[Samsung Galaxy Gear] forshaw:
ive been running NA6 Nordic

so easy to install null rom 23

first run the SU inserter

copy null.zip rom to watch

install twrp in odin

boot into recovery

install zip

easy as 1 2 3

returned to stock because I just wanted to check what null was all about

stock is better for what I want

thank you

keep up the good work

ok here goes a more details install version

things you need

1 null rom

2 TWRP kernel

3 odin

4 confidence

5 galaxy gear v700 watch

6 usb cable

7 smart watch cradle

1st thing I did was cheak my gear rom,i was running NA6, I think this is the latest for my region (Nordic)

2nd Install mobileGo Wondershare to your PC

3rd copy the Null rom you want to install onto your watch via wondershare,,I copyed mine to the SDcard portion of the watch

4 open ODIN ,I used 3.0.9

5 insert trwp kernel into the AP or PDA bit on ODIN

6 go into download mode (press power and keep finger on power and don't release until it says galaxy gear rebooting,once it says rebooting ,let go and very fast press the power button 8 time or until it leaves the rebooting screen and loads up the bootloader ,download mode

press power button once until the menu changes to download

keep finger on power for 5 seconds and then you will goto into download mode

back to ODIN , press start

it will flash quite fast because its just the kernel getting flashed

ok after the bootup ,press power button and go into rebooting mode again

,at the download,recovery menu, press until on the menu you get to recovery

press power for 5 seconds on recovery, and it will boot into the recovery mode

in the recorvery menu touch the install zip

scroll to null.zip or what ever your null rom is called

and touch it

swipe across to install

then read everything that happens on the watch, there will be things you can install extra or choose to leave out

good luck

aw nm. i cant even factory reset. it fails :(. looks like ill have to flash the mk7 again

---------- Post added at 02:25 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:40 AM ----------

do i need to add super su before adding twrp again?

---------- Post added at 02:37 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:25 AM ----------

ok so here's my problem. i have/had a few. First, I was getting twrp only in the top part of my screen. I flashed the mk7 and then twrp again, and now it appears just as normal. next, I tried to install null rom and i keep getting a fail on the factory reset. i tried just flashing the rom and that also fails. i tried reinstalling permission and checking the settings but nothings work. any advice on what i could do?
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] samsmith5:
1. I would put it into super su if you have the option.

2. I installed the Null Rom after TRWP and was not really into the battery drain and the wifi and browser apps weren't working for me. I'm sure if I took the time, they would have worked, but I don't have time right now. So I just went back to the original rom.

3. I used these instructions to restore my watch How to root your gear.

4. NOTE! It gets rid of the TRWP recovery. You'd have to install that again if you need to, but at least it gets your gear to working order.
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] dutchman1993:
I was thinking about this that you make some new feautures like bootscreen startup, and maybe animated themes if you scroll with gear from left to right , you maybe know what i mean.

About your null_project rom everything is working perfect! And i am very happy with it :)! , i only just need one thing to know to till witch version i can upgrade gear manager without that my app's gonna dissapear , im using now 1.5.123002

how to install super user

Hello all. I recently purchased the gear watch a week ago and I tried this root method here>http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=46398598&postcount=1 everything went as the op stated. I'm wondering how do I get super user on the gear watch? Figured it out.....
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] barberboy420:
managed to get root goin. I tried to install [MENTION=283679]null[/MENTION]23 recovery but it wouldn't stick so I read more and seen where I had to run the adb commands. Only thing is I have a Crap o matic lartop and don't have space to set up adb. Is there a workaround?
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] barberboy420:
I'm in need of assistance. I tried to flash recovery as stated by the op. Once I went into odin to flash I immediately went to boot into recovery to find recovery hadn't stuck, so, I went to the adb method only to find the recovery img had been deleted so I went to the Sammobile website to dl the latest firmware (it was from a cpl months ago) I installed it and when i try to re root my device impact tells me device not found but im sure im connected because adb recognizes my device if I put in adb reboot. I'm wondering if its because I updated my firmware :confused:

[Samsung Galaxy Gear] adaimespechip:
Hi folks,

I've attempted to flash .tar.md5 to the AP as mentioned and it seems to progress until 'NAND WRITE START' but odin just sits there and it does not proceed at all.

The Gear sits on Downloading... with a progress bar. The gear was upgraded to tizen a few weeks ago from android. Does that make a difference??
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] Aksuli83:
I have the same. Think its just because it's already running Tizen so you can't downgrade it or flash the recovery. Luckily you aren't totally ****ed with it being "bricked" after ur situation. Still can flash [ V700XXUCNE9_V700OXACNE9_HOME.tar ] to fix the device. But can't seem to downgrade to [ V700XXUAMK7_V700OXAAMK7_HOME.tar.md5 ] for being able to flash recovery and then from there flash the Null_ rom.

If anyone has a fix on this it would be much preciated :)
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] RockRatt:
Unless things have changed with newer Tizen versions locking it down? there is a method others have used on the Gear 1 to downgrade (UPGRADE IMHO) from Tizen and BACK to Android. Then being able to install Null ROM. Here is the link http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2776157

I haven't tried it myself, but if you read the post others have been able to do it.
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] Aksuli83:
Might give it a try.. Tho I'm probably going to sell my old Galaxy S4 and the Gear as a combo, and get a Sony Smartwatch to replace Gear.. Atleast if I can't get Gear back to older version and into Null, then it's definitely going :D

[Samsung Galaxy Gear] DorkyDev:
How do I do this? I've never ADB'ed anything before, I've got ADB installed...
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] jocarog:
You flash this thru Odin, those adb commands are the ones you have to use to make twrp to stick, but you have to do it before flashing twrp to make it easy... You have to make sure that adb sees your watch

adb devices

Should give you a serial number and "device" if it says "offline" you probably don't have developer options and debug mode enabled... Or the right driver...
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] DorkyDev:
My ADB says something about android emulation or emulator, I have Bluestacks Android emulator, guess I'll have to try it from a different pc.
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] DorkyDev:
Heh!! IDK What I'm doing wrong, however it never asked to grant this PC Access, I think cause I already allowed it access once before IDK and no su popup, maybe cause I'm rooted with iROOT via the PC and and so instead of SuperUser I have KingUser

So close yet so far away. LoL

Do we do this abd cmd line in the middle of flashing twrp in odin reason why we untick automatic reboot? Or what am I doing wrong I wonder...

When I do a backup of null11, it says the backup was successful, but when I try to restore it, it fails (pic attached - can't read what's behind the reboot button. Pushing the back button exits the screen)

When I had null 10.1 installed, I did a backup and was able to restore that in your recovery.

I tried flashing null 11 again, but same error.

I tried going into advanced and did Fix Permissions, but it didn't make any difference.

Is anyone else having the same problem? Or is it just my system?

I have my 10.1 backup still, so worst case, I can restore that and then flash 11 over the top.

Hi, I tried installing the TWRP recovery on my Gear using Odin but then I got an error. After i finished installing TWRP I entered recovery on my Gear and found this... file:///C:/Users/This%20Computer%20sucks/Desktop/20131123_180611.jpg

The problem is that the Samsung Galaxy Gear logo is taking all of the space and I can only see a bit of the TWRP interface. I then tried to reintall TWRP using Odin but I wouldnt see my Gear in the ID:COM section anymore. Please help me, I would really like to install your rom onto my device but unfortunately I am having some problems. Thank you in advance.

Same problem here. Flashed TWRP recovery with Odin successfully. But using "adb reboot recovery" afterwards just sends me to Samsung recovery. Selecting "recovery" manually from reboot menu just wipes my Gear and reboots (after this, I am getting the initial setup screen which asks me to enable NFC on my phone and start pairing Gear and smartphone).

I am on MK7! DBT.
