Hello, as I wrote on title, I can't go on with wear os tutorial. I'm going to explain my situation. I sent the watch to Asus for a warranty repair and when it comes back, it was on the stock wear os 2.0. I updated all apps through play store after setting up the watch and a wear os update was available (it was even before sending it to Asus and I used the update with no problems). A notification shows saying I should tap to update the clock. I did it and after the reboot, if I finish the Wear OS tutorial the clock seems working, but if I try to open the app wheel, it closes showing me again the tutorial. I tried to factory reset 3 or 4 times, but with no luck. What should I do?

@TheSura
#1: Uninstall the Wear OS app from your phone.
#2: Start all over again and do a system reset, the watch will tell you to
go to the plays store and install the Wear OS app using your phone when
your watch prompts you to do so and continue the setup on your watch.
Good luck, have a great day!

I was bored yesterday and wanted to see if there were any updates, to my surprise there was a update for the gear manager. I installed it last night and apart from the updating process totally bugging out and freezing my phone needing a battery pull to fix....after the restart it installed fine.
I am now getting much better battery life out of the gear...it's at 99% after 3 hours off charger and moderate use. And that's with a watch styler face! So definitely worth doing this upgrade. Also...I would highly recommend uninstalling watch styler prior to the update. Then 're download a new one from the store.
I hope that I see some differences in power management.. So far what was the main issue for me is EXACTLY the same-
1. no change in contacts => they are still listed BY THE FIRST NAME - for me useless as I have a lot of contacts (In CONTACTS - GEAR Watch displays contact names listed by first name – even if they are listed on the NOTE3 by last name - this is true bug)
2. Still no way to see "contacts" and "favorite contacts" => You can only see one OR the other - I need BOTH!
Please list here things You would like to get - maybe SAMSUNG guys are reading this forum... for me:
- predefined SMS answers for the incoming calls
- battery level on the main screen (can be done through watch styler)
- ability to display temperature, atmospheric pressure, humidity… (all of those sensors are in NOTE3... but maybe some of them on the watch as well?)
- seconds on the main screen
- calculator
- compass
when going to the Samsung store it prompts to install on device.
On device it does nothing when trying to update. Anyone else getting this same issue?

I just installed on phone, then had to re pair and restore to the gear.
If your having issues, uninstall gear manager and 're install

Well that worked and fixed alot of the problems i've been seeing (Contact sync, Call history, etc)
I think i lost my root though. It did a reset of the gear. I probably could have stopped it but before i realized what i did...it was too late.
I just lost root as well, it tried to restore but got to 94% then error.

I've found that un-installing Gear Manager and resetting the Gear is the most reliable way to do the update.

Anyway I can get an apk of this somewhere? Still waiting for them to update my Mega to 4.3 and so far haven't gotten my brick watch to work properly on the older gear manager apps.
Can someone please upload the newest update. It would be greatly appreciated

I'm seeing v1.2.131013 (23 Oct) (This is the regular Samsung app store (search for Gear) not the gear app store (LOL so confusing)
The install hung on me at 3 of 19 but rebooted my phone and it installed fine over the other version when it came back up,

Interesting. They must've updated the app version number, but not the store version number. I just checked my app (the apk I posted before) and it is actually the 131013 version!

V1.5.121601 issue
so I woke up this morning all happy about the latest Gear Manager update and the fact that going into notifications and selecting more notifications showed the texting app I use Textra. Selected it and tested and sure enough it worked just fine, now that part happened on the 26th. Back to this morning (27th) and there is another update version 1.5.121601 and without asking me the little beastie proceeded to update. We all know the routine after the update, comes the restore question I answered 'yes' finished. Went into gear manager (yes the watch did install) and selected Notification > More Notifications, and that where the program froze. after about 2min it came up with an informational prompt "Gear Manager isn't responding. Do you wish to close it?" elections were Wait and OK. choosing Wait gets a 2min wait time and then the same message, OK closes out the program and then restarts it.
I have,
set everything back to factory resulting in same result
reset the watch and the note 3 resulting in same result
uninstalled/reinstalled Gear Manager same result
any ideas or is there a way to roll-back to the previous version
thanks for reading :fingers-crossed:
I really don't like the 7.0 version of Google Maps, so much so that I rooted my phone (HTC One) to install the 6.x version. I use the Navigation app all the time in my car. My problem is that no matter what I do, it keeps getting updated to the 7.x version every few days. I have it detached from the Market with TiBackup Pro, and turned off all Market updates for all apps on the phone. It doesn't matter, in a couple of days I'll jump into my car, hit the Navigation button from the Car menu screen and get "welcome to 7.0!". I can restore it from my backup in about 5 minutes, but who want to do that everytime I get in the car. Any ideas?

Playstore>settings>do not auto update, that's it.
Why did you go into so much trouble. I find 7.0 a major improvement. Anyways, just uncheck the auto update for Maps in the three dot menu

What can I say, but I (and lots of other) have a different opinion. But anyway, I don't see any auto update available. And it has been detached using TiBackup.

when you go in the playstore and you click inside of the Maps application,
if you hit the menu button next to the share button, make sure the "Auto update" box is also unchecked,
not just the one in play store settings. That's how I got my snapchat to stop updating.
Hope that helps!

Nope, when I do that, it goes to the same setttings page as the store, which is already set to 'do not update', nothing specifically for that application. I"m running 4.3, maybe that's different.

I had this issue with another app. The solution was to re-sign the app so that the Play store didn't recognize it. Check out this link and let us know if it works for you:

Hi XDA, I'm new to the gear and new to the forum. I just followed a guide on how to sideload apps using ADB. I am able to successfully install these apps, but am not able to see them on the list of apps on my phone or on my Gear when they are paired. If I disconnect the gear from my phone and reset the gear, I'm able to see these apps. Does anybody have any idea?
I also installed NOVA and then changed the default of the home button to always be touchwiz (since I want my Gear to be more like a watch and not a mini tablet), but have no way to go to Nova unless I disconnect and reset my Gear. Any ideas or help? Thanks.
I've noticed this too. My gut feeling is that its going into gear manager on my phone that does it as that only lists the conventionally installed apps rather than the side loaded ones.

I'm having the exact same issue.
If I reboot my watch with bluetooth off, my sideloaded apps show up with no issues. The second I enable bluetooth and my watch and phone connect, the apps get hidden. Are there any solutions to this problem?
Hi,
Has anyone tried the Pebble with any of Amazon's Fire devices? I've got the Fire Phone which I'd like to use the Pebble with?
- I know it requires Android 4.0+ (which the Fire Phone has)
- I have been able to sideload the Pebble app and it seems to work fine
I'd like to know if anyone has actually tried it and if it works ok?
Cheers!

Just saw this post. I have the fire phone, and the pebble works perfectly. I downloaded the app by side-loading the play store. I couldn't find an updated version of the app to just downloaded so i went the play store route.
Oh, fantastic, thank you
I haven't got one yet, but will be getting one soon. Do you have the normal pebble or the pebble steel? And which would you recommend?
Do you run the latest version of the app where it pushes through all notifications rather than select ones?
Thanks again
I have a pebble steel and a fire phone with 3.6.8 on it.
I also side loaded Google Play Store and then installed the Pebble app(v2.0.17.2) from there.
My experience is that it works, but not perfectly. The part of the app that displays what is currently loaded in the 8 slots of the watch constantly goes blank, showing nothing, as if it was not connected. When they are displayed they do not always allow you to remove, add, or modify the settings for the different watch faces or apps.
The notifications do not work as well as they did on an old HTC Sensation I installed Kitkat on. But that is most likely because Android 4.2.2, what FireOS 3.6.8 is based from, does not natively support apps accessing notifications.
On email delivered via exchange it only says you have a new email, no information on the email. It does work fine for Gmail notifications, the Gmail app is also installed from Google Play Store. It does properly notify about calls and messages too. The third party Notification Center app seems to crash constantly, so I stopped using it. Nav Me seems to work fine.
I'm hoping when/if Amazon releases an update the notification issues will be resolved.
Aw that's a shame. I did read somewhere that pebble steel has some issues compared to original pebble.. I might hold off on getting one to see if it's better supported with fire os 4 then.
Thank you for your very detailed response!

Do you have the original pebble or the pebble steel? - I've read about some issues with the steel as the other person here also mentions.
Found that the best option is to downgrade pebbles firmware to SDK 1.0, which is a lot more stable with Android 4.2.2
To downgrade pebble, follow these steps:
THIS WILL DO A FACTORY RESET OF YOUR PEBBLE
1 - Uninstall the Pebble app on the Fire Phone
2 - Put the pebble in recovery mode, by pressing "back"+"up"+"select", hold these buttons until you see "Loading..." in the pebble screen
3 - Install the pebble app with SDK 1.0 Donwload from here:
https://mega.co.nz/#!p510TBrB!tZslTHjnUZd7cdmqrSBtZIi19ruXtGDCgzY2kZDZJLo
4 - For pebble faces compatible with SDK 1.0, go to www.mypebblefaces.com and filter "SDK 1.0"
5 - Enjoy stable notifications on your pebble with the Amazon Fire Phone
Hope this helps =)

Does GT08 smart watch works on fire phone ???
As far as I know, I'm running the latest software on my Pixel 7 Pro (Galaxy Wear app) and on my watch Galaxy Watch 5 Pro. I install it from the Playstore in a browser to install to my watch but in the download section of my watch face options, they never show. This is a recent issue so I uninstalled everything and reset my watch, still the same. I can select the watch face using my watch but it never shows in the wearable app. What gives?
Same here. Some kind of bug, the dial after purchase / download is in the watch, but is not displayed in Galaxy Wear !!!!
Noticed this as well, needs a fix in next update....
I also have this problem.
Yesterday I wrote to support about the problem, today everything has been fixed. Now everything works as before...
