Non-Samsung Gear Fit user here. I use it with a Nexus 5.
When I try to change the homescreen to a custom one, the device says "no app to crop image, on this device". I've tried using images sized perfectly to the GF resolution to no avail.
This leads me to believe that the fit is looking for the Touchwiz gallery first and foremost, regardless of image size.
I'm curious to know what the typical flow is for using custom photos and if any other non-Samsung GF user has had any luck in this arena.

Hi!
Hi think you need Samsung Gallery APK because I have a S4 and the GF app calls for the Samsung Gallery apk.

Thanks.
I got the same problem with Sony Xperia SP
Did you manage to solve it using the Samsung Gallery APK? Where can I get that?
I'll try later, that evening if a LG G2 can handle the Samsung SecGallery2013.apk, try'd one time to move it to systemapps but got a parsing error.
Maybe i have to delete the LG Gallery.apk or a deodexed SecGallery.apk is requiered, etc,..... ?!?!

U will find Samsung gallery in all deodexed S4, or S5 Roms under: /system/priv-app (just open the zip file)
EDIT: managed to install Samsung gallery on deodexed firmware but fc's on start.
Look for it on aptoide or mobogenie

Did anyone get custom wallpapers working on non-samsung devices in the meantime?
Use watch styler for fit and it's ok. I have a LG G2 et never problem. Apk find on play store
Alternative
Did anyone find an alternative? the clocks is only in 12H and the clocks are not that pretty. Would editing the preinstalled skins in Watch styler?
I don't like Watch Styler clocks at all, and I'd like to see the week day under the clock, so that's why I think we need something to be able to change the wallpapers or backgrounds in our Gear Fit.
I've got a Moto G.

here we go. stock apps from Galaxy Tab 7.7 that working in our Galaxy Tab 10.1.
Fully working
- Myfiles: this version has hide/show hidden files function in setting.
- Game Hub: not sure how to use it.
- Alarm clock: nice Alarm warning (check your mini app tray)
- Social Hub
- Photo Editor
- Calendar (check your mini app tray)
- Email (check your mini app tray)
All with dark-grey background theme. See photos to compare.
Half working
- Task Manager: fc on "Download" and "Storage" menu
- Task Manager widget: tab on it will direct you to Task Manager app, resizing it will cause fc.
WARNING:
BACKUP YOUR ORIGINAL APPS FIRST BEFORE REPLACING WITH THESE APPS
You can do that by renaming the apps with .bak at the end.
These apps are deodexed.
INSTRUCTION:
1. Make sure you are on TW Rom. Stock Android 3.2/4.0 might not working.
2. Root Access needed (some apps need copy-paste method into system/app directory)
If someone need another apk to try, make a request, i will post here.
Two apps that really need your attention:
1. Video Maker
2. Launcher
The video maker is slightly different as yogeshmha mentioned here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1498416
GT7.7 launcher comes with extra feature which is app folder, not in home screen but in app drawer! Watch here
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FUaurAFNrrA
DOWNLOAD:
1. As attached
2. or here: http://www.mediafire.com/?h7ttun2kai5tmt5
3. For Calendar app can found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=22738261&postcount=5
Screenshot for preview
ENJOY
Thanks to sk806 for the full rom.
UPDATE
New Samsung Appstore
- i think it's new as it different from one that available in our rom. Check the screenshot.
Email (exchange.apk + memail.apk included).
- this one quite tricky. you need to clear cache & data first on original apps, then replace those with these one in system/app. otherwise fc will happen.
- memail.apk if you want email shortcut appear in your mini app tray.
find apk in attachment.
the 7.7 launcher would be nice. i would love to have that folder feature.
yep..me too. it fc a lot. hope someone can work on it.

I was wondering, maybe throwing the phone.apk and stuff could let 10.1 and 8.9 tabs make phone calls? Or putting the 7.7 ROM itself?
I will attach the phone.apk later for anyone to try. I can't confirm as I own wifi version

Unfortunately simple replacing Phone does not work. I got full P6800 ROM, so will try tonight to replace more than a phone and flash modem from it, to see if there any difference, but i think Samsung put something deep in lib, to disable call for 10.1 Tab

good luck! meanwhile i noticed all those apks also included in p7510 rom...not sure the purpose..
I guess we just have to wait for Galaxy 10.1 Tab 2 to be released to the market. It's pretty much the same hardware as Tab 10.1, but have ICS and dial included. So we can rip the rom and put it to the tab 10.1.

How can i clear the chache $ data first ?? I tried to copy de apk files in in system/app but is not working ??
go to setting>application>manage application. tap on email n exchange app, clear cache and data. sure it will wipe out all your email account.
u need to setup your account back. copy paste email/exchange.apk I post here into your system/app directory. reboot then setup your account.
if u don't have / need exchange account then leave exchange apk

Whoo!! Completely forgot my login details since my last android device of htc hero.
I am not able to install the calendar app, is this bcos im on stock 3.2 rom which is not rooted or anything?
If yes, is there any alternative way to get it running without rooting?
Interesting. I just reinstall Overcam 2.3.1 and email start FC when i trying to replay by pressing to invoke keyboard. Never happens before. Does anybody experience tha same thing. Used to works fine. I clean the cash, and put email back to system/app using root explorer. Was working fine on Overcome 2.3
Aww TwLauncher force close....
The rest of the apps are fine though. Thanks.
Climbed all the forum and the gallery is not working anywhere. I tried with other models of Motorola, it's not working. Everywhere one problem "loading......."
Question!! Is there even a working gallery?????
I don't even use the stock gallery app since it is the most awful gallery app I have ever used.
I use QuickPic from the Android Market, it is a small app and it is the best gallery app I have ever used.. I know a lot of people loves it.
you should give it a try.
I also use the QuickPic(as a standalone application),but when photographed immediately want to see photos of a built-in gallery,but it does not work
stock gallery works fine for me

ok then you have a problem with something being corrupted..
I'm not sure if this would help but have you tried clearing the data from gallery under the menu/settings/apps/manage apps/all apps ??
if this doesn't help something is corrupted somehow.
I guess the phone UI has been localised by instructions from 4pda?
My friend bought Photon 4g recently and it have such modifications and broken stock gallery.
Yesterday i sbf-ed his phone, rooted, etc, and only apply ru_UA locale using morelocale2. Stock gallery works flawlessly.
I guess its an issue with something in additional localisation.

(This is copied from gear manager thread, but assume it works the same)
As of yet, it is not possible to get Gear working fully without a Samsung device running 4.3 TouchWiz rom
To install on other devices, make sure you put GearMangerStub.apk in system/app. Then you can install GearManager and the secondary apps (music and weather won't install without dedicated samsung apps also on your device). You will not get notifications and it is very limited, but it connects
Suspect the issue is related to tight integration with TouchWiz framework and Samsung apps

Updated this morning and was hoping it fixed the screwed up pedometer but clearly it didn't. I ran 2 miles and the fit said I did 2.3 miles. So still a good bit off. I don't see that it added the pushing the home button 3 times option. Not sure what the update was for yet.

I use an album called quick pic, you can "hide" folders which is handy because there is not a great deal I hate more than having album covers in my pictures folder.
Cannot create new folders though due to 4.4.4 sd write protection
Quick pic is very nice app, but it's really annoying when you have a lot of albums and you have to wait for thumbnails to load each time.

You just have to make it your default home app after installing, then it will work after launching.
Yeah I install it I get the which launcher do you want to use thing and i pick it but one to use it once incase of crashing, if I set it to always and it starts crashing i cant change launcher and I haven't rooted my phone

At my side it works, maybe you have some wrong APK file. Try to look on youtube for the guy xeetechcare he has posted a video about the Android Pie on SGS9 and there is the download for the home apk in the description.
Yeah I got that one but I think it wont work because I have an Exynos s9+ from Australia
Anyone know how to install on the Exynos
just simply instal the cloned apk and make it to the default home app as others said already! its working.
on exynos too
That's what I get
