The one from March 4th is the most up to date, but some are using Beta #3 for stability reasons. Personally, I'm on march 4th and its okay. For battery life, if you disable "always on screen" in the settings app of your watch you should notice a huge difference, although it isn't as convenient.

Tizen mod 3.0 is way better than andriod wear! Everything works and when you add icon pack, its looks awesome;) Just my opinion, love this watch[emoji2]
[Samsung Gear 2] speedme:
Which icon pack did you use ?

And what watchface is that ?

How did you install them ?
[Samsung Gear 2] Alxoom33:
That's great! How do you install it on my Nexus 6, LOL!

There is a thread in gear 2 neo development! Tizen 3.0 mod and the other is AIO 1 click mods! Just follow instructions exactly;)
[Samsung Gear 2] daroota:
I'm pretty sure the Tizen mod 3.0 still will only work with Samsung phones and since 2015/Android 5.x.x we haven't been about to hack the gear manager to work on our phones with the gear 2/neo.

If I am wrong please link the thread that explains that it does work (still currently) and I'd be more than happy to be wrong.

That only tells me how to run the Tizen 3.0, and run the AIO. And in the Tizen thread it is followed by the last year of ... How do we get this to work... And it's not working on marshmallow.

The AIO thread is basically a one click from PC to watch to get the software installed. Gear manager (which is the issue) won't run correctly on newer non Samsung phones in order to pair and utilize the watch's full functionality, (unless your still running 4.4.x or lower)

Could you fill in any blanks?

Yes.... I am with speedme.....what and how did you get these icons etc?

Are you pairing with a non Samsung phone?

That was my reason for shifting to this build.
[Samsung Gear 2] Goody68:
The watch face is

Day Star Watch lV and the icon pack i used was rounded S5;)
[Samsung Gear 2] daroota:
That would be why it's working. He is using a Samsung phone.

This option isn't going to work on other Androids or even Samsung's with 3rd party ROMs! So lets stay on topic please for what this thread is about, unless you have found a way to load with non Samsung ROMs, or can contribute with the Android wear build which this thread is about. Thanks
[Samsung Gear 2] Alxoom33:
The S5 phone you are using, last time I checked was a Samsung TouchWiz phone. This thread is for people on non-samsung phones, or on samsung phones not running touch-wiz...So, unfortunately your observations are not relevant to the people on this thread.
[Samsung Gear 2] Goody68:
Last time i checked, this is the Gear 2 forum;) and my post was regarding the Gear 2! Have a good day[emoji2]
[Samsung Gear 2] speedme:
Not correct....this thread was initially for the Android Wear port for our Gear 2 (Neo). But since the development of the Android Wear post (by Biktor_g) is stopped, people are talking now about whether to use this port or use the TizenMod 3.0.

As far as I know, the TizenMod 3.0 doesn't indeed work on non-Samsung phones.

Although Samsung has put the Gear Manager (used to connect the Gear 2 with the phone) on the Google Play Store.

So theoretically it should work.

Maybe, if you don't see the Gear Manager in the Play Store, you need to change the build.prop to match a Samsung phone.

Otherwise there is only 1 option for non-Samsung phone owners : install the AW port for the Gear 2.
[Samsung Gear 2] dersie:
Not correct ;) Samsung Gear Manager on PlayStore is Only for Gear S2,S3 and Gear Fit2. Theorically also for Gear S but not works with the "S".
[Samsung Gear 2] jtcnb:
I sent you an PM
[Samsung Gear 2] speedme:
I already have it such a long time, that I'm not sure.

But I think I have downloaded it from the Play Store on my Samsung S7 and use it to connect my Gear 2.

Again : not sure....
[Samsung Gear 2] dersie:
The Playstore version are very recent. There was added for the GearS2 maybe one year ago.

Recently, Samsung added a "standard" version with a pluging for the GearFit2 and for the GearS, maybe few weeks ago ? I tried the S pluging but nerver worked for the GearS. Recently Samsung added a new time the S3 compatibility.

The Playstore description say Gear "S3/S2/Fit2" so never worked for Gear1 or Gear2.
[Samsung Gear 2] Alxoom33:
Sorry, I didn't mean to be obnoxious to you. Just we are talking apples and oranges. Now if there was a way of using Tizen with the Gear 2 and connecting to a non-Samsung phone, then you would have something!
[Samsung Gear 2] librapt:
I am very sad to see, that biktor_gj stopped developing the port, especially with AW 2.0 rolling out in February. I am studying software engineering and willing to try continuing his work, problem is, I don't know the first thing about porting...
[Samsung Gear 2] Goody68:
Sorry to ruffle some feathers, but the OP says nothing about using this with non- samsung phones, just porting android wear to the gear 2/Neo!!!! Im a flashaholic and have tried many ports etc. We all look for one that most to all features work and i was just giving my opinion on the tizen 3.0 with mods is the best option with all features working and a great new look;) And i do believe you can connect to non samung phones on tizen 3.0 if im not mistaken! Read the OP of tizen 3.0 thread!

[Samsung Gear 2] daroota:
Press and hold the button until it reboots, then press the button 5 times quickly to bring up the menu. Press the button to move the selected to recovery, long press to select. This should get you into TWRP. Do a factory wipe and restart the watch.

in Android wear app forget the watch and re-pair it.

How to upload files on the watch? with the computer.

the computer does not detect the watch.
[Samsung Gear 2] ProFragger:
Guys I know this thread is dead, but I'll try asking any way:

1. If I'm using a phone with Marshmallow, is it true I can't use the watch until it has MM version on it as well? Can't find the watch in my Android Wear app with my Axon 7 Marshmallow build. Worked fine on LG V10 Lollipop.

2. If # 1 is true... Can someone link me the latest, best working MM build that OP released? I know the one in Post # 1 is not the latest?

Thanks!

P.S. What a great thing it will be if some developer picks this project up, now with speaker and phone support in AW! Seems like the GitHub link is there as well for the code and repo?
[Samsung Gear 2] Alxoom33:
I don't think that's true. The OP is up to date and all ports are listed, as far as I know and I've followed this thread since its inception.
[Samsung Gear 2] dersie:
No, wear version is not related to phone android version.
[Samsung Gear 2] ProFragger:
Thanks bud, I really, really thought the OP had a version of MM floating around in the thread somewhere, than the one in OP.

You're right, thank you so much! Just had to do a factory reset on my watch. Call notifications still don't work, but I'll take what I can get :(... thanks!

[Samsung Gear 2] gleb.osotov:

[Samsung Gear 2] jboucher614:
Probably never. Development has stopped, unless someone has picked it up that I haven't heard about.
[Samsung Gear 2] librapt:
No, sadly the development stopped. Reading all the comments, I highly doubt there would be someone to take over. :crying:
[Samsung Gear 2] pizza_pablo:
That is the version I have been using.

If I remember correctly, it is the second to last build.

I cannot recall if it's a beta or not.
[Samsung Gear 2] jboucher614:
I'm on the latest beta, its not the one I'm on so you're probably right. Latest beta is google play services 10.x
[Samsung Gear 2] Ev0luti0n_:
This is the best version ever. Don't use the latest one, as it's buggy and consumes a lot of battery. If you use a Bluetooth headphone and then switch to the internal speaker, the audio works for a bit although with a lot of distortion and then stops. Meaning we almost had it working... Almost...
[Samsung Gear 2] kaos420:
but what version was it. 5?
[Samsung Gear 2] Alxoom33:
Beta #3 Zenwatch based, is the best build. It is the second to the last build in the OP.

At least, that's the one that I use as my dd.

The final build was more experimental and while it was a littlle more advanced was buggy and the battery drain made it almost unusable. Then unfortunatly development stopped.
[Samsung Gear 2] kaos420:
Wasn't asking best build. Was asking what build was in picture. Was answered already.

Hi,

I got a gear 2 for a very good price, because its battery is supposed to be dying. However I'm not sure its the battery anymore, as the device is always semi-hot to the touch. I have installed android wear, have taken a look at the CPU temperature in AIDA which reads about 47-48 degrees celsius. Can someone check their CPU temperature for comparison please?

Edit: After letting it rest for a while it idles at around 35C, something is still making it eat the battery and get warm to the touch. Or I'm just paranoid and the battery is actually dead. However I imagine in that scenario it would charge to 100% pretty quickly and then drain. This one's charge rate is about 1%/30 minutes which makes me think something is sucking electricity while charging.
[Samsung Gear 2] DanJackson:
Mine holds around 30
[Samsung Gear 2] Alxoom33:
I saw an unbranded smartwatch that looked a lot like our Gear 2, but it did not require a charging port. Micro USB plugged in directly to a port on the side of the watch. It had the camera and speakerphone which they say work. The ad said it was compatible with the iPhone, HTC, Samsung and several other Android brands.

Any ideas? Perhaps these are repurposed Gear 2's that Samsung did not purchase.

So I bought it for $24 US, although there was an identical ad for $26 US. Both with free shipping and a choice of silver or gold bezel. I'm curious if it is Tizen or Android Wear based OS. As long as it does not require OSX or Touch wiz to operate I'll be happy. I will report back when the watch arrives and I attempt to link it to my Nexus 6 and Android Wear 2.0
[Samsung Gear 2] dersie:
No, just crap watch like No1 G2. Just same aspect but a specific OS with 0 app and 0 possibility ;)
[Samsung Gear 2] Alxoom33:
Did you purchase/try the watch? Are you sure? It was on a mark-down website marked down from $99. If it is that bad, I can retrain it within 30 days of delivery. For $24 I can't be too disappointed...[emoji13]
[Samsung Gear 2] dersie:
Not this watch but I have few watch of this kind, just same case than Gear 2 but very bad. Nothing to do with any real smartwatch :(
[Samsung Gear 2] jboucher614:
These are HIGHLY likely to be chinese knockoffs (fakes). It will not run android wear, it will not run any port of android wear. It is not Samsung either. Its probably running regular android based on my guess.
[Samsung Gear 2] Alxoom33:
Well, I guess I'll find out. Our Gear 2 is way past being EOL. $24 is not too much to see if there is an inexpensive alternative.

I don't need to buy an Apple Watch :)

Thanks! You made me save buying an Apple Watch.

I received an iPhone as a gift (otherwise I wouldn't pass from Android to iOS) and I was faced with a problem: I was very used with my smartwatch, it was very comfortable to read the notifications, answer the phone calls and use the fitness trackers, but there was no way to connect my Samsung Gear 2 Neo to the new iPhone. You can connect it directly to the bluetooth, but you can only receive phone calls on it. So I thought I have to buy a new one... But which one? Seems there are many smartwatches which are compatible with the iPhone, some of them are expensive, some of them are cheap. I had the opportunity to try a Samsung Gear S2, but I was disappointed... I read on various websites opinions about it and came to the conclusion that the most suitable, if you want to use all the features, is to get an Apple Watch, all the others have many limitations on iOS.

But fortunately I arrived to this forum, where I discovered I can, with no cost, make my old good Gear 2 Neo read all the notifications from the iPhone and probably much more.

While installing I had a problem: I tried to connect the watch to two PCs and none of them was not recognising it, so the drivers were not installed automaticaly and Odin did not see my watch. The solution I found (maybe somebody else has the same problem) was to download and install manually the drivers. I found them here: devid . info / 237205 ( remove the spaces, I wrote it like this because it is my first post and I can't post links)

After that all went smooth, except that after the install it was saying that Google App stopped, so I had to go into recovery and reset it again, and after it worked without any issues. I was able to connect it to my iPhone using Android Wear app and now I can change the faces, read notifications, and something new: use Google Now.

I didn't have time to check all the features and the fitness trackers, I was so happy that I made immediately a donation to biktor_gj and wrote this post!

I hope the battery duration will not change, because it was lasting for 3 days, which is 3 times better than the Apple Watch, Samsung Gear S2, and others...

Thanks!

I think you will need to enable the proxy to see the UID of the requester. Then it will continue. Or you have to disable it.

How about sending CHECKIN_COMPLETE broadcast to GMS Core? Or just fully remove the Google Services like the Chinese do?

BTW the ro.config.nocheckin needs to be added in build.prop and reboot. Don't use setprop.

I dont know how logical what i am going to ask is in regards to the current predicament,

But i dont have the hardware to test my theory (maybe i can try it on a vm)

What data is changes/saved etc... the moment after first pairing is successful ?

what User or System data is written or altered at the end of the process...

maybe it can be used to trick the watch to advance to the state where it thinks it has already been synced with a Android device that is simply not in range at the moment.

I suggest this from very little practical knowledge of such an effort, so its only based on theoretical ideation.

but if it makes sense and might have a 0.0001 chance of helping its worth writing
[Samsung Gear 2] kavinzhao:
You didn't understand. The watch CAN pair with the device. And network can be shared by USB. It is just the ClockWorkProxy that is causing the problem(closing the TCP connection) .

I believe his assumption was that the process would flip a bit (or a few...) after the initial check in, something we could reproduce
[Samsung Gear 2] biktor_gj:
When there's a will there's a way...

If it won't work online, let's put it offline. I backed up the emulator's userdata partition and put it in the watch. Fair enough, now I see the time and the shell. It shows up as disconnected, and nothing works obviously, but now I can debug in peace.

By the way, I couldn't see the bluetooth crashing in the background because it was doing it silently. I transplanted some parts of the emulator image and now I can see where it dies in terrible pain ;)

Hopefuly I can fix it now!

What I still don't understand is how it can turn bluetooth on, pair a device, and send the test messages, but then dies when linking for the rest...

Edit: I... I think it's not switching between low power mode and normal mode... maybe that's what's been happening all the time? need more testing...
[Samsung Gear 2] kavinzhao:
Can you post the userdata partition image? I don't have 4.4W's image in my emulator. At least that will get the watch to work, and you are almost succeed.
