S5 pedometer is WAYYYY off - Galaxy S 5 General

This is the Jawbone UP band compared to s5. For some reason, s5 counts the double number of steps as the Jawbone band. I trust the Jawbone band way more

Maybe the jawbone only counts every other step?

Exactly. I end up each day like with 20k steps or something of the sort

Yeah the s4 used to count steps while in the car

Haha, yeah. I got outa bed the other day, went to the loo, went to make lunches for the kids for school, back to the bedroom to go shower, i had walked 0.5km. Didn't realize my house was that big...

A month ago i did a test with my S5 pedometer vs my fitbit one, the difference was not much, the difference of 13 steps...

Basically, the s5 pedometer is a useless gimmick, unless you divide by 2.

Most of the pedometers aren't accurate anyway. Every one I've come across I can get it to increment without taking a single step.

I'm not gonna even try to defend the pedometer, in the s5 or the gear2 neo. I don't even think mine are in sync with each other, but it is nice to know I achieved some sort of goal.
Even if the count is way off, my weekday habbits are similar enough that it is nice to reach a goal.

I used to run a large distribution warehouse for some high end home theater brands (such as Bowers& Wilkins). Doing inventory one year, sending a message to my boss, the VP of Warehouse Ops., that was supposed to read: "We're almost done with preliminary counts."
Auto-correct changed counts to ****s. I guess I cuss too much via text.

But the items change throughout the day and this might help some people catch the really good deals they might otherwise miss. Judging from the other posters, it made some people's day better. Sorry it doesn't help you. SMH and facepalm

Galaxy Gear Protection..

For Gear owners. I had already purchased some screen protectors for my Galaxy Gear, but to tell the truth I haven't bothered to put them on. They are just plain screen protectors.. But, this really caught my eye, and I order it right away. Comes in different colors too..

How was the application process of this particular protector? It looks awesome. I'm thinking about getting one as well.

Just leave the back portion of the skin off... cut it off if need be... I'm ordering one and I'm not really that worried about something scratching the back of my Gear... where my wrist is going to be nearly all the time.
No need to cut anything of you get it from stickerboy.net. Mine fits in the cradle perfectly.

I bought the clear ones. Easy to apply. Just make sure you follow the instructions. You can move the skin around while it's still wet so you can line it up better. I like this better then the dry method. I've had mine since Dec and still going strong. One side has some adhesive that's helping stay in place.

Maybe because you only broke the screen and not the digitizer?
