[Samsung Gear S2] JoLander:
Has anyone installed Samsungs 'S Health' app and ist it working correctly ?

On my Moto G3 (1GB RAM) running with Resurrection Remix 5.8.1 (Android 7.1.1) I have installed the modified Samsung Gear app, the Gear S Plugin, and the Samsung Accessory Service without a problem.

Pairing with my Gear S2 worked well and I have no problem using the Gear App to maintain my device.

Now, I installed the Samsung S Health App to record the Data from the Gear into the App.

Unfortunately, even if the S Health App shows my device as registered, no data is transferred from the device into the App.

When I start the App, a message 'Synchronization with Gear S2 has been started' is shown, but after some time the message disappears without any updates in the App.

[Samsung Gear S2] Krayvuk:
Any chance of an update?

This was working perfectly till the firmware update pushed to my watch not it won't connect. Any chance you could alter the newest apk for gear app once again so we cab get a fix. I'm running off a Chromebook so cant edit files as easily as you guys. Thanks for all that you're doing and have done though!

[Samsung Gear S2] Nokiator0815:
it works

Hi,

today i did the procedure again and it worked with Samsung Galaxy S3mini with Cyanogenmod (Android 4.4.4) and HTC One mini2.

There was only one difference: this time i edited the rules.xml with APK Studio.

I used the newest Verions of the Apps Gear Manager, Gear S Plugin and Samsung Accessory Service and signed all of them with ZipSigner.

The Gear S2 also has newest Firmware installed.

No Problems to connect and use the Gear S2 with the Phones.

Greetings
[Samsung Gear S2] Nokiator0815:
The Same on HTC One Mini 2 with stock Rom.

Don't Know weather the modified app causes this.

Can Not Test because I have no (Non Samsung) phone which can connect with unmodified version.

Hello and thanks alot.

Will this allow ota update of the watch..?
[Samsung Gear S2] sushi1234:
You are welcome.

Yes it allows ota update, but if you experience any issues after updating firmware on the watch, you should also download the latest apps from my blog.
[Samsung Gear S2] pavlos46:
Hello if I could make another question.

Looking at the gear manager apk I see that it works 4.4+ on non-Samsung devices but on Samsung devices it's 4.3+ what's the difference.... and is it possible to get the 4.3 apk's running on a non Samsung device. .?

Thanks in advance.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] Techno79:
I was the previous owner of the the Samsung Galaxy S1 and the S2. I skipped the S3 but got the S4. All the phones I got were the international unlocked versions. Samsung left a very sour taste in my mouth with the S4 because it was stuck on Android 4.4.4 for a long long time despite Android 5.0 being released. I eventually gave up the wait and moved over to the Nexus 5 which I'm still rocking now. I love the quick updates and the monthly security updates too. The S5 didn't seem that much better than the S4 so I skipped it and the S6 seemed dreadful due to the changes they made so I skipped that. However the S7 has gotten me interested again for the following reasons:

1. Much bigger battery.

2. Expandable storage is back after the S6.

3. (Supposedly) much reduced bloatware.

4. One of the best displays on any smartphone (as reported by http://www.displaymate.com).

5. A really nice design and they didn't increase the phone screen size (I loathe manufacturers who keep increasing the phone screen size. Admittedly, 5.1" is still bigger than I'd like but only just).

The only thing I have concerns about is how slow Samsung may be with releasing future Android OS updates for the phone. My experience with the S4 and what I've heard about the S5 and S6 is that Samsung are pretty good with updates for the first 4 months of their new phone's release. Mainly because a delayed update during this period would really hurt their sale numbers. However, after 4 months, they really drag their feet and it's almost like it's become the lowest priority. I know it'll never be as good as Nexus but how good are Samsung compared to other manufacturers?

Edit: I've rooted and done custom ROMs in the past but I'm really reluctant to go down this path again.

What do people think?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] Toss3:
If you want fast updates, go with the nexus 6P/nexus 5x. Pretty sure the S7 won't be updated to Android N until February of next year (if not later depending on how much new stuff there is). Or wait for the next Nexus. Samsung really sucks when it comes to updates, but luckily the stock firmwares are usually fast and smooth enough for me not to care about not having the latest version.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] dew.man:
FWIW the international S6 received marshmallow officially last month before any of the carrier branded ones.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] Derpling:
Samsung is the slowest with updates, and they usually filled with problems, on mine Note 5 i tried now the Android 6.0.1 rom and had few major problems, roll back to 5.1.1.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] Techno79:
Which is why I only go for SIM free phones because carrier branded phones just add another layer of complete ball ache and bureaucracy to an already problematic OS update process. So not to be mean anything, but comparing the update delay to carrier branded phones doesn't really say much at all.

It's a real shame because Samsung has so much potential. They've got a lot of budget to throw more resources (or acquire the resources if needed) to get more timely updates. If they did, they would gain so many more consumers as they'd appreciate the better support. Samsung have a very short sighted strategy at the moment.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] Derpling:
You right and many users smart and even sheeps throwing them to the pit, i had many GS3 and 4 heck even S5 users that swore never to use samsung, and while they all like my Note 5 and agree it's the best phone atm, they never buy it just because they know that sammy is behind with it, literally with updates.

I can see it in my own eyes, October was the last time i got an update, Note 4 users left in the dust, while G4 G3 got Android 6 running for 3 months.... only now some S6 and edge variants getting 6.0.1.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] Ramondel:
Everyone keeps on putting the slow updates on Samsung when indeed, they just push the updates to the carriers and it is the carriers that drag there feet so that customers get pissed off and just change devices. Remember that the carriers have to add there bloat to the updates, it is not just Samsung.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] Derpling:
That right for carrier versions, i'm talking about internation unlocked model like mine, N920C.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] punkt:
Carriers slow it down, but samsung has more interrest in making you buy a new phone than updating a one or two years old phone. Just look at apple or sony, there you see how also older phones get an update.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] vasra:
Samsung never honoured the 18 month update cycle for Note 3 either.

Their SW update process is broken - either on purpose or alternatively due to lack of competence/resources.

Regardless, if you buy Samsung, you will not be first to get major updates (X.0), sometimes you don't get for your model at all (even though 18months is officially promised) and the security patches you pretty much need to hunt down / patch yourself.

So, buyer beware.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] Derpling:
It's ok to delay the update if they gonna optimize it further, but i don't feel it's the case with 6.0.1 as it have some weird bugs and apparently new "feature".

Samsung never details the updates and they never honored the security updates, mine n920c last update was in October some were lucky and got January security update.

They really should stop selling devices until they can support them, you buy the best product they can make to receive the worst support ever, low end sammy phones never get any updates.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] Techno79:
After thinking about it lots and doing a lot of googling about the topic, as much as I really do love what S7 will bring to the table, it is Samsung crappy software support that has put me off. It's unacceptable that Samsung provides such poor support for their flagship phone.

I've decided to hold out for the 2016 Nexus phone. I'm sure it won't be as advanced as the S7 but that'll be a small downside compared to the much better software support.

I truly hope someone at Samsung is reading this so they can take note as to how much poor software support is hurting their profits.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] stierney:
If you want fast updates then Nexus but my personal opinion is that Sammy isn't too bad on the update front. They do release a load of phones and with all their skins etc a fair amount of work is required before they can push out their flavour of new updates.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] gtg465x:
The longest I have kept a phone over the past few years is 8 months lol, so I'm not too worried about updates as sad as that is. If this phone turns out to be especially great, I could see myself keeping it for a year, but I can't really imagine keeping a phone for 18 months or two years. Although my wife and I do want to have a baby within the next year, so maybe my priorities will change and I will stop caring about having the latest phone. I am an Android and iOS app developer by profession though, so I sort of use that to justify buying phones all the time.

I was having trouble making outlook work. It just suddenly would not start up. All the typical advice, and a lot of nontypical advice, failed. Reinstalls failed. So, I have to move on and I proceed to sync up with a separate machine.. a laptop.

There are already 2 profiles that the phone is synced with, so it tells me I have to delete one. I delete both. They're just profiles, after all, and they don't actually work any more.

Now, all my contacts are gone. I've got a really bad feeling that I just told my phone to delete all my contacts.

I'm a programmer. If that's indeed what just happened, this is such astoundingly bad design that I'm pretty much ready to write off windows mobile as "crap"--especially given the fact that I did all this BECAUSE outlook randomly decided to stop working (the famous crash upon startup).

Is there anything, no matter how technical, I can do to get these contacts back?
[General Topics] malefactor:
I just looked at pim.vol in the phone root, and found some of the information in my contacts list, so it implies to me that it should still be there / recoverable. How can I make the phone / outlook / activesync sort this mess out?
[General Topics] tomX2:
hello i'm afaid i'm not much help. but i think i lost all my contacts as well! very very bad. i upgraded to outlook 2003. i deleted my sync settings and created a new relationship. i ran activesync. outlook/activesync deleated all my contacts!! i wanted my contacts to populate outlook...

i'm sick,

tom
[General Topics] zabardast_1:
Reinstall the PIMbackup in your phone and restore the Pim.vol or transfer the pim.vol to a miniSD card and get a card reader and backup to your PC.hope it'll do the trick.Secondly,it's been reported that the outlook 2007 is having sync problems with contacts on wm6,install outlook 2003 and check if it works out.

Good luck :)
[General Topics] malefactor:
I'm able to restore the prior pim.vol, finally. But all the contacts are still gone. The microsoft user groups (and microsoft employees that post in there) are quite silent about this - I even tried posting there.

Meanwhile, I have tried every version of outlook I can find. Nothing will actually run on my machine. It's only when you experience something like this that you figure out just how amazingly bad Microsoftware is; I spent about 2 hours trying to make Outlook work, doing everything from erasing all profiles and contacts, re-implanting / re-registering DLLs, to invoking it in every kind of safe mode.. complete uninstall + reinstall..

No dice. Outlook crashes upon startup without a single word as to why. I EVEN TRIED debugging it with visual studio. I'm not a wintel programmer, but it looks to me like the software branched to a nonexistent address (opcodes were garbage).

It is pathetic that Outlook can crash for 50 different reasons with the same failure characteristics, and it holds the user in contempt.

I won't use software like that if I can avoid it. I hope the googlephone buries windows mobile.

You glossed over the fact that this is a 800usd flagship phone that is less than 18 months old and that this will likely be the last major update. (eg note 3 is stuck with buggy 5.0.1)

Samsung's update policy is just bs, htc for instance, ported their latest sense interface to the m8 when it's at 20 months of its lifespan.

Hello everyone,

I created last night a quick survey to gather the opinion of users on usage of ads through mobile apps and how they discover apps to download.

Since recently, support was added to the tool to ask people in order to enter their opinion and I was curious and excited also to ask such questions and see what will be the responses.

This was just a small sample/experiment to see if users will share their opinion and also get an idea on the potential in order to structure something bigger with involvement also of other fellow android developer that share common concerns.

Some of the questions were:

- During what stage of the app experience do you prefer to be shown an ad?

My top answer: When opening or closing, not during.

- How do you usually find the apps that you download?

My top answer: Friends or I just search the Google app store

- Do you think a developer deserves to get money from ads for time spent to create an app? If not please specify why.

My top answer is this: Yes i think that a developer deserves to get money from ads they work hard to make apps and the deserve money from those apps whitch they make

- If you had to see an ad, what type of ad you would prefer to see?

My top answer: Anything that applies to my interests!

Results are quite interesting: https://www.pollfish.com/dashboard/results/7764/1660833277

So what I would like to suggest? Since most of the people here are android developers like me, what would you think if we can create a list of top questions we would like to ask users directly and get some insights. I can launch this survey to thousands of mobile users and we can gather real insights here for the community.

Please comment below with a question you would like to see in such a survey if you would like to contribute

Hello, Nightcervant

I'm owning a HTC One M8 Sprint and its on Marshmallow of sprint. But, i want to flash this European version of Marshmallow. I flash the latest version of TWRP recovery 3.0.0 and tried to flash the 6.12.401.4 rom it gave me a error saying check md5 or something relating to md5. The reason i'm trying to flash the 6.12.401.4 ROM is its branding free none like the sprint and Verizon or the rest of the carriers, they have too much of their apps and restriction to the mobile.

Most importantly i want a FM radio(Tuner) in my HTC One m8 this sprint MM doesn't have it. You know what i have managed to get rid of the sprint application still their is this annoying GPS icon in notification bar that shows no GPS icon. So, that's why i want to jump to the European version, so i can get rid of unwanted apps and get a FM Radio also. :)

I have one request can please share the FM radio app of your marshmallow. If, you dont know how to get the app of stock FM radio let me know. I'll guide you how to get the app of FM radio, and please send screenshot of the Marsh mallow of your phone including home, menu etc. Thank You.
