I rooted and removed some bloatware from my s4 and I think something may have taken away Samsung billing in the process. I can download free apps but if I try to download a paid app it tells me "Samsung Billing will be downloaded and installed from Samsung GALAXY Apps to complete this purchase" followed by "Error. Product does not exist in this store. (4002)" I'd like to avoid having to reflash the phone if I can avoid it so does anybody know if it's possible to simply replace a lib file or download Samsung Billing as an apk?
Not rooted but same problem
If anyone could shed some light on this I would be very grateful. I have the Note 3 trying to buy apps for the Gear 2. I get the same error. Anyone?
I have fixed the issue in mine by reinstalling some previously purchased apps. It redownloaded Samsung billing of its own accord when I did without an error this time.

I just bought my GN5 and noticed that the Galaxy app store is missing. I had it on my GS6 edge. I've searched all over the web looking for the apk but can't find a download link. Anybody else missing the galaxy app store?
It's a widget now, galaxy essentials I think. You can access galaxy apps from there.
Was a common issue for a while. When asking Samsung customer support they controlled my phone and could only way to access it through the gifts widget...... The new phones have it normally now. But the place we had to get it before was app.samsung.com or try this http://s000.tinyupload.com/index.php?file_id=11453714992468383350

Samsung Apps
You can acces Samsung Apps through:
Camera > Mode > Download
Finally found the link where you can download the official app. Now I can keep up with my samsung app updates. [emoji2]

Why can I see paid apps in the store only by using a Samsung phone?
Anybody? And will Samsung change that soon?
I have the same problem with my Oneplus 2. Hope anybody can help.

Got the same problem, with HTC One M9 + Gear s2...
The reason is, that the Samsung App Store has an own payment method instead of goole play store's method...
At the moment, you cant pay for samsung app on a non-samsung device, so it doesnt listing the paid apps, only the free ones...
BUT: today, i've signed in with my accounnt on a samsung mobile device (galaxy 24 mini), paired my watch, paid some apps, installed it.
when i have paired it back again with my M9, the installed apps disappeared (soft reset when pairing a deivce), and the apps that i paid on a samsung device, still doesnt appears on the M9 store
Just an idea, tried it out, but doesnt work
is there any way, to save the app from the watch (when i bought is, and installed it from a samsung device), and re install it (with the saved installer) from the non-samsung device?

I imagine there are technical problems for Samsung to make paid apps open to all, but it can't be an insurmountable problem, and it would be good for consumers and developers if they opened the paid apps to non-Samsung phones. Samsung is a giant corporation and so not particularly easy to contact or persuade, but I wonder if developers started a petition that might help persuade Samsung to fix this situation.
I've got a oneplus one - just wondering if they're are any worthwhile paid apps that I'm missing out on?

It mainly depends on what you want to do with your watch. I bought the app My Notes in Gear. It let's you create notes and task lists on your phone and sync these with your watch. I am also using komoot which is a free app but didn't show in the Gear store with a non Samsung phone. For me it was reason enough to switch the phone...
I am not hundred percent sure. I was having the same issue (not a big deal as I also had a Samsung phone, so I switched). When utilizing a Samsung phone, there are way more free applications and the paid applications are accessible too. Also, I believe the store has a slightly different layout.
I read somewhere that said someone contacted Samsung. They replied saying that they were working on a fix, but the reason was that they weren't able to accept payments (or some other payment issue) on non-Samsung devices.
I am sure it will be fixed soon. Hold tight!
If I connect my gear s2 to a Samsung phone to get access to paid apps and watchfaces and download them to the watch will they still be there when I switch back to my non Samsung phone?
I'm mainly talking about watch faces at this time. It seems like all the good digital ones are hidden to me now.
And maybe ultimately a good thing, but with the most recent Gear app update (for your phone), the layout of the app changed, and I noticed a recommended app at the bottom that wouldn't install. I suspect this app (can't recall which one) was an app that Samsung phone users can install, and the rest of us can't. My theory is this was either an outright error, or may portend non-Samsung phone users eventually getting access to at least more apps, if not paid apps.

no, i've tried this solution.
if you pairing the watch to other device, every time you need to soft reset is (than the installed apps is gone). :crying:
I managed to purchase some watch faces that were previously not available to non Samsung devices. Have Samsung note allowed those with non Samsung phones to buy apps?
I had to register a credit card with them, but it was easy.
Using lion gate watch face at the moment, was £0.98
Seems like a good news for non-Samsung users Which phone are you using?
Seeing paid apps in the gear app store on my LG V10 and have access to prevously bought stuff as well.
Edit: Tested purchasing as well and worked fine.

Were you able to able to register your credit card on Gear App itself or did you have to do it somewhere else online?
I have it paired with a Huawei Mate 7 and can only see free apps with no apparent option to add any credit card details.
Thanks.

I managed to register with the Samsung gear app store via the app. Didn't have to register anywhere else.
I had to do it on my computer. I kept getting error messages on the phone.
In my case it never asks for a credit card. I have even tried creating a new account on a PC. It must be geo locked or something of the sort.

Can you download the gear manager in playstore? In my case it started working with payed apps as i could download the gear manager from playstore. As long i used the app offered here in forum i only got free apps.
Sadly there are still free apps i can't see in store, like ntv, kommot or golfcard.

Hi Javan, I always downloaded the gear manager app from the play store. In the meantime I finally got a reply from Samsung and they basically said that paid apps are not supported in my country (Malta).
My problem is that I don't know at which stage this "country check" takes place.
1) Is it when I am creating the Samsung account? In this case I would be able to use a VPN workaround when creating a new account.
2) Is it when I download the Samsung gear app from the Play store? In this case I will need to root my phone and use a market unlocker.
3) Is it when I am accessing the Tizen store? In this case I have no idea ... it would be too cumbersome to workaround this [emoji22]
One way or another there has to be a workaround, I just want to avoid rooting the phone as much as possible.
If anyone has any ideas or managed to access paid apps in the store from a non-supported country, I would be forever grateful if you can share your solution.

These are the same things I've been thinking about this problem. Did you find any sollution? I cant imagine base on what it takes your location, IP address, google store, or what. What I found out today is that if you loggin samsung store Web, it displays among your info Country: XXXX
Hi guys.
1 week with a gear sport paired with asus zenfone 3 and I can't access any paid apps from Gear app... Just free apps showing to me.
Tried everything, reset, another phone (Nexus 5) and nothing.
Paid apps just show to Samsung phones?
I have an S7 (930F), baseband,AP CP is: G930FXXU1DQ1C and CSC is: G930FPHN1DQI1.
I would like to use Samsung pay in the US with rewards earning.
The Samsung pay framework is currently 2.5.94! and the Samsung Pay app is not installed yet from the Play store.
My question is: for full US Samsung Pay usage including rewards earning, which combination of framework version should I try to get and which version of the Samsung Pay app should I try to get?
Also, what would happen if I just downloaded the newest version of the Samsung Pay app from the app store and tried to use it in the US? Would my nice, old, SP framework number be automatically updated?
For now, I have all automatic updates on the phone turned off for everything including apps and phone software.
My phone did notify me that it wants to install G930FXXU2DRB6, I declined at this time.
Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.
Just got the one plus 6 but can't get the Samsung pay gear plugin to install. Tried to install the Samsung gear and apps via APKs and got error saying this device isn't supported!
Same for anybody else
FIXED: Latest version of samsung pay APK doesn't work.
Downloaded much older version and it worked like a charm:
https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/samsu...-gear-1-5-6306-android-apk-download/download/
You might need to enable "install unknown apps"
You installed the Samsung gear app from the playstore? Are you rooted?
Same issue here. Not rooted. Stock Oxygen OS 5.1.5. Samsung gear app installed from Google Play store and everything seems to be working with the watch, it connects fine and shows notifications and such. Just try to open Samsung Pay on the watch and it says to open the gear app on the phone and install the Samsung Pay plugin. Click Ok and it opens up the gear app on my phone and then get the error as follows.
"Installation failed, try again later"

Im having sort of troubles..
#1 I had to install the apk for Samsung Pay for Gear but 3 times since launch my card was deleted, just like S-Pay was reset
#2 Samsung Pay doesnt show up in the Samsung Gear app on my phone, region restrictions? Beacuse I used the APK?
This is not working with the Oneplus 6 and the new Galaxy Watch ?
Hate to bump an old thread, but considering the OP6T in the next couple of days. Do you still need to use an old APK to get pay to work? And does updating it also break S-Pay? Probably going to stay stock at least for a while on the new phone either way, but it will influence whether I go forward with the OP or go with a Samsung instead...

The problem now is you can't get Samsung wearable app from playstore because it says "device not compatible". However, you can get everything from apkmirror. It all works fine.

That's silly. It all updates fine once installed, pay included?

I honestly am not sure about that. Can't say that I've had an update on the wearable apps that I recall... I do know that with the pay plugin, it updated itself when I started it up.
Ok regarding the question itself - my OP6 Worms l well with my Gear S3.
