Hi everybody, is here a way to use the Galaxy gear devices to control Philips hue system? If Yes, then How?
not yet.
hopefully some developer can write an app soon.
I would be really interested in a hue app for the gear 2 as well. It would be great to have just basic functionality. For example turn lights on/off
If there is a Widget for the Philips Hue, you could try the wearable widget app as a workaround. It works perfectly to control my WeMo
good idea. But unfortunately wearable widgets is not available on the Samsung store right now. But I'll try as soon as it is again
It works perfectly to control light my TellStick.

I was wondering if anyone out there has found a torch application? Not one that just turns the screen white, but one that actually turns on the LED to use as a torch?
Theres an app called "The Camera" ;-)
If you activate the camera and then go to advanced settings, photo light on, bobs your uncle
An app would be better like as its a bit of a faff on, but it works
^ Yeah, my current iPAQ has a photo light like the X10 (rather than a flash), and I do the same on it when I need a light in a pinch. Works far better than a white screen (at least on the 2.3" screen on the iPAQ). Great for reading magazines in a theater before a movie.
not bright enough though. i guess because it is not dual led?
As interim solution i configured Barcode Reader to use the photo light and put a shortcut to home screen.
So if pressing the shortcut the flash light goes on instantly.
only problem: barcode reader tries to focus and focus and focus .....
(so it's not the best way, but really helpful for quick lighting)

btw this has app been out for weeks, note that if you use HelixLauncher it gets really buggy and you have to keep replacing the widget to get it to work again. But on the standard X10 homescreen I've had no issues.
Hi. I'm running helix launcher and have 'flashlightapp' which works fine. Widget is simple and effective.

Hi everybody!
I saw an app on galaxy apps that lets the clock always on!
However it's a very awful clock and I was wondering if someone can create an app that allows us to see clock all the time and not only while moving our wrist!
(better if black-based because of battery maybe like moto360 clockface)
Thank u if you're considering my idea!
Perhaps default in Gear 2 UI soon?

I noticed that Gear S have always on (like Android Wear) integrated in the settings options so if Samsungs will update the Gear 2 (or the hole Gear line) with the same UI changes we will got this feature by default (and perhaps there will be some more nice clockfaces developed for both dimmed and active mode).
I plan on upgrading from my Note 3 to the Developer Note 4. I'm concerned of complaints I've read from Note 4 users that some apps aren't showing up in the Samsung Gear App Market to download due to not being approved for the Note 4, (possibly they require the dev to resubmit for approval with the new device) - is this really happening or am I wrong?
Can any of you Note 4 users please chime in on your experience with the Gear 2 so I can determine whether I want to make the jump or not?
I have a note 4 and gear 2. i can't get flesky messenger in the gear app store but that's a well known thing. Outside of that everything else works fine from what i can tell. I am not big on the gear store apps anyway.
I can confirm this; some apps I'd installed together with my Note 3, are NOT available for install on my Gear 2 in combination with my Note 4!
can any of you post specific apps that are missing for you?
I got a notification for KLWinkel a few days ago that his Multi-Watch app should work (and that's my #1 app right now).
Some other essentials I would like to make sure work:
Wearable Widgets
Smart IR lite
Toggles
Shoplist
Launchgear
LookBehind
Gearam Music ID (shazam-like music search on the gear)
I have a Verizon Note 4 and Neo 2, the only app on that list I have and confirm working is the gear music ID and it works well.

I didn't find an app named Shoplist. Wristlist was there.

Thanks for reporting back - that's very encouraging! I do use the watch when grocery shopping so that's one of my essentials. I tried wristlist, but I don't prefer it without an option to make the background black, I feel it eats up too much battery with the white backgrounds. Shoplist actually does this and has the tickboxes I like.
So, I have a Galaxy S4 (sprint if it matters), and it comes with a pretty simple app called "Clock". This app has multiple alarms, a stopwatch, timer, world clock, and (if you rotate it sideways) a desktop clock. I also have a Samsung Galaxy Note 2014 edition tablet. It does not come with this app, but comes with something called "Alarm", which I don't find nearly as useful. Thus, my question is, is there some way to grab the Clock app off my phone and install it on my tablet, preferably without rooting either device? Or, does anyone just have that clock as an apk sitting around somewhere that I can side load?
I've tried to find the app in the Google Play store, but with a name like "Clock" it isn't easy to find. Also, I am NOT looking for some other app that does the same thing or is "better"; I just want the one I have on my phone.
thanks
I'm trying to find an alternative launcher for my watch 4 that i can select as alternative launcher in watch settings. Does it exist? I would like to hide one of messages app ( Samsung messages and Google messages) from launcher but seems impossible...
I don't know, but I really hope they either offer a list mode like my Watch Active 2 had or an alternative comes along. I really despise the new launcher. I use XDrip (for blood glucose readings) on the watch and it has several components that get installed and they all have the same icon, making it impossible to know which is which. Not all icons are really self explanatory either.

Another fellow type 1 and xdrip user here!
I'm really hoping for an alternative launcher as well. One that is similar to wear os 2.0.
But when it comes to your specific problem have you tried just using wearable widgets?
I keep this as the first tile. I still get to have the watch face I want, but it's just a swipe to the right and there's my bg. It works very well.

I do use Wearable Widgets as well. It's also the first tile in my list just in case I want to change my watch face from XDrip. I find that it doesn't update that well or quickly though. I have to swipe to it and then wait for it to update. I should specify that I'm type 2, but bad enough I needed a Dexcom to monitor. It's been SUPER helpful to help control my BG and keep me honest.
