[Q] S Health and Gear Fit with Galaxy S4 active?

Hello,
I try to get the "S Health" version 3.2 working on my Samsung Galaxy S4 active (GT-I9295) with Android version 4.4.2, because the old version is not supporting my Samsung Gear Fit. I downloaded the health version from:
Update for S Health (3.2.0.0014), Health Service, Group Play (3.0.200)
S Health & Health Service --->
Unpack the zip, Install S Health, Open it (it won't work), Install Health Service and finally re-open S Health.

So I deactivated the original version on the S4 active (pre-installed) and rebooted the mobile phone. Then I installed the S Health and started it. I got a message that the version needs to be updated. The first time I ignored the message and installed the health service, but the software didn't run (message: "S Health was stopped"). Then I tried again. The message popped up again and I pushed OK. But next was an error message "Product not available (4002)". So I installed the Health Service afterwards. But the same result. S Health is not going to run.
The "fitness with gear" is also not running correct. It is not showing the history and the synchronization also doesn't work.
So please does anyone has a solution to get S Health running on a S4 Active?

I can check in a days time. My Girlfriend is running stock GT - i9295 with gear fit and s health

I think the solution for now if you have an s4 active and want your pedometer stats, go back to a 2.1 level of gear manager.
I think Samsung assumed most of their phones had a more compatible version of s health
Media fire links of gear manager:
https://www.mediafire.com/folder/e7h23e12rzesi/Gear_Manager
Uninstalling all the new gear apps from applications, and there are a lot of separate ones now, installing 2.1.14071502, factory resetting gear and reinstalling fitness with gear got me back, but on any relaunch of gear manager attempts to update to the new version. I have an old gear plugin app open in recent apps and can still modify by that...
Samsung really overlooked the s4 active with the new gear manager update.

Hi, this is good news. So there should be a solution. Can you look up what version of "gear fit manager" and "S Health" is installed and also the "Health services"
Thanks
Harald

Gear app is also running on my wife's device, but the history is not working right now. You only can see the data of today.
I got the gear fit running with S Health on my S4 mini, but not on my wife's Samsung S4 active and she is not very satisfied with the situation.

You will need to uninstall the old version before installing the new version and even freezing can sometimes create conflict.
You can try Super WizCyan ROM and install working SHealth 3.2 from the add-ons package.

Sorry... my bad, had forgot to update the link to the add-on package which is now updated, the add-on package also has the gear apps from S5 (not tried as yet, but you can give it a try and let me know )

I haven't seen any more recent posts on this. Does anyone know if there have been any new releases from Samsung or a workaround? My wife and I just picked up a pair of the Gear FIts. Her's works great on her S4. My S4 Active still doesn't work. I cannot get the latest version of Gear Fit Manager or the latest version of S Health and the version of Fitness with Gear I have will not sync with my Samsung account to preserve history.

You MUST NOT deactivate or remove old version.
So, uninstall new one, make old version work, than update from Galaxy Apps.

Just uploaded a new version of the super WizCyan ROM with the addon package.
You could give it a try if you would like to. The ROM is a slimmed TouchWiz stock with only basics & include active display & lockscreen notifications. You can get the latest version of shealth + gear manager from the addons package in post#2

Anyone Using Gear S2 3G with a Tablet?

Unfortunately, Samsung doesn't allow users to install Gear Manager on voice-enabled tablets like the Galaxy Tab S2 (SM-T815). Has anyone tried side loading the Gear Manager app on a tablet and pairing it with their watch? If so, have you encountered any issues?

yes. with sony z3 tablet compact

Gear Fit 2 Won't pair with Galaxy S5 on LineageOS 14.1

Hello,
As it reads in the title I have the Samsung Galaxy SM-G900F with LineageOS 14.1 on it. And I'm trying to pair it with my new Gear Fit 2. I wasn't able to start the Gear Manager App from the PlayStore because of my OS so I edited the build.prop file in my system folder. That helped, but afterwards the Gear Manager App wanted to download the "Gear Fit 2 Plugin" App from the PlayStore which was "not compatible with my device" for some reason. The same thing happened with the Samsung Accessory Manager.
So I downloaded the gear manager stub, as well as Samsung Accessory Manager and Gear Fit Plugin from some link I found on this forum. Now when I try to connect my Gear Fit 2, the Samsung Accessory Manager shuts down and it just trys to connect but it's getting nowhere. I'm so frustrated right now. I even started thinking about switching back to stock firmware on my S5. But I definitely don't want to do that.
Can someone here please help me by explaining what Apps I have to install in what order to get this going? I would be very thankful for the links to those Apps, too.
Thanks,
Pixelloni

It's for an older version if CM, but should hopefully work for you.
By looking at the results, seems to be an issue with all brands of rooted devices having issues with Gear Manager.

Is SPay working on Android 8.0 (oreo)?

Just flashed stock Android O to my pixel xl then rooted. Samsung pay doesn't seem to even start whereas before with root it would start but then say it doesn't work on a rooted device. This would leave me to believe that SPay didn't work yet on Android O. Can anyone offer input on this? Thanks

Was just about to come and ask the same question. I know it was not working at all on the Beta of Android Oreo but I thought it would on the official build but nope, looks like we gotta wait for Samsung to update something...the Spay app or the gear app...dunno.

Is your gear S3 actually working on Android O? When I was on DP4 on my Pixel I could not even connect it to my phone and the gear app wasn't compatible via the play store either

Mine is working on O. I get all my notifications and everything like before, just SPay won't even start.

Same Here cant get Samsung Pay to install on Pixel running Oreo then obviously cant setup on my Frontier

Same here with my Nexus 6P, everything except Spay seems to be working fine.

Joined the Android Beta program last week in order to get the 8.0 OTA on my Pixel without waiting. As others have noted, everything else works fine (mostly) but Samsung Pay doesn't open and delivers a crash dialog when opening the Gear app. Also visiting the Play Store no longer shows the Pay app at all, and going to the Play Store on my PC while logged into my Google account lets me get to the Pay app page, but it's marked "This app is incompatible with your device." So, no way to reinstall. (Also, the Pay app is no longer in the launcher or in the Gear applications list.)
I assumed I was out of luck probably until Samsung releases Oreo on their phones, when I'd expect an 8.0-compatible version of the Gear and Pay apps to be available. HOWEVER, in scrolling through my running apps today on my Pixel, what should I see in the list? SAMSUNG PAY. Running in the background. Well, I thought, what if I just access the Storage page and clear the cache and data and restart it? VOILA! I used my watch (not the phone!) to launch Pay, and it immediately opened the setup dialog on my phone. I was able to sign back into my Samsung Pay account and re-add all my credit cards without any problem, and everything is now working fine.
EXCEPT -- the Pay app still doesn't appear in the Launcher or in the Gear apps list, so I guess it's running in some weird stealth mode. But it's running, which is all I care about. So if SPay isn't working for you after updating to Oreo, try Settings > Apps, find the app in the list, go to Storage, and delete data and cache. Launch Pay from the watch and see if it works.
(Note that I am on the OTA install, which means my phone wasn't wiped to install Oreo and the Pay app was still on the phone. If you flashed from the bootloader and you are installing from scratch I think you're out of luck since there's no way to reinstall Pay just yet.)

I accidentally uninstalled Samsung Gear trying to fix this issue. How can I get the Samsung Gear apk again? Is there any way you can pull the APK (AirDroid makes this very easy) and you can upload it?

Found a solution on Pixel XL using Oreo (OPR6) which is rooted using SuperSU and has SU Hide.
1. Download Samsung Pay for Android Wear
2. Download Samsung Pay framework
3. Install both
4. Hide both in SU Hide (tap each app once)
5. Turn off AdGuard (probably just me) to connect to server
6. add cards and let the cashiers be wowed by the magic of the gear S3
*Edit*- I will add that Samsung Pay doesn't show up in the Samsung Gear app or in the apps listed on the watch (shows SPAY version 0.0.1), but SPAY will open when you use the watch.

Thanks so much but is there any way you can upload the Samsung Gear app itself? The main one? The one for non-Samsung phones? It absolutely refuses to show up in the Google Play Store because I am on 8.0

That's really strange -- I'm on 8.0 and never had any problem seeing the Gear app in the Play Store, only the SPay app. Have you tried accessing the Play Store from your PC while logged into your Google Account? When you do that, the Gear app will always show up -- it will just tell you if it's able to be installed on your device or if your device is incompatible. What does it say?

i'm on pixel but since there's no magisk yet
we can only use suhide but samsung pay still detect root
maybe it's because of busybox but i can't find busybox anywhere
does supersu use busybox? i looked in xbin, system/bin. still nothing

Hi there,
running OmniROM without root, but the Samsung Pay still shows me my phone is rooted. Is there any app to trick the Samsung app? I see you are mentioning SUHIDE, but I don't want to root. Thanks

I believe omnirom has busybox as part of the ROM itself. SPay detects Busybox as root and therefore won't work.

Hi, I have a Pixel XL running Oreo 8.1 DP2 and planning to ditch my Huawei watch for a Gear S3 Classic.
1) Is the compatibility good between Pixel and S3? (Accessing messages on my watch and customizing the watch faces are not big deal for me). Notifications, health tracking are what important for me.
2) Is Samsung Pay working on 8.1? SPay is the main reason I want to switch other than the better battery.
Is it a good idea switching from Android Wear to Tizen if my phone is Google Pixel?
Thanks in advance guys.

FYI, used this tutorial for my Huawei Mate 10 Pro and it worked like a charm! Thanks!!!

OnePlus 6 incompatible with Samsung Pay plugin on Gear S3?

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.

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.
