Do you guys have the latest car mode for galaxy with mirrorlink? I think its version 3 and its only available on note 5 thru Galaxy Apps store. I need the apk file. Thanks!
What you could do is download a rom and get it from there
Its not preloaded,it has to be downloaded from galaxy apps store.
I was going to install it & copy the apk to post here but it's got pretty bad reviews. Users reporting it screws up your home & back buttons even after uninstall. I could always just restore a nandroid if really needed but I don't feel like doing all that right now. You're not able to download it on your phone?
I can't. Im trying to port it thats why im looking for a copy. Thank you. I hope you can give it a try
Ok, here's what I got installing it. One is the app, the other is some remote installer? Carmodestub.apk has always been in my stock based rom prior to installing, not sure if it's required for Carmode to work but I'm including it anyway just in case.

You know you can just edit your build prop to n5 then download from Sammy store. The s6 edge car mode is different as well if you want that one

I can not install the file. I get an error saying file not installed.
I can not find the file on galaxy apps either. I have a Telus note 5, sm-n920w8.
Any help would new appreciated. I really love this app. Used it on my note 4 allot.
At first, I also couldn't find Car Mode in GALAXY Apps (UAE) so I called Samsung support and they said they would look into the problem and make it compatible with my device. I thought it's just another generic response, but less than 24 hours Car Mode re-appeared in GALAXY Apps with a slightly updated version number. You can download the APK file from the attachments. This version (3.xxx) is actually great for driving, and much improved from the Galaxy S5 (v0.1xxx) or even S6 (v2.xxxx). It is feature-rich now. It can work with HERE Maps which are more reliable and work offline, and can get location information from your contacts and calendar events (amazing feature) so you can easily select a person or event instead of searching the map. It stores the recent destinations just like a normal car navigation, and can also be configured to ask you if you want to save the parking location when you exit the car mode.

Thanks for and info. I still don't see it in my Galaxy app store, so I downloaded your provided APK. However, when I run the app, it tells me there is a new version of Car Mode and I need to update to continue (see attached), then dumps me out.

It's most probably because of the different ROM. I live in the UAE, and use XSG (open/unlocked) ROM. If you use a carrier device, you'll always get different things here or there. I am not sure you can flash other Samsung ROM's if you use USA carrier devices (different model numbers from the international version SM-N920C). However, just like I mentioned in the beginning of my post, you can contact Samsung and ask them to make it available. They did this in my case (or maybe it was just a lucky coincidence).
You can also try a direct link to the app in GALAXY App store, like this
Code:
http://www.samsungapps.com/appquery/appDetail.as?appId=com.sec.android.automotive.drivelink&equipID=SM-N920C
(change SM-N920C to your model number)

Good. I think we should (cautiously) give Samsung credit for their responsive support.
Also, may I ask you to upload the APK? I may give it a try myself but mostly for other people who may search the forums for it.

How do I get to the original downloaded APK? I searched the phone and only found CarmodeStub (that comes preloaded) and CarModeRemote, both of which are only a few hundred kb is size, not the 15 MB claimed in the Galaxy app store. If getting the APK requires root, we are out of luck as I'm on Verizon.
I'm starting to see more reviews for the app in the Galaxy app store though. So hopefully people can actually get to it now.

You can use an app like ES File Explorer File Manager which you can use to back up any app. There are a lot of similar apps but this one provides better names for the backed up apks (App name+vesion).

That's what I did (though I used Root Explorer instead of ES), searching everything I could for "carmode", and I got these reaults.

OK, you didn't find it because the apk name doesn't include the word "car", it's com.sec.android.automotive.drivelink
That's one reason why ES Explorer is much better. It is not simply a file browser or manager. The APP function is ES is a complete App management solution.
hi everybody
i am coming from a sony smartwatch 3 under Android Wear. Beside notification, the app i was using the most was Google authenticator.
do you know if i can find a compatible app somewhere ?
regard
ouf
+1
(spoke to the developers of Authenticator Plus - they said no plans for Gear s2 on their side)
I guess no one has any plans for S2
I written TOTP client for Gear S/S2.
This is compatible with One time password generator of Google/Microsoft/Facebook/Dropbox/Evernote.... etc.
I'm waiting certification by GalaxyApps.
The source has been published in open source .
https://github.com/tesurijp/TOTP-Tizen
Any easy way to install it from the source code?
You can also use wearable widgets with authy. Make sure you install the phone part from the play store and you can add authy's widget as an app on the gear. It does require the phone to be nearby though
This app has been released.
Search "one time password" in GalaxyApps.
Sorry , this app is a troublesome setting method.

I'm trying to push the file to the S2. I have the Tizen IDE installed. I can connect to the watch ok. I'm trying to move the file to /opt/usr/media/Documents/ and I get a permission denied error. I can move the file to /opt/usr/media/Downloads/
I've tried this through sdb and through the connection manager in the IDE. I get the same result.
The Documents directory has read/write for user, but not group and other. I don't have permission to chmod on Documents.
I am very new to this so I may be missing something very obvious. I've spent several hours on this and am stuck. Any ideas?
Alternatively is there a way to change the app to use downloads for the auth_keyinfo.txt file?
Thanks.

I will update it.
I add palce of auth_keyinfo.txt
Main place
GEAR://documents ( Same as before)
And copy from the following place.
GEAR://downloads/auth_keyinfo.txt
GEAR://music/auth_keyinfo.mp3 ((Change only the file name, do not change contents)
"auth_keyinfo.mp3" is able push by GearManager.

I was able to do it by putting the auth_keyinfo.txt file on my phone, renaming it to "auth_keyinfo.mp3", and then transferring it via the Samsung Gear app (Samsung Gear > Settings > Send content to Gear > Select tracks). The Gear's music player sees it as an MP3 file which is mildly annoying, but I can live with that. Have you tried that method?
Also, can confirm the app works on my Galaxy Gear S3 Frontier
---------- Post added at 05:14 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:09 PM ----------
@tesuri do you have any plans for further development on this? I just got my Gear S3 (parents got it as a freebie when renewing their contract, didn't want to fiddle with it so they sent it to me), and this app turns it from "a neat toy" to a very practical tool. My work requires many, many authenticator codes, and when I forgot my phone once I had to promptly turn around and go back home -- two hours of my life wasted on the train for nothing If I'd had the watch and this app then, I could've simply turned to my wrist for the necessary codes.
I'd love to see the ability to embed "background images" for each authenticator. In the file, they could be base64-encoded... but I don't know how difficult it'd be for you to parse the embedded images out (figuring out file type, etc).
Yes, it is working great for me now.
It doesn't work on S2. I only get black screen. What can I do? Thanks.
same here S3 frontier
black screen
auth_keyinfo.mp3 copied inside music with gear app
i was able to make it work under my gear s3, with debug there was an error showing up, unable to find reference TITLE,
i modified source file index.html where there is <script src="language.js"></script> in <script src="language/en/language.js"></script>
rebuild and installed on my gear s3 with tizen studio, now it works for me

It's available since 2015 for almost all Gear models. The new version is integrated with an Android companion well for QR bar scanning/backup/restore purposes. Google Drive support makes sync up easy.

Hi All
I want to use my Gear S3 for paragliding. Does anyone know of anyway to have the Altimeter stay on screen without timing out? I need to have it on screen for the duration of the flight which could be 1-2hrs.
Many Thanks
Myles
not without interacting with the app every 30 seconds.
I've requested the ability to keep an active app open until manually closed, and i suggest you do the same.
more people requesting it means a bigger chance they'll change it.
you can suggest changes here: https://help.content.samsung.com/csweb/ticket/createQuestionTicket.do

it also gives you true AOD, it won't even allow the screensaver clock to appear.
Thanks for the replies everyone. Downloaded the app in the link and it works great. Thank you, this has solved my issue. Now I can use my S3 for flying.

Your link doesn't work for me. I'm in Spain, and the link just brings up a page with a message in Spanish offering to redirect me to Galaxy apps. No other option, so I accept that and it does indeed open the Galaxy Apps store on my phone - but just at the home page. I need to know the name of your app so I can search for it on there. Can you please therefore confirm the name of your app?
it's called "I Am Alive"
most likely the app isn't available for your region, so your galaxy apps app opens the main page instead.

Thanks. I searched for "I Am Alive" in the Galaxy appps store and found it without difficulty, and have downloaded it. Thanks heaps. Just shows, for marketing and practical reasons it's always a good diea to state the actual name of your app whenever you refer to it.
Hi everyone,
The main reason I got this watch was to use as a secondary alti whilst skydiving. I chose it based on the fact that I could use the app to keep the app open.
I tested it during a jump today and unfortunately the watch was still going back to sleep after 2 or 3 minutes. Have Samsung updated the OS to prevent wakelock of any type or something? Has anyone got a workaround or an alternative app?
Alternatively, does anyone know of an android wear OS app method to do this? I may have to refund the S3 and switch to the Huawei watch 2 if I can't get this working unfortunately. It would be a shame if I had to, its a beautiful smart watch (although I have found it to be very limited in certain ways).
Thanks
Has anyone had any luck with Evernote on the S3?
Never tried it here hmmm good question
Yes, there's an unofficial app you can use. I use it at work and it does the job well.
https://sites.google.com/site/gearapplications/enotegear
You install GearHub from the play store to your phone, and use it to install ENoteGear to your phone, and login to Evernote.
Then search ENoteGear on Galaxy App Store on your phone and this installs the app to your watch.

ENoteGear works great.
I have a problem with loading my notes. After i start the ENoteGear on my Gear S3, the screen is stuck either at synchronization or waiting content...
Lot of Times only thing that helps is restarting the watch multiple Times.
Did this problem occured to you aswell? Did you figure a walkaround About this?

Same for me. Old versions for Gear 1&2&S worked fine but the new version for Gear S2/S3 work very very....bad and stuck major time at launch. It can works better if you take your phone and open GearHub while you launch the Gear App...... so .... almost unusable I deleted this app from my Gear
It seems when you delete a note on the web or pc app, then open up the gear app and it tries to sync, the app get stuck syncing. I've discussed briefly this issue with the developer on Twitter, but no resolution yet. It makes the app unusable.
I shall point the developer to this thread, to see if they can pop in and help.

Hi All,
Thanks for the excellent support for newbies like me. Long time Apple user and now shifted to Samsung S8+ and Huawei Watch2. Love the watch so far. Keep reading various articles that Microsoft made a powerful watchface for Android wear. Trying to find the watch face for couple of hours and all links take me to the Outlook app on play store. I have outlook installed and configured, but not able to find the watch face on play store or the watch itself. Must be doing something stupid and would appreciate any help.
Thanks again
Hi, with outlook installed on the phone, I think you don't even need to install anything on the watch. I am on Android Wear 1.5 in my moto360v2, but I can see the watch face in the Android Wear app, or even in the watch itself when selecting a watchface.
This watchface is, for me, the best made for AW 1.5, but sadly is a bit useless if you do not have a lot of appointments in your outlook calendar. Anyway, check it up!
Thanks
Thanks for the quick response. For some reason it does not show up on the Android wear app on the phone or on the watch for me. Thinking they may not support Android Wear 2.0 version. Thanks again for taking the time.

hello to you,
I have HW2 ( and S8+too), outlook mail is present as app in the phone, as app and watch face on the watch. all just downloading apk from the store.
maybe you can try to delete and reinstall from phone and see if it appear into watch too.
If not, try to download from net outlook apk for phones (possibly last version), then with 7zip (or similar) extract micro.apk (included on "res" then "raw" folder and install it directly into watch by adb command (adb install nameoftheapp.apk).
with this little "push" maybe you can have it working on HW2
regards
Reinstalling worked
Thanks again. Followed your advice and reinstalled. Now how the app and watch face on HW2. Appreciate you taking the time to help newbies like me. Have a great weekend.

Hello There, thanks for your advice. I followed your instructions to install watch face on my watch, but it could not sync with my outlook calendar on phone. Any other tricks?
Thanks
Hello
I believe watch faces has nothing to do with calendar sync but I have no idea why you can't make it work
Regards
Appreciate your response. Two weeks ago, it just worked perfect. But suddenly it stop sync and only shows " all caught up, enjoy your day". Then I reset my watch, and no matter how I re-install my outlook in my phone, outlook watch face never shows up again. Now even use your method to installed watch face, seems the "outlook connections" on phone and watch are disconnected. That's why watch face could not be pushed to phone. Other apps just works well ( I installed on phone, and it will be pushed to my watch).
Any idea how to complete remove outlook from my phone and re-install?
Thanks

Hello
You can try to clear data and uninstall outlook app from your phone and it should be deleted from watch too. Then you can reinstall on the phone again and see if work on watch. If not you can try to manually install app on watch.
Just ideas, not sure if will solve the problem.
Regards
Tried all the ways, still not work: clear the data->uninstall outlook in phone->automatically uninstalled in watch->reinstall outlook in phone->no shows up in watch->manually install on watch-> watch face showed up-> calendar not sync --> failed again.
So just be curious to ask " is it possible that the problem is caused by new version of android wear". What's the version you are using? Is it working well?
Thanks again for your help.
