That's exactly why I write those enormous post describing what I try and if it works or doesn't. There are a million guides for porting roms from one device to another, but documentation on porting to a new hardware is almost inexistant, if it can be useful for anyone, even if it takes 50 pages of reading, I think it's worth it ;)

About pming me, as long as you dont ask me how to get back to tizen, I have no problem with it. I might reply late, but I try to :)
[Samsung Gear 2] jeffc83:
Biktor, let me know if you need any files from AndroidWear...I got bored and decided to pull everything from the device.. At least I have LOTS of "fun stuff" to sort through now:) Did anyone say "custom boot animations"? Too soon? :cyclops:

I can confirm the pedometer is not functional BUT the app opens fine....like we all didn't know that already;)

Biktor if you put trebuchet on wear and wake it up using am start, things might work. Can you send me your trebuchet apk and I 'll try it.

[Samsung Gear 2] Youdoofus:
i was just telling him how to update the apk. Also, the watch physically does support it as it worked in tizen. And i know the development of the watch stopped as would anyone else who has read the last few pages of this thread
[Samsung Gear 2] sameh1982:
Thanks
[Samsung Gear 2] Pkt_Lnt:
With stock Tizen, yes calling works. With this Android Wear port, no calling does not.

It matters not if the hardware supports it if the software layer cannot communicate with it via the bluetooth stack.

If you revert to Tizen to get calling, then you do not need the new Android Wear app on your phone.
[Samsung Gear 2] Youdoofus:
im fully aware of all 3 of those points. its a shame that the dev's watch died before this stack overflow issue could be resolved. the watch calling is cool, but not cool enough for me to revert
[Samsung Gear 2] dimbo33:
Last night I installed this version GNeo_AndroidWear_2016_0708. It's my first time flashing the watch (although have flashed many a phone over the years).

Having changed to a Galaxy J7 months ago I could no longer use the Neo 2 as it's not compatible with the J7.......

It's great to be able to use it again but I have had quite a few crashes throughout the day ending up in restarts. Also the battery has been draining v quickly even though I have the screen set to turn off.

Would it be worth trying a previous version for greater stability and battery life? If so which version would you recommend?

Would it be worth trying the last 5.1.1?
[Samsung Gear 2] Alxoom33:
I like the prior Beta #3 Zenwatch based version.
[Samsung Gear 2] sameh1982:
thanks
[Samsung Gear 2] dimbo33:
I'll give it a go.

Currently battery drops 14% overnight and has dropped over 15% in last 3 hours with almost no use (and screen off).
[Samsung Gear 2] Alxoom33:
Yeah, I had the same battery problems with the latest version, couldn't last a full day. That's why I reverted, gives me about 50% better battery life, but lesser Android Wear features.
[Samsung Gear 2] dimbo33:
I've flashed the Zenwatch version and it's much more stable for me. No force closes or reboots. Initially battery drop was far lower, but for last 30 minutes something's happened and it's dropping much faster. It's as if it has a wakelock.

Edit: I just realised that it had lost connection to the phone even though I'm right next to it. My guess is this is the problem. Am rebooting both. We'll see.

Edit 2: It seems that turning on location in permissions for maps had a devastating effect on battery consumption. I've turned this off again and battery consumption has dramatically decreased.
[Samsung Gear 2] Youdoofus:
so, my weather stopped updating on the watch. It says its perennially 73 degrees outside. It works fine for the first couple days after a factory reset, but then just stops. I dont have greenify stopping bluetooth services or anything like that. Kinda perplexed here
[Samsung Gear 2] Alxoom33:
Which rom are you running?
[Samsung Gear 2] Youdoofus:
Moar 7.0

i flashed the march release in Odin last night and it seems to be working so far, but it did that after the other release for a couple days too. So i guess we'll see how it goes :D

Hello

I install last version Gear2_Wear6_Rel6 in my gear neo, fisrt wipe and after install and battery drain totaly, 2 hour to charge and 2 hour to discharge.

I connect to galaxy s7 with 6.01

I don´t know if any process in gear drain or what is the problem, but i install tizen and 2 days, install wear 2 and again, 2 hours.

Help please
[Samsung Gear 2] Alxoom33:
Why not go back?
[Samsung Gear 2] darkons2001:
I don´t go back because a want android wear,

I k´now if i have tizen and have 2 days of battery the problem is in android wear.

I don´t know what process or what is the problem to take, or "eat" all battery in 2 hours
[Samsung Gear 2] speedme:
Android Wear is more battery consuming than Tizen.

If you have 2 days battery life on Tizen, you have about 1 day (50%) battery life in Android Wear.

But the latest release of this AW port seems to be more battery consuming than the March release.

So try flashing the March release (rel6)
[Samsung Gear 2] Youdoofus:
because android wear ftw!!!

I get approx the same battery life with all the releases that ive flashed with the same level of usage (minus the on watch calls). Id wipe via recovery and reflash the android wear ROM in Odin. Unless your battery is bad, then you shoulnt be getting this bad of battery life unless the screen is full-on for the entire 2 hours
[Samsung Gear 2] Ev0luti0n_:
Yes... Reverting back to the ''rel6'' solves the drain problem and brings back many watch faces that were removed (I wonder why?)". I had to go back and will not update
[Samsung Gear 2] darkons2001:
I think I've located the problem , by default the option is enabled display always on, and changed the option turned off , then incredibly This option enables battery drain.

In the screenshot can see battery down suddenly and after when I active screen on drain stops and is more "normal"

But i think normal is screen off and when i can see anything hand turn and screens automatly on.

And the recomended version is Gear2_Wear6_Rel6.tar and what is the watch face recommended better to battery ?
[Samsung Gear 2] sameh1982:
Which is better with battery 5.x.x or 6.0 ?? And i canot find rel 6 download link
[Samsung Gear 2] Ev0luti0n_:
The watch face doesn't matter for battery, as far as I know. And the download link for that build guys are talking about here, is on ''alvaromartinez'' videos on YouTube. Search for his name. The links are in the description.
[Samsung Gear 2] sameh1982:
alvaromartinez roms had alot of bugs..biktor gj is the best
[Samsung Gear 2] bishop0114:
Is this ROM still in development? It works pretty well, just wondered if there will be anything new released.

Also, for those with battery drain, I found if I turn off Touch Wake in the Gear Settings, the battery lasts nearly 3 days.

About every 3 to 4 days, it stops getting notifications and have to reboot the watch. The setting doesn't stick after a reboot, so I just set it again.

Only anoying bug I have found is that part of the time when trying to use the speech recognition, it just gives an error that it can't reach the cloud.
[Samsung Gear 2] Youdoofus:
yeah, i turn the always-on immediately off when i connect it to my phone
[Samsung Gear 2] Alxoom33:
But I like that feature. Not as much a problem in the prior version.

---------- Post added at 11:09 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:08 PM ----------

Yes, I have done the same a while back. I also like the watch faces in this version, much more.

[Samsung Gear 2] Alxoom33:
Link?
[Samsung Gear 2] Ev0luti0n_:
https://youtu.be/oF4zfKQhGPg

The links for the rom and drivers are in the description. Anybody else uses his version? I remember once being able to hear the ongoing call from the watch but the sound was very bad. I presumed it was the audio codec or some software issue?

Nonetheless, asked Alvaro and he said ''we were close to having it working''

Then next release came out with the battery drain and never tried it properly
[Samsung Gear 2] Alxoom33:
Thank you, I know where the links are for this rom, as I have been using it on my gear 2 since inception. I was asking about the links to [MENTION=223509]alvaro[/MENTION]'s rom, that was mentioned above.
[Samsung Gear 2] speedme:
Alvaro never had his own ROM, the one he is talking about in the video is this ROM from [MENTION=803006]biktor_gj[/MENTION]

Biktor has stopped developing this ROM, due to personal reasons (no time anymore, as he became a father) and the fact that his Gear 2 Neo broke down for good and he doesn't have a device anymore to test with.

But he has left us his legacy in the form of all the files he worked with.

So any very good developer can pick up his work, if they want.

Unfortunately I'm not a developer, not do I have the time to become one.
[Samsung Gear 2] Ev0luti0n_:
Thanks for clarifying that
[Samsung Gear 2] speedme:
I have installed AW the same day I received my Gear 2 and lately the battery went down pretty fast.

I was lucky if I could do a weekend on 1 battery charge (from Friday 5 PM until Monday 9 AM).

So for comparison I flashed Tizen back (TizenMod 3.0), also to see if I would like Tizen over AW.

Now I have, with the same battery of course, a battery life of 4 days and still 20% left.

I took my Gear 2 from the charger on Friday at 5 PM and now (Tuesday 9 AM) I still have 20% left.

I use the watch exactly the same, maybe even played a little more with it as Tizen is new to me.

So I can say from experience that Tizen is way more battery-friendly than Android Wear.

I think I am going to stick to Tizen for a while, as it can do everything I want it to do and as bonus I now have a better battery life + working camera.
[Samsung Gear 2] mikle_01:
And the possibility, to make and receive calls...:D

Thanks for that confrontation AW <-> Tizen!! Wow....4 days with on charge - couldn't remember!?;)
[Samsung Gear 2] speedme:
+1

Yes, that's also a plus :)

The only small negative point, as I see it now, is that there are not so many good watchfaces available for Tizen.

I'm still learning how to optimize my Tizen based Gear 2, but so far I'm pretty happy with switching to Tizen.
[Samsung Gear 2] pera987:
Tabs good if you're having Samsung phone, rest of us can't use it with tizen ..
[Samsung Gear 2] Alxoom33:
I don't believe I can use tizen with my Nexus 6. That's why I switched to AW and biktor's ROM in the first place.

hello, after try a lot of roms of android wear, all have problem if screen switch off to inactivity battery drain, and if not switch off screen battery have arround 12 hours of life.

I want roll back to tizen, but now, install rom (downloaded to sammovile) tizen but when restart gear don´t load nothing, screen is off and don´t work.

After install tizen rom i try to go recovery but doesn´t show nothing i don´t have recovery !!??

I don´t know if i put only a recovery to do a wipe and maybe rom starts.

When tizen don´t start i flash android wear again and recovery work, do wipe and load android wear, but... when I have tizen battery have 2 days or more !!

help please
[Samsung Gear 2] speedme:
Flash the file in OP, Biktor has explained very well how to flash (even with video from Youtube) TizenMod.

That is all you need.

I did the same thing this week, so I know it works very well.
[Samsung Gear 2] darkons2001:
When i flash tizen aparently all works, first message after reboot "do not turn off target!" appears but second message "performing factory data reset. please wait..." this never can see it.

Do you have video link of flash by biktor. ? maybe i don´t put any wipe or option...
[Samsung Gear 2] Ev0luti0n_:
So, the question that we should be asking is.. ''is there any chance of tizen syncing with android?
[Samsung Gear 2] Alxoom33:
No, they are 2 very different Operating Systems.
[Samsung Gear 2] Pkt_Lnt:

I was issuing battery drain with the last beta, less than 12h. But now it's gone...

I let the watch charging during 3 days.(I was sick) And after that the watch is having a very good battery life about 1day and 8h... Now I have 38% and 10h left.

I didn't change anything screen always ON is OFF and twist to wake up is ON.

[Samsung Gear 2] Alxoom33:
the Zenwatch version.
[Samsung Gear 2] treezy26:

[Samsung Gear 2] Alxoom33:
That would be a No Go for me. The ZenWatch version was second to last. February 2016 I believe.

Go into the phone's Wear App and forget any prior AW devices. Then do a factory reset on the watch in TWRP and reeboot, set the phone AW app to connect to your watch and follow the instructions on the screen. There is a helpful video in the OP.

Hello All.

I am new to the Android Wear scene.....have had my Gear 2 for about two years now..... made the plunge and installed this version of Android Wear and the only issue I have is with battery life. I use a Samsung S6 Edge Plus.... have installed a few watch faces etc.

When the watch was on Tizen, I would normally get 3 days use or so, and it was not that hard of a drain on my phone battery. With Android Wear 6., I am not getting 24hrs from the watch and noticed a difference as well on my phone.

Are there any programs I should uninstall limit access to that would give me better battery performance?

Also, my contacts from my phone will not sync with my watch.....is this a common problem?

Oh, I see Android Wear 6 is the most up to date... which would it be of these?

GNeo_AndroidWear_2016_0708 , Gear2_Android_Wear6_2016_02_18 or Gear2_Wear6_Rel6.tar.

Thanks to you all for your Great work and commitment in helping one another.
