I have null rom installed on my galaxy gear1 and then installed tablet notifier on my note3.
when i try to connect via tablet notifier even though the device does show on the list it will not connect.
in gear manager it is connected and working.
i just want a method for passing notifications ... becoming rater difficult and is really meaningless having null on when basic things arent achievable.
Try: galaxy gear sms client. Thread somewhere here on xda. Follow instructions exactly! Works for me.

Note this will only bluetooth pair, *not* gear manager connect. I know, limited use, but perhaps this step might help some other dev move forward in creating compatibility with other devices than samsung (especially those who don't have one, like me!
1. Build and install this app: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/14228289/android-device-bluetooth-pairing (or any app that can unpair / remove bonds)
2. Use it to unpair with your current gear manager device (click on the device in the list in the app, it should remove it)
3. Now, pair with your non samsung device
4. Should now pair without resetting
another approach
1. Pair and reset with another non samsung device. It will pair but that's it.
2. Pair with your Samsung Device (or go to the store and pair with a demo model)
3. Your device should still be paired with your non samsung device
For people who are trying gear manager connect via another device, there has been some success by installing all of the accessory APKs here:
http://www.mediafire.com/folder/iej2...Android43)_All
And then trying to connect. Note how it goes from 0/19 folders to 0/2 or so.
Another approach suggested: (hat tip jtuzyk : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2488516, reported to work with HTC One and Moto X)
Using another method i came across i was able to pair with HTC one, answer calls and use watch styler
1. Install Galaxy Gear APK manually
2. When Galaxy Gear App opens it tries to install 0/19 files it will restart and say 0/18
3. When it says 0/18, locate "GEAR" folder on SDCARD, inside it will create another APK. Manually install this apk.
4. Close Gear App and Repeat Process, i got all the way down to 0/8 (Music service apk fails) but the Gear is still usable for calls.

Anyways, let us know your success and failures and what platform / version of os you tried it on. Any information you provide can be helpful.
Tried it on various apple products, and it works! And by it, I mean only the dialer, and the watch speakerphone.

Yeah, that Bluetooth headset part is the only part that works without the gear manager (works like a standard Bluetooth headset)
So after installing the null rom on my gear, my gear manager said I updated it and asked if it wanted to restart but I might lose some apps. I clicked cancel and now my gear is disconnected to the gear manager and I cant seem to connect them again. The gear manager is unable to find the gear after the rom installation. Anybody can help me? Also, how do you add applications on the dock of the apex launcher? The google functions dont work on my samsung gear on null rom 22.1 build. Whenever I try to connect to my google account, it says, "google manger has stopped working" and closes. Any suggestions?
Try to uninstall and install again the gear manager if not try to do a factory reset on your gear, i recommend you to do on any update a nandroid because this is a common issue that every time we receive an update from Samsung the gear restores, if you want to install another applications use google play on your gear with Bluetooth tether from your phone to the gear and you will be able to download applications from play store
So I picked up a Gear about a week ago to pair with my HTC One. I thought if I couldn't get it to work I could give it to my wife to use with her S4 or I would pick up a Samsung phone. I would like to say I am very new with flashing roms or doing anything of the sort. So I started with doing a lot of searching on this site and reading up with how to flash the rom on the Gear to something that I could pair with the HTC One. I installed TWRP and got that working correctly when I boot the Gear into Recovery mode. What took awhile was getting the Null_23 Rom onto the Gear where I could install it. After trying to do it with ABD (and failing) I found a video that used Wonder Share. I went with this system. I paired the device with my wife's Samsung so I could enable Debugging mode, was able to pair the Gear with WonderShare and push the Null 23 Rom to it.
Went into recover, did a full wipe, then installed the Null 23 rom, rebooted unit, it ask if I want to use Apex Launcher, Nova Launcher, and a 3rd option that I can not remember at the moment. But The Apex Launcher and Nova Launcher icons are in the programs menu, I can use them at any time and change the layout of the home screen.
So after installing this Rom I am able to pair the Gear with my HTC One. Now on the Gear, I can answer a phone call, the caller ID works, I can sent the call to my phone to answer but I can not dial out to make a call from the Gear,Contact do not show up, Notifications do not work for text messaging, The seconds on the clock are correct but it will not link up in the correct time zone for the hours. Calender does not work. I can connect the Gear to the internet with pdaNET and the web browser will work. The Google Play Store ask me to log into or make a new account, but when I try to do either it stops working.
I have starting working on the notifications first, but haven't been able to get them to work correctly.
A short list of what works
Answering Calls
Clock keeps times, but has wrong hour, this is probably something simple but I haven't looked into it yet
Camera takes Pictures
pdaNET
Web Browser
Items I would like to work
Notifications,
Calender sync
Contact sync
Dial out to make call
I think if I can get these few functions to work that more will fall in line.
Thank you for any help

For notifications you should go with ATN Notifier, there are many threads on this issue.
For dialing out, it worked for me after syncing my Google contacts. Have you logged into your Google account? That should help, I guess. Same with Calendar sync, but this will use Internet access to be up to date and therefore drains your battery pretty quick.
I would also recommend to install Gear Manager (1.6XX) to use gear apps like runtastic, turn by turn navigation and so on. Check out Brendans Folder!
Good luck!
Running 4.4.2 on a rooted LGG2. After reading on the forums, I have my (completely stock) GG connecting to my G2 and it seems to work, BUT I don't get any notifications, music player doesn't work... facebook app doesn't seem to work and I get an error saying
"Samsung apps not installed"
My path so far has been to install an older version of watchmanager 1.6.132701, along with the apps.
The watch connected after that.
I then installed the updated watch manager 1.7.031004
My watch then updated itself, and rebooted twice.
I have since installed several apps (ebay and facebook) from the forum, but they don't seem to communicate with the watch properly.
So my next step is installing a custom ROM on the watch?
Will bluetooth conversations on the watch ever work?
If I could get ebay, mail, and text notifications working I'd probably be satisfied.
Thanks for any help!

null rom is about the only one available atm
nullproject.net
null rom has Bluetooth tethering profile which will allow apps on watch to connect to internet
check the themes and apps section for notification options
check other device threads in gear forum to see how they achieved best setup

Thanks for the replies guys.
So if I install the null rom, will I be able to use the bluetooth audio function of the watch to make and receive calls?
I always used to be able to read any short gmail message in my gear 1. Now it just says Gmail but nothing else...no body nor even who it is from. I still get complete messages from samsung note 3 stock email app. Outlook app also only notifies how many messages I have. Does anybody know why I don't get complete gmail messages in gear 1 any more? I am on latest version of gear manager.

In the latest versions of Gear Manager, Samsung disabled the option to view full notifications for several apps (the apps you have installed onto your phone, not the ones already implemented onto the Gear itself).
Here's how you can revert back to older version and get back all full notifications : http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-gear/help/broken-notifications-gear-manager-heres-t2915460
Only "problem" is that it keeps nagging, after you are back to old version, to update Gear Manager.
Just ignore those nagging messages untill a newer version is out which enables full notifications again.
It wouldn't work. Perhaps because I'm not rooted? I uninstalled everything. I believe it was 5 different apps. I shut off watch. Shut off bt and data. Installation went fine. It showed my watch as paired but would not allow me to change any settings until it scanned for device....so I let it scan but watch off so it found nothing but finally shut itself off. Next I turned on watch and scanned several times (scanning from gm automatically turns on bt). It could never connect to watch. Watch on, bt on but it just could.not find watch even though it was already listed as paired. I tried resetting watch and restarting phone but nothing helped. Finally I turned on data and I could not cancel the forced update.
Are you on Tizen or Null ?
Watch doesn't has to be rooted, I performed same procedure both on my rooted S5 as well as on my non-rooted S4.
Both have older version now with full notifications.
I'm on Null and not Tizen
Tizen
100% stock qnd updated note 3
Maybe you should "downgrade" (although it's actually upgrading) to Null.....it's better anyway
Nah, maybe the next gm update will fix. Thanks anyway. Wish this forum were more active. Folks may know other solutions but nobody reads it anymore
