The worst thing is I should've known better, I always keep backups and backups of backups because I don't trust anything but I was running out of space on my home server and the same week I cleaned up the server the disk decided to give up after a storm took out the lights a couple of times while I was out. Even worse, I first had to move the virtual disk drive off the ssd because it didn't fit... Well, now I have a lot of free space to start over :)

Sorry to hear about you losing your HD data.

Should this September 24th build be placed in the OP though? Last one posted is from August 13th.
[Samsung Gear 2] joe_modo:
I'm sorry to hear about your data loss. I know from experience just how devastating this can be. Try your best not to let it effect you personally... such a huge set-back made me very depressed. One thing I did learn while trying to rebuild projects from the ground up, it's much easier the second time around, since all the problems have already been run into, and even though recall can be an issue, it is all up in your head somewhere! Can't corrupt that drive! (Well, you can, but... drugs are bad mmkay!)

I wish you the best, and like I said, don't let it get you down, let it be a motivator!! I learned that way too late after, hopefully my words can help you so you don't fall into a funk like I did.

Google Glass Image for the Gear 2? Hmm??? The idea sounds funny
[Samsung Gear 2] biktor_gj:
I thought it would be interesting to see how it looked on the watch :)
[Samsung Gear 2] tooandrew:
[MENTION=803006]biktor_gj[/MENTION] the Google glass image, Is that something that is in the works? I've been hoping to try that for a while. Back with the gear one on null Rom I installed the glass launcher. Most of it didn't work, but I would have been very excited to use it if it had, very excited indeed.
[Samsung Gear 2] biktor_gj:
I didn't manage to get it to fully boot as I was still missing a library or too and it was a little bit involved to insrall(had to manually push all the TTS data to the data partition because the system image is about 600mb in size) but I can do it again if you want ;)

does shazam work with this new build? also i have problems with iheart radio not showing on the watch to change the song. it stays all black if both are normal then cool.
[Samsung Gear 2] sparklekid:
Not sure if you've figured it out yet, but this is a problem with Android Wear as I found out here: https://www.reddit.com/r/AndroidWear/comments/316qry/google_fit_not_use_phones_sensors/. Ways to address this is to uninstall Google Fit from your phone, which will unpair your watch's Google Fit and re-enable the options menu so that it works as a step counter. I followed the path of other Android Wear users and ditched Google Fit and use the Jawbone Up app instead, which pairs nicely with the Neo. I'm not into the idea of taking my phone on my runs and using Up helps tremendously.

How can i flash it with Odin ?

Thx
[Samsung Gear 2] ragzz03:
does anyone know how to boot to bootloader on aug13th build?? Or maybe how to add the new file to a location on thewatch so I can flash through recovery if thats working??

thanks in advance.
[Samsung Gear 2] WerWolv:
As always. Turn the watch on, then hold the front button until it shows 'Rebooting...'. Then press the front button about 5 times. You should come to the Bootloader menu where you can choose the option with a short press and confirm with a long press.

Btw, these kind of questions belong in the Q&A-Thread. This one is only for development related questions.
[Samsung Gear 2] 10k35h:
I have the 8-13 tar package installed over my gear2 neo via Odin . Can I download the new version (zip file 9-24) and flash it over twrp recovery on my watch or do i have to use Odin again ? I'm sorry if this is a trivial question but a yes or no would really help me as I'm new to development of smart watches. Thank you!
[Samsung Gear 2] kambus:
The the zip file (9-24) contains a tar file. So you need odin.

Slightly off topic::

anyone else notice that double pressing 'the side button' instantly activates theater mode?

Pretty cool, man..
[Samsung Gear 2] Coltraneagain:
....And triple pressing increases bright to maximum.

Thanks to the developer.

I was doubting between changing to Android or staying in Tizen. And personal conclusion is, Android makes your device a real smart device.

Just expecting for calls became possible.

[Samsung Gear 2] vsamuel:
Help....I downloaded this from the original software on my Neo 2. How can I make calls on the watch like before without sending the call to the device? That's the main reason I chose this device. Please help.
[Samsung Gear 2] emuandco:
By switching back to Tizen. Thats the one and only thing where Tizen is better than Android Wear. (still) I am quitre sure some reading before flashing the sh*t out of your devices would be a nice idea too... Flashaholic is not bad, but doing it blindly IS! This was said in here about 28376294 times that calling is not working with Wear by design. New ones maybe, but not yet
[Samsung Gear 2] kambus:
Can it be that the battery indicator is not very accurate? Sometimes the percentage does not seem to sink, and the next moment are at a single stroke 20 percent.

[Samsung Gear 2] speedme:
I don't have this problem and actually the battery life is quite good

(1,5 days with screen on).

You can try to delete the battery stats in Recovery.

And do a battery calibration after that.
[Samsung Gear 2] flatherskevin:
One thing that I have noticed is that battery life tanked with the newest update. I'm curious to see if it's because I am still on KitKat. I have an AT&T GS5 which has a locked bootloader that no one has fixed, and Tizen Lollipop looks like it blows. I am going to do another install and full wipe and see what comes of it. Will update when complete and tested for a bit.
[Samsung Gear 2] rob419:
My Battery Life: ~15hrs; with brightness at 2, gesture wake up, watchmaker premium with 3 'complications': (current temp, weather, watch battery %). Google play music streaming for 6-7hrs. 15-20 emails/txts per hour. Google cards set at: large, not opaque, not persistent background.

Would like better batt life, but this is an acceptable trade-off for the functionality of A.Wear.

I work construction, so it wakes up a lot. But, question: what watch face/app do you run to get that life? Especially with always on?

That being said,,, I'm still happier than anything about having Wear on my neo!

Thank you, again, biktor.
[Samsung Gear 2] speedme:
I've tested several watchfaces, but they are all too bright in ambient mode.

I'm using now the standard watchface "Dark analog" which consumes very little energy from the battery.

But seeing what you do with your Gear 2, I believe your battery life is very good!

I don't do that much as you, just receive several notifications per day.

I use odyssey and iclocki i get a day and a half as well . Brightness at 6. Set off and to come on with wrist motion

Sent from my 0x1 Note 3...... I love tep
[Samsung Gear 2] flatherskevin:
As promised, here are my results. Always screen on - on, wrist gestures off, wifi off, debug off, touch to wake off, wrist motion to turn screen on off. Getting about 10hr (maybe if I'm lucky) of battery life. Brightness are all about medium values. No intense watch faces or anything. Also, whenever I get an email my neo freezes with a black screen until open it on my phone. User interface is just altogether glitchy. I had none of these issues on the Aug 13 build and also had amazing battery life then. I have noticed that the Google app and the android wear app run hundreds if not thousands of wakelock while connected to the watch.

I full wiped, then installed, full wiped, then installed again for assurance that everything would be incredibly clean. Looking forward to the next build!
[Samsung Gear 2] :
Just got delivery of my Gear 2 Neo (used from Ebay) and decided to give this a go. Easy instructions - watch flashed / booted and set up without issue.

Coming from Gear 1 so am used to Tizen OS. Android wear looks good but I need to read more to understand all the ins and outs. Flashed back to Tizen for now

Look forward to getting to know this port better

Congrats,
[Samsung Gear 2] speedme:
I am also coming from a Gear 1 and I was able to sell it for 130€ and bought myself a Gear 2 Neo for only 75€

Good deal right ?

I only bought the Gear 2 Neo for the sole purpose of having Android Wear on it, so I flashed AW as soon as I receive the Gear 2 Neo.

Don't wanna go back to Tizen/Null_23 and hope that AW will get better and better on each update.

Thanks for the great work [MENTION=803006]biktor_gj[/MENTION]

Sorry, I can't answer you that as I have never used ADB myself.

I only pointed you to the first post, as I know that the instructions are there to flash back to Tizen

(in case you overlooked).

But please use the other thread (Q&A) for questions and keep this thread only for developing

(and yes, I also need to do that....my mistake and I will from now on).
[Samsung Gear 2] flatherskevin:
This is a Q&A Thread post. Please read all forum rules and OP first post before posting anything yourself.
[Samsung Gear 2] :
From the OP,

Going back to Tizen

BE ADVISED: GOING BACK TO TIZEN MIGHT PROVE DIFFICULT TO ANYBODY WITHOUT KNOWLEDGE OF THE WATCH, SDB, ADB, AND ANYONE WHO DOESN'T USE ODIN. DON'T PM ME FOR IT. IT'S WRITTEN BELOW. ASK IN THE Q&A SECTION PLEASE. THIS IS A DEVELOPMENT THREAD, AND THESE IMAGES ARE FOR DEVELOPMENT ONLY.

BE ADVISED (again): There's no PIT file for this watch. If your favourite flashing app for samsung phones requests one, use Odin. I know, I don't like it either. But we live in a world full of virtual machines with the ability to share USB ports. Now it's your chance to use them if you don't feel like installing Windows in your machine.

*. Walkthrough video by [MENTION=6322628]alvaromartinezb[/MENTION] : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LhzI...ature=youtu.be

1. Flash this file: http://www.mediafire.com/download/3c...ll-Restore.tar

2. When it fails to boot and the screen goes blank, reboot to the bootloader menu and select recovery.

I flashed the restore file from the link above and then rebooted to select recovery as per the two points above. Worked perfectly for me - but if you read the entire post about restoring - issues can arise. Flash at your discretion

Good luck,
[Samsung Gear 2] DAGr8:
Note to all going back to tizen failed me so I looked at the more complex way of doing it. I ended up in the same bootloop . So I decided to flash the back to tizen mod again . It did bootloop but only once I hard reset it and it booted right away .

Ive switched back to tizen a bunch of times. First I flash the tizen mod that the dev put up, then let it start and go to recovery on the watch. Once you do the recovery the watch will boot up. After that I put it back into download mode and then flash the firmware straight from the samsung gear neo site and then you are running legit tizen.

[Samsung Gear 2] biktor_gj:
I took a break while I push a little further the Gear S android port. I did do some little improvements to audio on the latest wear image so wearmedia would actually playback audio but haven't posted anything since it doesn't fix the translate app in anyway, and couldn't manage to make the OMX encoders work, so playback is still pitched up. Will eventually come back to it but I needed to work on something with sourcecode for a little while ;)

Hoping that huawei wear watch with bundled speaker gets an image with working audio so I can reuse some of that...

Not abandoned though!

Hello everyone!

Today Android Wear 1.4 was released, I updated my app using an apk (because it still hasn't been updated through the play store) to test if we have any compatibility issues, like the ones that occurred when the app updated to 1.3 while the watch was still in 1.1. So far, I've had no issues whatsoever... I hope it continues this way!

"The full change log of the next version of Wear is as follows:

-Ability to play sounds and take calls on watches with a speaker

-Support for sending WhatsApp, WeChat, Viber, Telegram, and Nextplus messages with your voice or via touch

– New gestures to control your watch with one hand

– Battery life improvements

– Language options for Mandarin, Cantonese, Indonesian, Polish, Dutch, and Thai"

How does this get installed? Do you install on the phone, or sideload to the watch via ADB?

[Samsung Gear 2] Arry87:
I bump anything with camera questions. Stillllll dying to get my camera working T_T
[Samsung Gear 2] speedme:
This is the phone app (which is also called confusingly "Android Wear"), but what [MENTION=803006]biktor_gj[/MENTION] was talking about is the watch OS version 1.4 which will be released soon (hopefully).

---------- Post added at 03:38 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:33 PM ----------

Sideloading a camera app is not difficult, but it will make no use when the OS (Android Wear) doesn't support the camera

The OS fails to have driver libs for the camera.

So without the libs, the camera won't work.

All hope is now on getting source of another Android Wear smartwatch, which has a camera.

When [MENTION=803006]biktor_gj[/MENTION] has that source, I am sure he will be able to enable the camera on our Gear 2 with AW

(when he has time of course, because he is still developing in his own spare time...let's not forget this!)

Taking calls with the gear2 was the one and only benefit from using it with Tizen as OS.

Not that I used it a lot, but nice for a gimmick.

Taking a call with your watch, but actually doing the call with your phone (as AW has it now) is pretty useless.

hope a AW firmware with speaker/mic support is leaked soon.....
