Smartwatches

Hey guys I'm lost on a few things. I know that HTC is coming out with a smart watch by Christmas but I was wondering if anyone knows of any that will work with our phones via bluetooth, wifi, nfc, I don't care. I do want to be able to watch movies on it though (yes my vision is that good) all I can find is a bunch of maybes and they all say 3g hence the bluetooth, pairing. Do I even need a sim card if I'm not planning on using it as a standalone phone? Even the forum here on XDA is a lot of arguing and speculation. I need help, for some reason I want to watch movies on my phone and I also want notifications and blah blah. Anyone know anything about something like this or am I dreaming? Thanks guys.

You're dreaming

Just get a Pebble and be happy with a watch that can actually be usable as one (go swimming and battery last at least five days)

Thanks man, after hours of more research your right, I am dreaming, they have video player phones but the reviews are horrible. I will look into the Pebble as the below poster suggests. Thanks for responding to my midnight crazy post guys.

Not sure I'm understanding your question but the Sony Smartwatch 2 works perfectly with my HTC One and has quite a bit of functionality and apps.

Just wait till the Moto 360 comes out. And once the iwatch comes out all smartwatches will really step up their game.

The Moto ACTV can run a full android OS. look into that, maybe. gotta be comfortable with some non-idiotproof rooting though. there's not a huge following for it so the method is there, but only for the seriously committed.

I love my Sony smart watch 2

It's not the quantity of development, it's the quality. And we have some fine developers. Good luck

Good bye! We won't miss ya!

Well development is dead for any phone that's a year old to current and the future. There clapping down on security with these devices and this is the price we pay . Only the nexus devices have tons of roms but pretty much the same roms with different features . There's also the fact that phones are that good nowadays that you don't really need to change alot. If i was you i would wait that lg g5 don't look that great to leave a note 5 for. Goodluck man ✌✌

I had the galaxy so 5 for a while. It had to say of roms but the phone was getting slow. So I upgraded to the LG g5. I was not happy with the g5 , it was glitchy and I'm imo cheap. And there is no development for the g5 BTW. So I traded it for the note 5 and I'm actually loving this phone. I do wish for more development on the note 5.
It's funny that you left an unlocked phone that has root and development for a phone that does not have any period. When you left because of lack of development.

You got my vote, for sure!!!

Bump.

Team mynogen has decided to continue development away from xda. This page is no longer valid.

Can this phone be unlocked for another carrier?

Title says it all. Does anyone know if this can be done? If so, what carriers and how do you go about doing it?

Nothing to do man. Just pop a sim inside. Mine been on T Mobile for a frw months
Sent from my SM-N920P using Tapatalk

Yes, it can definitely be done. However, it can't be done with free tools found on XDA.

Idoneapps.apk works like a charm

It can be done, as i have been using a Pakistani career sim on Sprint's Samsung Galaxy Note 5.

Is external drives needed?

I know that Drobo was founded in 2005; the 1st Raid 2.0 came out in 2007 & the last came out 2012; my question is since there hasn't been a a new Drobo in the last 5yrs is the net, memory cards & devices more reliable now & U don't need 2 carry/ store external drives anymore from a business standpoint?

Are you talking about for PC? Or for mobile smartphone/tablet? It seems to me that you mean for PC, if so then you're in the wrong place and you'll need to go find a PC forum, this forum is for windows and android mobile devices.

Actually, a photography forum would probably be better, there are probably many of them, take your pick, they'll all be about the same.
