I don't know if there is something I'm missing but I've tried it on multiple lollipop roms and had it not work. I've tried installing different kernels to get it to work and that was somewhat successful, except for the fact that when I installed any other kernel I lost use of both WiFi and Mobile data. I also softbricked my phone once but that's besides the point :D

I've just installed the new SPB Mobile shell... excellent! Makes the device so much easier to use with one hand! Question though... is there a skin / tweak i can install into WMP to make the library text / menu easier to use with your fingers? i.e bigger and better looking, and easier to scroll.

Thanks!

I was recently told how I can turn recommendations off per app, but after i turn them all off there is still a row on the top, it just says it can't find recommendations now. Pretty dumb.

Anyone know how to get rid of the row or how to change the order of the applications? Seems like we need a new launcher from Nova team or something.

Edit: Change the order of the applications in the application row, not like the order of recommendation apps.
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Harkunwar:
I wasn't able to do so yet :/
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sstdk:
Yes, you can reorder the apps but it requires root. Basically, you need to extract /data/data/com.google.android.leanbacklauncher/databases/launcher.db, copy it to somewhere with an sqlite3 binary and the manipulate the 'entity_score' column in the 'entity' table.

This is what it looks like by default (excerpt):

Notice how certain big-name media apps are magically ordered high out of the box - even though I have never had these installed?

Anyway, let's say that I want the Kodi icon to be presented very early on, say around where Netflix lives. Simple:

Now exit sqlite3, push the updated launcher.db to the device (make sure it has the same ownership and permissions as before), kill the leanback launcher or just reboot and behold your new launcher order.

Nope, it's got 3 keyboards. Standard qwerty, "Gear" qwerty that does some predictive typing, and numeric.

OK the other poster said it's not there as well I forgot which one he had AT&T I think but he said he emailed Fleksy and he ll see what excuse they give him :)
[Samsung Gear S] jmacdonald19:
Good times... I'd like to have a smarter keyboard :)
[Samsung Gear S] cbdudek:
Whats the monthly cost of this? That is the only thing keeping me from buying it. I really don't think it is worth having to shell out $10 a month.

I found this on Verizon's site....

Connected Device Line Access on More Everything Plans: $5

© 2014 Samsung Telecommunications America, LLC. Samsung Gear S is a trademark of Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd

The $5 is at least palatable. I don't have a More Everything Plan though. I am still on a grandfathered unlimited plan, so they might push me to move to a new plan if I paid full price for it. I think I am going to hold off and see how the reviews look and if I can get it for $5 a month on my existing plan if I pay full price.
[Samsung Gear S] Uniquebarbee:
Sounds like a plan if you pay full price you should be able to get the 5$ plan I believe they try to push you off the Unlimited if you sign the contract paying full price you can always cancel the plan later. But your grandfathered in so they should make you a good deal
[Samsung Gear S] myisf08:
+1. I ordered mine this morning. Should be here tomorrow before noon. Reading the manual now to kill some time. So stoked!

Unique - What's the word? Are you holding out until Sunday or did you order your watch already?
[Samsung Gear S] Uniquebarbee:
Debating if I should keep my Gear 2 or go see if AT&T has any more to just cash out I love my IR blaster and my camera/video
[Samsung Gear S] Mhotep06:
Said 5 bucks for me.
[Samsung Gear S] myisf08:
Hmm...decisions decisions! I think AT&T is calling you! Good luck!
[Samsung Gear S] Uniquebarbee:
:fingers-crossed: thanks
[Samsung Gear S] cbdudek:
I have a Gear 2 as well right now so I am not in any rush.

I will pay attention to the reviews. If they are favorable AND I can retain my plan and get it for $5 a month, then I will probably pull the trigger eventually.

If anyone here has an unlimited data plan and isn't on the "more everything" plan, and gets the Gear S, let me know if you still can get this for $5 a month as an addon. I haven't heard anyone try to add one of these devices on an unlimited plan. Will they try to change your plan? So many questions, and these will be answered in time.
[Samsung Gear S] Atticus21:
I just ordered one. I have to Jones it till Monday! I should have ordered one 1st thing this AM but I called around to Brick and Mortars and then I got busy. I would have liked to play with it over the weekend...I guess I waited 46 years for it so far...3 days more won't kill me....

[Samsung Gear S] Uniquebarbee:
LOL sounds good gives you time to read the reviews and see if anything is wrong by then or read the manual kills time:D

---------- Post added at 08:51 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:50 PM ----------

5$ for the plan do you have to make payments on the watch? or just buy it outright in your case
[Samsung Gear S] Atticus21:
Just to follow up...

I ordered from Verizon online...Free overnight shipping...So I'll get it Monday (today is a Friday). I called a Verizon store they only had one and BestBuy stores in the area did know what I was talking about.

I purchased it full price $399 and it added $5 per month to my Everything plan. I figured for 50 bucks I'd rather not be tied to a contract. On contract was $349..

[Samsung Gear S] Uniquebarbee:
This is good welcome aboard :highfive:
[Samsung Gear S] Mhotep06:
Success. Local Verizon store didn't get stock, so I ordered online. Got an email confirmation but a couple of hours later got email saying it had been qued and would ship in 3-4 days. Called Greensboro store to see if they got stock and was told no. Called Sprint and one store got on in and it sold already. So had to drive to Greensboro for something else so at last minute on my way back home at 8pm decided to go to Verizon to at least look at one. Got to store and told them what I was there for and the lady said they actually had two in stock! Sales guy came out and said the person that was supposed to buy them just called and said she couldn't make it so they were able to sell me one. . Just got home and love it. They had to activate it by connecting it to a note 4 in the store.
[Samsung Gear S] sbrownla:
Don't pay more than $299!

I got mine from AT&T, no hassle, just in and out, $299 today ($329 with tax). They're going QUICKLY! There's no reason anyone should waste any more than the AT&T price, unless you really can't wait.

But if you're going to take the plunge, do it soon! I drove an hour and a half to get mine and guess what?

Worth every penny!

Your solution is to stay on unlimited data plan and add this as a new device. It has it's own plan and phone number. AFAIK the minimum is $25/month.

---------- Post added at 09:12 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:12 AM ----------

My goal is to buy one next week.
[Samsung Gear S] curtrahmel:
I went into the store yesterday and purchased mine. Just to clear the air on some confusion people are having. The verizon gear DOES NOT have sim slot and neither does the sprint version. They are different devices from the att and t-mobile devices and that's the reason for difference in price. (different radios) I'm pretty sure I could have purchased the att and it would have worked fine, but I'd rather not have a plan on 2 different carriers. (personal preference) The setup is easy and I was up and running in 10 mins after purchase. I I'm putting it through its paces this weekend so if there is anything yall want to know feel free to ask and I will try it out..
[Samsung Gear S] Uniquebarbee:
What plan did you get did you buy it outright or the 2 year contract. do you have a seperate number for your watch
[Samsung Gear S] curtrahmel:
I purchased it outright. I was put on a month to month connected device plan for $5 a month. You will get a separate number for the device, but you can setup call and message forwarding in the settings. Most Verizon plans include call forwarding so there is no extra charge as some people were worried about.
[Samsung Gear S] Uniquebarbee:
So the 5$ plan how much data is included?
[Samsung Gear S] curtrahmel:
It ties into your existing plan and shares the data. (Everything share plan) By default when connected to your device (Bluetooth) your phone is using the data and routing it to your watch. When away from your phone it connects to the network. It's only 3g so speeds aren't lighting fast but fast enough to check email or even stream music. (It will kill your battery, and will get a little warm)
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
I went into verizon today, I am on Unlimited plan. I was told the only way to add this was to add it as a new line/device at 30/month. Add that to the 100 extra they are charging over att I will either wait for price to drop or maybe buy outright from att and use as wifi/bt only.

Anyone figures out how to add this to a unlimited plan cheaper, please chime in.
[Samsung Gear S] Uniquebarbee:
I DO NOT have Verizon ok so is this the everything plan? if so people are saying they cashed out and was able to pay 5$ a month and combine with the everything plan. or pay 25$ a month. But Verizon ppl chime in
[Samsung Gear S] sbrownla:
Carriers causing problems. There is no reason there couldn't have been one watch that worked with both CDMA and GSM. http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/25/qualcomm-adding-the-kitchen-sink-to-gobi-including-ev-do-rev-a/
[Samsung Gear S] ronaldheld:
I finally got a rep to admit that I could add a device and keep my unlimited data. $25/month for the watch is about what I would pay extra if I went to the everything plan and shared data.
[Samsung Gear S] ronaldheld:
I just went to the VZW site and downloaded the user's manual. Has anyone else done that for their watch?
[Samsung Gear S] myisf08:
Yeah, I found it more informative than the pamphlets that came in the box. Good find.

[Samsung Gear S] p64imp:
Just FYI, i'm also in the unlimited data plan boat and refuse to shell out $25 a month for an extra line. The watch still works 100% as long as your phone is near though (which mine always is). Everything works... data, and even the phone feature (which even allows you to hot swap the call to your phone screen).

With this in place, i wouldnt even use the stand-alone plan anyway. I got the watch to compliment my note 4, not replace it. I always have my phone on me. The wrist features are very handy w/o the need to take my big note4 out of the holster every time i get a notification. I've even found the wrist-phone feature immensely handy as well and works like a charm.

If you got a reg plan, $5 addon is a drop in the bucket. For us legacy vzw unlimited data plan'ers though, forget the plan, get the watch, and tether it to the phone!
[Samsung Gear S] p64imp:
Better yet, get the AT&T watch as well. $100 cheaper! Anyone know if the AT&T watch works fine via bluetooth to a verizon note 4? I'm assuming all will be the same, only radio difference. Right?
[Samsung Gear S] Uniquebarbee:
I believe so :) the carrier you choose only matters if you want to use the STANDALONE watchphone. If not it will act like the Gear 2 with internet
[Samsung Gear S] mi7chy:
If Verizon retail stores won't sell it to you without a plan you can always buy it online through Verizon's iconic portal website but it still sucks that's it's $100 more than AT&T full price:
