Folks,
New Verizon customer, now s.t. Verizon's data limits. Monitoring Data Usage via <Settings> <Data Usage> and noticing that there's an app/process that accounts for 25% of my data usage MTD, and, unlike the other apps that are recognizable (Google Play, NY Times, Facebook, etc.), I have no idea what this app is or does.
It's labelled as 'Unified Daemon(EUR)'. I've frozen it for now using TB, but I'd prefer to know what it is and why it's consuming from my data plan allowance. Anyone know?
Thx!
*bump*
I am having the same issue on my S4...any ideas?

by way of follow-up...I froze the app using Titanium B/up a couple weeks ago and have experienced no unusual issues. As the poster above mentions, I believe it may be related to one of the default-loaded 'widget' apps, perhaps Yahoo News or Yahoo Finance; I've also frozen these, as I don't use them.
While investigating this issue, I also came across a recommendation for an app called Greenify, which I now highly recommend. It's kind of a fail-safe in that it basically allows you to prohibit apps from running in the background while still allowing you to use them when you'd like (unlike freezing or deleting).
It is boatware WeatherWidgetDaemon.apk
Everyone can restrict background access by going into Data usage, clicking the app you are interested in, and then thick Restrict background data.
You don't need an extra app for that.
This unified Daemon sucker used about 3MB in one day that's something. I also enabled weather in my S Planner calendar, I wonder if it uses extra data to download weather info data or it uses the same data as the widget.
But are you sure this sucker only handles weather data?
It is a unified Daemon and i am testing to fix the issue now. I Just cleared the data for it after the 4.3 update and restarted. Im going to see if i get the same issue.
Update: 2 seconds later after the restart and its fixed. Just go to applications manager and clear the data for the Unified Daemon(EUR) towards the end of the list

This issue started after the Samsung update. I tried this in January when the process used over 2 GB of data between 2am and 6am when it ran the battery down and shut the phone off. The service turned itself back on and kept using data, so I disabled it by turning it off. After the new billing cycle began, I tried turning it back on, this time it used 250 MB of data after I went to bed one evening. Clearing the data does nothing to stop this from using massive amounts of data. I would like for this to be fixed, however, because with it off, the Briefing alarm doesn't update the weather and it no longer reads the news stories. This was never a problem until the latest Samsung OS update. Is there an estimated date when this will be fixed? My favorite feature of the phone is the briefing alarm which has been disabled by stopping this Unified Daemon (EUR).
Seems something to do with a game called ingress
I installed this game an noticed huge data consumption next day. I think this game Ingress uses background data which uses - Unified Daemon(EUR) for its updates or whatever.
I found out that the app is used for samsung weather widget...i recommend you to delete it in case of huge data usage
Last night in just a couple of hours, the unified daemon (eur) consumed 1gb of data - my monthly subscription gone! galaxy s4, 2015/10/16
Does anybody know of any apps that will have compatibility with the samsung watches for spinning/cycling class? The current cycling app is completely useless because there is no option for stationary cycling, it just keeps searching for your gps movement which of course there is none. For example the "spinning indoor cycling" app on the play store has compatibility with tons of HR monitors but for some reason samsung is not one of them???
I use the running mode for step class and zumba. Maybe it would work for spin as well.

I have a Galaxy Tab Pro 8.4 and have spent hours and hours trying to get FWG or S Health to work. I finally came across a FWG version that says it is now superseded by S Health and provides a link to update.
After updating I went through the first few screens but got the dreaded "S Health has stopped" after the restore portion of the initial app setup. Thought I was back to square one but I took a chance and went to /data/app and found com.sec.android.app.shelath-5.apk.
Clicked on it and it went straight to the Health app. All is now magically working. The -5 must come from the install procedure, I have seen -2, -3 etc and they seem to get updated whenever a re install happens . Basically whatever shealth apk that is in /data/app is a good candidate. If you get the force close try to re-install, do not clear data or it will go through the data restoration process again. Once you are over that step you should be good.
I tried changing profile and again got "S Health has stopped". Tried the install apk trick again and back to working S Health. Doesn't make sense, been a software engineer for 13 years and I can't understand how this is working.
Some points:
I have tried so many combinations it is not funny. These are working for me:
Gear Fit Manager 1.88.090122, S Health 3.5.1.0693.
I have no health service whatsoever. I have Xposed framework installed.
I have root access but otherwise stock rom.
S Health still has issues, steps trail the watch by 200 or so even though the sync has just happened. At least FWG was accurate when I could get it working but it never showed and historical data. S Health does. The main screen shows 67% motionless sleep but if you go to the graph page it says 52% motionless.
I just went for a very short walk but no heart rate data showed up. The exercise did.
The FWG version that upgrades to S Health is here
http://m.mox8xom.store.aptoide.com/...healthlite/15000693/7683445/Fitness with Gear
You will need to get Aptoide to install this.
This will not work on non samsung devices and may well not work for you at all. Remember that the special sauce is obtained by installing FWG from the link, proceed with upgrade to S Health, go through app setup which will likely crash at the end of the restore data part. At that point install s health found in the /data/app folder. Recommend Titanium backup once you have a working version.
Good Luck, I had nearly given up after so much effort but glad I persevered. I still hate samsung
Got update today on Nike app, says syncs with shealth. Don't see how or where to sync
You need the update of s health as well. .. Just got it installed on my note 4. Now I see nike+ integrated in s health...
Thanks. Dumb q. How do you get the shealth update? My galaxy store doesn't show my apps some lollipop
I Dont see anything about sheal in the Nike + running app or s health and they're both updated
I updated everything and I see nothing.
Can you please tell us what to do?
S Health is not a simply app update. Samsung managed to create segmentations on S Health, e.g. each different phone models see different versions of S Health only. My Galaxy Alpha only sees S Health 3.5 that was last updated on Jan 2015.
I downloaded the new apk and updated by myself. Yes, now Nike is in S Health.

I don't know where to download it. My phone shows S Health app in Galaxy app store when it was on 4.4.4. But now with 5.0.2, it no longer shows. S Health is not a simple app to update. It depends on all kind of Samsung services to work. Samsung managed to get million different version of S Health targeting million different models of Samsung phone. I typically just wait and once in a while Samsung will push the S Health update to my phone.
Or you can search for S Health APK but keep in mind it may not work for you specific phone.
Odd thing. Updated to lollipop on my Note 4. S-Health is version 4.1.1.0037. It also now shows up in the Google Play Store as well as the Galaxy Apps store.
Casual jogging.
I've been using Gear S and Nike+ for running on a weekly basis. Here are some battery saving tips I have developed. My watch has no SIM card, so no battery drain that way. I use it simply as a GPS distance-measuring + MP3 player over BT mix.
1) Go to Settings just before a run and turn on "GPS". Usually it gets a signal pretty quickly. Then go to "motions" and disable all. Also, go to S Heath and disable the Pedometer.
2) If you jog with musicConnect your BT headphones. Turn on the Music from the Music player, as Nike does not know how to shuffle (whatever, Nike).
3) Go into Nike+ app, decline Music and Cheer requests. Wait a couple minutes, start your run and watch for the green GPS dot to appear.
When all goes as planned, I get more than two hours battery life (estimated). Went down from 90% to 40% battery life during an 1:25 hour 10 mile run. In theory, if you run fast enough Half-Marathon should be no problem, and if you do not use BT for Music at all, then it can probably go more than 3 hours on a single charge with Motion and Pedometer off. Good enough for casual jogging.
This watch is awesome for casual running. Share your tips, if you have any! Thanks!

There is a Running feature in S Health.
For those that updated, can you still use Nike+ or do you now need to use sHealth, because Nike is integrated into it?
I run every day, and switched from sHealth to Nike+ 2 months ago because the GPS signal would take forever to lock in sHealth. How are things after the update? Is sHealth faster? Nike+ slower?
I keep using the NIKE+ for running, but after the update GPS took about 5-7 minutes to lock...will retry again today or tomorrow.

Thank you thank you!! I have not even looked into possibly updating until I hear user feedback, as I was afraid it may slow down the GPS. Can't wait to hear back from you or others after you next run.
Is anything else new or different?
One more question: does Nike now track your HR? On my Gear S, it never did. Just wondering if that has changed since the update.
Thanks!
HR works for me sometimes, depending on how sweaty my hand is + hair . But it is imprecise, as far as I gather.
GPS lock now takes forever. .. ran yesterday and it pretty much skipped the first 750 meters + fooled around with the watch 5 mins beforehand. It still counts the distance though. I never carry the phone with me though.

Thanks strikey17. Is there any benefit to the upgrade that you can see, then? Sounds to me like I should make sure it does not install, if it only slows down the GPS.

How Can I use S health in my Gear S2 to running then sync data with nike+ App?
Nothing to do with the watch app. Nike+ phone app now supports sync data into S Health phone app. Not the other ways around. Your watch S Health app already sync data with S Health app on the phone. So here is how it goes:
Nike+ watch app -> Nike+ phone app->S Health phone app
S Health watch app -> S Health phone app

Do you know an app that allows you to do repetitions (interval run) based on time, distance, speed/pace, heart rate and register GPX with GPS track by laps?
As this example for GARMIN FENIX 3:

I don't, sorry
Popular sleep monitor/alarm Sleep as Android apparently pushes a sleep tracking app to Wear devices automatically. I don't know if you can obtain that and sideload it?

newbie question about barometer.
Just received my Amazfit, so likely it is locked? I want to side load one very specific application. I would like an alitimeter with either dial and needle or big fat numbers showing altitude that is based on the internal barometric pressure sensor. (for flying powered paraglider). The accuracy and update rate of the gps would likely be too low, but I can see from the barometer display that it is quite accurate and can sense the pressure change by moving only 1 or 2 feet up and down. I would also like to be able to "lock" on this screen once it is opened so it doesn't automatically return to the main watch screen.
Thanks for any help you can provide.

Bummer. I let it update Saturday when I received it. I'm on 1.3.3a. Does this mean I can't even side load a program?
Nop it means that atm you can't update to a dev-rom or get root.
Sideloading doesn't work for 99% of apps out there, so don't get your hopes up.

I know I'm speaking to some very smart guys.... Perhaps If I buy someone a ham sandwich (or $20), they can write an app that reads the barometer and converts to altitude specifically to fit in the format required by the Amazfit.
please update the list and add Watch Droid Assistant

I have 1.3.3a stock firmware and side loading works for me. I successfully run pressure tracker. The app colors are not optimal for the watch and the sensor stopped responding at some moment. But the experiment showed me at least that side loading works.

strava install & Launches but needs google play services to run

Why you want to install the Strava app on the Pace?!
Important is only the sync of activity data and this solves the Amazfit App on phone.
I'm sure I've seen some Timer app , and some Workout (repetitions) app for Amazfit somewhere, but are not mentioned here ?

Also I used apkinstaller for PC to install/uninstall an app. It works fine.
