Done anyone know of any suitable way to capture video of running app on android device?
I've tried several
Capture apps (none reliable though, one said it was taking view, but did not store it, another was unable to start the service). BTW on a rooted dev.
Moto webtop (this really sucks @ 5fps)!!
Thinking about getting a phone grip, putting pu camcorder on stand over my shoulder and do the job. But what about screen glare from the phone? Anyone had any experience with these? Suggestions would be helpful if you've done that before.

Yep screencast. Brilliant app that can capture in high definition with sound and can add a pointer on screen so video viewers can see where your finger touched if you want them to.
Also the dev is regularly updating to add new features etcetera.

will give screencast a shot that is what i was looking for. past mid night its harder to concentrate without CnH2n+1OH -- wanted to say "looking for something that will also capture point where I touch"
just tried screencast http://code.google.com/p/androidscreencast/
I commend the development effort, it is step in the right direction. Features, limitations and usage is clearly documents, setting right expectations.
I for one right now will go back to camcorder
stevenkhan168 you must be rolling
Another hour or trial and error, will post results back...headed to WMT for chepo phone grip

That's not the app we mean.
App is called screencast not android screencast and is on market. Its developer is media solutions.

Is that a tegra2 device? Not sure man. Here's a link to their support forum. http://www.google.com/url?q=http://goo.gl/YkqmM&usg=AFQjCNE6WM6A1iJQTxQUqLraRGzdd6v5SQ might be able to find some answers over there..
Edit: Yoda! You, is it?
*why even eat corn?
actually tried it on two Moto atrix (Mb860 plat) and HTC Incred (desire plat) both @ 2.3.x builds
will give it another try this eve
if it works it will certainly beat garage lights, stealing kids play table 20 minutes trying to find camcorder focus on lit up screen , not to mention fat fingers

sorry for the late reply -- work kinda got me.
but did it the old way; this time just much better.
if you guys are interested would be glad to share.
Other than the backups of 20 pics, I kind of like using it and then quickly creating a video of the days event.
thanks

Would't this be a question for the S4 forums? They are the ones who actually own the phone. They do have similar features but off the top of my head I don't know of a identical one. They have it to where you can record audio, you can also do the eraser and delete things from your photo. Sounds like it may but you might want to ask one of the guys who have the S4
It's great to see some growing interest in creating new watchface designs. I see new entries via he Gear app every week.
There seems to be:
- A focus on surfacing every possible function that the Fit 2 provides on most watchfaces. This results in some really busy designs, driving the point size of the activity values to ever decreasing sizes. It's not just my aging eyes that have a hard time reading many of these values, but even when I am wearing glasses (I correct to 20/15) these values are nearly impossible to read when exercising. Sometimes displaying everything, because you can, is not the best design decision.
- A lack of functionality that allows the user to select what activity values are displayed. Maybe this is a limitation of Samsung's dev tool kit?? If so, then that explains it. If not, it sure would be great to disable values that I would never want to see, such as Water and Caffeine - even Calories is useless for me. I realize this is personal, but that's why I ask the question about customization.
As I said in another thread, maybe it's best for me to just get the dev tool kit and create something for myself.
I agree. I finally hit that age where I need to wear readers for smaller text. None of the watch faces allowed me to view them without the readers. So, I did download the watch face designer and created my own. I have two that I go back and forth on. Both have large font for the time/steps/battery so I can see them while i'm exercising or just walking.
I just released a minimal large font watchface free in the store right now, might be to your liking.

Some of them are definitely too busy so I decided what I wanted to see on my watch face and then created my own (still pending Samsung approval to be listed in the store). It leans toward the small but more functional side.

I'm pretty new to this, but the Gear Watch Designer (GWD) doesn't allow one to select activities on the watch itself as far as I could find. The Samsung-made watch faces have the Stylize button to select colors and such and I can't even figure out if that's possible in GWD. One can't even select 12hr/24hr on a watchface, let alone activities. It would be a good idea though.

It's not really that hard to do. Samsung has a pretty good tutorial on their site. If you don't plan on submitting to their store, it's even easier.
Having said that, once I get Samsung to approve my current submission, I plan to make others (all free of course) and I wouldn't mind making one for you. What sort of concept do you have in mind? Activities needed, etc. This kind of stuff is a fun hobby for me and a way to give back to the XDA community.
Coal:
Thanks for the offer. When I get some time, I am going to dive in myself. I might start with something like the Black Modern by minimin, but I'd make it more readable.

Yes, that one is mine. was my first watchface and I tried to make match the request of 2 posts I saw on a different thread before you guys posted.
I plan to make more and do requests after we finish moving to our new home. Not sure if anyone is actually buy this device though. My next watchface I'm going to see about adding a pseudo flashlight button.

Hi Coal,
I've just started to make my own watch faces too for the GF2. Here is a comment from the Samsung Developers Forum on how to create a Stylize/change colors at least...
The first issue I've had is using an example as a template then activating the "Always on Display" view. When I uploaded my watchface to my GF2 it would cycle through the "layers" of my watch face then resort back to a pre-loaded Samsung watch face. So now, I just do not try and add that feature in... Good Luck! I may upload something after I practice a LOT more!

I'm considering to buy Amazfit 2 from taobao. Since my pace haven't got any scratches to the glass during 1.5 years of use, I have no interested to pay 500RMB extra for leather strap and saphir glass - or is there some additional catch with 2S?
Could someone who already have the Amazfit 2 give a try for changing the system language to English via adb?
mine is on the way. I hope I can easily change the language to English.

If you understand Chinese you will see shop is in another region, but looks like is the only official one, shops in Shanghai they buy it from them.
I had to wait 12 days to get it, now looks like it is just 4/5 day, then they ship out with SF so one day for delivery.

hello,
from what I read from amazfitcentral.com any Bluetooth 4.0 standard protocol can be connected but they just talk about heart rate band so not sure about other devices, personally i doubt about.

But doesn't it have HR sensor?
Yes it does, as is described everywhere.
But some people have complained that the sensor is not accurate enough, so you now can connect an external one.
a lot of users who bought the smartwatch are looking for an English Firmware, hopefully it will be available soon

Hello,
HR sensors on watch it is always less accurate than bends. This is why for who is interested on "hight level" sports tracks they offer watches that can be paired with external devices.
Note: HR Amazfit sensor is better than HW 1 and 2 sensor. already tested.

Hello, that's not the clue, for sure US version will be released in a 3-4 month as company already said.
The fact is that we have to look forward to have the trick to move chinese version to english. As you may know chinese version is always better than US one cause company follow update and new stuffs more closely

Hello! Im searching for working drink water application for Verge, what remeber me every time, to not forget drink a water. I missing a lot this kind of app from all Amazfit product. Thank you
A workaround is to use a app in the phone and send the notification in the watch as i do now, yet is true i will like as well a standalone app do exactly that. May i suggest opening a tread in xiaomi forums as well?
