Has anyone tried installing tizen apps from the Samsung Apps store (start it from the Gear Manager), since they updated their gear1 to run on Tizen?
I'm just wondering if my Multi-Watch app is available for the gear 1 and runs on it withoud problems.

Hi klwinkel
I am unable to see your app in the store for some reason? I would very much like to try it if you could help me please.
I have the gear1 upgraded to tizen within the last hour.

Thanks, lol, I actually already cleared both data/cache from your response in other thread because I thought that's what you meant. So this time I did it for "Watchstyler", loaded back into Gear Manager and it still didn't show. So I ran watchstyler app on phone, then went back into Gear Manager.... Clocks, still not showing.

So, the number of apps for gear1-Tizen is increasing?
Slowly, some watch styler created faces for android are a bit crazy now with tizen, I.e. the artwork and analogue hands etc off centre miss aligned. Most of my favorite wsthemes work though.

I wanted to start a place to let everyone know about really cool software for the gear. Here are two that I really like:
Mini Gallery - Allow you to display the photos local on the phone on the Gear!
WatchStyler - Allows you to create your own watch faces with any picture!
Do you see any more that I may have missed? Let us know!

i found "Mini Gallery" in the Samsung app on Note 3, download it, got text "show app in GEAR administrator" pressed and found it in "my programs / installed" as Mini Gallery. There is no tool / wheel behind Mini Gallery,here ? as in the other originally Gallery. So nothing to set. I rebooted Note 3 and rebooted also GEAR, but nothing helps, I can still only see, on the GEAR, those 3 images i photographed with the GEAR, no pictures from Note 3 gallery. I need help !!
I just tried a bunch of sound effect apps and these 3 worked for me:
Peanut Gallery (multi sound great layout for the gear)
The real Drama Button (One button Baa baa baa!)
OMG! Button multi sound not so great layout)

Atooma seems to be a rudimentary tasker type app.
I played around with a bit, made a profile where the vertical movement would silence my phone but the controls are way to sensitive. Just moving your wrist is enough to trigger the action. Not a bad start I guess, what profiles or uses can you guys think of?
Another semi cool action I made is when I flick my wrist, my phone opens up google now.

May be a cool way to send quick messages, need to check it out more.
I tried to set up a rule to send gmail messages, but when they come through on the gear, it just give the subject and time of the email and says to check the phone for more info.
This is interesting, are we installing this on our gear or our phones ?
Both. you need the app on your phone from the play store and the Gear app from the Gear manager app store.

You can install Wondershare Mobile2Go on pc (free trial 30 days), then appmonster free on Galaxy Gear and you can share Atooma's apk.

Thank you thank you !
I assume this is for the gear ? Could you please supply the apk for phone ?
EDIT: Verified the APK supplied is for the gear.
The reason for this is the Atooma APK we have available on the play store is not compatible with gear.
Here's the APK from the phone
(It is too big to attach to the forum)
I've stopped using it on the Gear as the notifications just say to check the phone for more detail.
Using the Samsung email app seems to be the only way at the moment to get email details to the Gear.
I cant get these working together !
I install both apk's, although I cant see any options for the gear on the atoomba app..
I just recieve a "Please check Atooma phone app." error on the gear.
^^^I get the same as well
After both are installed(phone and watch) you have to enable the gear as a device in the Atooma phone app.
It's under the "connections" tab.

Hi, I just got a Gear 2 Neo and instead of using it with my Galaxy S4, I decided to use it with my LG G2. Just wanna share my experience here for someone else has the need which is similar to mine.
I could get it working with my LG G2 with full notification by installing the following APK of Gear Manager: http://www.mediafire.com/download/yo17ta4qyrx50zj/GearManager1_2.apk
However, without the ability to install S-Health, my activities like step counts, heart rate... doesnt get to be synced to my phone. And one more thing, I could check the update and found the new update but when I chose to install, the app got forced closed.
Love the Gear 2 Neo so far!!!

Have any of you tried Gear Manager version 1.7.040401 on your non Samsung phone? I keep getting an error when I try to (re)pair my HTC M8 with the Gear 2 Neo.
It works just fine with the Gear Manager posted on the OP, though (aside from the crashes when I try to update the Gear 2 Neo).

Crashes in the update software is understandable, we don't have samsung store... It works flawlessly here using the op apk.
A few minor glitches left, like s -health not working or notification for some apps showing only the app name and not the content (xabber for example), some missing apps like weather (tw dependancy), or no way to install third party apps like the sleep tracker (nobody released it, it's only on samsung store).
Appart from above, all functions of the watch are supported and working !

With the Galaxy Manager posted on the OP, the Gear 2 Neo will *probably* work out of the box. I said probably, because I've only tested it with the HTC One M8. I don't have any other Android phone I can test with at the moment.
To be fairly honest, I haven't spent too much time checking out all the features that work (and don't), but if I recall correctly:
• Notifications from the phone will be forwarded to the G2N just fine; this includes most third party applications (like Facebook Messenger, WhatsApp, Hangouts, etc.)
• Contacts and Dialer, and I was able to make a call from the G2N (this goes through my M8)
• Find My Device (both G2N and M8 can "ping") each other
What doesn't work:
• Gallery (doesn't show any picture at all)
• Music Player (to be honest, not sure what it really does either)
• S-Voice will not work, in any under circumstances with non-Samsung phones, due to missing dependencies (TouchWiz Framework, and the S-Voice itself, which also relies on TouchWiz).
• Gear Updater, which crashed whenever you try to update your Gear through Gear Manager. There might be alternative ways to update your G2N though… but that's just theories at the moment.
• Weather, as it also relies on another Samsung-only app.
Limited Functionality
• Pedometer, Sleep Tracker, Exercise and other S-Health related features are limited to just the G2N. You can still record the data, but you can't sync or send it to the phone, as the these S-Health related data can only be viewed using S-Health (and this is limited to just Samsung phones only)
I can't remember what the latest update for the G2N is, but I believe it added Sleep Tracker (which has Do Not Disturb mode on it, or whatever the Samsung equivalent to DND)

Maybe you could sync using s-health lite posted on xda with the latest g2n fw. It was not working with mine but I don't have sleep tracker nor DND so I must have an earlier fw...

It seems that S-Health Lite has another dependencies related to Samsung Account; because it appears that it wants me to log-in to Samsung Account. And without logging in, the app is useless and not pulling/displaying data from the G2N.
Edit:
I went into a Rogers store and I updated my G2N using their S5, so I am on the latest firmware.
I got it to connect to my LG G2 and I get no notification pushed to the watch. Nothing is being pushed to the watch for notification. I can place a call with the gear but nothing else.

I'm beginning to thing it is because my gear is rooted. Another user brought this up in several threads and he is rooted to but having a different but somewhat similar issue and not able to run WatchStyler.

There's already a new "Camera" app I was able to push (From the General Root discussion thread) to up recording from 15 sec. to 90 sec.
At the time, there where some watches released/converted to .wgt format to work by pushing to gear via SDB if rooted.
Hoping more "tweak" and whatnot become available since usually rooting a device opens up a whole new world of opportunity.
I just seen a post in the Gear Watch designs threads in "Apps" section that a user who is rooted reports their WatchStyler is working fine so now I'm stumped a bit.
I haven't been able to find it in Samsung Apps.

I just seen a post in the Gear Watch designs threads in "Apps" section that a user who is rooted reports their WatchStyler is working fine so now I'm stumped a bit.

Very good reasons! I had no idea. Maybe try pushing watch styler to gear, or unrooting then installing watch styler and re-rooting will work?

Are you looking in Samsung apps via gear manager, and not the Samsung apps app itself?

Someone else just mentioned this of sorts in the Gear Watchstyler theme thread, yet I have no idea how to push it to watch in Tizen. And even if there is a way, how do I download a free standing .apk or whatever of Watchstyler to attempt this when all I know is it's showing up on phone's Gear Manager - Samsung Apps to directly install through phone that way which is what I did.
So confused... :crying:

I've searched in both. Searched for Watch Styler and WatchStyler. Nothing showing up. I'll keep looking.

it should be in clocks in Samsung apps from the gear manager
watchstyler is very buggy, digital watches don't work and they crash watch styler
it takes a while to update the watch face sometimes, sometimes it fast sometimes its longer

I I can't even find the Clocks section/category. I am looking in Samsung Apps from Gear Manager. Not a big deal, just wanted to give it a try.

Try this link. It's for the playstore but should install it.

Hrmmm I'm running UK Tizen on my watch since there is no USA version release yet and USA firmware/ROM on my phone.
Could that be it?

Once you install the cnn app via gear manager it should give you a prompt to install CNN app on phone via playstore.

It didn't do that.
Install all files provided in this zip package and pair as usual. Calls and notifications work fine.
hi,
just to be sure. i install all of this on my Galaxy S2 and connect via bluetooth? S2 has noNFC...
thx.
cheers
Sure. It'll work IF your s2 discovers the gear from within the gear manager
install all files where...?
on my device,on the gear,i just bought a galaxy gear 1st gen off of a friend and paired it with my jiayu S3S (64bit mtk soc),am still very green when it comes to smart wear this is my first,i think i have rooted the gear,(not sure for certain),and am looking to flash a custom rom and/or kernel to the device,sorry to go a little off topic in your thread

Install on the phone. If this doesn't work for you then a custom ROM for the gear should be your best bet

So i installed these files on my Nexus 6 Lollipop and it WORKS!. Only issue I have left is the extended notifications are not working. I am using Textera for SMS and not the default messaging app so i cannot get SMS notifications. Anyone have any ideas?

What about calls, are they still redirected by default to the gear (which is really annoying)?

Calls are directed to the gear and for some reason I can't add my bluetooth headset as the audio only. i have tried diabling the phone audio option for the Gear but it still sends the calls to it. I'll keep messing around with the settings to see how it works. Last night I was able to install watchstyler on the phone by installing the apk and i can use those clocks now. Also, the watch is on non-stock Android rom from these forums.

Hi, you are using Gear1? Tizen or Android? Sounds very interesting if this procedure works with gear manager 2.2, gear1 tizen and non Samsung lollipop!

Here is my setup:
Phone: Nexus 6
Phone OS: Lollipop 5.0.1
GG1: Android Null ROM 23
Gear manager ver: 2.2.15022599
FYI, I tried using the default messaging app on Lollipop but I still cannot see SMS on the GG1.

Ahhhh crap, I thought it's a Tizen device... You had my heart skipped a beat
Mine's a Gear 2 with Tizen. Guess we ain't getting Gear Manager to work with Tizen Gear after all...

Nice attemp my friend solrac21. I look forward to hear your outcome on the compatibility. I'm on Z Ultra, and want to jump to the ship of Lollipop, as soon as Gear Manager works on Lollipop !
Hello Friends, i have the Galaxy Gear with a HTC One M7 ... apparently works but i have two issues,
1) the pics taked by the gear did not sync with the phone.
2) The gear have not load the phone contacts. (There is really important for me)
Somebody have information about it?
Thanks in advance.
