Hey xda!
Since there seems it isn't going to be released a gear-compatible Whatsapp app by official sources I started my way into developing applications for wearable devices with my own client.
Its buggy and not reliable as my knowledge is pretty limited. But it does its job most of the time. I'm trying to figure out how to make it work better, so with time and luck, It will improve.
CURRENTLY WORKING FEATURES:
View the list of chats, with their latest messages and hours.
Open chats, showing up to the last 50 messages (sent or received) and their hours.
View contact profiles from where you can check his/her status and phone number.
Reply to chats from the watch! (Sometimes messages will not be sent until Whatsapp is opened in phone, specially if sending lot of messages in a short period of time. Some other times, whatsapp remains opened in the device after sending it.)
View profile pictures.
View received images
NOT IMPLEMENTED YET (but scheduled/planned/desired for next updates):
Push notifications on watch for new messages, allowing you to directly open the chat in the watch (Replacement for default gear notification.) [Needs some work, but will come soon].
View received images in higher res. View videos/audio.
Last seen.
Group chats.
Start a new chat.
View / edit your own profile
Call and send SMS from contact profile ( there are buttons for it , but do nothing ).
Voice reply
Send images / videos
REQUIREMENTS:
Rooted phone (Android 4.4 KitKat or higher).
Tizenmod.
sqlite3 installed on your phone. If you dont have it, there are apps in the PlayStore that can install it for you, or you can manually copy sqlite3 file to system/xbin from an emulator.
Whatsapp installed (Obviously... ) and working on your phone.
Notification access for WhatsGear must be enabled on phone settings.
Root and sqlite3 are required in order to access Whatsapp's sqlite databases.
I'm not publishing this application in the Samsung Store, but Im releasing it here for all xda users.
If not clear, I have nothing to do with Whatsapp. This is a personal project for my use that I wanted to share with whoever wants to use it too.
I cannot be held responsible for any damage related to hardware, software or data loss which the end user might cause while attempting any procedures, methods or advices found on this thread.
Reviews, bug reports and ideas are appreciated.
Hope you like it

Hi friend... Did everything, but don't know how your app works... I can't see it installed on my smart watch... It just install on the phone?
Upsss... sorry, I uploaded a wrong apk. This one should be installing the gear side app.
Could you check it please?
Thanks.

If you swipe right or left in the keyboard special chars should appear. (I noticed some important ones are missing as ",". I'm adding them later).
Whatsapp should be closing by itself without the need of closing it from recents Im sorry to hear it isnt for you. Im at work now, but I'll take a look at it when I arrive home and add a button for force closing on gear app while I can't get It to work well by itself.
Thanks for your feedback.

Remote test lab is for testing your apps in different devices. I used it just to check if it got installed with your devices well as I don't have a note 3. Not sure why you are asking for it when you own both devices, but anyway its on http://developer.samsung.com/remotetestlab/

Hi everyone.
To keep the Smartwatch Impressions Thread clean of bug-reports for my Apps i wanted to provide a own thread for them.
I just started developing for Android and the Sony Smartwatch because i missed so many functionality on my Smartwatch and the apps where missing in the market.
Some of them are done after people asked they want a app like that. For example the GPS Maps apps and the whatsapp notifier.
So if you miss some app for your smartwatch i might look at it to make it.
So here they are:
the Mail notifier (1.0.2.3):
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.bytewiese.liveware.extension.imapnotification
is using the javamail library for android. So there might be some bugs in it from me and from the library.
GPS Maps (1.0 Beta):
using OpenStreetMap: http://bytewiese.de/fileadmin/_media/dl/smartwatch/SmartwatchMap.apk
Does show a Map on your smartwatch with your position with the GPS-Data of your Phone
Google Maps App (currently v1.0.9.1) in the Google Play Store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.bytewiese.liveware.extension.gpsmap
Calendar Events (1.0.0):
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.bytewiese.liveware.extension.calendarevents
shows the current/future event of your default calendar and you can swipe to the left/right to see the next or previous Event with time and description.
WhatsApp notifier (2.1 Beta):
http://bytewiese.de/fileadmin/_media/dl/smartwatch/SmartwatchWhatsappNotifier21.apk
shows a notification from the WhatsApp application when it is installed and running with notifications enabled. (still buggy as it looks.)
Calculator (1.0.0.4):
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.bytewiese.liveware.extension.quickcalc.
Calculator for the smartwatch.
Thanks for all your reportings and ideas and i hope we can continue in this thread.
Great
Kudos for the thread
will continue to support ur app and report my findings
Sorry to trouble u again but could you fixed the Call log Smart Extras™ since it doesnt support ICS thanks again
TIPS: Whatsapp notifier
- If stop giving notification please disable & enable it back on the phone, also opening the app on the phone trough the watch might prevent it to notify again.
Disable & enable it back again
Thanks for your hard work!
Regarding the mail app, the "action toast button" doesn't do anything.
Also if i put my phone in airplane mode at night i get a flood of "failed to connect to server" messages. Would be sweet just to have one error which clears after the connection returns if possible.
Whatsapp notifier, don't use the open on phone option for now as it will stop alerting on new messages.
Seems as though something else stops it notifying time to time but don't know what triggers it. Disabling and enabling app fixes it.
If received two messages and both have been unread, will show an alert saying "2 new messages"rather than the actual messages. Customnotifier does the same thing so there may not be a workaround.
I'm here to continue testing at your will. Your apps will be great to end up on the market.
Cheers

can you please make an alarm clock app? [=
Sorry if this sounds like a stupid question, but has anyone tried how well the old OpenWatch app fares with the new SmartWatch?
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...nwatch&feature=nav_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwyLDNd
It’s the app I used to use to sync with my outstanding MBW-150. It would capture all notifications brilliantly, maybe the code is re-usable.
Just thinking out loud… thanks and regards

Good morning beowulf, thanks again for the multitude of apps, one question, the GPS google map seems too enlarged on my smartwatch to the point that i almost cannot see the blue triangle which i assume is my location, is there a way to zoom out? thanks

The light version works with the smartwatch as well. I use it all the time. Really slick.
Hi beowulf,
The gps maps app does not work on my sgs2. It only shows a white screen. I only saw the map once for a short moment.
Hi. The loading sometimes takes a bit long.
But you can try the new version of it which will hopefully soon be available from the google market.
It is uploaded and published so look out for it. But i will hint to it as soon as i see it in the market. (I hope i am allowed to post links to my apps in the market)
It will have some new features you will hopefully like.
(You will need to remove the old version manually though)
//edit: ok. Finaly my first app in the android market.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.bytewiese.liveware.extension.gpsmap
I think i already found a bug though. It seems as soon as the app is closed and reopened on the watch that there is stil a old picture flickering. Will look at this. I would be happy if you continue to test and report bugs and ideas.
Just downloaded it from the Play Store!
Still not working though. Even the gps does not stop after closing the app.
Congratulations Beowulf6!
Thank you very much for your work.
hi Wop2k,
yes. was the same cause of my problem with the flashing screen.
i hope i finaly fixed it. I already updated the app in the market and i hope it works now for you now without a white screen.
if it is still not working i would like to know your android version.
Thanks.

Hey, I recently released an app to Google Play and was wondering if you guys could help me out to test it and to give me feedback!
The app is called Sms Replier and it's a tool that can be used to send texts to people who call you while you're unable to get to your phone to answer(while you're in an exam, or playing a game of soccer, etc.). I know this idea has been done before, but I want to know whether you think it's worth it for me to keep working on it so as to add features which have not been done in any other app. Please let me know how well it performs/what things I should change about it, and please rate it on Google Play!
I am excited to get some real criticism from android users so that I can continue to make this app what I originally set out for it to be!
The app is completely free! Thank you in advance.
I like it! Simple, but I would love a widget.
If you are lazy: here's a link to the download:

thanks for the app..

Hey. Can the app send sms at a specific time? For example set it to send an sms to a contact at 2pm and when the clock becomes 2pm it sends the sms. Cz I'm looking for such a feature.

what would be good is to have either a widget to toggle on / off, permanent notification to enable access to the menu, or an idle / activity monitor like if phone left idle for x minutes then enable it; as soon as there's human activity then de-activate it (could be linked to the auto screen dim/off).
A very nice app, very useful for businesses. Out Of Office Reply
A great start! I would also like to add some suggestions (some may be repeats).
1. Widgets that you can add to turn on and off selected notifications.
2. Auto respond based on a pre-determined schedule.
3. Auto start on startup option (for scheduled events).
4. # appears over icon to notify user how many messages were replied to while away (like mail or missed call icon).
Keep up the great work!

Great app very helpful while driving especially. Would be nice if you could add some features to even reply to text messages automatically. Something similar to auto reply feature in GoSMS.
great work.

as bigdog said those are very essential to complete this app.
first time i installed the app.. i was really surprised to see its simplicity really awesome
i would like to add some suggestions and doubts from mine sides too even though they may be repeated
some brainstorming got me to bring up these elements
1. sometimes there can just be miss calls.. you can add up timer like (send sms before ringer, on one ring, on two rings, or like if didnt pick the call at all will send an sms)
2. a status bar indicating that the sms replier with number of sms sent. [a widget would also be helpful]
3. then you can add some templates or profiles like driving, in class or let users create their profiles or templates.
4. there is one more thing that u can get access of contacts and just disconnect the unknown numbers[ofcourse getting the notification with number at our end] and donot sent them a reply in order to maintain the privacy and not let the unknown numbers know what you are upto.
5. and if i may add a option.. a counter to be set to ring if a same person is trying to call for more than two three times or in case of emergency
i will add more when it comes ...
Would be great if it could work on whatsapp!
The difference is that you don't need to click the template to send it when you're receiving the call. It sends automatically when a missed call is recorded. Sorry to assume, but it doesn't seem like you actually tried using the app at all.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
@saredev, does your app have feature that can exclude certain numbers from auto responding but they are in the contacts list. For example, notifications banks or credit card companies. These companies don't need to receive auto-response. I think you might have to check the number when it arrives whether it's a phone number or shortcode before auto-response. Or include a list of numbers from auto-response.

I Fixed this app because Jay Goel did not ! It is for all of us Virgin Mobile Users who like to keep tabs on the minutes used . Due to recent Changes by Virgin Mobile the app on the marketplace stopped working so i edited it with the proper log in information(changed www1 to www2 and it works perfectly again ! Pretty good for a person with little coding experience. I used apktool and then signed the compiled app . here it is and give me a thanks if you use it . Uninstall the broke one first !
I emailed Jay Goel several times but he did not respond or update his app so i did because i needed it .The only change i made was replaced WWW1 with WWW2 in WebsiteScraper.java then recompiled it with the easy instructions of apktool then used signapk and WALA ! Works 100% and i love to see mins used in a widget . Multiple account log ins all fixed by me .feb 20 2013
PLEASE UNINSTALL THE OLD VERSION BEFORE INSTALLING THE FIXED APK HERE. THANKS
Thanks so much! I was planning on doing just that when I got the time. I'm glad I procrastinated and let you do the heavy lifting.
The app doesn't seem to be reading the "Charged on" fields correctly. Any change you could mess around with that?
Thanks a ton!
My charged on field is showing the correct data. I have several accounts all on different days and it displays for example Charged on: Th/A/04
Set indicates Thursday, the 4th and on Automatic debit for next month April. A
Hope that helps..

Thanks for the reply. If you look at the pics on the play store, it looks like it should just be the date in mm/dd/yy format. I think it uses that to calculate how fast you are burning minutes and changes the color of the widget appropriately. It also uses that to make the black circle bar on the widget that represents the progress through the month.
These features aren't critical, so if you don't have the time to work on it, it's understandable. You have done us a great service fixing this app already!

Hi. No yes that was changed by another contributing developer. I like it this way it is as all the info in pie graphs plus widget s are accurate. I will update it again when the time comes it stops working again.. Enjoy
Sent from my cm_tenderloin using xda premium
Amazing! I hinted my review over at the play store for folks to google for this
My charged on date isn't showing up either but that happened before even in the older versions. I actually wish someone could fork the project and add higher res widgets and implement the new code from the VM account that tracks the data limit usage. I know there are apps or ICS and up can track data usage but it's not accurate. With the new forked app you'd know exactly were you are in terms of data usage as VM sees it.
Happy to have this back though! :highfive:
Seems like "Virgin Mobile Minute Checker" author has not updated the app for a while. I contacted him with no success. Surprisingly, Virgin Mobile themselves also does not offer any app.
Ultimately, I have started working on my own version. It is in google's play store under name "Virgin Mobile Minutes" (it has "V" and "m" letters in logo). It is free for everyone to enjoy. It is missing a widget for now - I will add it soon.
I apoligize if that sounded like I am trying to advertise myself

Thanks for the fix. The old app stopped working a couple weeks ago when Virgin Mobile moved my account to their new system, and this update mostly works.
With this new version, my "Charged On:" field is blank, so the app doesn't know when my month starts/ends, and therefore, the green "days remaining" circle in the graphic and widget are missing: The graphics only show the red Minutes Used pie.
Please let me know if you need any additional info from me to help fix this issue (if you have time to fix it).
PS: I couldn't install this fixed version (it kept failing) until I uninstalled the old version.
PPS: I'm running CM7 on a Triumph, and plan to try Paranoid Android ICS in the near future.

Seems like "Virgin Mobile Minute Checker" author has not updated the app for a while. I contacted him with no success. Surprisingly, Virgin Mobile themselves also does not offer any app.
Ultimately, I have started working on my own version. It is in google's play store under name "Virgin Mobile Minutes" (it has "V" and "m" letters in logo). It is free for everyone to enjoy. It is missing a widget for now - I will add it soon.
I apoligize if that sounded like I am trying to advertise myself

Nice job. Just loaded it on my phone. The only think missing from me making this my primary app is that I can't monitor 2 or more (in my case, just 2) accounts. But, for now I'll just leave this set up to watch the other phone's usage while I use other apps to monitor my minutes.

I saw that in the original app but I did not realize that there were actually people who would monitor multiple accounts. Guess I was wrong. You are the first one you brought it up. I will put it on my TODO list. Be patient
I monitor two account fine with it. Mine and my daughters. We both have different due dates and that works also here is a screen shot.. Uploading now

Notice due dates do work for both for next billing. I am on auto pay so J for June and day we are due. This is a great app. Also shows two different wegdits pie graphs and transparent min used. Also shows min used during and after a call on dialer screen.

Thanks for the fix. The old app stopped working a couple weeks ago when Virgin Mobile moved my account to their new system, and this update mostly works.
With this new version, my "Charged On:" field is blank, so the app doesn't know when my month starts/ends, and therefore, the green "days remaining" circle in the graphic and widget are missing: The graphics only show the red Minutes Used pie.
Please let me know if you need any additional info from me to help fix this issue (if you have time to fix it).

Do you still experience the issue? If so, please email (email should be available on google's play market) me and I can solve that.
The app was fixed as all can see the Charged on field is active using the file posted.
The app in the market itself is dead and outdated so I posted the patched file which works now including multiple accounts. I am also curious is the fellow with the charged on filed was resolved by my fix...

Would I be able to include a non ad supported version for our ROM?

I added monitoring multiple accounts from inside the app and also you can assign a widget to specific account (if you have more than one account registered). See if you like it.
BTW, if you have any comments please email me directly since I do not visit forums that often.

Safe N Secure Notes is a simple, no fuss application which allows you to store your notes easily and securely. Ideal for storing sensitive information like email addresses/passwords, ATM Pins, Bank Account Numbers etc.
This is not just any other notes taking application, this one works smartly. Once installed and initial setup is done, the application hides itself(There is no icon to launch the application). The only way to launch the application is by entering a special pattern on your device's dialer.
Notes are stored in encrypted format using industry standard AES Encryption.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
1. Once the application is installed, click on the application icon to launch setup.
2. Enter your secret passcode which will be used to open the application and your email address. Your passcode will be emailed to you for future reference.
3. Restart your device. The application icon will not be visible anymore.
4. Open dialer and press **[your_secret_code] to launch the application.
5. Now you can add notes using "Add Note" button. Any existing note can be deleted by long pressing on that note's row which will bring up "Delete Note".
CHANGELOG
--------------------
Version 2.0 (SafeNSecureNotes_V3.apk)
1. Included Wifi Only Devices Support! The application will appear as a normal calculator. Entering the secret code and pressing any of the non numeric buttons will launch the notes interface.
2. - Support additional pattern for launching application: **[secret_code]# <---Using this pattern will not trigger a call when incorrect secret code is entered by mistake.
3. Changed Ad placement to improve user experience. <b>Added menu option to purchase Ad Free version. </b>
Version 1.1 (SafeNSecureNotes_V2.apk)
1. Moved "Save Note" button to top on Add Note/Edit Note screens.
2. Fixed Security Flaw wherein user could launch the application without entering secret code from Application History (in case the application was started earlier). Please note, DO NOT use "Home" button to exit out of the application. If you do this, the secret code will be visible in "Dialer" App History.
3. Added Backup/Restore to/from SD Card. WARNING: Restoring data on an existing installation will completely overwrite the database.

Please rate/review the application if you find it useful.
Nice app will give it a try!
I really really like the way the app opens through the dialer, well done buddy! will definitely need this app.
Great app!
Suggestions/bug(?)reports.
It would be nice NOT to see the program in the recent apps list.
As I see, the program puts another blank "Phone" screen to the recent app list, and if I tap on this, the program starts without the code.

I am assuming by settings you are referring to changing the secret code/pin. This is not supported in the current version, but I will take note of this and implement. It should be done in a day or two.

I have this problem too. MsAppz, the dev said he will fix it. If he does this is a great 5* app.
I am running 4.31 CM 10.2 on Note N7000.

This problem should be fixed with the latest version (v2) that I have posted. The application itself does not appear in recent app list anymore. Please note, you need to *always* exit the application using back button. If the application is exited using *Home* button, the code will remain visible on the dialer in the app history. But if you exit the application using back button, the dialer will appear as blank in the history.
Please let me know if you still face any issues.
Thank you so much ....awesome new concept liked it much ....keep it up ...

A really awesome app....great job...I would love it even more if it had a photo attachment option as well but I still give it a 5 star.:good::
please make it available for tablets.
It looks a nice app but can you please add any alternative method for using on tablets other than opening the app via dialer trick.
I hope I will see its available for my N7 :laugh:

Hey, really nice app !

Great app, but why does it need the permission to divert outgoing phone calls???

The uninstall process is same as any other application. You can go to Settings > Applications and uninstall this application from there.

Hey all - been working on this off and on for a while but I've finally got it in a place where it works to how I envisioned it so I'm super excited to share it with you all!
These days people expect instant replies to their instant messages & it's not always possible to oblige.
Texting & driving is dangerous, your boss probably isn't keen on your messaging at work, you might be in a meeting, you might have left your phone to go workout.. Fortunately, in any given situation, Can't Talk will respond for you.
Let people know you're busy, you're driving, you're in a meeting, you'll get back to them later.. You set the message, you set who & via which apps to respond to & Can't Talk does the rest.
It's "out of office" but not just limited to email. Whatsapp, Slack, SMS, missed calls, Telegram, Hangouts, Allo.. any app that let's you send a quick reply via it's notification - Can't Talk can respond to.
Features of note:
- You can auto reply to sms & missed calls as well as app notifications
- You can specify which apps can be replied to
- You can specific which contacts can be auto-replied to (this includes across apps like Whatsapp etc..)
- You get to specify the message that gets sent.
Features of note to come:
- Multiple profiles - so you can create a "work profile" or a "home profile" or a "driving profile" with specific responses/settings
- Contextual Switching - the ability to automatically turn profiles on & off depending on whether you're driving, in the office, at home etc..
- Contact specific responses
At this stage I'd really love your feedback on the app so far (this is a beta so there may be bugs) & more specifically what more would you want from an app like this?
Any and all feedback/suggestions would be hugely appreciated!
Beta on the Play Store here
Huge update now on the Play Store
Added support for messaging apps such as Whatsapp, Hangouts etc..
Fixed a number of bugs
Added support for contact specific replies
Would love ANY feedback on the app! Happy Friday everyone!!
New update will be on the Play Store shortly, lots of bug fixes & a much tidier UI ??
Nice app but second reply time is 12 min after the first reply to the same person that not good. it should be the frequent reply. or is it work without the internet?

Thanks for the feedback! Was it a reply to the same message, & which app was it replying too (whatsapp, sms, etc)? There is a setting under Advanced Settings to change the reply frequency, it defaults to 15 minutes meaning it'll auto reply to any NEW messages you receive from the same contact or app after 15 minutes.
If you have a better idea about how reply frequency should work I'm all ears Maybe people want the option to reply to 1 contact 1 time ever, until the app is switched off?
New beta is up! Ton of bug fixes, some layout improvements.. Feedback as always is encourage
Messenger?
Does this (can this) work with Facebook Messenger?
Finally an extremely useful app thank you...

Interesting application buddy. Love the opening animations.
One thing I found annoying, is that for almost anything I changed, there was no "Save" button. Thus I had to first click "Back" arrow and then a prompt would ask if I want to save or discard. Could have used only a single click if there was a "Save" button.
Also, there needs to be some modification for the secondary text field, e.g. Apps Secondary or Advanced Secondary.

How would you know who had joined the beta, though? When I click the "Become a tester" button on the play store, does it send my email to the developer?
after I have enabled Notification Access, it is consuming 310MB RAM in a 3GB RAM Device, is it normal?

Hi
This looks a very interesting app but I don't seem to be able to download it. There is no Install button on the app page.
Sounds nice, gonna give it a whirl
I joined the beta program through the app in the store instead of the link in the op, is it ok? Since that was a browser redirect and sign in page, so i just took a shortcut.

It should work with any apps that support quick reply from their notifications so while I've not tested it with FB messenger, in theory it should work ?

That's an excellent point - tbh the app actually left beta yesterday & I'd actually forgot to remove that caption from the OP ?
However since it was mentioned in the Portal post more people have downloaded & I'm guessing that's a big part of the reason so I'll honour that commitment.
Let's say.. anyone who's commented on the thread or liked the OP I'll send a promo code to. Anyone left hanging in 2 weeks (when the trial expires) will hopefully email me & they'll get one too. Unless anyone has a better way to go about it? ?

Tbh mate I've not looked at RAM usage at all seeing as the app does nothing in the background whatsoever - until you receive a notification/SMS etc.. although judging by my other app ReadItToMe that sounds about right.
I'll do some testing but unless it's causing you an issue I wouldn't worry
