Help

Need some help.... call me new but..

I was running 07 version. Downloaded the 08 and decided this time around to wipe first. But I never did this before, so i hit restore, let it do it's thing and wiped.

Asked me to reconnect to the phone (like first time) but somehow I couldn't. Didn't attempt a new connection..(call me an idiot maybe) but rather went ahead and downloaded the new 08 version.

Which didn't really work. Got a screen saying "can't play video" and the name of the gear with the number (serial)appearing I guess like when asking the initial connection.

Tried restoring but getting same screen.

If I use the latest Stock rom from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2463743

can I flash again and install this in it ?

I am in the process of downloading the rom. How would I install in in the phone ? Using ODIN ?

Sorry for the newbie screw up but I'd appreciate some help getting out of this...

Thanks in advance

PS. Still on S4 4.2 version if it makes a difference, not running the latest gear manager since it wouldn't work with my phone version yet
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] acheney1990:
Ok, totally stupid question, I know it was covered before but I can't find it in the thread...how to I configure it so that when the screen is turned on from raising my arm...it opens to the home page and not the all pages folder page thing. I did it before but can't figure it out this time around. Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] fOmey:
Try reading the OP? Also dont worry about "cant play video", some stupid bug just pair your gear as your normally would.

Go into novalauncher settings and disable the home button gesture, in the future search this has been covered SOOOO many times.
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] adoublearonn:
Does anyone have issues with their screen flashing or glitching when moving through the settings or apps like root explorer? If you have no idea what I am talking about, I could make a video...

Edit: OK I swear I searched for "flicker" in the thread before I posted this and nothing came up. Then I see all these people talking about it right before me... arrrggg I am that guy today!
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] fOmey:
Just restart your gear after a few minutes..
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] adoublearonn:
Gotcha... just noticed this in the OP. I also noticed it on stock back in the day when I tried to set up PIE controls through GravityBox to get a menu button. Was hoping my Gear wasn't "special."

Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] uluvali:
LOL. Very funny, Mate! :o
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] fOmey:
LOL, no seriously.. you should be able to pair up with your speakers..
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] jbarresi19:
Yeah I can't find the archive icon...so if I happen not to look at my watch fast enough how do I see old texts? Do others have "archive"? Can I get it back
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] fOmey:
Samsung removed it I believe, its gone. RIP.

EDIT: No, they just renamed it to notifications and removed the launcher shortcut, just make a shortcut on your desktop to notifications.
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] jbarresi19:
I don't see a notification icon anywhere on the watch....do I have to enable it somewhere?
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] Elgreco333:
+1
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] Skizzy034:
Ok so how do we do a full wipe lol?
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] jbarresi19:
The funny thing is that is see it in titanium backup but it's not it app drawer or on gear manager

Does anyone have the notification icon....is there an app I can reinstall or do something through TB to get it showing
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] fOmey:
Read what I wrote again.. They removed the launcher shortcut, you need to make a shortcut using novalauncher.

You search the thread. Your like the 100th person to ask this very question. Congratulations.
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] cvondra:
Hey fOmey do you use exchange services at all? Was curious if you were aware of a method to remove the security on the Gear to be able to view message contents. The one thread on it everyone seems to be at a loss. I've looked at the methods being used where the exchange account is messed with as well but that was on the device where the exchange connection was initiated from, ie. phone. Just curious if you had any thoughts.
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] fOmey:
Dont be, easy to miss ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] fOmey:
I dont actually.. what is it your trying to do ?
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] jbarresi19:
Sorry bout that f0mey I made that shortcut like u said...I love this rom man....I get paid tonight and will be donating tomorrow...well deserved
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] cvondra:
When you have an exchange account (say with your company) and you have that account on your phone, mail comes in, notification sent to gear, but gear tells you that due to security you cannot view the contents of the email that you must view it on your phone. Kinda defeats the purpose of the notification other than to bug the **** out of you when you have an email.
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] bdovpro:
anyone get offline language packs installed? I dont even get the option in the google voice search settings and trying to download them through google translate crashes the app.

thanks for unlocking the epicness of the galaxy gear f0mey! ill buy you a beer as soon as those a**holes at paypal unlock my account/card
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] Elgreco333:
Could you please let me know how you did that ? Looking for this right now...

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] fOmey:
Can try: this.

If that doesn't work, it would involve editing the gear manager.
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] KaiTo_SH:
Download

Hi fOmey by chance there is another link to download the rom?

We here in Brazil we are failing to download it is showing error all the time ..

thanks ..
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] americo85:
Guys is this ROM compatible with the latest version of Gear Manager?so I can fully receive all the notifications.
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] fOmey:
Yes.
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] americo85:
Great . . A beer on the way.
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] KaiTo_SH:
fOmey

do not understand why not answer my questions, I apologize if I did something ...

I can not write in English so sorry i use google translator once again apologize for anything.
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] Elgreco333:
Sorry guys, it's getting late here and I am getting sleepy, so I am missing something, but how will I make a shortcut to see the archived messages....?

What do I look for as an app since it's not there anymore ?
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] PRTEQ:
adb side loading

I have change to the newest and so far it looks super. Thanks for the hard work. But I cant install the apk's with the adb, it keep saying "error, device not found-waiting for device" any suggestion on what I need to do to make it work?

thanks in advance.
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] cvondra:
Did you enable USB Debug?
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] PRTEQ:
I cant find it. Is no longer under "Gear info" setting
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] lukasz:
Usb debug

go into "settings -> gear info -> about gear", tap software version 10 times.
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] fOmey:
Dude, hold your finger down on the homescreen, choose shortcut and choose notifications. Simple.
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] PRTEQ:
Thank you!!!!
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] MrTonyToca:
Ok, I brought my concern on Null 7, and with Null 8 the issue is the same. I am on a stock rooted Sprint Note 3. I active bluetooth tethering on the phone. I go to the full settings on the watch and tick the internet access button and it stays checked. On 4g/3g i try to gain internet access on the watch, and its a NO GO. But if my phone is connected to my WIFI THEN the internet access goes to the watch, but other than my phone being connected to a wifi signal, the bluetooth tethering does not work on the watch. it activates and everything but does not ever obtain the internet access unless my phone is connected to WIFI. On Null 6 4g/3g worked phone with the tethering. Im not sure what the problem Im having is, but I've tried various ways and only having the wifi works which defeats the purpose cuz I would normally use the feature while I am not at home. any suggestions?:confused:
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] Elgreco333:
Yea..did that, but notifications does not exist on my shortcuts...I am not on 4.3 nor latest manager still...

Got it anyway after an hour or so...had to go into activities. Have not used nova much like other...

Thanks for the reply anyway.

Good work.
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] fOmey:
Obviously your provider is blocking tethering. Use a third party app.

No problem, Ill look into it..

I thank you both, your to kind !
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] richie_mp:
try this adb version... make sure you have usb debugging enabled on gear and have the samsung usb drivers (recent) installed.

regards

richie

p.s. this version also works for those with a problem "device offline".
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] appelflap:
Thanks f0mey. Great update!
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] fOmey:
Glad you like it, Im loving it so far. All that's left is tasker integration and this device will be perfect.

Did someone say tasker ? Brendo ?

Bluetooth tether for att note 3

Ok. Please any veterans let me know if my method was in any way a no-no but i am noob a did what i thought would work for others too. here is a solution. I was having same problem with bluetooth tethering in versions after Null_06. i have att note 3. This is a rough version of what i did.

1. install null_06

2. used wondershare to pull pdanet tablet version apk

3. install null_08

4. reinstalled pdanet tablet version

5. pdanet on phone then connect gear as in Null_06

bluetooth tether working like it was in null_06 with all the new updates.

Thankyou fOmey for making my gear more than i ever hoped for!
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] doeboy7177:
Can you upload null 06 please I deleted it I have mobile note 3 without Bluetooth tethering using dearth stalker unless anyone has a better solution
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] appelflap:
For me what would made this thing totally perfect is to find out a way to mock a Wifi connection. Lot of apps that work with equipment on a local Wifi network first check if wifi is on or working. If not they fail. I would love to use Chromecast with my watch or using my Harmony Smart Remote.

I didn't mess around with it yet. But would it be possible to set a flag somewhere in the Android settings so that apps know that Wifi is on and working? Somehow this flag must make the function isConnected() true in

ConnectivityManager connManager = (ConnectivityManager) getSystemService(CONNECTIVITY_SERVICE);
NetworkInfo mWifi = connManager.getNetworkInfo(ConnectivityManager.TYPE_WIFI);

if (mWifi.isConnected()) {

Have to check the AOSP how this function is implemented. I expect that it just reads out a simple parameter in a settings file.

But then again, could be way more complex to get these kind of apps working :p
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] fOmey:
LOL, dude the post right above yours.

Watchstyler

Just an amazing rom..

The only thing i cant get to work proper is watchstyler.. it always says "create a theme" ad the time

does anyone have an idea

the rest is amazing
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] fOmey:
Set your theme in the gear manager and restart your gear.
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] powder02:
Absolutely love the work you have done and this couldn't be any simpler. For some reason my watch doesn't have the Internet Access tab in the Bluetooth settings even though it is enabled on my phone. I am using a T-Mobile Note 3 Romed could this be the reason why?

[Samsung Galaxy Gear] fOmey:
Thank you so much !
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] dv8nathan:
I assume this is the same app that fOmey included for bluetooth teathering. For U.S. carries blocking bluetooth tethering. Install this on gear.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/...utm_medium=organic&utm_term=pdanet.for+tablet

I use foxfi for at&t but i presume this pdanet free version should work just as well. Insall this on phone.

[Samsung Galaxy Gear] ComputerPimp:
Google Account

Is it possible to have the ability to add a Google account added to the rom? I can install Google Voice Search and it works! But Google Now needs an account. I tried installing GAPPS and got stuck in a a boot loop and had to re-flash.
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] tintifax66:
Only one question (i have read the thread, but I am not sure): I have to root separately my gear before I do your instructions ? Or will my gear be automatically rooted when i follow your steps ?

Gesendet von meinem SM-N9005 mit Tapatalk
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] fOmey:
Automatically rooted.

Not at this stage, all it does is force close.
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] jonnybruce:
Brilliant fOmey thanks! - really appreciate all your work

Problem - I updated to the new gear manager and now I can't connect and get the message attached.

Any ideas
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] stevan588:
Awesome Rom F0mey! It's working very well since I installed a few hours ago the null_08 Rom and the Gear now looks more usable in all it's features and everything looks ok. I don't know if only depends on my Gear but I have noticed a high consumption of the Gear battery. After installing the null_08 and charged full battery power, after only 6-7 hours the power is dropped dramatically to 5% even if I used very few the watch! I enabled Internet access and MTP on Gear but mostly of the time I was not at home so I was not connected to the internet but only connected to my Galaxy S4 (4.3) through the Bluetooth tethering. Has anyone else experienced the same quick drain of Gear battery after flashing null_08 Rom?
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] firasusman:
Thanks for lovely ROM.

this is another stage level of developing..

I have only one question and only one suggestion if you take it to your consideration to make this ROM perfect.

The question is

When i enter the recovery mode i have no wipe option.

I read all pages back.

I found that entering recovery mode only meaning is fully wipe itself.

Correct me or guide me if Iam wrong.

Secondly is one suggestion.

Please include any root Explorer like es or any other one in your ROM to git away totally from wonder share or adb..

Coz you already have MTP.

Thanx and waiting for answer.

Samsung must contact you to have a proposal offer for you.

LOL.
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] ajwconsult:
Thanks for the quick rom update. It seems that the issue from the previous rom is still there..

On Gear: When you display the dial pad, dial a number.. screen goes off, when you press the power button, screen goes on then off again immediately. Thus not been able to end call or press another key to navigate through an automated number menu choice option.

Did follow install procedure.. Did full wipe on gear as well.

Look forward to null_09.

AJW
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] richlum:
I flashed and then rebooted into recovery and I still don't have the Notification option when adding a shortcut (see attached)

Also, I don't have SuperSU in my apps anymore (it was there in null07).

I tried reflashing the ROM with Odin, but still the same.

Any ideas on what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks,

Rich

Select notifications activity.

Please dev am still waiting for answer

Thanx.
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] lfaitas:
Excellent Rom!

Latest update has lots of screen corruption. .

Screen also goes off very often..

Didnt do that on previous version!

What changed?

Can you fix it?

Thanks for everything!!
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] fOmey:
Pull GearStub.apk from a rom for your device.

No fixing that sadly. Everyone has that issue, its because the home button has been rebound to power only.. otherwise you cant lock the device while using nova launcher. Im thinking of a work around for this..

If you boot into "recovery" it full wipes your gear.
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] Skizzy034:
Wow um I didn't know you could search from the XDA app. If I was on the web site I would have.

#ProudToBe100

Btw, I just did the search and there are no posts that say how to full wipe just that we should full wipe. My question was how do we do a full wipe.
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] lfaitas:
Screen flickering is getting worse even after waiting for a few minutes.

Will a full wipe help?

Didn't do one from null 07 to 08
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] Skizzy034:
I wasn't on this rom but I had screen flickering before. It was the PIE Control that was causing it. When I removed it it went away. Does this rom have that?
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] lfaitas:
When I restart phone I get: "process. Android. Process. Acore has stopped" error
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] fOmey:
Fair enough:

Need a logcat to figure out whats causing that.
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] parcou:
Power button...

Hey fam I have searched and I see that in Nova that I can set the "on screen" home button I read so if I tap it twice it can open a gesture that I like. What I cannot find in my searching is there any controls over the "Power" button. Is there any way to may it an action this I do not see in Nova... I was attempting to see if I could set it when pressed it returns me back to the Nova default tab..?
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] Elgreco333:
Don't think so in Nova. This rom has it by default set to home because it was causing issues otherwise..
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] Skizzy034:
I didn't see those. They didn't come up when I searched. I know what you mean though. I've done that before. I didn't know that was the full wipe though. It looks like it does the same thing as selecting reset from the Gear itself or the Gear Manager. Thank you for responding. Looking forward to flashing this today.

Clocks

Fam...

I am very happy with Null8 and to be different from other...the Nova bar on the bottom is a nice look compared to OEM. Where I am not too happy are clocks. Since I have free Nova version I cannot do full screen clock and I liked the TW with the gold arms and lines came with the Gear...

Can I get some help on clocks...widgets, images, anything that I can do to add more twist over the digital clock...digital not bad if it had a different twist to it but if someone saw my Gear I want them to know it's been changed and Nova shows part of that...

Any help on clocks pls?

Thx
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] lfaitas:
I agree with you, also any way to activate Nova launcher pro? i have the paid version on my note 3 but i dont know how to activate it from my gear...
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] triplerider:
Screen Jitter

fOmey - Once again you astound me. I was away from my computer last night when you released Null-08 and got home way too late to update my Gear. I slept like a kid at Christmas in anticipation. It is everything I thought it would be and more (home, back, and recent buttons). More beer coming your way soon.

I noticed a new app (udn lite), I'm not sure if you included that or if it is part of the new firmware from Samsung. Either way, I was getting a lot of screen jitter even after a couple of hours, mostly in "full" settings. I opened udn lite to explore and realized this is what gives the home, back, and recent buttons. I tried turning it off just to see if it had anything to do with the jitter. Now I don't have any jitter at all. Seems this could be what is causing it.

Thoughts???

installing either into your system/app folder caused a lot of crashing for me so I just installed them normally through moborobo.
