I've had this problem for a week now. My smartwatch 2 doesn't connect to my HTC One. Most of the time I try to connect, it displays the 'Download Smart Connect app to your phone' icon on the watch. The only way I actually do connect is uninstall, then reinstall the Smart Connect app on my phone, which reboots the watch and repairs the watch. The process repeats on the next connect. Any ideas?
Have you installed custom frameworks? Is original or a custom rom?

Yup same scenario here. It previously worked fine on stock 4.1.2 but after upgrading to 4.3 the pairing started going haywire.

Same by me on SGNote2. Made a script workaround in Tasker and launching it in place of Smart Connect every time - killing Smart Connect and restarting it again, then is pairing successful! No need to reinstall this app.

Can I have a detailed explanation on what you did. It seems 4.3 is the actual culprit.

Custom ROM - ViperOne
It was working fine on the same ROM though.
The problem is caused by the latest version of Sonys SmartConnect software.
Uninstall it, install the previous version (attached) and don`t let it auto update.
When Sony get their fingers out and sort this, you can turn auto update back on.

I know Samsung doesn't post changelogs for their new updates but I just wanted to make a thread for the MG3 update and maybe future updates to point out the changes in the firmware. If you notice any changes, please post it here and I will give it a "thanks" if I can confirm that it's real and I'll put it in the OP (along with your name of course).

WIFI Broken after MG3 firmware update
Just went ahead with my S4 (i9505) MG3 firmware update via Kies (the firmware update version is PDA:MGA / PHONE:MGA / CSC:MG3 (BTU)), everything installed without a hitch, phone rebooted, AND WIFI IS NOW BROKEN!! Meaning the Quick Toggle remains grayed-out even if you press it to turn it on, and going into System Settings and trying to turn on WiFi from there also doesn't work-- the WiFi is simply not turning on! This is a MASSIVE bug which is utterly unacceptable being in an OEM update!!
I've since restored my NANDroid backup to go back to i9505XXUAMDM. At least the WiFi works in that firmware. Yeesh.

I had the wi-fi bug a few days after I flashed the MG3 firmware (wi-fi toggle, both on settings and quick settings are greyed out and stuck at connecting). If you're running the international version you should flash the latest modem.

As for the Talk back issue you are talking about I have no idea what you are talking about. I have never experienced such thing. Maybe it is because i have my Talkback setting to off.

Ok.. Le me explain a little. I installed No Led and it requires accesabilty option in order to function. When i let it have accesability it turns activates the Talkback function besides of the phone having the Talback function unticked... Heard that also other applications haves the same issue so it is a 4.2.2 issue....

That means that so far I have not had the need to install an app that needs accessibility which then turns on the talkback function.

So for a while I was soft bricked waiting for the FXZ for 12.15.15, obviously it was released and my phone is up and running great but one thing I've noticed is when I try to install a 3rd party app I am not able to click install (I have unknown source's enabled duh) but it's so weird... I click the app, it opens and when I try to click install it just doesn't register period. I can click the cancel button but not install...I tried installing the latest safe strap to make a back up but am unable...I also tried installing the Google Search Launcher I extracted from a 4.4 ROM and the same issue occurs...any idea what this is? Or what I can do?...I may try restoring stock again cause this has never happened before,ever. Any insight would be great.

I've seen this before and for my device it was because I was running the app Lux, which is an autodimming screen effect. The way Lux worked was shooting a semi-transparent image over the whole screen. Android has a built-in feature that prevents apps from auto-clicking the install button by preventing apps that are "above" the install screen from disallowing them to auto-install things. Do you have any apps that are running in some sort of overlay?
Thank you Sir, I am actually running greenified which is just like this lux app your talking about, good look.... I had a feeling it was something I had installed, I'll uninstall and see if it works

Hello guys,
Very frequently when there are several apps to update on play store, nothing happens and I have to stop then start the update all process again. Then it updates two or so, then nothing again and I have to stop and press update all again...
Anyone know what's going on?
Im on Stock, rooted 4.4.2.
Cheers
Mark.
I too have this problem, although it happened before upgrading to 4.2.2 as well.
Reboot your device, fixed for me.

I will try next time I'm updating... but my phone has been rebooted a few times since 4.4.2, so it's not like it has just been set up. Also the issue was also there with 4.4.1 and maybe even 4.4.0
cheers

Hi
I don't see a way to "unlink" my google account. I have 3 on my phone, and the only options in phone settings is to deselect sync (tick box) for specific items or to remove the account.
what do you mean?

I have had the issue where I hit update all and then I don't hit the accept new changes that the application is requesting. It doesn't seem to show unless you stop and restart the download.
I'm on the latest leaked lollipop rom for s4 and upon reboot my gear 2 loses notification access. Has anyone else experienced this? Hard resets, factory resets and updates of both phone and gear don't seem to make a difference.

Have you tried going in Security/notification access and allowing gear manager ? I don't have lollipop but I just thought about this...
Yes, in the lollipop rom I'm using the notification access is under sounds and notifications, and it's enabled, until I reboot. Then it loses access.

Have you also tried wiping cache partition and Dalvik cache ?
Indeed, plenty of times,including full wipes of both phone and gear, to no avail. I'll keep trying out solutions and eventually I'll get one.

Well you seem to know what you are talking about so I would say that you ROM seems not to be compatible with the G2, I have no formal knowledge though
I'm beginning to suspect as much. I'll flash another version of LL at home later and see if it's the rom I'm using at the moment (which is giving me umpteen reboots and seems to act like a thermal power plant lol)
*update* flashed different kernel and even though the permission on reboot still occurs, I now get notifications, where as before I didn't,and my phone is cool. I'll post my findings when I flash a new rom.
Same issue here.
I9505 using leaked lollipop. Original Gear running latest OTA Tizen.
Disconnect reconnect and turning off blyeooth does not trigger the issues but full reboot does.
Have tried latest Gear Manager APK leaked from S6 but did not fix.
Hoping for fix soon as its very annoying
Yep, Im pretty much on the same boat as you, latest gear OTA, using latest lollipop leak also, with exactly the same gear manager and issue. I'll certainly keep at it and post a solution, if I find one, here.
By the way, is Svoice working on your gear?

Hello,
I flashed the last official lollipop touchwiz rom on my GT-I9505.
I have the same problem: After reboot the settings for notification access are lost, only the "glanceview mk" has access.
I have to reenable all other checkboxes (eg. "Tasker", "Tesla Unread",...) until next reboot...
Because I have no root, do you have other solutions?
Regards,
Alexander
same issue for me.
i noticed that happens after rooting my galaxy s4.
i tried reboot the phone before rooting and the permission for gear manager remain.
(sorry for the english)
Regards
Fabio
spam, delete
It happened me the same on note 4 lollipop. I fixed it disabling talkback.Apk
Check what applications remain turn on in the notification access after reboot, once you know them disable them throw application manager, and after that turn on gear manager as notification.

today was a similar situation.
I decided as follows: turn off S3, reboot phone (S7edge), turn on S3, reconnect to phone and check update for S Health from Gear Manager on phone.
Resolved
Found the problem.
Installed version was more updated of the one on the store.
Don't ask me why.
Today is came out a newer version and everything works
