Well that is a bummer. However, once I updated the app I stopped receiving email on one of my Gmail accounts. Thus, I didn't get any notification from that one account.
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] Srwilliams:
Thanks Schoolbob:

I will find the thread that you posted.

Let me be sure. The last update was a day or so ago, the one that messed me up. I got my OTA notice for the latest yesterday, Dec 28th and have been screwed up since The one you have and that is posted in the thread you provided is the one RIGHT BEFORE the most recent one correct. I do not want to go 2 firmwares back because the one right before the recent one gave higher volumes for the watch. So, that is why I am trying to make sure I only go one back from the recent released on Dec 27th.

I downloaded the MK7 firmware thanks to you. But for the last 30 mins I have been searching on how to load it. I orignally loaded the European MK7 a long while ago, but allowed an over the air update of the American MK7. So, I have over time forgotten what i did to load the Euaropean MK7 awhile ago. I have been trying to retrace my steps to reload this USA MK7 but I can't find what i did.

Can you or someone step in and give me simple instrutions on reloading this MK7. In other words how do I flash back to the older firmware
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] schoolbob:
You shouldn't need to revert to old firmware. You need to uninstall talk the Gear Manager software on the phone and install the version 1.5.120601 from the other thread. I believe that when I did this it made me re-pair the watch, wipe it and reset the whole thing. After I did this My Gmail notifications work again. To be clear, I did not touch the firmware on the watch. Mine is still on the MK7 update that I received OTA
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] Srwilliams:
Okay But that is my question. How do I install the gear manager version onto my phone. That is where I am stuck. I uninstall the gear manager firmware from my PHONE, correct. Then how do I get the new firmware onto the phone (keeping in mind that I leave the watch firmware alone as you advised)
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] schoolbob:
Once you uninstall, you simply open the apk file from wherever you downloaded it (downloaded from the link in the other thread). From there it sets up normally.
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] drmacrofish:
Did you figure this out. I recently flashed the "Tweaked" ROM to my Note 3 and I am getting the same message whenever I try to connect to any version of Gear Manager.

Don't update!!!

The latest update of Gear Manager is broken, and with bugs on it. Reverting back to the former version of it, solves the Further Notifications freezing problem. It should be removed from the SamsungApps store. I have written an e-mail to the developer of the app. :confused:
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] Srwilliams:
opethianskies:

I already made the mistake of installing the latest Gear Manager update and have been catching hell. Can you please explain to me how to reload the previous APK firmware posted in the above. I have Mobilego/Wondershare loaded on my computer b/c for some reason using ADB is difficult since my watch is not being read. But I can load the APK thru Wondershare. I just do not know WHERE OR WHAT FILE to place the new APK in and I do not want to make a mistake and mess myself up.

Can anyone step in and assist me so I do not blunder

[Samsung Galaxy Gear] opethianskies:
Just uninstall the new Gear Manager, and then install the downloaded apk (from the link above) as normal, and don't enter samsung apps in the manager. Bcoz it will trigger the update and never stop until you update it.

I just updated my gear manager with out a hitch, I had to attempt to reconnect my gear twice which is absolutely normal...

The second time it will wipe the /data/ partition on the gear...

No issues here.. They are requesting further permissions in regards to accounts on the phone tho, I haven't received any notifications just yet, so not sure if there is anything different..

Okay so i rooted my Samsung Galaxy express to jelly bean 4.2.2 using the method below.

but i cant access Samsung kies because it doesn't recognize rooted phones. So i was wondering if there was any way to keep the rooted features but go back to the stock rom? And if there is how do i do it and where do i get the file from?

Flash Clockwork Recovery

1. Download Express OUDHS CWM.exe.

2. Turn off the phone

3. Press and hold volume down and power to enter download mode (if this doesn’t work, press and hold volume down, power and home key)

4. Connect your phone to your computer via USB

5. Window ID: COM should be highlighted in yellow, this means your phone was properly detected

6. Press start and wait for installation

7. Disconnect your phone, recovery is now installed

Install SuperSU

1. Download SuperSU v1.25

2. Connect your phone to your computer via USB

3. Copy the SuperSU v1.25 file to the root of your SD card (make sure you have an SD card in your phone)

4. Turn off your phone

5. Hold volume up, power and home key to enter recovery (as soon as you see blue text on the top of the screen that read entering or booting recovery, immediately release all the buttons)

6. Click on install zip from SD card and locate SuperSU file

7. Select the SuperSU file and install

8. After installation is complete, reboot your phone

You will now have both custom recovery and SuperSU installed on your phone, which allows you to install custom ROM’s, which is the next step. (Make sure USB debugging is still enabled). Please note that these versions of CM10.1 and CM10.2 are unofficial builds, however are stable enough as daily drivers.

1. Download CM10.1(Android 4.2.2) or CM10.2(Android 4.3)

2. Download Gapps (Google Apps) for CM10.1 or Gapps for CM10.2

3. Connect your phone to your computer via USB and place ROM and Gapps files in root of SD card (make sure they are on SD card)

4. Download ROM Manager and reboot into recovery. You can also manually reboot into recovery by powering off your phone, pressing and holding volume up, power and home key.

5. Create a backup.

6. Wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache partition and dalvik cache (found in advanced)

7. Install the ROM from the SDCard

8. Install Gapps from the SDCard

9. Reboot phone and let it sit for a few minutes while it boots for the first time. It may take a few minutes, and this is only evident upon initial boot.

You will likely run into issues with non functional WiFi. To resolve this, after flashing the ROM, follow these simple steps:

1. Download this file.

2. Power off the phone.

3. Hold volume down, power and home button to enter download mode.

4. Press volume up to enter download mode.

5. Connect phone to your computer

6. Open Odin and flash the downloaded file as Bootloader (You should see a green box that indicates that the method passed and worked)

7. Reboot the phone and test WiFI

I personally think that the g2 is much better:

1. Performance wise. (s800 vs s600)

2. Ram (ddr3 vs ddr2) ?

3. Screen (same dimensions but the screen is much bigger 0.5" diff)

4. G2 is much much better.

5. Software (okay the g2 has some bloatware added but I'll find my way getting rid of those I dont want)

6. Sounds output higher quality than the competition ( htc one, s4 ect.)

Htc one privileges

Sense 5 doesnt lag at all compared to the g2's software

Build quality (they aren't even comparable)

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fenuxx:
My fiancée and I got ourselves a pair of Nexus 5's a couple of weeks ago, switched from Verizon to the T-Mo $30 100/Unlimited/5GB(Unlimited) plan and are now happily saving over $100 a month in the process. Yay us!

However, I've been struggling with VOIP with varying degrees of success. I've spent a considerable amount of time researching and configuring and tweaking, and I'd like to share my findings, as well as get some feedback on some things I may have missed.

One of the first things I tried was the Google Voice/PBXes/CSipSimple method, which produced terrible call quality. Everything from echo to background noise. No matter what I did (and believe me, I tried everything I could find) the call quality was just terrible. Changing the mic source, enabling mode audio API, changing the SIP audio mode, changing codecs, nothing really helped. Battery life was great, but the call quality was pretty much unusable. I could hear myself echoing, the other party could hear their own voice echoing, and/or there'd be too much background noise, or I'd be too quiet, etc.

Next, I tried Talkatone (paid for premium). Connection problems galore! I'd have several "lag fests" over WiFi (never tried it on LTE) even when I was sitting right at the router. Everything would cut out for about 30-45 seconds and then resume as if nothing happened, and this occurred 2-3 times over the course of a 10-15 minute call. Yes, I ruled out a connection/router issue. Battery life was "OK" but it wasn't as good as it was with CSipSimple.

I then tried GrooveIP (paid). Lots of echo here. Again, no setting or combination of settings really seemed to get rid of it. Tried as I might, the echo was always there. Battery life was on par with Talkatone.

Next, I decided I'd go a different direction and tried Skype. The voice quality was much improved, with no echo, but complaints of background noise, especially while on speakerphone. This has been passable, though not "ideal" (I know, VOIP isn't perfect). The big issue with Skype has been the absurd battery drain. A 30 minute call drained my battery by almost 20% and Skype was topping the charts by a long shot on the battery usage.

I know there are other options out there such as Viber, but I've not seen a whole lot out of them in terms of reviews, etc. I may just end up trying Viber and seeing how it pans out, but the options are starting to run out.

I know part of the problem is the same one the Nexus 4 had with the microphone(s) but, I'd like to think I just might be overlooking something. If anyone feels they've "solved the problem" please share your settings, as I'm sure I'm not the only one who feels as though they're banging their head against a wall here.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Battleship:
Viber works well for me and I only hear a slight echo if I'm talking with Nexus 4 users. Give it a shot. Tango might be worth a try, too. Good luck.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adrman:
Well, I believe Csipsimple is the best voip client available. So, you'll most likely want to go back to your first solution, but replace pbxes with Callcentric, voip.ms or another voip provider. I've tried everything you did as well (plus a few more options) and with the exception of Skype, found the quality to be unacceptable. What I'm suggesting won't be free, but the cost is extremely low. Actually, voip.ms could be a very good solution for you. You would establish and fund one "account", but set up separate "sub-accounts" for yourself and your fiance. If you wanted to use GV exclusively, you could then purchase a couple of DIDs and set up GV to forward to them. I use an app on my phone called Groove Forwarder that changes my GV forwarding settings based on my data connection. If I'm on LTE, etc..., it forwards to my T-Mobile number. When I'm connected to Wi-Fi though, it switches to my Flowroute (another voip provider) number. Also fwiw, you can use voip over LTE if you want. Being in a moving vehicle set up that way will cause issues however.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fenuxx:
Yeah, I also tried the Callcentric+PBXes route for the iLBC codec, which didn't seem to help. I'm not entirely convinced it's the PBX provider that's at fault, as I don't have these weird audio issues with CSipSimple+PBXes/Callcentric on my "home phone" (separate Google Voice account) which is an old DROID Incredible 2. Voice quality there is fine.

I did look into voip.ms, but when I signed up (late at night), they forced a "manual authentication" on me (why, I don't know) and I needed to contact support. I tried logging in the following morning, only to be greeted with a message about my IP address not being whiteflagged and not being authorized to access the account. Being that my IP address is dynamic, I don't think I want to constantly fight that battle about "approving" my IP address whenever it changes.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adrman:
Create a ticket with voip.ms support to inquire. I've only good things to say about their response times and help.

Does anyone have bluetooth headsets working with csipsimple? On my nexus 5 I've yet to find a sip phone that works correctly with a headset.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Enddo:
groove and google voice gave me no echo when calling a landline from my wifi connection. i think this has to be your internet access that would be messing this up. . .or maybe it's just bad for voip to voip calls
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alwaysbless:
I can personally attest to voip.ms + csipsimple + g729 codec ($10 dollars in the playstore) reliability as a voip setup for my Nexus 5. My set up is basically that GV forwards to my voip.ms DID which rings directly to my Nexus 5's csipsimple app. In the event that im not registered in csipsimple (e.g. lose connection, servers go down, etc) I have failover set up w/ voip.ms to ring to my real tmobile phone number. I have zero issues with call quality or echo and I have had full conversations with people on the phone even while driving. I also used this guys tip when first setting up, these may or may not change a thing but Ive had my csipsimple configured with these settings since day 1 also.

1. Go to settings

2. Click the menu button -> Expert Mode

3. Go to “media” -> select echo mode and choose WebRTC (probably already chosen)

4. In “media” go to “Audio troubleshooting” -> “Mic source” -> Voice call

5. in “Audio troubleshooting” -> “Audio implementation” -> Java
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lessthanjoey:
I use flowroute + csimpsimple (G729). Call quality is excellent and low latency on WiFi and LTE, and not bad over HSPA/HSPA+.

My main issue at the moment is bluetooth. I cannot get it to work with the bluetooth in my car (only bluetooth I have). I can get incoming audio OK, but it appears to be using the phone microphone for outgoing audio instead of the car microphone and it's very garbled and noisy.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pcloadletter1:
There was a software issue in 4.2 regarding inline mic gain, 4.2.2 fixed it. GroovIP free worked fine for me after the update. There is only a few months left of google voice as they are shutting it down on May 15, 2014.

Well, my mate sent me a VCard from his K750i the other week, and my 2i received it as a plain old text message - but it shows the raw formatting.

This is what it looked like:

Obviously I've replaced his mobile number with a made-up one, but the rest of the formatting is as I received it.

I guess the X-IRMC-LUID is some form of unique identifier, I'm assuming that it's tied to the handset model or something. I also guess that, THEORETICALLY, if you just copy and paste that text into a new text file (keeping the formatting), replace the example phone number with your own, if you sent that as a text message to someone with a phone supporting Business Cards, it would probably show it as a business card and give the recipient the usual options (add to address book, etc).

You might want to experiment further by asking (nicely) someone with a Nokia phone to send one of their numbers, maybe your own, to yourself as a Business Card - you could then just keep that text message and just forward it to others.

Ok, so it's not ideal, but it's a probably-workable bodge that I'd be quite happy with. :D

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RonChinoy:
The only reason I purchased the Nexus 5 was because it uses the same processor as the Note 3. So was expecting it to be on par with the note 3.

Also as it had kitkat expected it to be much faster than the Note 3.

But every single bench mark. (And i am talking about those that do not cheat).

Shows that the nexus is no where near the speed of the Note 3.

Hell its even slower than the S4. Which is a crying shame.

On digging futher. I traced the problem back to the speed governors and thermal management on the nexus 5.

There are quite a few articles discussing how the Note 3 CPU throttling differs from the Nexus 5.

Hell some benchmarks report that the nexus 5 is even slower than the nexus 4.1

WTF Google all this noise about Kit Kat and you get blwon out of the water by older slower phones.

Is there anyway for us to fix this.

Is there anyway for us to use and load the Note 3 system UI and Kernel on the nexus. As they both have identical CPU and GPU.

Please somebody come up with a fix for this.

I tried one of the Kernels on here that claimed to solve this problem But it resulted in frequent hangs and black screens.

Had to reload factory image just to boot.

Why is the Nexus 5 development laging so bad when say compared to the Samsung Phones.

My 2 cents never buy a google phone. Buy a Samsung Phone. Hell my S2 could run its dual core at 1.4 all day without a single problem.
