gotta buy the new one. The gear vr uses a usb micro port. while the note 7 is usb c
the adapter will not work here.
So now i gotta sell my old one and get the new one.

[Q] Samsung Gear Round

Anyone heard any more info about this watch? Not really sure where to post this question. If this comes out I will hold off on the Gear S and get this 4G LTE smartwatch
Lately rumors have started swirling that like LG, Samsung also has a round smartwatch coming to pair with the Note 4, and to take on the Moto 360 release. SamMobile claims the new round Samsung smartwatch could possibly have a SIM slot for 4G LTE connectivity, and will be available alongside the Note 4. We’ve yet to see any leaks of the device, so will have to wait and see.

And run Tizen like all the others.
If this rumor pans out, I absolutely do NOT want this watch. The "wart" on the gear original watch was horrid looking. I'll keep my Gear 2 for now, hoping someday we'll get apps, or someday Android Wear will support all the extra goodies like phone, gps, camera, etc that Samsung likes to throw in.
I considered the Gear S, but it looks huge.

3g version coming; will it work with non Samsung phones?

The 3G version of this watch is coming in the next 2 weeks or so, and I am unable to find anything about whether or not you can use it with a non samsung phone..
I know the "non 3G" version works with most modern Android phones, and I know it will work with my Nexus 6..
My question is, does any one know for certain if I can use the 3G version, when it comes out, with my Nexus 6, or will the 3G version only work with Samsung phones?
I'm going to call Samsung tomorrow and ask, but I trust the folks here on XDA to know alot more than someone on their CS line will
Thanks!
It works just as the Bluetooth version does with compatible other phones.
do you have a link to the owners manual for the 3G model?
thanks
will it be able to connect blue tooth . i am on cricket wireless so not sure if i can add it to my plan
Anyone hear on the tmobile version tmobile hasn't sent the email out or Twitter or anyone from tmo will confirm
supposedly, you can call in today and order it, and stores in my area,(chicagoland) all say they should have them to sell Monday
Finely found a store that had it after 3 stores I got it
I called at least 6 stores, and none had it in suburban chicago; a couple said they should have them Monday, but I played it safe and ordered over the phone from T-Mo
Free over night shipping, and, you get 20 days to decide if you want to return it, vs 14 days when you buy in store..
I can wait one more day, at this point!
Yea messed up my account tho they cancelled my gear s for some reason I didn't want to add the new s2 yet because my gear s is at samsung for repair and didn't know if I wanted to keep the service on the gear s or s2 yet also they still charge u 15 for a sim when there's not even a sim in the damn thing
Works with some voice connection issues on N6P with Verizon.

Samsung pay on S2

Does anyone have it working or know what's going on with it. All I have found was it was supposed to be working in November. Any ideas on it?

I emailed Samsung about it a month ago and they said first quarter of 2016. So as late as March 2016.

Yeah, probably will come enabled on Gear S3 and never on S2, so you have to buy a Gear S3. This is Samsung's marketing strategy.
Just bought the gear s2 classic T-Mobile and it has tap and pay pre-installed is this what you guys are asking about

Where are you located? I don't have that on my non-classic WiFi S2. Maybe it is only for the 3g models for now? I'm in the US outside of DC
I'm in Houston Texas. I noticed the software version is slightly different from the original gear s2

Are you able to use your T-mobile s2 classic to make purchases at NFC enabled terminals? We all have a "tap and pay" option listed under settings/connections/nfc, but so far, it does not work because Samsung has yet to enable the service with a firmware update (which it originally said would be enabled last fall, but then announced it had been pushed back to some time in 2016).
If yours actually works to buy things, that would be big news.
This is what it says so I guess not.

Gear S3 on Galaxy S4

I am thinking about turning in my note 7 in fear that Best Buy will set a deadline on full refunds for the phone. In order to keep me from being sad when doing so I'm gonna switch it for a gear s3. I was curious will Samsung pay on the watch work with the Galaxy S4 and all the other features along with it?

You should be able to use all the features as far as I'm aware.

If a Note 3 works, I think the GS4 should as well.

I thought the S6 was the oldest phone that would work with Samsung pay? At least so it states on their site

For Samsung Pay on the Gear S3, I have verified that a Note 3 & Note 4 both work. Samsung Pay on the phone only, a GS6 & later is required.

Thank you for your reply. Looked it up on their website seems like it shouldn't be a problem. Put it on order can't wait to get it

Still No Samsung Pay For UK

Hoped it might be announced at their 'unpacked' event today - nope, nothing, nada.
http://www.samsung.com/uk/samsung-pay/
Not in India, either. Got the new update today, but Samsung Pay is missing. Connected with customer support, and it seems it is still under technical review. For now, it has been enabled only for a few select phones.
Yeah, this sucks. It was the prime reason I bought this watch really and not even a hint of when we might see it in the UK yet.
Not in Sweden either. But i did talk to Samsung and they did say it will come in about 2 weeks. they have just annonced samsung pay beta in Sweden about 2 weeks agoo.
Since i dont have a samsung phone, i will w8 for the S pay in my S3.
Remains to be seen whether this will just be for phones or for the watch as well. We already know that for Europe, MST wont be supported as it relies on a depricated technology.

According to this article April 28th is the day Samsung Pay should launch in the UK....... Fingers crossed!

No one knows for sure other than Samsung. Latest rumour I've seen now says 16th May is the UK launch date. I won't be holding my breath!
Useless barstuards!

Obviously 28th April as I played above wasn't the day for us in the UK, but the same site are now saying 16th May. I'm not sure if it can be trusted though

Samsung Pay has finally launched in the UK. It's on the Samsung Galaxy apps store now. Hopefully the S3 app is alongside it. I can't check until later.

Lloyds isn't supported by the looks of it so back to waiting for me....
Nothing for S3 unfortunately

No RBS support on the cards either!

I'm so happy, I've been waiting so long for Samsung Pay to be released in the UK so i can use my Gear S3 to it's fullest extent. Setup Samsung Pay on my S8, check. Update my Gear Manager software, check. Oh... hang on a minute, it still doesn't work on the S3 in the UK.
aaaaarrrghhhh FFS !!!!!!!!
'Useless barstuards' is an understatement!
Same in Spain... I bought exclusively the S3 for Samsung Pay as they advertised it like it had built in Samsung Pay, and nope... I also have the Gear S2 and I had the same problem, they never released it.
Just had a chat with one of their 'support' drones about this... Sometime never is the response, Pretty poor show.
Welcome to Samsung Support. Please allow me a moment to read through your enquiry.

Hi Nigel, how are you today?
13:55
Trying to get samsung pay on my gear S3 watch. Samsung pay launched in the UK on the 16th - cant find it for the watch.
13:55
Unfortunately it is not available for any watches I'm afraid.
13:56
The Gear S3 was advertised as compatible with samsung pay. It works with samsung pay in other countries - US, sweeden, Korea etc - why not in the UK?
13:57
It is compatible with the device, but it isn't currently available to be downloaded yet because it hasn't been released to watches yet.
13:57
Can you give me a date when the Gear S3 will work with Samsung Pay in the UK.
13:58
it has been released to watches - eg in the US, Sweeden, , Korea etc etc
13:58
We currently do not have any information on releases yet, however if you want to contact the Samsung Pay department their number is 03307267729.
13:59
It will be released in the UK, it just isn't available yet.
13:59
Probably never then - time to ditch this gear S3 and buy an Android Wear watch then!
13:59
Ok that it is fine. Is there anything else I can help you with today?
14:00
The misinformation in that exchange and the lack of enthusiasm is quite remarkable.
Obviously, since some of us have it (US, here), it has been released for watches. Although the other day it was "declined" at Whole Foods where it worked a few days before. The underlying credit card did work. But I've not had a chance to follow up at another store or even Whole Foods again to see if it was a one-on problem or more routine.
This is poor. The App is released in the UK, the watch is already capable of being used to pay with NFC...so why is it not available to do on the S3 in the UK
Samsucks! You gotta hand it to them...they really know how to shovel that bullsh*t. I bought an S3 here in Canada, and it went back 3 days later.
