Got my go yesterday and I absolutely love this thing. And battery life is better than I expected. Can't wait until I can respond to hangouts from the gear though. And vibe and ring together...other than that...I'm in love

Yeah it's great! Do you have the new update with all the notifications instead of texts and non Gmail emails only?
No...I'm waiting on the stock update...I'm not rooting or flashing anything

The issue is because they updated the gear manager for the phone but not the gear software itself yet for the United States. There are fixes for this in this forum do a search for Official update for the Gear November 15, or look for a header with that in it. Basically the fix is putting the UK or British version of the gear software onto the gear and the notification start working again. You do not even have to route the gear to accomplish this. Sorry I'm too new to know how to post links to those articles but searching you'll find plenty.
Thx

i think the only way to see pictures is using custom rom on gear, and 3rd party email client.
you won't get pics in your notifications.
That sucks...cause it won't show the email either if it has pics
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N900A using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Yeah, it's one thing I hope they improve on one day
Wow...if I cant read email,on stock device...its somewhat pointless. Why make a "smart watch" that cant even show pictures
Sent from my GT-P5113 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
It is limited by whatever in displayed in notification you can see in the dropdown list of phone
I don't understand what you are saying..Brendo...how can I get it to display pics from email on my gear

Hey guy's. I've been having trouble with this app constantly force closing on me. Is anyone else having this issue? It happened on my note1 and now it's happening on my new note 3. Thanks in advance.

The xda premium 4 app is working flawlessly for me.
It was working ok until about a month and a half ago. Sure hope someone fixes it.

The last time I went to XDA through an app I used Tapatalk instead of XDA because I already use Tapatalk for all the other forums. I did buy the XDA app to support XDA, I just don't like keeping so many different apps all for forums. I found that the Tapatalk app doesn't crash when I browse on it, if you wanted to try that?
i've noticed that it crashes when you are giving to many inputs i.e. tapping too much. If you avoid this, the app works well.
There is also an issue of tap detection. when i try to reply to someone i have to tap on the post below the one desired. :/ but it doesnt crash the app... so thats a plus right?

Appreciate it. Yeah, I've never quite gotten used to Facebook, still keep forums I've been on for years.... Tapatalk is a really nice way to organize them all. The only thing that drives me nuts is that when you go to download a file off of a forum it opens a browser which kind of disrupts the flow, but I think XDA app did the same thing. That would be a tremendously useful thing for the XDA app to do is manage XDA downloads, but for all I know it does that now, I haven't used the XDA app in awhile. These ATT ROMs are around a gig sometime... Hell to download on a mobile phone just because so many things seem to be able to break the download. And the download managers seem to hiccup sometimes with the site that are primarily used for hosting, don't know why.
I bought the xda premium app a couple years ago to show my support. But it does suck on this phone. Doesn't show pictures corectly. The search function is not very helpful. When I open it if it's been in the the background for a while it won't connect to the server to refresh. I have to close it and open it again. Also when leaving the app the animation lags really bad. I always thought it ironic that the XDA app was so buggy lol
**side note- I don't know the first thing about making apps or how hard they are to debug and make run smoothly on all devices. So I'm not hating. Just throwing it out there...

Thinking about rooting my samsung galaxy gear, but wanted to know if I plan to root it and flash a custom rom will I still be able to receive notifications? Ive been told if you flash a rom you will not be able to receive notifications because you will no longer be able to add gear manager. Someone please give me your input

not true - got mine rooted and running null - getting notifications - on top of that, if you use atooma you can make your gear smarter. I have it setup so i get notification whenever i get an email, when there is rain forecasted in the weather (i bike to work) and many other things

You need gear manager for phone to communicate fully with watch. Otherwise it's just a fancy Bluetooth headset
Has anybody tried getting the galaxy gear working with the Note 3 running a custom AOSP ROM?
Sent from my SM-N900T using xda app-developers app
Any rom/phone can have limited connection. You need touchwiz for afl the bells and whistles

Cool.... I know that stuff like s voice won't work.... But I don't care for it.... So thank you for your input :thumbup::thumbup:
Sent from my SM-N900T using xda app-developers app
If you don't have touchwiz the native notifications won't work either.
Before I got my Nexus 5, which is paired now, I used AOSP on my Note 2. It was limited, as previously stated, but worked well enough for me.
