You can only use bluetooth, nfc only works for pairing the watch to your phone.

So, if I understand correctly, once I pair my watch to my phone I can turn off NFC and leave bluetooth on?

Hello mates
Since i cant find a USB-OTG cable in my country does anybody know a way to connect the controller without it?
Thanks in advance

You'll need a paid app for that, plus root.
Sixaxis Controller
Instructions are detailed in the app itself, but basically you can set the pairing master mac address on the controller via USB to the PC and have the cell phone identify the controller wireless.

Without, yes.
A totally different working method.

Yeah, it works as intended, lagless. I used it when I was on a CM based rom, which lacked the Sony thing. It did well.
Buy it on eBay dude, it cost like US$5 plus Free Shipping.. You can do that money with Whaff app (already cheked out like US$150 with Whaff). I bougth cover case, NFC tags, BT joystick, headphones, XBOX 360 games...

Auto bluetooth connect

Is there a way for the gg auto reconnect to the phone if it goes out of range and then comes back in range? Not sure it is something I need to do with the gear or the phone itself.
I hate having to manually reconnect my gg.

Mine reconnects automatically. Wonder if it is buried in the settings somewhere.

The problem is not to have Android 4.3
On S4 with 4.2.2 it did not reconnect itself. With 4.3 it does.

it s true: with 4.3, reconnection is done, and, surprise: I can connect my S4 with my gg AND my car at the same time !! (not with 4.2.2) => very useful.

I had no problems with 4.2.2 reconnecting or car, but 4.3 definitely more reliable reconnecting to watch
Thanks guys... Guess I will have to wait for update

[Q] Music

I read that the Gear 2 can store music on it. Can our Gear 1s store music despite not using Tizen yet?

Does it require rooting or will it work like a standard Android Directory?

I rooted mine as soon as I got it so I'm not sure. I recommend rooting and flashing null v23 rom mate, its a big improvement over stock.

Just side load a music player and transfer side music. Only holds 4gb

Sideload the Apollo player, as it works great, and without any rooting needed. It does not (yet) allow playing to a bluetooth headset, only the watch speaker, but we can hope they add this function, as the Gear 1 does bluetooth, so why not?
I would prefer a bluetooth headset lol, but thanks anyways.

Whenever I buy a new phone, this is the first app I run to find out if everything is functioning. It will tell you if your device has any borked sensors.

What I mean. Is there a method that can be used for phones without root, IE an s5 through AT&T
I don't think so because it has to change the parameters to work with the ps3 controllers bt

Need root and use the six axis app. and this is the only way to run.
depending on the phone you do "not" need root. It even says that on their website and sixaxis playstore app
Are you sure?
