Every app I try and download I always get "failed to install app". I have restarted both my phone and watch. I am using a N6 and S2 3G model..
Anyone have any ideas?
Restart watch

Mine is doing the same thing non 3g version
Looks like Samsung is doing something wrong with their store again or no one....maintains the servers when the lunar new year is near. I received at least two emails from customers a day about this issue since about a week ago. I faced the same issues during Christmas. If restarting your watch and phone doesn't help, I suggest that you try downloading the apps again later.
It's not even showing that I have any options to download anything for the app store. Is it the fact that I'm using it on a huawei Mediapad X2? Or what you were talking about with the servers?

At the moment the Gear will not work with Marsmallow.

Yeah hasn't been able to stay connected to Marshmallow phones since October 12. Have to do a reset of S2 every time they go out of range of each other.
A user on Android Central with a Nexus 6 on Marshmallow is reporting that there is a firmware update under About Gear in the Gear app that has fixed the Bluetooth connection issue. I don't have my S2 with me at the moment, so anyone with a Marshmallow phone should check for the Firmware. Please let us know if you're successful in repeatedly reconnecting without having to do a reset every time you go out of range. Thanks!
Just got my Gear S2 updated firmware applied last night and it fixes the issue with the need to reset the device when you loose bluetooth connection. All they need to do for me now is find a way to update the Gear apps on the playstore to accept my Nexus 5X as a legit device so I don't have to sideload it. Things are really looking up.

I'm gonna assume that you've already checked the Play Store again after installing the firmware update, so it is strange that they haven't updated the Gear app on the Play Store.
I can confirm that I have repeatedly been able reconnect my S2 to my Nexus 5 on Marshmallow after I installed the S2 firmware update that was available in the USA in the Gear app under the About Gear settings. I went from firmware version R720XXU2AOIL to R720XXU2AOJ3. I found that even after installing the firmware, I had to do one Light Reset on the S2 before the S2 would reconnect.
So far so good. Have intentionally gone out of range 6 times and reconnected all 6 times. Will report back if situation changes.

The app from play store, from 12th oct (current version that i can see at play store), is not compatible with my phone, nexus 5X, so, i cannot install it.
if the app is not compatible with my phone is for android 6. A firmware update without this app is for nothing

Weird. I'm using a Nexus 5, and maybe because I installed it prior to upgrading my phone to Marshmallow I have access to the Gear app. I can send you the apk if you don't have it. It downloads the Gear Plugin and the Samsung Accessory Service apps, and I couldn't back up those apks (or I don't know how to), so I can't provide those two, but perhaps if you have the Gear apk, it'll trigger downloading those two like it did for me. No idea why the app is compatible with a Nexus 5, but not a 5X.

since Samsung has actually released a firmware update that fixed (so far) the Bluetooth connection issue, I think they will update the Gear app, momentarily. Also, they never certified the 5X or the 6P, since they are brand new. I think this will be sorted out soon enough.
Oh, and there are three apks, not two. Two at first, but they added the Samsung Accessory Service apk afterwards.
yes, 3 files, i have donwload all of them all running...... i will try to test it before buy the watch
Ok, let´s go
I went to a Samsung store, try with a gear s2.
bluetooth pair ok, no problem, like always. From phone or from app
But, when you try to connect from app (i installed 3 apks)... nothing, no way.
Curious on the new update att s8 got yesterday . Channelog says it brought Bixby features (saw that ), security update to May (saw that ),but messaging enhancements ?? I use Android messenger ( for gifs ) .I opened up Samsung messenger and used it but didn't see anything new . Anybody noticed ??

Still no Bixby Voice as far as I can tell... I use stock messages app and didn't see anything exciting there either.

I've only noticed that the performance enhancements seem to be in the negative direction. Phone has been acting more sluggish and is having serious issues with the downloading of new apps/updates from the Play store even after several restarts. I may end up having to wipe it and see if it gets better.
My data got worse .

Performance definitely took a hit, and I can t find a single new feature. Got a couple random reboots as well.
It's just getting worse and worse. Stay away from this update.
Mine did 2 random reboots since latest update as well.

was A SAMSUNG ERROR ON THIER PART. THERES NO UPDATE
Hello,
I just got my pixel 2 xl yesterday. I noticed that the Taobao app is crashing right after startup. I loved this app on my iPhone, since i do a lot of online shopping via this app here in China.
Anyone around who has similar problems, might this be something i can fix somehow. I am just getting back into android, was iPhone user for the past 6 years or so.
Hope you guys have some advise.
Cheers
from which appstore u downloaded the apk??
try from 'wandoujia'
the latest taobao app is a pain in the a**, it drains battery like hell and too much time to load (11.11 is coming so)
thanks for the advise. I tried the download from the wandoujia, but the same problem. Taobao crashes immediately when trying to open it. I heard that the current app version is just not compatible with Oreo 8.0 yet. Maybe they going to fix that with a new update.
Guess i can just wait for a new version and do the 11.11 thing via my computer instead.
Samsung is rolling out the One UI update for the Galaxy Watch, Gear S3 and the Gear Sport with firmware version R800XXU1CSE1, R760XXU2ESE3 and R600XXU1CSE2 respectively over-the-air. It will take some time before the update is available for everyone.
Update :- 27 May 2019

Hi, After this update all my contacts on my Contacts widget are gone and I can only add a handful as the list of contacts is incomplete now? It only shows about a dozen contacts to choose from??? Anyone else having issues with the Contacts Widget (the one that shows 4 contacts) since this update? I have the Frontier Gear S3 LTE from Verizon

The something happened to me after upgrading to Tizen 4.
The solution was to factory default the watch and re sync with the phone.

I turned WiFi off to get the update to pop up on the phone app
To me with AOD off battery life seems much better than before. And usability, speed, look is much better.
I've to try how much it last with aod on
Update:-
Live in PAKISTAN
I don't know if anyone else has noticed this. However for me I've noticed that Netflix, Mario kart tour, and a few other apps can no longer be updated to my device from the Google play store an error now shows saying this app is no longer compatible with your device. Anyone else having this issue?
I'm running 10.1 in the UK L29 O2 network.
Just downloaded the 2 apps you've mentioned with no difficulty.
I don't have this problem [emoji1303]

I have this problem too...
I have the 256gb model from China...
I guess it's the Chinese models having issues with some apps...
I ended up updating those spots through Aptoide...
Yep I have AL00 and found Netflix won't install/update via Play Store... ended up getting latest version from Aptoide as well.
Got the same problem with my AL00 after the 10.1 update. Using Aurora Store for the affected apps.
