What with Google Android Wear coming out, has anyone thought about creating a custom Android Wear distro for our Gear? Even if Samsung does come out with a new firmware that is based on Android Wear for our Gear, I think an opensource version would probably be far more desirable than a tamed down and customized version.... For instance it won't be automatically tied to S Voice, and we can use whatever voice assistant we desire.

Now that my Gear Live is updated to Marshmallow, I noticed that the original Android Wear face that I liked is not on the watch anymore, so I was wondering if anyone knew where I could get it?
Samsung Phonecast don't work anymore since the Update to Android 10 on my S10.
Before that i could use any App on Phonecast qhile the Oculus App Store s bery limited.
My Phone was fully Usable in Gear with Phonecast.
Now it ist nearly Useless with the Gear. The only Apps i can use in Oculus on the Gear are Youtube and Netflix. Phonecast starts but when i start an App on Labs, it will not start and leeps loading without sucess.
Since the Update on Android 10 My GameLauncher is now difficult to start too, because i can not use it from the Buttom of the Screen. The Gamelauncher has no Link on its Quickpanel and i have to go over the Quickpanel of the Phone on the Top of the Screen.
I can not use my Linux App anymore since the Update on Android 10. Samsungs Linus on Dex Beta worked fine before, even qhen Samsung stopped supporting it, but since the Android 10 Update, i can not use it anymore.
And last, but not least, i can not go back to Android 9
Obviously Samsung did that intentionlly to force to dissaude us from the Gear VR like they did that with Linux on Beta.
Therefore to keep your will and to self-determined, you have to prevent the Update. But even that Samsung and Google want to enforce by announcing to force automated Updates in the next Future.
They want to dictate us how to use Equipments.
Wasn't it the Reason why Android was developed?
Now they use this against us.
But back to my first Problem:
Wgat is going wrong with Samsung Phonecast on Gear VR, when using it with Android on S10?

I am mainly using the watch to interact with my IoT devices. which one of those will get me the best results?
Both apps do the same in essence but in a different way.
I decided to use GAssist.net a long time ago with the original Galaxy Watch
Then upgraded to the Active 2 and set it up again with ease.
At that point I added it to my fathers Galaxy Watch 3 and we are loving it.
Great app for google assistant users such as ourselves.
Not sure about G-Voice but I was able to get personal results turned on for my watches.
Allowing for many features that are necessary to call the assistant functional.
Good luck and enjoy!

Hi, as confirmed : https://www.huaweicentral.com/harmonyos-eligible-devices/amp/
Will a user be able to opt out from installing the Harmony OS Update?
It appearently won't be running android and many of my favorite apps are Android such as my Google apps.
Your feedback is appreciated,
Thanks
might be able to block system updates from development options. at this point i will take the update if by some weird chance i get it before i can buy a p50 pro, sadly i dont trust google anymore than i do the CCP
Harmony OS IS in fact Android as much as I know, but there is no google apps and no Play store.
As far as I read, normally Android apps should work if installed as apk.
Harmony OS could have an advantage in fact: It will be OpenSource!
So it is not much different from any custom rom as far as I see it. The only thing will be that there are no google apps and some apps which need google services won#t work as banking apps etc.
Maybe there will be a workaround or Huawei will get together with the most needed apps and will support them in their own App store.
Hello all.
If I look on the internet for "Android auto alternative" then I get apps for on phone itselves, that use phone screen.
For unrooted android smartphone.
I want to know if their is a (prefer open source like f-droid apps) real alternative for android auto, that shows apps on the car entertainment system (in my case a Subaru from 2020).
I don't want android auto because:
- I need to install google apps, but I removed as much google and huawei apps as possible on my huawei mate 20x 5G.
- google decide what apps are accesssable/supported by android auto.
-with every android auto app update it is fingers crossed if the used apps are still available (for example Signal app suddenly gone from car screen).
So what none google app can I use to get my phone screen on my car multimedia system that supports android auto.
You can try MirrorLink if supported. But there is no other alternative as far as I know.
Unfortunately.
