Thanks for this announcement, but I don't see Frigidaire as a selectable brand

It would be nice if you can 'create' your own remote model and then 'learn' the IR right from the original remote. Just need to wait for more apps to be developed.

I use a 3rd party app for my remote control on my Note 3, but having the remote just on my wrist is super handy. For my wrist, all I need it to do is power my projector on/off, switch sources on my receiver, and control my XBMC and other media playback on my HTPC.

I'd like the option to add multiple TV's instead of just one. This is on my wish list of things to tinker with if I can get the dang SDK to function.

A menu button is desperately needed as well. You can't check sky channels properly with only channel up and down.

Anybody can upload installable file(may be .wgt) for this WatchON app?
People like us with non-samsung phones don't have Samsung Apps and cannot update or install new apps.
Thanks.

Agree, gear2 with nexus4 here.

Yes please! upload whatever you guys can because we non sammie phone users dont have access to samsung apps so we cant download the apps
If anyone knows how to get samsung apps apk to work on non samsung phones, let us know!
I got as far as to install the apk and have it show as a tab in gear manager but no luck beyond that
Edit: changing brand and manufacturer to Samsung and model to GT-I9500 in build.prop lets me open samsung apps and download them to my gear!!! woohoo!

Wont work with either my vizo or shar big screens. Does work with directv but need tv

I went to Gear Manager -> Samsung Apps
I cant find WatchON there

Same problem here! I run stock ROM on GT-I9300 and there is no WatchON in Samsung Apps (launched from Gear Manager or app drawer, doesn't matter) or Play Store (didn't expect to find it here, but I looked anyways). Force checking for updates shows nothing.
Is there a way to download the new APK? Or should I just be patient?
EDIT 20140507:
I got it today! I just had to be a bit patient. Apparently new updates aren't rolled out for everyone at the same time.

It can be found in Utilities in Samsung Apps in the Gear Manager.
Today a new update is available, v1.2.4:

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}

WTF? The update just adds the ability to control air conditioners?
How about the ability to add my surround sound receiver already? The only thing I can do with this is turn on/off my projector. I'd like to be able to at least control volume and switch sources. Smartwatches are usually purchased by early adopters that have a little more sophisticated setups - which means we have home theaters with separate receivers that need controlling not just the TV and STB.

who has the previous version ? In de previous version My airco was listed (fujitsu). It worked perfectly ! In the version 1.2.4 it isn't listed anymore ! Can somebody send me a link where ik can find it !

Good day! Tell me, what sets the APK on the phone when you upgrade WatchON? I can not update the version on the clock ... In Gear Manager instead of [Update] - select [Open]

Same thing with me. I am using L02 and the issue started about 2 days ago. I am using the Weather Widget (free) as an alternative. Looks like the issue is directly with the huawei weather app.
I have checked if the gps works fine but it gives the right location.
I have force closed the weather app and cleared the cache
The system clock gives the right time only the weather app shows the incorrect time. I was thinking to do a full wipe or go back to emui 2.3

I have the same issue with 5.2.1 ROM. Its only appears when I set the location. Without location set the clock is correct.

Fix
I have managed to fix it. You would need root. Then follow the instruction from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=56016096&postcount=1902
Now the weather widget shows the correct time.
If it works don't forget to press Thanks!

Look I tried to help. It is your choice whether you take it or not.
Changing the local prop can cause OTA issues. The device will still download the update but wont install it. I think once the update is available it is fairly easy to change the location and the language back. If you think this is a "messing around" then you should buy an international version next time and wont have any issue .

Haha, nice try. It was only an information for those who are not familiar with those things and follow other instructions and then cry that they can not update or brick their phones

Same problem ,after change /data/cust/prop to my location the widget weather doesnt appear but the clock is OK .Any other sugestion ?

problem is gone
Hi!
Same Problem on my Honor 6 plus last 3 days.
Probably it´s a bug on weather.com.cn server.
I didn´t change anything and now it works like before.
Time is right without doing something in system...
Greeting
Sunny

Hi,
My honor 6+ is an international version. I've noticed at many occasions that the current weather did not seem right according to what could be felt. So I started comparing current weather on two of my devices; Honor 6+ and Xperia Z. It's quite surprising because the default source on both the devices is accuweather.com and Honor 6+ reports thr current temperature to be 6'C and Xperia says its 1'C with London as the current location.
Can anyone think of anything that could be causing this? Although I bought the international version still sometimes it does show my location as Shenzen brrrrrrrrrrr. Its wierd.

Auto-rotation not working

Hello, everyone!
Yesterday I discovered that my device doesn't detect its own orientation. It was after I tried to record a video and it came out vertical. I thought it was a ROM bug (since I was using the CyanogenMod nightlies), but I flashed with RSD Lite (cleanly) both 5.0.1 and the latest 6.0 ROMs and it still doesn't work. Sensor apps detect changes in the numbers when I move the device, though. I haven't dropped my Moto MAXX, and I always use it with a case...
Is there any way to recalibrate the sensors or something? I can provide any information or log if you tell me how to grab them.
Thanks!

Okay, this is REALLY weird. After a whole afternoon believing it was something software-related, I gently hit my device against the table three or four times and now it rotates correctly...

I was kind of desperate about the matter, probably I would have gone with the hammer option if the table hits hadn't worked.
By the way, and following my original post, is the gyroscope a mechanical thing? Or is it electrical?

It's the accelerometer.
Here's an issue Samung had with the Galaxy S6 at launch a year ago:
Samsung confirms screen-rotation problem with some Galaxy S6 Edge phones
http://www.computerworld.com/articl...-problem-with-some-galaxy-s6-edge-phones.html
Some Edge users have raised various theories about what causes the problem. One theory is that Samsung's fast-charging cord fried the chip that controls the accelerometer sensor, which affects rotation of images on the display. Another theory is that certain apps on the Edge — either third-party or pre-installed apps — have not been updated sufficiently to be compatible with recent minor Android OS updates. That lack of compatibility could somehow restrict the software controlling auto-rotation.
A Samsung technician on the 800-support line told Computerworld that users affected by the auto-rotate problem are being asked to test the faulty device by first going to "safe mode" to allow the phone to operate without third-party apps loaded by the user. If the problem persists after that test, the users are then asked to try a "hard key re-set" of the phone, which basically wipes all personal data and contacts and initiates a factory reset upon a reboot of the phone. The technician said personal data can first be stored to a remote backup location through the Samsung Kies or Samsung Smart Switch applications.
The technician didn't indicate what Samsung might do if the hard key re-set fails to fix the auto-rotate problem. A Samsung tech will walk users through the various steps required to perform the tests or Samsung can do the tests remotely.
The Samsung technician's course of action seems to indicate the problem is related to incompatible software, not hardware, but Samsung is not saying officially what the cause or the solution may be.
An Edge user named "IDOG" reported early Wednesday at Android Forums that he may have found the culprit. He said the rotation problem occurred when using the third-party Nova Launcher, but not when using TouchWiz, which is Samsung's own front-end touch interface. Nova Launcher, a third-party Android app by TeslaCoil Software, replaces a user's home screen with one that is customizable.
IDOG said Nova Launcher has so far worked fine after he uninstalled it and then re-installed it without borrowing any of the settings from his prior install of the launcher.
As a result of IDOG's field work, in theory, something as seemingly insignificant as user settings inside a third-party app could be part of Samsung's problem with some Edge screens not rotating properly

None of those seems to fit with what happened. Well, let's hope it stays functional. Thanks.

General Work profile notifications are not working

Other than the Wear Os app the Galaxy wearables app does not see work profile apps and will not push their notifications. Let's see if that gets fixed at some point.

if you have a samsung phone and use the secure folder as work profile, you can choose if you want the apps to be notified or not

Seeing the same thing. None of my work app notifications from employer show on the watch

I think this is another "only works on Samsung" thing.
I had this problem on my oneplus phone. Switched to a Samsung and it was working fine. (that was the experience I had on previous generation wear os and Tizen watches at least)

Yeah, it'd be nice if there was some sort of workaround for this. Even just as simple as bridging notifications without allowing actions on the Watch would be more useful than the current lack of anything.
It's also sort of odd, looking at the notification settings in the Wearable app shows that it does see that there was a notification coming from that app (gmail, calendar, etc.) even if it was a work profile notification, but won't allow the work profile apps to be synced on anything other than a samsung phone.

Yes I observers the same, I tried to bridge the notification by some apps but not working, You got any luck with Bridging? Also DUO Mobile app was working awesome with Andriod OS 2, But it isn't working here... Looks like Tizen thing is preventing it.

I've got a Galaxy Watch 4 Classic connected to a Not 20 Ultra. When I check in the Galaxy Wearables app, and go into Settings > Notifications and then hit "More" under "Most recent on phone or watch" I get a list of all personal and work profile apps sending notifications.
All Work profile apps and Duo Mobile had been se to "Off" by default. I've turned them on. We'll see how it goes...
{ETA: Success! Duo (via personal) and Slack (via Work) are sending notifications to the watch! I can't act on Duo except via the Phone, though, so not sure how useful that part actually is.}

Yeah, it seems like work profile works when paired to a samsung device, but not anything else, which is unfortunate.

Hey guys, I was facing the same issue of work-profile notifications not being visible on my galaxy watch 4, so I created an app to solve it. Please give it a try: WorkNotifier.
It's completely local, secure, and open-source. The link to code can be found on the play-store listing itself.
If you face any issues with it, please let me know. I would love to help you out.

General Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 gets new straps, faces...

FYI, a few items for our Samsung Galaxy watch 4 :
Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 gets new straps, faces, but still no Google Assistant
There are a bunch of new Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 straps available as well as new faces and features. Still no Google Assistant, though.
www.androidauthority.com

let's see....

Further update....No update yet for me on the Watch 4 firmware, however just got a Samsung Wear update a little while ago, gives native Do Not Disturb and Bedtime Mode Sync, previously had to use the excellent DND-Sync from here: https://github.com/rhaeus/dnd-sync

Galaxy Watch4 Series Levels Up Holistic Wellness and Customization With New Update
New Galaxy Watch4 series update empowers users to reach their goals with enhanced health and wellness features, and express themselves with more personalization than ever before

"Users can purchase the new watch straps beginning late February."
It is interesting that, based on their front photo, the Link Bracelet (metal) looks similar to the one I bought from Aliexpress months ago. It is greater-than-lug width and has the gap filler. Although the links are not as fancy (and have no idea about the clasp, since it is not shown).
