Hi Guys,
Look for the Gear 2 to be my first ever smart watch, but just need with some simple questions answered, even after reading the forums, I'm not clear. Appreciate your help:
1. Is it true with the modded Tizen NE5, I can pair the Gear 2 with ANY Android phone beyond 4.4.2 like the LG V10 for example?
2. If Q # 1 is yes, can I use all features of the G2 like the IR Blaster, Camera, Cellular capability?
3. Last question, if I put Android Wear on it, I understand the Camera won't work? What else? The sound? Speaker and mic for calls?
Thank you so much in advance for your responses! Will need someone to help before I buy ....

Hey All:
I'm a newbie with smart watches and needed some help. I like the gear2 mainly because I can make calls on the watch unlike other smart watches. I have an LG G2 and I noticed a message in another thread saying that the method for connecting the gear 2 to non samsung phones no longer applies?
So my questions are:
Will I be able to connect my LG G2 running 4.4.2 to the Gear 2?
If so, does most of the functionality work?
Where can I find the new method to connect?
If the answer is no to the questions above, can someone suggest with smart watch I should get. Like I said, I love that you can make calls directly on it.
thanks all

Hi I have the gear2 and lg g2 if you use tizen mod on the watch (google it) then you can connect to the lg g2 works great.I like it because I work third shift management and I can call the cops and take video and pics right from the watch. Im waiting for the guys to port android/android wear to the watch there making great progress. Hope that helped best of luck
Hi there.
Will there ever be an option to have 2 different phones paired? I have an iPhone from my work and an Android for my private live. I want to have them both paired (not at the same time)
If this option is never gonna be available, is it possible to script it (rooted)?
Thanks!

your reply does not answer the the question i too was wondering the same , if anyone can help please
I want to buy another smartwatch to replace my good old Gear 2 and there is a lot of choice on the market now.
But if the S3 is able to pair to two phones (not at the same time obviously), the Gear S3 would become my favorite watch to buy.
So can anyone confirm if it works ?
Hello,
you propally already know that the features 'nfc.tag' and 'nfc.peer-peer' in the Gear S2 are currently not officially supported.
So I would like to know if you think that it might be possible to unlock all features (especially nfc.tag) for the Gear S2 by rooting etc.?
Or could it really be that the NFC-chip is by hardware technically unable with that?
Here is a example where unlocking NFC on the iPhone was succesful: https://www.macobserver.com/news/nfc-on-iphone-can-be-unlocked-but-should-you-care/. And here a XDA thread where someone got to unlock full NFC support on a Sony Smartwatch 3: https://forum.xda-developers.com/smartwatch-3/orig-development/sony-smartwatch-3-nfc-support-package-t3219713
If you have an opinion I would like to know it and if you have a concrete idea it would be even better.
Thank you.
Hi
Does anyone have a functional Camera apk for the Gear 2 running Android Wear?
Thanks
Any Luck
Hey there,
Obviously, there were no other replies here... but I was hoping you may have found an android wear apk that supports the Gear 2 camera elsewhere since you posted this. I've been looking for the same thing.
Any luck?
Thanks
