Hello!
All out of a sudden, since a couple of weeks ago - the Gear S2 and my S7 Edge started hating eachother.
When set alarm rings on the Edge for example, its supposed to show on the Gear S2... which it used to do - but now
nothing appears on the watch and the phone spams "Gear Plugin has stopped" in an endless loop. Most features work perfect but some
stuff is just broken like this.
I tried resetting watch, clearing data of all gear-releated apps on phone and so on, but its still the same...
Yes, my phone is rooted + custom rom, it worked perfect for a good while, but then not, without me changing anything (as far as I'm aware) !
I start to believe a total reset of phone is the only way to fix it. Its so annoying to setup all banking apps etc again...
Just wanted to hear if anyone else had this problem.... + possible solutions :good:

Every time the device pairs, whether its the initial setup, the subsequent connections, resetting the phone, turning on bluetooth... whatever. Every 15 seconds or so I go through a loop - "Connected to Gear S2"... 5 seconds later a popup "Unfortunately, Gear Plugin has stopped."
I've factory reset the watch.
I've rebooted the phone.
I've uninstalled and reinstalled all samsung apps (gear manager, gear plugin, samsung accessory service)
I've factory reset the phone.
The ONLY thing I can think of - the phone is an international Note 5 (SM-N9208, N9208ZTU2AOJ3, 5.1.1), which I purchased for the dual sim, and the watch is a canadian S2 (purchased through Best Buy)... but this makes little sense to me.
Any thoughts?
Happened on Note 4. I completely reset the phone, flashed different ROM, etc. Gear connected. Then I tried restoring apps, Gear Plugin shat the bed again. Something about apps I had installed, screwed it up. And I have no idea which one.
Try to install it on a clean, "just reset" phone. If it works, then you may have an app screwing it up.
Yeah I tried that... did the install on a factory wiped phone. Gear plugin crashed. Ended up returning the s2, got my hundreds back heh.
i have a brand new s4
it does the same thing the hole screan goes like green then gives me the error code imsending it back inwould sayvits cuz the ribon cable isnt conected properly so is cant process what going to the screen thats just a guess
Hi
Since I've woken up I've had trouble logging into the store. It keeps asking me for a password and sometimes says it's wrong, even though it's been reset. If I enter the 'watch faces' menu in the Gear app on my phone, it hangs forever, installing watch faces also fails, they install forever. I have deleted the app, soft reset the watch and reinstalled, still the same problem.
Is anyone else having this today? I've had no issues before with any of this. I'm wondering if it's something at their end. I'm on a standard non-rooted moto x, nothing has been changed since yesterday.
I'm also having problems connecting to the Gear App Store from Gear Manager on my Galaxy S4. It gives me an error that there is "No network connection". Funny, all my other apps get on the network just fine. I have a strong signal on a very fast WiFi network. I guess the "network connection" that is broken is at their server(s).
I'm having trouble too. The gear app seems to work fine until I try to download a watch face or other app. Then I just get a message that day no response, times out. Haven't been able to download from the gear store for 3 days now. I'm on pure nexus....
I have an other issue: totally blank and empty Gear Apps Store. Everything else works fine for me (notifications, S health, settings in Gear app).
I installed Samsung Gear, Gear plugin, Samsung Accessories Service, S Health from Play Market without any problems.

Hi all, I just picked up the lovely S3 Frontier.
When I click "view watch faces" or "view more apps" in the gear app
the Samsung Gear APP, after a quick "loading", displays white screen with error
"{"returnCode":"0","errorCode":"0003","errorMsg":" System Error!-[0003]"}"
for the rest, everything works.
I uninstalled the Gear app, the Gear S Plugins and Samsung Accessory Service. Rebooted the S3.
Reinstalled everything but the error remains.
For the rest, everything works just fine.
I can't find anything googling so any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in Advance!!!

I've no problems so far with my Gear S3 Frontier in combination with my Samsung Galaxy S7Edge...
To what phone are you connected? Probably not a Samsung product?
If not: Gear Apps Store is part of "Galaxy Apps": maybe Galaxy Apps must be installed too on your device? "Samsung Account"?
Hi, mate 9. Everything else is working fine. I'll install galaxy apps, see what that does, thanks.
Fixed it by deleting all Samsung apps cache on the phone. This results in a soft reset on the watch. After re-pairing it works!
I'm having the exact same problem, only for me it doesn't go away after a reset. I've tried resetting all apps, even reinstalling them, resetting the S3, restarting my phone, but nothing seems to work. I can install apps from the watch itself just fine (just the 10 suggestions), but the Gear app just doesn't work.
I did all that after which it worked but I did do something else in between.
I downloaded the galaxy apps apk, from somewhere, ran it but it said no go, only run on Samsung phones.
Maybe that app flipped a bit somewhere, who knows!
I have a similar issue, get a pure white screen on the gear phone app. When I try and load the apps store. Fixed it by resetting watch deleting all the samsung apps, and then reinstalling and re setting everything up. It worked for about a day, and then failed in exactly the same way. I give up with this device, and I shall not be wasting another 30 mins doing the same long-winded process again. Samsung makes nice hardware, but as usual, the software is crud!
I note that Samsung changed the website end of the gear apps store the other day - looks like they fouled it up and have not bothered to fix it yet.
Mine has been working just fine after fixing it and I'm on the gear app store a lot at the moment fooling around with new stuff.
I do agree with you, Samsung is the worst sw developer. Take a look at my 3000 bucks smart tv, it's such a mess!
Mine 'fixed' its self this morning. The white screen is where the app loads content web browser style, they fouled something up server side is my guess. It still fails sometimes, and getting any app to actually install requires several attempts. Pish software.

i just got my Gear S3 and i'm having the same problem how did you guys fixed this?
Thanks in advance
Any fix for this problem???
I had this issue as well. Some apps or watchfaces would install but most wouldn't. I connected phone and watch to home WiFi and everything installed. I have Sprint LG v30+ paired with watch. Over the network, it's hit or miss but on WiFi all seems to work.
recently did the gear app update and since i did the gear s plugin keeps stopping
been onto samsung twice and they just say reset gear and app and bluetooth , this works for an hour or 2 but then crashes again .
Anyone else having this issue , it must be the app ?
in the mean time i am going to delete the new plugin and revert to the previous one if i can
I've been having the same issue for the past few days. I haven't found anything on Google, until I spotted this thread. Any help?

I deleted the plugin and installed a previous version of plugin APK 2.2.03.17061361 , no longer getting the stopped notification but there is a side effect although the watch is connected through BT in the health app it says no gear connected otherwise its fine for the mo , but the gear app wants me to update but i'm reluctant to in case it reverts to the keeps on stopping notification ..................... don't even think samsung know there is an issue with the latest plugin version
Did you find a solution?
I have similar issues.
I'm having the same issue after the recent Tizen 4 update on the Gear S3 Classic and my S8+. It says, "Gear S Plugin has stopped" and I'm not getting any notifications or messages on my watch, it's been this way after two weeks and the updated Gear So Plugin says it's not compatible with my phone (anymore) on the Google Play Store! WTF?! I have reset my watch, cleared the cache, etc with no results. The watch works fine otherwise. What is going on?

I just recently got an iPhone 8+ ( )after being an Android owner for years and initially had no problems with it and my watch. After the IOS 12 update, my phone was having a problem with the battery draining, so I did a complete wipe and reset of it last night. The watch worked fine on 12 before the reset. This morning I tried to install an app and a few watch faces and the Samsung app will not let me. When I hit "install", I get a message on the app saying to "check gear". On the watch, it is asking to connect to a wifi network. I have it set to auto, which is how it has always been. I tried setting it to on all the time, and verified it was connected, but I get the same message when trying to install apps. I tried removing and reinstalling the app, but that made no difference. I really do not want to reset the watch due to the fact that there is no apparent way to backup my watch faces, and I have about 20 of them!
Has anybody else ran into a problem like this?
Never mind! I figured it out. Was just a dumb error om my part!!
