Does anyone know if gear 2 will work in the s7 edge? I use it everyday with my s5 i preordered the s7 edge i hope it will work. Not the gear s2. The old gear2
Haven't heard anything official. However, I would assume it will work. Can't imagine Samsung not making their own smart watch that's only a couple years old not work with their new phone.

It shows gear manager and I know that I have the gear 2 and have always gotten new updates for the new watches... Therefore I can conclude that all phones run the same gear manager and if my s5 runs my gear 2 then my s7 edge will run my gear 2.
Yeah i hope so too and you both are right i dont see anything that the gear 2 will not work

I expect that as far back as the Gear 2 would at least be compatible. I have the Gear 2 Neo and the Gear S2.
I can confirm that gear 2 is working i am using it now ? can close this thread

+1 - I had some issues getting it to pair at first but I'm fairly certain it was because my old S5 was still paired to it.

All but S voice on gear 2 neo works with s7
S voice doesn't work when using gear 2 neo with s7 edge.
It gives an error saying svoiceproviderss doesn't have permission.
Anyone else facing this issue? Any suggestions on how to fix it?

I found this too and have just managed to get it working so try this... firstly shut down the Gear app on your phone and then go to Settings > Applications > Application Manager and scroll down looking for everything that has the orange Gear icon. Press on each one and uninstall them - you should be able to get rid of several modules except the main 'Samsung Gear' app so ignore that one. Once you've done that, go to the launcher where all your apps are on the main screen and restart the Gear app - press on your already paired Neo and the software will connect with it, reset it and then go and download all of its modules again. Then go into the settings in the Gear app on the phone and set the 'double pressing home key' option to S Voice. Give it a few seconds then double press the button on the watch again - hopefully that'll have sorted it for you.
Gear 2 Neo
:good::good: The post about removing all Gear modules and restarting Gear Manager worked for my Neo and Samsung Galaxy S7 (not edge).
Hi guys,
I've sold my S7 edge (need money quickly) and now I've a poor J5, better than nothing but I miss my S7 E a lot...
Can you guys tell me if you know an app or a port of the S7 and S6 edge sidebar with contacts and apps launcher for other devices ?
Thanks a lot guys.
Best regards.

Try this: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.neolanalang.edgescreen
It isn't as good as the s7 edge's but it should do the job. I purchased this app before when i had the galaxy note 5 but seen as though i have the s7 edge now, i have no use for it. It may have had updates since i used it and may also include features which the s7 edge's sidebar includes. Purchase the app and try it, if it isn't for you or does not work you can always refund it within 15 minutes of purchase on the play store.

I had to return my replacement Note 7 due to the overheating bs, so I ended up getting the S7 edge. Was wondering if it was anyway to get the secure folder apk from the Note 7 to install on my S7 edge

Hope you enjoy your s7 edge
I would also like this if possible
Same here bro. I think it'll be part of the upgrade to 7.0 that will include Grace UX.

Maybe you can try Samsung My Knox? Not sure it will be the same (unable to test it myself at the moment)

Be patient, Nougat 7.0 will arrive in a few weeks for the S7 edge, with all the Grace UX goodies
Yeah I've been using myknox but not exactly what I'm looking for, I hated returning my N7, I guess I'll wait and see what happens. Thanks for the info

Tried myknox and secure folder on the Note 7. My opinion is secure folder is far more better, can't wait for it to come to s7
I just exchanged my incendiary AT&T Note 7 for an S7 Edge, which is also a decent phone. I'm wondering if there's a way (without rooting) to reproduce any of the following software features that I got used to on the Note 7:
Secure Folder (instead of Private Mode)
New organization/presentation of the phone's Settings
Optimization page in Settings
Custom image for always-on display
Any advice appreciated.
As of right now none of those options are available. From what I've read all those options will be available on the Nougat update. Welcome to the edge bud.

you can change the aod pic but root and xposed is required. the other options no unless there is an xposed module for them and i can not say if there is or not as im no longer rooted. welcome to the edge family btw and hope the phone treats you well, battery is awesome for me stock and all. (custom roms one day)
please when they will have the new software s7 galaxy sm-g935A
From what I have noticed they typically are releases between the 23rd and 28th of the month.

I also came from Note 7.
There is a new AOD version released today for S7 Edge and one of the changes includes the ability to set custom image.
Wish there was a way to do the sPen gif creation on the S7 Edge. Its one of the main feature I miss from the Note 7. Anyone know if there is a way to do this on the S7 Edge.

I've only had the S7 Edge for 2 days (although owned one when they first came out - it was the S7 Edge that pulled me away from the iPhone) and I am SO MISSING my Note 7. That was the best phone ever. That S-Pen GIF feature was great. I want so many of those S-Pen features which is why I went for another Note. Now we probably have to wait another year for a Note 8. I think Samsung might lose a lot of money by not getting new customers but I think the old Samsung customers (like us) will continue to purchase their products.

Not even close to the same. On the note there was a screen capture feature that recorded a 15 second gif inside of a selected area. One of the best features on the phone.

I am missing this feature a lot so today I ordered a Samsung Galaxy Tab A with S Pen. Has the same S Pen software on it as the N7. On sale right now too. $100.00 off so it's $249.99 US. + free shipping.

Hope this holds me over until the Note 8 comes out. Missing the N7 so much. Nothing compares for me.

Hey guys,
If you are following Fortnite, you've seen the new exclusive skin for only the Note 9 and Tab S4.
Now I know that people ported the S9 ROM and made apps believe, that their S7 (edge) is infact, an S9.
I have no clue about build.prop edits and I don't know if I am breaking something or not, so it would be cool if you could help me.
I know that the Galaxy Tab S4's model number is "SM-T830" and the codename is "gts4llte".
Can anyone help me? I can't spend $900 / $650 for a device to just get a skin in a game I really like.
Thanks!
i'm using a s8 and edited its build.prop to match the note 9. I got the pop-up and played all 3 games but never got the skin. Yesterday I extracted original Tab S4 Firmware, took even more informations from that build.prop and edited my S8 again. Phone even went into Tablet mode afterwards. Got the popup again, played 3 games. Lets see if this works as the Tab S4 has no IMEI and probably Fortnite isnt checking for that now.
If it works I'm willing to help, else it's just a waste of time for you.
