Yes, you can. but it has a trick. click on the video. you give to download. When it reaches 99% you go to the file browser and copy the video to another folder. remember that if the video is too long, it should be left a few minutes before copying the file.

Hello and thanks for this mode. I have the first version 2016 of gear 360. Is there the possibility to put live broadcast for facebook and youtube as gear 2017?

Thank you

Huawei p8

Hello! I just got an Samsung gear 360 2017 as a gift but i have a huawei p8 as a phone. I tried to use this app but when I connect it to the camera it opens the wifi menu and even if it's connected when i go back to the app it continues to bring me to the wifi menu... Can someone explain me whats happening? Ty all!
[Android Software Development] jamesmcuk:
I got the same issue. Looks like its going to end with selling the camera tbh. Its so locked down and incapable its not worth having when you cant use the app. I don't think this mod is being developed anymore and there is no chance Samsung will do anything. I ididnt think not having the app would be so detrimental to the camera when I got it.
[Android Software Development] Quinny899:
This mod will get updates...when Samsung updates the app. I'm also really busy at the moment as well so it's hard to find time to fix the bugs
[Android Software Development] jamesmcuk:
Ah that's good news. I thought you may have given up on it after all it's not like it pays the bills tidying up Samsung's mess.

Same problem on my Pixel 2 running latest Android 8.1 :( , with a Gear 360 2016.

---------- Post added at 02:26 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:13 PM ----------

Can`t enter the Galerie of the Gear 360 (2016) with my Pixel 2 running latest Android 8.1.
[Android Software Development] Quinny899:
Please don't quote the entire first post.

I know it works on 8.1 on my P2XL with a 2016 camera so have you disabled mobile data and manually connected to the WiFi like it asks? Did you install Samsung accessory services from apkmirror?
[Android Software Development] enricomemo:
I had the same problem, but eventually understood that you have to connect your phone to the camera not through a simple wi-fi connection, but using the wi-fi direct connection.

You may have to try a couple of times before having it working ...
[Android Software Development] Adam3Sixty:
Samsung Gear 360 2016 model.

OnePlus 5t (also worked on my OnePlus 2)

1. Turn on camera

2. Open Gear 360 app

3. Wait for Bluetooth to connect

4. Click gallery

5. Wait for wifi settings to open

6. Select camera WiFi

7. Use RECENTS button to return to Gear 360 app

8. View gallery or connect to camera

This is how I do it every time, no WiFi direct.

EDIT: Obviously, I already went into the camera settings to get the WiFi password and entered it correctly :)
[Android Software Development] manojdotm:
Switch your camera to iOS mode (on the camera itself, using the menu). It will display a password, write that down. Switch back to the normal mode and continue as normal, entering the WiFi password you wrote down when prompted
[Android Software Development] HSOC:
As a workaround I put the camera's card to a pc an cp from there. I don't know if this is what you meant, I couldn't find the video from the device's file browser.

Hi, i have 2 x LG G5 phones that is not working with the Samsung 360, wondering if anybody can help.

I have tried all the steps without any success.

First LG G5 is on Android 7.0 Nought, paired the camera via bluetooth. But when the app tries to connect to the camera, a box pops up and says No connection, Tap OK to try again. Tried numerous times and the same thing happens. Noticed in my blutooth devices the Samsung gear 360 has a printer icon next to it.

Second LG G5 i have is on Android 6 Marshmallow. This one i get past the connecting stage of the camera and the phone, but a box pops up asking me to connect to WIFi manually. I cant seem to find the password for the manual WIFI connection. When i try to go to settings (To try and enable direct WIFi) the app crashes and restarts.

Has anyone got the Samsung 360 gear to work on a LG G5 any help would be appreciated.

Maybe i should have gone with the LG360 Cam
[Android Software Development] ZephSlo:
I have Samsung Galaxy A5 (2016) and if i understand you correctly this app should work on my mobile too.

Had a little time to quickly fix the long-press bug in the gallery today, APK is the same name but updated (com.samsung.android.gear360manager_1.1.00.5.apk) in the Drive folder
[Android Software Development] MarkAndroid:
Thank you, good news.

Is the file already present in the google drive folder? (link on the first page?)
[Android Software Development] Quinny899:
Yes, it's called the same name as the previous one. Direct link: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1sNFEXUjj6HJR710oR5uKZZfgAHzwHMKJ/view?usp=sharing
[Android Software Development] MarkAndroid:
Thanks for the work done so that we can use the Gear360 on non-Samsung devices!

Great
[Android Software Development] Adam3Sixty:
I'm having a slight problem :(

Using the latest version, OnePlus 5t, OxygenOS 5.0.4.

When I try to select multiple images to download the app crashed. Doing one at a time works, and isn't too bad, however I'm taking a lot of pictures while on holiday, lol.

Any ideas??
[Android Software Development] MarkAndroid:
Hi,

I can not install the latest version downloaded from the direct link.

The installation package reports: the parser has not found any installation certificate in the package.

Solution?
[Android Software Development] Quinny899:
Oops, maybe I uploaded the unsigned copy. I'll check tomorrow
[Android Software Development] MarkAndroid:

I'm so sorry, I made a n00b mistake and didn't even look a couple posts above my own. Installed newest update and will check to see if long press works again soon :)
[Android Software Development] MarkAndroid:
Thanks, is it normal that it has a different size and name than the unsigned file of yesterday?

This has a size of 71.55 Mb and is called com.samsung, android.gear360manager_1.1.00.5 while yesterday's file was 71.43 Mb.

---------- Post added at 10:06 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:58 AM ----------

I installed the new version and now by tapping for a long time on the photograph in the gear360 gallery I can select the photographs.

When I save them in the phone's memory (SD - ExtSD), however, I can not see them.

He tells me "no items, photos or videos saved by gear360 on the phone will be shown here". But it does not display the photos I saved on the phone.

I had this problem before and now
[Android Software Development] Adam3Sixty:
I've NEVER had anything show up in that section, lol. They always save fine tho and I can view them in my gallery app (QuickPic) just fine. I don't know why the app doesn't see them, but it's never been a problem for me.
[Android Software Development] Quinny899:
That bug is known and has been there for a year now. I've no idea what causes it, use Google Photos instead
[Android Software Development] MarkAndroid:
Thanks for the reply.

Does not it work on Samsung terminals?

Is it really a bug in the original program?

Will it be redirected to a wrong folder?

To display them I use the system gallery, but does not show them to 360
[Android Software Development] Quinny899:
The original app works on Samsung phones, something in the porting process breaks it. It directs to the /sdcard/DCIM/Gear 360 folder

Use Google Photos, that can display 360
[Android Software Development] MarkAndroid:
Does Google Photo also display 360-degree videos?

Is there another way to import videos from cam to SD?

Having many videos, I have to pass one at a time because it stops...
[Android Software Development] Quinny899:
Not sure about 360 videos, but you can open local files (including videos) from a file manager in Gear 360 and it will use the app's viewer too, you just lose the gallery ability

Best to use a PC for importing videos really
[Android Software Development] MarkAndroid:
Thank you!

Do you use the original Gear 360 art director app from your PC?

The program, when it imports the videos, first converts them (it takes time) and then shows them, right?

Another question, at the point of union of the two cameras I see a very large vertical overhang, is it possible to correct it in some way?
[Android Software Development] MarkAndroid:
Hello,

Does QuickPic also display 360 videos or just photographs?
[Android Software Development] Adam3Sixty:
It does not show videos :(

I have not found another app that works to show 360 video, and I have tried a lot of different apps.
[Android Software Development] MarkAndroid:
Even I have tried many, but none is perfect as a 360 video and photo gallery. The ones I like the most are:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.KeatenTechnologies.Video360

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.xojot.vrplayer

We wait for the update with the possibility to see the gallery even NON-Samsung devices!

If in the meantime someone has discovered some good APP, come forward :)
[Android Software Development] Quinny899:
I use the 2017 program, the newer version. Not sure about correcting it though
[Android Software Development] cayos:

2. Open Gear 360 app

3. Wait for Bluetooth to connect

4. deactivated mobile data connection

5. Click gallery

6. Wait for wifi settings to open

7. Select camera WiFi

8. Use RECENTS button to return to Gear 360 app

Problem on Huawei VIE-L09

I install the apk, when I open it says to mannually connect via wifi as the wifi direct option doesn't seem to work, but allways finalice the waiting time to connect and doesn't connect to wifi

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks
[Android Software Development] Quinny899:
It should open the WiFi settings, you have to connect manually as Android will ignore it as a network with no internet automatically.

You also need to disable mobile data if you have it on
[Android Software Development] conicio:
It automatically opens the wifi settings, then manually connect to the gear (it looks connected without internet access) then back to the camera gear apk but remains loading and, few seconds later reverts me to the wifi settings screen... and a message " connect manually to the camera gear wifi option"

Hi,

I'm at the same spot actually with a samsung galaxy tab s2 at the moment. The obvious answer is to get it from google play, but it does not come up in the search results when I look for it with the tablet (though I look at it with a PCon the play store and you can see it listed...) - does one have to find a side-loadable version of it?
[Android Software Development] liquidleaf:
On my Note4, newest apk (March 14 2018) is still acting the same as the previous. Installs but crashes without error on startup (I have the accessory service installed).

Also GDrive gives me an error that the owner has trashed the file (it can be downloaded via browser obviously, just not through the Drive app).
[Android Software Development] Quinny899:
I'm aware of this bug, it will be fixed when I get the time to.

The APK is definitely not trashed, the folder is there and I've not moved it
[Android Software Development] gfchrist:
Hi! I have an LG G5. When I hit your download button I get a message that say "File trashed by owner". Any idea what this means? Thanks.
[Android Software Development] Quinny899:

[Android Software Development] Quinny899:
Right so I've just solved a problem when connecting to my Gear 360 which I haven't come across before, but it may help some others. I tried to connect in both WiFi and WiFi direct modes, but it stuck at loading..., dumping some rubbish about <ip> not being a camera IP in the logs. I had my bluetooth headphones connected. Turned off the headphones, and it worked. So apparently, as well as disabling mobile data and VPNs you need to be not connected to bluetooth headsets as well. Ugh.

[Android Software Development] n0waY:
Hi,

First of all thank you [MENTION=3563640]Quinny899[/MENTION] for your hard work on this mod. Really appreciate the efforts.

I just got a Gear 360 2016 and tried to use it with my Nexus 5X. So far I got the camera running, live view is working as well.

But there is one essential thing which does not work: Viewing images. When opening an image in 360° view it transfers the data but as it reaches 100% nothing happens and if I then click Abort it is aborting forever...

I looked for the stitched image on the phone using a file manager but there is nothing.

Did I miss anything here? I found few reports for this issue in the thread, but no solution and it seems to work for most people.

Thanks!

Contributing a small, probably well known find

Long time fan, Android user without Samsung. Loving this app so thank you. I found today it was having issues uploading firmware with the last update, so I reversed out the code to see a bit about what is going on under the hood.

I'm sure this is far from a discovery, but I found the URL's in the source pretty quickly for getting hold of the raw binary files for firmware. I thought I'd share a simple post on how to get at those files for anyone down the road trying to get at the files. It looks like the binary file's signature is (SLP?).

Can't post a proper link on here so, and its more information than I want to type in a reply post, so I posted it on my blog & I'll leave this here...

filearchivehaven.com/2018/04/12/samsung-gear-360-2017-hacks-download-the-firmware-without-a-mobile-device/

I can think of two ways off hand we could use those firmware files to push an update. Of course, by the time I typed all this up - I got my firmware updated. So my urgency has dropped on this, but if I get time to come back, I'll run one of my ios devices through Fiddler, and see if I can sniff out how the firmware files are being uploaded over iOS Wifi connection - tricky cuz if the firmware completed it won't do it twice. Could lead to a standalone firmware updater. :) No promises though, I'm sure smarter folks than I have followed this approach before.

Make sure that your mobile data is off. Also, I believe I saw a post earlier that said that bluetooth must be off now as well. Unfortunately this didn't work for me but it is worth a go at least.

Thanks for the mod! But sadly it's not working on my phone.

Phone is Mi A1 Android 8. Samsung accessories service installed. App can run but cannot connect to the camera through WiFi.

Manual Wifi connect requested in loop

Hi! I've trying to connect my Gear 360 (2017) to my LG G6. I've made good progress: I have an application that starts, it connects via Bluetooth to the camera. The moment I try to access either the gallery or the camera, it asks to connect to wifi manually. I do that, the wifi to gear says connected, I go back, it keeps on saying -loading- and eventually goes back to the wifi connection list.

In your post, you mention connecting via wifi direct... hum... The only place I found wifi direct connection was as an additional option in the wifi connection list. When I tried using it, it keeps on looking for wifi-direct connections without any success.

Should I do something on the camera to enable manually the wifi direct? Is there some other place on my phone where I should try to connect via wifi direct?

Thank you for any assistance.
[Android Software Development] rickpub:
I believe I was able to connect via WiFi direct when choosing the connect Streetview option. I was able to take photos but there was nothing in the viewfinder window of the app. Was never able to get the app to load with just wifi

Stitching problem

Hello I'm new here and sorry for my english :)

I was looking for a solution to my problem but I can't find it, so maybe someone of you can help me.

I have Sony Xperia Z3 Dual and Samsung Gear 360 (2016).

The main problem is that I can't display photos that wa stitched with Gear 360 ActionDirector (64-bit) on Google Photos (there are "flat"). I think something is wrong with metadata because if I replace file XMP.xml (C:\Program Files\Samsung\ActionDirector2\runtime\360) and add this:

<GPano:CroppedAreaImageWidthPixels>5472</GPano:CroppedAreaImageWidthPixels>

<GPano:CroppedAreaImageHeightPixels>2736</GPano:CroppedAreaImageHeightPixels>

<GPano:FullPanoWidthPixels>5472</GPano:FullPanoWidthPixels>

<GPano:FullPanoHeightPixels>2736</GPano:FullPanoHeightPixels>

The photo is recognized as 360 but there is upside down. This is not related with this topic, but if someone solved this problem with stitching for Google, it would be great to know how to fix it.

So if I can't stitch the photos correctly for Google Photos, I would like to make it with Samsung Gear 360 app.

Unfortunately if I go to "Gallery" and try to "touch" some photo I see progress bar that shows merging images - it comes only to 50% and stop working. If I try do download image from gallery there is the same situation - progess to 50% and crash (android on status bar prompts "download error"). The mobile data are off.

What i'm doing wrong? Is it possible to fix it and stitch the images in the app?

Thank you in advance
