Hi.

Bought a 360 (16) today and I have a Note 4

I cannot get the mod apk to connect, it searches and sees it but doesnt request a code

I tried my mrs note4 and hers worked

Mine is fully updated (june via samsung auto update) hers is May17 updates

Also, since installing uninstalling various 360 mod apks I can now no longer access Bluetooth settings - unfortunately settings have stopped.

Have cleared the cache.

Has been okay today connecting to the cars Bluetooth via settings.

Any ideas?

Partly solved via a Factory reset!

But, am again (after being able to pair with the 360) unable to access Bluetooth settings
[Android Software Development] MirrorMan22:
Is anyone able to use this on Note 4 and successfully use the bluetooth app/section after installing this apk?

Installed on two note 4s now and both BT apps are no longer accessible
[Android Software Development] Quinny899:
Please try and get a logcat, I don't own a Note 4.

The MDNIE error I can fix but I already know of the photo tab thing and haven't been able to fix it yet
[Android Software Development] rem3:
I tried and uninstalled all the apk’s, so I don’t think your Bluetooth problem is with the Gear 360 Manager. I have the latest June update on my Note 4 and with the 2016 Gear 360 only Quinny899’s latest (Gear360_Test_190617.apk) will successfully connect. I would try a factory reset again and then booting into safe mode and using Bluetooth to see if it works. If that works, only add back the Gear360_Test_190617.apk since another app may be causing the problem.
[Android Software Development] miniminus:
i know this is a long shot, but im hoping you at least may be able to point me in the right direction ?

am trying to get the Gear VR working on my S7 active,

i thought it would be a simple software missing thing as they pretty much identical to the s7 flat qualcomm (bar dif butons and case)

but after way to many hours, found that its some how blocked from detecting it...

as in when inserting it, i get NOTHING on logcat atall ...

(when plugging it into other phones like HTC etc the insert is seen/picked up then stumbles on software which is understandable)

i think once ive found what or how its being blocked there will be straight forward ?

is it this Gear manager ? or more core setup in kernel that would be blocking it ??

have tried some build.prop edits, and many many other mods, but nothing seems to unblock that initial detection when plugging in :(
[Android Software Development] MirrorMan22:
Cheers

edit: found
[Android Software Development] MirrorMan22:
Have factory reset and installed the 190617 apk and it is working and able to access bluetooth app without having to go via a 3rd party app.

Cheers

Now to factory the mrs' phone!

although that does connect with the 360 the built in BT app isnt accessible.

Gear 360 2017, not working with HTC One E8

I purchased Samsung Gear 360 2017 (Firmware version is R21GLU0AQC6), and my phone model is HTC One E8 (Android M), I installed both the APKs (WIFI DIRECT & AP_Soft) Bluetooth connects successfully, but when I open the camera it always showing loading,

When I connect with WIFI Direct it shows invited in WIFI Direct settings, it never connected after hitting many times. and never connects.

When I connect with AP_Soft wifi is connected successfully but camera view is not loading, it always shows Loading........ but never connects.

Kindly help me in this regard.

thanks in advance
[Android Software Development] Quinny899:
Open the app, connect via bluetooth and then tap camera or gallery. When it shows Loading..., open your WiFi (or WiFi direct if you used that APK) settings and manually connect from there

Use the soft ap APK and disable your mobile data
[Android Software Development] ramma314:
I can't get either soft ap or wifi direct working on my 6P running 7.1.2.

I've been wiping the apps data, fully resetting the cameras settings, and restarting my phone between attempts on the different apps. With soft ap it just sits at loading, even with mobile data off as mentioned above. With wifi direct it just fails to connect until the camera stops showing and returning to the app shows an error to check my network. Once or twice I've seen the wifi turn off after a few tries, but it just reconnects to my home wifi after 10 seconds or so. Any ideas?
[Android Software Development] Quinny899:
Are you manually connecting to the camera's WiFi when it shows Loading...?
[Android Software Development] ramma314:
I hadn't been doing that. I couldn't find a streetview mode as others have mentioned, but I think selecting 'Connect to IOS' showed the password since it connected over WiFi with that. I'm still just getting 'Loading...' when clicking camera or gallery though.

Is connecting to WiFi manually a step for both version of the app? I feel like I'm just doing some step out of order or wrong. What I've been doing is

1 - Turn on camera.

2 - Gear 360 app pairs as normal.

3 - Select camera in app to get loading popup.

4-ish - Tried both connecting to wifi manually here and wifi-direct. The loading dialogue times out before anything loads.

edit - I might have figured it out. I was simply clicking the camera in wifi direct over and over again. Removing the remembered group first, then trying again seems to have connected.
[Android Software Development] AmrRahman:
wifi can't connect

I tried your steps till i reached ( The 360 should show up. If it doesn't connect automatically, tap it, cancel the request. Repeat until it connects ) through wifi

still can't get connected , it keeps saying connecting i tried many times cancel and repeat ,, nothing worked

my phone is ( huawei mate 9 )

Kindly help me

thanks in advance

[Android Software Development] Quinny899:
Try rebooting, that often fixes that exact issue for me
[Android Software Development] superapp:
Hi thanks all of the contributors. It worked for my Oneplus 3 (nougat), following this steps. I repeat them for the sake of other noobies as me (I copy paste some of the instructions above):

1) Install samsung accesory service

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.samsung.accessory

2) Install this version: Gear360_Test_190617.apk

https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BwduK1C1PXjxcWtJSVFWNTFKNVk/view

3) Open app and connect the camera following on screen instructions (Bluetooth)

4) Try to use it... it will say "loading" and do nothing.

5) Open your device's WiFi Direct settings (usually Settings > WiFi > Menu > Advanced > WiFi Direct)

6) Immediately, The 360 should show up and connects automatically.

7) - Return to app, Live View should open and work.

I haven't yet tried live streaming.

My question is:

How can I share 360 photos/videos in FB/google fotos, so people can see them in 360 (dragging the mouse).??

Again, thanks a lot. Incredible work, already donated.
[Android Software Development] Quinny899:
Thanks for the donation!

I think if you use the Facebook app you should be able to download the photos and videos using the gear app, and then simply upload them to Facebook in the normal way. I know for sure you can view downloaded photos and videos in Google photos because I do just that - the built in viewer in the gear app doesn't have a proper (non stretched) view
[Android Software Development] superapp:
Thanks!

Hi Team ... how are you ?.

I'm following this forum because I'm discovering few issue with my samsung note 4 and the Samsung gear360 ( tipe old -2016 ) . I have installed few different version of Gear360 manager , also the last one proposed : Gear360_Test_190617.apk and all work fine for me ... but after the connection with the cam the bluetooth menu under setting>bluetooth become always unavailable , basically when I try to open the bluetooth setting i receive the error message “Unfortunately, Settings has stopped” . the only way to recover the situation is going to setting>backup and restore > restore network setting . but in my opinion the issue not depend by any "Gear360manager.apk" in fact if I try to pairing the cam with my phone without any apk installed and the the problem still appears ... someone have any idea about the check or action that I can perofrm to solve this issue related to the bluetooth? thank you ...
[Android Software Development] Quinny899:
Please capture a logcat, I don't have a Note 4 so cannot test it myself, and that's the only device that has this issue

That logcat is for aLogcat only, it doesn't cover any settings crashes

Hi Quiny899 , thank you for your suggestion .

I have used PC+ADB to collect the log .

basically I have redirected the log output in 2 file and in the meantime I have recreated the issue more time , basically opening the bluethoot setting the system goes in crash ( please note that issue appears only when the gear360 is turned on and is looking for pairing )

[Android Software Development] thefly76:
ok .... thank you for your time
[Android Software Development] superapp:
My experience so far with the oneplus 3:

I get it to work, but it gets stuck several times.

Main thing is, each time I start the camera, it connects ok through Bluetooth, but I need to go to wifidirect again, to reconnect... Only to see that it doesn't work. I need to tap on the wifidirect group that was created last time and tap forget. Then start the whole process again, and most of the times it works. Some times I need to repeat.

Second thing is, a lot of times, accessing the gallery doesn't show anything on the g360. Some times I can see the pictures, but most of the times don't. When I tap on the telephone tab doesn't show anything, even though I have downloaded some pictures.

Last thing is a question, how can I share 360 videos in Google photos?

With photos, I download them in the phone, go to local gallery, quick pick, then share to Google photos, then share through a link (not the photo itself, that shows a distorted photo). So far so good. Even quick pic works pretty well to see 360 pics, better than the g360 app.

However, the same process with videos does not work. Quick pic does not play them correctly, and uploading them to google photos, doesn't work either, it uploads the same distorted video that you see in quick pic, which is normal I suppose.

So, how do you do it? To play them in the phone without the g360 app an to share them correctly??

Thanks in advance.

Galaxy s5 force close

I can't get this working on my Galaxy s5. Force closes everytime I try to start the app. I can only get it to boot if I don't have the accessory service installed.

I've tried pretty much every app version of both Gear 360 Manager and Samsung Accessory Service now. I'm running android 6.0.1 cyanogenmod.

I don't have a gear 360 camera yet, but I am about to buy one. I'm just trying to make sure that my current phone can be used with the camera software before i bite the bullet. According to this thread at least some of you have used s5 successfully with this app.

Could someone push me in the right direction, what am I doing wrong? :confused:

thank you so much for the app.

Im able to use the phone as 'remote' to capture the video/camera.

Unfortunately, i doesnt work well with my xiaomi mi 5.

1) im try to use wifi direct but the 360 app unable to switch to camera after i press connect to camera. i have tried several times to connect thru wifi direct.

2) unable to look into the gallery

Hope to see you updated the app again.

thank you once again
[Android Software Development] ramma314:
I'm running into the save issue some reported earlier in the thread. Is it always a sign the phone isn't powerful enough? A 6P is fairly new, but even playback in the app without saving to the device is pretty laggy. I've tested with as short as 30 seconds or up to around 10 minute videos, same issue of it hitting 100% then sitting there seeming doing nothing. Photos seem to copy fine besides the occasional hang.
[Android Software Development] bigr1979:
Hi, thanks for making these apps. I have a Sony Xperia Z3 Compact. I have tried all of the combinations I can find but I cant get the app to either stitch or save a photo sucessfully. I have tried a rom based on the stock Sony Marshmallow as well as the Sony Concept (more like stock android) Marshmallow rom and the same. I have tried soft ap, wifi direct and also the app with no live feed. Does anyone have any suggestions to anything I can try bar a completely different phone?
[Android Software Development] Quinny899:
It happens to every non-Samsung device, watching videos on a PC is recommended

You do have to sometimes wait a while at 100% with photos for them to copy
[Android Software Development] bigr1979:
Thanks but never gets to 100% gets to 50% and stops
[Android Software Development] Quinny899:
Then yes I think it is an incompatibility
[Android Software Development] Atlantis69:
My app now shows that there is a firmware update for my camera.

Would it be advisable to run this via the app from here, or should I find someone with a compatible phone and run it via that to be safe?

I have no idea if it will affect the operation of the hacked app either, so I really don't want to lose the ability to use the camera with the Note 4.
[Android Software Development] lillpjot:
I did the update on a S7 Edge, now the hacked app doesnt connect correctly to the Camera, so I would recommend to wait.

I used the latest test file, Gear_Test_190617.apk ( see post #832 ) and the Samsung Accessory Service from Samsung at apkmirrordotcom/apk/samsung-electronics-co-ltd , scroll down to look for Samsung Accessory Service, go this page and select the latest version to download.

Heyhey! Are there any tricks to get it to run with the moto z? I've read through most of this thread and it seems there's only one mention of it, and the idea there (manually connect to the camera wifi) doesn't seem to work for me (still only says loading). I've tried both the beta as well as the 4k version of the app.

Great work with the app tho, really looking forward to being able to use it to it's full extend!
[Android Software Development] Quinny899:
Make sure you also disable mobile data

Thanks for your quick reply!

Do you think there's going to be a reasonable chance for this changing in the future (either by updating the cam or the app) or should I look for alternatives to the Gear 360 (as I don't want to buy a samsung phone)?

Thanks!

Unless Samsung change something, no

Thank you so much for making my note 4 work with my 2016 gear 360. Because of people like you I do not have phone envy yet. I had the 2016 version of the apk, it's the version at the front of this thread, right? It worked fine. Then I had some time to read through this thread and I'm on the Wifi direct apk, which is the latest, right? All seems OK so far other than I cannot see a 360 live view on the Note 4. Just front or back view. Are others able to see the 360 live view (both cameras at same time) on note 4? I'm still exploring this functionality, but I'm very grateful to be able to do that without being sucked into Samsungs Functional Obsolescence Program. And this is a great fun little camera.

At some time I'll try to add to your coffee fund. Thank you very much.
