S3 Gear Problem - LeEco Le Max 2 Questions & Answers

I have a problem with my Gear S3 with custom ROMs I can't find one working, only cucuo92 I believe it's named like that but the only problem I find there is I can't view my notifications while on lockscreen unless I unlock the phone, I don't know if this is possible to fix.
Or is there any way I can transfer the phone app on that ROM to another? I don't have any knowledge in programming they're just ideas

[Q] Pairing my Gear S with HTC One didn't work as intended at all

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.

Gear S and custom stock ROM

Dear wonderful people of XDA and experts of gear S devs, I have a problem connecting my note 4 to my gear S and it is mainly due to me using a custom stock rom(nameless ROM). It is very much debloated of most Samsung stuff.
Can anyone please enlighten me what is required for a Samsung phone to be paired with gear S? I want to find out what is lacking so that I may install it. I have also consulted the Rom dev for advice as well.
I think only gear manager and a Sammy rom
Gear Manager Assistant have you tried that? it's on Black Market if you don't wanna pay for it AND test it out first to see if it works correctly and then buy it...
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.gear_installer It's the second one down but here's some others in the related tab bar. Then there's Gear Manager for All https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.gearconnector it's only a $1.90, I can say for certain Gear Manager Assistant downloads and grabs all the needed files for ya.
Oh and here's official Gear Manager maybe it'll install all the needed files: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.samsung.android.app.watchmanager

Use Jefit on Samsung Gear S

Hi everone.
I got a Samsung Gear S from my girlfriend in christmas present and i would like to use Jefit ( cant link to play where it is, since im a new member) for my Gear S , insteed of useing my mobile evertime now, but dont find a way to do it, was hopeing rooting the phone would fix this and let me install or use what ever app i wanted like jailbreaking a Iphone.
But seems like i can only install what ever theme,ringtoon,font etc.. and nothing else, when searching or im i wrong?
Is there a way to use Jefit on my gear S watch somehow?
Thanks,

Gear S and Moto G4 Play

I apologize for making yet another thread about Gear Manager, but after countless weeks of searching, I have yet to find anything that works for me. Is it possible to use Gear Manager with this phone and watch combo? Is there anything I can do to have the watch do more than just receive my phone calls? I do not currently have the money to get a Galaxy phone, and I would like to be able to use this watch. I'll root the phone if I have to, or if there is an app that exists that can just push notifications to it, that would be great as well. Thanks in advance to anyone for any help with this.
