I updated the gear to MK7 and gear manager to 1.5 and cannot receive notifications on the gear. Everything is turned on in gear manager. Any suggestions?

If you don't mind losing setting on the gear you can wipe the gear and start from scratch...
1: Press and hold the power button until it shows:
"Samsung Galaxy Gear
Rebooting..."
2: While on that screen, press the power button 5 times
3: this should bring you to to a menu. cycle through the options and select recovery
4: to choose, press the button for 3 seconds.
5: Wait for it to wipe...
6: Once done, set it up as a new device!
Hopefully that fixes it!
EDIT: When (or if) it asks to restore from a backup, select NO!
I am using a third party app by the same dev that does the K9 email call Melwin, I get a notification of the email with the header but I cant read the email, is it possible to do this with the Gear?? I have the latest Mk7 Null 10.1 and the latest Gear manager app as well. Thanks

Unfortunately that isn't something that is wrong with the gear, it is just the way the Gear Manager formats the notification to be displayed on the gear. There is always the possibility of getting that email app on the gear itself, however!
Make this a sticky please!

Im using mobileGo to install apps to the gear but it seems to now work. this started happening after installing Null.
Also for some reason it seems that don't have root since it wont let me run root browser.

Well, the Null ROM is pre-rooted... All I can think is try running a root verification app to see if it is truly rootedand Root Browser is misbehaving, or if it is unrooted for some reason...

As long as you follow the Null rom instructions from the page one of the ROM thread - it should be no obstacles. Please read carefully.
Please be aware that in most cases US providers block BT tethering, so for internet access please check it on your phone first.

If you want to keep it stock, download the ROM from here!
It is for Britain, but it works for the USA as well!
What should we be using on installing apps to the gear? Should I keep using WonderShare?
no Bluetooth tethering option on watch
No option in settings<Bluetooth<settings. My only options are rename and unpair. Where is my tethering option?

"ADB install [Apk file]"
Just make sure you actually have adb installed! but you need the APK... Wondershare works just fine!

Ahh, US phones seem to have this issue... Make sure you go into the "more settings" right under the bluetooth and wifi switches select tethering and hotspot and check off Bluetooth tethering. If not, it is a limitation put in place by AT&T. The only thing that would help is a new ROM...or a mod of some sort.

You should, yes.
Couple of questions
Just have 3 questions. Is there anyway to increase the in call volume of the Gear? I have it turned all the way up to 6 and its barely audible on a call. I know the little speaker is capable because on youtube clips this thing is crazy loud.
Second question. I have looked everywhere for the 1.5 version of gear manager. I checked the sigs and I still cant find it. Can you post a link to the apk?
Third and last question. How do you toggle the touchwiz and nova launcher?
T.I.A.
Great Rom!
So now most of us have got gear manager running on the Nexus 5 / Non Samsung Devices. Has anyone had any success getting the notifications to work? I have notifications on and more notifications on but using the stock notifications app for the Gear, finds no notifications. I also ran a logcat to see if any errors come up when sending notifications like a SMS / skype message through and could not find any errors..
Maybe offer a bounty to get "stock notifications" from Gear Manager?

Someone help me. I reset the gear and now I'm stuck at the screen with the gear telling me to dock the device with the phone. I don't have the note 3, so how can I get this going? Can I root the gear as is or do I have to have access to setting to enable USB debug?

I was stuck in the same situation... only difference I am running a Note 2 with cm11.
I figured out that the version of Gear Manager I had was too old and was my problem. After removing all traces of the older version and updating to 1.5.120903 I was able to successfully pair my devices together and I was then able to get into settings to enable USB debugging and continue the process of installing this fine ROM.
The only thing I am still unable to get working is notifications.
Anyone pair iphone with the gear?
There should be a step by step guide to get gear manager to work with Nexus 5. I installed gear manager stub and gear manager and still stuck at the setup connect.

You can't use notifications if you don't have a 4.3 rom installed. Is built into the framework as of now

My NEXUS5 with KITKAT 4.4.2 and GEAR(null_17 ROM)
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 :good:
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:

logs call :good:
gallery :good:
camera(make and send directly to the phone in gallery) :good:

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.

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.
Hi XDA, I'm new to the gear and new to the forum. I just followed a guide on how to sideload apps using ADB. I am able to successfully install these apps, but am not able to see them on the list of apps on my phone or on my Gear when they are paired. If I disconnect the gear from my phone and reset the gear, I'm able to see these apps. Does anybody have any idea?
I also installed NOVA and then changed the default of the home button to always be touchwiz (since I want my Gear to be more like a watch and not a mini tablet), but have no way to go to Nova unless I disconnect and reset my Gear. Any ideas or help? Thanks.
I've noticed this too. My gut feeling is that its going into gear manager on my phone that does it as that only lists the conventionally installed apps rather than the side loaded ones.

I'm having the exact same issue.
If I reboot my watch with bluetooth off, my sideloaded apps show up with no issues. The second I enable bluetooth and my watch and phone connect, the apps get hidden. Are there any solutions to this problem?
Hi
Since I update my GG1 to Tizen, it doesn't sync its podometer with S Health anymore... When I try manually, S Health claim that there is a sync error...
It seems that Samsung updated GG1 to Tizen in order to said that they update even their "old" products, without however improve the compatibility...
Damn Samsung... What are you doing ???

The same problem
I have exactly the same problem. Just some new additional fitnes programm was installed (it is connected with the old one somehow) and that's all, I alwas just recieve connection error message. Also Watch Styler doesn't work anymore.. I wish I could go back to Android till it is solved.
I will also go back to Android if Samsung can't make a correct compatibility between GG1, Tizen and the phone...
The only problem is that we cannot go back to Android from Tizen...
You must use fitness with gear app now.

Same problem here.
In Gear Manager, I go to Fitness>Menu>Sync Now and it says "Sync Complete"
Then, I go into S Health > Settings > My accessories
It says my Gear is connected
I tap on the sync icon
It says "Syncing" for about 10 seconds, then says "Failed to sync. Try again."
Kind of makes the fitness apps on the Gear useless if the data can't be imported into S Health.

Just as an update to this...
I had to do a factory reset on my Note 3 yesterday and now S Health syncs with the Gear ok. I don't really use s health, so it didn't bother me before. But, I just tried it and it's syncing now.
I'm having the same issue. Tried uninstalling/reinstalling Fitness with Gear, no luck. If I go into S Health -> Settings -> My Accessories, I see my Gear 2 as "connected" but clicking its "sync" button also fails.
