your own research. As I have said, everything has been told to many people, even in the same thread. If you can't figure it out from the available information, maybe you shouldn't be doing it.

I really don't get it why you have to be so negative,things like these should be in first page not for me to look for houres and read pages,some people have other things to do rather than browsing pages for houres,that's why i donate to people that do a good job so i don't have to do it myself. Thank you !
Edit: All i'am saying organisation is key on this website,if there was a proper sticky and info, people would no have to ask in all threads about it. A post "how to make F'king gear manager working on non samsung devices" with 2 links and 3 words as the first guy just poset and voila ! Aparently you support messy information and useless posts.

Oh the first page of threads "Gear Manager Downloads". Nobody is going to want to help you if you've asked questions that show you haven't even looked in the forums for a second. Exactly why the null ROM no longer has direct support in here anymore.

I post all file early.. If you delete and bmmanager folder, just after pairing the gear automaticly reset. Otherway can't paired with phone.
Phore the atn the fast way is install atn 1.2.3.1 with watch paired... After it install all in the watch, disconnect watch from phone and install atn manager 1.2.2 and all notify working. Early I post the file already modded.
I have done all of this….. But I can not for the life of me get any notifications to my gear. None, not a one.
Help is appreciated….

Do you get notification through atn or original notification system? I get through ATN which does the job but not that well looking.
I haven't tried, but it sounds like ATN uses it's own notification system? This is different to notifications going via Gear Manager

Stand alone application that pushes notifications, they come in as emails..
You need to have atleast email notifications enabled in gear manager, ATN handles the rest.
Also you must make sure you enable ATN in accessibility options on your phone so it has permissions to read the notifications.

That's how I assumed it still worked. But then how does it work for nexus since it can't send any notifications what soever (let alone give email as an option)
My gear will not go to USB debugging?

ATN should send the notifications fine..
The reason why the notifications are not working on the nexus is because of the gear manager is not running completely.. I dont think the gear manager notification listener service is being started.
Have a look in accessibility settings do you see anything related to gear manager ? I didnt think to check this..

Hello fellow Gears, my Gear is rooted and I have Null 20 installed. I currently cannot go into the Notifications tab in the Gear Manager to make changes to my notifications. When I tap on the button it hangs the app, and eventually it force closes. I have done some google searches on this topic with the fix being uninstall/reinstall Gear Manager. This did not work for me. Could this be a result of having a Null Rom? Because it didnt start happening until I installed Null on my Watch.
I love Null roms and they have gotten me to the point where I really enjoy my Gear watch. It can do all the things I dreamed it would do when I bought it back in November. Someone please help with this issue. I can't believe that I'm the only one.
Thanks in advance!!

i would download null_21 which includes some fixes from 20. then wipe Gear, install 21 and when syncing to phone hit "Reset" not "Restore". i bet that fixes it for you.
good luck

Svoice isn't working for me after the update either. I would also like a resolution. When I try to open it I get "connection failed".
---------- Post added at 02:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:46 PM ----------
I just rebooted the phone and watch and now Svoice is working.
I didn't update yet to the new Gear Manager, although I received the notification that an update is available.
I've read the reviews and saw that some guys had problems, so I decided to wait.
My Gear 1 works perfectly now with Null_23 and I only want to update if the new Gear Manager brings additional features which are worthwhile.
Can someone tell if the new Gear Manager brings new things ?
Another update for Gear Manager is out!!!
I but I cannot check it, because I left my (non working) Gear at home

I just rebooted the phone and watch and now Svoice is working.

My Svoice had started working again for no apparent reason since my OP.
Unfortunately now saproviders is going nuts again with a force close every 2 seconds while connected ON phone Galaxy S4. And my clearing data with TIBU trick no longer is working as a solutions.
Tired of these constant Gear Manager updates and messing stuff up.
I got another update today, and it did not fix anything. I'm really pissed!
Notifications are off...
I still didn't update my Gear to the newest version (still on version before the 18th of September).
Can someone tell me what's new in the latest version ?
Is it worth upgrading ?
And I really hate that after each upgrade of Gear Manager, the watch is resetted and I have to install everything (I'm on Null 23).
Does someone know a way to backup all data and restore it ?
Can I use Titanium Backup ?
Absolutely does not update, if it works well. Nothing major has been changed, as there are no announcements. Just ignore it.
I'm on null and the latest gear manager update has stopped message previews for whatsapp+ on my gear 1. Anyone know a way to fix this? Really annoying!

Restore an older version of gear manager and turn off updates.

How do you turn off updates? There is no such option.
In gear manager touch your devices name. Then touch "software update". Now UNcheck the box that says "automatic update".
Looks like this

That worked for the first set up, but any time I try to open the manager after to change any settings I get this... Is there a way to stop it checking?

Why do you even need to use the app? Just setup and leave it

Do you never install new apps on ur phone? Don't ever need to set up notifications? No? "just setup and leave it" isn't really a solution to the problem but thanks for ur effort.

I'm sorry I mislead you. Updates in gear manager are for the gear. You need to turn off automatic updating in Samsung's apps settings.

Ahhh! Nice one, that seems to have done the trick. Thanks for the help you're a star!
turn off updates
"Turn off updates" would you please elaborate on that? I tried turning off every update I could find related to the gear(1 null 23) and it still tries to update. When it does say update needed I can't stop it. It will shut Down the gear manager....Thank you.

Would be great if that's possible indeed....
I guess you need to look for an app that shows the directions in the notifications.
I've heared of the new Here navigation app that it shows directions in notifications, but I haven't tried it yet.
Maybe that will help you.
Or, and that's another thought, you need to have a seperate Gear app that interacts with the phone as "server".
Let us know if you have found something, I will search too in the meantime.

I just tried Here on my S5 and it works, but doesn't show directions in notifications (anymore).
I recall I have seen it do that, but now I have the latest beta version and there is absolutely no setting to turn on notifications.
You can download directly to your mobile from this site : http://here.com/beta/android/?lang=en-EN
What OS do you have on your Gear ? Android (Null) or Tizen ?
I have Null_23 on my Gear

I use Android OS Null_22.1 I think. I never want Tizen.
I tried that version of Here but no luck, just crashing
