My gear 2 and note 4 are paired by Bluetooth. I cannot find my fhone from gear and cannot find my gear from my note gear manager
By the way Bluetooth icon in my gear is gray color but it should be blue while it is paired.

Yup, I am. I've had this problem for at least a couple weeks now. I get the error message just about every 5 minutes or more. My watch displays the standalone symbol at the top. I've factory reset the watch multiple times as well as "disabled" the Gear app on my S7. Since it's a factory app I can't uninstall it.
A couple of the times I factory reset, it's worked, but after a few hours, it stops working again. I didn't have this problem until I updated to the latest version of Android 6.0.1. Which leads me to believe this is an issue with the app not the watch.
I still wear the watch, though I don't know why, as it's basically useless now.

[Q] Gear 2 Neo - Problems / Issues

I had the same issue. To fix this you need to factory reset your watch and set it up again. After that it will work perfectly. Hope this helps.
Same issue
I have been having this same issue. I tried factory reseting the watch without improvement. I also tried clearing the data of my phones s voice app without any luck. Any ideas?
same issue started recently on my gear 2 neo, s voice doesn't work on the watch, just connection failed after a few seconds. reset the watch, didn't restore data, and wipe data and cache on both the Samsung gear app and the s voice app. still no success.
Anyone found any solution for this? I just got m Gear 2 Neo last week and I haven't been able to get it to work. Someone said to do this but I can't find it anywhere:
Browse your purchased apps in the Galaxy Apps app. See if there's something called S Voice Provider. It is listed under "All", under "Purchased". Go ahead and install it. Got done reason it will disappear from this list afterwards, I couldn't find it again to confirm the exact name, but s voice now works like a charm from the Gear 2.
I don't see anything even close to that in my galaxy apps. I just uninstalled and reinstalled Gear Manager and still nothing.
Update:
Looked in my apps and the saproviders is installed and started. Still getting connecting and then connection failed.

I am seeing the same issue. Except my Gear 2 Neo is on a latter version R381XXU0BOA2.
This seems to be an issue with Lollipop 5.1.1 on the Note 4 and Gear Manager 2.2.15092142. I paired my Gear 2 Neo with my Note 10.1 (2014) running 4.4.2 and S Voice worked as expected. I have seen in other forums that S Voice works on an S6 running Lollipop 5.0.
Which version of Gear manager are you running? Which version of Android is on your Note 4?
Any others having the same issue running Lollipop 5.1.1?

I was comparing installed apks between my Note 4 and my Note 10.1 (2014) in Application Manager (on Note 10.1Settings -> General -> Application manager -> All) and (on Note 4 10.1Settings -> Applications -> Application manager -> All).
Missing on my Note 4 was svoiceprovider. I backed up the Note 10.1svoiceprovider app using ES File Explorer. Sent the file to my Note 4, installed the app on my Note 4.
If anyone needs the svoiceprovider.apk let me know.

I have 5.1.1 and the Gear Manager is 2.2.15111841_2.2.02.15071741. I was able to hook it up to my Note Pro 12.2 and S Voice worked fine. Everyone keeps talking about not having the saproviders on their phone but I have always had it, so that isn't my problem. I did have it originally connect to a Fit Gear, so maybe that is screwing it up.

I could kiss you. I compared my tablet with my phone and I was missing savoiceprovider. I know I had it before but when I deleted everything earlier it didn't reinstall. I installed it and it works now. I am thrilled! My other version must have been corrupted or old.
Thanks you!
Is the svoiceprovider different from the saprovider? If so can I get the svoiceprovider apk from ya?

I have exactly the same problem, very disappointing. Only received the watch for Christmas and straightaway I hit a problem.
I'm sorry to of your problems, I too received mine for christmas this morning. Have root s5 and connect right away and updated not a single problem so far.( Other not enough apps for my likeing )
Going to ask the obvious, have you tried reseting the watch ?
Hi all,
Mine was just the same issue, after reading a bit you should reset the watch after updating and the phone too. But disconnect and erase the connection phone <-> watch too. After new pairing all was ok.

Can you explain steps required? I have same issue after gear manager update. I would like not to hard reset my phone. I'm on non-rooted Note 4 with lollipop 5.1.1. It used to work excellent until last update.
Sent from my SM-N910T using XDA Free mobile app
I did back track latest apps installs and updates on my phone and I wonder if Gear Manager is main source of the problem.
Night before I discovered that gear manager stopped working correctly, I did mandatory update for few of Oculus apps for my Gear VR.
My question is: do people with Gear Manager problem have any Oculus apps installed on their phones?

Problem Using Gear App When Connected to Watch

I am hoping someone can help. I just got a new BT Frontier yesterday and connected it to my phone. However, whenever BT is on and I try to go into the Gear App it immediately switches over to the update screen from the Samsung App. When I try to go back it keeps going to this screen. The only way I can keep the Gear app open is to turn off BT. I have a Galaxy S7 on Verizon running the beta version of Nougat so I'm wondering if this is causing issues. I also tried clearing the cache, resetting the watch but nothing helps.
Thanks for any help.

I had this exact same problem. I have a Verizon S7 Edge on the Nougat beta...this aggravated the **** out of me. I just found the fix less than 2 minutes ago.
First open your "Galaxy Apps" app
Then go to the top right to the "..."
Then select "Settings"
Then scroll down and select "About Galaxy Apps"
Within this screen you can do an update. Once the update was complete I didn't experience this problem anymore. Hope this helps :good:

Samsung gear s3 frontier and xiaomi Mi5

Hello I have question, do you know if Mi 5 is compatible with the smartwatch Samsung s 3?
I am going to buy but I am not sure if both of them are working together.

Yes i have both of them and they are working well.
Hi there,
just new to this forums.
Do you use the standard Samsung Software to connect your Gear S3 to the phone or some third party tools?
I tried to sync a Gear fit2 with the samsung gear software.. The devices connect but no software downloads can be done. Maybe this has something to do with missing software rights?
Thank you for a quick heads up.

I have both, and they work fine until I move away from my phone and they disconnect. My issue is that when I go back close to my phone, sometimes they don't reconnect automatically.
Not sure if it's something I need to change in phone's settings?
It wasn't happening with the watch and my old Galaxy S4...
The reconnection issue is something that I had using my S3 note and the old Gear1.
Was fixed with the newest software versions.
Which software components do you use connectiong your Gear S3 to the Mi5?

I believe they are the latest?
I have been using the pair for couple of weeks. It works fine for call and notification but it sometimes randomly disconnected even they sat next to each other. I'm trying to setup permission for those app/plugin. Nothing seems to work (still keeping disconnected) any suggestions?

Hi,
I solved my issue with upgrading my OS version to 6.0.1 (Marshmallow). I am using Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 and experienced all issues you mentioned prior upgrading.
best of luck

No notifications

Since I updated my Pixel to Android 8.0 Oreo about a month ago, I don't get any notifications any more. The only thing that seems to be working is phone calls which I can see on my gear.
What I've tried to do, to solve it:
- Cleared data for the Gear app
- Uninstalled and reinstalled all Samsung applications
- Factory reset the Gear
- Checked that the Gear app has permission to notifications
- Checked that the Gear has the latest firmware
- Rebooted my Pixel
- Tried to connect my Gear S3 to a Huawei phone running Android 7.0 (notifications worked)
- Contacted Google that said the issue probably is because the Samsung app doesn't support Oreo
- Contacted Samsung that said Google is "probaby right" and I'll have to wait for an firmware update for the Gear which they have no ETA for?
If Google is right, everyone with Oreo should have this problem? Or atleast someone else? Is that the case?
I have Oreo beta on my Nokia 8 and have no problems which weren't present on nougat.
No issues with notifications.
Sent from my TA-1012 using XDA-Developers Legacy app
Ok, does anyone else have any idea of what can be the issue for me?
I'm having the same issue. Also with my pixel. Tried everything you have also done. Almost at the stage I'm about to switch back to my old moto 360 until they release a patch. Not being able to receive any type of notification is a deal breaker for me.
have you tried to clean cache, stop the Bluetooth process on pixel and run it again?
Anybody got solution for this?
I upgraded OnePlus 3 to Oreo and notifications stopped showing on Gear.
Soon afterwards I upgraded Gear to Tizen 3 but that didi't solve problem.
The new software update that was released a few days ago solved the issue for me.
Exactly the same problems and frustrations
In short, have tried all the same actions as set out by yourself. No Gear 3 notifications started with Pixel upgrade to Android 8.0. Like others have stated here, makes wearing and relying on Gear watch very marginal. I bought Gear watch to pickup notifications when doing outdoors, relatively hands free sporting activities.
Everyone: please keep THIS discussion thread alive in search of eventual solution. Thanks. John, Sydney Australia
Same issues
I recently purchased a gear s3 Frontier watch, after much researching, it was the one that most fit my wants.
It is paired with my Pixel phone and for the first 3 or 4 days it worked great but now I don't receive any notifications at all except for Samsung Health... Notifications are all turned on but nothing comes through?
It seemed to have started with the Tizen 3.0 update. But could't say if it was immediately after or a day or two later. I've done multiple resets but nada.
Phone calls do come through to the watch but my phone doesn't ring anymore when the watch is connected..
No settings were changed on the watch or the phone app.. One day it worked fine, the next day, everything quit...
This is very disappointing... these notifications were the reason I wanted a smart watch in the first place.
Any idea whats going on?
The watch is SM-R760 running Tizen 3.0.0.1 version R760XXU2CQL1
Knox 2.2.0
Know Tizen 2.2.0
SE for Tizen 1.0.0
TIMA 3.0.0
Pixel Phone on Android 8.1.0
Snapdragon S8 on nougat with a similar problem. My notifications will disable themselves and the switch to turn them back on will be grayed out and unselectable. Only way to get them to work again is by rebooting the watch and the phone, but it will only work for a few hours until it's broken again.
I have a similar problem with my Oneplus 3.
Evertyhing worked fine until I updated my phone to OxygenOS 5.0.3 Android 8.0.0. Since then the Gear S3 doesn't receive any notification. The only one are phone calls.
The settings for notifications are on (in the Gear App and OS settings unchanged). Resetting the watch didn't change anything. Round about 2 times a day the gear looses the bluetooth connection for ~30 seconds which is new as well.
Resetting the phone is no option.
Any ideas or new information about this problem?

I reinstalled the Gear app, repaired and resetted the watch which didn't change anything.
Though I forget about the Samsung Accessory Service app. After reinstalling this, rebooting the phone and repairing the watch the notifitications are working again.
In the matter of connection loss I can't tell not yet.

I know this is an old thread, but I stopped getting notifications on my Oneplus 7 Pro - Android 10. I had to turn off battery optimization for the three Samsung apps - Galaxy Wear, Gear Plug in and Samsung Accessory Service. I now have notifications back.
