Yea it did that to me too. Same thing happened back on my Note 3 on certain kernel release so it may be kernel related. I'm sure it'll get straitened out eventually.

Edit: I actually left it in recovery for a while so it would charge faster and it did charge quicker because it's not using hardly any resources in that state. Other than that I thought it was awesome and ran great for me.

Hi [MENTION=803006]biktor_gj[/MENTION]

I have succesfully installed Your last image android,

now I need help installing gapps or other source to install new app.

How I have to do to install google play or to synchronize contacts with google?

Thanks.

Alex

Download gapps here http://www.mediafire.com/download/e35w73s81q7u8im/open_gapps-arm-5.1-nano-20150925.zip

To install the gapps have to put the file in gear, or via USB ,Bluetooth or download direct for wifi with gear, then enters recovery and NEXT is made.

NOTE.To be put it in the downloads folder gear, if not You find first gear open the File Manager application to recompose folders

And them the pic of this post http://psyx3x.wix.com/tutorialesynovedades#!Como-instalar-las-gapps-en-el-Gear-S/c1tye/5659f1330cf277f55b31e871

I hope to be help
[Samsung Gear S] runningwarrior08:
To clarify on this what you need to do is download Gapps from the first post. It is easiest if you connect the watch to WiFi and download it right onto the watch. If you are unable to do that you can download it to your computer and transfer it to the watch.

For me MTP still does not work so everything I put onto the watch has to be done via ADB which isn't an issue to me. To do this:

Have an ADB interface installed. Minimal ADB and Fastboot is a nice one here on XDA you can google it.

Once installed drag the Gapps.zip into the install folder where the adb interface is.

Now open your ADB terminal. Plug in your watch with USB debubugging enabled.

Now on the adb interface command line type:

ADB Devices

---You should see your watch show up, if not there is a driver or connection issue

Now

ADB push "FILENAME HERE, DONT FORGET THE EXTENSION" sdcard/downloads

Now after this is complete you should get a prompt in command line telling you the file pushed successfully. Reboot the watch into recovery and flash the gapps from the downloads folder.
[Samsung Gear S] psyx3x:
For man install for ADB maybe are dificult,i edit the post

put the option of wifi and link of download,thaks...;)
[Samsung Gear S] runningwarrior08:
I agree but at the same time if you are modding you should be familiar with ADB.

Thanks for adding the links!

:D
[Samsung Gear S] chiikko561:
I agree and believe that's why we have so many of the same questions... IMHO if you can't use adb on your own you have no business using this.

Thanks to all [MENTION=4306271]psyx3x[/MENTION] [MENTION=2532582]runningwarrior08[/MENTION],

I downloaded: open_gapps-arm-5.1-nano-20150925.zip

I rebooted Gear S in recovery TWRP -> Advanced -> ADB Sideload ->

On the PC I opened a shell command

I used ADB command: ADB push open_gapps-arm-5.1-nano-20150925.zip

and as I see TWRP download and install automatically the gapps!

I wonder about that but it worked.

Now I have a Gear S autonomous, great works!! [MENTION=803006]biktor_gj[/MENTION]

I guess it would be a matter of opinion but this is full android for a watch that has data, cell, BT, sound, and wifi now being controlled by the full version of android, not just wear....of which I would have to say is easier, smoother, and has less bugs than certain phone rom's I've dealt with in the past. Other than screen size being limited, which has been no issue for me, I have no complaints and I know it'll just keep getting better. I like it better than the gear 2 port but to me its really in it's own class as they are so different in capability.
[Samsung Gear S] _shotsfired:
I'm so excited to see this working! I hate the stock tizen software...

Hey Biktor

Just wanted to say thank you for the effort!

I can't wait to see what you do with Android Wear since it would be amazing on this device with display size. Since I don't use this with a SIM, AW is what we really need on this guy to make it a beastly Smart watch.

As soon as you release the AW I'm donating!

Thanks again man!
[Samsung Gear S] biktor_gj:
Sorry mate, really busy at work, didn't have a chance to work on anything... a little patch to try to fix slow charging & random boots to recovery but didn't even have time to try them on the watch...

Next build will probably be in CM13 too, so it might take a little while...

Well... if you want I can post the image, but if you read my post you'll know it's completely unusable... like a Google Services crash every 4 seconds, randomly followed by the entire framework restarting... if it's just to see it boot OK, but don't expect to have it as a "Daily driver".

For Android Wear I'm waiting for the next release to try to port it again (both Gear S and Gear 2)
[Samsung Gear S] Kirrrr:
[MENTION=803006]biktor_gj[/MENTION], tell us please is there any advance in BT handsfree connection?
[Samsung Gear S] seven2099:
Good to hear. I did read your post, so really I'm waiting for you to release a working version of AW because as it stands the specs don't really make it feasible to use CM12 unless you are going stand alone but seriously who would? its far too impractical for daily use. I figure you'd develop stress from trying to use it as a phone.

As for AW, really that's where its at the only thing I'll miss is the ability to take calls directly **** tracy style. On stock really the main problem is contacts (useless lol, unfiltered ungrouped contacts = garbage) and how poor S-Voice is in extended features (making appointments and such).

I have the gear 2 and stock s-voice is 10x better. - even compared to it running Android Wear (I've tried the latest release) - because the AW port doesn't really look that great on the Gear 2.

Anyways, love your work and honestly if you need some help with AW let me know. I have time, and can help somehow.

Edit: Post the image bro, like a mayan or even more so a flashable that we can mess with. <3
[Samsung Gear S] Jhfreeze:
Wear would be cool and I'm sure I'd try it too, but I'm here for full android and thank you for all that you've done with it thus far [MENTION=803006]biktor_gj[/MENTION] and all that you plan to do. Of course its not practical to use as a primary standalone phone but its a 10 on the cool factor and functions great. With airplane mode on when not using it (making or expecting calls/texts) or just wifi on when playing around at home it lasts a lot longer on batt.

Question: Does anyone know if twrp could restore a backup after coming back from tizen? I know its there I just wanted to see if anyone's tried it.
[Samsung Gear S] crazyshakespeare13:
Not really sure why everyone is saying that using the device as standalone is so impractical....I have been using it as my primary device for well over a year. It's been great, and even better with android on it!
[Samsung Gear S] seven2099:
people use sailboats today to do fishing or travel. Its nice and all but really impractical for travel and fishing considering the alternatives.

Just because you don't think its impractical it doesn't mean it isn't.

The cost of this device vs performance/battery life and quality and features you can do much better with a real phone - with android, in all shapes and sizes - warranted the call forwarding features rock if your country supports it is great but...

If you instead go and install CM12 on it, then yes it improves in functionality but practicality decreases even more with the battery life drastically being reduced - and on top of that you have spotty bt headset functionality... its really impractical as a watch and even more so as a daily driver (phone).

Anyways...

[MENTION=803006]biktor_gj[/MENTION] release AW please. :)

Also to those who say it's impractical, I hope you are aware that is only YOUR opinion. A device is only as practical or impractical as YOU make it.. With that said my watch with cm is super mega PRACTICAL I use it everyday in standalone and if I wanted a phone I'd buy one but OH WAIT I already have.... Lol....

Again thanks Biktor keep up the work...

Only thing I'm really looking forward is phone calls on Bluetooth headset on cm..

Dude, lighten up, assuming your including me in the "to those who say" crowd. I was defending cm saying I'd rather full android compared to wear and gave gratitud and even said ways to use the watch to make it last longer on batt with half a sentence on practicality for me. It's your opinion you can use the watch 24/7 instead of with a phone, so of course it's my opinion I'd rather use my note 5 80% of the time and watch 20%. Now let's contribute and leave opinions aside.

[Samsung Gear S] corzradio:
I can't get it into download mode...is there another way?
[Samsung Gear S] biktor_gj:
The other option is to use a 300KOhm resistor to short the last two pins of the dock connector to force the watch to powerup in download mode. Since you see the battery charge logo when it starts it should work...
[Samsung Gear S] runningwarrior08:
I couldn't get that's to work when I tried lol, even bought one of the plug ins off ebay.

Did yours work?
[Samsung Gear S] biktor_gj:
The premade USB jig didn't, either with the charging dock and the cheap chinese knock off, but connecting the resistor to the two last pins on the watch and holding them in place for about two seconds worked like a charm!

I just used the watch to connect to vpn and remote in to my servers at work and used my AD app to unlock users. So cool, so very cool.
[Samsung Gear S] supergadgetman:
Do tell...

Just curious...

Did you use the built-in VPN in CM12 or did you use the Checkpoint SSL extender Java based VPN? I've been looking for a Checkpoint SSL VPN that's compatible with android, but since its JAVA based its been a no go so far. Also, did you actually remote desktop into your servers from the watch then use the active directory app? Seems like that would be some what difficult to use remote desktop given the watch's screen size. I'm a network engineer myself so that functionality definitely peaks my interest.
[Samsung Gear S] Jhfreeze:
It remoted in fine to all servers. Zoom in on anything small and keyboard and virtual mouse worked great on Jump Desktop app. Active Dir manager app was great for AD only stuff and I use vpnroot for pptp vpn. To use vpnroot you'll have to go to about phone, enable dev options, and enable root mode but those apps ran as good as they do on my phone, just have to pinch to zoom a bit more. But it works a lot better than you would think.

Edit: The reason I'm not connected to VPN in those screenshots and still able to access network resources is because I'm on my wifi at work inside the firewall.
[Samsung Gear S] supergadgetman:
NICE!

That's a damn nice setup! I think that falls under "Why? Because I can!" lol

Definitely beats chugging around a laptop for simple remote admin functions when on call. My company uses two stage authentication with RSA tokens for SSL VPN access. That's why I always have to have a windows machine around in order to get on the VPN. I wished they used PPTP which android natively supports. I almost went to windows phone for that very reason since it supports java applets, but I slapped myself out of that idea rather quickly. I'm going to tinker around though. See what I kind of remote access solution I can come up with using my Gear.

Thanks for the insight!
[Samsung Gear S] psyx3x:
i use teamviewer for my personal use for the remote acces
[Samsung Gear S] supergadgetman:
True

Yes, Teamviewer works quite well for my home PC's. Unfortunately the app is not for enterprise use unless its licensed. My company wont go for it.

But that brings up a good point. I could actually use Teamviewer to remote to my home pc, then make a secured vpn connection and remote desktop into to my work pc in order to gain access to the corporate network. A little cumbersome and the latency might be an issue, but its worth a try.

stay tuned...

[Samsung Gear S] skyred5:
Hi guys, i know this thread is for dev only and there's a QnA thread. But the other thread looks kinda dead to me.

Just wanna ask if this android port over is porting android wear firmware, or android as a whole? It looks really similar to android smartphones, rather than android wear. Does it support watch faces?
[Samsung Gear S] Bohrer:
This image change your Gear S from a watch into a standalone android 5.11 phone, but without connection to another phone. Watch faces are not supported. Another problem is the battery, mine works for about 9 hours, if i don't use it too much.

[Samsung Gear S] skyred5:
Thanks for your explanation. I'll probably reconsider on doing the port over carefully. I'm not sure what are the advantages of having my watch as a standalone android phone, with horrendous specs.

Anyone out there can share how's the usage like?
[Samsung Gear S] GOIGIG:
Personally I love it, I use it as my primary device whenever my note 5 dies. I would use it as a companion device for my gear s2 if the gear manager worked honestly. I would have sold my note 5 If the S6 didn't just get cyanogenmod 13 running
