Get whatsapp in gear 2 - Samsung Gear 2 Neo

We all wish there was a way to answer the whatsapp from our gear 2, either by voice messages, some t9 (old-style) keyboard, text to speech ... or endless options Google technology Current presents. But the problem is that as I read whatsapp creators themselves have to give permission (if I remember correctly), or do themselves make this possible. So it occurs to me to do a bit of pressure and show that we are no longer enough and that this market of the wereables with tizen .... especially when they have brought the Gear s new one.

Let me ask you, when your gear 2 screen is off and you get a message, does you gear turn its screen on to notify you that you received a whatsapp message?

Unfortunately, not with Tizen.
I flashed Android wear on to my gear 2 Neo via a method i found here on XDA
Now, I can read and reply to Whatsapps.
I would much rather be able to use the original software that came with the watch though, as some features dont work in Wear on the neo

[APP] Gear Getter - based off Pebble Notifier - v1.2 <No More Development>

UPDATED - v1.2 removes the double messages from some apps, fixes another bug.
I wanted a way to get other notifications to the Gear without having to run another client app on the Gear.
There is another project (ATN) that initially used the Email notification to do this. I liked this approach because it was simple, used the gear manager as the delivery mechanism, and the Email notification app on the gear which is robust enough to handle long notifications.
I reached out to Dattas Moonchaser, who wrote the popular Pebble Notifier to see if I could use his app as my base. He obliged so here it is....
Install this on your phone, there is nothing to install on the Gear. The only thing you need to know is to go into Accessibility settings and give Gear Getter permissions (it has a big RED link for this when you launch the app). Also make sure you have Email notification checked in the Gear Manager.
Here are some better instructions - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=47449016&postcount=119
Once you enable Accessibility you are able to setup your apps you want to receive notifications from. Couple cool things..
- There is the ability to setup filters
- Ability to setup quiet times
- There is tasker integration (I haven't messed with this)
- This reads the data from the expanded view so you should get pretty robust notifcations
- Easy on the battery
If you feel the need to donate, please do it from the app, and it will go to Dattas who would appreciate it.

Quick question..
I did not install anything yet but I wanted to understand this. Do we install on both the gear and the phone ?
Where does it pull information from ?
I never used the app before, I just wanted some more info before I experiment with it.
And does it require 4.3 ?
Thanks
Can you read the notifications from the gear with this ?.

You only install it on the phone, there is nothing to install on the gear. It uses the built in Email notification on the gear to display the notifications.
You tell it which apps you want to receive notifications from on your gear.
This doesn't require 4.3, but the Gear Manager does (which this uses).

This send notifications from your phone (for the applications you select) to the gear, using the Email notification on the gear to display them.
Thanks, checking it out. I want to see if I can get Instagram notifications. I will report back.
So far so good! Gmail is sending full subject and body of emails! However, when you click "Show On Device" it launches the stock email client instead of gmail. It sounds like that's because it uses the email notification methods.

Great! The logic for getting the notification details is pretty battle tested so I would expect the content it sends to the gear to be pretty good and mostly match what you would see in an expanded notification on your phone.
The Show On Device I don't think I will get to be able to actually work to open the app on the phone....
Tried twice to install apk and it crashes my Note 3, it reboots on it's own and the apk is not installed .
Strange it doesn't do anything at my end.. I do not get any notifications. Could possibly show a short video of how it works??? Do I need to select the Email in Gear Manager .. Cause I aint getting any Noti's....

Under FilterList in the settings it states Pebble. FYI.
Ok, this does not work for me. Although it is probably because I running an S4 on 4.2 so far. Waiting for the update to be online.
I'll have to wait for the update to get me to 4.3 for the gear manager to work properly. I have limited functionality still
UPDATE : Well, email does not work, only get recipients name showing, but on the other hand, texting works (using sms pro)
But everything displays double, I mean I see the text and who is from and then under s separator I see it again with just a bit smaller fonts. Don't know why, maybe a setting I need to play with ?
I am glad at least for the texts for now.
Ok strange , after i boot into stock rom and then back to rom slot i installed .

LOL thanks, must have missed that one... It will work for the Gear even though it says Pebble.
I would like to point out that using this method if you use the stock browser it will talk to you and to the best of my knowledge there is no way to stop it.
Also last I knew if you were on a note 2 it will also talk when opening and closing folders and when switching home screens

Crazy! I use Chrome so didn't notice but you are right. More research shows its a bug with Samsung. I'll switch over to the 4.3 method using the security setting in the next few days. Until then I suggest using Chrome.

Has the Gear made your life easier or more complicated?

I imagine the best thing about owning a gear is keeping your phone in your pocket on silent and only bringing it out when you want to reply. Also, answering phone calls while driving and music control when your phone is docked to the speakers.
I've played around with my friend's pebble and its annoying that notifications aren't synced with your phone. You have to view them once on your watch and them dismiss them again on your phone.

there is no difference with the gear. You have to dismiss notifications on the gear (which can be a bit annoying as you have to go through each app's notifications and dismiss), and they won't be dismissed on the phone, you have to dismiss it on the phone as well.
Supposedly the gear does clear the phone emails and mark them as read if you use the native email app. I use Gmail and do have to clear the phone again after reading in the gear. Also the gear doesn't show the entire email. It shows most of it, then says to see the rest on the phone...

I thought that was the whole point of smart relay?
gear made my life easier, but only because of custom ROM. i'm still using null 11.1 where everything is working for me, so i don't see a need to make an update and spend another hour configuring everything, i'm not a number whore..
stock gear is a devils device, terrible to use with zero configuration.

yeah, of course if you load an email app on the watch and have internet to the watch, then marking an email as read on the watch will mark it as read on the server, and mark it as read on any device, including your phone. but using the built in gear notifications, it won't do this.

no. smart delay is just to open up the app on your phone. So if you're looking at an SMS notification on your watch and you pick up your phone, Gear Manager will open up the SMS app on your phone for you. This in turn will clear the notification, but only as a side effect.

i never used smart relay, but i guess it will work, because wake-up gesture works on mine.
why is it better? because it is. i can use internet, have a custom layout for my apps (no more swiping across 7 pages to get to the voice memos or any other app). if i want to do something on my watch, i can do it within 3 seconds, literally.
i can start a direct dial to a predefined person.
i can record 60 seconds videos with custom rom.
i can secretly record both video and audio without time limit while keeping screen off (saves battery life).
i can set a countdown timer, or a stopwatch.
i can read ebooks.
i can sync my google keep notes
i can sync my grocery list
i can browse 9gag on my wrist
i can use calculator!
i can check and answer to my emails (by using gmail and google keyboard)
i can use google translate service (with both text and audio input)
i can check my bank account
i can use hangouts IM
i can play some simple games
i can have full calendar agenda
i can use full google maps
.. and way more.
now, what can you do with stock rom?
you can answer calls.
you can take 15 secs max videos.
you can reply to texts using s voice.
you can download stock apps available in samsung store (not a single one is worth your time)
you can pair it only with other samsung phones.
for me the answer is clear. if i can't put null on it, it goes back to store as a terrible smartwatch. it's capable of way more things than samsung officialy let you use..

Wow! I never thought about using it that way, impressive indeed especially direct call and text. While on null rom u can still receive SMS and call notifications like how you would on stock gear Rom right? Or does it replicate how a real phone does it?

i can receive sms and call notifications and also notifications from other apps (you choose what you want displayed).
there is no easy way to reply to texts though, there is a tabletsms but it doesn't work so fluently.
you do not loose any functionality when running custom rom. you just gain more.
Since we're not allowed to use our cell phones at work, I'm able to covertly use the internet with this thing.

Go to gear manager on phone click on notification, scroll down to bottom and clean on more notifications, scroll down the now extended apps list and whattsapp is at the bottom... Tick the box next to it and your done. Of course you will only get the notification on the gear when phone screen is off, works really well.

[APP][UPDATE 9.10.2014] Sprocket - Watch Faces, SMS/MMS,File Transfer, Remote Install

I bought a gear recently and was sad to see a lack of apps tailored specifically for it so I made one of my own!
Sprocket
Features:
Native SMS/MMS functionality.
View/Send SMS conversations
View MMS
File Transfer
Send a file from the phone and it will automatically be saved in Internal Storage in the GalaxySMS directory and opened on the Gear from the default handling app
.
Remote Application Install
Allows you to install apps on the gear that are installed on your phone.
*Note does not work for paid apps it seems. At least on my Moto X.
Installation
Install the apk on both the phone and the gear and you will be good to go. The application will be automatically run on startup, but needs to be started initially once first installed on both the phone and gear.
Its a good idea to have bluetooth already turned on when initially starting the app.
Install on Phone first, select device
Install on gear next, select device
Support
This app was written specifically on my Moto X so there may or may not be issues with other phones. Please send me a logcat and I'll see what I can do.
Update 7.29.2014
East2West said:
Hello everyone!
I've been working many hours on this release and have made several improvements.
ChangeLog
Better App Stability
System runs in the foreground now so it is less likely to be killed
Improved Connection Speeds
Increased buffer size to allow faster transfers
New Notifications For Texts
This is the one I'm most excited about. I took some inspiration from the new Android Wear Watches to create custom notifications for our beloved gear.
Installation
Install the update on both the Gear and the Phone. If you already have sprocket installed on your gear you can update it with the new version v1.1 attached to the first post using Remote Install. To enable notifications click "Enable SMS Notifications" on the Phone version and follow the prompts.
Right now the app supports all notifications for SMS, but if you would like to preview notifications across the entire device you may download a developer key available on the play store. It will unlock all other notifications (including ongoing and button control!) from the device and will help continue development from my end to give you new features to make our device more useful. A preview of these notifications below:
Install Developer Key*
*The developer key only needs to be installed on the phone

You're talking about when you send from the Gear App it will also show on your phone? If so, it works for me. Shows up on my phone what I have sent through the Gear.

Interesting! So if you send a sms to yourself from the gear it will be displayed twice on your phone (one as send and one as received)? Might I ask which sms you use?

Really cool app, looking forward to next release. I can see and interact with the sms on the gear, but I can't seem to send files from my Note 3. It's also paired with the galaxy gear manager, does that need to be off? Thanks again.

EDIT: I was wrong above, it did transfer the files, I just didn't see them at first. I also installed some apps via Sprocket. Now that I have Google voice function working offline, the SMS function is really nice. I can practically hold a SMS conversation quickly on my watch. I just need to make the little voice button on the keyboard bigger...lol. But once you hit it, the Voice Icon is much bigger and easy to continue the replies. For such a small program, it really is very capable.
Updates
Like I indicated in my earlier post. "I love this app." It's the only app I've found that allow SMS replies without the hassle. "It feels good swiping a reply from my watch." Since I've had it here are the bugs.
1. When I send a text from my phone my watch vibrates.
2. Occasionally looses Bluetooth connection. (will not connect to server must restart phone/watch)
3. About a 3-5 sec delay to start the app
Also I"m using Note 3. Otherwise this app is the BOMB! It doesn't use much battery. Resolve the bugs and this will be me a must have app for the Gear.

I agree! I think people overlook Sprocket...It's really basic, but the few things it does are HUGE. It's the best for replying to SMS, I even shut off the Gear Manager notificatiion for SMS. And it's just too easy to install an app or transfer a file. I think this is my favorite app for the Gear. Thanks and look forward to your work.

Does Galaxy Gear receive whatsapp notifications?

I recently received a Galaxy Gear as a gift. After updating it (Android not Tizen), I receive my whatsapp notifications (After configuring Gear Manager) but I can't read the message. I only see the person who sent it and for more details I need to use my phone. Is it solved in the custom rom null 23, tizen or whatever? Is it possible to see the full messages in the Galaxy Gear 2 based on Tizen?
I don't know what to do because I can change this one to Gear 2 until Monday.
Thanks in advance

You need to give a little more information, like what kind of phone you have and which version of Android is running on it.
Or do you use an iPhone ?
I have a Galaxy S5 with Lollipop and my Gear 1 (with Null_23) shows whatsapp messages perfectly. So the whole message.
Also for emails (Gmail and corporate email from Airwatch) and Facebook as well.
But read the forum here, as I think all your questions have been answered multiple times already.
Receiving whatsapp messages is easy. Sending them from the gear requires a little work

Yes i did use when i was on KK but now on lollipop not all functions work.. I am aware of Tasker on the Gear too but now took android off and went to tizen so i might be handicapped when it comes to what i can do.. I suppose i may have to just put up with normal messaging using fleksy messenger from Gear.
I appreciate your reply anyway
Alas I know nothing about tizen..... that'd be your biggest handicap. I think I'll stay kit Kat for a while longer.....
