Hi all,
I have a problem ưhen I connect my HTC M8 with an gear s2..
Ít stuck on Connecting to Gear Screen.
My phone can pair easy with S2 but it stuck in Gear manager app.
Can anybody help me?
Tried reinstall Gear app and restart my fone thousand times.
Would like to bump this.
I'm facing the same problem with my Note 4 (910C, 5.1.1, Rooted) and Gear S2 Classic.
Tried every possible solution that comes to my mind. Would really appreciate if someone comes up with a solution

You have to install 3 apk from google play:
1. samsung gear
2. samsung gear plugin
3. samsung accessories service
It works with my Xiaomi Mi4.
I apologize if this has already been addressed, but I looked through 10 different threads and didn't find what I was seeking. This has been a PITA for me.
So I had a Note Edge and went into the store to trade it for a cheaper phone while grabbing a Gear S2. The cheaper phone I grabbed was a Galaxy Core Prime. I did this because I have a Blackberry Priv that I use as my primary. When I started the S2, Milk was already on there, but so was someone else's contacts, messages, numbers, etc., suggesting that it was evidently a restocked item. When I formatted it, Milk disappeared. Now, had I known that one needed a special high-end Samsung phone to even get Milk on the S2, I obviously would have kept my Note for an extra day to do just that. As it stand, the S2 works perfectly with the Priv, but it cannot access the Milk Companion in the Galaxy Apps Store. My Galaxy Tab S doesn't connect with gear at all, and the Galaxy Core Prime has access to all of the relevant apps but doesn't meet the requirements to connect to the S2.
Does anyone have any solutions or suggestions for getting the Milk app on my S2? I've not been able to find a WGT file for the life of me, and I'm half-tempted to root the Prime so that I can access the Galaxy Apps Store companion file, as I suspect that's the necessary widget. If there’s not a simpler solution though, I might try to go to a Samsung Kiosk or a carrier's store to see if they won't let me temporarily pair the S2 with a sufficient Samsung phone to grant me Milk access. I've got 2gb of data for this watch and it'd be nice to come close to using it.
Hindsight...
Does anyone have a Milk WGT file they can upload?

This please.
What's new and will the firmware R732XXU2CPC5 support the iPhone?
http://www.sammobile.com/2016/03/31/samsung-gear-s2-gets-another-software-update/
Brings the same features as R732XXU2CPB7, and I've just tested, it does NOT support the iPhone.
Anyway to download the firmware for wireless odin? I can't update through gear manager since downgrading to use with an iPhone? I got a s7 edge just for this and I'm stuck on "your Gear has been modified and cannot be updated". Thanks
I have not seen the first one. My Gear S2 sport is on R720XXU2BPA4

Updated to CPC5 here in Canada (west coast) on 11 Apr 16. New auto brightness and airplane mode. Maybe more. Will test as time permits.
Received CPC5 update on Gear S2 Classic (wifi) today in Virginia/USA.
I initiated the update manually, so don't know when it actually became available....
Does anyone have the ODIN Flashable Package for this R732XXU2CPC5 Update ?
Got the R732XXU2CPC5 around 2:00 am today by manually checking for update. I'm in Northern VA
I got mine last night by manually updating. I'm in Georgia.
I installed Samsung gear app on iphone and it says NO GEAR DEVICES. App says to update gear software. My version software on samsung gear s2 is: R720XXU2BOKK. Version: KNOX. I will try to update it with a samsung mobile and then I will come back to the iphone and try it.
Just to give more information, my girfriend has a Samsung gear s2 too and she has version software: R720XXU2AOJ3. Version: KNOXX. She is able to pair the iphone with her samsung gear s2 without the application, just as a bluetooth device. I was able to do it as well but I made a big mistake of pairing it with a samsung mobile and I updated the software of the samsung gear s2, then came back to my iphone and the Iphone didn't find samsung gear S2.
Still doesn't fix the "always on isn't always on" problem. (When you enable display always on, it goes completely blank after a while and needs a button press to get back).
Wow, the auto brighness is effing stupid.
Before, I had always on screen and outside, I could tolerate brightness of 3, and could see al lof my watch faces and notifications.
Now the damn thing is always at its highest and blows through 80% in less than 12 hours.
ANd I dont even check it as often anymore.
Just give me a damn off button for auto brightness, god.

I had this problem, too.
Did you set the Gear S2 already back to factory settings? Afterwards my iPhone found the Gear and started working with the app.

Yes sir! I've done it and now it's working! Thank you !
Having tried manual updates many times it (SM-R732) finally updated automatically today. I don't notice much difference on the auto-brightness, maybe because I have the brightness set pretty low (3)? Still good to have the addition of Flight Mode.
I have ordered a Gear S2 Classic and will get it in a few days. I know I can pair the watch to a non-Samsung phone. I have an HTC One M8. However, is it possible to access the Galaxy store to purchase new faces from a non-Samsung store? Any workaround?
Thanks!
I have a Huawei phone and use the relevant store (from the Gear Manager) without any issue. There may not be any issue for you at all.

Thanks! I understand that I can get free faces on the store, but can you get paid ones? Thanks.
I've done it on my M8 and my HTC 10, so yes.

Thanks for the replies! I received my Gear S2 Classic yesterday and was able to buy a paid watch face, so yes it worked. I had read on several places that only free faces and apps could be downloaded from the Galaxy store but, thankfully, this is not true anymore.
I found that the Samsung Gear Manager app does not always connect properly to the store and I had to reboot my M8 a couple of times but otherwise it does work.
Thanks again to GodzillaMonster and Gamesoul Master for their replies!
This thread can be closed now. Cheers!
So a couple days ago I went into a Verizon store and was looking at smart watches when one of the reps told me that the Galaxy watch works with pixel 3 now. I guess there was an update with one UI that allows the watch to work with other Android phones. So I decided to buy it because it's a sexy watch in my opinion. At first we had trouble getting the watch to activate cellular. But after talking with tech support it works just like an apple watch now. Calls go through the phone and watch at same time with option to answer either. Notifications and emails work perfectly. The screen on this watch is very good. I was also able to get Samsung pay set up on the watch just by using the Galaxy wear app and it installing a Samsung pay plugin for the watch. I just wanted to give an update in case anyone else was thinking about this watch and pairing with pixel 3.
I am using Galaxy s3 from beginning, I mean it's support andriod and iOS out of box. One UI give more user friendly
