Sidesync Mac release? - Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey Everybody,
Anyone have insight as to when Samsung will release SideSync for Mac? I have been using it in bootcamp and it's been great. Also, I am surprised Samsung does not promote this more. It's a great feature and has become indispensable to me.
Cheers

They released the new 4.0 version of Sidesync for Mac this week, however, they made an error and are using the old package install format.
I emailed the developers and asked them to correct it, as it is now, it will not install on El Capitan. If you are still on Yosemite, it should work for you.

BTW- If you are on El Capitan, you can disable SIP and install it, then re-enable SIP. That is what I did, however, the program doesn't work anywhere near as smooth and nice as it does on Windows. Which is really not that surprising as it didn't work that great on a Mac for Sidesync 3.0 either. Hopefully they'll smooth out the bugs. The wireless connection is pretty much unusable for me, however, now the USB connection isn't very good either.

Thanks. I am on El Capitan and I don't want to go to the trouble of disabling SIP. So, I'll just wait for a fix. Rather disappointing it's performance isn't up to snuff. Here's hoping the update will increase the performance, but judging by the time it too to release the Mac version since announcement we could be in for a long wait.
Thanks again.

There is a new version of SideSync uploaded to the Samsung site. No clue if it works in El Capitan yet, it's two decimals higher than the OG 4.0 release from a few weeks ago.
** Edit: It works. Still some serious lag when using your mouse in in the SideSync control panel. Hopefully they can fix that. Also, Wifi disconnects. (Could just be me, dunno. It has no problem on my Windows PC).
Other than that, you can now take calls on the computer. That is pretty much the only feature I was waiting for.

Any chance you can send me a link to the site you're finding? I still only see 4.0.0 on the SideSync site and it doesn't install on El Capitan.

Additionally, it left a kext in the user folder in a folder marked USSUD. I believe that originally was supposed to go into the startup items. I trashed it with no ill effects. Also, if you go into the app and choose a SideSync keyboard and pick US Colemak, it seems to be a lot smoother.

Swype from 2.07 rom required

HI can anyone tell me where to get new skype from 2.07 rom ???
thanks in advance.
You won't find anyone with it here. The best solution is to simply flash to a ROM that has it.
I have so much data on phone can't backup all of it so dont wana change rom for time being........
Im not sure where to grab the version of swype that has been extracted from the 2.07 rom... i am trying to find it myself!
The swype cab created from the version ripped from the Samsung Omnia 2 is all over the web though... google should bring up a couple of places to download it from.
Does anyone know of any differences between the two versions?

You will have to search in the underground... Extracting the software and offering it as a cab is clearly not wanted by the creators and owners of the software. Offering links to warez is completely against xda rules.
The difference between the 2 might be some more language support, and that the HD2 version was made for HD2, as simple as that. I think it still might be an option to flash a ROM which carries it on board - or, at least, as long as this is tolerated.
Maybe in the close future, HTC will bring another ROM update which offers this great piece of software. Or, as stated otherwise, Swype might decide to make a retail offer at some time. If they do at a decent price, I believe they could do great business - as seen with other products, at unreasonably high prices, you won´t sell big, but at fair pricing, you can succeed.
I cannot find the new version anywhere!
If anyone has a link or would like to email it to me that would be very much appreciated!!

I had the same thing, only installed yesterday so didn't do much checking of the phone. Quite a few problem were caused by the T-Mobile version . Data connection is screwed and all email passwords needed to be reset and my Wifi password are also gone lol. Did some reading online as well and quite a few other people have experienced the same problems, some have even had to HARD RESET to get their phones working correctly, fortunetly for me just uninstalling the CAB and giving the phone a few minutes resolved my Data connection issues , will put back on the Omnia version and leave it at that for the time being.
So I advice using the newest version of Swype with EXTREME caution!!!!
I tried it after much hesitation... Had to do a new setup for all email accounts, data connection and wifi connection. But it seems to be fine now, I'll see in a few days if it stays like that.
I'm using SWYPE WVGA 3.9.10.10.5032 on my HD2 without any problems.

Had the same, but all I had to do was re-enter the passwords (and mail servers for gmail) and re-run the connection setup wizard. Now I'm fine and dandy and the software is nothing short of awesome... Supports Italian, German, French, English and Spanish; I tested all languages and it works fine
I'd say it is a crucial addition to the HD2, as I use it every day, and it makes my text input much less of a chore. It is particularly useful because of its multi-language support. I've never had any problems like those described, thankfully.
have you guys done any soft resets since the initial reset after installation? I also found the keyboard became slow to start after I played with the setting. the omnia 2 version is working better for me and with the htc skin looks awesome.

I can't believe no one else posted this...
If you overwrite the ModelID with the file provided, you are effectively telling your phone that you are now....a...tmobile hd2.
The swype keyboard has protection in it...only a tmobile hd2 will work with it.
hence why you need the modelid
now here is the kicker...
Say sprint - you run sprint tv. get an error. wanna know why? sprint asks "what phone" and your phone replies "tmobilehd2.
Same thing with prl updates...
I think you get the point...
when you overwrite the modelid, all exchange accounts - gone (sorta). Your 4 digit pin become a lockout - no pin will unlock it.
in short, bad things happen.
And this is why you always provision your phone before you set it up. part of provisioning is setting the modelid...
which is why people on mighty that forgot to provision before seting up exchange need that fix e-mails cab...
any questions?

@leepriestenator, if I don't use any provider software, I can install swype without any problem right ?
leepriestenator is correct. Thanks. As our phones are all unlock where we are, the problem is just resetting the mobile provider. It is working fine on my phone, though the phone identity is now T-mobile_Leo.
Having said that, it is a much improved version over the one in Samsung.

bluetooth printing?

searched high an low and found a bunch of nothing except jetset print5 which i wouldnt mind but mighty rom doesnt have it.
does anyone know where i might be able to dl it or if anyone knows of a better app that would be great.....thanks.
ok, so no one knows, how bout this....does anyone know how i can take the jetcet print 5 off my old touch pro and then install it onto my tp2?
Hi Tregrad,
You could try CAB'ing one of the version found in the TouchPRO/Fuze OEM Repository.
I do suggest contacting Weksttek before going through the effort however so as to confirm that JETCET Print is compatible with the new Bluetooth implementation found on the TouchPRO2/Tilt2 and WinMO 6.5.x.
Cheers,

Here you go. Jetset Print 5 all in a nice little cab. I installed it on my TP2 (which it did install to the main memory) to check it out but I have no way to test it. Give it a spin and see if it works out for you. Hope this helps.

that's what I call service. I was going to suggest looking in the windows marketplace, that's where I got my install of it.
awesome PRB thanks a lot i really appreciate it!! I believe there is a 5.1 version out there but this will do just fine, again...... THANKS!
I looked all over the place for it but it costs money and it comes with teh phone so i didnt think i should have to buy it when i have phones that already have it on it.
wow having a real hard time setting it up. will try again later
As pointed out my earlier reply, certain versions of JETCET Print are not compatible with the new Bluetooth implementation (stack) that is present in WinMO 6.5.x and WinMO 6.1.21000+. The best approach to use would be to download the trial version and test it before hand - since it's the latest version.
Here's a link on the subject from about a year ago:

Yea i thought he would follow your advise because you posted as i was typing my reply & uploading the cab i found. I was unaware of the different versions for the new bluetooth implemintation. I did not create the cab I just found it. I was also unable to test the cab as i do not have bluetooth capability on my printer. You advice was probably the best course of action.
I browsed through their Online Support knowledgebase and discovered that there is a 5.4.1198 version floating around. I also noticed these KB articles which confirm my suspicion that earlier version will likely be problematic on new versions of devices:
4516: What Bluetooth stacks does JETCET PRINT support?
7813: What printers does JETCET PRINT v5.2.1059 support?
7839: The HTC HD2 and HTC Touch 2 with JETCET PRINT 5.4.1187 in ROM are unable to locate the PlanOn printer via Bluetooth. What is the problem?

I was trying to respond to a post, but due to the newbie restriction I have to post it here.
F-24 in case you read this, I have the same issues running MMI codes. It works if you use the actual keyboard instead of the on-screen keyboard.
Slade, great job on this!
I just have a quick question. Since I have installed your rom, it keeps asking me for sim network unlock pin, when I restart. This did not happen with the stock version. And now I cannot find apps like Skype on the market. If I do it on my computer, and click to install it tells me that it is unavailable in my country.
Any help will be greatly appreciated!
Anyone?
Maybe someone could point slade or f-24 to this thread?!
cant use pm bro?

Anyone updated to 8107 yet

I saw this post today
http://www.mobiletechworld.com/2012...l-out-started-get-it-now-and-update-manually/
And I plan to try it on my Arrive when I get home tonight but I was wondering if anyone has does this yet?
i have tryied it, with the instrinic rom it does not work. also with the Titan rom for 7 pro from ansar. but he is building a new rom called New Tech Rom that is able to update and hold the unlock... because my device gets lock after the 7740 update i have a custom rom on 7740 for now.
I can confirm that this does work on a stock Sprint Arrive. I updated to 7740 first and then to 8107 and I have a fully functional phone.
EDIT: NEEDS LANGUAGE PACK or dialer won't work.
And just used the same tool to take a Radar 4G from 7740 to 8107.
Does internet sharing show up in the settings menu after updating On the arrive?

Nope. Also, after doing this update (I went 7720 -> 7740 -> 8107) the cellular menu in settings does not work. When you press it, the screen flashes and then nothing happens.
Nevermind on the cellular menu not working. That was me being dumb and forgetting to do the en-US language update (yes, you have to do the language after you do the main 8107).
No internet sharing and yeah I just figured out about the language pack also. Both the Radar and the Arrive need it.

what about the 160 limit on sms for the arrive?
(thats the other thing i really miss)
can some one tell me how you got it to work because every time i try it i get a error that say "Error: No update files.". Does my phone have to be unlocked for this to work?
160 limit still exists and I agree this is very annoying.
This works if your phone is completely stock. My phone is not unlocked or modified in any way.
Just download the zip, unzip it to a folder, download the 7720-7740 cab and put it in the same folder as the WP7 Update Cab Sender bat file and double click it. I needed to install the "if needed install this tool".

Still broken -.-
I called Sprint, as is my monthly ritual. They are "aware" of the issue and are "waiting for Microsoft" (not that doesn't make any sense but that's what they said.)
For guys that already tried, could you kindly give some details on what steps should we follow?
---------- Post added at 02:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:18 PM ----------
OK, I just did the 8107 update, and the phone boots up, good sign I'll give it a try and report back. I followed the instruction listed hereI know it's actually from XDA, but that tutorial listed the detail for specific sprint arrive, which is what I have. I just got it for free from MS challenge, so far love it.
Nope, not on TANGO either...
I just saw this thread and though... hmmmm... my Arrive is full unlock with ANSAR's custom 8773 (TANGO port) but it too has the 160 txt limit ...
Its weird that SPRINT would do that since Windows Mobile handled more...
Im going to ask ansar if there is a way to take this limit off... Maybe its a registry setting that needs to be changed. Like with Windows Mobile, we may be able to tweak it to send even bigger MMS messages (pix/vid)... jejeje
Also, for those wondering, this is the thread for ANSAR's Custom Rom...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1499981
^yeah i can't believe this hasn't been fixed on any of the custom roms yet. Huge disappointment but I don't have any other complaints so I'm pretty happy overall. This has to get fixed eventually. My tp2 handled this just fine.
Does going to 8107 enable anything from the stock ROM (i.e. ICS) or does it just fix the issues listed here http://www.microsoft.com/windowsphone/en-us/howto/wp7/basics/update-history.aspx?
(The disappearing keyboard is annoying, but I use the hardware keyboard for the most part. None of the other issues affect me much. So if it just fixes those items listed, I'll probably hold out.)
Frankly I didn't notice any difference at all to the Mango 7720 official release. I just can't resist the urge to upgrade to the latest available "official" version. Not too much into the custom rom yet. I had not so great experience on my old touch diamond, so I didn't do unlock on my tp2, not on this either unless there's something very significant on Tango.

So... Internet Tethering , MMS update for video , and SPEED increase are not enough to push you to it huh
Thats cool man, I respect that ...
I NEED my tethering so I had to do it, plus... I loved custom roms on WM, and love them on Android... Now I can add my WP7 love to my Arrive... jejeje...

Well, I just got it for a week or so, and I'm satisfied so far for the existing functions. tethering, because I have wifi at home and office, so it is not that much a problem yet, and the fact that my A500 can't take the Ad-hoc without root and I'm waiting for the official ICS, so even with tether on my TP2, I've not been able to use it at all for a long time(or forever) for me, why bother Of course, the main reason is laziness and I didn't like the custom roms too much on WM before. I tried hard to find a perfect rom, but couldn't, none of the available roms were to my like. So I started to cook my own, but found it too much a trouble, I ended up with some half ass roms, to my like, but with problem. that was on my first WM phone, HTC diamond, on the second, TP2, I just didn't bother at all.
