Sorry, it was a problem with the Kiwi Browser. It linked me always to the start page of the galaxy Store. Now it's on the watch and worked fine. Thanks a lot. :good:
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] illetyus:
I own Gear Sport and S-Voice in this does not recognize my native language. I can't answer whatsapp messages through my voice.

Please, make this happen in next versions.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] athila.cardoso:
Thanks for developing this. It's great to be a Beta tester.

Is it possible to launch other apps with the assistant?
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] MarcAnt01:
[MENTION=3390574]Cybernetic87[/MENTION] sorry to post here, but I am trying to make an app use .NET for Galaxy Watch and I have a bunch of problems, can I contact you somewhere for help?
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] rwnoltin:
I'm having an issue where after I installed GAssist my bluetooth connection keeps getting dropped. It reconnects within a few (5-10) seconds but then drops again after a while (1-5 minutes). I contacted Samsung support and they told me to reset the watch. I reset the watch and it seems that fixed the issue (no longer get the bluetooth disconnects) but now I no longer have GAssist installed on my watch.

Has anyone else experienced this? Could this be an issue with GAssist? I'm bummed as I really want to use GAssist, but the constant bluetooth disconnects is frustrating.

[Samsung Galaxy Watch] Chaarlemagne:
Press listen button to start

It gives me this message "press listen button to start" when I open it on the watch. There is a listen button on the screen, but it is greyed out and not usable. I've done everything else I needed to do to set it up. I'm on a Galaxy S3 Frontier.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] NoFatePPC:
you need an update fo your gears3, search the thread
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] Chaarlemagne:
It's at the newest build already.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] NoFatePPC:
what is your build thats installed?
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] Maccyb122:
Just a question.

Absolutely great. Thanks a lot. Have it on Galaxy Watch 42mm, with Note10 plus. Quick question. Have phone, watch, Google Assistant set up with C° for weather readout, but gives me temperature in F° How to change it to C°? Thanks to anyone who can help.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] johny007g:
Tell google assistant on watch to change from F° to C° and she/he will reply to remember this in future. Did this when first got app and worked ever since so hope this works for you.

"can't make calls yet"

I recive a "can't make calls yet" when i try to make a phone call?

Any sugestrions?
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] newkydawg:
Already asked and answered...
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] ace1234:
I have the same issue, if I want to change Fahrenheit to Celsius it says it needs permission brings up an app on the phone but crashes when you try to apply
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] AlbinKlein:
Can I turn on and off my lights and all that like using Google Assistant on The phone and Google home?
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] newkydawg:
You sure can! I use it all the time for lights and my August Smart Lock.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] JeremySS:
Works great on my S3 Frontier and Note 10. Awesome work!
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] AlbinKlein:
That was my next question, I've an s3 frontier and a note 9. I wanted to know if it works with the s3. Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] guizmogwai:
Thanks for this app, it works like a charm.

I just had to add English language to have it in french. But now everything's fine.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] MikeGyver:
Glad to hear it works in French :D !

Could you please explain how you achived this ?

I followed the tutorial step-by-step and everything works like a charm, except it's all in English and I don't get what you mean by "add English language to have it in french" :rolleyes:

Thank you !
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] stoneymetal:
Can anyone please tell me exactly which Samsung watches this will work on? I have an S2 and have realized it doesn't work because I don't have Tizen 4 (not available on the S2). So I'm looking for a new watch that will allow me to use the Google Assistant, and want to make sure I get the right one before I buy something.

Alternatively, is it at all possible to make this work with the previous Tizen build (3.0)? I only ask because I don't know a thing about this stuff, and haven't found an answer in the many pages of this thread I have looked at. I'm also using an old phone, Galaxy S7, if that is another issue. Thanks in advance for any help!
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] newkydawg:
It works on my Samsung Galaxy Watch with a Pixel 3XL and just a few posts above, one user of the S3 Frontier says it's working with Galaxy Note 10. I have no knowledge of other combinations...
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] spider666:
Hello, just installed on my Galaxy Watch Active 2. It run in French.

I have a little problem, when I ask "what time is it ?" or in french "quelle heure est-il" Assistant respond me that it is an error and don't understand my question. No bugs on my Google home mini or on my smartphone (Galaxy Note 10), only via my WA2.

If I ask the weather, no problem. Only with time !

Any solution ?

[Samsung Galaxy Watch] Ivan Fuentes Hagar:
S3 Frontier + Galaxy S8 working with no issues here!
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] bliksems:
Fantastic, it installed perfectly - Galaxy Phone

The instructions were clear and easy to follow.

Everything works as it should.

Thank you very much, this is exactly what I needed.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] rhyacaus:
Hey did you figure this out? I can't even figure out how to ask it to change / where to change it. Just comes up in F. I have a galaxy S9 and the Active 2.

Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] gruuvin:
First post says app is available in Samsung app store. But I've searched app store a few times over the past few months, and nothing turns up. I figured I would eventually find it when it's not so buggy. This thread title still has it in the July beta.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] newkydawg:
I just searched and it's there. Not sure why you can't find it... Talk to Sammy about that.

Buggy? What makes you think that it's "so buggy"? Dev found a way to make Google Assistant work on this watch paired with many different phones. It works fine with my Pixel 3 XL.

I suggest you drop the attitude. Nobody said you must use this...
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] gruuvin:
Searched for "google assistant", since that's what is in the thread title and since that's essentially what it is. Seems like an issue with Samsung search algorithm, since the store doesn't suggest this app with that search term. But if the app is still in beta, not sure how the store handles it. Found it with 'gassist.net"

The watch app is in Samsung app repo, but the companion app isnt? The companion app comes from Google play. Also confusing.

There was also talk of possibly doing away with the need for companion app in the future. That would make things tidier. Also, the process of getting a secrets.json file into the correct phone location. It's all a bit messy right now. This is why I wait to see how this app evolves, once it gets out of beta. I also read the responses to this thread. It's still a bit of trouble for the average user to get working.

Beta (0.9.3) implies it's not yet stable. When the version rolls to 1.x.x, then I can assume it's finally beyond the beta stage. Been waiting for that.

No big deal. Just pointing out some observations from a normal user that's waiting for this app to become somewhat ready for the masses. At that point, I would be happy to buy it, if it's designed well.

There was no attitude. Sounds like you are copping the attitude. Try to not be so sensitive, "newkydawg".
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] RocketSled:
Well... the title of the thread is "GAssist.net...". "Google Assistant for Galaxy Watch" is what it is, not what it's called. If you'd searched for "GAssist" in the Galaxy store it'd come up at the top of the list.

And while I consider myself an "above average" user, GAssist was trivially easy to install. I just followed the instructions and it worked.

My only complaint is that it can't do more. And since beggars can't be choosers, I'm not really complaining. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] Burntzelda:
Fantastic

Fantastic stuff my friend, exactly what I was looking for, if youvfield such expertise you should make other missing google features like google maps, google books and some actual apps that allow you to compose messages like whatsapp.

Gear s3

Confirmed working on the gear s3 with latest watch update. I had to authenticate and paste twice of that helps anyone.

---------- Post added at 11:14 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:04 PM ----------

My first question after I got this working. Maybe the "hey watch" phrase can be rewired to use this instead of the Samsung voice control.

Or maybe a double tap gesture. Hope anyone here has a clue how to do that.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] Cybernetic87:
That's something new...

Do you have bluetooth connected with watch ? Do you have Wearable manager installed and paired with watch ?

Next version will have loads stability upgrades and I will add logging to file as well so we can eliminate all the bugs.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] Cr4z33:
Ooops I actually forgot to mention that I ran the phone app WITHOUT having the watch paired or on. :o

Going to try again with the watch paired.

---------- Post added at 19:37 ---------- Previous post was at 19:32 ----------

Nope it's crashing anyway.

Everything paired and up to date.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] Cybernetic87:
Do you have Gassist.net installed on watch ?
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] Cr4z33:
Sure.

Successfully certified and installed.

In addition:

Watch app keeps saying 'reconnecting' while on the phone its app keeps force closing.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] :
[MENTION=3390574]Cybernetic87[/MENTION] are we months away from a release in the store?

I tried to sideload, but I was only able to see my watch in remote connection, but it refused to actually connect. I know you're making it free.. But damn I would pay if this was actually in the store.

Thanks for your work! :)
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] Cybernetic87:
I'm having a couple of issues which must be resolved before I even think about putting it to the store.

The other thing is that Google API is currently in alpha stage and it's not suitable for reselling purposes - I am not sure how about the legal things on this.

I may end up making phone app totally open sourced and the closed source companion for watch - unrelated to google services etc (it would only talk to the phone app)

As for the questions about what the assistant can or cannot - it doesn't depends on me, I give you all which Google API is capable of in alpha stage. I believe the maps / navigation part can be somehow turned on (it says that the device does not support location atm - but it's a future plan to make it work)
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] Matvei27:
you can publish closed beta applications to the store, they will not be visible unless the user has been added to the closed beta.

that is how this should be done, instead of the current installation method which is extremely cumbersome.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] petsrdjan:
How to install? Where we can download file apk file?
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] Matvei27:
It requires you to resign it, but I never got the bat file to work with my certificates so I couldn't install it.

So I'm waiting until the dev makes a decision on how to release it.

If the developer wants to charge for this he can start a closed beta through the galaxy store,

if he doesn't he could upload the tizen studio project source so people can build it (and sign it) themselves.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] alienflorina:
Looks very promising man! Too bad I'm on the road so can't install the alpha.

I know it's a long shot but would it be possible to integrate this to the quick responses. So we would be able to respond to a whatsapp message by dictating to Google and not the ****ty Bixby thingie .
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] r4yv3n:
After update to Tizen 4.0.0.4 app installs on watch, but doesn't open.

Made new certificate to sign, but still same problem.

Any idea?
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] Cybernetic87:
New version

0.3.0

is out!!!

I totally rewritten the logic, now I'm using Google native protocols (ProtoBuf) to talk with phone app, its like a one step of making the app standalone (far future plan for now, related to legal issues etc)

What it gives:

Reduced delay !!! yes, even more.

Now the responses come to us in MP3 files (reduces network transfer by A LOT!!!)

Option to use totally everything which is available via Google Assistant Service API (maybe Maps in future)

At last it's a reliable way to exchange the data between watch and phone

Code is way clearer

Downsides:

Moved a lot of logic to the watch side (necessary and useful in the future when I dedide to make app standalone)

WILL increase watch CPU / RAM usage - can be slow on slower watches - needs tests

The whole app needs to be tested over, some past bugs may have come back etc. (its alpha so bugs are welcome :))

Watch app needs mediastorage permissions now as I moved buffering to a file
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] Cybernetic87:
Try new version, if it doesn't work send the logs:

How to get the logs

You have to have Tizen studio installed.

Watch has to be in debug mode.

Immediately after crash / bug connect watch via wifi.

Open Tizen SDK Device Manager.

Wait a while until it reads the logs.

Export logs:

Zip them and attach to post reporting bug.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] Dixon Butz:
This new version .3 is working beautifully! Very responsive! Understands everything I say so much better now! Response is very fast!

You sir, are a Genius! Fantastic update dude!
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] r4yv3n:
Installing the .3 app opens, but after few seconds on grey button screen closes itself :(

And can't send logs, Tizen Studio says "JAVA_HOME not set in any variables..." when i touch in Device Manager
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] Cybernetic87:
Alternative way to get logs

Open command prompt
Write:
cd C:\tizen-studio\tools (or path where you have Tizen Studio installed)
sdb connect <ip to your watch>:<port> (default port 26101)
sdb dlog -d >> mylog.txt

Like this:
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] Cybernetic87:
Small update, version 0.3.1

-added possibility to turn the volume up / down - just say "turn the volume down, turn the volume up / set the volume to 50% or whatever assistant understands) - works for me both in Polish and English -

it manipulates the Media Volume level of the watch

-updated dependencies to latest versions

-upgraded used .net Core framework from 1.0.0, to 2.2.3\\

NOTE:

I believe that saying "turn the volume up / down" - without giving specific value could be problematic if you wanted to turn the volume down twice, because Assistant doesn't know yet what volume is currently set up. So by saying that you always alter the max volume by certain % (I believe that if you just say turn the volume down its 10 or 20%). Needs better testing / improvement. If it doesnt work good, just say "turn the volume down to 50%", or "set the volume to 50%" or whatever value you need.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] r4yv3n:
Here is the log file in zip :)

Hope this can help.

Is from latest 0.3.1

If you need to set JAVA_HOME path, look at my post in this thread here:

https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=79552810&postcount=103
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] Cybernetic87:
You are missing this library:

I/DOTNET_LAUNCHER(28269): System.IO.FileNotFoundException: Could not load file or assembly 'Samsung.Sap, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null'. The system cannot find the file specified.

This is strange because it's an original Samsung library.

Do you have Galaxy Wearable installed on your Android Phone ?

It gets even stranger... I've found Samsung.Sap.1.1.0 assembly on my watch in folder NuGet.

The weird thing is that the lib isn't available on the internet in NuGet repositories.

Anyway, I downloaded this lib from watch and bundled it into this experimental tpk, try it.

One more EDIT:

I believe that the change which I marked the update upgraded the SAP(Samsung Accessory Protocol), its good but the bad thing is that GAssist references the old version of the assembly, which looks like is not available after update. The problem is I cannot reference the new lib since it doesn't exist on NuGet repositories.

Bundling it like mentioned above can work but it's a temporary solution / workaround.

Hello guys,

I was absent for a long time. I am having health issues at the moment, I broke my leg about 2 months ago, I am after a surgery and still recovering.

If you ask for an updates, I dont really see anything crucial that needs to be urgently updates.

The graphic responses are still pending to do but as I already said - I am not making it without an assistance of some experienced js / html developer. As of the smsing / calling etc - I won't be implementing these features.. I am still monitoring the current Google Assistant API state and I hope that they will add some new possibilities / features - then I would be happy to implement them into GAssist.

I'm also kinda disappointed with the number of donations etc. I got like 400-500 USD from the beginning. That's way less than I expected so it demotivates me for forcing and updates as well.

What I can promise that if anything changes in Google Api and we will get some new functionalities there - I will implement them.

Regards. Kamil

Thanks for the app. I just donated. Anyway, on the first page FAQ under "is the app paid" it might help to state that donations are welcome. It would get people thinking about it.

Is anyone else having issue finding on galaxy store I tried the link and all I get is not compatible with my phone. I am using a note 8 and gear s2 att version. Thanks for the help.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] GatorsUF:
I'm thoroughly impressed with the Devs ability to get Google Assitant on the watch, that's really cool. However I'm wondering if the effort is worth it without some key features (which are likely impossible to implement).

I feel like most of what I use the Google Assistant for is to manage my home and google home devices, I also use it to send text messages without needing to look at my phone or watch. It seems the only thing I can do with GAssist is look up the longest river in the world or maybe add something to my calendar. I don't mean this as a knock on the Dev as he has done incredible work just to get it this far, I'm just wondering if Bixby might be more useful for some of this stuff...
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] Cybernetic87:
I'm pretty sure I've already covered the answers for the arguments you mentioned but let me do it again.

1. I was prohibited by samsung of using Google and assistant keywords in 'tags' section, they simply denied the application with these keywords in use

2. I do not want to make the credentials process easier. I already kinda bypass the Google terms of service which forbids commercial use of the API by forcing users to create their own projects and each of the user becomes a tester for an API. I repeat, I do not want to automate it cause it would be a violation of ToS to use such a nasty trick and create an API project for the user. Sorry I don't need the legal issues. It's possible but Im not doing it for a purpose.

3. I won't be charging people for usage of my application which uses the Google API which is still in alpha and not meant to be used commercialy as stated in ToS.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] newkydawg:
I use GAssist to control my Smart Life & Kasa smart switches, Honeywell thermostats, and August Smart Locks. I don't use Google Assistant for texts so that's not an issue for me. What exactly is not working with your home management?
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] z0oinks1:
Is anyone able to get reminders working on this? When I ask, it asks to allow permission on my phone, but when I try to enable it on my phone, it crashes Google Assistant settings.

Also, would timers be possible? These are the only two things I really ever use Google Assistant for
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] kikuratab:
Google assistant settings > Assistant Tab

Scroll to the bottom > galaxy_watch > enable personal results

This worked for me.

Also, can anyone tell me how to change the voice to UK English, please? I have scoured this thread to no avail. All my other devices are set to UK voice. I can find no option to do this for Gassist on the watch. It just defaults to US English.

I wouldn't mind, but I feel like I'm talking to a stranger on the watch!

Hi guys im having a problem , when i select the .json file after renamng it everything acts like its going to work but it just sits on the sign in here is your code screen and if i go back to gassist i have to start the process all over , ive been trying to get this to work since it came out . i have a gakaxy watch 46mm

silly question: Could someone provide for me this file which has to be created via google cloud?
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] gruuvin:
Ahhh. Samsung blocks the keywords 'google' and 'assistant', and Google prohibits the use use of the creds api commercially. Those two issues are enough to totally kill this deal! I had thought this app would eventually go beyond xda user ability/visibility and go mainstream. This is really unfortunate. It is so close to that potential! Well, that is exactly why there cannot be enough $$ compensation. Only a small set of watch owners can discover this app (xda forum readers), and only a smaller subset can complete the installation (finish the google cloud api procedure). It's just too small an audience. :-/

Even still, I donated about a month ago, and I appreciate your work. Thanks for continuing to develop this app, even though there is no money in it.
