I installed the Edge Lighting + to get some extra lighting options.
Got my YouTube there, too. I saw something about Kindle for Samsung, but haven't downloaded it yet.
I got Sound Assistant so I can fuss with my equalizer on the fly.
I also downloaded some new Edge panel apps. I got the calculator and browser quick links.
Lastly, I set up Samsung Themes to be its own shortcut. I've downloaded a few themes, AODs, and an icon pack.
The only thing that interested me so far is the edge panel apps.
Everything else seems like "me too" apps. Havent seen any cutting edge apps that I had to have.
Samsung music is pretty decent, it gives the edge lighting while playing, really cool.
You can also get the old "s notes" app there if you aren't happy with Samsung Notes. Just go in Samsung store and search "s notes".

I have so far found the EdgeLighting+, Goodlock 2018 (with LockStar, QuickStar, Task Changer, and ClockFace modules), and the Sound Assistant.
I like that Samsung has the options to customize these little things with these little add ons.

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.

I liked how my HTC One would allow pics to be taken with my bluetooth ear piece. It was like having a remote control to the camera...pretty neat

They have this for the pebble. Why not Gear?

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.
Hey everyone:
I have been installing and uninstalling lots of apps and widgets to determine what works on the Galaxy Gear Smartwatch. I've got my Gear Null Rom'med and connected to a Galaxy Note 1 Phone. Since I am not giving up my Note 1, the Galaxy Gear looked to be my only choice thanks to the work of the NULL ROM developer. Mostly everything on the Gear works-- except notifications, weather, and third-party contact apps. I'm looking forward to the SMS developments going on in another thread. My partner also has the same phone and Gear, so I've got two mouths to feed!
Otherwise, these are the best apps for the Gear 1 that I have found so far. I am learning some new stuff too, so there may be a part two in the near future.
Please comment, looking forward to your feedback, and I salute all of the developers who are continuing to hack the Gear device. Thanks guys!

great list - i use voice translate as well on mine and another one that's a big help when travelling is Word Lens - lets you translate signs by using the camera snd brst of all it does so without the need to tether (caveat - cost $4.99)

Great to see another Torontonian using the same watch/phone combo that I am! What a fantastic and informative video as well...I can't wait to get home and try out that remote media controller as I have my note automatically connect to a decent set of Bluetooth speakers when I walk in the door. It'll be really cool to control the music from anywhere in the house..
I noticed that you are using a stock touchwizz ROM on your note. What version of gear manager are you using and with what degree of effectiveness? I am using an AOKP kitkat ROM on my note that I absolutely love and don't think I could tear myself from but I may just nandroid and try stock if you tell me that there is greater functionality..
Great video! Nicely edited and covers a lot of mysterious capabilities n features that aren't immediately obvious to beginners-including myself. Nicely done!
PS: Love Google Goggles and Price Rythem for instant product information, nutritional facts, reviews, current pricing! Either scan the bar code or take a picture of the item, and your done!
Runner up would be Pie Controls to quicky access your favorite apps. from your watch face.

Hey fellow Torontonian! Does the KitKat ROM on your Note 1 allow you to keep the S Pen features?
I can only get to Gear Manager 1.2 and basically none of the notifications work-- the Gear Manager is only able to open the Contact app on the phone. The Gear's camera app does transfer photos to the phone automatically. Nothing else works in Gear Manager. I can't give up S Note on the phone, so it hasn't been rooted since Samsung released a JB update a year ago. I wish that SMS and email notifications could work but--- but there's not really any other smartwatch that will work with the Note 1 so I accept these compromises.
Samsung seeds many Galaxy Gifts through the Galaxy Apps Application. How many people are actually using this feature preloaded on their Samsung devices?

I have looked through the gifts to see if anything interests me. I like the Kindle deal. I enjoy getting a free ebook once a month even if it's a small selection. I'm not complaining though, free is free. I'm already enjoying the device.
never used it until I got my gear 2 watch .... now I have several apps installed via galaxy store
I disabled it in the very first day together with other bloatware, but also had to re enable and use it to download the Gear Manager app... Just for that till now.
kindle deal and some other spen and montblanc stuff is awesome.
Im getting app updates for pre installed Samsung apps. Also i used it to some download additinal apps which were not pre installed, like those camera modes
There is some galaxy apps
I must have missed them before I debloated. ..
Skickat från min SM-N910F via Tapatalk
I've downloaded a few new camera modes as well as Hamcom Office from Samsung through their app store.
Used it for:
1. MontBlanc content download
2. Updating S note
3. Downloading optical reader app - converts images to editable text..not like the photo note. by that i mean perfectly editable text
ps: I see no further use of galaxy apps
Why is there no zoom functionality available in Samsung Notes anymore? Anybody else notice it? It was very helpful for me to add images of writings & notes in S-note and zoom in to get a better view of the written content. I can no longer do that
No Zoom in functionality available in Samsung Notes.
There is a magnify function with the s-pen, you can select a part of the screen to magnify/zoom

Thanks, I did not think of that.
I wish they won't remove the zoom feature though. It was amazing to zoom in on text and now with higher resolution it would have been a pleasant surprise. Kinda bummed out.

i do not know if this helps, but you could download the latest s note and use it like normal. The action memo also works great too
Having the same issue with the Samsung Notes app - looks like they rolled out a new version of the app that isn't in the Play Store for the Note 8. Note 8 is version 2.0.00.83, and the one in the Play Store is 1.5.00-56 - pinch zoom works fine on the older version which I haveon my Tab A w/ S-pen.
Magnify tool works well for reading notes, but I'm used to zooming in before writing so I can fit more on one page.

I have the exact same issue. I am all about updates as long as features aren't reduced. Sadly, that's the case with Samsung Notes. You can no longer zoom in to fit more in one page.
Also they removed the Multi clip feature in Note 4 where you could have as many as 10 screen clippings in one sitting and then add them to where ever you wanted. That feature was removed in Note 5. No wonder people call most of Samsung features gimmicks since they don't have the nuts to be confident in their own intuitive features whereas Apple stands by their ****ty features arrogantly even if they're completely useless. I've had all the notes so far and am now on Note 8 and am wondering why Samsung does this ****.
