Progress

         Since my last post I have made a decent amount of progress on the Samsung Galaxy Gear. I generated text messages, calls, photos, Facebook messages, and tweets. The next step was to pull this data off of the watch. That is where I had a lot of issue. I decided to use ADB to pull the files off the watch. However, without the watch rooted the only files I was able to pull were the ones on the internal SD card. The next step was to root the watch without losing the data.
         I searched for a set of instructions on how to root the watch and thought I found some good instructions. However, there were certain steps left out that caused some setbacks for myself. I wiped the watch clean of data trying to root the watch. I found some better instructions and began re-generating photos, texts, and other data.
         I have successfully rooted the watch using Samsung drivers, Cydia Impactor, Wondershare Mobile Go, and an app called SuperSU. I will do a post on how to do this properly soon. Rooting the device has now allowed me to begin pulling folders from the watch onto my PC. My next step is to begin analyzing the files to find where text messages, call logs, and Facebook messages are stored locally on the device.
