Hello all
Just received my smartwatch 2 and using it with Note 3, but when choosing the email(not GMAIL, it works fine) it says that its not supported. Does anybody know what the problem is and why this is not supported ? Thanks
It sucks that email does not work i was looking forward to it.
Just use watchit or something similliar

if u add up all the new events in your sw2 apps, it will be equal to the stock new events.
when u read from the stock new events, the new events in the respective apps will also be marked read.
u just need to use the stock new events and ignore the new events in the other apps.

u need the individual apps to catch their specific notifications but u do not need to read these notifications from these apps. whatever the apps catched, the stock new events will show. if appA has 5 new events and appB has 3 new events, the stock new events will indicate and display these 8 events.
for me, instead of reading from individual apps, i just read from the stock new events. as the name suggested, it will only display new events without the old events.
the individual apps hold up to 30 notifications. and when u r inside the app, it does not indicate which r new events and which r old events. unless i make a point to remember the number of new events, i always find that i am reading the old events after finishing the new events as there is no read/unread indication.
only when i have a need to view old notifications, then only i will read from that specific app. otherwise i only read from the stock new events.
the one exception is augmented smartwatch. the system/network/connectivity status are not captured in the stock new events.
What did you do to make this happen
I can't get it to tell me when I GET an email but it does show when one is sent or calendar events. Can you tell me exactly what you did in watch it prefs to get received mail notifications.

I really want to be able to 'Share' to my calendar - that is, for example i'm on a webpage, and i want to put the website name/address on to my calendar as an event. I want to hit 'Share', and have it share to the calendar. Same should be for other apps, but mainly browser sharing to calendar would be great.
There's an app on the market that does just this called Text2Calendar, but it was last updated in August 2010. After installing it, it works just as you'd hope. On a webpage, you can share to this app, it will open the calendar where it's prefilled the website name as the name of the event and the address is pasted in to the description. Only problem is that when you hit save, it automatically crashes Text2Calendar and the event never saves. I've tried this app on ICS and JellyBean and same result. It always crashes.
I can't be the only one who religiously uses their calendar, and there are similar extensions available on chrome, just wish my galaxy s iii could do it too! Thanks!
Link to play market app here:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=luck.of.wise.text2calender
Nice tool and yup it crashes when it wants to write to /data/data/...calendar.db - seems the colum displayName is not quite correct..
Fix for ICS calendar
Ok, did tinker with it and fixed the issue with ICS calendar - well at least here, but please test it.
Edit - With english translation
Hey man! It works! Sort of - i mean it definitely doesn't crash anymore, which is FREAKING AWESOME. I'm impressed.
Only thing if you can change, would make it great. It pops up a calendar entry screen where you can save the details, and then a second screen pops up with foreign text and tells you to select a calendar.
is there any way that it will just share it to the internal calendar sharing? thanks either way bud!
Yeah I was wondering where the japanish part of the app would appear I have only one account, so I don't see this dialog, I also use a different calendar...but I'll look into the translation.
Edit : New version post 3
Hopefully this will sort the language issue, but about the internal sharing thingy I don´t quite follow. The entries in the picture, are they different accounts? and if they are there is little I can do about it as this the way of android or original coder..Might be a settings in your calendar to set a default account, but that´s my guess..
Awesome work man. I tried the new apk but it looks to be the same as the first one you posted.
The only other thing I was wondering if you could change - whenever you share to the app, it doesn't allow you to select a time for the event. It automatically puts the event as 30 minutes from now, it doesn't allow you to select the time. Can you change that? thanks again for your amazing work!

..totally unexpected lol
and the english arrays was a waste too?
just for comparison, I have replaced stock calendar with aCalendar
,have one google account, on CM9 4.0.4, and txt2cal is working with no issues. What´s unexpected is how well it picks up in other apps to, thanks!
Could you try to only sync one default account, for test, and see if anything changes?
obvious differences in setup makes this into a ghost hunt, for my part. A log would be last resort, so if catlog is reporting errors you will need to post them here, but chances are slim to none what to make of it

Have just got a Smartwatch 2 and although I'm loving certain things about it, there are a few things that are proving to be frustrating.
I have paired mine with my Galaxy S4 and sadly the stock email app is not supported on the device. So I migrated my Hotmail account into Gmail (which is supported) but having done so, I can only see the first line or two of any email message. This is the case in both alerts and when I try to read the message.
I've tried K-9 but don't like the look of it on either my phone or the watch, so ideally I'd like to stick with the Gmail app if I can get it working properly.
Anyone else had this issue or know of a fix?
Cheers

It's the same for me with my Samsung Galaxy S2. However, via the app WATCHIT, I can read the whole text of the email. Watchit is supposed to only give the notification but it actually puts the whole text, while the specific app of gmail only shows 2 lines...
I am about to uninstall the Gmail App
Can tell me everyone what is the difference between 'toasts' and 'notifications' in the App WatchIt!? Sorry, I'm German and don't know what toasts in this way means. Thanks.

Great tip, thanks for this!
Watchit now installed, Gmail uninstalled and I can now see the full message. Bizarre that this needs to be done but it works!
The gmail app is only supposed to give you the first few lines of the email. It has always been like this - even on the previous smart watches.
Watchit will give you the full email but there is a limitation. If you do not read that email on your phone before getting a second email, you will not get the full email on your watch. Watchit appears to give the same text as what appears in the notification bar on your phone. Receiving more than 1 gmail without clearing the notification will result in watchit not providing the full email to your watch as the information is not available to watchit.
Notifications appear in your notification bar on the phone, meanwhile toasts are those little messages that appear at the bottom of your phone on top of everything and disappear quickly

Hi gargamel26l
Do you have problem on your hp when you activate accessibility to use WatchIt? Whenever I activate accessibility, all video will be very laggy. Any idea how to go about this. Thanks.
Hi all,
OK - I have the Sony Gmail app installed on my SW2 and I'm using a stock (rooted) LG2.
On the phone, I don't need (or want) Gmail running in the background so have all notifications & sync disabled - basically, I just want Gmail to work a) when I check it manually or b) occasionally when I'm waiting for a mail to come through and need notifications on my watch and will enable them.
Weird bit.
I disable everything as mentioned, and the phone happily shows me no notifications, BUT the SW2 does!
I check the phone when one comes through on the watch and sure enough there's none there and I have to swipe down to poll the account.
My question: which app is polling the account - is it the Gmail app or the SW2 extension - and more importantly, how can I stop either/both of them doing it and save battery life/my sanity?
Is the phone secretly checking in the background for mail but not showing me any notifications?
Thanks for any tips.
If you don't want to poll Gmail, then, remove the extension from the watch.

Yes, but if you read my post you'll see that I occasionally do need to poll Gmail.
Your suggestion is a bit like "if you don't like being stuck in traffic, sell your car".
I use an app called Watchify, in it you can enable/disable notifications pretty much on the fly. It's now a paid app, but free trial for 14 days. I liked it enough to buy it. You can turn off Gmail notifications when not needed, then back on when needed. But you will have to do it from SmartConnect on the phone. I think maybe you might be looking for a filter for Gmail.

Yeah, I use Notfify Smartwatch ( https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ru.shuisky.notify ).
I can use this actually instead of the Gmail app.
I'm still confused as to what's polling the Gmail account though. The phone certainly doesn't seem to be, but these extensions don't work independently.
Do you see what I mean? It's like the phone is polling the account, just not showing any notification to prove it is.
It's very odd.
I guess the first question I should have asked is, what apps/ext on you running on your SW2?

Call Handling
Messaging

That's it.
The extension works independent - directly accesses your account not using Gmail App. So it's correct that the extension ignores what your phone notifications tell or hide

Wow. Is that so..
So, question answered then - thanks very much.
it's a bit hit and miss. e.g. this email notification came through, but the notification for the other thread replies didn't.
Not much use anyway!
I think it might be following the rules of categorising in Gmail website where those mails might be put together in one thread. But idk... I'm using stock Xperia Email and Extension.
On my S4 I used AquaMail with AquaMail Extension. Worked well.

No, just changed the type of fuel it uses..
To the makers of this Gmail smart extension.....I noticed today that my data was being used so I decided to investigate, 1.47 GB was used for Gmail smart extension. What the F---? This is a bad app and I demand a solution to this as you just cost me most of my data plan!
Hey all!
Just got my Galaxy S6 yesterday and not sure if I am not just used to the changes in lollipop or if the changes are really that bad!
What happened to the organization of the old email app?
This may be the wrong thread and if so, please point me in the right direction.
I get a lot of spam at work, and sometimes it is easier to click on the date ticker, which selects all of the emails for that day and I can mark them as read or delete them.
Now it is just one huge stream of emails with no way to pick multiple emails at once to delete or mark as read.
Am I just missing something?
Is there anyway to select multiple emails or do I really have to go through each email individually?
And , if this functionality is not available, can anyone recommend a good email app where I can select multiple emails at once, particularly by date? Otherwise the app is pretty much useless to me.
I have an out of the box Sprint Samsung Galaxy s6 that is unrooted.
Thanks all

Been using the Gmail app for my Google and external accounts. No issues whatsoever. Stopped using the Galaxy email app built in since the S5 version started acting funky with read mails randomly becoming unread.

Gmail app looks too clunky and doesn't allow me to pick multiple emails with one click..
I use Kaiten.
I tried gmail briefly after I got my S6 but it's awful by comparison. I don't know how people use such a limited app for email.

It definitely does. You press and hold one mail and the colours kind of go grayish. Then go tapping on multiple mails to select them. From here you can perform various actions like mark as read, delete etc.

That is not the what I am looking for. With the KitKat stock email, you can pick the date...say Weds April 22. You click the box next to that date and every email on that date is selected. You are suggesting that I click each indvidual email which is exaclty what I don't want to do.
Any other suggestions?
Kaiten does not have that either.
That's an interesting filter/option. Not something I've needed before.
Have you tried some of the top rated email apps in play store?

Mike, I use the email exactly as you do. I'd click on a day and the app would check all of the emails . I'd then uncheck the ones I wanted to keep our read and then hit delete. This was magic. I'm lookin at all email apps. Have you found anything yet?

You can activate the select/multi-select option by holding your fingertip on the date bar. The selection boxes will slide in on the left side of the screen.

Hi. All. I need also for the stock Samsung Galaxy S6 the button to select/mark All mail at one time.
In HTC Sense i didn't get this problem.
I was wondering if anyone found a solution yet. I am in same situation...nice new phone but painful to go through emails. I used to select all from he date...same as OP ..then just uncheck the five or so I wanted to keep. Now I have to check 80 boxes. Any new info would be appreciated.

I know this is not what you were looking for but it might help someone looking for this...
to delete all emails you can long press on one email, until it is highlighted grey (or tick the box (to enable this box you can press the 3 dots and go to settings of that email and it is in there to enable tick box))
once you have one email highlighted, the top bar will turn orange and show the number of emails selected and the trash can etc...
if you tap on the number of emails selected (one at this point) there will be a drop down to say 'select all'...
I know it is not what OP wanted but I ended up here looking for this info so maybe someone else will too...

Hi everyone
Just got my new S3 Frontier. can anyone tell me how I can view future events on the calendar app.
I can scroll the through the next 27 days events but if I want to view or add an event say in 3 months time there does not seem to be any way to do it??
Seems daft that I can look at the calendar but not see my events etc in the future?
I must be doing something stupid as I cannot find anyone else in the history of the internet who has the same issue ?
please help...
Most of watch show just current day events, over show 1 week or 3 days. So if you have a month on Gear it is very well. It is just a quick method to see what happen next. Otherwise for total operation it is always a phone job.
Do more use more memory more time to transfer so more batt so not for a small wearable device

The watch isn't meant to replace a smartphone, I don't think. You can't surf the net or get to Google for example. For longer range activities you need a phone or computer and I'm good with that.
Assuming you are running tizen 3.0, go into the calendar app by launching the app or tapping the calendar widget. In the main screen of the calendar app on the watch, tap the three dots on the right side of the calendar screen. There should be an option called "create a new event"
