[MOD][PORT] Samsung Gear 360 Manager for all devices [Updated: 21/Jan/21, v1.4.00.4-FW]

Is there a way to keep street view after they take down those servers as well? Would we need to find hosting for the pictures, but would the app app work for creating tours, paths & spheres?. Lastly I am still having trouble with the gallery connecting without that 1st gen wifi password, gonna check 1 place I might have it, that's the only thing not working on an LG v60 thinkq is remote viewing of the camera gallery on the phone without a cable

It's probably looking for a Samsung method, the mod was never really designed to work on Samsung devices as those had official support.

Oh no, how unfortunate
Do you think there is anything that can be done?

If I get the time, I can probably do one last update for the app.

It would of course be extremely appreciated if you could make the cam work with modern Samsung phones !

It would be much appreciated for sure.

Yesterday a miracle happened and my Huawei p30 emui 12 non rooted phone worked with the app perfectly. Even the gallery. I was able to convert several photos even on the phone and use the live view. It eventually stopped working however. Indeed it's buggy software..

Hi - I've had a Gear360 sitting on my desk for a long time and today decided to search for a modded app and found this thread - I have now sucessfully installed the app on my Samsung Galaxy S10 - I can connect to the bluetooth no problem but when I try Live View or gallery it just times out. Using Wifi Direct I did get the Live View and Gallery to work oince - I was able to take and view a pic but as soon as I tried to view a video (that was on the card from years ago) the app crashed.

Android Version 12
Gear 360 Firmware version - R210GLU0ARB2

I'm switching off mobile data altogether as advised by the app.

Is there anything else I can do - I feel like I could be mising something simple!

Should I format the card?

Hi, First of all sorry if this was answered million times but i couldn't find anything on about 20 pages I searched on so my apologize.
I have a Samsung A51 and a 2017 Gear 360 model. I installed (manually or through the app) samsung Accessory and ,whatever app I am installing (1.4.00.4,1.4.009 or even 1.5.00.1) the pairing process is successful and after the acceptance of general conditions the app crashes and it can't open anymore, crashing every time. Only possibility is to uninstall it and start all over again. Has anyone experienced this or a fix to share? Thanks in advance

Wifi Direct with Bin4rys Gear 360 Manager

I have recently got a Huawei mate 20 pro and I installed this software to connect my old gear 360 camera to it. I have got it all working once but now when i have the WiFi Direct option on my phone cant find the camera on WiFi or WiFi Direct but when i turn the option off i can find the camera on WiFi but it still doesn't show up on WiFi Direct. I think it could be because i turned the camera on today and it started pairing again but i accidentally told it to stop. Has anyone got any solutions or ideas why????

The camera will no longer function as we'd like, nor the app. You can mod the crap out of the original app, but without Android 5-9, the OS on any Android device, I have access to, you will no longer be able to: see pictures on your phone from the camera unless you take out the SD card and transfer the files manually, connect to wifi or wifi direct, have a 'free' way to stitch, edit and create 360 tours (you can still take individual spherical pictures from street view for another 4 weeks (end March 2023). The picture will show up on street view as a single blue dot. They will not and no longer be, connected. Unless you know someone at Google, I personally do not know what is coming next for street view. I do know that when Google first announced it was killing street view, Samsung had already stopped supporting this device, thinking about manufacturing newer, better 360 cameras and folded to, not a company, but a country that is now using all this tech to leap frog the rest of the world.

If anyone has gotten the 360 app to function properly, it's not the 360 app anymore. It's their program. Hence all the software companies trying to sell 360 photographers monthly subscriptions to their software or software and camera combo (think matterport and you'll see why the gear 360 is now a novelty historical item). In short, the love of money and power won over the love of artistic creativity and human ingenuity. I can use my 1st gen 2016 gear 360 on my LG v60 thinkq phone (2020~1?) running Android 11, but I can only see files on the camera if using a micro SD card reader to my USB or USB c port/ direct connect camera to computer. Can I make the camera take a picture? Sure! Can I actually do anything with the file once created? Not easily... And they did that intentionally. Hope that helps explain

"What Happened to the Gear 360?". I would like to know what camera and software combos people are currently using, like matterport or Adobe & Roich Theta X, or softwarex & cameraX?

Do stay away from the Insta360, but especially it's software (it's like tiktok, but you're giving them 360° interior and exterior visuals of every photo, anyone takes with the camera, everywhere...

If you or anyone you know owns an insta360 or works with real estate agents/photographers/companies who do that kind of work & they use an Insta360 STOP WORKING WITH THEM IMMEDIATELY! Every picture they take is not only being used for the paid for intent, but because of the software for the camera, the file is also free property to CCP. They are acting as a foreign agent without knowing it!

Have you tried looking at the old video on a laptop? Desktop? Other computer/MicroSD card reader?
I have an LG v60 thinkq phone I got the app to be able to take pictures and video from the camera, I just can't view them on my phone. I have to connect the camera directly to the device I'm going to be using the file on (editing to make a video tour, edit the files, etc...). So don't format the disk if the rest of the storage and files are working. If it's all your old files, even after trying to read the file outside the app, then I'd say yes, possibly a corrupt file or partition. Format it. Since I can't see the files on the camera from my phone on the app after completion of the steps in this thread, I'm thinking it's just the app, not the file, hence the 'check the file outside the app' suggestion. That's the only way (at least with the LG v60 thinkq phone) the camera is even useful to me. I haven't tried tweaking my app build on my Samsung A50 though. Spent too much time trying to get the app to take a picture on this phone, . Literally the app is useless except to make the camera take a picture without you in the frame.

Thank God for all of you. Took too long a Hiatus from programming and developing & feel like I'm relearning everything I grew up learning & watching evolve. Glad the 360 is more than a paperweight again. Just wish I had software to be productive with the files after taking them again. Any suggestions anyone?

I downloaded the recomended version to my Samsung Note 20 but when I tried to install it I get a message about installing unknown apps is disabled and when I press the settings option I cannot figure out how t enable the setting for the download. Anyone know how to fix this?

 

[Rodrigon1]

Agradeço muito sempre a essa comunidade incrível e seus super membros!

Gostaria de saber se existe algum apk modificado pra rodar no Android 13, pois hoje possui um Galaxy Note 20 e o apk que tinha não roda mais depois da atualização. E hoje preciso usar a câmera para trabalho.

 

[admanirv]

Does anyone know why I get no connection try again?

I've got Samsung s22 ultra android 13, connected via Bluetooth but in the app it says not connection try again so never managed to get connect in the app.

Thanks

I use the application on Xiaomi Redmi Note 8T and I have a problem with "live view" and it looks like this. I run "live view" for a while and it redirects me to wifi settings to connect manually or to wifi direct settings. details in the video

sorry for english i am using translator

I came across this site hoping to discover how to use my gear 360 with any of my modern phones, to no avail. But for those of you who do want to keep using your Gear 360 the only reliable method might well be to purchase a used older Samsung phone. I was hoping to be able to use this with my S23 Ultra, and to find a way to get the files onto my Quest device, but I guess that's still an unrealistic dream for now. I still have my Note 8 (and the accompanying Samsung Gear VR) and am still able to fully utilize that phone to use all features of the gear, download the videos onto my phone, and view them in 360 in the VR which is awesome.

They are relatively cheap to get through eBay, and imagine still cheaper than getting a new 360 camera to replace what's otherwise a great device, and it's a great way to view and interact with the content!

Hi,



I have version 2.0.03231 of SAMSUNG's Action Director OEM specifically for the Gear 360




I know Samsung said that in 2024 it will discontinue support for the camera and the action director software

They said that existing installations of the software will continue to operate



My IMPORTANT question is this : How about new installations where a new iPC or reformat is necessary?.



In these cases the activation server needs to see a camera connected to the PC or the camera's serial number or Product Key. Is there a way to bypass the activation server when it's taken offline?



With the activation servers taken offline in 2024 how will one activate their action director software or will it be the end of life for this product? There does not to be a viable alternative to stitch the gear 360's fisheye video

Also, I prefer the PC app then any modded smartphone app that is floating out there. I do have samsung s21 Ultra though

Thnak you,

jeff
