My sister currently owns the S4 zoom and would like to use the Galaxy Gear with it but it is still running Android 4.2.2. I'm looking to root the Zoom to Android 4.3, preferably a slim rom, so that it can be compatible with the Galaxy Gear since Samsung has not released an official update or estimated time frame either. I've been researching how to root the Zoom as well as what roms are currently available and apparently support for the Zoom is very little.
Has anyone tried a rom that allows compatibility with the Zoom yet?
the s4 zoom is a phone with no market or future.
there are no developers to work on that phone.
I think it's a shame that the zoom has no future as it's a great device, albeit quite niche. Here's hoping that Samsung do eventually update to 4.3 so it will be compatible with the gear.

I agree it is quite a shame, I have the S4 and use the Gear and my sister really wants to use the Gear with her Zoom. I think the Zoom is a awesome device. It's designed for a very niche market and it seems like that market is being neglected. Samsung did mention when 4.3 was released that it would be coming to many of the Galaxy devices and the Zoom was included in that list, but there's no info on when to expect it.
With kitkat confirmed for the Zoom C105 does that mean Galaxy Gear will now work with the Zoom S4?
I see the latest firmware 4.2.2 has gear manager app on the system. Does this not work then?

i ordered the neo a few days ago so i hope it will work.
according to this:
http://www.samsung.com/global/microsite/gear/gear2neo_features.html
there is a support.
Just got my new gear version 1. Followed the instructions, installed gear manager and all working.

What instructions did you follow? The ones from the Gear itself on the startup screen?
Did you connect via NFC and the phone automatically went to the Samsung app store to download Gear Manager??
Just followed the instructions in the gear booklet. Turn on nfc and blue tooth on your phone. Touch the gear cradle to the back of the phone and just followed the on screen instructions.
Just read the the booklet and all will be fine

Thanks for replying, I saw your post in the other thread too.
This sounds good, can't wait to get hold of the S4 zoom now... I just hope that I like the shape and feel of it!
If your into photography you'll love it. I had a note1 which seems massive compared now. But got used to the Zoom s4 very quickly. And with the gear, you don't have to keep pulling your phone out of your pocket to see what the alert was.

Great tip I was waiting patiently for 4.4 as I had no idea it would work on 4.2.2. Thanks a lot!
Doesn't seem to be much reason to upgrade the s4 zoom to the k zoom now the gear works with it.

7510 is the wifi model. Run to the developmemt thread and flash galaxy task14
Get Visidon from the market for face unlock
Get Camera ICS+ to get panorama photo capability
Get Veetle for your movie viewing enjoyment
And that concludes my 2 cents

Ditto on the Task 14.

Good thread. I am looking to buy a tablet and the Samsung 7510 is on sale today. Thought about getting the Acer, but does not look like much development is going on over there. PLUS, with Samsung, I get the amoled screen
Been flashing my Vibrant, then Galaxy S2, and finding some great ROMS along the way. I only hope there are some great ROMS for the 7510.

Like I said in your previous thread buddy You need the tegra2 plugin to make proper use of the core's since by default it feel's rushed?
These may seem like a silly questions, however I was watching the premium suite and one of the things I saw was some kind of 3D birthday card app - My first question is where is it? I have upgraded to ICS and I am having a difficult time finding it. My second question is, does the person receiving one of these cards also need to have this app on their phone?
Thank you in advance for any help.
The app is called My Story. To the best of my knowledge, the recipient needs to have the app as well, but I could be wrong.

Yeah, the person you are sending it to has to have the app and be a friend of yours on it. How many people have the note though :/ seriously....

I have to download it from market manually on my phone and then my friend's. The above information is all correct. Neat app, but a little restricting in its use.

I just got the official ICS update here in Canada...
I tried to test out the My Story App on my note and on my dad's note both running stock ICS that got released today but we were both able to send without any error to each other except we don't seem to receive the letter... Does anyone else have this problem or might know how to fix this? Tried on both Wifi and on data (connections are both really strong) so it is not internet problem.
Thank you.

I believe this to require more processing power than this phone has. I.E. the first phone to offer this was the S3 which was quad core, we have dual but must say when i had the S3 i never used it. The zoom has decent multitasking so i still don't see the need for multi window.
Retard alert* no kil43 galaxy note 2 had it. Was then made for s3 by DEVS. Not officially Samsunh. Multi window was on note 2 first.

I just picked one up today at best buy today to scratch the itch that I've had for a while now. Idk if many like the idea but I'll give my initial impressions.
First off pro and con
* the band it comes with. Reason being is the one I got(which surprised me since I thought it would come with the rubber one) is metal and no one could get the links out. I am the definition of a skinny person. I had to buy the tool which arrives tomorrow.
Pros
* I like the screen size and being touch. (I was debating between the pebble also) looks good enough to satisfy.
* the notifications work better than I thought. The vibration when you get a text fb or any sort of notification is nice since I rarely feel it in my pocket.
*can control the play music app through the watch so I don't have to mess with the phone wile driving
Con's
* Facebook extension if you just choose the ppl you want it to show up doesn't seam to stay logged in.
*still skeptical since I was on the fence about getting one. Maybe a few days with it I'll start to enjoy it.
If you have questions I'll try to answer them for you

Thanks
Either a 9300 rom was flashed on a 9305 phone or the phone is some kind of odd fake. What does the sticker under the battery say?
Tapped with Tapatalk on my GT-I9300 running rooted and debloated stock 4.3.
i think sticker is on the back of lcd panel and i recently replaced it (it broke) everything seems to be fine except wifi signal strength. Camera quality is as it should be. once i went to the shop for a flip cover and i9300 cover did not fit and he told me that it is a Korean set.
Oh. Then i have no idea
Tapped with Tapatalk on my GT-I9300 running rooted and debloated stock 4.3.
Have you any idea how to update it to 4.3 (currently on 4.1.2)? I checked for updates through mobile and it says your mobile device is up to date.
Unfortunately no, if it is a Korean variant i don't know which firmware is for you

Lol,it's as strange as the HTC One which my friend just got.
Believe me or not,that HTC One has touchwiz in software department,red hardware buttons,5 mp camera.

Sounds like a Chinese counterfeit (both the s3 and the one). Where did you buy it? Did it sound too cheap?

Just open the back cover of the phone and capture a picture of it and post it. It'll be more easier for everybody to tell which variant it is.

Go to Google Play, search for "phone INFO samsung" - it wil tell you model, imei, ROM version, CSC and few other details (including, presumably, if it is a fake or not).
Ok guys I found out My model its SHV-E210L. Its 4G LTE but is it International? I mean can the service be used anywhere? And also if i install stock 4.3 rom will it be in Korean?

There is a thread in general for your model, you can't use i9300 firmwares.
