Sorry if this has been asked before, but I've searched and haven't been able to find anything current. Everything is from months ago. I recently bought an M9 and have yet to activate it because I just can't give up my Gear Neo. Does anyone know where I find info on getting Gear Manager to work on my M9? If it's possible. Thanks in advance
Any resolution?
IT is really hard to get it working on a non samsung phone and impossible to get it on a phone that has 5.x Sorry, I know this because I spent a couple hours setting it up on my droid turbo on 4.4 and I got it to kinda work, then I updated it to 5.1 and nothing worked anymore. When that happened I found out that you can put wear on the neo. It has a few glitches, but i like it WAY more than stock, you can do so much more on wear. http://forum.xda-developers.com/gear-2/development/please-help-kernel-compiling-android-t2992953

So I know the Sband is suppose to be released in the next 20 years which will work with our S4 for those of us that want to remain fit and utilize the Samsung Health assistant, but what do you think of the chances that the Galaxy Gear is going to do exactly this?
I am not trying to start a rumor thread, but I am kind of curious of how this new device will possibly interact with my tablet and /or phone. Has anyone heard anything about this device? I mean for me I am looking forward for something that will replace my fitbit during a good workout.

It's hard to know for sure until the device/specs are officially released but I would be surprised if it didn't work with the latest released devices. Now I could see it possibly being a 4.3 device, meaning until we get 4.3 on our phones/tablets then it might not work.
I'm interested in it as well and looking very forward to the release as I am with the 4.3 update to our phones.
Have they come out with the long lasting battery and back yet? Battery life seems ok rooted... I'm sure it'll be junk in 6 months. I just hope extended battery isn't brick-sized.
I can tell that the inductive charger does seem to change the way it charges. I know that my partner at work has the official one and he is telling me that his battery doesn't discharge as fast as when he charges it through the wall. He refuses to charge it from the wall and now will only do the inductive charging or from a USB off the computer
I have my galaxy tab s 10.5 WiFi since 3 days ago and stereo not work, no sound from the left speaker. I try with stereo test app from play store and videos from YouTube but not work. Is broken?

My first Galaxy Tab-S 10.5 had the exact same problem, but I hadn't rooted it so I was able to exchange it. How long ago did you purchase it? If it's within 2 weeks you can probably take it back to where you bought it and get a new one they wont check for root. If it's older you need to send it to Samsung and they will deny the warranty if the Knox counter is at 1. I'm on my 5th one now so I'm afraid to root it until my warranty is over and by then I probably wont be able to because I think Sammy is trying to stop it. the last update already people are saying root doesn't work.
This is the first and last mobile device I'll buy from Samsung. Reasons:
1/ Knox warranty voiding
2/ bloatware. Yeah you can turn off some stuff. But you need root to get rid of some system stuff and every time the tab freezes you wonder if you froze something you should not have. It's a pain.
3/ they do not release their sources in a timely manner. Some sources are not released at all. This makes life hard for devs, and less attractive for them to work on. In turn it means fewer choices and longer wait time for us users.
4/ The main source for downloading stock Rom is a dodgy site that wants you to buy membership for storage locker? Seriously? We're talking about a company with revenues in the top 15 globally.
5/ specs look great on paper, but even after debloating this thing within an inch of its life, some stuff still lag. I don't get it.
Previously I had a nook hd+. The nook is an el cheapo device that was abandoned by its maker, but it has had official CM 4.4.4 build way back I don't know when. At least six months, I know that. And a bunch of unofficial builds with different nifty features. Working smooth and rock stable.
Not that we don't have good, hard working devs here, but it feels like they're swimming against the current. One dev for lollipop rom just quit and is selling his tab.
Man I hope somebody comes out with a big tablet with OLED soon.
Hi y'all, I've just bought an used Galaxy S5 from AT&T (unlocked by IMEI) and while the phone is on pristine condition (like, OMG it looks brand new) I'm having problems with it. You see, this is my second S5, the first one was from Verizon and it had 4.4.4. but this new one has 4.4.2. and I've noticed a bit of worse performance and some small differences here and there but so far the worse thing on it has been the inability to found updates (and f***** phone let me only look for updates every 24h) and I want a little bit of help with that since I don't know if the fact of being in Mexico makes the updating impossible or if at&t's s5 update in on hold or if I need PC software to update the phone. I don't know how to root the phone but I could/would do it if the benefits are worth it.
The other problem is kinda weird but it happens often: the phone restarts itself while on my pocket. I think it might be a problem with the place where the battery is, being kinda loose or something and my question is, is it safe to use black tape to hold the battery on its position?
Thanks in advance, hope someone is able to help me out a little.
Also, I've heard that the current official android 5.0 for the Galaxy s5 is a bit of a mess, is that true?
I know it's been months since anything new on the gg1. Had it last working with my S4. Now that I've upped to the G4 it's harder. Charging port isn't transmitting data. Stuck on tizen right now. Is there any way to get the Samsung app store on my g4 and push apps to it?? Seems like my only option now.
I was at Best Buy today, and I was about to buy a Gear VR Consumer Edition. The phone for the display model was broken, but the sales associate said I could use my phone to try it out, so after downloading the app and other files (thankfully I have T-MOBILE unlimited LTE ) I began my first Gear VR experience. About 10 minutes into using it I got the message that the Gear VR was getting to hot, and that it needed to cool down to function properly. This message appeared 3 more times over the next 10-15 minutes. What I would like to know from those of you who own a Gear VR Consumer Edition does this happen to you as well? Even though $99 is very reasonable I don't want to buy a VR if this is a issue that Samsung knows about, and will eventually fix on later editions. I Googled Gear VR overheating, and I came up with a YouTube video of a guy that installed a fan on his VR.
Please be honest with your replies, because if this is a known issue Samsung should be forced to be responsible and take care of it and others should be warned. However; if this is just a case of one out of many having a problem (especially since the one I was using has probably seen much more use than a hundred would ) I want to get one.
I got a message once only when trying sideloaded content (software in heavy development ). Other than that one time, no overheating problems here.
I am using it a lot, sometimes for few hours. Got message only once and I just ignored it.
The problem was most likely that you were using the gear vr while it was busy downloading a sh** load of stuff in the background. Your best bet is to have a fully charged phone, all apps and updates downloaded, and then go for your life. Also, put into flight mode (if your app don't need internet), and lower screen brightness.
I have had the overheating issue since day one. It happens when doing anything that is cpu demanding. I, like the guy in the youtube video you mentioned, rigged up an old laptop fan to help cool my phone. Problem solved 100%.
The gear vr overheating is a common problem that samsung is fully aware off. I suggest either waiting until they put a fan in it from the factory or just installing one yourself. Its very easy to do
I have had the overheating message several times. I id some research and there is a clip on available on Amazon :

This might sound a step back but I got a long charging cable for my headset & powered it with that rather than my S7's battery & suddenly hardly any freezing & the phone gets nowhere near as hot & I haven't seen the 'needs to cool down' message since.
