The country that I'm in (Japan) does not have navigator (here maps) available in the galaxy store.
Would someone please post a link or provide the gear s2 app so I can install on the watch to use here maps ??
Thanks
Anyone ???

Thanks for the link but it takes me to the Japanese store
Probably because your using Japanese internet, you can also Google for the apk file! Googling, I found the file but I don't know if I'd trust it

Is the apk for the watch ??? I have Here apps in the J play store but not on the watch
The apk is not for watch, I thought the gear uses another .ext for gear. You might be looking at japan's here map, through their store

ok thanks ! I need the one for the watch but cant find it anywhere on google
No prob, I think you can't find it because it was pre-installed on our gears. Maybe someone knows how to extract it from there...good luck

That would be a big help !!
Have you checked apkmirror.com? Whenever google puts out an update to an app, or any app is updated in stages, normally this site already has it for people to sideload.
What about vpn? Have you tried opening your store via a vpn tunnel? You can set your vpn to other country. Tunnel Bear is a great one, give it a try.

I'm having a bit of trouble finding the most recent update and was wondering if anyone here could help me out, please and thanks
While we're on the topic, is there a way to fool the market into thinking your device is located in another country?

Well you could download it from the market. If the app isnt available in your country then download another app called MarketEnabler. This requires root permissions and with this you can make the Market believe that you are in the USA. In MarketEnabler go to settings list and you can fake any of those providers.
Hope this helps
Btw, if you still cant get it, let me know and ill try and upload the apk.

Thanks! This was very helpful. I know it's not available in my country but I have access to an account. The hardest part is getting the apk. But I've got a hold of it now so thanks again
Hi,
I tried searching both the mighty google as well as this site for instructions.
I just got "fitbit" sports tracker thingy for a present and found out the app isn't available in my country.
..now I have tried the following
- Got a VPN and tried to connect to play store with that on my samsung tablet
- Got a VPN and tried to download it from the web (still shows my machines as something it can't be installed on)
- Got an US amazon account and tried to download the app from there (couldn't without american creditcard, even if free)
- Tried to contact the FitBit guys directly for the installation file (they just suggested I try to reach the american play store for it..)
Help.
If someone would be so kind as to download the free app and share
OR
tell me how the F**k can I get it?
I understand the difficulty on some video/music stuff as it's licensed and such and such.. but for a 100% free app? what's the point!?
A while a go i tried to download some apps from outside the US, and i found an app that could change the country you are in and trick the play store permanently. I cant remember the name of the app now.... but search the google again for a related app... and please share... that is possible...
Was it MarketEnabler that you're thinking of?
Here's an older version of the app.

Thank you.
Does anyone know how to go about updating these.. is the app updatable to a later version without any trickery?
ps. I tried market enabler, but I don't have a clue how to root a device (not sure that I even ought with my skill and talent, or the lack thereof.)
:good:
If you've sideloaded an app, you can't update it automatically. You'll have to download & sideload an updated version.
Some apps have a built-in checker for a new version, and if one is found, it will redirect you to the Play store. But, then you'd have to find and sideload the new one.
Have not had the Gear S3 long but already I get the impression that the watch face choice is maybe not as wide? at least in terms of official replica ones. I am guessing that copyright issues mean that a lot of very nice faces were either removed from the gear store or never made it there in the first place?
I did find the watchland app but I cannot install the gear companion app in the UK (just says not available in my region) From browsing the phone app though there are some nice faces on there and it got me thinking that surely there must be an unofficial repo somewhere of .gwd files? ones that have been removed or did not make the official stores.
Any ideas?

new to this and trying to get watchland and install it where did you get it from
Fingers crossed...
Could not get watchland installed on the S3.
There are lot of nice looking faces in the watchland phone app, would be good if they could be accessed elsewhere.

I have Watchland installed on my S3 just fine. You have to load the companion app from the Samsung app store and then change the face widget and then load. It's kinda cool because I use it to sideload the faces I make with Gear Watch Designer. I also use Mr. Time Maker. It has an online design tool which is a little limited but it has a big repo of designs made by the community. None of the design apps I have used are very powerful but not bad for basic designs.
I tried this app but fails when trying to install the watch app by saying not available to purchase or not available to this location?

With the watchland app, it will download the .gwd files to your phone. Just open those files with Samsung's watch designer and send them to your watch. Nice thing is you can change up the design a bit if you want.
Great idea Any idea where the files are stored on the phone?? - Ignore this - they are under "watches" in the download folder

Are you looking for the Gear Watch Designer program file for the PC or a specific watch face created with the program? (It creates .gwd files.)

It doesn't exist. Just have to get the phone app, download the face you want to your phone, then email the file to yourself to install from your PC on Gear Watch Designer.

You can download the S2 version from their facebook page, https://www.facebook.com/DaragonTech/, it should work for with the S3 if you manage to install it.

Probably need to sign the .wgt file with your certificate which holds your Device Unique ID (DUID).
I wrote the steps at thread, http://forum.xda-developers.com/gear-s3/themes/sideloading-watchland-app-t3517079

You can try the VPN method for accessing spotify app. https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=72692451&postcount=2
Is this app still available for the Gear S3. I can't seem to find it anywhere, regardless of whether I use a VPN or not.
I looked everywhere for this app with no luck so far. Hopefullyg someone here can help me out.
I just bought the gear s2 and for some reason it doesn't come with the HERE Navigator. Everytime I click on th maps it takes me to a download link, but it won't let me download the app. Does anyone have access to the app for download? Thanks for the help
