I have an S4, and I haven't gotten mine to work on CM 11. I mean it does, but not very well. Gonna switch to a TW rom tonight.
S4 running CM11 and no issues with my LG g watch. Everything comes through with no disconnects.

I'm using CM 11 (4.4.4) on a S4 with Android Wear. No issues that I can see so far.
On Nexus 5, anything other than stock doesn't work well. Watch disconnects too often to be usable (bluetooth stack is dodgy on aosp or CM).
The fix is to flash Elemental kernel. Problem solved. This kernel is available for both aosp and CM.
Even in stock rom, if you flash another kernel, like franco kernel, the watch becomes unusable.
Again, the fix is to flash Elemental, with gives you the added bonus of enabling screen calibration for nice poping colors.
It took me time to discover all this. And frustration.
lost network connection

Any ideas for running CM on the galaxy s3? Android wear will not switch to connected, shows, "connecting, running sync loop". Most functions work OK but the watch is dying terribly quick. I know the moto 360 battery is supposed to be iffy, but I should get more than 4-5 hours....

I don't know about s3, but you should try a few kernels and see what works...

Well,
I tried a different kernel and still same issue. I flashed a TouchWiz based rom and it WORKED. Shows "connected". Battery life on moto 360 also vastly improved. Went from dead at 3:30 PM to 45% at same time!
I'm on DarkCM(11) for the xperia z1 and can't get it to work either.
Tested on my brothers stock xperia and that worked just fine. Il try downgrading to stock as well. :'(
If anyone gets CM on the z1 running with android wear please let me know.
I have a Oneplus One CM 11S works great on my old Gear Live and my new Sony Smartwatch 3
I read that MOTO 360 has (had) issues ?? Maybe the watch not the phones OS
Hi. My first post here and very New to all this. I have Samsung S4 with cm11 just got an Samsung galaxy gear2 neo and now i have to figure out how to get it to work with cm11 ? Can some body help

Sorry for bringing up an old post. I wanted to check in on your Android Wear connection to CM ROMs. I have a Sprint S4 (jfltespr) running CM12. I will be getting a LG G Watch R in a few days but someone else on our ROM thread was having issues with his Moto 360 and the CM12 ROM. Have you experienced any issues not connection or remaining in a sync loop?
Has anyone else experienced Android Wear issues with CM 11 or CM 12 on S4 phones? Particularly jfltespr?
Cant speak for the S4 but my LG G3 has had nothing but issues with my G Watch R since I flashed CM12. I reverted back to CM11 (recent build) and its working great, never disconnects. With CM12 it would disconnect at least 10-20 times a day its unusable.
I just installed the Google Play Edition Lollipop on my GS4 and it paired perfectly with my ASUS ZenWatch. Lollipop AOSP is AMAZING and i am so stoked it works so great!

"Connecting, running sync loop" is just a different message for the same thing - it is activated on some ROMs(?) apparently when you have Developer mode enabled. But it works the same, and this message in itself doesn't indicate there should be any battery drain.
Of course something in the ROM might be causing this problem - a logcat from the watch would help in that case, but my guess is you just need to let everything install, settle down and then reboot both devices, and the drain will be gone...
My Zenwatch works perfectly with my Oneplus One running the latest CM11S. Having bluetooth on all the time does drain a bit more battery, but that's it.
I am having an issue with google wear (zenwatch) completing some tasks:
It fails to launch a phone call from google wear (my watch simply says "try again using your phone")
It fails to launch google play for music (it gives the same error as above)
Setting reminders using google keep (same error)
Text messages sent from android wear are NOT working.
Starting navigation on my watch using voice commands works.
Other basic apps appear to be working as well.
So far I've only noticed the above listed (maybe a few others) google apps and dialer that fail to launch when initiated from the watch, I have tried another dialer to see if that was the issue.
Anyone have any suggestions or insight on what I might be able to do in order to get google wear working 100% with this ROM?
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Mine works well
I have OnePlus One with CM11 and everything works quite well so far with my G Watch R

[Q] S5 crashes

Good morning android experts
I have recently bought my s5 model Sm-G900F)
The phone has an issue which it randomly crashes and auto restart it was happening alot but after I searched many forums what i did to the phone was trying hard format,installing latest firmwares (i did that alot) i even installed CM11 for the phone and it still did keep crashing randomly and auto restart but after the firmwares it was fewer it crashes about 10 times a day now which is something really bothering me especially when you buy a last model phone and it is still new and does that you get frustrated i know have installed back the latest firmware of samsung back because CM didnt stop the issue plus that on CM there is no use of the finger print scanner and i tried uninstalling and disabling the bloatware apps
And an another issue is that there are many applications which when they start the instantly crash the phone like trix (card game by mayslawrd) and hitman go (the game)
Please i need some help because i am really frasturated and i am starting losing hope that it is a software issue on the bright side i am waiting for the lolipop update maybe the device will stop crashing
Please i need some help i am really getting hopeless.

Google Maps working slowly

Hi all,
Anyone noticed Google Maps app working slowly (laggy) with Note 4? I tried stock rom or custom rom/kernel, but I don't understand the reason.
It's not a big trouble because navigation works fine, but it's a little bit annoying. Does anyone found a solution?
Thanks!

Strange, what Rom and processor type do you have? I'm Snapdragon with POF2 stock. I just don't have any lag with it at all. It's totally smooth.

SimplRom v4F - N910F
Just only one time had NO issue, it was the first time I flashed SimplRom v3.2F and obviously I don't know why! but after some apps installation (in particular missing bloatware on the ROM) gmaps lags came back.
UPDATE: I've just take back my device after some hours charging with no connection and voila lags on gmaps disappeared! For verification I rebooted phone and lag re-appeared! totally NOSENSE.

I'd think that there's something removed in the ROM that maps needs or Is trying to use. As I said, on stock it's fine for me so that suggests there's something missing in the SimpleRom.

Unfortunately I already wrote also with stock and unrooted ROM gmaps ran slowly, but ok not a very big issue. Maybe one day I'll find the reason and a solution
I am using N910U exynos ver. and i observed that the google maps app laggy is causing by Note 4's 2k resolution, it seems be the GPU not powerful enough.
If you need smooth experience in google maps, you may try to enable the "Multi window" function, open 2 apps by up and down side in the screen (1. Google maps; 2. Chrome...etc.), then you can feel google maps run smoother than you run it by full screen.

Video stops but audio still plays...s4

I have an s4 running a Google edition custom rom. It's 5.0.1 and has been just fine since I installed the from for maybe almost 2 months now. Recently it has developed a video problem where the video stops about a minute in but the audio still plays. This happens on the local player and streaming apps too. I have searched the web for answers and it seems many ppl have this issue and is not limited to s4 models. The only way to resolve it is a full wipe, but after a few days the problem comes back. Has anyone heard of this and what I can possibly do to stop it. I have tried clearing caches in all settings and gradually uninstalling recent apps but just can't get to the bottom of it. It's sooooooo annoying

[Q] I need a stable non-official ROM for my Galaxy Note 3 (SM-N9005)

I've been using Android KitKat (4.4.4) on my Note 3 but some apps that I really need stopped working. I updated the ROM to the official Lolipop (5.0) but I've been having lots of issues and I'm not in the least happy with it.
I am now considering installing a non-official ROM. However, I need a stable ROM that allows me to use my GPS and Bluetooth without bugs or problems. I need these two features for work. Battery drainage is also a concern. I mainly use my phone for making and receiving calls, checking emails, communicating through Whatsapp and navigation (GPS). I take photos occasionally, I hardly record any videos and never take selfies. I don't game and I don't watch videos on the phone.
Is there a ROM that fits my bill or should I just consider buying a new phone?
