Hey,
is any developer out there who's making a geocaching companion App for Gear S3?
There is an App for Android Wear (c:geo wear) but nothing for Gear S3.
I just found an old version for Samsung Gear on GitHub, but it's developer doesn't work on it anymore.
github.com/ ehcloninger/cgeo-gear
I just got the following information from it's former developer:
I started on a project for the Gear S in early 2015. It was a prototype app to test the APIs. I was contracting to Samsung at the time. The code is all in open source on GitHub. I would say the project was 75% complete, with a very big "however".
github.com/ ehcloninger/cgeo-gear
The project had 2 parts. On the Android side, there was a plugin for c:geo that listened for messages sent from c:geo, packaged the data to send to the Samsung Sync API. I had to build my own version of c:geo to generate the message. If you don't have the plugin for Android Wear, you could change the Intent to accept the same message as Android Wear. The c:geo team were not willing to add another menu item for Samsung watches.
On the Tizen side, the Javascript code accepts the Sync API call and gets the GC data on the watch. It displays the information according to the design guide of 2014/2015 for the square watch. The design style was changing with the round watch and I didn't update it to match. I was about to put the parts together to allow the wearer to navigate with the watch, but I was told in a meeting the next watch wasn't going to allow Location APIs for all developers, so I stopped working on the project.
If you are a developer, I would love someone to finish the project. Feel free to fork my repo and make it your own.

I would also love to see this happen. I'm not a developer either, though.
Nobody out there?
Hopefully...
Maybe 'Quick GPS Position Pro' is something for you...

I'm sorry, but no, that's not very helpful for geocaching...
So what do you need?
I downloaded this source which seems readable, but I am new to geocaching...
So I might help
But: remember, we do*NOT have a compass on our Gear S3. So...*no possibility to show a direction

Hey there,
I know about the lack of compass.. But wouldn't it be possible to use the GPS for showing the direction? Like standing on position A and showing just where to go to reach Position B?
When this isn't possible it could be helpful to send an actual Cache to S3 and Show it on a map and your actual position aswell.
Perhaps you have a look on c:geo Android App, gathering ideas!
Thanks for your interest!

Hey, are there some News? Dumdidum?
Nothing?
I'm not a developer either, bit an company app for c:geo would be great!
This thread has more than 2.000 views, but no one will develop an App?
Or tried someone already and it isn't possible?
Of course it's possible.
I just recently got a S3. I'll take a look at it. I already have the c:geo Gear app running.
I see if I can get it to work completly an then develop it further. I just have to get familiar with the Tizen development tools and APIs.
Hey SgtSeppel! That's sounds great! Hope you Could Do it! Hope to get updated here
SgtSeppel, great news!

Solution would be to plot your vector and project your direction - that is how it used to work on the early GPSs (I still have a Garmin geko 201 without compass and it works out your direction by sampling and vectoring between the last two points to give you a heading - of course if you walk backwards or hold the GPS upside-down that confuses things when looking at the screen!)
I've used Here Wego to navigate next to cache. Works well from C:Geo just choose navigate to and select Here Wego from phone and it starts Here Wego navigation also in the watch.

Isn't Here WeGo a street/road navigator?
For geocaching (and other navigate activities) I need to enter a position (poi or even a route) and like my watch to show in what direction the next poi is.

The app Quick GPS position pro, do already have implemented bearing, it shows the direction you are moving to. Ofcourse it is not usefull when you don't move. Just walk three meters and it is accurate again.

Nike+ Running was released for Android last night in the Play Store.
DISCLAIMER: I AM NOT THE DEVELOPER OF THIS APP. IM PURELY PUTTING THIS HERE FOR INFORMATION. ANY BUG REPORTS SHOULD BE SUBMITTED DIRECTLY TO THE APP DEVELOPER.
Full description here:
The most popular running app is now available on Android, for free!
Map your runs, track your progress and get the motivation you need to reach your goals. No sensor or additional products needed, just grab your phone and go.

- There’s even shoe tagging. Type in the name of your running shoes to track the distance they’re logging and see when it’s time to lace up a new pair. You’re never done running, but your shoes might be.
- Need extra motivation? Add a widget to your phone’s home screen to show when you ran last, display your total mileage, and for even quicker access into a run.
- Some features such as Share Run and Cheer Me On require users to be connected to a wireless network for full functionality. Please note that continued use of GPS running in the background could dramatically decrease battery life.
Market link- HERE
APK Link- HERE
When i tried to download this from the Play Store it said my device (HTC One X) was incompatible. I have installed the APK directly and it works perfectly!! Post below if you find its working for you too!!
EDIT: If you want the latest updates you need to download and install market enabler (will add apk in a sec), change country to t-mobile (us) and in Play store hit menu -> settings -> my apps, and there should be an option to update nike+.
Market Enabler- APK Link
OP updated with APK download!!
once i went into settings in the app it crashes and wont come back untill i reset data on app. probably because my DPI is changed to 241 instead of stock 320 :/ no nike runnning for me... yet
Seems to be working fine on my Arc. Will go for a run later to confirm!
Thanks for uploading.

Don't work on my galaxy nexus...
I have it, and happily using it on my samsung Galaxy Note, with ICS.
However, I just recently noticed that it has been eating up my battery, even when I am done using it. According to ICS battery consumption, it is on top of the list, and even eating up greater power than the screen.
So , how do I properly shut this app down, including its background processes after using it?
does anyone have the latest 1.0.2 apk for this with stability fixes? In the UK only O2 customers can get this app until the end of the year

Hi All,
Would be great if someone could develop a means of launching Tasker tasks from the Gear S2.
Ideally (my opinion) this would create a number of gear apps on the watch that could be assigned to launch chosen tasks (apps: task 1, task 2, task 3...).
This would allow easy launching of tasks (task apps) assigned to the gear's app shortcut widget.
To illustrate I've attached 2 images. The first shows the Gear S2's app shortcut widget.
The second shows how the shortcuts could be correlated to launch tasks if the tasks were assigned as apps (image from WearTasker a Tasker launcher for Android Wear - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.cuberob.weartasker&hl=en).
Will value your thoughts.. Is this feasible? Does a Tasker launcher face the same difficulties as faced when porting Tasker to the older Tizen smartwatches or is there an easier way to only launch tasks on a connected phone?
Cheers
yeah
push..any ideas?
dahod83 said:

Yeah. A dirty method (requires some setup on the Tasker side) but this might be easier to develop: Autoremote is a tasker plugin that lets you react to commands sent via various communication methods including URL calls.
http://joaoapps.com/autoremote/direct/
It might be possible to create a number of S2 apps that each call a specific Autoremote URL (in the background without displaying anything on the watch, or quickly closing the app once the url has been called - for a cleaner UI/no UI other than launching the tasks themselves). These URLs would be set up to trigger Tasker tasks, so opening an app would trigger a Task.
Additionally there would have to be a method of assigning a URL to each S2 app.
This is beyond my ability, but maybe someone would be up to it?
WearTasker is a Tasker app for Android Wear that also produces 3 apps in the app drawer that allow you to launch Tasks directly from there. Maybe we should try to reach out and see if they can do the same for the S2.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.cuberob.weartasker
No Tasker app for the Tizen Gear 1 & 2 & S since few years, so for the S2......
I would really be interested in this also. Would be great to be able to control my home automation via my Gear S2!

Well, it will be paid, but I do care about non-Samsung community. One walkaround I can think of is release the gear app free so everyone can download it, but I will charge the android app. I don't know if anyone has done this before :-/
Have you guys used any apps like that? Can the android app and the gear works together?
Another issue that may come up is that many users may think this is a scam because the app is actually not "free" and rate it bad. I really don't want to mess up this release.
I don't know what you plan on charging but I know writing apps takes time so I will gladly pay instead investing my own time if not necessary.
Hopefully support and updates will be good

I'm actually looking for a simple watch face. Simple as in no fancy design. Digital clock, watch power, weather, date, next appointment. Maybe phone power as well. Similar to the Apple Watch with the selected complications/widgets.

It can be done. I've only seen one developer do it though. One of his apps is called Calendar Analog Watch by Alex Rokhlov. Think he's out of Russia. He puts a free watchface with limited functionality on the Gear apps store. The app requires an Android companion app off the Plays store to work. To unlock all the premium features you do it through a purchase on the Android companion app. It's basically the same system anyone uses to make money off of app development for Pebble smartwatches.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=shu.gear.calwatchanalog&hl=en
I think what you want to do from a marketing perspective is do a free version that is limited. Maybe can only fire off one task through tasker. And then for a couple bucks you can unlock the full featured version of the app that will let you have X amount of tasks available. Maybe check out what other app makers did on Pebble and with Tasker, like this one: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.kodek.pebbletasker&hl=en

There's an app available in the Gear store called "Philips Hue Remote" for $5 U.S. (so you probably need a Samsung phone to access it). Have not tried it; the developer listed is Philipe Wechsler.
Is there any posibility to access the full store with my Oneplus 2?

Hi there,
I am the developer of the one and only app currently available in the store and you do not need a Samsung phone as it is an standalone app! Right now the app has everything you'd expect from it, but there will be some significant updates over the coming weeks and months. If you miss something or if you have ideas for an improvement please feel free to contact me at [email protected]. Thx!

Hi Philippe. As the developer of a great looking app I suggest you petition Samsung to provide non-Samsung phones with access to paid gear apps.
Potential revenue for you and other devs lost because they've placed these restrictions.

Right now you cannot create groups or scenes from the app, but if you create them with the philips hue app on the smartphone, you'll able to see them on your gear as well. In a future version (not too far away!) you'll able to create groups and scenes from the gear as well. Removing/hiding apps might get supported as well later, but first there will be an big update where the homesceen can be customized directly, i.e you will be able to select and sort lights/groups/scenes and other functions you see on the homescreen.

Thanks, You're right, I hope they fix it soon. The app ecosystem is presently so fragmented and unsupported that it undermines the worth of an otherwise amazing device.
It's an often reported issue on XDA. Here's a recent thread describing the issue but the problem is also mentioned elsewhere:

Hi Philippe, I just downloaded this app. Works well and looks outstanding! I thought I was going to have to wait for Samsung to release their SmartThings app before I'd be able to control my lights with my S2; So glad that's not the case.
For reference, I have 14 hue bulbs and several groups, including light strips, blooms, and a pile of A19s. You should post this app on https://www.reddit.com/r/Hue/, I'm sure others would be interested as well.
Paid apps availability
Hi guys,
I conntacted Samsung about the issue with the paid apps and non Samsung smartphones. The answer is as expected a bit odd:
"Regarding your inquiry, we would regrettably inform you that only free application could be downloaded on a non-Samsung device, and paid applications will be available in the future." ..and some usual blabla.
However I just submited the first update for my app and in the section where the applicable devices can be selected to new Items have appeared:
- "Non Samsung Phone (Android)"
- "Non Samsung Phone (iOS)"
So I have no idea when exactly paid gear apps will be available to all users, but I guess it cannot be too long. In fact I hope that this will even be the case when the update gets available, we'll see

That was my first thought too, but then I'd had to purchase a SmartThings Hub which is not even available in my country so I decided to do it by mself I sure will post it there as soon as I've setup an appropriate page.
Nice setup! Please tell me if you need some additional features as I can imagine you'll need some extra functionality to handle so many lights as you have.
Hi,
I'm waiting for my Gear S2 classic to arrive and I'm wondering if this app or if there is another app for LiFX smart bulbs? I could use TaskS2 app but like the idea of using the bezel to control brightness.

My app does currently not support LiFX and as far as I know there is no other app for this. I've just looked at the LiFX api and I could actually add support for LiFX (or maybe another app). For now I do have other plans, but when the demand for LiFX gets big enough I'll consider adding support for them as well...

Fair enough I doubt the demand would get high enough it's not as popular as philips hue sadly. How difficult would it be for me to try and code it as I doubt anyone would produce an app for lifx sadly.

The app turns the screen white, cranks up the brightness to 100%, and keeps it this way until the user presses the back or home button. The display of the Gear S2 can actually get pretty bright, producing enough light to see everything in a 4 x 4 meter room. Here is the source code:
Code:
<html><body style="background-color: #ffffff;">
<script>
tizen.power.request("SCREEN", "SCREEN_NORMAL"); // won't work properly without this line
tizen.power.setScreenBrightness(1);
setInterval(function(){tizen.power.request("SCREEN", "SCREEN_NORMAL");}, 10000);
window.addEventListener('tizenhwkey', function(){tizen.application.getCurrentApplication().exit();});
</script>
</body>
</html>

Off topic:
This is my most popular app by far (2,610 downloads since Mar 29, 2016). Surprisingly, only 7 people rated the app. I was wondering why I don't see the comments on the app store page, and it turned out they only show comments that were posted by users who live in the same country (I live in Canada and no one from Canada rated the app, hence no rating). That's why if you live anywhere but USA and Germany most apps in the app store will have no rating, which is stupid :silly:
install hangs
hi - I've tried to install your app on my gear s2 classic but it hangs at the 100% mark. I know some installs can take a bit of time - the longest I waited was 10 minutes though which I think should be sufficient? Can you lend any advice to what the issue might be? thanks! :fingers-crossed:
I would factory reset the watch (there is a quick reset option), because the problem is not in the app/apps. 7000 people installed the app so far and no one complained.
If you are not installing from the app store, make sure you have this line in the config.xml:
Code:
<tizen:privilege name="http://tizen.org/privilege/power"/>
Finally a flashlight app that stays on if you move your arm. (auto wake). love it, will rate you. #Belgium
Great app, thanks a lot for sharing
I have just one little issue with it: leaving the app will not reset screen brightness to the original value

Thank you! The next update (coming some time next week) will fix this issue
The update has been submitted to the app store and is awaiting approval (usually 2 days). Here is the updated code:
Code:
<html><body style='background-color: #ffffff;'>
<script>
tizen.power.request('SCREEN', 'SCREEN_NORMAL');
originalBrightness = tizen.power.getScreenBrightness();
function terminate(){tizen.power.setScreenBrightness(originalBrightness); tizen.application.getCurrentApplication().exit();}
tizen.power.setScreenBrightness(1);
setInterval(function(){tizen.power.request('SCREEN', 'SCREEN_NORMAL');tizen.power.setScreenBrightness(1);}, 10000);
document.addEventListener('tizenhwkey', terminate);
document.addEventListener('visibilitychange', terminate);
</script>

From the app store.
I'd like to have this when I get a Gear S2
How to find in app store
Hi
Sounds like a useful app. I search for "white light" in apps store but only find one for phones.
How can I find the app for the s3 gear?
On the watch I found an app called torch. Is that it?
Hi Eveman,
I have not released a version for smartphones, so the apps you found must have been developed by someone else.
If searching under GEAR tab in Samsung Galaxy Apps store brings no results, I can only suggest trying it again in a few days. Once I tried searching for my Always-On apps and it brought no results, tried again later - and it worked.
Please let me know if that helped.
I have the app, thanks works great. Do you know the shortcut I would use in GWD to make it a button (like com.samsung.weather is for weather)?
Hi andrewtac, thank you very much for your feedback! Try this and let me know how it works: 55V5m8QGTw.WhiteLight

Thanks, worked! New to the watch, love it. Especially showing it off to my apple buddies.
I cannot find this app in the Play store for Android anywhere. Can you put a link up so I can use this flashlight app. I love this app and my new pixel 7 pro didn't copy it. I'd like to have this app on my phone because it works and that's all it needs to do. Pixel 7 pro and everything thereafter is going to be 64-bit architecture, so update it to that and please put a link here so we can get the thing.

You must be confusing it with some other app, because this app was developed only for smartwatches running Tizen OS (that is, Samsung watches released before 2021). I might develop a Wear OS version of the app some time in the future, though there is already a built-in "flashlight" app that works pretty well.
Hey there Guys,
I am looking for this watchface, because I loved that on my huawei watch gt 2e. Now I upgraded to Galaxy Watch 4 classic and I seem not to be able to find this one here, I attached.
Does anyone know, where to put watchface requests, or have that watchface?
Kind regards, mobshredder

Did you try emailing the developer of the watch face?
Not yet, will try it. That's a good idea

I wanted the same thing and no one answer me.
There is a possible way.
First You need to download samsung watch face studio and connect the phone to it(takes 5 min with cmd there are isntructions all over the internet).
Then you can go to watchland website and look for breitling faces or what ever you want (all of them are "gwd" file from old tizen watch.
At the warch face studio select "file" and then "import gwd resource" and run it on the watch.
Worked for me,i have tested someting like 30 faces and most of them worked perfect
Ay, a great hint, Gt-2992. As I haven't found, who's the producer of that watchface, I have been looking since yesterday, how to port the Hwgt- watchface into a SGW4 watchface, by hand. I Will try that today, as you wrote and then post the result here. Do I have to be careful in any steps of your hints?
great thanks
I don't think so.
the "cmd" only for the ip adress so the watch face studio can connect to your watch4. Thats the "hard part".
The watch face studio came from samsung.
I know that you cant import "watch" file from watchmaker app to gwd or other like this
Great, I will take care of that hatd part then and reply with a result here.
Here's the watchfaces ported preview, running on my sgw4 yet as test-version. Calories counter had to be switched to a supported complication.
Here's the final fixed watchface zipped
Did you make it or downloa it?
I downloaded and extracted the hwgt2-one and then extracted the gfx, put them together in watch face studio, changed some gfx with paint.net, mixed them in watch face studio, changed the calories counter and gfx, changed some specs with the several hands, and created the copy as *.wfs for sgw4. Adb worked fine for me also. So not too hard to get it work.
Secret ingredient is as in every recipe, love
I'm glad I was able to help with some
Yeah I am glad about that too. Happy, that I learned to get the way through the process and the applications, with your tips and also. That's worth a lot and gets revealed potential.
You're kind of a teacher for me. Thank you GT-2992
No no it's ok.. I could not do all the next steps you did so easy..now i'm trying to find a way to make some tag huere connected watch face,there is one that i really want and i can't find a way to do it.
Thats the watch face:

Well, I'll see what I can do with it tomorrow.
Maybe I'll find this one. If so, I will build it.

I know it came from tag heuer connected 2020 3rd generation.
I don't have a link but i found it also in watchmaker app.
But i don't like watchfcss apps because they make it laggy and uses more battery

Ok, then I'll have a look at watchmaker and extract and rebuild it. Please be a little patient, I'm excited on that tag heuer port
