I have moved on to the HTC One M8, I don't own a galaxy phone anymore, and have sold my gear. I won't be keeping this thread updated anymore, but please refer to Brendo's thread (link below) which he appears to be maintaining. Cheers. ps, i really miss the gear, but am just sick of samsung phones for the moment. can't wait for the moto 360!
Brendo's gear manager thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2573200
Hi All,
Here's some versions of the Gear manager APK I have managed to collect. Hopefully the historical versions might be useful to some, and the current version useful to people wanting to run Gear manager on a non Samsung/Touchwiz phone/ROM.
Latest version, 16th March 2014
1.7.031004 - poor watch battery life? I would stick with 1.6.132701 right now.
Historical versions
1.6.132701
1.6.131003
1.6.111801
1.5.123002
1.5.121601 - this version was a bit buggy
1.5.120903
1.2.131013
If you have other versions feel free to send me a link and I'll host.
For those running non-TouchWiz phones, you might be able to get the Samsung Apps app working by having a look HERE.
HTH.
Changelog
As usual with Samsung, we don't often get real changelogs, but occasionally people work it out or Samsung's PR team let it slip.
2.0.14031004
Watch manager that comes with the Galaxy S5
1.7.031004
Unsure, but I have gotten pretty bad watch battery life with this version. I went back to 1.6.132702 and battery mostly went back to normal.
?? initially I thought this would be for 1.6.111801, but I installed it and it doesn't feature these updates. So possibly this is a future changelog of an unreleased version
Improved pedometer accuracy
Add setting menu “Motions”
Change motion menu for wake up gesture
When connecting to device again (example: after powering on), send notification of all unread messages
Changed to send notification only for new message
Fix to add popup message for BT connection without GM in setup wizard
Implemented standalone alarm
Add additional PIN lock
Changed and improved notifications menu
Implemented more notifications
Gear shows the messages of the notification of quick panel displayed on the phone
1.6.132702
First official 1.6.x release.
1.6.131003
Optimised for KitKat phone ROMs
1.6.111801
Fixed GMail notification repeats
Applies new functionality when used with ML1 firmware (eg native alarm)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2573200
cool, you need to advertise that better, maybe put some search terms or something? Make it obvious that older versions are there too.. i searched a lot when i first got my gear (for Christmas), and i didn't come across your thread
Mods, feel free to delete this thread.
I don't think that we should delete this thread. I think that we should take all the apk's for gear manager and put them in this thread for reference and keep this thread going because it is very clean. thank you Mods and thank you Omni wolf

yep neither. I guess the changelog that the Samsung rep posted in that facebook post was for a different version. Maybe it's what we have to look forward to?
Keep getting parsing error when trying to install the latest two versions. Any ideas?
Just checked-U.S.east coast-1.6 not showing
Updated through posted apk-see no difference-cnn still has no connection, weather and voice assist still in whatever language that is-no idea why these can't get straightened out-wish they would just open up app store already
As many of you may know by now, Google rolled out the ability to play 1080p YouTube on 1080p Android devices. However, most Nexus 5s, and countless other 1080p phones don't have this functionality. It's seemingly random, but it isn't. Why, you ask?
Because ONLY Android versions 4.4.2 and L get this luxury. How do I know this? Well, I've tested this on almost half a dozen different Android phones.
Enabling 1080p (and 480p) playback in YouTube is frustratingly simple, and WORKS ON ALL 1080P ANDROID DEVICES WITH YOUTUBE v5.7+!!
So let's get into it! FYI, you need ROOT for this tweak:
First,
------ALWAYS BACKUP YOUR BUILD.PROP BEFORE EDITING IT-----
I'm not responsible if anything goes wrong on your phone. This is dead simple though, and if you create a backup there should be no problems
1: Open your build.prop file, and find this line:
"ro.build.version.release=x.x.x"
(With "x.x.x" being your current Android version number)
2: Then, replace that "x.x.x" with "4.4.2". The line should look exactly like this, (without quotes of course):
"ro.build.version.release=4.4.2"
3: Save, then reboot your phone.
4: Open up YouTube, play a 1080p video, and select 1080p from the resolution menu.
5: Profit
Note that this will make Settings and all other apps think you're on 4.4.2. However, your phone will still be on whatever version you started with (this isn't just gonna magically upgrade your OS XD). In order to revert back to stock (you must temporarily revert back to install OTAs), restore your build.prop backup or simply change "x.x.x" back to what it was before.
--If this helped you please leave a Like and share it with your friends! If you do mention it somewhere, please give me/this thread credit --
EDIT: So far, I've only posted this on here and the OnePlus forums (under the same username).
UPDATE: According to a couple people on the forums, Google has fixed the issue on their side so that you can see 1080p regardless of your Android version. Unfortunately, my only device now (the LG G3) is still on 4.4.2 so I can't test it. Also, I'll leave this guide up in case anyone still has issues

When I had the Developer Preview on my Nexus, 1080p was an option by default, so I couldn't say. There's no reason why it shouldn't work, though

So this also explains why updating to 4.4.3 on the M8 removes the 1080p option. Stupid Google!

Very nice catch
Just to clarify, this is a Google issue? Reason I ask is that would explain why the G3 is beginning to get the 1440p option due to the screen but why haven't Google enabled their own phone? It makes no sense...
I get 1080p without messing with it lol.

4.4.4 isn't on the M8 yet (they say they've rolled the security updates into 4.4.3 but hmmmm) but on my Nexus 5 running 100% stock 4.4.4 I only get 720p (I don't root my phones any more so although this information is good it doesn't help me!)

I tested 4.4.4, 4.4.3, 4.4.2, and 4.4 on the M8 GPE, Z Ultra GPE, and Nexus 5 (L also on the Nexus 5 also). 4.4.2 and L are the only two to receive 1080p/480p YouTube.

Lol weird i wonder why not for 4.4.3/4 so if you want to use it without changing build.prop then you need an modded youtube app right? Nice thread btw i didnt knew about it since i was still using on kitkat the old youtube v4 app. Another thing to do when i have time is looking into the youtube app and maybe find some hidden stuff
I tried this on Mahdi ROM. It just makes the 1080p option show up in the settings, but I cannot switch to it.

This is a glitch on some ROMs (from my understanding you tap it but the bubble doesn't fill in?), but in my experience it does in fact play 1080p, just not fill in the selection in settings. It may be very difficult to notice the shift in resolution, but I'd try pausing on some text and changing it around. If it actually doesn't change, then I'm guessing it's a problem with the ROM (or even theme for CyanogenMod in some cases).

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..

Should've noted that down... but it pops up by itself either before or after download. Didn't need to set anything before hand. Will see if I can dig up the rom info too... it was a test unit for HK

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.

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...

is anyone willing to give it a try and use some root required apps to verify it works?

hey, thanks for trying, i just got my tablet today,...suprisingly, native hotspot works without any limitations or extra apps (i still have UDP), but i would like root so i can enable all apps to be multiwindow! i use in the car with waze for navigation split screened with my podcast/media player app. waze isn't enabled for multiwindow, and neither are some of my other apps i use on a daily basis. overall though, i am impressed with the tablet, except the frame is plastic-y, wish it had some kind of metal frame instead but still nice. "upgrading" from note pro 12.2 verizon, but i think i'll still hold on to it because i have it working the way i want, bought this new one specifically for phantom 4, until i get comfortable using it as my daily tablet.
thanks again for trying the srsroot app. guess we're still **** out of luck rooting.
i think there is an app out there that EDITS/MODIFIES an apk to enable multiwindow mode, but doesnt work with all apps, and some apps that depend on certain services or accounts and verifying don't work properly, rooting was the only easy way to enable multiwindow for everything for me.
Hello,
What differences are there between MIUI EU and MIUI stock?
Less bloatware (is it really that bad? )
It's nice to have google stuff built in, but it's fairly easy to install anyway.
What else?
I'm wondering if it's really worth the trouble to switch to MIUI EU, if I can root the stock ROM anyway.
All of the reviews say the Mix is quite snappy, I'm wondering if all the lags/etc are caused by the MIUI EU rom?
Not sure if you read my posts on here complaining about the lags or not. But it sounded like you might have lol.
I was on EU ROM for about 3 days, and the user experience wasn't all that great at all. Snappy is the last word I would use to describe my experience with it. I'm switching to China Dev ROM, and I will see how well it runs on the Mi Mix comparing to EU ROM. Do note at the EU ROM is in very early stage, weekly build for Mi Mix has been suspended for 2 consecutive weeks. I'm sure EU ROM has a lot to bring in the near future. As of right now, I think I'm sticking to the stock ROM.

I had the same issue as well.
It feels buggy. I didn't face any lags when I was on the Chinese rom, but the eu rom seems to have some issues at the moment.
I had multiple freezes as well as slow downs.
---------- Post added at 08:39 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:15 PM ----------
Also, When I received my phone, the seller installed multi-language rom. It's not the eu rom.
I think they just enabled other languages on the Chinese rom, and It worked great.
Reverted to the twrp backup and its much smoother.
I'm the opposite of you guys. EU dev Rom was better for me than the China stable Rom. On CN, Play Store download lagged, time was not always correct due to locale always reverting back to China even though I set to a different country and had to turn off Auto Time Zone. I had issues downloading and being unable to set wallpapers and lock screen. The only way I could change it is by changing the themes.
But with EU dev, I didn't have any of those issues.
I would consider reflashing the EU dev to see if it helps or not but up to you.

Same here, had play store already on too. Everything worked great, left localization to China as nothing else seemed better and language was already English. The built in weather app didn't work but no biggy. What got me though, was being a Google Voice user I could set it to make all calls with GB - if I did calls would start with the dialer coming up but then immediately closing. Only worked for calls with GV set to not make any calls. Had to let it go.for this reason but if euro ROM doesn't have this GV making calls issue (can anyone try and advise) I would get another.

I was going to stick w/the Global MIUI,as I'm not having performance issues (Phone/Messaging/G-Mail/Data/WI-FI all excellent).
I wouldn't even mind the Xiaomi/MIUI Bloat if I could disable most of it,namely the built-in CleanMaster malware.
The memory management seems a bit aggressive as well,regarding recent apps,regardless of app/system settings.
Can the Xiaomi/MIUI/CleanMasterbloat be disabled on the stock/unrooted (?) EU ROM,or,is TWRP/ROOT (SD Maid/TI-Bu) the only solution?
I was able to disable the memory manager and clean up stuff, also some utility that seems to make you confirm permissions for apps over and over. Mine was China ROM with multi-language support added.

Which utility are you talking about? The one that ask for NFC permissions? I'm looking how to disable that.
One thing to add regarding EU rom is that BT is working properly now as before with CN rom, BT would take so many attempts just to connect. Now with EU, it connects automatically instead of me continuously trying to get it to connect. One thing I do miss is having wifi calling but I'll get over it.
I wasn't able to disable system apps until I installed https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.namelessrom.devicecontrol&hl=en
I found that app after googling it, http://www.ghacks.net/2016/04/11/remove-system-apps-from-xiaomi-devices/
Yeah, perhaps - if memory serves it was always asking for NFC permissions bit I think it did so with others.

I found it weird but didn't think nothing of it until recently. Been trying to figure out how to disable the NFC permissions on apps and I looked at apps permissions to see if i can turn it off but only saw: Contacts, Location, Phone and Storage.
Sorry, can't recall specifically but I think if you go in through their cleaner utility you can turn it off there.

Definitely gonna open a Xiaomi account here in a few minutes,gonna have to unlock/root/install the EU ROM,the memory management has seemingly went from bad to worse,turning off Google Play Music repeatedly,only keeping 3 apps in recents & having to manually connect my Gear S2 on every boot.
The latter two I can tolerate,especially the Gear S2,as it stays connected once I force/manually do so within the Gear Manager app.
But,the constant interruption of Google Play Music is not cool.
Seems MIUI is the mess I've been reading about for years,some of it is nice but,that Clean Master garbage keeps opening up stuff I don't want (Browser) & closing the things I actually use.
The settings seem redundant as for memory management/permissions: too many cooks in the kitchen.

Yeah its a mess, I had to go in there and manually set everything, I did set apps not to suspend like Play Music and others though. The best part of MIUI is its constant updates if you're into using MIUI, if you're into using stock. Hopefully, there will be devs creating ROM's for this phone soon.
I'm really liking this phone and I'll grow use to MIUI but I do miss the SPEN and TW calendar app though, lol.

I got unlock code in about a day and a half. Pretty painless.

My unlock code came two days later but my devices was already unlocked from the retailer i bought it from. Stupid me didn't check if it was unlocked or not beforehand.

Yours may have been the one post I saw regarding looking for the unlock on verdor-installed Global ROM & which prompted me to check,mine was unlocked as well.
