Pebble Smart Watch SDK APPS....

Now that the backers are getting there smart watches I was thinking there should be a thread were to get apps and the sdk available to other users.
I would love to see KIK Messenger working and more clock faces to choose from.

+1 for more watch faces.
Would it be possible to create an app that used a bluetooth headset as well to enable voice control w/ Google Now?

I can't read Hebrew the font used is not unicode. Does anybody have any idea how to change it?

It is not possible to read any other alphabet other than the latin for now (I have the same problem with greek). I saw an app today made by a chinese or korean user (not sure) that pushed a translated message to the watch. Of course it used some data trafic to translate it via internet but it is a very good idea. I was wondering if there could be an app that automatically changed the greek characters to latin ones, the way they appear on a computer keyboard and then push the text/e-mail to the watch. Sadly, I have no idea of programming. If anyone knows how to do it, please do!

How's the shipping situation on these looking? Like if I order one today what's the ETA?

The kickstarter backer watches didn't arrive in germany yet.
New orders will likely take some time

Hope it will get to the Netherlands soon....

Mine is finally here. Amazing! I also have the Sony smartwatch. The Pebble is much better and easier to use. Pebble Notifier for Android is amazingly easy to use and all my wanted notification come to the watch now including Whatsapp and Chess Player.
Also loving the music remote function of the watch. Once selected it remains onscreen so changing a track can be done without looking at the watch.
I hope for the SDK more watch faces. I would like one with time, date and the current weather. I do hope that the coming apps for the watch works as the music remote app. I don't prefer a notificationcentre or something like that. The watch should remain simple.

i like this !!

Glance is nice but I prefer the Pebbler app on my android and the 91 Weather watch face. Great weather and info on the watch and seems to stay connected better than glance for me.

They sent me a free Pebble to play with. They have Plenty of Watchfaces at Pebble's Forums, you could check them out. +1 To the idea of having a thread seperate for all the Watchapps and Watchfaces.
Edit:
1- https://notesforpebble.com/ - This is a Notes App. You can Password protect all the notes. However, To save more than one note, you will need to buy it. A Nice App to Check out.
2- Google 'Keep for Pebble'. It needs a rooted Android, and it syncs All your google keep notes to your watch. An option if you don't want to pay for the one above but this one needs active bluetooth connection to view the notes while the first one does not require any bluetooth connection after installing.
And the Third and Final App(A Game Actually)- Koishiban! (Sukoban For Pebble). Check it out here (Still in Beta Stage so you will have to sugn up for testing on google+ which is free- http://forums.getpebble.com/discussion/6973/watch-app-android-beta-koishiban-sokoban-for-pebble-looking-for-beta-testers

Canvas is my favorite app, easy and powerful way to make custom watch faces. Right now my pebble displays the weather conditions & temperature with a dynamic icon as long as an animated row of missed calls, sms, & emails plus the battery percentage of my phone. oh yeah and the date&time
Canvas makes it super easy to do this.

g shock bluetooth anyone??

I really like this watch and want to get it but it says only for sgs4. So wanted to see if anyone has rooted or sideloaded the app and has gotten it to work with our note 2

Can you at least provide a link for the watch?

I think it requires bluetooth 4.0
Sent from my SGH-T889V using xda app-developers app

Right, the note 2 has 4.0 so was seeing if anyone has tried

I believe it needs the latest stack of BT4.0 + BLE (low energy) in order to work. At least that was my understanding. So we should wait for 4.3 update toward the end of the year (for N2) in order to make it happen, along with Gear compatibility.
Btw, there is a thread about it in General Accessory section of XDA: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1572175 - probably start with last pages since that topic started a year ago.

I thought bt4 was low energy anyway, is BLE and even lower energy tech?
There are a few androids with bt4 now but only the s4 is listed
My pebble doesn't seem to impact my phone battery life at all and the watch itself can go up to a week between charges.

Apparently an early "release" of BT4.0 wasn't low power. That is why there is a difference between BT4.0 and BT4.0+BLE. The protocol is different.

Isnt it 400
Too expensive

How much of the various bt protocols and versions is in the physical hw vs the software stack itself? (General question)

CASIO G-Shock with support for all phones
Hello everybody,
I'm the founder of the Android Application called "BlueWatcher". BlueWatcher is the alternative to G-Shock+ Android app to control CASIO Bluetooth watches. A lot of users missed functionality in the official app and I decided to release my own app including the functionality that users proposed me. It's evolving quickly!! Now it supports all kind of notifications (facebook, whatsapp, line... all installed apps), time synchronization, musico control...
You can visit http://www.bluewatcher.es to discover more about BlueWatcher and what BlueWatcher can do for you.
It has been tested my many users in the XDA Developers forum and now it has more than a hundred downloads (~4.70 punctuation at Play Store).
I'm here to help you ([email protected]). Feedback is welcome!
See you and hope you enjoy it!

G Shock+ app works with Note II TESTED
OK, so there's a trick involved.
I had gotten bored with the OS on the phone. So, I installed DN4. Ditto Note 4. (Search the forum for it).
And only after purchasing the G Shock GBA 400 which is the music controlling watch, had I done the research for compatibility. (Stupid me :silly
Anyway, so I was considering to buy the BlueWatcher app (Play Store) in case things don't go right.
So the watch arrived just an hour back (1 PM GMT +5:30) and I thought let's just give it a shot and Voila!!!! It worked! Everything works. The connection happens in 5 seconds. All systems and settings go.
So, here's the thing. If you are willing to let go of the boring Note II OS, then go for DN4 which is a fairly better ROM based on Touchwiz so you could use your SPen as well. And remember to install their latest build. Check their site. The team behind this is called Electron Team. They have a website too. Install the latest TWRP and load the ROM through recovery. Wipe all before use. That's how I did it, anyway.
And hey, G Shock+ and G Mix App work like charm. Hope this helps some folks, at least. I'm going to try and post this to other threads who are looking for this solution for their Note II, at least.

How dependent is gear?

Hey guys, this may be a dumb question but I'm not that familiar with smart watches. I know you currently need the GN 3 for full function but can the gear function at all without first syncing?
The reason I ask is because I want one but have a GN 2. I know eventually they will be updated to sync with gear but not sure I can wait. If I get the gear now, would I still be able to use it as a watch? I thought I saw an option to set time and date and another option to sync with phone. I also assume camera can be used independently.
I wouldn't mind getting it now if I knew the clock itself would work and wait for the update for the rest of the features. Just trying to see what I could do without syncing watch.
Sorry if this seems idiotic.

It would be a very heavy regular watch with a camera. I wouldn't do it, especially at its current price. Just wait till the watch drops price and you can afford both it and the Note 3.

It has to sync with a compatible device at least once before it will even display the time. After that it seems to keep the time on it's own but the initial syncing is what sets the time etc..

Well that sucks... Wasn't planning on getting the GN 3 and don't know when we will get the 4.3 update on GN 2. Like the looks of watch and as long as I could get the time on it, I could live with it until the update.

I read somewhere someone stating that they had loaded the gear manager software on their S4 with 4.2 and it would pair but that several features didn't work. The app is available in the Samsung store. you could give it a shot and see how it goes. If it will pair you will at least have the time. I don't recall what other features were and were not working tho, sorry.

As far as I know... Someone else with a GN 2 tried to download form the Samsung app store but was unable to do so. Not sure the 4.3 asop roms are the same/work to sync gear. Been keeping my eye on the GN 2 forms but haven't seen any post about a Rom working to sync with gear.

I was like you, I have gs3 and bought the the gear today as couldn't wait any longer! I would have been happy if I was able to use it as a watch, however it worked fine with my gs3. I downloaded Galaxy Manager from Samsung app store and it paired without any issues ... Some of things aren't working, but majority is (changing clock faces, seeing contacts, calling, answering calls, taking pictures and videos - transferring them to my phone, pedometer, etc all working great; s voice, weather app and installing any new apps from Samsung's app store arent ). Hope this was helpful, any questions please let me know.

Remote for Note camera

Anyone know of an app that lets the gear work as a remote button to take a picture with your note camera? I believe the sony smartwatch has this feature...i think this would be a nice feature, as you can be in each picture you take and decide when the shutter goes off with a simple tap on the gear screen...

I had that on my Note-2 with Sony Watch.
I don't know of anything for Note-3 and Gear. However, the Note-3 by itself does allow for voice triggering of the camera.

I know you can trigger it by voice, but how cool would it be to see your note camera lens on the gear to see what picture you're taking...and once you're in the picture just tap on the screen to take the picture...

Agreed.
You have identified what could be a great app for the Gear.
I hope developers start releasing Apps for the Gear. It is disappointing that no new apps have shown on the Gear / Samsung Apps store.

This device was released very quickly in order to beat the others to the punch. Therefore, it is not refined yet. Apple will release theirs when it is consumer ready and say they are the first. People will believe it too! Not a hater. Every company claims they have the best in the world.

(Request) Samsung Galaxy Tab PRO 8.4 Watchon App

Hi guys. This is my first time to post in XDA and I hope this will be good.
So anyway, I just purchased a new tablet from Samsung which is the Samsung Galaxy Tab Pro 8.4 for several reasons such as the Watch on App but to my surprise, no watch on app preloaded in my device. I don't know the reason may be it isn't available in my country, Philippines. But when I purchased an S4 last year it was there and it was amazing.
Already tried several APKs available here in XDA but no luck. It wasn't optimized for my Tablet. So please help me guys. Can't also access it from goggles play coz it says it isn't available in my country.
Can I request the APK specifically for this Tablet. Please. ,

Are you rooted?

I tried the program - doesn't work on Tab Pro 10.1. Installed, but not works. Perhaps the reason is the outdated version. I can offer another option - Peel Smart Remote (from my Note 10.1) - works well and with Tab Pro: Peel Smart Remote 3.3.4
EDIT: installs as usual apk

WatchON program is working in this thread - S Note, Watch ON, S5 Message,S5 FileManager, Calendar and more from S5, all the features work, but only portrait orientation

I pulled watchon from the stock 8.4 and dropped it in mediafire
http://www.mediafire.com/download/hd6u3y6wwa1g1w6/YosemiteTABxlarge_SO.apk
I'm pretty sure it needs to live in /system/apk and I did not see an odex with the same name, so it should be self-contained. If it does need to be in /system/app you'll have to root to get it there, of course.
I much prefer Color Tiger's Smart IR Remote app.
Yes, it's paid, but the range of devices it supports is breathtaking. In addition to TVs and set-top boxes, it supports my 20+ year old NAD integrated amp and the Western Digital TV Live Plus box I have in the house.

Samsung watchon is available in google play store for free. No problem selecting Philippines in the country selector screen. I have the T325 tablet.
