Gear S3 with Samsung phones (custom ROM) Questions and Answers - Samsung Gear S3

Hey all,
I thought I would create a new thread where owners of the Gear S3 and a Samsung phone with a custom ROM installed can discuss their problems, solutions and tips.
Samsung Gear S3 = Model R760 (bluetooth/wifi) | Firmware R760XXU2BQC5 (Mar 2017)
Samsung S5 = Model G900T3 | Firmware G900T3UVU3GQC2 (Mar 2017) | LineageOS 14.1 (04-05-2017 official nightly) | TWRP 3.1.0.0 | Rooted
Nexus 6 = LineageOS 14.1 (03-31-2017 official nightly) | TWRP 3.1.0.0 | Rooted
I've tried the Gear S3 paired with the Nexus 6 and I did not have any problems. Phone calls work from the watch and I can reply to SMS messages and even click "Read More" to see the entire conversation. The Samsung software installed easily on the phone.
I've also tried the Gear S3 paired with the Samsung S5 and there have been problems:
1. Samsung Gear app can be installed on phone but does not run due to a modification error message. To fix this, open build.prop in /system and change ro.product.name=samsung and ro.product.manufacturer=samsung to another brand like lg or htc (in lowercase).
2. Gear S Plugin and Samsung Accessory Service apps (required) cannot be installed. Play Store says they are not compatible with my device. I had to manually install the .apks for them which then worked.
3. Transferring pictures and music to Gear S3 from the phone does not work. When a file is selected to transfer, the app crashes and reboots the phone.
4. Phone calls do not work from the Gear S3.
Other than that, the watch functions the same as it did when paired with the Nexus 6. Has anyone been able to get phone calls working on their Gear S3 and a Samsung phone with Custom ROM installed?

Hi, thanks for the thread.
Samsung Gear S3: SM-R760 (Bluetooth/Wifi) | R760XXU2BQC5
Samsung S4: Model GT-I9505 | Firmware: I9505XXUHOF2 | ROM: Resurrection Remix v.5.8.2 | Nougat 7.1.1 | Rooted
1) "YES" button do not work on phone calls. "NO" button work
2) S-Health not sync with phone
3) Picture transfer working. I did not try the music transfer not yet.
The most important to me is S-Health sync. I hope, I find the solution.

Gear 2 not connecting to S4

Hi guys,
ok so I have:
S4 with the Hassan rom installed (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2662583&page=94) :
Rom Version - V7.0
Kernel Version - 3.4.5-1424588
Build - OzcanRom.V3.2-KOT49H.I9500XXUFNE7
On my phone in Application manager I have the following:
ConnectionManager - v 1.1.10
Gear Manager - v 2.1.14062401 (not sure why it's double. This one is 6.78mb)
Gear Manager - v 2.1.14062401 (not sure why it's double. This one is 35.44mb)
Gear Manager - v 1.0.02 (this is 756kb and icon looks different)
goproviders - v 2.0.88
HostManager - v 2.1.14062401
SAFileTransferCore - v 2.0.18.4.1
Samsung Accessory Service - v 2.14.41
saproviders - v 2.0.88
Update Gear Software - v 2.140442.2011
I rooted my Gear 2. Can't get any info from my Gear 2 at the moment because I can't get it connected to my phone. It was working for several days now and then suddenly it disconnected and doesn't want to connect again. This is about the 2nd or 3rd time that this has happened. Any idea why and how I can fix this?

Ok, thankss.
Great work!The rom runs smoothly on my e330l (rom and kernel ver 4/12). However, I encounter the following bugs:
- The camera does not work. I've tried 3rd party camera apps like Google Camera, Open Camera or A Better Camera with no luck. I saw in the first post that I can use the 3rd party camera apps.
- SD card does not show up in Windows Explorer when I plug the phone into my PC via USB cable. Internal Memory does show up.
What should I do? Thank you.
Edit: I also cannot make a call. I can send and receive SMS fine and when I call/ receive call from others, the line connects but I hear nothing from their end.
WOW! Great to see Touchwiz 6.0 Rom for S4 I9506. Hope you'll make also for I9505.
Excited for this rom

Yes. 3rd party camera works now but not the stock Samsung camera, hence, no hdr.
Camera recording 4K video and 1080p 60 FPS?
Hello gugu0das, I tried all your ROMS (S5 and S7E) but I would prefer if the S5 was G900M port instead of G900S because the bootanimation is very bad and there are some useless SKT apps...
If you want you can look at that (V4 for NOTE3) : http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-3/development/6-0-1-touchwiz-marshmallow-note-3-t3349306
and (V3 for NOTE3 -> for I9506): http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...6-0-1-touchwiz-marshmallow-galaxy-s4-t3358700
Thank you

Samsung Task Changer (Recents)

Samsung Task Changer APK
This is the apk that I found on APKMirror. It changes your recent screen to something you saw on Android P. It is official APK by Samsung and I tried it on Stock S7 Flat. It should be supported on all S7 variants running on Android 8.0.
Instructions:
Download APK
Install as regular app, nothing special.
Link:
https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/samsung-electronics-co-ltd/task-changer/task-changer-1-3-01-61-release/samsung-task-changer-1-3-01-61-android-apk-download/#file
ENJOY!
How to unintall?
I have installed on a galaxy note 8. Since Samsung Task Changer does not support multitask double windows, i would like to uninstall it. How is it possible?

You have to install the latest version of task changer. That version supports multiwindow: https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/samsu...-task-changer-1-3-01-62-android-apk-download/ You can uninstall in settings > apps > task changer
Install the BadLock App (That App Is The Reborn Version Of Goodlock)

Smart Things app cannot cast audio from TV to phone/tablet on many SAMSUNG devices

Hello there. I have a Samsung QE43Q60A TV.
I want to cast the audio from the TV to my phone/tablet with the use of Smart Things app. GUESS WHAT?! It's not possible on most of the SAMSUNG devices that I have tried.
THEY ALL HAVE BEEN UPDATED AS WELL AS THE SMATTHINGS APP.
Let's sum it up:
- Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 (Android Pie, unrooted but knox flagged) : NOT POSSIBLE
- Samung Galaxy M31 (Android 11, unrooted) : NOT POSSIBLE
- Samsung Galaxy S7 (Android Pie ported rom, rooted): NOT POSSIBLE.
- Samsung Galaxy A71 (Android 11, not rooted): POSSIBLE
- Samsung Galaxy A5 2017 (Note 10 Lite port of Android 10, rooted) : POSSIBLE.*
*previously tried with the TW stock Oreo rom and another port, but on Pie and it was NOT working.
Guess what?? The A71 is pretty useless to me and the A5 2017 is SUPER SLOW.
I have found no way to make this feature work on those other devices. Rooting those recent devices is out of questions. I have tried both the Play Store and Galaxy store version. Useless.
Any help? Thank you

Samsung Galaxy Tab 4 7.0 (SM-T230)

Hello Everyone,
I have a tablet of the Samsung brand.
Samsung T230, Galaxy Tab4 7.0 Wi-Fi (SM-T230)
Samsung Galaxy Tab 4 7.0 - Full tablet specifications
www.gsmarena.com
Looking at all the posts that have ROMS available, I am confused as to select which one.
I am looking for a stable release of the most latest version possible which will perform the following.
1. Removed Bloatware
2. Improved Performance
3. Updated Youtube and Youtube Kids
4. Wi-Fi should work
I saw quite a few ROMS however, some are saying that they only work Snapdragon versions, some degaswifi mentioned which is a new word for me.
I would appreciate anyone who could assist in selection. I am familiar with the process of getting root access and installing TWRP.
Please Help.
Thanks.
Hello!
I have searched for the same thing, but the android version no longer supports youtube, I have to use an alternative client. NewPipe is good.
As for the ROM, I use "cm-11-20211124-UNOFFICIAL-degaswifi", it has a slightly updated part.
DEGASWIFI is the code name of the tablet.
I am also searching for the same thing i am from India can anyone help me for the same problem atleast i can make my childhood tab to something useful
hello i need custom rom for t230 that can access youtube
