[Q] How Do You Enable Greyed Out Options? - Samsung Galaxy Gear

Quick questions on Galaxy Gear running s.w. version v700xxubna6??
When in the gallery on the watch there is a option that states SHARE but it is greyed out,, how do you turn that on? I have all the photos to auto transfer to my Note 3 but I noticed that there is a photo on it that has the icon that states the photo transferred to my phone but it did not. So I am looking to enable the share function to transfer the file.
Also on the watch I have notices that the device visibility turns off after 2 min and I end up having to shut the Bluetooth off and then back on which is a issue trying to transfer a file via Bluetooth because then it states that it cant connect to send the file via Bluetooth.
I also have the Sprocket app installed and can seem to do a remote app install or send a file that way.
Also for the Gear is there a way to have it auto detect when you connect it to a PC?

Anyone??

[Q] How to connect the Note to a Mac?

Ive been searching for a way to just connect the Note to a Mac via USB to have access to the camera and file system to grab some movies but can't find any solutions. I enable mass storage under settings but the Mac ignores it. Any ideas?
Hello,
i don't have any issue on my side, although i use different mac.
Have you tried to use "system_profiler SPUSBDataType" in the Terminal app ? It gives you information on linked usb devices of your mac. Does your phone appear ? What appear in the system profiler ?
Also, you can access your phone files from your mac over wifi, using Kies (installed by default on the Note) or airdroid (which i prefer personally).

Plug into your Mac. If unknown network notification appears on your Mac cancel network connection. Tap on USB connect in the notification bar on the Note and say yes when it asks if you wish to USB connect. Your external and internal SB cards will appear on the Mac as no name folders.
Alternatively you can download Kies here: http://www.samsung.com/uk/support/usefulsoftware/KIES/JSP
To use Kies after downloading and installing, turn USB settings, plug into the Mac and tap Kies connection when prompted in the notification bar.

Unified Remote on Gear - anyone succeeded?

Hi,
Has anyone been able to connect via Unified Remote either via BT tethering or direct BT-PC connection?
I would like to control some of my PC from my watch. Is that possible?
I'm on old version of Null and I can't get it to connect, but perhaps newer version solved it?
the only tiny little connection im aware of is the app called "bluetooth file transfer" and you can send files through BT, and it takes foreevvvver too... hope that helps.

Z1 Throw via WiFi problem.

Hi guys,
I have a some problems with Throw function in my Z1. Firstly I want to sorry for my poor english. I wish you can understand me.
I have a PC and VAIO laptop, and Throw via WiFi doesnt work. If I enable Bluetooth it works correctly, but you know, range of BT is terrible, so I want stream music via WiFi.
If I use PC Companion, wireless connect work perfectly, I can copy files, and update my phone, but when I use Throw, and select PC or laptop via WiFi it loading for while and finally nothing happens. Even sound timer always display "00:00". When I click Play button, it's again the same - loading and nothing.
In Windows Media Player I turn on Stream->Allow remote devices to control my computer , and in further options "Allow all" in sharing streams.
I fight with that since 3 hours, and I give up... Anyone any idea ?

I have no idea what you're trying to do but :
Throw means throwing informations with your phone not sharing or taking control of another media.
With my Z1 i can throw music or photos to my TV for exemple (that simply sends and plays the music on my TV).
What do you want to do exactly?

I want to be able to throw music to my laptop or desktop while all three devices *Z1 Laptop Desktop* are connected to same wifi network.
Also what is the best cheapest way to connect my phone screen to my non-smart TV? I do not opt from ChromeCast
Hey there, guys.
I'm facing this problem too. For some reason "Throw" stopped working or works when it wants.
Long story short, i have .757 NUT's, Rooted, LB and Xposed installed with not else than Super User Mod.
When i try to use Throw, i can't find my Samsung Smart TV (In the past it was able to); funny thing is that i cant use Throw for watch videos on my PC using XBMC, but XBMC can access to my content vía uPnP and can reproduce the videos, phoos, etc. I use skifta which does "the same" than Throw and it works perfecly, it can find my TV and can reproduce the videos, but i can't understand why my naive APP which use DLNA wont work.
Any fix or workaround?

Wifi notifications not working

I have an Active 2, Wifi version SM-R820 paired with a Huawei P40 pro. Remote connection in Galaxy Wearable is on and the samsung account is logged in.
But if connected to wifi only, as standalone, there are no notifications.
With BT everything is working almost fine, because sometimes I found the watch disconnected from BT, I have to open the Galaxy Wearable app and after it connects automatically.
Any ideas?
Problem solved.
I have to unckeck "manage automatically" from Settings - Battery - App launch the apps:
Galaxy wearable, Samsung accessory service, Galaxy active 2 plugin, Samsung Health.
I have a Galaxy watch 3 SM-R840 and when I connect it to wifi I can't download or update anything, I reset it to zero and it remains the same, any ideas please

What do you mean by "download or update anything"?
In remote connection mode you can only receive notifications and use the Find watch and phone functions.

That's the way it's been designed, I think. WiFi on the watch is only meant to connect to your phone "remotely", when Bluetooth connection fails. In the remote connection mode you only can receive notifications and use some basic stuff like Find my watch etc. Open your Galaxy Wearable app on your phone when the watch is connected through WiFi and you'll see most functionality is greyed out.
Solved, I tried it with another wifi network and it works perfect, thanks !!!!!

Carlinkit CPC200-CCPA

Hi I wonder if anyone else is using this wireless dongle for AA and CP for Android HU only. I also wonder if there is a modified Autokit apk which would allow to us to use non-official apps like Fermata player etc.... Alos 6 tap restriction would also be nice to be removed.
I have carlinkit ccpa-cpc200 wireless AA/CP dongle for Android HUs. I have one issue with it. Using Android Auto (no matter, if wired or wireless), the only way to make automatic dark mode to work is to set it up manually during which time it should change (i.e.: one has to set sun set and sunrise times manually and adjust them), and this also only works if after a wake-up (hotboot) of the radio the Autokit apk is killed and restarted. If it is not forced stoped and restarted then automatic dark mode will not work even if you have configured under manually under the settings as written above. So what i did is wrote a Macrodorid "script" to kill the app when screen is turned on. Then once usb connection is established it restarts the Autokit app. This method also doubles the time which it would normally take to connect and start the wireless Android Auto. I wonder if someone else has faced this or similar issues.
Sorry for resurrecting an old thread. Anyone able to load the new coolwalk UI? I was able to load it by plugging it straight to the car's usb port but connecting to autokit still triggers the old split screen UI.

Hi I did you install autokit APK on the Android headunit? If you have factory radio with AA then this dongle is not for you. You will need to buy other type of dongle to make your factory AA wireless

Is it possible to get the script? TIA.
hi, well its possible to share of course, but i dont know if it will help you because its very specific to my Headunit set-up.
The part which anyone can use fom it, in order to get the dark mode to work (if you set the day time and night time manually in the autokit apk) is very easy. Just put a trigger in macrodroid: screen unlock, and then put an action kill app and choose Autokit apk. It will only work if you have root rights on the headunit.
