The only IR Remote that is on my Note is the Peel.apk. Haven't seen any other ones in the Samsung Market either.

mine had the peel Smart Remote and Samsung WatchON.
from the app: "What is samsung watchon? a new way to enhance your tv watching experience. transform your tab into a universal remote control, receive personalized recommendations, and switch effortlessly between different screens"

Well there's no watchon apk anywhere on deodexed firmwares, for both versions. So anyone claiming to have that app beside peel remote, is appreciated for posting it.

Edit: apologies, saw it now in n5110 deodexed. Thanks!
It does crash though, searching for dependencies.
Just caved and flashed the rom. App launches but is stuck at setup, at least for Canadian users, I did update app from play store with us account I have. Canadian account says not available in your country. I guess that's what's stopping the initial setup as well.
Oh well!
Btw, watchon app is also available in us play store free, but since country dependent... Same **** samsung always pulls, with smart view app and now with this.

yeah, it worked fine for me when i was in the US last month, but it does not work here in Egypt. oh well, i dont use it anyway.

WatchOn is made by Peel

I was under the impression that the peel app was to work as a universal remote, whereas the watch on app is specific to only working with Samsung TV's. I set up the peel app and it works great with my Vizio tv, Cisco cable box w/dvr, and my sony home theater system.

are there any other apps in the play store to work as an IR remote and if possible works offline.?.
The peel app needs internet to initiate everytime, rather than just once for setting up the database containing the iR codes for the device needed.

It could be perfect to post the latest all of the pre installed watch on app, I have checked on play store and is not available for my device thanks

Yes, this is what I want. A simple, non-internet connected IR app that will just let you configure the blaster to work your devices - maybe even with macro/scripting the way the Harmony remotes work.

Watch Styler App hits the Samsung Apps Store

A watch styler application is now available from the Samsung Apps Store for the Gear 2:
http://www.tizenexperts.com/2014/04/watch-styler-hits-samsung-apps-store-tizen-samsung-gear-2/
It looks pretty good so far ....

Wonderful app, finally allowed me to put the BT indicator and battery level on the home screen.
However, seems to drain battery like hell. Anyone else with such experience?

No, I haven't had the battery drain. I still have to play around with it more. So far so good though. I'm glad it was updated. Now I can custom my face watches like before.

OK. Got apk file from gearfaces.com.
Thanks.

Johnnynho said:
Can someone upload it as APK file?
It can backup as APK file with ES File Explorer.
For non-samsung phone users like me, there is no Samsung Apps to download that Watch Styler.
Thanks.

Google Docs upload. You can also download it directly from Gear Faces Digital is not working but analog is. At least it is something

Constantly customizing and loading to your watch is absolutely going to drain your battery. But normal use with just a custom face won't.

Got it to install on my HTC m8, but the watch faces won't transfer over to gear manager.

Can you please share the APK from amsung Apps? I am travelling out of my counrty for few Months and the damned Samsung Apps shows stupidily no apps as soon as your are out of your region.. not clever if their phones cannot be fully utilized on travel!!!
Thanks in advance

I think I may have found out why the new Digital Faces do not work properly. Tizen does things differently. Mostly it't the fontsize that causes the problems. As seen in the piece below of the piece of code out of the Json file. I created a digital watch and I had a look at its Json file, and this is what I found. Im wiating for @OpenMind_NL his confirmation about this. If this is it all digital watches need to be converted. Not GOOD!
"DIGITAL_ITEM":{"bgName":"","timeZoneId":"Europe/Amsterdam","clockItem":"DIGITAL_ITEM","clockTextParts":{"HOUR_PART":{"clockTextPartType":"HOUR_PART","textVerticalAlign":"CENTER","textFormatForMoment":"HH:mm","textFormat":"HH:mm","textAlign":"CENTER","maxWidth":0,"h":3,"fontSizeTizen":0.0,"fontSize":106,"w":10,"x":0,"y":0

I have digital faces working through Watch Styler. Not quite sure why everyone is having an issue. The only problem I have is that I can't change between 24hr and 12hr. All I did was create a digital theme and move it over through gear manager. How are you trying to push it over?

Oh that. Yeah I got those working too. All I did was import them. I did get the error message. I just uninstalled the app, reinstalled it, rebooted both devices and it worked.

...no watch styler in GM App Store, nor toggles..tips?
Is it a regional/device/signature issue? I'm using an AT&T Galaxy S5 and Gear 2 Neo in Northern Cal. I seem to have most apps within the store, but no Watch Styler, Toggles, etc.
Any tips?

Hi, my apk file is exactly the same size with the one from gearfaces.com.
What I mean is normal apk file installation won't integrate the Watch Styler to the Gear Manager.
Only the download and install from Samsung Apps will integrate Watch Styler to Gear Manager.
May be my phone is not Samsung and it is Sony Z Ultra.

Why starting a new thread here, when then is already one overhere (in the correct place IMHO): Gear 2 Themes and Apps
Watch Styler

Hi guys this is what I found so far I think the problem is with apps that need permissions these fail to install however apps that don't need permission install with no issues

WatchON/air conditioning system control is gone?

Hi, when i bought Gear 2 i setup WatchON to control my air conditioning system, now in WatchON there are only TV and STB... i think the last update (ND8) removed air conditioning from WatchON; is it possible to have old version?

The update was actually in the WatchON application itself. If you go into the Samsung App Store via the Gear Manager app, you should be able to find the update.

I can't see "WatchON" into the Samsung App Store via the Gear Manager app, i can see it only into Gear Manager under MyApps with no options

There are no options for watchon in gear manager, you configure watchon directly on your watch. Are you sure air conditioning is missing when you scroll down in the configuration menu?
Sent from my GT-N7100 using XDA Free mobile app

The ability for aircon came with WatchON version 1.2.1 http://www.tizenexperts.com/2014/04...-remote-app-now-ready-control-airconditioner/
I'm presuming with resetting your device it's now using an older version of the app.
Sent from my SM-N9005 using Tapatalk

Hey man, try to roll back the system if possible, it usually helps if it does not work contact support you can also contact with air conditioning servicing compan in my opinion they should know what to do in such cases. The main thing is that the aircon is all right and it's it's just a systemic problem.

Send messages without notification (WhatsApp, FB Messenger, Hangout....)

The problem: your smart Gear S2 can only reply to incoming notification. Not to mention that you can only send one message for each notification. Once a notification is dismissed, you have no way to send messages to your friend. What if you want to start the conversation first?
That's why I came up with an app to solve that problem.
It supports multiple apps: WhatsApp, FB Messenger, Google Hangout, Line, KakaoTalk, Skype, Telegram, BBM, Signal, Textra, GG Messenger, Go SMS and Chomp
*Telegram support is experimental.
* Viber dropped from the list due to being unstable.
What it offers:
- Sending messages directly to your friend whenever you want to. No notification? No problem.
- Using multiple services for chatting? You can control all of them in one list. Only chat threads you need will appear on the watch.
- No login required. Your accounts and info are safe. App has no access to storage or internet.
- Send and add new predefined messages for faster texting.
- Native interface. Bezel scrolling.
What it doesn't offer:
- Log of previous conversation.
- Not a client for any of those apps.
So, you can combine this app with the default reply to notification ability on the watch for a complete experience. I know for some apps like WhatsApp, you can view previous messages.
App will be available in the Gear store soon. Including a free version for testing.
Have questions about the app? Let me know

Looks cool. When you will be ready to publish the first beta version?

I got a couple questions, are you going to charge a fee on the Gear app store?
If you do any nonSamsung Galaxy phone user will not be able to use this app.
If you are set on charging a fee is it possible to do an app like the S2 Tasker app? It uses a companion Android app from the Play store that charges a fee so the developer still gets paid and the app is available to everyone.

That restriction has actually been lifted as of a week or two ago - paid apps are now available for purchase by non-Samsung phone users. If you're not seeing paid apps, you might need to update your version of the Samsung Gear app or the associated plugins.

I think I figured out the misunderstanding. Probably the Korean market that I'm in that's stopping me from having access to paid apps.

Will for sure buy this app, when available in the Samsung Gear Store...
Maybe you could make a free AND paid version (free version i.e. only 1 service active (i.e. Hangouts butNOT WhatsApp!) and paid version unlocked!)
Please add "Telegram" too to your services

Another great app. Keep solving all the weak points of the Gear S2!

I don't see any paid apps either. I'm in Malta, Europe. Not sure if it has to do with my region. I have all softwares up to date and created a new Samsung account from scratch just to be sure. I was never asked to enter a credit card number, and I registered from a PC just to be double sure.
If anyone has any ideas it would be great. And to the author of the app, please make it free on Samsung Store and do a paid companion app on Play store like tipztv has done with his tasker app [emoji6] Thanks

I have google play credit so I would love for it to be in the play store also but will buy it no matter where it is .
Sidenote: I was looking into starting a full hangouts app for Tizen, I know there is no API but I found a github where a group has decompiled and created the hangouts app in python. I could either create an API from it and package it or try to convert it. But in no way would it be a quick or easy task... Have you looked into doing this at all?

This sounds great. Looking forward to seeing it in the store.

App looks awesome and very useful, especially for Hangouts. My only concern is privacy. What type of access would this app have to my Hangout password, contacts info, etc

Not with the stock version of the calendar app on the S2. You will need to look for a non-stock app.
The stock app on the phone requires the app on the phone to send it the notifications real time.
