It acts as a stand alone device but it have to be activated as a line to use without phone on you
[Samsung Gear S2] sefrcoko:
Isn't that the same as with the Gear S?
[Samsung Gear S2] chucky80:
That is the device I was referring to.
[Samsung Gear S2] apprentice:
Ouch! My eyes, that's a big block of text!!

I do agree with a lot of what you are saying here (and in your original post). Samsung are not carbon copying Apple

products

as such. The hardware, especially the AMOLED screens and the cameras are far superior and they do innovate far more than any other OEM out there. But they are definitely following some of Apple's

designs

(which I am beginning to hate). The new S2 watch, rightly or wrongly, does immediately put you in mind of the Apple Watch.

I really don't like Apple products and I hate Apple as a company. I have a very loyal following of Samsung products for years and I like the fact they take on the mighty Apple inc. (Samsung are the biggest competitor to Apple and must be a thorn in their side!) But Samsung seem to be drifting away from being unique. They seem to think everyone wants an 'Apple-esque' product. I can see the Gear S2 is a far cry from the original Gear S watch, which is a shame. The beautiful curved immersive 2" screen is it's USP in my opinion. I believe they should be launching the S2 as a separate product and just given the original S a bit of a facelift.
[Samsung Gear S2] tedkord:
If what we've seen so far of the S2 puts you in mind if the iWatch, that says a lot more about you than the S2. It in no way resembles the iWatch. Circle icons were on Tizen (and the original Gear S) well before the iWatch. Apple followed Samsung's lead on that one.
[Samsung Gear S2] apprentice:
I can only say how I felt about it at first glance. More importantly however, I think you missed my point! I am a fan of the current Gear S, it definitely is unique and doesn't try to be Apple. The route Samsung is starting to take smacks of trying too hard to be an Apple brand wannabe. Look at the Galaxy S6 or the Tab S2 for example and now their watches with crown features and those homescreen icons arranged in that way. Of course I am not saying it looks like an Apple watch, it just puts me in a mindset that Samsung wants to take on the Apple watch and will probably lean much more to its design than the original (and unique) Gear S.
[Samsung Gear S2] tedkord:
How the icons are arranged? In a circle? The iWatch icons are arranged in a honeycomb pattern. No similarity. Icon shape? Tizen and the Gear S had it first. Nothing, from the watch design to the things you mentioned are remotely similar to the iWatch. You don't have to like the new design or features, but claiming they're in any way copying Apple is just silly.
[Samsung Gear S2] apprentice:
hmm... I really don't think you are still getting the point I am making. Shame really. But not once have I said the S2 looks like the Apple Watch (do feel free to check) I said it put me in mind of it. This is a bit like a sunny day reminding me of ice cream. I am trying to say that Samsung is becoming Apple-esque and I stand by that. I am a big Sammy fan (see my signature for proof!) but... I would not be surprised if the watches eventually become the same design, which I hate. I love the current Gear S. I mentioned the icons as again it

reminded

me of the Apple Watch. That may not sit well with you, sorry mate but it is how I feel, please get over it and please stop with the defensive comments.
[Samsung Gear S2] tedkord:
So you admit the watch doesn't look at all like the iWatch. Samsung had the circular icons first, yet somehow they remind you of Apple, even though the UI is in no way similar. Got it.

You're welcome to have whatever you like brought to mind. Just realize it's entirely in your mind.
[Samsung Gear S2] derrickmd18:
I'm sorry but if the new one does have good apps for it to get txt messages and send pics and reply to things other than stock messager I'm going Chinese Android watch phone.
[Samsung Gear S2] apprentice:
Errr.. I am going to say this one last time… if you don't get what I am saying this time then you clearly lack some grey matter. I never said at ANY TIME that the S2 looked like the Apple Watch. Why do you keep insisting I did? Read my posts. Jeez, are you really so worked up about this? I am entitled to draw my own conclusions on which way Samsung is heading, I certainly do not have to keep justifying it or explaining to you, whoever you are.
[Samsung Gear S2] farewell_goodbye2u:
Except it's not just in his mind. I don't see for the life of me why you're having such trouble with the things we've pointed out. This is supposedly the home screen launcher of the S2. Look at the weather icon just for instance. How about the crown icon. An exact replica of the iwatch crown button or whatever. You can't tell me Samsung isn't trying to appeal to Apple users in hopes of taking some of their loyal customers with their newest devices. It's one thing to be a Samsung supporter and be loyal but it's another to see you get so defensive over the subject and downright refuse to be open minded and see where we're coming from. I don't care that the iwatch has their icons setup in a "honeycomb" format. If i can add 6 more Tizen icons to the home screen, guess what, i can make the same exact thing. I've also been a very long time loyal Samsung supporter but I'm also not blind to the fact there are some obvious similarities from Samsung in their latest devices. If you can't or just plain refuse to see the same, that's completely fine too. Is it a sleek looking watch, certainly. I personally don't see it as an upgrade and guarantee people will mistake it for an iWatch 2 quite often.
[Samsung Gear S2] CLARiiON:
Some people clearly overestimate their own opinion. They think Samsung should run it's multibillion dollar business according their whims.
[Samsung Gear S2] tedkord:
Of course! Now I see it! A cloud and sun for a weather icon? That's so original and non obvious that only Apple could ever have thought of it. Now that you've shown me the light, I'm noticing other things. Did you notice that for their watch faces, Samsung is using numbers around the perimeter of the display, with hour, minute and second hands pointing to them - JUST LIKE APPLE?

And the sheer brilliance of your observation that if you add more icons to the screen, they could be in a honeycomb! Sublime! Check this out - change the watch shape of the Gear S2 to a square, add a crown to the side and out a bitten Apple logo on the back. Yep. There you have it, the smoking gun.

I now understand that Samsung must have traveled forward in time to observe the iWatch, then gone back several years to add circle icons to Tizen and the original Gear S. How could I have been so blind?

The consumers you mean? The ones that make them a multi-billion dollar business? The ones that if they are not happy will lose them money in their mobile devices division you mean? Why else do they spin the phrase "we've listened to our customers and made some changes" I am personally not expressing a whim, I am reporting the facts that Samsung in part, are losing profits because they are not listening to the critics.
[Samsung Gear S2] tedkord:
It's true both ways. They did listen to critics with the whole build quality argument. But it'll take time to see if it pays off.

---------- Post added at 11:53 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:40 AM ----------

First, I never said anything about the Gear or Gear 2. I said Gear S and Tizen, both of which did have circular icons before the iWatch. It's a fact.

Second, people could also think the Gear S2 is the new Moto 360, which is much more similar. Or the Huawei watch. So what? That picture you posted proves my point - there is no similarity between the S2 and iWatch. Completely different design, completely different UI.

But, whatever. You're not going to change your mind, neither am I. And in the end, who cares anyway? Personally, I'm not sold on the whole smartwatch idea anyway, and the Gear S I bought sure didn't change that. Have a nice day.
[Samsung Gear S2] dawheat:
You seem awfully hung up on a few icons being similar. Disregarding that the shape of the watches are different, that the primary interface method is completely different and Samsung is the first smartwatch to use the entire bezel. The interaction pattern seems to be rotate through the dial and then click in the center of the screen to select - honestly now that it's here, it's hard to think why everyone isn't using such a simple and intuitive method.

And well if you want to get hung up that Samsung used round icons on a round watch where you navigate via a circle with icons on the circumference and ignore everything else...alright.
[Samsung Gear S2] ab30494:
I am loving the looks of the g2, can't wait to try it out.

On those saying Samsung coping apple, don't really see where, Some say the crown. The bezel is way better, and alot easier to use.

---------- Post added at 10:45 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:36 PM ----------

Samsung must of copied the iwatch here to.

The gear g2 is running tizen, Just like the phone in this picture. so it would only make sense the the gear g2 would have similar icons.

And plus it would look odd to have square icons on a round phone, but since the iwatch has rounded corners, samsung also copied that by making it round.
[Samsung Gear S2] zathus:
For a smart watch, I'm personally glad they went with tizen. For A SmartWatch there's just so many features you really need. You don't need a million app ecosystem to function properly. And with them going with Tizen it can be more optimized. Which is why they're able to claim three days of battery life with a smaller battery than most. The same way Apple is able to get so much battery life out of an iPhone for such a small battery.

I think it's designed beautifully. And I don't know how it looks on the wrist, but I will definitely find out once they hit stores. I think the OP falls very much in the minority. Not being a fan of the direction something is going shows. Considering since they started with this new design build and language people can't stop talking about how great they're doing.

I know the OP said they were a Samsung fan until lately. I'm quite the opposite, I wasn't a Samsung fan until lately. I always thought their products ran like crap, looked and felt cheap with a million features you never need. Since the launch of the galaxy s6 I'm a definite Samsung fan now. I love my s6 6 and I'm sure I'll love my gear s2
[Samsung Gear S2] CandyAndy:
To be honest I was first extremely negative about the idea of not having Android wear on Gear S2. But to I think that I actually like Tizen more than Android wear..
[Samsung Gear S2] apprentice:
Hat Eating

OK, this is the first time I have felt compelled to eat not only my hat but a generous portion of humble pie too! As I wasn't too interested in this watch (as I have said in this thread) but I was going on the handful of pre release images floating around. But now I have seen a few hands on videos of the Gear S2 I have to admit I was wrong to give it such a big thumbs down.

I still maintain it should not have been named the S2 because although the internals pretty much match the Gear S, it is worlds apart in design. I also firmly believe there is still a place for the original Gear S with it's big curved screen. I still think it is an impressive piece of tech and I am more than happy with owning one.

But now Samsung has produced a watch that raises the bar by a mile. It also has the lead by using a Tizen OS, I still think Android Wear has a long way to go before it can match Samsung's feature set. I am seriously going to consider buying a Gear S2 if the price isn't too stupid.

So, I apologise to those I had a spat with and I am looking forward to seeing more reviews and an idea of when it might be available and at what cost.

Now where's my hat?

[Samsung Gear S2] CehowardNote3:
They could have made the S2 20% bigger, like the high end sports watches !
[Samsung Gear S2] slliks67:
It is supposed to have a 3g model also i think they are nice and are they are gonna cost around 350$
[Samsung Gear S2] CehowardNote3:
I am Samsung Fanboy. I have the Gear S and the Note 4. I was going to get the Note 5, as soon as it surfaced.

However, they TOOK IMO, it main features. That was game changer for me , stayed with the Note 4.

Now to the Gear S, I am crazy about this watch, it does everything I want it to. I'm going to get the S2, when T-Mobile has them available. Keep to the ,length of the return period, if it works for me it's a keeper. They could have made it 10% bigger in diameter, and it would be killer action!,
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GreeleyXda:
I have the black s6 edge. Kind of tired of the color so i wNt the white note 5

Verizon only carries it in 32gb. Do you think a flashdrive would be okay for videos?

currently have 98.8 GBs used on my s6.

72.88 of videos and 15.5 of music

Music is staying internal on the note.

videos, once i watch them they get deleted

[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fachadick:
You asked a yes or no question. With that setup, you simply can't root without tripping knox - the only root method available to the g920p on 5.1.1 trips knox (and no you can't downgrade to 5.0.2 either). Sorry.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LordAbolition:
I guess I have to trip knox. How can I root this phone then?
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fachadick:
That's the good news - it's super easy, and takes just a few minutes.

step 1 - odin one of the kernels from this thread.

And that's it. You're now rooted. Most people go with the one labeled 920p (UniKernel-v6-0001-920P-080215.tar) - its a port of the unikernel, which gets rid of the lags and stutters that crop up on the phone.

You can then odin this version of TWRP, which will allow you to flash other zips in recovery. I think you can even odin this first if you want, then flash the kernel in recovery like any other zip.

check out this thread for more cool stuff to do once rooted. We even have a working version of xposed now.

edit - make sure you have OEM Unlocking enabled in Developer Options before flashing the kernel

[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jrredho:
Hey All,

As the subject reads, my TF300T is completely dead. I let it sit for over a year, and the battery was completely drained. I hooked it up to a charger for two days with the meager hope that it would charge, but that doesn't appear to be the case. The unit is as dead as a true brick: No bootloader, no sign of any life at all, nada.

I know that it's unlikely, but I thought I'd throw it out to you pros: Can someone tell me if it's going to be possible to revive this bad boy?

Many thanks for any suggestions that might get offered up!

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kouzelnik3:
Hello there,

maybe 3, 4 days before I wanted to use IR app as normal, but anything works! I want ask you, where might be the problem and how can I test it as hardware or in other ways. Simply, find, where is the problem. :)

Can you help me? :)
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LilProphet:
AFAIK G2's IR only supports QuickRemote, so you can only test it there. Try to add a custom remote, and test with an actual remote if the phone receives its signals.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kouzelnik3:
As I tried it before this happened, more apps than QRemore had been function. If anything changes, don't know.

I wanted to find some made remotes, but I got any manufactures. TV, set-top box, sound, blu-ray, DVD, Air-con, projector - everything is empty. What happenned and how to repair it? :/

It looks like my phone doesn't receive signal from handy remotes. And as I wrote above, I got empty manufactures at all.

And Quickset SDK is not frozen. :/

EDIT: I found app, which gives SELinux permissions, now it is function. So thanks all. ;)

I was screwing around in HKLM/SOFTWARE/Microsoft/Inbox/Svc trying to delete my outlook account, and when i deleted the folder i noticed that my phone stopped vibrating when i received text messages or emails.

I have since updated the ROM from the HTC website and the outlook account has come back, but i'm still not getting any vibration on messages.

Does anyone know how i can get it to vibrate again?

And i'm still looking for a way to remove the outlook safely - any ideas?

thanks
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] Aeneas:
i know this is simple but is worth a shot if you havent already;

check sounds and notifications (in settings)

check in the notifications tab using drop down menu

Yeah - i have vibrate checked there. it totally sucks because i have to keep looking at my phone to tell if i have a new message
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] Barneyabz:
Try installing third party apps like phone alarm and use their profile settings to set vibrate - see if that works.
