Play Service 7.3 update android wear - Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

this latest Play Service 7.3 update says it has ability to dismiss Android Wear notifications. Prior to this update, a connected Android Wear device would put a permanent notification in your notification bar. This might not have bothered some people, but others like a clean notification shade, so being able to swipe it away is handy.
however updating it on my s6 I still can't swipe away the notification , my watch is the gear 2 neo running tizen os I belive is that why ?

That is why. Android Wear and Tizen are two different operating systems.
Unfortunately, the odds of Google Play Services being updated in the future to fix an issue with Tizen notifications probably isn't very high...

By the way, where did you find the update? I haven't seen the 440 version for the S6/S6e, just the 446. Or does 446 work for us? (See the "Notes" section here.)

it did install fine but caused that error

HERE WeGO map out of store

After installing the official Gear Manager for Ios (Iphone), I had to resett my Gear.
Of course all previous apps were deleted. One was HERE WeGo.
After reinstaling all apps I could not find the app HERE WeGo any longer.
Is it out of the store or only as a paid version?

I have the same problem with many apps , i think there is 2 possibility first it's maybe because of iPhone version of gear app and the second one it is maybe depend on region of your watch
but before ios paring, do you paired your watch with Samsung or android device ?
Same issue.

Same exact issue here. Did a reset on the Gear s3 in order to switch from Beta to the officially supported iOS app. After that Here WeGo was gone and not available on the app store any longer.
If I find any solution/answer I will post it here.
Thanks for your post!

Topic is about Here WeGo !
Not about Spotify. Start your own topic please.
Same here, I live in Germany. It seems that the Android version has many more apps in the store including WeGo and the standalone navigation software

It's strange. For in the beta version of the Gear Manager it was available.
Installed it then. But after reset for original Gear Manager lost the App Here WeGo.:crying:

If you try to install most apps on android, they will show up in your iOS device under "My Apps"->"All" and you can install them from there. However, it doesn't work with all apps. And some that install (including navigator) won't work, because they need a companion app on the phone.
I like Here Wego but although I can get the US version off Play, I can only get the European version from Gear.

Latest Update for Samsung Gear S3
HERE WeGo: Latest Update for Samsung Gear S3 gets public transit and companion mode
But is not available for Ios users. Cannot find it !
The app Here wego is only available for Samsung Phones and S3, i cant find it in my LG,
Yes you need Samsung phone to be able to download it. What worked for me was to pair with a Samsung phone download Here Wego take backup of watch and pair up again with my Nexus 6p and do a restore. Now you can find Here Wego from my apps in the app store.

Android Messages no longer sends notifications to s3

I've had a great two weeks receiving text messages through my Gear S3 using Android Messages on my OnePlus 5T. After the watch died, I restarted it and now I do not get a buzz vibration for that SMS app. Other SMS apps work but don't have the features of replies through the watch. Any suggestions?
Thanks!
Uninstall the latest update to Android Messages. Worked for me and another person.
So sorry for the late reply, but would this just be uninstalling the app and installing the lower version apk?
Depends on whether it comes preinstalled on your phone or not. On my pixel xl 2, it only let me uninstall updates. If yours actually uninstalls it, then I guess, yes, do that then find a previous version on apk mirror.

Sooo, there's a new update as of yesterday. Before you uninstall updates, or the app, whatever, you should grab that and see if it fixes things
It doesn't fix anything. I'm having the same issue and using the "uninstall updates" version of the app for now.

Your Gear app should have an update. It fixes these issues.
I just checked and it said I had the latest Gear S3 update. Unless there's an update rolling out now that I might still have to wait for?

My bad, it's the Gear S Plugin that was updated. I'm on version 2.2.03.18031441N
The Android messages app updated today and I'm getting notifications again so maybe all is well within the app.
I have the latest update of Android Messages and Gear S plugin and I’ve never been able to send/receive messages using it.
My phone/watch forces me to use stock Samsung Messages in order to see notifications. Anyway to circumvent this?
(Samsung S8+, Sprint, S3 Frontier)
I downloaded a different messaging app, used it once, then deleted it and my default Google messaging app resumed working on my watch. I am running a Pixel XL, rooted, S3 Classic.
I'm wondering if the phone has something to do with it. On my Honor 8 I used Textra and it worked great with my S3. After I replaced it with a Samsung S9, I can only get message notifications with the Samsung app.

Can no longer reply whatsapp messages

I have been using the Gear S3 Frontier for over a year with no problems. (SMR760-R760XXU2CQL1)
Suddenly, yesterday a notification on the Samsung Gear App appeared and said "Cannot connect to Gear S3", i took a look at the watch and it auto-restarted to factory settings (asking me language and everything just like the first use).
So, i did proceed to reconfigure it again (it was no update, already using Tizen 3.0.0.1 for over two months if i recall correctly), and everything works as before EXCEPT i can no longer reply to Whatsapp messages.
I always had the stock option of replying just as any other text SMS message, but now, when i receive a whatsapp notification and choose reply, it goes to "Check your phone" for replying. Anyone know how to solve this? It works perfectly fine with a normal SMS message though the stock app, is just Whatsapp ones not working.
paired device is a Motorola Moto X Play (XT1563)
Thanks.

Thanks, that solved the Reply problem! i didn´t think it was a whatsapp update issue.
Follow-up question, i used the version 2.18.15 and worked just fine, the problem is it only lasted a couple of hours because the whatsapp app itself forced me to update it saying it was an outdated version (even though i disabled the auto-update from the play store). Anything i can do to avoid this?
Thanks!
the same for me.....?
Downgraded to 2.18.46 and it works without saying outdated version.
Any solution?
Is there a solution to this without having to revert to an older version of WhatsApp? If not, how do i download an old version that will work, ie allow me to reply to messages on Gear?
I've had the same issue appear and unless you down grade your what's app it won't work ..
But I have found a way round it but cost me £1.70 it's a app called chat hub you download it onto watch and phone and I can reply using this also helps with reading multi messages that we used to have the issues with so in my eyes £1.70 well spend hope this helps.
Hey guys, if you want to keep the most recent version of whatsapp and the reply feature, check out W-History on the Samsung App Store. I made the following video to demonstrate the app with the latest version of Whatsapp.

PSA: VOIP Calls (WhatsApp, Viber etc) On Gear S3 Working On Android 10

I recently switched to the Oneplus 7 Pro, updated to Android 10 and to my surprise, the calls made through WhatsApp and other similar apps can now be routed through Gear S3.
I also tested this on Pixel XL running Android 10 and so I assume it should work on all Android 10 devices.
Just wanted to let you guys know in case it hasn't been mentioned already.

Can you tell me how you got your plugin working?? I'm on a Pixel XL and it keeps telling me to check my software and update. I couldn't install from the play store it said my device was incompatible. So I downloaded the app but I get the update message... Any help would be amazing! Can't use my watch at all...

Hmm. Never ran into that issue. Maybe try hiding magisk manager and also using magisk hide for the three apps related to gear S3.
Also, in my case, the apps were available on the play store.
Are you sure you're using the latest apks?
Running Lineage 17 ROM may have been the issue as it was incompatible in the Play Store. Found a solution today figured I'd post it here as this was a top link for my search and hopefully it will help others.
Reset your watch and remove all Samsung related apps from your phone.
Install these two APK's and your back in business
https://www.dropbox.com/s/37untd7w3gkdlzs/gearoplugin_2.2.03.apk?dl=0
https://www.dropbox.com/s/en5dco911boyu17/watchmanager_2.2.27.apk?dl=0
For me, these plugins were incompatible in the Play store and many others I tried did not work. Only these 2 versions got me up and running again, so I figured I'd share them from my DB to hopefully help others.

Question Camera Control

Hi Guys,
Please advise how can I use Samsung CameraCorol app on my Galaxy Watch 4, my mobile device Samsung Galaxy A 71, running Android 13 (OneUI 5) official. Non rooted.
So you don't have a camera app companion in the watch? I do and when I open the camera app in the watch, I can see what the phone's camera is looking at and control it.
Its this what you are looking for? I have the watch 4 and S22 ultra, both updated with last official versions, but this was available from the beginning in UI 4.1.

But it is not available in my watch. I have already installed latest update.
It loads on the watch4 if your phone supports it. More than likely your phone does not support the companion app.
