How to install Android Wear launcher on your Galaxy Gear! (Ported from Android Wear)

I found a way to install Android Wear launcher in my Galaxy Gear!
(It is ported from Android Wear).
1. Go to Settings in your Galaxy Gear.
2. Tap Gear Info and check USB Debug.
3. Connect it to your computer, make sure the battery is not low!
4. Download fastboot.zip from attachments and extract it (Make sure you saved it in your Downloads folder) (do not change the name of files)
5. Download Android Wear Launcher from attachments (make sure it is in fastboot folder) (do not change the name of file!)
6. Move apk file to fastboot folder (where you extracted fastboot)
7. Download Samsung USB Drivers for mobile phones (google it)
8. After installing Samsung USB Drivers, unplug gear and plug it again.
9. Open CMD (Command Prompt) as administrator, type
cd Downloads and press enter.
cd fastboot and press enter.
adb devices and press enter.
You will get usb debugging in your gear after typing adb devices in cmd. Press OK in your gear.
after typing adb devices your device will show up in cmd.
type chmod 755 * and press enter.
type adb install "com.google.android.wearablepreview.app-KKWT-1077241.apk" and press enter.
wait and the apk will be install in your gear.
if you did everything right, command prompt will show 'success'.
Open your gear and go to apps, find Android wear and open it. You will now use Android wear launcher in your gear!
You can do the same method to install other apks, i installed nova launcher in my gear too.
Thanks for reading! If it is helped press thanks button

Can we get a few screenshots?

1. This requires Android 4.4 - Samsung's Android version wasn't 4.4 and f0mey's null is 4.2.2 so it can not be installed
2. This is old. Dates back to March
3. It's only a launcher, so likely will not have any of the features everyone wants from Wear (Voice, etc)
I think you got too excited and posted this without doing it yourself.

Wearable widgets looks like a cool concept, too bad its only for Tizen for now.

simple solution is downgrade back to android, install null23, then install google launcher with now and you have android wear lmao very simple im running it now and everything works

Help
I did as you said, cmd keeps giving the error: protocol fault <no status>. after i enter in adb devices. any help would be appreciated. Thank you!

This will work with gear 2 Neo? I liked have a wear launcher

tizen

Change language !!!

Hi guys!
I bought the Galaxy Note 4 (SM-N910T), and it did not come with Portuguese language ('m from Brazil).
I've tried to translate app's (morelocale2) already replaced the ROM for the newest, but it worked!
Is there any way to put the language?
Is there any custom ROM or not, that works for my model?
Thank you!

Additional language added for Note 4 SM-N9100G without root
Hi,
I face the same problem with a Note 4 SM-N9100G trying to install a additional local language without to root the phone and to affect the warranty. The solution found on Internet is given below:
1. On Windows PC download and install the latest Android SDK Manager (Google for it).
2. Unlock the "Developer Option" on your Note 4 device.
3. Install MoreLocale 2 from Google Play on your Note 4 device.
4. On your PC go on the <Platform - Tools> subfolder from SDK Manager folder and launch a command prompt window here (press simultaneously shift and right click then select from drop menu).
5. Connect the Note 4 to PC though the USB cable on USB debugging mode (accept the debugging action from your PC on the popping window from your phone).
6. To ensure that the devices are properly communicating type <adb devices> on the Command Prompt window from your PC and you shall see your device listed.
7. Launch the adb shell from same Command Prompt window with the command <adb shell> then enter
Note: the top of the command prompt window shall indicate "adb shell" mode upon command input.
8. Input the following command line exactly as is given in the Command Prompt window then press enter (take care on CAPS LOCK):
pm grant jp.co.c_lis.ccl.morelocale android.permission.CHANGE_CONFIGURATION
9. If you don't receive any error on the command prompt window then you manage to unlock the MoreLocale 2 application on your phone.
10. Go to your Note 4 launch MoreLocale 2 and select the language you want to load, set it as default then you are done.
Hope that this will help.

guide is updated please go through

Tried the minimal version with stock settings (didn't change anything). The focus and exposure on stock camera app seems better.

Is there any chance to reverse Step 4 : Removing Stock camera. I would like to keep the original camera app (but already uninstall the camera app). Thanks.

Here's the way out.

Enable Android 10 Gestures on Android 10 Beta on Max M1

So, recently Asus rolled out an official Android 10 Beta for our Zenfone Max M1. But, as we installed the Beta 10 on our devices, we noticed that Android 10 Gestures; the only highlight of Android 10, was absent on it. So, I searched up Google and got a working method for the same. Thanks to 9to5Google for this article https://9to5google.com/2019/05/08/how-to-enable-and-use-android-q-fully-gestural-navigation/.
Requirements:
1. Android 10 Beta on Max M1.
2. A PC with Proper ADB and Phone Drivers.
How to enable Android 10 Gestures on Android 10 BETA:
1. Open Settings, go to About Phone and continuously tap for around 6-8 times for enabling Developer Options.
2. Then go to Developer Options and enable USB Debugging.
3. Then connect Phone to PC using USB Cable and open Command Prompt on PC.
4. Now run this command and allow the popup on Phone.
Code:
adb devices
5. Now for enabling Android 10 Gestures, run the following command:
Code:
adb shell cmd overlay enable com.android.internal.systemui.navbar.gestural
6. Android 10 Gestures will be now enabled.
In a similar way, you can enable two-button navigation too.
Do note that, in order to change to any other Navigation method, you need to disable the existing Navigation and then enable the your desired navigation using commands. Your Navigation method won't change UNTIL YOU DISABLE EXISTING NAVIGATION METHOD (Don't disable 3-button Navigation).
Commands to enable:
Gesture based navigation:
Code:
adb shell cmd overlay enable com.android.internal.systemui.navbar.gestural
Two-Button Navigation:
Code:
adb shell cmd overlay enable com.android.internal.systemui.navbar.twobutton
3-Button Navigation:
Code:
adb shell cmd overlay enable com.android.internal.systemui.navbar.threebutton
Commands to disable:
Gesture Based navigation:
Code:
adb shell cmd overlay disable com.android.internal.systemui.navbar.gestural
Two-Button Navigation:
Code:
adb shell cmd overlay disable com.android.internal.systemui.navbar.twobutton
3-Button Navigation (HIGHLY NOT RECOMMENDED):
Code:
adb shell cmd overlay disable com.android.internal.systemui.navbar.threebutton
The navigation method you enable will also work after you reboot. If you resetted your device, you have to follow this guide again to enable gestures. I am trying to find any method for Rooted users, kindly don't spam below. If you have any doubts, drop them below or ask me in our official Telegram Group.
If it worked for you, please hit the thanks button ?.

How to get Google Discover on your home screen

Note: I've only tried this on Oppo Find X2 Lite running Color OS 11.1 (Android 11), and I'm not responsible if you screw up something.
Note: you don't have to revert before every monthly update. But just to be safe, revert back before a major software update (like the Android 12 update).
This method doesn't require root nor a custom recovery. it's simple and you can revert back if you wish.
The reason why we can't get the Google Discover Feed on the home screen is because of Oppo's Smart Assistant app. So we'll be uninstalling it (kinda, see Note 2 at the end of the post), as soon as that's done, you'll get the Discover feed on the left page of your home screen (of course you'll need to have the Google app installed). If you would like to get Smart Assistant back, follow the steps in the To Revert back section.
By the way, if you don't want to bother with Command prompt, you can always just use a custom launcher like Lawnchair, that will give you the ability to use Google Discover without any ADB commands. If you want the safest route, go with this.
Steps:
1- Enable Developer Options (by going to Settings>About Phone>Version then clicking Build Number a bunch of times).
2- On your PC, download Platform Tools from this link: https://developer.android.com/studio/releases/platform-tools .
3- Extract the zip file to a folder.
4- Copy the path to that folder, then open open Command Prompt as an administrator and type "cd (the path you copied)" (example: cd C:/platform-tools ).
5- Enable ADB Debugging (by going to Settings>Additional Settings>Developer options then enable USB debugging).
6- Plug your phone to your PC, then change the connection method on your phone to "Transfer Files / Android Auto".
7- A pop-up saying " Allow USB debugging? " will appear, click Allow.
8- On your the command prompt window on your PC, type "adb devices" , you should see: "[your serial number] device".
9- Now type
Code:
adb shell pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.coloros.assistantscreen
and hit enter, wait for it to finish.
10- Reboot your phone, you should see the Discover Feed on the the left screen. Enjoy !
To Revert back:
If you want to bring back Smart Assistant, repeat steps 4 through 8, then type in command prompt
Code:
adb shell cmd package install-existing com.coloros.assistantscreen
Notes:
- After you're done, I recommend going back to Settings>Additional Settings>Developer options and disabling USB Debugging.
- The command doesn't actually delete the app from the phone, it just removes it for the main user, i.e. you.
- the monthly system updates don't bring back Smart Assistant, but I'd recommend reverting back before updating to Android 12 (if we're getting it ).
Full credit goes to @klanbo78 for this, thank you so much !

Thanks for the guide!
Have you been able to test it out on ColorOS 12?

I still didn't receive the ColorOS 12 update on my device. Although I can confirm that this still works in the ColorOS 11.1 March 2022 update.
Have you managed to receive the ColorOS 12 update on this device? if so, would you mind mentioning from which country?
