[Galaxy Note 4 General] ShadowFlare:
If you look at your Note 4, the bezels are already as thin as it is., I really don't think they can fit 6 inch screen without increasing footprint.

1. The side bezels are very thin, but LG G2 is the thinnest still but had to move the buttons to the back

2. The bottom bezel will always be thick due to Samsung's Home button signature (and as a fingerprint reader)

3. Top bezel is there to pretty much to balance the bottom bezel then adjust the screen's position right in the middle

If they get rid of the Home button, then perhaps the phone may get wider without getting taller to fit 6 inch screen.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Zanr Zij:
They need min width = 80.5mm to fit 5.9" screen. I guess Note 5 will be 5.85" and SS will keep it about 80mm l :)

PS: Note 4 width = 78.6mm
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Slai:
Sure the bezels are thin, but they could be thinner. And as you mention, the home key isn't set in stone. The top can also be thinner, there are several phones that don't have the top and bottom be exactly alike. I wouldn't mind it.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Erazo1986:
This thread is ridiculous as much as it is stupid. I have owned a note 2,note 3,and now the note 4 and it is honestly Samsung's best phone yet.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] donharden2002:
I personally hope not. I returned my nexus 6 to AT&T yesterday due to it just being too wide.

I think there's room for Samsung to make the screen bigger using the same body size as the note 4.

Anyone else having a problem getting camera images to be saved onto the SD card. When i start the camera application it asks me if i want to use my SD as the storage location. I agree. it is a 2gb SD. I take pictures as I would with the main mem as the storage loc. When I go to look in the folder I see no pictures! I checked the foder value in the registry and it is correct.....

ideas?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] MikeChannon:
When in the camera application and you go through the tools menu to see where it's storing the pictures - does it confirm that Storage Card is being used.

There are some things to note:

You cannot have "network folder" enabled and store to the storage card. If it is enabled you must disable it and then use the menu in the camera to select storage card.

Sometimes the camera does not auto create the My documents>My pictures directory on the storage card. If not you can create it.

Update on November 10th: With new Gear Manager Update (10. November) now finally it works and connects, thank you Samsung:)

I bought the Gear S yesterday and wanted to pair it with my Tab S 8.4 (T705). Unfortunately it is not possible, I feat it only works with mobile phones? (even the Tab S is also a mobile phone). Anyone know a promising solution? Thanks!
[Samsung Gear S] Uniquebarbee:
+1 I d like to know as well I have the gear 2 for now but would like to pair gear S and tab S LTE
[Samsung Gear S] lglossman:
Have you tried installing Gear Manager manually? There are videos that show how to pair Gear 1 and 2 to non Samsung devices, maybe it also works for the gear s..
[Samsung Gear S] Cyman:
Yes I tried that, at least I changed the Model Number in build.prop (because I don't have to instal Samsung Services because it is a Samsung device). Didn't work out either...Interesting is, that with an old version of Gear Manager I can find the Gear S, but when I want to connect, it only sais "connecting to Gear" for hours...
[Samsung Gear S] Uniquebarbee:
The gear S should be able to connect to the tab it may show up as a bluetooth device only . My gear 2 pairs to my Tab S LTE/Wifi. That is very odd. Have you tired both gear managers old and new?
[Samsung Gear S] Cyman:
I tried that. I see the Gear S as a bluetooth device in settings but when I want to pair, it tells me, that the software ist not compatible. In Gear Manager, I don't find any device. Samsung Switzerland told me, that it is NOT compatible with Tab S at this moment, very disappointing. Hope for a fix, when Gear S is available worldwide. Meanwhile at least, I figured out, that the easter egg trick from Gear 2 (Press 25 Times screen when it wants to pair) works as well on Gear S, so you can use it as a phone wihtout pairing it to a Samsung device.
[Samsung Gear S] Uniquebarbee:
O ok that is good to hear maybe there will be a fix this Friday nov 7 that is when the US release will began. I have a Note 4 and a tab S LTE I will pair with the note 4 for now but want the outcome to pair to tab S

Samsung Gear S in CH

Hi Cyman,

I have just bought the Gear S from Digitec, probably you bought from the same store.

Very disappointed that it needs a Galaxy smartphone (and not even all of them are actually compatible) for the sync with the Gear Manager app, I found it out later once I got home since the package said that it needs only an Android 4.3 with 1.5 GB of RAM minimum.

I have a Tab 3, also trying to pair: I could install all the versions from XDA but without succeeding so far.

I will let you know.
[Samsung Gear S] Cyman:
yes please let me know as soon as you succeed. It's a shame, people with non Samsung Devices are able to connect but it doesn't work with the latest Samsung Tab...

I'm from Italy.I have the same problem. I have downloaded the latest version of Gear Manager 2.2.14110499 but nothing, not work.

HELP ME PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[Samsung Gear S] Cyman:
I'm not sure, what is is that helped. I tried the way from the other post for non Galaxy-Devices, I was able to pair but not to connect via Gear Manager. Then I changed my build.prop to a Samsung Galaxy S4 (GT-I9500 and device=Phone) and then I upgraded to the lastet Gear Manager. Suddenly I saw the Gear S as a device and it connected. Maybe you should try these two things? Best of luck!
[Samsung Gear S] Uniquebarbee:
Does everything work with these paired? can I forward tab S number to gear S?
[Samsung Gear S] Cyman:
everything works so far! Not sure about the number though because I have a Dual SIM, so two SIM for one number, it's possible in Europe
[Samsung Gear S] Uniquebarbee:
o ok I have different service for me tab S and GS so I guess I have dual sim just 2 different ones lol ok thanks I will try
[Samsung Gear S] bqwd36:

三星tabsT705c连接Gear S教程

买来Gear S才发现居然不支持最新的三星平板Tabs，无奈之下踏上了漫漫研究路，期间砖tab一次，丢重要资料若干，怎一个苦字了得。

废话不多说，下面说说我是怎么弄成功。

第一步，卸载最新版的Gear manager，安装老版的Gear manager。在老版本里面你可以惊喜的发现可以搜索到tabs，因为新版本里面尽管在蓝牙下可以看到，但是在manager里面居然无法发现。在旧版里面找到后就可以开始配对了，期间和普通的Gear1一样会安装点软件什么的，装完后就会长时间停留在配对的界面没有响应了，这时候直接点左边的键再上划杀掉进程。

第二步，root你的tabs然后修改你的tabs中system/build.prop文件，将其中的build.model=SM-T705c改为build.model=SM-N900.因为一开始我只是改成立GT-i9500，直接就是失败。再把文件中有个地方写着”tablet”的，改成“phone”,lcd.density=”320“改成”240“。然后重启，这样会进不去设置里面，然后有个办法可以进去就是下滑打开状态栏菜单后选择快捷键修改，进去会发现设置变样子了。

上述两个步骤可能有先后顺序，我应该是先做的第二步再做的第一步。如果按我发的顺序不行的话可以再反过来重新试试。不过做上述第二步之前千万记得要备份系统，最好是刷了recovery6.0.5直接在recovery里面backup。以防万一开不了机。

第三步，卸载旧版Gear manager然后安装新版的，我在这时候发现之前旧版匹配过的Gear S在新版里面可以继续看得到。不过不是在新设备里面而是在已匹配设备中，这是可以点击连接，期间又会安装若干软件。安装完毕之后就会惊喜的发现，两个设备居然连接起来了。

我随后把build.prop文件又改回来原来的样子，期间的问题就是在Gear manager进入Samsung Gear apps后看不软件了，唯一只能看到一个tts软件，然后直接进入三星商店的话，进galaxy界面会显示不支持，然后就会断开连接。

除上述问题外，其余功能完全正常。

thanks !!!
[Samsung Gear S] ChardC:
Hi everyone,

I have the solution for all of those making the attempt to pair their Gear S with the Tab S, as I have successfully made the attempt with mine, after having theexperience of tweaking the build.prop file.

1. Tab S or Tab 4 must be rooted (you should head over to the forum where one of our spectacular devs would have done a write up on it)

2. Obtain Android a build.prop editor or in my case, I use Android Tuner (Free Version: http://www.3c71.com/atfree - Pro Version: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ccc71.at&hl=en)

3. Using the above applications, use the menu/tool to edit the build.prop. I this instance, I am unsing Android Tuner, so I will go over to the first page to select "Build.prop editor", select it by tapping on the button. First things first, click the backup button to save your existing build.prop file. Don't ever progress into modifications, without having a backup or recovery method. Once you have completed all of the above, here are the edits you need to make in the edit by simply click on the pen (blue/white icon) for each key).

Please note, I am having my Tab S indicate its the SM-N900P (Sprint Variant of Note 3), however, you can choose any other smartphone of you liking, once you know the details of the keys indicated below).

key: ro.build.characteristics

value: phone

key: ro.build.product

value: hlte

key: ro.product.device

value: hlte

key: ro.product.model

value: SM-N900P

4. Once you have completed edits for the aforementioned keys, verify your changes, then save your build.prop with your editor or in the case of Android Tuner, you're all good and just need to reboot your device.

5. Once your device completes the reboot and you're back on the Android platform, clear the data for your Galaxy Apps, before proceeding to the store. Once cleared, you will be able to download Gear Manager, Gear Fit or other application may not ordinarily have on a tablet.

6. Go over to your Bluetooth, add a new device (your gear should be reset to factory settings in order to pair with another device, so you will need to complete this step if you want to proceed with pairing the Gear S with the Tab S or Tab 4 and probably any other tablet device.

7. Follow the normal pairing settings and everything will go accordingly, gear manager will launch, the device will pair with the Gear S and continue to installing all prerequisite apps).

8. You have completed the pairing of your Gear S with your Tab S or Tab 4.

Feel free to reach out for assistance if you are having difficulty with any of the steps above and always remember, before proceeding, backup your devices.

Troubleshooting

If you realize any issues with launching settings on your Tab S or Tab 4 after making the aforementioned changes in the build.prop file, revert to the following and save.

key: ro.build.characteristics

value: tablet

Reboot and everything should be back to normal, without the loss of functionality.

Tab S 8.4 t705 with Gear S

I am using the latest version of gear manager and it is not connecting. I also have the tab s 8.4 t705. Is it still working for you?
[Samsung Gear S] m1hail:
It took me some time to figure it out but I successfully managed to connect my gear s to my tab s (t800)

What worked for me (tab s SM-T800)

OS 4.4.2 + root

key: ro.build.characteristics

value: phone

key: ro.product.device

value: hltetmo

key: ro.product.model

value: SM-N900T

- reboot tablet

- once you switch to "mobile" you wont be able to get to "settings" anymore.

1) - open galaxy apps and search for gear manager.

2) download & install

3) factory reset your gear s

4) open gear manager on tablet and sync with your watch

5) change ro.build.characteristics back to "tablet"

6) reboot tablet

enjoy
[Samsung Gear S] EFCLEE:
Just done exactly this, bravo sir!! :good:
[Samsung Gear S] ZetaKappa:
this will work with sm-t705 tab s 8.4?

Have you lost some features switching back your tablet settings to original (tablet-phone-model in build)
[Samsung Gear S] EFCLEE:
Hi

I followed this video

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G5zNsR1xdww

Then installed 3 C Toolbox to edit the build.prop file..

Once these settings have been changed you can connect to your Gear S, then simply change it back to tablet..

Works ok for me, not noticed any other issue

Edit: I have just done a complete restore of original build.prop settings and Gear s still works, so only need to change while you connect then revert back.. I lost my space bar and still after reboot, changed build.prop to original and on reboot it came back, and still connects to Gear S - hope that helps..
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] peteypub:
Hello. I decided to start a new thread. I have a Moonshine s-off phone. Recently I reset the phone put stock recovery on it and ran the newest RUU. It worked I got the new software[emoji3] . Then I unlocked the phone using the HTCDev method and my old unlock key, everything worked, when I went into BOOTLOADER phone said TAMPERED UNLOCKED S-OFF.

The only thing missing is my camera. Sometimes it turns on, but very rarely ( maybe 1/200 tries ). It tells me Unable To Start The Camera.

I think it's a software glitch, as with previous version of Android I had no issues. Also with the new OS the flash is BUSY sometimes. When I want to use a flashlight phone tells me PHONE SCREEN WILL BE USED FOR ILLUMINATION SINCE THE FLASH IS IN USE BY OTHER APP. There is no other app running...

I tried flashing TWRP but fastboot just hangs, I left it on for 3 hours and it never finished. I tried using the SD IMG method. It goes thru, tells me to reboot. When I do I'm on the same stock recovery...

I have backups of my phone. But they are all done with TWRP and I can't install it. I tried CWM as well, same result, timeout.

I might try running a lower version RUU and see if that fixes all...

My Flash started working again. I have updated all my Apps, maybe that helped...

[General Questions and Answers] AmbientChaos:
In the email app, each account has a setting for how much email to sync. For example, one week, one month, and all.

Assuming a non POP3 account, what is the difference between the specified options? I thought it was a cutoff, e.g. you'll only see 1 weeks worth of emails. Yet while my email account is only syncing one week's worth of emails, I can see emails from a year ago up to now without issues.

This makes me think that while it has a cutoff, for older emails only email headers are pulled and the content and attachments aren't downloaded.

Could someone please shed some light on the behavior of the email app?

Hey,

I have the LG G3 D855.

Phone info > Hardware info says:

Model number LG-D855

16GB

Phone info > Software info says:

Android version 4.4.2

Baseband version MPSS.DI.2.0.1.c1.13-00009-M8974AAAAANPZM-1.01701338.5067.1

Kernel version 3.4.0

Build number KVT49L.A1412000029

Software version V10l-262-02

According to IMEI, it's A6D2TN, it's vodafone germany I guess.

I don't have LTE option.

First, I tried the 3845#*855# option - I can get 4g but naturally it doesn't last.

So, I tried to delete the apk - I needed root for that so I rooted with purple drake lite (stump didn't work) and tried that - didn't work either, I had no LTE option.

I figured I'd flash another ROM with different software version and that'll be it so I installed the bump TWRP.

Next, after full TWRP backup, I tried to flash Last Firmware Stock (TWPR) << D855-10N>>.

The flash went fine but after the phone rebooted, I got a message that the phone process crashed. I couldn't get rid of it, even after pressing OK it keeps popping, another few reboots didn't help.

So, I tried AndroidNow HD 2.0.

Same result. Lucky I had the backup so I just reverted to it.

So, I guess I'm missing something that prevents me from installing ROMs...

Anyone has any idea?

I'd appreciate any leads/ideas/links/whatever...

Small update:

I managed to get 4G LTE working.

I edited /system/build.prop. Here's what I did:

*** Note - it worked for me, I take no responsibility if you brick/bootloop your device!! ***

*** Note 2 - You need root to accomplish this ***

Copy the original build.prop file to a safe location (say the external SD card)

Upload the original build.prop to your computer. I used Dropbox to sync it. Fast and simple.

On your computer, make a duplicate of the original file, just to be on the safe side.

Now, edit the original file. I used Notepad++. Find the line ro.telephony.default_network. On my file, this line was in comment, so if it is in yours, first remove the '#' at the beginning of the line. Then, change the value to 12. The default on mine was 9.

Save the file. Dropbox will sync it again.

Download the edited file from Dropbox and put it in your /system folder to replace the original. Use whatever file manager you like that has root privileges.

make sure the build.prop file has permissions 644 ( or rw-r--r--).

Check if now you have the LTE option in the mobile networks menu.

If you don't - try putting in a value of 11 or 13 instead of 12.

I still can't flash custom ROM, but since I wanted to flash in order to get 4G LTE in the first place, I'm fine with it.

Curious why I can't flash, but fine with it :)

Hope it helps someone...

And if someone has input on the issue of flashing a custom ROM - I'd be very happy to hear about it!
