Gav I am not sure I am following u here dude.

Let me tell u my experience.

I only have a borrowed HTC one and have as we'll tried some iPhones (never used BTstack cydia tweak) with the Gear 1.

I can connect the HTC through Gear Manager (can provide the links where I found it and the stub if u like me to) without a problem.

The HTC is stock 4.4.2 not rooted.

If the watch is reset to factory I definitely need the HTC otherwise it is useless.

However, after it connect the Gear and the HTC and have access to the watch settings (not anymore stuck in the how to pair video screen) I can also connect an iPhone 4 (no BT 4.0) as well as an iPhone 5 and my iPhone 5S. As long as I am have not installed the airbluesharing tweak which somehow messes the BT stack of the iPhone (I think).

However the iPhone thinks that the (Tizen stock or modded running) Gear is simply a hands free device, simple as that. Althoufgh they are connected, on the gear side it seems that there is no connection.

What actually works I have listed here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2789095

My opinion (I am not a dev by any means) is that basic hands free functionality is achieved outside the Gear Manager whereas all other BT profiles are somehow tied to that God damned manager.

Then again the current thread is talking about unlocking the full BT stack of the Tizen running Gear, if I understood OK.

If that is the case, all possibilities are open because as I have already told u I have seen the i'mwatch communicate with the Gear with absolutely no app on the iPhone side.

Hope that helps!
[Samsung Gear 2] gav83collins:
Well tomorrow I'm removing my kali Linux and I'm gonna install Ubuntu and look into that be profile on the gear side.

I meant the Cydia tweak btstack has options to use it as stack. None or ios. And with air blue and stack. On stack I can connect hands free mode. Without the set up video. Showing.

With the other devices I was just stating how even with Samsung devices it's difficult to communicate.

I'm gonna do more research in to ios Bluetooth. And the gears profiling of it tomorrow. IL report back here with findings
[Samsung Gear 2] gidi:
I understand what u r saying.

Looking forward to hearing from you tomorrow.

Thanx a lot dude!
[Samsung Gear 2] gidi:
Hey gav, any news on this one?

:)
[Samsung Gear 2] gav83collins:
No mate sorry not yet it took most of my day to download the tizen gear source code. And the u Ubuntu sdk and the Ubuntu iso. and create new mirrors. . As well figuring out to flash and use custom ring tones. I got the software downloaded for ubuntu but to install it would have disabled my network adapter temporarily but I didn't want to do that cos of the painstaking low speed of the tien source code. By the time it finished with everything else I was doing I didn't have enough time to install it and play around. But tomorrow afternoon IL get on with it. I've got all the software needed.

Watch this space lol
[Samsung Gear 2] javispedro:
Correct, that's called the Apple Notification Center service and is obviously not supported by the Gear.

The standard Bluetooth profile is called the Alert Notification Profile and is not supported by either the Gear or the iPhone.

I am not sure if this is all that is required.

For example pairing a device with the Gear will make it popup the "factory reset needed" dialog. The source of that dialog seems to be com.samsung.bt-syspopup. Uninstalling it results in no "factory reset needed" prompt, but also no Bluetooth prompts at all..... Maybe one could install the stock org.tizen.bt-syspopup one.
[Samsung Gear 2] gidi:
Dude I am not gonna ask again, I certainly do not want to press you.

Take your time and I'll definitely be watching the thread!
[Samsung Gear 2] ScDoc8:
Updated!!!

No need to compile the source for the above file.

You can download the already compiled from directly from Tizen's website.

download.tizen.org/live/Tizen:/2.2:/Main/standard/armv7l/wrt-plugins-tizen-0.4.80-1.2.armv7l.rpm

Happy Moding!!

Good Luck!!
[Samsung Gear 2] noellenchris:
I was bored so I downloaded the stack and pushed to my gear. I installed the package and rebooted. Everything still seemed the same, but of course I have a Note 3 running TW. Only thing was I use MultiWatch for my main clock and it was a blank screen for the "Home" screen. I could load up the other clocks. So I wasn't sure I really needed the stack as of yet, so I Odin'd back to replace stack with stock. All is well. I was wondering if this may be needed to enable bluetooth tether in the future when we get a browser or something. Well thanks for your find, hopefully this will help the non TW roms and non Android devices connect.

It's cool man don't worry. I'm spending the morning wiring up a new amp. Stereo. Sub . Crossovers and tweeters to my girlfriends car. Then IL jump on this straight after

Watch this space

Oh cool nice find. . Gonna save me some time with u ubunt if I can do it straight in windows
[Samsung Gear 2] gidi:
These are good news!!!
[Samsung Gear 2] gav83collins:
does this mean its successful ?

i cant find the var/blutooth to check ???

any help would be appreciated
[Samsung Gear 2] gidi:
Does not seem that it run OK to me,

What is the -Ivh flag?
[Samsung Gear 2] gav83collins:
i dont know this tizen lark is new to me im learning as i go along

im gonna try again to my gear 1
[Samsung Gear 2] noellenchris:
No there was some typos.

1. put renamed file wrt-plugins-tizen.rpm in same folder as sdb.exe

2. sdb root on

3 sdb push wrt-plugins-tizen.rpm /home

4 sdb shell

5 mount -o remount,rw /

6 cd /home

7 rpm -ivh wrt-plugins-tizen.rpm --nodeps --force

you should see it install that time. Ok gotta run off to work. Good luck.

Chris
[Samsung Gear 2] gidi:
Thanks dude, I am also gonna try that.
[Samsung Gear 2] gav83collins:
thanks alot, i flashed it, aswell as busybox while i was in there lol, cheers man, your a legend

now to play around with my iphone
[Samsung Gear 2] gidi:
This is cool, gav my man!

Keep us noted.

Only thing that bother me is the iPhone 4 is no BLE.

Are u running iOS 7;
[Samsung Gear 2] gav83collins:
oh yes ble, is the standard needed isnt it , for communication to the heart rate monitor anyway at least ????

shall i try on my ipad mini il google if thats ble
[Samsung Gear 2] gidi:
BLE is BT ver 4 and it means Bluetooth Low Emission.

It is my understanding that the Gear might actually need a BLE capable device in order to work, apart from the basic hands free profile.

The iPad mini although bring an ipad 2 repackaged in a smaller chassis does indeed support BLE, from what I have read.

I have an iPhone 5S however, so I can try whatever you may need me to.
[Samsung Gear 2] gav83collins:
mate i only have ipad n iphone to keep up with jailbreaking techniques otherwise id have the 5s , yeah my ipad mini is low energy bt, il have a look at it now, thats also jb ios 7
[Samsung Gear 2] gidi:
I know u r not an Apple guy. I have read in ur previous posts that u only keep the iphone 4 around just to keep up with the JB scene.

I just mentioned the lack of BLE on the iPhone 4, because it may have to do with your efforts not working out.

:)

If you want me to,try anything to help you out, just say the word.
[Samsung Gear 2] gav83collins:
lol evenmy ipad totally flat got to charge it first, then i can try, is there any advanced notification setting apps you know of on cydi or in the ios app store which may link the devices ?

found 1, btnotificationenabler

says it sends to a pebble and similar, i dont have a sim in my gear 1, il back up my gear 2 to my s5, and try pairing that
[Samsung Gear 2] gidi:
Dude, you may want to check out BTnotificationenabler tweak. Does not work on A7 devices, but your mini will be OK.

It had been using it back when I had a Pebble watch and iPhione 5 running iOS 6.

However iOS 7 is supposed to expose notification over BT, by default.

http://selfscreens.com/archives/3670/ios-7-natively-pushes-notifications-to-pebble

I have seen somewhere (can't find the link) that they managed to push all notifications from iPhone (no JB!) to Google Glass by simply installing the Pebble app on the iPhone!

There is also BTstack tweak, but it is more of a framework one can use to create profiles from scratch (I think) and it REPLACES the native BT stack.

Last tweak I can think of is AirBlueSharing, but when this is installed the iPhone cannot connect with the watch:

[Samsung Gear 2] gidi:
I will also give it a shot later on.

Did u install BTnortificationenabler?
[Samsung Gear 2] gav83collins:
yeah if you look above i told you the same time you told me lol, id already installed it, and made sure notification to bluetooth were set correctly, i tried alerts and notifications, using gmail alone, my ipad is 3g but doesnt do texts or calls
[Samsung Gear 2] gidi:
This sounds like bad news. Do you see any difference in the BT settings of the Gear after flashing?
[Samsung Gear 2] gav83collins:
No I think it's just libs the driver between the two. Like what we just done here. Fixed a broken shortcut kinda
[Samsung Gear 2] gidi:
I did not understand what u mean. I a gonna try it out myself in a couple of hours.

Dude, how can i tell it was flashed OK?

I executed all the shell commands and it seems that it worked, but how can i make sure?

@ScDoc8, [MENTION=3402861]gav83collins[/MENTION], [MENTION=483200]noellenchris[/MENTION] after installing the "new" BT stack is there any way that the BT menu of the Gear presents more options?

For example searching for phones (not only BT headsets) or listing the supported profiles.
[Samsung Gear 2] hotpang:
Gear 2 neo can do it ?
[Samsung Gear 2] gidi:
Do what?
[Samsung Gear 2] hotpang:
Flash it
[Samsung Gear 2] gidi:
Dude, u really should be asking more clear/detailed questions if good answers is what you seek.

I think that it can be flashed on the Neo, as well. Not sure though.
[Samsung Gear 2] hotpang:
Sorry...thx
[Samsung Gear 2] gidi:
No problem mate, we are here to help.
[Samsung Gear 2] noellenchris:
I don't think I can help much there, I redid Odin already. I did do a quick look after and really couldn't see what changed. I do know that it somehow messed up the Multi-Clock wgt that I use. So after a few attempts to repair, I just did Odin to Skin's latest. Sorry.

[Samsung Gear 2] ScDoc8:
UPDATE #2

Ok I reset my gear 2 and repeated everything and confirned this works. There are a few modications now.

1. Download this file from tizens website - download.tizen.org/releases/2.2.1/latest/repos/tizen-main/armv7l/packages/armv7l/wrt-plugins-tizen-0.4.80-1.1.armv7l.rpm

2. From a command prompt cd into your folder where sdb.exe is kept. (ie. tizen/tools/ )

3. Enter command ./sdb root on to put gear 2 into root mode.

4. Next push downloaded file above onto your gear. (ie. ./sdb push ~/Downloads/wrt-plugins-tizen-0.4.80-1.1.armv7l.rpm /tmp/ )

(There is a space between the tizen file and the /tmp/ which places the file into the tmp folder on the gear 2)

5. Shell into your gear 2. (ie. ./sdb shell )

6. At the command prompt, make the file system writable. (ie. mount -o remount,rw / )

7. Change to the tmp directory and install the rpm file. (ie. cd tmp ) (ie. rpm -i --force --nodeps --replacefiles wrt-plugins-tizen-0.4.80-1.1.armv7l.rpm

8. If successful you should have NO OUTPUT and only a new command prompt.

9. Type reboot on the command prompt on the gear 2 and it restarts.

10. Start the Wear IDE and try to use the Bluetooth API Calls and it should work.

Any Problems let me know!

Will
[Samsung Gear 2] ScDoc8:
I don't have a gear neo, but theorectically it should work fine.
[Samsung Gear 2] gidi:
Hi Will,

When Itried it, there was output when installing. Which means it did not work out good.

I will trap again. Should I flash TizenMod v3.0 before starting over?

UPDATE: Did it again and all went smooth.This time the installation produce no output. Thank you very much!
[Samsung Gear 2] gidi:
I have reflashed TizenMod v3.0 (so that to start from scratch) and then proceeded with pushing and installing the package. Installation went smooth.

I do not have the Tizen IDE installed nor am i a developer, so all i can do is test if iPhone notifications pass through onto the Gear after the new BT stack.

So far, i have seen nothing new.

I have installed (but could not pair without an actual Pebble watch) the Pebble app on my JB iPhone 5S, but again nothing.

I have tried with a JB iPhone 4 running the BTnotificationenabler tweak without success.

I am open to suggestions if someone has an idea.

I know of a certain dev over at Pebble forums (the guy who created the excellent smartwatch+ app) who could help but he does not have a Gear.

I had contacted this guy in the past, and he had told me that if he had a Gear he would look into it.

I had asked if anyone was interested in donating some money so that the dev bought one, but noone was positive.
[Samsung Gear 2] ScDoc8:
Remember the point of this install is to allow access to the Bluetooth API within the Wear IDE for the gear 2. This doesn't allow direct communication to the iPhone yet. There will have to be a program written in the tizen wear IDE that connects to the iPhone and interrupts the Apple Notification Service output. It's mostly helpful for dev's who are looking to connect their gear 2 with other bluetooth devices.

Hope that helps.

Will
[Samsung Gear 2] gidi:
Thanks for clearing this out Will! I guess we shall have to see if any dev is interested in doing this (which I kind of doubt, although it would make headline news).

Let's hope that someone is interested! Otherwise we have to keep waiting (forever) for the iWatch.
[Samsung Gear 2] gav83collins:
He could emulate the gear in tizen sdk if he wanted to test his build out. Or if he wanted I'm more than happy to beta on on ipad and iphone
[Samsung Gear 2] gidi:
Rob (the dev) is developing on the iPhone side. Therefore, I think,he would need an actual Gear in order to test the BT connection,
[Samsung Gear 2] gav83collins:
He could emulate the app basics. Display. Navigation. And install state. Then upload his nightly builds for us to beta for him
[Samsung Gear 2] ScDoc8:
My interest is with the Apple Notification Service which was developed to interact with Bluetooth devices outside of the iOS environment. This would simply require someone to connect ot the iphone and develop an app for the gear 2 that can interact with the Apple Notification Service and send and recieve the notifications.

Here is a link to the Apple Notification Service Description

https://developer.apple.com/Library...eSpecification/Introduction/Introduction.html
[Samsung Gear 2] gav83collins:
Interesting read thank you

I'm currently flashing pushlibs. Push doctor and other ios tweaks in Cydia to see if this helps. After reading what you posted. Thanks again
[Samsung Gear 2] gidi:
Doc, my man, are you saying that a solution developed on the Gear side is what we need?

If that is the case, then we need a Tizen dev, right?
[Samsung Gear 2] ScDoc8:
Yes the app would have to be developed with Tizen as a gear 2 widget app to communicate with the iPhone. I see that the Apple Notification Service communicates over Bluetooth LE, which the gear 2 doesn't support as of yet. That is included with Tizen 3.0, whereas the wearable version of tizen is version 2.3. Samsung would have to re-release or update their Gear ROM to support Tizen 3.0 and then if they chose to, could use Bluetooth LE. I would assume this would be desired as it could improve the battery life on the gear.

I am looking into if the Apple Notification Center can use normal bluetooth which if so, then the gear 2 should be fine to work.
[Samsung Gear 2] gidi:
Doc I am gonna ask the million dollar question:

Is there a possibility that you will work on this widget?
[Samsung Gear 2] javispedro:
Actually Tizen 2.3 already supports BLE, as clearly seen in

www dot tizen dot org /blogs/tsg/2014/tizen-2.3-alpha-source-code-release

(sorry for the spaces, stupid XDA forum rules won't let me post links yet).

Maybe you mean BLE is only supported in Web apps from 3.0 onwards? I wish those guys had a roadmap.

The problems are two-fold:

1) I don't what version of Tizen runs on the Gear. It seems to be a frankenstein mix of 2.2 and 2.3 with lots and lots of propietary Samsung stuff on top of it. I really wish I could flash clean Tizen 2.3 on it, or anything else for the matter...

In any case, whatever version of Tizen is on the Gear 2, it is certainly BLE capable. I've been experimenting with the BT framework and can confirm it. BLE is not used at all by the Gear Manager, though (uses plain old RFCOMM socket). No idea about native apps.

2) How to actually even pair with an iPhone if it won't even let us pass the initial setup screen without a working Gear Manager?

Btw Apple Notification Center most definitely does NOT support non-BLE connections. The entire CoreBluetooth only supports BLE.
[Samsung Gear 2] gidi:
Pedro, my man, you may wanna see the bellow link:

http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-gear/help/galaxy-gear-1-tizen-os-trouble-t2846576

You can pass the initial setup screen by using a BLE capable Android phone (not necessarily Samsung). After the initial connection you may proceed with your iPhone.
[Samsung Gear 2] ScDoc8:
Pedro,

I see the bt-syspopup in the tizen snapshot, but there is another bt-connection that seems to be only on the wearable. On your evaluation of this, did you come accross this being active during that time?

The next step in pairing the iphone with the gear 2 will invlove removing that warning and allowing a connection. Any leads on your end? I am working on it too.

Doc
[Samsung Gear 2] javispedro:
Yeah, but you need to use the Gear Manager. as mentioned. Trying to avoid that.

Yeah, I have the factory-reset warning pretty much removed by now: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=54973529&postcount=8

Haven't tried what happens with Gear Manager though (ie whether it'll accept the new pairing). The bluetooth side of it works, though, so that should be enough to pair with an iPhone.

Now I'd like to figure out how to skip the initial setup wizard. It just prevents me from getting into sdb after a factory reset. Since I have no Android hardware I have to use a android-x86.org image to skip the wizard, which is a pain.

Additionally... even if we were able to make an program, native or webruntime, that would be able to receive notifications from the iPhone, do we know how to "inject" them into the watchfaces?

If anyone's thinking "well I can pair my iPhone just fine with the stock firmware" the problem is that you're pairing it only as bluetooth headset, nothing else. This can be seen in the bluetooth-frwk source code I linked. The stock firmware will refuse to pair anything without a hard-reset unless it's a headphone OR it's the first device you're pairing (during initial setup). I am not sure how to force the iPhone to pair as a BLE device... maybe it just happens automagically.
[Samsung Gear 2] hotpang:
flashed can use bluetooth headset ?
[Samsung Gear 2] gidi:
Pedro, my man, i have read your post and i am impressed by your progress. Do you suggest that we patch the TizenMod v3.0 firmware as well so that to be able to connect to multiple devices? I have an iPhone 5S, and iPhone 4 and an HTC One (and of course a Gear 1) at my disposal. If you need any help just say the word.

My gut feeling is that we have never been in the right track before this thread started. It doesn't really matter if you and the other devs actually make it to the end line and present a real solution for connecting the iPhone and the Gear. What matters is that you are trying.

Thread closed,

Thread has been closed as this is still classed as OT at the minute as there is no actual information if Windows 8 will be released for the M8. If it is it will likely be a different phone as I can't see the hardware / bootloader being compatible with it.

Remember to search before posting. There have been a few of these threads closed already.

I own a HTC One M7 UL with KitKat 4.4.2 and HTC Sense 6 installed. I installed TWRP 2.7.1 custom recovery on it and after that I turned S-Off and removed the Tempered flag and then locked the bootloader but let custom recovery stay there. Can I turn S-On back with custom recovery installed without bricking my phone.

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] majmoz:
Yes, you can have a custom recovery and S-ON. However, unless you are returning the phone for warranty reasons the consensus is that you should remain S-OFF. It is becoming more difficult to get S-OFF with the higher hboot like you have.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mabaqi:
Thank you majmoz for your support,I really appreciate your early response. I am a new user on this platform and I really appreciate this forum and people like you helping others.

I am on Hboot v 1.57 and used Firewater to S-Off it. Even if I S-On again, wont I be able to use Firewater to S-Off again anytime I want to, This will make me more secure as I may save myself from bad flashes and etc.

Once more, thank you for your support.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] majmoz:
Yes, you are right if everything remained the same you could S-Off again. And there are a couple of paid options to S-OFF. S-ON will not prevent you from bad flashes or soft-bricks. You can look through the Q&A section and see how many of the questions are from people with S-ON! With S-OFF, you just need to be more diligent, check the source, check MD5, read and re-read the OP and don't do anything that you are uncomfortable doing. Good luck and happy flashing!
