Galaxy Gear Compatibility - Samsung Galaxy Gear

I see that only the Galaxy S4 and Note 3 are listed for Galaxy gear support for phone. When 4.3 comes to the note 2 any idea if the Galaxy Gear will be supported? Maybe someone will be able to create a custom firmware with this if not?

Yes it will be supported

The burning question now is "If/When 4.3 will be rolled out for the Note2

Well if the gear is going to be rolled out in October I think in October (or I hope to)

AT&T may get it in October, but you won't, at least not officially.

Just b/c the Note 2 will support Gear, doesn't mean the Note 2 will get 4.3. They could just roll out an app through the Samsung app store to make it compatible.

They have already officially said they were skipping 4.2 to bring 4.3 instead......
Why you keep posting that we aren't going to get it is the real mystery here

They NEVER officially said. There were plenty of unofficial reports of skipping 4.2 to 4.3, but nothing from Samsung.
No mystery, just don't want people to be surprised if it doesn't come soon if at all. Samsung wants to sell the Note 3, holding the 4.3 update back on the Note 2 makes sense. They could just cook up an app to make it compatible to Gear.
Look at the Galaxy S3 and S4 by comparison. The S4 released, the S3 sailed along with 4.0/4.1.

I was just wondering what you base that off of.
Sorry, I probably come off as negative, really didn't mean to. I just don't have much trust in Samsung supporting their customers(previous track record).
I really do hope we get it though.

no offense to anyone here, but none of us has a clue on what their plan for note 2/4.3/smart watch compatibility really is, so until someone actually finds something posted officially by them, all this is nothing but S W A G....

When it comes to updates, it's not just a matter of which phone but also which carrier. For example, I can guarantee you that Verizon will be dead last to introduce the update. Also, don't expect your Note 2 after the update to function like S4/N3. Samsung is not stupid enough to give away freebies for your old phone; they want you to buy a new phone model now.

expect more samsung devices to be supported also Non-Samsung phones later this year!

wishful thinking? or do you have additional info to support it?
In theory, once it's released and rooted - it will support everything lol!!! But considering a hefty price tag I don't think it might get as much attention from developers community. Remember Sony? It got VERY popular once LiveView was available for $20 brand new on ebay and original SmartWatch was down to $99.

Price price price?

Who will make my next phone?

Hey all.
Basically i just want to hear all your thoughts on your current devices, and what you think of the next device in that product family.
My thoughts.
My first android device was the Motorola defy which really sold android for me, the fact i could treat a phone horribly by accident and it not care was a really solid selling point. The developer community for it was really quite strong too, it even receiving CM10 before my current S2.
The original transformer isn't the prettiest, lightest and fastest tablet anymore (not that it was ever lightest SO MUCH GLASS) but it was and is my first tablet and still works amazingly today. Good job Asus.
My current phone is the Samsung Galaxy S 2 which i bought outright after everyone that had one giving raving reviews and a quick view of the forum showed a very active community. Little did i know the issues the developers faced to get the aosp roms working properly, it is not pretty and it is entirely the fault of Samsung and their hardware partners (I am looking at you, yamaha). I know this and love the developers for supporting my S2 so well, especially codeworkx whom has been moving devices lately.
I love the idea of getting the S3, but i would only be going for the larger screen and if all i want is the larger screen why not go even larger and get the Note 2? Especially after its drop test video. It is a tank of a phone.
The One X+ Kind of interests me with unlocked bootloaders etc. But the fact i have to flash the kernel separately to the ROM every time (or at least that is my understanding) would really annoy me.
After the defy i would rush to a unlocked bootloader on a Motorola. That and screen size were the only issues i had with my defy.
But my current plan runs out in December which is only a few months away and i would love some ideas on devices coming into Christmas season.
Currently i am thinking Note 2, but i don't want to have half baked aosp roms because of hardware support. Ideas?
And yes doing a BYO 6 month plan with my local carrier is an option.
How bout this one?

There are some really cool devs and contributors who have written apps and scripts that enable you to flash everything all at once, kernel included.

I have the SGSIII and the One X. In the case of the One X (not the One X+ but it's basically a refresh of the One X) yes, you do have to extract and flash the boot.img via your pc using fastboot and the flash the modules via recovery...not as bad as it sounds. It's a great phone.
The SGSIII not only has a bigger screen but a higher resolution than the SGSII. There are many ROMs for it and in the case of the US variants I've flashed ROMs made for the AT&T variant on my T-Mobile one. (The international version also has great development.)

Hey Tommy thanks for the reply, i take it your experience is from the EVO?
Thanks Babydoll one of my friends has the one x which i rooted/cm10ed for him the other day, it was an interesting look into HTC custom roms and i must say it is not overly difficult or anything. And i did see the scripts Tommy was talking about, they would be nice in easing the transition. How do you find the one x build quality? I heard it was hit and miss between users.

There's a Samsung Touchwiz theme/launcher in the Theme section. That's your only other option.

While that's true, if the ROM is that important, it's probably worth the slight downgrade in specs. I have both a Nexus 7 and a Galaxy Tab Plus, and the performance on stock ROM vs. stock ROM isn't hugely different. I prefer the Nexus 7 because it has stock Android, but if having Touchwiz was that important to me, I don't think I'd miss out on anything by using the Plus.
I am looking to sell my Plus, though, so maybe keep an eye on Swappa, OP.
Samsung is BAD!
Samsung doesn't have any rooms at the moment, try a different hotel.
Seriously though. The closest you can get is through themes and launcher. Touchwiz isn't open source enough to port it
i got 2 questions for you:
1. Why??? (i had a Samsung tab 2 10.1 and the first thing i did was remove the samsung stockrom )

Thanks for your help and feel adapted builder with crude system your NX7.

OK OK I have a Samsung galaxy ace s5830i (don't forget the i at the end) and I've done the complete opposite. I tried to make it as much as a jelly bean phone (like the nexus 4) as muck as possible so I flashed jelly blast and ported the nexus 7 boot animation etc. did loads of stuff like that (tweaking the jelly blast ROM, having jelly bean app icons and so on) and to be honest I think it looks really neat By the way my friends have galaxy y's and sII minis etc. And there pretty jealous of me. (Half of them have only rooted there phone the rest are just noobs. None of them have even flashed a ROM or kernel... Except for me )

Just my 2 cents..... I would highly recommend the HTC M8. I had the S5 for 3 days, took it back and got the M8 and LOVE IT! I have had a couple Samsung devices (S3, Tab 3) and was really looking forward to the S5, but the no-root/locked AT&T bootloader was a deal breaker for me.
Went with the HTC and have no regrets. Love the Sense 6 interface and you can customize anything, in terms of graphically. Have experienced zero lag, hiccups or any other glitches that are inherent with Touchwiz systems (typically).
The Note 3 is a nice device too, but rather big for my taste. The m8 is sleek and I like the metal body vs the plastic samsung has been using for the past couple years.
Again, just my input from someone who left my tried and true Samsung s3 (and briefly S5).
^^ Good post. However, the Note 3 still reigns supreme.
Sent from my SGNote 3
You could trade if the person is willing to add some cash to it as well. But personally i prefer the S5.
Not sure where the idea of Android being harder to root comes from. Google is removing holes in the firmware but with unlockable bootloaders rooting is easy. It's Samsung and their obsession with locking and encrypting their bootloaders that make it hard. I have A Sony Z ultra and it was fairly easy to root of you are willing to lose your warranty. Same with the M8 anything but Verizon.

Unfortunately it's at&t & other carriers that requested the locked bootloader. They're really going after corporate customers hence the added security. T-Mo knows they don't really have a shot at the big accounts & therefore don't care about the bootloader.
Root is really what matters to me but it's a lot riskier without nandroid backups. I'm still using my T-Mo Note 3 for that reason. My S5 is a Samsung sponsored demo but if I could, I would trade it for a T-Mo version. Almost feels like a waste of time transferring everything & giving up root when I'll have the Note 4 in a few months.

You do realize that the main reason for this ATT only situation is that ATT locks down the boatloader?
The S5 certainly has root and many custom ROMs available if you start out with a S5 sold by another carrier. One pragmatic solution is to buy your S5 elsewhere e.g. TMB and have it unlocked. Then you can use it on ATT complete with a rooted, custom ROM.

5.1.1

Tbf they deserve hate they completely messed the note 4 around with 5.0 with even the note 3 getting it before I'm sure, as well as the s5. Now I'm pretty sure the s6 and s5 have 5.1 lollipop and one of Samsungs most expensive phones the note 4 doesn't even have it yet even though it is plagued with issues, cough cough battery, lag, recent apps lag.
It's not exactly an acceptable way to treat your consumer base when like me we paid 650 pound out right for the phone.. Which is a hell of a lot of money I might add, I'm half tempted to just get the s6 if they're just going to screw the note 5 around like this

It's just a bit weird that the note 4 hasn't gotten the update yet, when the Note Edge has. Something fishy going on and I guess it's Samsung assuming people will switch to the Note 5 just to get 5.1.1.

Maybe noone cares about what I'll say, but its my last Samsung phone. Come on, my last Note 2 was an epic telephone. This note 4 is dissapointing. And 5.0.1 is a failure. Battery drain, lags, etc. Even root and deleting some ****ty systeminstalled apps doesnt help him much... I think about the downgrading.
I hope the Snapdragon will get the update.

Some real drama queens around here. You know what is funny about updates? If they arrive quickly they are usually buggy and people complain OR they arrive slowly with minimal bugs and guess what? People complain.
Samsung has not given a proper date of when 5.1.1 will arrive, end of July was not an official statement at all.
I am on NEE POF2 5.0.1 on my N910F and it is running beautifully, no lag, battery is great even when using Download Booster with LTE & WiFi. The phone is stable.
My mother's month old S6 has just died and may require a motherboard replacement, same with her colleagues S6 Edge, both on 5.0.2, yet my Note 4 has been with me since launch with very usage and abuse and not yet failed me.
Blame Google, as even 5.1.1 doesn't fix most of the 5.0 Bugs, so I am guessing that Samsung is trying to patch everything up themselves.
We have not been abandoned.
I sold this phone, i'm with my z3 again, rocking 5.1.1, again 1.5 day battery life with 8 h sot.

R.i.p samsung

​I like touchwiz, i like its look, i like to do some modifications on it
i hate it because it isnt open source. i hate it because it is made by samsung. I hate samsung because they dont give a fck for their customers who Spent a lot of money to buy their high end device
If u dont understand what kind of bull**** i am talking about look at this post at sammobile

Tab S MM User manual spottet
I still do not accept that as the final answer. I won't accept it until the end of September or Samsung says it themselves and not some Facebook branch off.

I wouldn't hold my breath for a Samsung announcement about the devices they are not going to update.
Samsung will not update the Galaxy S7 to Nougat as well:

Ha.
Joke aside I'm not surprised by this, Sammobile said the Tab S would received MM no later than early August and we are already approaching September.

SamMobile didn't say we WOULD get it in August. They stated they believe it was most likely. I'm not really holding my breath for the update anymore, but I'm also not giving up entirely until September has come and gone.

well as expected from samsung we wont be getting MM .
what a bad news
Well I think we need to look at porting more roms to this device rather than just sitting on our hands.....I know that we have some very smart member here now lit the porting games begin........
Dang...I just bought a Tab S too... Why does it say "first generation Tab S's"? I thought there was only one generation. If not, could someone list which models are old and which are new. I have a SM-T707A
I am not going to lose my sleep over this. I use my Tab S as a portable TV screen, and for that purpose it works just fine, even with Lollipop. It has the latest versions of Fox, NBC, AMC, HBO, Netfix, Uverse, Youtube, as well as some other streaming apps. It runs the MX Player which plays pretty much any video format.

I believe they mean the Tab S is the first generation, the S2 is the second generation, etc.

Sorry for any offence please don't take it that way that is a bit vague of answer from Samsung chat plus it says all products which is not correct

That's true, but it also isn't outright claiming we're not getting it. I took it as all Tab S products since that's the device we were talking about.

That's why I'm not giving up on my small sliver of hope until September has come and gone. Once that happens; we'll have our official answer.
