Gear Fit 2 and Nexus 7 - Samsung Gear Fit

I'm struggling with this, I can't get the Gear Fit to synch with Samsung Gear app on the tablet.
I've downloaded the Gear app, Gear fit2 plugin, and updated the Samsung Accessory Service
It still doesn't find the Gear Fit 2
The Nexus 7 is running Android 5.0
Any ideas what I can do?
Btw it works on my Samsung s7 edge and LG G3 without issue
Also, any way to get the 's Health app on the tablet?

Might be because it doesn't have 1.5gb ram

Hi
I was in the same boat as you and this post solved it beautifully

essentially you need to change to rules files that determine which devices are compatible with the app
the only other thing I did is changing tabletsupport="false" to true

[Q] Is there a CarHome app for SGS2?

Look in Samsung Apps, it's under category > Utilities
I'm not seeing it --under Samsung Apps/Utilities I see:
Kies Air
Samsung Remote
Samsung Mobile Print
How To Videos
Tweetcaster
MMAJunkie
Sanook!
Job Search
TekTrak Mobile Security
Nor does CarHome show up in a global search of Samsung Apps. I do see it in the Android Market, though.
go to the samsung apps app and search for car home, it's definitely there

I cannot see it either in Samsung Apps nor on the Market :-(
Car Home in Samsung Apps says it's not compatible with SGS2, Try this out instead http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1257329

App request camera control

I would love to be able to control the camera on my phone with my Fit. Kind of like a remote trigger.

Which the app?
A GoPro app would be awesome...
I'd buy a camera control app too. Great Idea. Selfies for everyone!!! xD uhauhuhaua :good::good::good:
Google Wear watches have this camera control. Does it support only for shooting? Dunno, but it would be enough for me and my Gear Fit.

I would also pay for it!!!

Really cool idea! +1

I'd also pay for this feature Wish I knew how to make apps
They are talking about Gear Fit Launcher on Apps from GP for Gear Fit
thread and using with Tasker. Maybe you solve it with this. I didn't understood how to use Gear Fit Laucher and if using Tasker, do I have to root my phone; not interesting about it becouse it is powered by KNOX.

No need to root
Hello, you can control your camera by Gear Fit using GF Launcher + Tasker shorcut. No root needed
And you don't need to turn on your smartphone screen, just open GF Launcher, click on your Camera app shortcut and then click on your Task shortcut.

Thank you. It started work at first time. And after "Naming Sequence" value "Chronological" the next picture have new name; not overwriting the first/ old.
New feature for the Launcher would be if it could stream the screen what camera is viewing on Gear Fit screen. Is the bluetooth bandwith enough, dunno. But not needing real time video, just to check if the aiming of camera is right.
Gear fit camera App
There is an app on the play store.
There were a few bugs to start with but now I find it really good.

Process monitor only shows itself

Why do process monitors on the Nexus 9 only show themselves in the active process list? I am trying to figure out which app is slowing my tablet down and not being able to see other processes makes this rather difficult...
Sent from my Nexus 9 using XDA-Developers mobile app
I believe you need root to see other processes since Android 5.
Viewing processes on my Nexus 6P works fine and it is not rooted.

I was referring to Nexus 6P running the Android N preview . I do not notice this problem with Marshmallow on Nexus 6.
Other utilities (like radio settings) became unviewable without root after Android 5.

Is samsung S Health working on Android N preview 4?

The app keeps crashing and it is not able to get any data from a Gear Fit 2.
Testing on a Nexus 6P with N preview 4 (latest S Health version)
Same here. It´s not working (Nexus 6p, preview 4).
I'd like to know if it's a issue from samsung (app) or Google (android version)?
Its working now!!
