Well, i don't do such a project on donation base. I thought you wanted to buy my developer time to do such an app for you. So i would go with the normal contract details and you pay per hour or pay per project. Project might take some time we could discuss details over pn and not here on the thread.

I have my Xperia Z5 and my Gear 360 is on the latest firmware, so no issues here, but you might to re-start the whole pairing process and remove the "old" wifi and BT connections from the phone prior the new pairing. So don't worry it will work with the actual firmware! :)

Yeah thats the known issue i wrote in the first post, you might check you WIFI settings if you have an option to tell the phone NOT to switch wifis if no internet connection is detected, some phones have such an option.

Yeah, please remove the original app before. the dying of the phone cannot be caused by the app, the app does not have any access to cruical areas of the phone and is in my opionion just a coincidence. Many users use the mod and have no problems at all.

Have fun. :)

Unable to Update Firmware

Thank you so much for doing this. I am having a problem updating the firmware, but I think it may be the camera?

I have tried on a BlackBerry Priv and a Moto X (2014) using both the 2K and 4K app. I can get the firmware update to be recognized as needed, downloads the update file, then does 1 of 2 things:

1) Does not connect to the Gear via wifi (according to my phone's display) and the actual camera is completely frozen.

OR

2) Does connect to the Gear via wifi (according to my phone's display) and it just says "Update Geat 360 firmware [progress circle] Checking for updates.........." and does this forever.

I attached my logcat, however I feel it doesn't contain anything helpful :/

I should mention that taking, transferring and stitching pictures and videos work. As well as live-view.

Another thing that doesn't work is the desktop program Action Director tells me that it cannot connect to the activation server when I type in my code :/ I tried firewall fixes and administrator privileges. If anyone knows......

Sony Xperia Z1 problem

Hello,

I have a problem with generating 360 photos and videos. Photos from one lens goes from the device to download my Xperia Z1, but video and photos from both lenses do not. Always download stuck at 50% "Error receiving" use a version of 2K.

Thank you for your advice

PS .: LiveView does not just black screen :( probably slow phone
[Android Software Development] ViGilant_spb:
Dear vegairon2 plz tell me exact model name of your Xiaomi. You can control exposure, live-view works fine? Wanna get this phone just to control the cam, no hope on my iPhone.. :)

---------- Post added at 02:30 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:20 PM ----------

You can install Google Street View, put your gear 360 in "google street view" mode, connect via wifi (password will be on the camera display) and the only thing you'll be able to do is taking a photo.. no live-view, no profit. Photo will save on memory card AND on your iPhone and that's all. Not much..

Nexus 5

Hi,

I tried the mod with my Nexus 5, stock android. Was fine all the way up till connecting, where I had to manually connect it to the Gear 360 WiFi.

But then it loads up a black preview screen and just gets stuck loading.

I've included the gzipped log file, hope that will be helpful. The error coincides to when it starts logging LiveShutter.java, so those might be related.

Thanks! And keep up the good work!

update new firmware not working

Hello, and thanks for your port, it works with my LG G4.

It something doesn't connect again, used to restart phone but a memory cleanup does the trick also and faster.

So I do have the direct wifi live control, and can change all settings (thanks for that) but when I try to update the firmware it continuously checks for updates and nothing happens. My firmware is still on C200GLU0APC9 but bought it new 2 days ago at a online shop.

I don't know of anyone with a S6 or S7 or Note5 that could do the update for me.

Is there another solution?

like a USB to PC download and transfer?

Thanks in advance,
[Android Software Development] Bin4ry:
Thanks!

Sounds like your wifi was not connected, please make sure of that!

I am waiting for samsung to update the official app, there is nothing i can fix at the moment from my side....

Firmware update only from the app, but it works with the modified app, i updated the firmware myself with my mod. You have to make sure that you are connected with the cameras wifi after it downloaded the update from the internet and before when it wants to push the firmware to the camera, thats a problem on some phones which have problems to switch wifis ;)

Best Regards
[Android Software Development] cuspess:
Hey Bin4ry, thanks for your previous reply regarding my question of maybe firmware update causing the connection problem. I tried many times to connect it to my Xperia Z5 premium as you advised, but still without luck. I tried connecting the cam to my Xperia Tablet Z, and it seem to connect 90% of the time if not everytime. This lead me to suspect it is something to do with the wifi direct setup on my Z5 premium phone. When I connect to tablet, i actually see my wifi on tablet connected to the cam "named gear 360(xxxxx)" but when try to connect to phone, it does not do so automatically and when I scroll through the list of available wifi, there is no such gear 360(xxxxx) in the list. I am not sure what setting I got wrong on my phone but I tried looking through wifi settings and nothing apparent would help. I also tried to creat a log file for you to check out (I have not idea how to do so. I googled and followed instruction to install something on my PC, enabled the developer mode on phone and connect both via usb. But for some reason the bit on my PC don't seem to run properly. Can you suggest another way of creating the log?)

Sorry for the long paragraph. I really hope to provide you the log to solve this issue, maybe that will become helpful to those got stuck too. Cheers.

[Android Software Development] rdjjj2004:
Okay, so the SOFT_AP flavor works much better on my stock HTC 10 running Nougat. I'm not sure what the difference is, because both seem to use Wi-Fi direct. This version is more able to reliably allow me to view the gallery and access the live view and control the camera settings.

My only question now, is whether it's possible to have it use a channel other than 6.

re-connecting to wifi direct

Hi, my experience is that I need to remove the wifi direct group connection all the time, like this:

1) I make all the process so I get the camera to work.

2) Then I use the phone to do something else.

3) When I try to continue using the g360, it doesn't work, even if I do the whole wifi direct process again.

4) To solve it, when I go to the wifi direct page, i click on the "remembered groups" that was created last time... and that erases it.

5) Immediately a new group is created, automatically, an typically everything starts working again.

Sometimes I need to redo the process a couple of times.

---------- Post added at 02:30 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:27 PM ----------

* Quinny, do you have a date for the new version? looking forward to it.

* I have been getting an upgrade firmware message for 2 months, but I'm not able to perform it. It downloads, but doesn't transfer it to the camera. Any help here?

* Is there any upgrade in the MacOS samsung app? It sucks.

* I have been experimenting with sharing photos / videos with friends. Is there another thread where to discuss this, or should we comment here?

thanks in advance

[Android Software Development] PatcheZ:
I'm using a Nexus 5X on Oreo, and I get the same thing when I use the soft_ap version.

However, using the wifi_direct version, I have a similar experience as superapp.

Anyways, the live view isn't that useful for me unless you really need to frame a shot. The more important functionality is the gallery (which crashes for me), which allows you to transfer and share.

Anybody try connecting phone (otg) to camera to see if you can access it as external hard drive? Still trying to figure out the best method of transferring the files from the camera to my phone.

My only problem is I can't use the gallery in any form. It causes the app to close and restart.

Not working wit Samsung A5, 2016 version with android nougat!! Any solution??
[Android Software Development] namartlu:
OK... like to share my experience with the Gear 360...

1. 360 photos save fine to phone

2. 360 videos less than 2 seconds save fine to phone

3. 360 videos longer than 2 seconds fail to save to phone

4. I can copy the 360 video files to pc via usb

5. If I just open the video files, it's the "dual sphere" format. I think I need to use the Cyberlink ActionDirector to stitch it to convert to 360 video

6. I installed the old version of ActionDirector, video stitches mostly ok, except at the center there is a black object... the video when uploaded to facebook, is recognized as 360 video.

7. I installed the latest version of ActionDirector, video stitches fine and play ok inside ActionDirector, the black object gone. But when the video is uploaded to facebook, it didn't get recognized as 360 video.

I am out of ideas now, not only is the process complicated, I also don't have a working solution for 360 videos. So, I think I am going to return it, unless anyone has any suggestions for the issues. Thanks!

Updates: 9/22/2017

OK, I think I have a solution for my problem. I need to use ActionDirector v1, and enable "Automatic Angle Compensation" under the "Editing" menu.

I tried a lot of days, including all the APP versions, the phone to change the system, and then I found the problem

Every time I change the system, the first link can be linked, but the second link can't.

The problem is that our mobile phone system in China, in WIFI Settings, has no saved devices, and other systems have it.

The other systems can be linked if they are not linked, and the saved devices are deleted. But our system does not have this option and can only link once.

There is no way to delete saved data. Or is there a folder for WIFI direct data?:(

Hello, I updated my galaxy S3 to android 6 for using this modified app to control my gear 360 which I bought on EBay.

I have a little problem at this stage:

2.) You need to install Samsung Accessory Service from playstore Link (they come preinstalled on many Samsung phones and the playstore may tell you incompatible )

As described the AppStore says it is not compatible and thus does not install.

But I could install your modified apk, after several attempts. My gear 360 hasn’t arrived until now and I expect it next week. Will it be possible to connect? What does the Samsung accessorie service do? Is it possible to download it somewhere else?

Did anyone else encounter this problem?

Hi, thanks for the great work, we were happy to be able to use our Gear360 further!!

I used the latest 2k version on a Galaxy A3 (2017) under Android 6.0 and it worked well.

Since I recently unfortunately updated my phone to 7.0 Nougat, the app doesn't start any more

and the OS freezes till after 10-15s an app stop message occurs.

Same behaviour with the other versions.

Are there known issues with Nougat?

I'll try to make an log.
