How do I connect the Samsung Gear 2 Neo to my Nexus 6P?I don't want to use the Android wear port simply because I want to have calls on my watch working. I've installed the Samsung Gear app from the Google Play Store but it doesn't find my device. Please help.?
It has been stated many times all over this forum that it's not possible to synchronize a non samsung MM phone with a gear 2 running tizen. If you want to have calls on your watch you should buy a Samsung, quite simple.

I decompiled the gear manager app from the Google play store and it has a lot of strings about the gear 2. I don't understand why would they even bother about that if they don't want you to connect it to the phone...

I ve got this answer from watchmaker admin :
Apologies - Samsung removed the Companion App for WatchMaker from Galaxy Apps Store.
This was due to Samsung requiring a change in our business model so that we should sell watches on the Samsung platform, as well as on Google and Apple.
We are working closely with Samsung to get this resolved as soon as possible and have already submitted a new version for Samsung to review.
Once the new version is approved, it will work exactly the same as the current version and will not force any additional purchases.

Hi there, it looks like Samsung has not forgotten our beloved Gear S2 yet.
Just received a major update. Gear S2 is now at Tizen 2.3.2.7, software version R732XXU2FRC1.
I see some significant UI style changes and updates in S Health.
do you have a link?

I am afraid not, it was pushed to my phone OTA.
Quite some changes actually, S Health seems to have received a complete overhaul.

Could this update be the reason my watch no longer recognizes my book reader TTS with the music controls as it used to? I'm trying to find some way to get those controls back, as that was a major reason why I purchased the watch in the first place.

I don't know if that's the classic, but if so, I have the same one as you and I got the update. I think everybody got it at the same time regardless of Gear S2 model.
It was supposed to quote the guy with the T-Mobile Gear S2 but I guess not...
My Gear S2 is the Verizon 3G version (R730V) and no update is coming through the Android Gear App yet. I'm using a Verizon MVNO, but I don't know if that would stop it from being accessed.
My current Tizen version is 2.3.2.2.
I think the Gear VR controller functionality could be cool.

I tried it yesterday. It can be useful, but less so if you already have a Gear VR Controller.
The S2 as VR controller is not a device which you can see in the virtual world and use as a laser pointer like the Gear VR Controller. It is more like a wrist replacement of the touchpad on the right side of the Gear VR. So you can use the watch face to swipe, scroll, and tap to select. Besides, you can allocate a function to bezel rotation, like setting the volume.
I keep getting "update failed" when attempting to install it. Anyone else?
Gets to 10% then reboots and says failed. I have tried a factory reset, but still the same.
Here's a watch face I did for my Gear S3 Frontier that I thought I'd share.

Where can we get the Gear Watch S4 watchfaces ? Anybody?

I assume you mean the Galaxy Watch watch faces? You can get them on a Galaxy Watch, or maybe if Samsung includes them in a Tizen 4.0 update for the S3, or if someone finds a way to pull the files from the Galaxy Watch when it's released.
Yes I meen the new Galaxy watch, I like some of them and it would be nice to have them on my gear s3 classic.
So a couple days ago I went into a Verizon store and was looking at smart watches when one of the reps told me that the Galaxy watch works with pixel 3 now. I guess there was an update with one UI that allows the watch to work with other Android phones. So I decided to buy it because it's a sexy watch in my opinion. At first we had trouble getting the watch to activate cellular. But after talking with tech support it works just like an apple watch now. Calls go through the phone and watch at same time with option to answer either. Notifications and emails work perfectly. The screen on this watch is very good. I was also able to get Samsung pay set up on the watch just by using the Galaxy wear app and it installing a Samsung pay plugin for the watch. I just wanted to give an update in case anyone else was thinking about this watch and pairing with pixel 3.
I am using Galaxy s3 from beginning, I mean it's support andriod and iOS out of box. One UI give more user friendly
