Verizon Note 5 not detected on Gear VR - Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5

Hi guys, not sure if I've posted in the right place.
I have a N920V which I imported from the USA (living in the UK). I bought a Gear VR here hoping that it would work, but when I connect the phone to the Gear VR, it doesnt detect it.
Any ideas as to why?
I am currently still running stock 5.1.1
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

There was an update after launch of the phone that added the Gear VR capability. If you took it off network before it got that update you won't have the required files.

Gear S2 and samsung pay not working

I just recently bought the samsung gear s2 because i wantef samsung pay in my watch. I saw there was an open beta for it. I go into Samsung Gear manager on my phone and yes its it the latest update 2.2.1 and my watch is updated as well, but samsung pay is not there. I saw that the update for samsung pay beta is in the next update past 2.2.1, but it keeps yelling me im in the lastest verson of the app. Its now augest 11th 2016 and the update was in july. I have att service if that makes a difference. Can anyone help or explain why its not there?
Hopefully someone will correct me if I'm wrong but I believe that the Samsung Pay Beta only works with the WiFi versions of the Gear S2 and it isn't currently available for the Cellular versions.

Also you have to have a Samsung phone

The beta is now opened to 3G S2 watch models..... Although I can't get mine working.... Installed fine, loaded cards but fails to work....
I now have this same problem. Samsung pay was working, I updated the watch on 02-12-2017 now pushing the back button and holding does nothing.
At least you got cards to load, what phone are you using. i have the 3G model, and i have tried loading about 6 different cards, i even ask friends that use apple pay with their cards if i can try and load it, and then delete if it does, and cant get it to take a card. And EVERY card i have tried is on the list that it is available to be loaded.
I have the S2 classic Tmobile with Note 5. I've found that Samsung Pay works hit or miss, depending on where you are trying to use it. Not sure if it's specific store's equipment issues or what.

Try processing the transaction as credit instead of entering a PIN. I've found that works much more reliably. I use SPay on my S3 almost exclusively (keeping a physical card only for backup) with success 9 times out of 10.
Edit: I don't know for sure, but parameters set by the financial institution may also impact reliability.

Issues with Note 7 and Samsung Pay for Gear

Got my note 7 today, and went to setup Samsung pay on my gear s2.. it seems like there is a version of the tpk preinstalled that does not get updated when installing the gear s2 Samsung pay app, so when you go to use Samsung pay on the gear s2 it constantly tells you that it needs to update ... hoping it's fixed soon, tried resetting the gear we didn't work
I assume you have the non 3g version of the s2, correct? I have the 3g version but am not able to use Samsung Pay on it yet.

Same issue here. Using At&t note 7 android ver 6.0.1 and the gear s2 classic (non 3g) samsung pay throws an app error.
Error Product does not exist in this store (2316:4004).
This error can be replicated by holding the back key on the gear s2. Samsung pay will prompt you to look at your mobile device and a video begins to play on it. During the video "Update Samsung Pay" appears. When you update it the error is thrown.

Yes, using Wi-Fi variant it was working fine on my s7 edge, not working at all on note 7, just keeps asking me to update. When you look at installed applications on the gear it shows Samsung pay twice, so my best guess is that one is up to date and the other is not, when you go to use it, it's probably checking version on the non updated TPK, then forwards you to the update and says you are already up to date because of the updated version. The solution is most likely to get rid of the old version, but it is not uninstallable
Fixed?
I had this problem as well. I'm on Verizon with Galaxy Note 7 and have a non-3g Bluetooth only classic gear S2. I just opened pay on my watch a few minutes ago, it opened the app on the phone, got the usual update message, so I hit update as I have tried every day since I got the phone last Thursday, and to my surprise, it actually worked this morning. :good: After it was updated, I closed the app on the phone, and re-initiated pay on my watch, and the app on the phone opened and the "Start" option was finally there, and I was able to add my card details. So now the trick will be to see if the pay actually works whenever I try to make a purchase.

Gear s3 frontier

Hello I just picked up a gear s3 frontier and am trying to get it to work on my note 3 with cm14 installed I've tried all of the previous fixes for the s2 and the closest I can get is gear trying to connect but stuck in a Bluetooth pair loop I'm assuming that this is caused by the out dated gear version. I've also tried the play store version but get the modified operating system error. I'm hoping you guys can point me in the right direction. Any help is appreciated.
Thanks

SamsungPay CH getting installed instead of SamsungPay UK

Hi,
I had officially (official Samsung reseller) bought my Galaxy S6 when I was living in Switzerland. I now live in UK.
Today I wanted to setup SPay so I have upgraded to Nougat and automatically Samsung installed the Samsung Pay app on my Galaxy S6 but i cannot for the love of god manage to find how to install it on my Gear S2. the option is simply NOT THERE.
Also I just realised that when I go in the Galaxy Apps it says "SamsunPay CH" ...
I have successfully added a UK card though.
I think this is why in my Gear S2 settings there is no option for Spay... because of the samsung Pay country version..
Can anybody tell me how to manually switch to SamsungPay UK ? Or can anyone give me the UK samsung pay apk I can try install it myself?
thank you

I'm also getting this problem, but I've never been to Switzerland and I've got a UK S7 edge, and UK sim card ?
Would love a UK apk for Samsung Pay.

After searching it appears that clever samsung didn't actually release Samsung Pay for any Gears in the UK.
No ETA announced... this probably means never

I don't care about having it on my S3 frontier at the moment, I can't even get the UK version for my phone!
Spoken to almost every department in samsung support today with no answers.

You can find the apk online somewhere instead of installing the app from playstore.
Do a Google search for:
"SamsungPay.apk UK"
Then go to system settings>security and turn on "allow unknown sources"
Then manually install the app from the apk that you downloaded.

Even if you install the Samsung pay gear manually when you try to lunch it it says "This gear is not compatible"

Change the phone's CSC code to "UK" should be worth a try.

Samsung Pay On Gear S3 Frontirt

Hello,
I live in the UK.
My Note 8 and Gear S3 both I purchased from HongKong. Note 8 bought in October and the Gear a few weeks ago.
Samsung Pay on Note 8 works flawlessly. Set up S-Pay on my Gear S3 Frontier. All cards registered perfectly but refuses to work. The terminal either beeps and or states present card or swipe. Tried Amex and Nationwide Visa but both not working. Then end up paying by S-Pay on Note 8.
I have tried factory resetting the Gear. Then deleting S-Pay from Note 8. Re-installed and registered all the cards on the Gear perfectly. Then reinstalled S-Pay on Note and then registered all the cards perfectly. :crying::crying: Still the same issue. S-Pay just refuses to work on my Frontier Gear S3.
I am in touch with Samsung Customer Services who had asked me to send them the dump log which I have. I am hoping they come back with some explanation.
Any ideas from you guys. Anything else I should try out?
Please help.
Many Thanks
Nilesh
