will it work on s4 with wanamlite rom (tw rom) with no bugs?
you don't know what whatsapp is? facebook just bought them with 19 billion dollars.
that is messaging app by network, how can i be sure that it will work on my phone?
I should never of answer you thread.
Ok so it works on your custom ROM, why ask?
I can not be bothered with custom ROMs, myself.
Ok whatsapp, do I care what facebook paid for it?
I rarely use facebook too.
You get it working you can select more notifications and enable notifications from whatsapp.
You want somebody to tell you it works on their device it is not going to be me because I will never install whatsapp.
I heard of whatsapp but for me it is useless.
Hangouts work and is good enough for me.
What I find funny is people willing to take a chance on warranty, blow the Knox and do not care if they install boatware like whatsapp.
.... it is irony.

with stock kernel and ROM, Gear Fit works fine with Samsung Galaxy S4. Only the automatic unlocking by near doesn't. It is either S5 feature or depends newer Gear Fit Manager app on G5
WhatsApp doesn't support notifications with Gear Fit, but Facebook Messenger does. So, why to use WhatsApp when Facebook Messenger works and is not so battery hungry than WhatsApp is
dunno if you are a fitness person. I use it to light watch and for notifications. If you wanna try cheap smart watch, the Samsung Galaxy Gear 1 got the Tizen kernel and the price is about 99 dollars/ euros. The Galaxy Gear 1 name is after flash burning Samsung Gear. "Galaxy" on name means the Android battery hungry version.

Yes every notification you get on your phone also works with Gear Fit. But you have to activate the apps on Gear Fit Manager.

אני יכול להגיד לך ככה:
גיר פיט הוא ממש קל, אך אין הרבה מפתחים ואי אפשר לדבר בו. אפשר לראות רק התראות ולנתק על אנשים. גם אם מתקשרים אפשר להחזיר סמס מבין ה10 שאת מגדירה בטלפון.
יש כמה אפליקציות טובות כמו חדשות באנגלית, להתקשר מהגיר פיט דרך הטלפון ועוד כמה גימיקים...
בגיר 2 ניו יש את כל זה חוץ מזה שזה קל וממש נוח. אך יש בזה הרבה יותר עיצובים לשעון הפנימי ואפשר לדבר איתי. הוא גם כמעט אותו מחיר.
ויש מחשבון, הוראות למקום מסוימים ועוד אפליקציות...
אני הייתי הולך על הגיר 2 ניו אך קיבלתי את הגיר פיט ממשהו ב600 שקל.

I've samsung galaxy s wifi 5 media payer. For some reason android market is not showing whatsapp messenger, how can i get that one.
I have the 4.0 and I can't get that app either. What you can do is go to 4shared.com and get and download it from there. just search for whatsapp apk.

Not true. I have the Galxy S Player 4.0 and I have a messaging app called Heywire(which is in the market), and they give you a free phone number for messaging only.
I said most...whatsapp and other popular apps require a phone number

That's true. Whatsapp for android needs a real mobile number, so it doesn't work on the Player. However, Whatsapp works in iPod touch (¬¬).
Flash Meticulus' rom R5 and you are able to use whatsapp.
If whtsapp cant confirm your mobile number, just ask for a callback to your phone number

I really really want to have Whatsapp on my Samsung Galaxy player 4.0 because on my smartphones in the past I have always had it and I have family all over the world.
Long story short, I made an account on 4shared, downloaded Whatsapp, and now it tells me that I cannot use it since I don't have a phone number.
How on earth do you ask for a callback? Is it just impossible to have Whatsapp on a phoneless smartphone (it's like an iTouch).
I emailed Whatsapp as well but they're having technical problems with their technical support (not sure I understand that).
Any advice?

Basically you need to have a hacked framework and give your Galaxy Player a faked device ID (IMEI no.). Then Whatsapp will think that it is a phone and let you get through the installation. The usual SMS verification will still fail because Galaxy Player is not really a phone. However, after the SMS failure, Whatsapp will offer you the callback option.
There are a number of custom ROMs for 5.0 have the hack but I am not sure about 4.0.
Klin's Klassic has a version with the deviceid hack but it's not the latest version... It's included in R3 but removed in all later versions

Hi everybody,
Is posibble install Flesky keyboard on Gear Fit, now is available for Gear 2 and i think is amazing to respond a Whatsapps message without Smartphone.
Thank´s
Short answer No
Reason is the Gear Fit does not run on the same OS as the Gear Neo or Gear 2
The Gear Fit has a real time operating system, no development kit possible.

Short Answer YES!
We know it is RTOS but also the Gear 2/Neo needs the smartphone to be connected to.
So on Gear fit you get a message and instead of quick replying you go to app connect> Flesky and respond!

Check out "Notifications for Gear S". You can download it from the regular Google Playstore, and it allows you to answer texts/whatsap/viber, etc. I don't know if it will work with your specific phone, but it's only $1.25 I think, and does more than the native notifications do.
ETA: Sammy also offer it in their app store, but the dev says update cycles take much longer there.
Thanks for your fast reply xendula & _Dejan_ ,
I think that on android 5.0 don't work the "Gear Manager" because I follow step by step the instructions and don't work for me. When I open the app Gear Manager, this stopped with an error. I think that this error is produced by Android Lolipoop.
Tomorrow, I try with motorola moto g to view if it is posible work with this smartphone.
Thanks for all !

Hi,
Can someone upload .wgt files for most usefull applications or widgets for gear s that users which have non samsung phones can use some applications/widgets on their watch?
I like design of Samsung gear S watch more than LG or Motorola smartwatch but I don't wan't change current Sony z1 phone only for reason that I can install additional widgets/apps on watch... Notifications already work as must but for example I would like setup:
Endomondo
Evernote
Alarm

THIS is true you can blame that on the DEVs most of the Gear S apps are just re branded Gear 2 apps it seems as if these app developers don't even own a Gear S they just make an app and assume Tizen is universal well it is not and they need to actually make apps to fit and work properly with our Gear S
Hello guys,
So, i just bought a Samsung Gear S for my HTC One, and yes i know this is not 100% fully working, but i'll get a Samsung Alpha in few months.
Well, i followed your tutoriels and guides, and nothing went as planned.
The most embarassing thing is that i can't acces the Samsung Gear Store : is this a normal thing ? Or did i just mess up somewhere ?
Surprinsingly, S Voice function works 100%. I can't control my music tho. And the phone calls works very fine.
So, do you guys have any idea how i could fix this store issue ? Cause i would like to install something like Opera Mini or some other apps.
Thank you for reading, and sorry for my poor english
You need a Samsung phone that you can pair with the Gear s in order access the Samsung app store to install apps on the watch.
Best to find a friend with a compatible phone , pair it with theirs, then add whatever apps you want.
Or go to an electronics store that has compatible phones on display and pair your watch with one of them if you can.

I have an HTC M8 too and tried the workaround. This caused various issues and a few things didn't work post install of the Gear Mgr. I wanted something better and needed access to the gear store. And the last thing I wanted was be forced to buy and use a Samsung phone.
This isn't for everybody, but here's my fix...
I just bought a cheapo Samsung Gear S compatible phone off eBay and turned it into a notification relay point. You can get one for as little as ~$70:
Plug in it, connect to Wi-Fi, download Gear Mgr, clone the apps/email (from HTC) you want Notifs from, and set it up to remotely send the chosen app's notifications. For your HTC's texts, there are a handful of SMS forwarding apps on Play that work great. One app allows for you to reply with the native mobile # just as if it came from your HTC. Last step, set your watch to be standalone.
Everything works, including S-voice.
Thanks a lot guys ! A friend of mine has à Galaxy Note 2, i think it will be fine !
I'll keep you in touch if anyone wants to know what happened next !

Could you explain this a bit more, please?
I have someone who would love to get the Gear S but is a hard core iPhone user. I guess he could get a cheapo Galaxy phone, connect it to Wifi at home, but I don't understand the clone part, and how the cheapo gets the HTC notifications.
Guessing it may not work at all with an iPhone, but still interested in understanding the process.
Samsung could have really tapped that market by releasing a Gear Manager app on the Apple app store, and advertised a bit more.
No one knows what's on my wrist, but once explained, a lot of people would be potential customers if only the friggin Galaxy phone wasn't a prerequisite.

What you need to do is basically put the same apps on the relay device as your daily driver. Sign in to each app and then go to the Gear Mgr and make sure that app has a check mark.
As far as email. Use the stock Samsung email app and/or GMail . Enter all of your account info and, again, make sure the Gear Mgr is set.
So basically, all your doing is taking a dummy S compatible phone and creating a clone of your phone's app and email configuration.
Not sure if the iStore has an app that will forward your texts...but, hopefully, they should. If not, Google voice is another way to go.
