Hi folks. Buying a Gear 2 neo - Samsung Gear 2 Neo

I am grabbing a neo today and was curious about compatibility with aosp. I have a note 2 currently running cm11 based vanir.
I can go back to tw but I was curious if things would work okay as is?
Also curious about library control for google play music.
Anything else I should know as a new neo owner?

I just asked the exact same question, then read through the forums and found yours. I see no one answered you. Did you find out for yourself? I would really like to know the answer because I'm getting ready to buy a g2n tomorrow and I wanted to be sure because I really don't want to go back to a touchwhiz rom. Thanks

I use the gear with an lg g3 so no tw for me. All works good and with my rom you can also install apk outside the galaxy app store.
You can search the answer for your question also under the gear 2 forum since the hw are basically the same. If a thing works for gear 2 it will works also for gear 2 neo.

S voice issues on Note 2

Hi,
I'm hoping someone can help me with a strange issue. S-voice does not work for me on the GG using a recently updated (4.3 stock rom) Note 2. What I mean is that every time I try to use S-voice a highly distorted voice says "I didn't catch that", regardless of what I say. I tested the device on my gf's Note 3 and it works fine. As such, there are no issues with the GG device, per se. So, I continued to troubleshoot and figured it was my Note 2 S-voice that is the problem. I was thinking that since I installed the G4 s-voice, which worked fine on my Note 2, this might be the cause. I uninstalled S-voice on my phone and tried to run S-voice on the GG. The watch gave me a message stating I needed to install S-voice on my phone. When I looked at my phone it took me to the Samsung app store with the S-voice app ready to download. I installed the app from the app store on my phone and tried again. Same problem. I don't know how to fix this. So, I was wondering if anyone else is having a similar issue. Here is my info.
sgh317m (Canada)
Stock rom 4.3
rooted phone
official s-voice
If I forgot any pertinent details, please let me know.
Thank you everyone in advance.
Omg, same issue here, i317m on Rogers, stock rooted note 2, 4.3 and for the life of me s - voice doesn't work! Same exact issue! I thought I forgot how to s - voice lol!!

I'd be curious to know if you also loaded the S4 s-voice or have you always been using the default version? I noticed Samsung updated the app for the Note 2 in the app store, but I'm not sure if my upgrading unofficially may have cause any issues such, as no longer being a system file? I'm not sure. Such knowledge is beyond me.
Hopefully, a wise soul will enlighten us.
No s4 s - voice... Just stock note 2 s - voice. So, really, it should work as is. Apart from a complete Odin and reroot, I dunno.

Fair to assume you never had an issues with s-voice? I seem to recall when I first put s-voice on my SGS II I had a similar experience to current predicament, but I'm not sure what resolved it.
I've never had an issue at all with s - voice.

Hey guys... found this thread on Google. This was the only note 2 s voice issue with GG that I've found so it's reassuring (unforunately) that this is a common issue...
I have a stock note 2. No mods or anything... s voice does not work at all on galaxy gear. Works 100% brilliantly on the note 2... it's a garbled mess of "I didnt catch that" on the Gear. I've tried everything and I have no accent (just a normal Canadian, eh ; ) lol. ... but of the million commands I gave that are in the "?" Icon as legit 'things to say' it did not once do anything but say "I didnt catch that"....
...I hope Samsung is aware of this and fixes it... lol... I returned a watch and said it was defective already hahaha.

Hi I am using a Bell Note 2 with the GG and have no problems with s-voice but I am using the Skynote RC9z 4.3 custom Rom. I am interested to know is anyone on the stock bell having the issue? If so I could flash back to stock and see what happens. Also anyone on stock having issues with the GG weather app? mine keeps telling me to set the city on the device widget but it is set. Funny thing though when I ask svoice on the watch what the weather is like it has no problem telling me.

Mine is unlocked from Rogers and am using it on Koodo. Of course I installed the Rogers rom. My weather app works fine unless I use s voice.
I've been playing with the language settings (switching between Samsung and Google) and I got s voice to work 4 whole times but not successively. Maybe someone else could mess about as well?
I'm on bell. Stock note 2. S voice isn't working.
Im Glad that this is happening to a few people, as i was thinking my watch was defective -
I ended up calling SAMSUNG about this and they had no clue of course, so i explained 'our' issue and they have opened a case -
If all you guys feel like calling in to complain about this PLEASE DO !!
The more complaints they have the faster they will action this.
Here is the case number that was opened for me for your information - CASE # 2123030231

Defiantly going to make that call - I tested out my Galaxy Gear with my Wife's S4, worked no problem, so...it sounds more like a Note 2 issues.
Okayyyy... i talked to samsung Canada support... they said that they're aware of an issue with the 4.3 update. I had already mentioned that i returned a watch already. He made it clear "there's nothing wrong with your hardware... it was an error in the update" ... He said to wait a few days and call back, they'll likely have a solution or at least more information on a coming solution.

Edit: I mean anyone else besides the two who've already stated. I tried but the rep told me there aren't any issues and so he's not sure why I'm having trouble. Seems like each call gets a different reply. Was hoping others could chime in.
Just to be clear, I called the number below and ended up talking with some guy in the Caribbean.
Call Product & Customer Support
1-800-726-7864
8:30am – 12:00am midnight (EST)
Customer support is available 7 days a week, 365 days of the year.
He looked around and couldn't find anything pertaining to my complaint.
If you guys call and they have no idea, try referring them to the CASE # 2123030231 and see what they say -
I'm planning on calling back next week even though the rep told me not to expect anything to happen for at least a month or so.

Here's a fun fact. I called Samsung Canada today and the rep said he can't find that case number. He went on to say that there are no known issues with using the GG and note 2. Really brightened my day.
Any one else have any luck?

Ok I have now flashed a Rogers and a Bell stock on my note 2 both have the same issue s-voice sounds like its underwater and says it cant understand me but if I flash the SkyNote 9z custom ROM based off the AT&T 4.3 update the watch s-voice works just fine. I tried decompiling some of the relevant APKs and JARs and it seems that there are differences in the implementation of the Bluetooth.apk but flat swapping that file crashes BT services and I am not skilled enough to figure out how to correct the issue via programming.
I am headed back to SkyNote at least till they fix this.

I might be wrong but do you think this has something to do with 4.3 rom using LE BT whereas 4.1 had BT?
I was just curious what might happen if we installed the BT apk from 4.1. Would s voice work? Or am I way off?

[q] golf gps help

Is there a way to get a GPS Golf app working on the Gear?
I have one coming and am willing to root and flash ROM and all that if its what it takes. Based on my current internet exploring, I cant seem to find a single thing on it and it is frustrating me. Anything at all will be greatly appreciated.
The rumor is that NAVI golf works on the Gear but it clearly says it doesn't support it in the playstore.
no built in gps on the gear, sorry.
Using GPS on phone?

I've never tried it, but it looks pretty cool! I hope you enjoy it, and glad I could help.
Make sure you report back with how much it improved your game!
Put null Rom on your gear. Then you can have pretty much any app you want on your gear. If you want GPS from the phone on the gear look at the xda tutorial below. I use gear location bridge.

Thank you all for your help!
My Gear is in route to my house so I will be rooting, roming and setting up GPS asap.
Should I go ahead and pair it up as if it was stock to gain partnership with my S4 before I do all this or do you think I would be fine to root/flash right out of box?
There's no reason not to root and rom right away. Pairing first won't gain anything, you'll need to re connect once the rom is installed. I'd start downloading everything you need now. Root files, wondershare, and rom files. Make sure all your ducks are in a row, and do a dry run of the procedure to familiarize yourself.
On a personal note, I like to try things stock for a day or so first. This way I have a better comparison of stock vs rom.

Gear 2 now that Android wear is out.... #failboat

So I bought a Neo and played around with it on my work Note 3. It has fair amount of apps. Well today I bought a S5 Active. I moved my Neo over to it (requires reseting it.) and got gear manager installed. Surprise to me... It seems even though things like the clock face is an app that runs on the phone if the developer doesn't select that it works with a phone you can't use it. Which should be a simple change for most things however it doesn't seem that developers update their Samsung store apps. For the S5 active there are only a handful of apps even though I am sure 99% all the apps would work if the dev would click the "it works with an s5 active"
After dealing with Samsung support (or the lack of it) I tried to get on the Samsung app store webpage. It seems they are having server errors so it was been working like crap. I was kind of able to get contacts for a couple of the app dev's to ask that they update their app to work with the S5 active. Samsung app store doesn't provide contact information unless the dev adds it. One of the devs linked to his google+ page. Which showed he is working to get the same app with improvements to work on android wear.
This got me thinking. Who is going to mess with this crappy half baked Samsung store with Google coming out with Wear? I'd guess we won't see anyone making new Apps for the tizen watches, they don't even update it to work with new phones it will run on with no changes...
I just got the Neo and I am on the fence of returning it. I figured I could get by with apps I had on the Note 3 until someone got a Wear rom for it. With the lack of apps when paired with the s5 I am not impressed at all and after my research today I am liking it less. I got it over the wear because it was only 150bucks vs 225, it has a speaker and IR blaster and Android wear is lacking in features (sure to change in 6 months to a year). I figured by the time wear got up to speed there would be a rom. Thinking about it some I am doubtful, I think the speaker and IR blaster (camera if it is a gear 2) will prevent it from ever happening. None of the wear watches have these so I'd guess there isn't low level support.
I guess I need to return it and wait for the 360 come out.
I had the same problem with my active. I modified the build prop to identify my device as a regular s5 and have all the apps again.

Galaxy Gear 1 issues with note 4

I'm quite happy with the note 4 so far and would like to keep it but I'm having issues with my Gear. I'm not sure if this is rom (currently on Null rom) related or note 4 only supports tizen, but these are my issues. I don't have these issues with my note 3.
1. When I get a text and I open it on the watch, it's supposed to clear the notification on the phone but it's not. So I still have to go the my messages on the phone and view them so the notification goes away.
2. I have my gear set up to auto unlock my phone when its near it, but it's not working. It stays locked (pattern unlock)
Anyone else with the Gear having any of these issues? If you're not can you tell me if you are using stock android rom or tizen. TIA.
interesting...I have a gear 2 neo coming, and I have a thread here as well, as so far, everyone says the Gear2 works flawlessly.
I assume the gear 1 and gear 2 use different firmware, so maybe that has something to do with it..
you might want to post this question in the "main" note 4 thread, to get more folks to look at it..
I'm also running null_23. Can confirm issue 2. I'm using hangouts for SMS. Not sure if notifications are dismissing for that, I'll let you know.

Wase4711, Gear 1 and Gear 2 are significantly different. Gear 1's have the option of running android OR tizen, whereas gear 2 folks are pretty much locked into Tizen and that's that.
thanks, I did not know that:good:
whats the real difference when running either of them, outside of apps you might be able to load on the android OS?
tomorrow will be a busy day, configuring the note 4 and the gear 2!:cyclops:

using a regular rom on the Note 1, you can install LOTS of goodies.
Gear 2 apps are significantly more limited. IMO the gear 2 looks cleaner without that ugly wart camera.

for me, the gear 2 had most of the things I would care about on it, plus, I knew getting the note 4 around the same time, my head would be exploding just getting that setup how I want it, let alone having to configure/learn how to use a Gear 2..Yeah, that "wart" of a camera on the gear 1 looked terrible..
How are you guys using null without Bluetooth tethering?
quick update; the gear 2 works fantastic with this phone..
I cant believe how clear and loud making a phone call from a watch actually is!
Plus, I get the "HD Voice" notification on the watch while calling, and its as clear as a bell!

its not so bad; even though there arent a ton of programs for it, i really just want it for notifications/calls/texts/email and the pedometer and work out stuff. All that works great so far on a stock, non rooted note 4

Ya I use mine for mostly call, text notification, unlock feature but also camera and video recording. It beats holding a phone sometimes and having a 60 second recording (only available on custom rom) is a great.

built-in permission manager?

Hi all,
So I was testing the GN5 and came across a built-in permission manager first thing. Didn't think much of it I mean yes it's a very nice feature and all but then after I had to return the phone, I looked for other references to it online but couldn't find any. It's not available on the Galaxy A8 that's for sure.
So I'm just looking for confirmation that it does indeed exist on every other GN5 out there..

He probably came across a test phone of some sort - with Android 6.0
Android definitely needs something like this...
I hate downloading apps that need random permissions for things (Like a photo editor that needs to read my SMS messages) - It creeps me out and is just weird. I'm sure some permissions are innocent and others are malicious.
This feature will definitely help Android!
fail..... of all the screenshots I took I forgot to take one of the build info. is there anywhere on google that might store that? I already checked Play store.. that only remembers my model number.
on my GN5 it was built in. I was setting it up from scratch, installing new apps etc.

Android definitely needs something like this...
I hate downloading apps that need random permissions for things (Like a photo editor that needs to read my SMS messages) - It creeps me out and is just weird. I'm sure some permissions are innocent and others are malicious.
This feature will definitely help Android!

yup I was surprised to see it. I'll see if I can clarify with my PR contact...
I've got Android M on my Nexus 6 and that was pretty buggy. Samsung would've needed a miracle to put their touchwiz on it and maintain such stability at this time so that's highly unlikely.
I am pretty sure that ROM wasn't a 6.0 test rom, but just something Samsung cooked into the Chinese (and HK) ROM... already seen it in some Chinese N9200 before... Could be something unique to said variant, or could be something that can be triggered by change of build file...
