Hello Forum Folks!
I am new here- Hi to everyone!
I have 2 questions concerning the Watch:
1. Can an incomming call be taken by a voice command or by pressing the main button?
2. Can you make the watch answer your question the same way Google Now does on a regularnie phone- not just by displaying an info but answering out loud by the speaker?
I am on a skiing vacation now- operating on the watch with a glove does not work well, so solving the above-mentioned matters would make the watch a very handful tool!
Best Greetings from the Alps ?

Best way is try it out yourself.

1. No, you have to use the touch screen
2. No, the result is only displayed, no audible feedback, but you can use the wrist gestures in this case, so you should be fine, even with gloves.
Thank you guys!
I think these issues will be considered by the Android programmists in the future.

Hey guys, new to this forum.... Coming from the Samsung SDX fourms and the Samsung Transform......Terrible phone btw!!!
Okay so I just got this phone today and LOVE it, its 100x better than the transform. The only problem I have with it is that when you take a picture it makes the "camera focus" noise and the noise when it actually takes the picture, even when the phone is on silent. Is there any way I can make it so that when the phone is on silent it doesnt make that "Camera" noise?

Probably in the wrong forum, should be in the Q&A.
I personally use google voice, and turned on missed call notification. I wish they would update the app, but ya know, it works for sms.

This should be in Q&A
\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\
but for your specific question, just go buy a i'M Watch it does everything you need like Notification!! Pricy for some of you all!! But very good intuitive device, bought one for my Girlfriend, ever since she never missed 1 sms and phone call ever again!!
HI... sorry if i posted it wrongly..
I am watch is good. but not as what i wanted.
what i wanted is an aaps to pair 2 devices
1- Motorola Xoom ( or any)
2- SE - Mini Pro ( or any )
this aaps will actually notify anything coming from the SE- MINI PRO to the xoom.
the concept as I'm watch / LiveView is good but can it be expended between device such as tablet to phone, phone to tablet or vice versa.
Ive done some market research and i found none of the aaps available meets this requiements and thats why i questioned in the Develoment Section. Because i think most of the Pro Developers in XDA might get an idea of what this aaps can do .
Imagine when you are on your Google TV, and your phone is in silent mode. under the pillow while u are watching your fav show.
or you are playing Online game with your friend on the Samsung Galaxy tab and your mom is trying to reach you several time telling you that your cat is dead?
its open for exploration...
i dont mind paying 1 doller for a brilliant aaps like this.
with over 3.7 mill android activated during Xmass.. i think people has started to have multiple android in their home and this concept is ... brilliant.

Hi,
New to this forum and this is my first post. Just bought a Samung GIO and so far I am very happy with it. Lots to learn as there is lots of features and customizing compared to my old iPhone. I have been playing with the short cut feature but I was wondering if there is a way to create a short cut so I can turn off and on my USB tethering but touching an icon or widget. Is this possible or do I have to do this by making an app?
Appreciate all replies.
Thanks in advance!
Found the answer to my own question. Download Klink Demo app. Does the job.
Hello there,
it's now been 1 week since I have my new Note II. Must say: awesome
I know that I haven't discovered all phones feature but I'm exited to discover them. Last cool thing found out: Say "Cheese" to make a photo :laugh:
I've got some question :
1) Actually I've got a TPU case but I would to change it. I'd like to have a Diary Case but I could not find any usefull. The biggest problem was to extract the S-Pen with the diary case I've tested. I'd like to have one that does not have this problem and that have a hole to hear well calls without open it. It should protect well if it accidentally fall down (but I didn't like things like Defender Case). Could you suggest anything?
Optional : Have the possibility to put the phone horizontally
2) When I press the Home button, when it is in stand-by, I must wait 1 second before I can unlock my phone. Why? I'd like to have it immediately. I already disables S-Voice, anything else to do?
3) I'm searching a little bluetooth keyboard, not little as the phone. I was asking me: should I search for a keyboard with trackpad or is it not usefull? (I need the keyboard mainly to take notes)
4) S-Pen : Do you manage to write properly? Is there a cheat or anything? :silly: I've have tested to write something but it seems hard for me
5) Are there any Must-Have apps for Note 2?
6) I've have got problem with the stock email app. Doesn't download mail even with syncro on etc, I delete the email and then he re-download it. Is this normal?
Thanks a lot guys :good:
PS. Power to the Note 2!!

I cant answer all the question as i do not have any knowl3dge about the accesories for note 2
Ques2: try and go to the developer option and turn off all the animations or maybe change it to ×0.5
Ques 4: yes, but i have heard that some have got a too sensitive s pen, and if you have that you should get it replaced

Thanks for the answer. Seems not to be gone this way..
Really? Should I give them back the phone to get it replaced?
Adding another Q..
I've got a Galaxy S charger, can I use that to charge the Note 2 without problem?
No one could help?

1- you should really visit a accessory or mobile shop which keeps all kinds of stuff, there you'll see variety. seeing just the pic and ordering isn't gonna satisfy you
2- I really hate when people curse about waiting 2-3 seconds for a job to be done. i mean how long can be one second
3-you should search galaxy note 2. in my opinion lend a normal Bluetooth keyboard and see if it works with your phone. i read it's possible, but try it first.again accessory store could help. i saw a apple keyboard being connected to note 2.
4- you gotta practice with the s pen. i have used the phone for 2 weeks, and with continuous typing(swype) i manage to write well. do try swiftkey3 and swiftkey flow with pen. they are good apps.
5-must have- no, there isn't actually much use imao, according to my daily use, maybe for others it is. yeah i do make drawings for time pass or write memos instead of typing them in my stupid and not understandable by normal beings , s note and paper artist are enough imao. if you do a lot of video viewing or are new to android air view might help or really are a multitasking user or a busy one, multi window should be a delight.
6-if you can normally use it now just don't give a damn what happened
hope i helped you. if i did hit thanks

Create your own list of 'must have apps' according to your preferences.
For me it would be Opera Mobile, Kindle, Kobo, UB Reader, Google Translate, Merriam-Webster, Advanced English Dictionary and Thesaurus, Quickoffice Pro, Note Everything, Currency, Astro File Manager, Endomondo, Sports Tracker, NBA Game Time, MX Player Pro, Winamp Pro, PowerAmp Pro, Sound Hound, TuneIn Radio Pro, Convertor Pro, Gallery Lock Pro, Smart Tools, a dozens of games and of course xda premium

In comparison to SmartqZ this is a toy with a limited functionality. Isn't SmartQ Z a full blown Android 4.3 smartwatch? This is more of a bluetooth extension with caller id and speakerphone.

yeah, but why not have both
does the watch also work as a regular microphone for non-phone apps?
Hi, thanks for the review :good: - I was wondering, does the watch also work as a microphone for non-phone apps like the sound recorder or google voice search?

Sorry, it only does what is supported by BT protocols, so it can't be used as a sound recorder or Google Now search (like when you push multi-function button on in-line remotes of various headphones). But you can do voice dial by speaking a name of a person in your contact list, and it accurately dials it.
I wonder what these smart-watches will evolve into within the next 3 years or so.
I have big phone (inew 6000) and I hoped this gadget wil be usefull but i disappointed (26 Dolars from focalprice)
1. The last dial button is big and i often push it accidentally - annoy me
2. The speaker is quite silent (for empy office is ok but not on street)
3. I see on display icon of smm or email but it dont work
Is it available in india? can anyone send me the link?
Notificstion?
Does the watch have notification for SMS? No need to read the text just notification that it has been received?

This is a review of X-Boss HB-216 bluetooth watch with smart functionality...

Thanks for the review of this humble watch. I ordered one today based upon your review. I have a Windows 8.1 Nokia Lumia 521 (AT&T 520) and need a hands free device for my wrist. You would think this would be an easy find since all headsets have this functionality but noooo. There are a few bands that will ring/vibrate and allow taking a call (all with tiny displays and watch time outs) but no others I can locate that will allow voice calling. None of higher end smartwatches (including the newly released this week Windows sports band which has NO SPEAKER) even allow answering calls for the Windows OS. Experimenting with an old headset, I found I can call and send a text using the Windows personal assistant, Cortana with voice commands (likely send email as well). I am still experimenting with what I can retrieve with Cortana but am hoping for full voice functionality with the watch.
