Google fit doesn't tell miles walked? - Sony Smartwatch 3

Anyone know of a way to do this? Since it can track steps, it should be able to approximate distance walked. That's how all those fitbits work. Anyone know of an app that does this? Not using GPS of course.

[Q] What is a good fitness app?

What is a good workout app?
I don't really need one to track my running, I need one to remember my reps and time etc.
My favorite app as well as the only one I am aware of is jefit. You can also download another app from the same developer that will let you view a diagram showing a specific workout. Good luck if this helps please thank me.

What kind of a workout app are you looking for? You said one that remembers your reps. What are you doing specifically?

Cardio trainer, referring to the free version only handles cardio not lifting weights. But i do use cardio trainer as well.

Anyone had any experience with this app?
I've been using Tasker and NFC tags for a bit now but came across this and it looks promising, has a load of negative comments on the play store but from what I can see a lot of that is about the authentication.
Thinking of using it but just wanted to know if anyone had any first hand experience with it first?
Can you give a link of the app please?
Sure, its here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.microsoft.onx.app
Yup, I've used it. It's a nice idea, but fairly limited in what you can do i.e. you can't control most device settings

What to do.

I have two incredibles Verizon branded. What can I do with them? I use att now. So reactivating them isn't really on the to do list. I've looked into rooting and flashing and seems a bit more complex than with my Samsung captivate. If there is something really neat I could use it for it might be worth the trouble. Ideas? Anyone wanna help a fella out?

MOD EDIT: This isn't the marketplace, if you want to sell them then post in the marketplace and not in any of these forums. Thanks
You could use them as an mp3 player, use wifi only and play games and surf the net, or download a gps app that stores the maps locally since you don't have service on them.

I know the GPS is much better than on the cappy I use now so there is a wonderful idea. I wonder if I could use it for data logging on my motorcycle. Like as a accurate speedometer (with delay for changes in speed) a way to log top speed and as a HD video recorder. Do you have any suggestion as to which GPS nav software to use?

I would do this, and use it as a dev phone for testing (or learning how to compile, if you don't know how) ROMs.

The only navigation app I know off the top of my head that store maps locally is navigon. I have never used it and I see mixed reviews for it.
Sent from my ADR6300 using xda app-developers app
As I have 0 programming knowledge for computers at this time and with God's good grace starting school for it in the winter quarter it does interest me however I fear by the time I am proficient enough the development of this phone and thereby this thread will be long dead. I do want to root the phone and perhaps install a ROM that removes everything but the core of what it needs to operate and a very few apps. As I have two I could use one for GPS/MP3 duty for the motorcycle. So all I'd need is the basic operating system wifi a MP3 downloaded and a good local GPS software. I would think that the GPS software alone would take quite a bit of space.

CoPilot GPS stores its maps on your sdcard (North America maps take up about 1.3 Gb) and does a mostly acceptible job of navigating without using mobile data. The free version is a bit crippled, but what do you expect for free? Street address searches and POI searches also work well even without mobile data, ideal for a non-activated phone.
Another app I use sometimes is Navfree USA. It uses Open Street Maps, so they can be hit or miss. Also, searching by street addresses is mostly broken (Open Street Maps doesn't seem to handle postal codes well). Maps are downloaded state-by-state.
So what can be removed without destroying the os? I need only GPS functions bluetooth WiFi and audio.
Perhaps gmail and the play store. Unless I can use the play store without gmail. Is there a ROM I can flash that is already slimmed way down.

I probably wouldn't remove to much. This is what I am going to do to this phone when my contract runs out with Verizon and I switch to sprint. I'm going to run cm7, which has already been suggested and use the wifi only script which can be found here:

Yes but if I'm going to use this as a GPS with navigation and a MP3 player and dash cam on a motorcycle ill need all the free space I can get.

Moved to Q&A and edited OP. Please post in the correct section when asking questions and also do not post with the intention of trying to sell, we have the marketplace for that.
Thanks

Removing any system apps or parts of the os won't get you anymore space for storage since those are in the system partition.

Will it get me more speed? Like running through 6 inches of water as opposed to 4 feet.

I don't know how much you may hit the track on your motorcycle, but here are a few suggestions that you can find on the play store.

Looks like an app I may pay for. Even if im not on a track it will still help as there are a few places on my commute I tend to open up and ride hard. Makes my ride home quicker. Seems it could also be used to log top speed and 1/4 mile times. So a lot of useful features.

ok, after hours of troubleshooting I found out it only happens if I have the Weather Bug Live notifications enabled. Now I just need to figure out who to report it to. This doesn't happen on my moto x

This is a really nasty bug that seems to affect most (if not all) of the recent Samsung tablets.

Yes. Just found out the same problem a few minutes ago.
I don't believe it happens with Netflix. Just the google play apps (Music, Movies & TV).

It's very uncomfortable to use for a long time but the lenses are big enough to give a great FOV compared to the google cardboard. Also, depending on the phone's screen size you can see the side walls of the hmd.
